Chapter 67 The Bully Cries Out in Electricity
The two brothers were pushed into an alley by several thugs. Wang Ergou knew that Fang Dali was definitely going to ask them for money again.
But this money is for my mother's medicine; I absolutely cannot give it to her.
Seeing that the men were about to rob him, Wang Ergou, not knowing where the courage came from, kicked one of the skinny, tall men who looked like a monkey, and before he could react, he ran away.
He could only pray for divine protection, hoping to encounter government officials patrolling the streets, for only then could he and his brother be saved.
In a panic, Wang Ergou ran desperately towards the alley exit, where he happened to run into Bai Mengran, who was walking forward.
"Help! There are thugs robbing us! Please, please save me and my brother! My mother is waiting for me to buy medicine to save her life!"
As Wang Ergou ran and shouted, he saw several thugs chasing after him, and he felt despair.
The paper bag in Bai Mengran's hand was knocked to the ground. She heard the boy shouting for help, and at that moment she didn't care about the bag anymore.
[Host, don't be afraid. With this system around, no one can harm you in the slightest.]
"System, is there anything we can use to deal with bad guys?"
I have a stun gun from the "weapon system." It can randomly shock a cow, causing only intense physical pain without leaving any visible wounds or killing it.
"Good heavens, lend me a hand in an emergency..."
Before Bai Mengran could finish speaking, the stun gun appeared in her hand. Because of the long sleeves of ancient clothing, no one else could see it.
[Host, feel free to use it; what's mine is yours!]
Bai Mengran quickly stopped Wang Ergou, "Wait a minute, I have something here for you to use. Just take it and use it to deal with the bad guys."
Wang Ergou looked at the thin stick blocking his way with surprise, then looked up and saw an astonishingly beautiful face.
Before him stood a girl in flowing green, so exquisite and noble that she seemed otherworldly. For some reason, Wang Ergou felt an inexplicable sense of conviction from the moment she spoke.
"But... I can't beat them at all!"
Wang Ergou looked at the thin stick, hesitating whether he should take it or not.
The two brothers were skinny and frail, unlike those bullies who were all tall and strong.
Fang Dali, in particular, was a big, burly man who was frightening to look at.
"Don't worry, as long as you press the round button on top, no one can touch this stick."
Seeing that he was still standing there in a daze, Bai Mengran shoved the stun gun into his hand. "Don't be afraid, teach them a lesson! Remember, never be soft-hearted towards those who bully you!"
Wang Ergou picked up the stick. Yes, his younger brother was still in their hands, and as the older brother, he had to try his best.
He pressed the round button, raised the stick, and charged at the bully who was chasing after him.
"Let go of my brother! I'll fight you to the death!"
"Hahaha, you think you can take that?"
"With your small frame, I could lift you up with one hand. Come in with us obediently, or your brother will be crippled!"
Fang Dali and his men didn't take Wang Ergou seriously at all. Seeing that there were many people at the alley entrance and they were afraid of attracting the yamen runners, they planned to take him into the alley to deal with him.
Wang Ergou was both afraid and brave. When he saw one of them trying to pull him away, he swung the thin stick in his hand with all his might, but at the same time he closed his eyes tightly in fear.
"Ow ooh..."
Hearing the sound, Wang Ergou opened his eyes, and what he saw left him dumbfounded.
Just moments ago, Wu Mazi had been arrogant and domineering, but now he was lying on his back, convulsing and howling.
Was he really the one who knocked him down?
Before I could think any further, the tall, thin, dark-skinned fourth guy arrived again.
Wang Ergou stabbed him with his stick, and at the moment of contact, he seemed to hear a "sizzling" sound. Then, Hei Laosi cried out "Ah!" and fell down.
Wang Ergou looked at the stick in his hand in surprise. He never expected that this thing would be so useful, able to knock people down without lifting a finger.
The others, seeing how easily the two of them had been taken down, felt something was amiss and exchanged glances, unsure whether they should continue the fight.
"You bunch of useless trash can't even beat a skinny duck, I have to do it myself!"
Fang Dali saw his two men still lying on the ground yelling and screaming, and assumed they were just putting on an act because they couldn't win.
He walked straight over, and just as he was about to make a move, he saw Wang Ergou waving a thin stick in his hand. Fang Dali snorted disdainfully, intending to grab the stick with his bare hands and teach him a lesson.
As soon as his hand touched the stick, he felt a tingling sensation sweep over his entire body, as if countless fine needles were pricking him.
Immediately afterwards, I felt pain all over my body, as if I were being burned by fire.
His body collapsed uncontrollably to the ground, convulsing and shaking.
"Ouch...it hurts...Mommy..."
Seeing Fang Dali fall, Wang Ergou couldn't help but go up and hit him twice more with the stick, muttering, "You bullied us brothers! You robbed us! You scoundrel!"
The two blows sent Fang Dali into a panic. He felt like he was dying of pain all over his body, and his body was uncontrollably numb and tingling.
Tears welled up in his eyes, and he pleaded for mercy intermittently.
"Please...stop it...ah...I'll never do it again...I'll call you Dog Bro, okay..."
He truly never wanted to experience that living hell again.
Someone reported it to the authorities. According to the laws of Anshun, anyone who is the first to report injustice to the authorities is rewarded. So, as soon as the incident happened, someone rushed to report it to the authorities.
At this time, the yamen runners who were patrolling the streets also arrived. With the testimony of the surrounding people, it was these people who fell to the ground who started the fight.
The constables took the three thugs directly to the yamen for interrogation. Even as they were being dragged away, the three who had been hit with electric batons were still crying out in pain.
Although Fang Dali and his gang were tyrannical in the village, they all behaved themselves when they got to the yamen (government office).
With a slam of the gavel, they were all so frightened that they confessed one by one; they were just cowards who bullied the weak and feared the strong.
However, what Fang Dali couldn't understand was what kind of stick Wang Ergou had, and why it had such terrifying power...
"Xiao Chuan, are you alright?"
Seeing the villain being taken away, Wang Ergou immediately found his younger brother Wang Xiaochuan and checked him over to see if he was injured.
"Brother, I'm fine, I'm just worried they might come back."
Although Wang Xiaochuan is only nine years old, he is very sensible. Every time he is bullied, his older brother protects him. He only hopes that he can grow up quickly so that he can also protect his brother and mother.
"Don't worry, Xiao Chuan. Those villains have been taken away by the authorities this time. The law is strict nowadays, and they will definitely receive the punishment they deserve."
Seeing that Bai Mengran, who had helped him earlier, was still there, Wang Ergou quickly took Xiao Chuan's hand and went over with her.
"Thank you so much for your help, Er Gou and my brother will never forget it!"
Wang Ergou returned the stun gun to Bai Mengran, his face full of gratitude. "If it weren't for the stick my benefactor gave me, I probably wouldn't have been able to save the money I gave my mother to save her life today!"
What illness does your mother have?
Bai Mengran had been watching the whole thing from the crowd. She hated bullying the weak the most, which is why she stepped in to help.
Modern school bullying and child abduction are commonplace, which is truly abhorrent.
Now that she's seen it, and since she has the ability now, she won't just sit idly by.
"My mother has contracted tuberculosis. She has a persistent cough and fever, and it's gotten worse over the past few days."
Wang Ergou felt guilty and distressed whenever he mentioned his mother, as his father had taken all the family's money to gamble and support his mistress.
Because he disliked Li for being bedridden due to a long illness, he has recently stopped going home altogether.
Without money for treatment, his mother could only endure the pain...
