C78

In the slums, in front of the formidable power of Shixiong Shang, the group of 'outer demon beast men' who came late at night to stir up trouble were injured and crippled. If it weren't for the fear of giving the slums more trouble with their hands and tails, Shu Xiaoxiao would have pierced them with a needle all by herself long ago, just like last time at the center of the Yellow Crane Society.

Because of the commotion they caused, the residents of the slum were all woken up; by the time they dressed and left the house, their battle was almost over.

"What, what's going on? A thief? "

"What are you playing around with? What else can someone steal from us?"

"Ah, don't say it. It couldn't have been the Hammer family who stole it, right? Their family's wedding today, I'm afraid they've been targeted."

"It's possible. Bring along the young and strong and let's go take a look. If a few thieves who don't know what's good for us get into the Hammer family, we will have the strength to help the Hammer family."

A group of people holding hoes, wooden sticks and the like, gathered in front of Wang Dachui's house in an aggressive manner. However, they discovered that someone had long since kicked the door flying.

"Could it be that a thief actually went in? How preposterous is that? Let's go in and catch the thief."

"That's right, go in and help Big Hammer. We need to be careful not to injure the three children."

"This damn little thief, he won't even let our poor little family go."

A group of people rushed into the room indignantly, only to discover that the people inside had long since disappeared. Moreover, there were traces of people rummaging through boxes everywhere. Everyone's hearts instantly turned cold. Could it be that they came a step too late and the Hammer family was killed?

It was at this time that a carriage that was quickly moving stopped in front of Wang Dachui's house.

When the slum dwellers turned their heads, in the dim light of the street lamps, they saw that the faces of the people driving the carriages were very scary in the dark; he looked around as if he were looking for someone.

A youth among the crowd bravely asked, "This, young hero, what are you looking for?"

The person who came was Shi En. Upon hearing someone's question, he lowered his head and realised that everyone was holding onto a fellow, and staring at him warily to prevent any misunderstandings, Shi En said apologetically: "Don't be scared everyone, my good people are big, I'm here to find my friends."

Not long later, he discovered Shu Xiaoxiao and the others. He stood on the horse carriage and waved, signalling for them to get on. After Shu Xiaoxiao knocked over one of the 'External Devil Human' with a punch, she heard Shi En's call and turned around. She discovered that there were only two people left standing, so she passed them to Shang Qian and the other two and walked towards the carriage.

Under the bright moonlight, Shi En could finally see clearly that the Shu Xiaoxiao tonight was dressed in a set of white clothes with a few patches on it. But even so, it was unable to cover up her alluring figure, and her skin was revealed on her collar.

Shi En's heart suddenly jumped, and she immediately shifted her gaze away, not daring to look. The nearby Shu Xiaoxiao had noticed his gaze, and although the expression on her face was one of joy in her heart.

"Um, Shu Xiaoxiao, why did you change into this outfit today?"

Shu Xiaoxiao got on the carriage, patted his shoulder and said: "I have dressed like this before, do you remember?"

Shi En rubbed his smooth chin, and asked suspiciously: "Really? How come I don't remember. "

Shu Xiaoxiao shook her head. She had indeed worn it before, and had even spent three days with a little boy that she would never forget for the rest of her life. She raised her head to look at Shi En, and gently sighed, and thought to herself: Have you really forgotten about me, my little pauper?

Shi En lowered his head in embarrassment as he saw Shu Xiaoxiao's gaze fall on him. In a split-second, Shi En's gaze came in contact with Shu Xiaoxiao's palm, and under the light of the street lamp, Shi En discovered that there were some calluses on his palm. The skin on the back of his hand was rough to the touch, and had many small holes.

The two of them had known each other for a long time, Shi En could not help but feel his heart ache: "I say you have a cold day and you do not know how to love yourself. A good woman, why do you not love yourself?" While talking, he took out a bottle of ointment from his pocket and gave it to Shu Xiaoxiao, "This is for you, apply it onto your hands when you have nothing else to do, it's good for your skin."

Shu Xiaoxiao shook her head, she wanted to reject him, but Shi En ignored her, directly pulling away her hand, opening the cover of the ointment, before dipping a small ointment onto the back of Shu Xiaoxiao's hand. After the ointment was spread evenly, Shu Xiaoxiao timidly withdrew her hand, her head lowered, thinking of something.

After this action, an inexplicable feeling started to grow in both of their hearts.

Shi En immediately turned his head around and tried to change his target. He spoke to the people in the poverty cave that were a little afraid: "I won't hide it from everyone, but the truth is that my real identity is, the younger cousin of Wang Dachui, who came from the south of South Australia, south of the sand dike, south of the North Bay, south of Shantou, and along the southeast coast of Hainan Island. This time, I came to find my cousin, not only to attend his wedding.

Shi En's mouth was full of volcanic cannons, his face was covered with lies, but no one believed him. On top of that, he had a completely different face, all of them staring at him vigilantly. Fortunately, a few people in the crowd recognized Shu Xiaoxiao, who was in the carriage. They knew that Shu Xiaoxiao was an elder family member of Wang Dachui's, and after hearing what was said, they started to believe him.

An older person walked out. Although he felt it was weird that Wang Dachui had returned to his hometown overnight, this was his family's matter, so he didn't dare to ask too much.

"Then is the sledgehammer coming back? If he comes back, we can help him take care of his house. "

Shi En paused for a moment, then said: "Uncle, my cousin went back this time, he shouldn't be coming back, the elders at home are all worried about him."

The old man sighed. He knew this person. Everyone had to return to their original position with their hands behind their back.

At this time, Shang Qian and Zhu Xiaochang had also finished taking care of the last 'External Demon Beast Human'.

When Shang Qian and Zhu Xiaochang entered the carriage, they discovered that Shu Xiaoxiao was blushing like a daughter-in-law, lowering her head without saying a word. Occasionally, she would look up at the benefactor and immediately lower her head, while Zhu Xiaochang, who was from the past, looked at Shu Xiaoxiao in shock.

Shi En pretended to cough a few times to hide his embarrassment at the moment. He cupped his fists towards the people in the slums: "Everyone, we have already cleaned up these thieves that came to cause trouble in the slums, aside from being violent and peaceful, this is our responsibility as citizens of Great Ming Dynasty, and doing kindness is also my own pleasure to help the old lady across the road. I do this once every week, and I also do it three or four times on Sundays and on public holidays.

Just like this, under the grateful gazes of the people in the slums, Shi En waved his sleeves, not bringing the crowd away with him. With one hand on the reins, he called out "kowtow" and the horse turned around to snort at Shi En, before unwillingly running away.

Shi En rode on his horse carriage and rushed towards the Underground Fighting Ground.

The people in the slums watched as the carriage disappeared into the night. The older man rubbed his bald head and asked the others, "What did he just say?"

Everyone looked at each other in confusion. "He said a lot, but I didn't understand much."

A child eating the candy the three children gave him in the morning said sweetly, "That guy with a big face said he helps three or four old women across the road every day."

"Oh, so that's how it is. The Hammer family are kind-hearted people."

"I say, are there so many old ladies helping him? Three or four a day?

In the carriage, Shu Xiaoxiao was staring at Zhu Xiaochang's pair of eyes that said 'I've discovered that you two are having an affair' until her face turned hot. All along the way, she had been wildly pondering in her heart, but just now, when Shi En had smeared the ointment on her body, her brain momentarily stopped working, and she instantly lost her ability to think. It was only when Shi En released both of her hands that she finally reacted and withdrew her hands, but she didn't know what to say to him.
