Lu Fan kicked and broke a wooden pole as thick as a bowl's mouth, startling everyone around. The young man didn't look particularly strong, but his strength was considerable.
Xu Sanhuai, Fu Daniu, and Li Erlengzi were also taken aback, not expecting to encounter such resistance. Having a wild boar follow them was scary enough, but this kid was fierce himself!
However, after spending so much time in the city, fighting was nothing new. Although startled, the three were unwilling to back down. They exchanged glances and closed in on Lu Fan.
"Kid! You've gotten yourself into trouble! You won't be walking away from this wooden pole without paying a thousand yuan!" Li Erlengzi pointed at Lu Fan and declared.
"Get lost, you bastard..." Before Li Erlengzi could lower his finger, Lu Fan kicked him. The blow landed squarely on Li Erlengzi's abdomen, and with a whoosh, he was sent flying four or five meters away, landing with a thud on the ground.
"I... damn... your... mother..." Li Erlengzi found it difficult to breathe, each curse coming out in gasps, his face turning red with the effort.
The onlookers, who had been chattering and adding their two cents, fell silent as Li Erlengzi was sent flying. Some of the more timid ones slowly retreated. Everyone was puzzled. When did the son of Doctor Lu from Twelve Gorges Village become so formidable?
Xu Sanhuai's heart skipped a beat. He hadn't expected the kid to be so efficient in a fight. He didn't waste any words. His eyes darted around, and he suddenly pushed Fu Daniu: "Daniu! Go! Take him down!"
"Damn your mother..." Fu Daniu roared and lunged at Lu Fan. With a whoosh, he threw a punch towards Lu Fan's face.
"Scram..." Lu Fan countered with a punch of his own. With a whoosh, Fu Daniu was also sent flying.
These two were mere thugs; how could they possibly be Lu Fan's match? If Lu Fan hadn't controlled his strength, both of them would be dead by now.
Whoosh... Seeing that the situation was bad, Xu Sanhuai turned and ran.
"Second Senior Sister! Go teach him a lesson!" Lu Fan patted his Second Senior Sister and said.
Whoosh... The Second Senior Sister instantly charged forward, reaching Xu Sanhuai's back in a few strides. She lowered her head, and with a bang, she headbutted Xu Sanhuai, sending him flying into the air. He somersaulted and crashed to the ground with a crack.
"Owow..." Xu Sanhuai burst into tears from the impact.
The Second Senior Sister, with her bulging belly, waddled back happily, grunting and expecting praise from Lu Fan.
"Second Senior Sister! Well done! I'll give you a good bath when we get back!" Lu Fan said with a smile, patting her big ears.
Hmph! The Second Senior Sister snorted and turned her head away: "Pervert! Who needs your bath?"
"Lu Fan... No hitting people!"
Toot toot toot... Suddenly, the sound of a motorcycle accompanied by a voice reached them. Lu Ran looked up and saw Shen Xinyi, the director of the police station. It turned out that Liu Ruyan, worried that Lu Fan might be at a disadvantage, had called Shen Xinyi. Shen Xinyi had rushed over on her motorcycle, with a police car following not far behind.
The motorcycle and police car arrived instantly. Shen Xinyi dismounted. She looked at the three people lying on the ground and then at Lu Fan.
"You beat these people, didn't you? How could you just hit people like that!" Shen Xinyi gave Lu Fan a look and said with a hint of reproach. Robbery was illegal, but if you injured someone, you couldn't escape legal responsibility!
"Hehe! Sister Xinyi! I didn't hit anyone! These three guys saw the police uncle... uh... the police auntie arrive and wanted to run. I helped you subdue them!" Lu Fan said with a smile.
"Get lost... Who's an auntie?" Shen Xinyi glared at Lu Fan. Calling her an auntie? That's asking for it!
"Xiao Zhao! Take these people back and question them properly!" Shen Xinyi pointed at Xu Sanhuai and the others lying on the ground and said to Xiao Zhao and the others who had gotten out of the police car.
"Yes!" Xiao Zhao and another person immediately pulled Xu Sanhuai, Fu Daniu, and Li Erlengzi up from the ground and shoved them into the car.
"Police uncle! We are the victims... We were beaten... You've got the wrong people." Xu Sanhuai shouted in protest.
Xiao Zhao and the others ignored his shouts and shoved him into the police car.
At this moment, Old Sun, who had been blocking the front of the van, trembled all over. He had been partially paralyzed, but now he stood up shakily, trying to run. With those three arrested, he didn't want to be caught.
"Old Sun! Damn it... Don't be scared, don't fall in your condition!" Lu Fan quickly ran over and supported Old Sun.
"Old Sun! Don't worry, they won't take you even if you want to go to the police station. If you die there, it will implicate many people." Lu Fan helped Old Sun back into his wheelchair and then said, "I know this has nothing to do with you. With your condition, how could you block the road? Even a brat could push you into a ditch and kill you. However, I can cure your illness, though it's quite troublesome. It might require several acupuncture sessions!"
"I... I..." Old Sun was so excited to hear that his illness could be cured that he couldn't speak.
"Damn... Don't get too excited! If you get too excited, you might pass out!" Lu Fan quickly took out a small pill and put it into Old Sun's mouth.
"Don't get excited! After taking this pill, your condition will be somewhat controlled. But your illness has been there for too long, so you still need several acupuncture sessions! Alright, you can go back first. I'll treat you when I'm done with my current matters." Lu Fan said, looking around. Fortunately, two brave villagers hadn't run off, so he quickly called them over to help push Old Sun back.
"Lu Fan! You can cure his illness?" Shen Xinyi stared at Lu Fan in surprise.
"Yes! It's just that this old man has been ill for a long time, and he lacks exercise, so it's a bit difficult to treat," Lu Fan nodded and then added, "Sister Xinyi! Here's something delicious for you!"
Lu Fan flipped his wrist, and a large pink peach appeared in his hand. He smilingly offered it to Shen Xinyi.
"This is your peach... You want to bribe me with your peach... Never mind..." Shen Xinyi suddenly realized that no matter how she put it, it sounded awkward. She simply took the peach, wiped it on Lu Fan, and took a bite.
"Wow... Your peach is so delicious!" Shen Xinyi exclaimed after the first bite. But as soon as she said it, she felt something was off and her pretty face blushed.
Beside them, Xiao Zhao and another police officer looked at Lu Fan with envy. This kid's relationship with our director...
"Xiao Zhao! You two can go back first. I'm going to see my friend!" Shen Xinyi suddenly said to Xiao Zhao.
"Yes! Director!" Xiao Zhao quickly responded. The two got into the car and drove away with Xu Sanhuai and the others.
Hum hum... hum hum... At this moment, the Second Senior Sister suddenly looked at Shen Xinyi eating the peach, her mouth watering. She kept grunting and nudging Lu Fan's thigh. It was a clear: I want to eat too, I want to eat too, I'll let you help me bathe if that's okay!
"You want to eat peaches too?" Lu Fan's heart stirred. He remembered how she looked for mushrooms in the pine forest before, and now she was almost drooling at the sight of nectarines. Could it be that she had a sense for spiritual liquid?
"Alright! Second Senior Sister performed well today, so here's a reward for you!" Lu Fan flipped his wrist, and another peach appeared in his hand. He threw it directly into the Second Senior Sister's mouth.
The Second Senior Sister ate it with great delight.
"By the way! Lu Fan! How did you bring her out?" Shen Xinyi finally remembered to ask.
"Hehe! This is my treasure mount!" Lu Fan said, then put his leg over the Second Senior Sister's back: "Second Senior Sister! Let's go home."
Dada da... The Second Senior Sister happily ran back.
"Lu Fan... Can I ride her for a while? You can ride my motorcycle!" Shen Xinyi suddenly exclaimed excitedly.
