Chapter 288: Chapter 287 Who is Behind This?

Zhang Xiaoshan glared at the woman and threatened her.

"Spill everything you know. If you’re honest, I’ll let you go. Otherwise, I’ll call the cops and you’ll be the first one I get arrested."

"Ah?"

Upon hearing this, the woman burst into terrified wailing.

"No, please, I, I’m really not with them. I’m just a commoner from Xia Shui Village. I was selling corn by the roadside this morning when they approached me, asking me to act for them, offering three hundred yuan for an hour. I, I was confused and agreed."

"I don’t want this money anymore. I don’t want it."

The woman handed the money to Zhang Xiaoshan, her body trembling.

"These scammers are so shameless."

"I knew it! Hundred Herbs Hall has been doing business in Qingshan Town for so long with a lot of integrity, especially the new lady boss, who often treats people for free and offers a decent price for our herbs. These jerks are just outrageous."

"Shameless."

Someone threw rotten eggs at the big-bearded man and his group.

"Sister, you better keep the money and go. But just this once. If you ever dare to pull this sort of stunt again, you won’t be so lucky."

Zhang Xiaoshan put the three hundred yuan back in the old sister’s hand and urged her to leave.

The old sister, her hands calloused and her body hunched, had blurted everything out as soon as Zhang Xiaoshan gave her a scare; it was obviously her first time conning someone, and she was just a poor soul. Three hundred yuan might be nothing for young folks in the city to spend on drinks at a bar, but for these farmers, it was almost the yield from an acre of land.

"Thank you."

The old sister, extremely surprised and grateful, thanked Zhang Xiaoshan and hurried off.

"Damn it, kid, you’ve got guts. You’re f*cking tired of living."

Seeing that the fraud had been exposed and Lin Yanran was taking out her phone to call the police, he was planning to leave.

"I said she could go, but when did I agree to let you all go?"

Zhang Xiaoshan called out to stop the big-bearded man.

"Kid, are you f*cking tired of living? I’m gonna end you today."

The big-bearded man was already resentful of Zhang Xiaoshan, and now that Zhang Xiaoshan was preventing him from leaving, it completely infuriated him.

"I’m gonna kill you."

The enraged big-bearded man swung his butcher knife, hacking fiercely towards Zhang Xiaoshan.

With such a forceful chop, even a thick trunk could be split in half.

"Zhang Xiaoshan, watch out!"

Lin Yanran, who was making the emergency call, screamed in alarm.

The surrounding crowd also retreated in fear.

The blade was swinging straight at Zhang Xiaoshan’s chest.

If the blow landed, Zhang Xiaoshan would be severed in two.

The big-bearded man, in his rage, had lost all reason.

Even his lackeys behind him were petrified with fear.

It shouldn’t be so brutal from the get-go, should it?

"Heh."

But Zhang Xiaoshan simply chuckled.

He hadn’t moved an inch from where he stood.

Just as the blade came within the last tens of centimeters of him, he lifted his hand and extended two fingers.

"Clang."

A crisp sound rang out.

It startled the onlookers who had closed their eyes in fear, who then stared blankly at Zhang Xiaoshan.

"Was he chopped in half?"

In their minds, they had naturally visualized Zhang Xiaoshan in a bloody, mangled state.

But the scene before them left them utterly astonished.

The large knife had halted just before it reached Zhang Xiaoshan.

And what had stopped the knife from landing on Zhang Xiaoshan was, incredibly, just two fingers.

Zhang Xiaoshan’s fingers were like pincers, clamping down on the blade.

"You, you..."

The big-bearded man was dumbstruck.

His eyes filled with disbelief as he looked at Zhang Xiaoshan.

"Who the hell are you?"

The big-bearded man, a veteran of the streets, had seen a fair bit of the world. The fact that Zhang Xiaoshan could do this with just two fingers was enough evidence that he was not as simple as he appeared to be.

"Didn’t I tell you? I’m a doctor." Zhang Xiaoshan spoke nonchalantly, clearly not taking the big-bearded man seriously.

"You, you..."

The big-bearded man struggled to pull the butcher knife back but couldn’t move it in the slightest.

"You want your knife back? Then I’ll give it back to you."

"Crack."

Zhang Xiaoshan exerted force with his two fingers.

His inner strength had been applied.

With a sharp crack, the blade broke in two.

The big-bearded man’s body instantly lost its balance, and he plopped onto the ground, nearly splitting his bottom in half.

"What, what?"

Staring at the remaining handle in his hand, the big-bearded man was completely baffled.

The onlookers showed expressions as if they were seeing a ghost.

This was no mere "tough guy."

"Mommy, Mommy, is that uncle a superhero?"

A few kids’ eyes were wide with wonder.

Especially Lin Yanran.

Her gaze towards Zhang Xiaoshan was filled with deep admiration and infatuation.

It’s said that a beauty loves a hero.

Zhang Xiaoshan was just too manly, wasn’t he?

For a moment, her heart fluttered wildly, and her cheeks flushed red.

Zhang Xiaoshan strode over to the big-bearded man, grabbed him with a backhand grip, and pinned him down.

"Rip."

He tore open the big-bearded man’s shirt.

Immediately, a fierce and malevolent tattoo became visible.

"What’s this? Didn’t you say you were a farmer? Since when did farmers get into this kind of thing?"

With that, the true identities of the big-bearded man and his group of scammers and bullies were thoroughly exposed.

"Damn it, what are you morons waiting for? Get him!"

The big-bearded man looked at his dazed cronies and bellowed in a fury.

The dozen or so men jerked awake and, one after another, lunged at Zhang Xiaoshan with knives they had drawn from their clothes.

But it was a futile gesture; they were just delivering themselves for the taking. One by one, Zhang Xiaoshan knocked them to the ground.

They couldn’t even get their knives close to him.

In less than a minute, all of them were lying on the ground.

"Well done! Good job!"

The crowd cheered incessantly.

Lin Yanran let out a long sigh of relief.

"Spill it. Who sent you?"

Zhang Xiaoshan’s foot on the big-bearded man’s chest, he looked down imperiously and interrogated him.
