C204 The villain complains first
Qin Qi's gaze had already locked onto Xia Lei's injured thigh, and the hand holding the flying dagger slowly rose up.
Behind Xia Lei, was a cliff that was thirty thousand meters high. He had nowhere to retreat to, and his situation was already very dire.
But right at this moment, a wooden stick suddenly flew across the sky and smashed ruthlessly into Qin Qi's arm that was holding onto the flying dagger. Qin Qi's arm was in pain, and the flying dagger that was about to fly towards Xia Lei had dropped to the ground as well.
Qin Qi turned his head abruptly and saw the furious Liang Zhengchun right away.
"What are you guys doing?" Liang Zhengchun raged: "Fight with me!"
Lu Sheng who appeared with Liang Zhengchun also shouted angrily: "And me!"
Dong Wu, Qin Qi and Dong Wu's daughters were three people, and Xia Lei, Liang Zhengchun and Lu Sheng's side were three people as well, so the number of people did not lose out to them at all.
At this time, even more people walked over. Some were the staff of the scenic area, some were the participants of the Martial Arts Competition, and there were also staff who were here to host it.
With so many people, the scene immediately became lively. Things that couldn't be exposed to the light could no longer continue. Dong Wu took a step back and kept his treasure sword.
A middle-aged man walked over and said unhappily, "What's going on? What are you all doing? "
He was the head of the Martial Arts Assembly, the President, an official from the Ministry of Culture. His name was He Ping. His voice was filled with the dignity of a leader, and it immediately stunned the crowd. However, he only suppressed those unknown insignificant people in the martial arts world, as well as the staff in the scenic area. Dong Wu and Qin Qi did not even care about his existence.
Dong Wu's daughter, Dong Qing Yue said while crying, "It's him, he wants to molest me!" She pointed at Xia Lei, "My dad can't hold back, he wants to teach him a lesson."
"Is this true?" He Ping asked.
"It's true." Initially, one of the two workers who came with Dong Wu and Qin Qi spoke out, "We also saw it. He pulled this young miss' hand. This young miss has been crying ever since."
He Ping looked at Xia Lei and shouted angrily, "Come over here!"
Xia Lei walked over. His wounds were still bleeding, but they were not serious.
He Ping ferociously said, "A wretched woman is against the law, don't you know?"
Xia Lei didn't put He Ping's imposing manner in his eyes at all as he lightly said: "Look at a woman like her. I'm not blind, so why would I go and molest her?"
Dong Qing Yue was young, but not beautiful. Her face was large and round, and she had thick eyebrows. This face alone was enough to scare away many men, not to mention that her waist was very thick and she didn't have the slightest sense of curve. This kind of woman, in < The Water Margin >, was on par with Sun Erniang. For a man like Xia Lei, who could make a majority of women light up, would he assault a woman like this?
"It can't be, right? This handsome young man isn't blind, would he go assault a woman like that?" A young woman who came to see the commotion said something.
The crowd burst into laughter.
Dong Mingzhu was immediately angered, she pointed at the woman who spoke up for Xia Lei, "What did you say? Say that again if you dare! "
"So be it. Don't tell me you want to fight?" The woman who spoke up for Xia Lei was tall, with a pretty face and a black braid that reached his hips. He was beautiful, and had a good temperament.
"Little sister, if she dares to come over, I'll take her for you." A youth said, "Since when have our Tang Sect members been afraid of such things?"
Dong Qing Yue wanted to flare up, but Qin Qi grabbed her hand.
The Tang Sect in Shu is a big sect in the wuxia novels. It specializes in concealed weapons and is very powerful. Although the martial arts sect in reality was not as exaggerated as in novels, this was Mount Emei, the Shu area, and naturally also the Tang Sect's territory. Although Dong Wu and Qin Qi had the support of the Gu family, the Gu family's foundation was not here. Qin Qi was a very smart person, he knew very well what would happen if Dong Qing Yue fought with the Shu area's sect.
"What is it? Are you sleepy? " The youth provocatively said, "Why don't we compete in advance?"
"Humph!" Dong Qing Yue coldly snorted and didn't go up.
Dong Wu sheathed his sword back into its scabbard and said loudly: "President He, this brat assaulted my daughter, are we just going to let this matter go?"
Dong Wu was also a very smart person. His and Qin Qi's target was Xia Lei, and he did not want to offend the Shu area's Tang Sect either. Because there was no need for that. Therefore, he wanted to draw everyone's attention to something that did not exist ? Xia Lei had molested his daughter.
"Nonsense!" Liang Zhengchun said angrily: "I know my men very well, don't frame them as good people!"
"We have proof, not a false accusation." Dong Wu insisted.
He Ping looked at Xia Lei and questioned: "I have a witness, what do you have to say for yourself?"
Xia Lei had yet to speak, but the woman who had spoken for him said: "President He, look at her body. There are no injuries at all on her body, and her clothes are all right.
The young man beside her glared at the staff member who spoke up for Dong Wu, "Are you sure this mister has molested this ugly woman? "If you say something like that after accepting the money, then I'm not done with you."
"I ?" The staff member from the scenic area was suddenly terrified as he stammered, "I-I'm not sure. I didn't see it clearly."
Xia Lei gratefully looked at the tall and beautiful woman. He had never known her before, yet she helped him like this. Although there was battle qi between the two of them, he still felt that he owed her a huge favor.
Dong Wu and Qin Qi glared at the staff member who accepted the money but changed his name. However, in front of so many people, the two of them did not dare say anything.
"You people who practice martial arts really have a big temper. Stop messing around, forget it, I'm too lazy to bother. If you want to go on with this, just call the police and let them take care of it. " He Ping left with his next sentence. He didn't want to bother with it anymore.
"Let's go!" Dong Wu also gave up.
Only then did Qin Qi let go of Dong Qing Yue's hand and left with Dong Wu.
Xia Lei did not stop him. Dong Wu, Qin Qi and Dong Qing Yue had set a killing trap for him. He hated them to the bones, but he was not an impulsive person. He was unable to prove that these three people were plotting to assassinate him. On the contrary, if they insisted on molesting Dong Qing Yue, it would be troublesome. If he stopped the three, they would just fight again. Perhaps he might be able to use his fists to gain some advantage. However, would he still be able to kill these three in front of so many people?
"Lei, are your injuries alright?" Liang Zhengchun asked with concern.
"It's fine, it's not serious." Xia Lei said.
"What just happened?" Liang Zhengchun asked. He did not believe that Xia Lei would molest a woman like Dong Qing Yue, but he did not know how.
Xia Lei said: "Master, I will explain it to you later. I will go and thank my friends."
Liang Zhengchun nodded.
Xia Lei walked in front of the young man and woman, and politely said: "Thank you for what you guys did just now."
The tall woman smiled. "Don't mention it. I just don't like that self-righteous woman."
The young man also smiled and said, "Brother, I also don't believe that you would assault a beautiful woman like that. Everyone here is a martial artist, so of course, if you see injustice, you have to speak the truth. "
"Thank you." Xia Lei reached out his hand to the young man, "My name is Xia Lei, I'm a friend."
The young man and Xia Lei shook hands, "Tang Bochuan."
The tall girl also shook Xia Lei's hand, "My name is Tang Yuyan."
"Thank you, Miss Tang." Xia Lei's face also revealed a smile.
Tang Yuyan pursed her lips and laughed, "You're welcome."
A good-looking man is always easy to get on the good side of a woman.
Tang Bochuan said: "Brother Xia, just now when I saw you make a move, you started to practice the Spring of Incantation, right?"
Xia Lei nodded his head, "Yes, I learned the Wing of Spring."
Tang Yuyan smiled and said: "So it really is the Wing Tsun. If there's a chance another day, let's spar for a bit." After a pause, she said, "But now you have to go and tend to your wound. It's bleeding."
Tang Bochuan also said: "That's right, Brother Xia, you should go and tend to your wounds, we'll talk later."
Xia Lei said: "Ok, let's have a cup of tea together when we're free."
Returning back to his hotel room, Lu Sheng helped Xia Lei bandage his wounds.
Liang Zhengchun's expression became heavy, "That guy used a weapon, it's obvious that he wants to kill you. Lei Zi, don't lie to me, what is going on?"
Only then did Xia Lei mention Dong Wu's identity that was hesitating and his grudge with Gu Kewu. The only thing that he did not mention was Shentu Tianyin. Liang Zhengchun was his master, and even more so his future father-in-law. Liang Siyao knew that was enough.
"Master, you have to be careful." Xia Lei also had his own worries. "The Gu family comes from the underworld, they do whatever it takes, and I'm afraid the Gu family will take revenge on you."
"Humph!" Liang Zhengchun sneered, "I, Liang Zhengchun, have never been a timid person. You are a member of my family, and if they want to harm you, that is tantamount to harming me. It's best that those three people at the Martial Arts Competition do not meet me. If they do, Master will seek justice for you. "
Just these few words moved the entire family and Xia Lei's heart. After all, he and Liang Siyao already had a couple, and the only thing that was lacking was a marriage certificate issued by the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Lu Sheng also said: "Count me in. Damn it, Lei Zi, your problem is my problem, I'm also not used to seeing despicable people like you!"
"Thanks, Brother Sheng." With Liang Zhengchun, Xia Lei naturally didn't need to thank him, but with Lu Sheng, there was a need for him to be courteous.
Lu Sheng rolled his eyes at Xia Lei, "Senior Brother from the same sect, why are you being so courteous to me? If you continue to be courteous to me, I'll turn against you. "
Xia Lei laughed, "Alright, you're welcome."
Lu Sheng said: "Oh right, I have something to discuss with you."
Xia Lei replied: "Brother Sheng, please speak."
"I don't want to be Zhang Sen's bodyguard, let me work at your company. If you just give me any salary, I'll just be the head of security. " Lu Sheng said.
Xia Lei said straightforwardly: "No problem, if you come over, I will give you the position of a security minister. I will double the salary you get from Zhang Sen."
"I don't want your double salary, he gave me two hundred thousand, I only want two hundred thousand, I don't want any more." How could Lu Sheng have the face to ask for double Xia Lei's salary? He was already very happy that Xia Lei was willing to take him in.
To Xia Lei, having a security minister like Lu Sheng was a good thing. After all, Lu Sheng was born a professional bodyguard, and was skilled in martial arts. With Lu Sheng here, the security problems of the company were solved. With Lu Sheng also having a bodyguard by his side, he felt a lot more at ease.
