Chapter 141: Breaking the Ground
Chapter 141: Breaking the Ground
The drunk man reacted and suddenly pushed away the accomplices who were supporting him, and staggered to Mu Jin's side.
Everyone who was eating at the table next to Mu Jin showed fear on their faces. They stood up and ran out of the door to avoid it.
They were afraid that if they were a step slower, the drunkards would suddenly target them and they would suffer the disaster.
The drunk man leaned on Mu Jin's dining table with both hands and smiled at her with a big mouth. There was a hint of vulgarity in his smile, and a smelly burp was accompanied in the middle.
Mu Jin turned his face away when he heard the voice and put two fingers on the tip of his nose with a look of disgust.
Seeing Mu Jin like this, the drunk man did not get angry. He just smiled and asked Mu Jin: "Are you disliking me?"
Mu Jin raised his eyes and looked at him and said, "So what?"
The drunk continued with a smile, "You have personality. I like you. May I ask where this young master is from? What's your name?"
Mu Jin sneered: "What the hell is it to you?"
The diners in the inn couldn't help but gasp when they saw Mu Jin being so rude to the drunk, and they all whispered to each other and speculated that the two outsiders were going to be in trouble today.
But at this time, the drunk man was still not angry. Instead, he stared at Mu Jin.
He just felt that the nobility and arrogance that Mu Jin exuded from the inside out actually had an intriguing beauty, which completely attracted him with every glance and conversation he had.
The drunk suddenly pulled the chair next to Mu Jin away and sat down. Nangong Min clenched his fists and was about to stand up, but was stopped by Mu Jin's eyes.
The drunkard said with a smile: "Sir, it doesn't matter if you don't say anything, then let me introduce myself first.
My name is He Dazui, and I am from Liangcheng. However, I don’t like living in this noisy city. I prefer living in the mountains. I wonder if you are interested in coming to my home and sitting with me. "
After the drunk finished speaking, his accomplices nearby couldn't help but join in the fun.
Mu Jin suddenly burst out laughing and said, "He Dazui, did your mother name you based on your big mouth? She knows that your big mouth is very annoying."
The people around couldn't help but hold their mouths shut when they heard Mu Jin say this, wanting to laugh but afraid of causing trouble. This was because He Dazui lived up to his name, with a mouth so big that it could swallow a cow.
He Dazui could tell that Mu Jin was laughing at her, and couldn't help but stop smiling.
Suddenly he raised his hand and wanted to hug Mu Jin's shoulders, but Mu Jin seemed to have anticipated it. He grabbed the drunk's wrist with one hand and did a back-handed cut. He Dazui was pressed on the dining table by Mu Jin and screamed in pain.
Upon seeing this, He Dazui's accomplices immediately stepped forward and wanted to attack Mu Jin, but were stopped by He Dazui.
"Don't move, this kid has a wild temper. I like him. Don't let you hit him in the face."
At this time, the innkeeper saw that the two sides were in a stalemate, so he hurried forward to help.
"My two guests, please calm down. You are outsiders and you may not know that Mr. He is a friend of our county magistrate, Mr. Li. Please let go of your hands and apologize to Mr. Li. Don't be unreasonable."
Mu Jin sneered: "I don't care who my friends are. I won't be polite to those who have dirty hands and dirty mouths."
After Mu Jin finished speaking, he let go of He Dazui and kicked him and the table to the ground.
Seeing He Dazui being kicked to the ground by Mu Jin, the drunk's accomplices immediately surrounded him.
Nangong Min pulled Mu Jin behind him, drew his sword, and moved swiftly, knocking down the men who were besieging him in the blink of an eye.
One of them even fell at Mu Jin's feet. When he was about to stand up, Mu Jin pressed him to the ground and he couldn't move.
At this moment, the inn was in chaos, with tables and chairs overturned and cups and plates scattered everywhere. Other guests hid and watched the sudden conflict in horror.
How could the men who were knocked down accept this? Normally in Liangcheng, no one would dare to touch them unless they beat others.
Several people got up, roared, and surrounded Nangong Min again, but before they could get close to Nangong Min, they were swept by Nangong Min and kicked out to the street outside the inn.
The men did this repeatedly, and with each attack, several of them were beaten badly by Nangong Min.
At this time, Zhao Dazui no longer wanted to covet Mu Jin's beauty. He just got up from the ground, roared, picked up the chair next to him, and was about to smash it towards Nangong Min.
However, before the chair could get to Nangong Min's side, it was chopped in half by Nangong Min's sword.
How could Zhao Dazui accept this? He raised his fist and rushed towards Nangong Min with a loud shout. Before the crowd could see clearly, Zhao Dazui was kicked by Nangong Min and flew to the wall.
Zhao Dazui struggled to sit up, but the pain in his chest made him unable to support himself. He could only stare at Nangong Min and Mu Jin with wide eyes, his face full of anger and unwillingness.
Looking at the people who were lying on the ground howling in pain and the messy tables and chairs, Nangong Min walked to Mu Jin and asked her, "Are you okay?"
Mu Jin smiled back at Nangong Min: "They are just a few minions, what can happen?"
When people on the street saw the drunk lying on the ground crying for his parents, they all felt relieved.
At this time, an old man secretly walked towards Mu Jin and Nangong Min, hiding behind them and whispered.
"My two young masters, you are from other places, but you don't know that these people are not easy to deal with. They are bandits outside the city. Even the county magistrate usually gives them some leeway. Now that they are unable to get up and the government officials have not arrived yet, you should flee quickly."
"bandit?"
Mu Jin and Nangong Min couldn't help but be stunned, because with the mediocre skills of these people, it was impossible for the officers and soldiers of Liangcheng to be completely helpless against them.
The old man said, "This Zhao Dahu is not easy to mess with. He will not let go of not only men but also women as long as he takes a fancy to them. He is more interested in men."
The old man glanced at Mu Jin and continued, "This young man is so handsome, I guess he has taken a fancy to him. You should run away quickly."
After the old man finished speaking, he quickly disappeared into the crowd, as if he was afraid that the bandits would find out that he was talking to Mu Jin and Nangong Min and would retaliate against him.
Mu Jin and Nangong Min looked at each other and couldn't help but smile. They had just finished their meal and were about to go to investigate the bandits' hideout when they actually showed up at their doorstep.
At this moment, there was another sudden noise outside, and a group of yamen runners suddenly broke into the inn. The leading yamen runner shouted loudly: "Who dares to cause trouble here?"
The bailiff separated the crowd and saw Zhao Dazui and his accomplices lying on the messy ground, screaming and looking at each other in bewilderment.
When Zhao Dazui saw that the man was a yamen runner, he could not help but scold him, "Come and help your Master Zhao."
The leading yamen runner was stunned, only to find that the man in front of him who was beaten into a pig's head was actually Zhao Dazui, the bandit leader in Liangcheng who was feared by the people.
But isn't Zhao Dazui drinking with his master in this inn today? They are also here to pick up the master at the order of the county master's wife.
The leading bailiff reacted and quickly stepped forward to support Zhao Dazui who was lying on the ground, and hurriedly said with concern: "Hey, who is this blind person who dares to touch our Master Zhao?"
Suddenly, a drunk with a big belly came out from behind the crowd and shouted, "Who is so desperate to disturb my sleep?"
The yamen runner turned to the drunk who claimed to be the official and said, "Sir Li, did these two lowly people beat up Master Zhao?"
The drunken Lord Li looked at Mu Jin and Nangong Min, and said, "Then help Master Zhao catch these two little bastards for me."
