The Whale in the Mountains
Chapter 277 Is He Even a Man?
The gunshot echoed throughout the village, startling flocks of birds into flight.
Luo Qian squeezed her eyes shut, her heart filled with guilt.
She felt she had caused Chen Xiao's death. If she hadn't insisted Chen Xiao come along, he could have continued being a doctor.
But now, regret was too late…
But when she opened her eyes, she was stunned, her eyes filled with disbelief!
Chen Xiao was standing there unscathed, the bullet hadn't hit him at all.
Village Chief Chen's eyes widened, his face filled with terror, as if he had seen a ghost.
"Boy, how are you not dead yet?"
Village Chief Chen asked in astonishment.
He had shot Chen Xiao in the forehead, but Chen Xiao hadn't died!
At such close range, there was no way he could have missed!
"You mean, you thought you could kill me with this thing?"
Chen Xiao smiled slightly and opened his palm.
A golden bullet lay quietly in his hand.
Catching a bullet with his bare hands…how, how was that possible?
Song Zijian and Luo Qian also exchanged glances. This Dr. Chen was far from as simple as they had imagined!
Cold sweat broke out on Village Chief Chen's face, and he asked sharply, "Boy, who the hell are you?"
Then, before Chen Xiao could answer, he shouted, "Everyone shoot together, kill him now!"
He refused to believe that this little doctor could catch a dozen bullets at once.
But he shouted quickly, and Chen Xiao moved even faster.
"Let's see who dares!"
Along with Chen Xiao's stern shout, the gun in Village Chief Chen's hand was already in his own, and the muzzle was against Village Chief Chen's forehead.
Just like when Chen Xiao caught the bullet with his bare hands, no one saw how Chen Xiao did it…
It felt as if Chen Xiao was performing magic, suddenly making the gun appear in his own hand.
Song Zijian, who was standing aside, was dumbfounded, his heart trembling.
Of course, he knew that Chen Xiao was not performing magic. The reason why everyone didn't see Chen Xiao's movements was simply because Chen Xiao's movements were too fast.
He had reached a level that could not be captured by the naked eye. This speed could be called superhuman!
Chen Xiao held the gun against Village Chief Chen's forehead and shouted sternly, "Tell your men to put down their weapons!"
In fact, if Chen Xiao wanted to destroy these people, it would only take a few minutes. However, although they were bad, they were just ordinary people after all. If Chen Xiao used immortal techniques to deal with them, it would be too unkind.
What's more, Luo Qian and Song Zijian were here. It would be better to hand these people over to them and let them be punished by the law!
However, after hearing Chen Xiao's threat, Village Chief Chen gritted his teeth and said, "You want me to let them go just because you said so? What do you think you are!"
Although he was sweating profusely with the gun pointed at his forehead.
But he also knew that if he put down the gun, there would be no chance of turning the tables, so he must not listen to Chen Xiao.
"You brat, let our village chief go, or I'll shoot you!"
"Yes, let our village chief go, or we won't be polite!"
Hearing the shouts of those unruly people, Chen Xiao was stunned. He never expected that these people would dare to challenge him?
If they were tough, Chen Xiao would be even tougher!
He shot Village Chief Chen in the instep!
Bang—
The bullet pierced Village Chief Chen's instep, blowing up one of his feet.
"Ah—"
Village Chief Chen screamed even more miserably than when a pig was being slaughtered in the village!
"You old bastard, did you think I wouldn't dare to shoot? I'll say it again, tell your men to put down their weapons, or the next shot will be at your old bastard head!"
Chen Xiao didn't look like a doctor at all, more like a hooligan…or rather, the King of Hell!
This time, Village Chief Chen was afraid. This kid was too savage!
"Put them down, put all the damn guns down!"
Village Chief Chen finally compromised, gritting his teeth as he ordered.
Although the unruly villagers were all mixed up, they still listened to the old village chief, and they threw their weapons on the ground.
Everyone was waiting for Chen Xiao's next move, but Chen Xiao looked at Luo Qian and Song Zijian.
"What are you two still standing there for? Hurry up and arrest them!"
The two of them finally reacted and quickly went over to tie up the villagers. Since there were too many people, they could only symbolically tie them together with the thick rope.
"Qian Qian, call the authorities and ask them to send someone over!"
Song Zijian ordered.
"Yes, Team Leader Song!"
Luo Qian finally recovered from her previous shock and began to follow procedure.
However, at this moment, Chen Xiao stopped her: "Wait, there's no hurry to arrest people now. Li Jianming still has something to say. It's not too late to make a decision after he finishes speaking."
"But these people…"
Song Zijian was a little embarrassed, because there were too many of them. If they rebelled again, then all this would have been for nothing.
Chen Xiao smiled slightly and said lightly, "Don't worry, I'm here, they won't cause any trouble!"
Chen Xiao was not bragging, let alone these dozens of villagers, he wouldn't care about hundreds or thousands of them!
Song Zijian and Luo Qian looked at each other and finally agreed to Chen Xiao's suggestion.
After all, Chen Xiao's strength was obvious to all. Among the three of them, he had become the one in charge.
"Li Jianming, didn't you have something to say? Now no one is stopping you, hurry up and say it!"
Chen Xiao said to Li Jianming.
At this time, the latter was still huddled in the corner, trembling.
"I, I, I…"
Li Jianming stammered, his eyes constantly peeking at Village Chief Chen, obviously extremely afraid of him.
And Village Chief Chen was also a shrewd person. When he saw Li Jianming's cowardly appearance, he immediately knew what to do.
As long as Li Jianming didn't say anything, Song Zijian would have no evidence, and they would still have a glimmer of hope.
"Li Jianming, I dare you to say it!"
Village Chief Chen glared at Li Jianming and said quietly, "Don't you think it's better for you to honestly be a mute and pretend to be a fool? Why did you have to expose yourself? As the saying goes, it's better to live shabbily than to die, do you want to die that much?"
Hearing this, Li Jianming completely shut up, his expression twisted, obviously struggling in his heart.
Chen Xiao frowned slightly and said coldly, "Li Jianming, didn't you say that your wife and daughter were killed by them? Are you still a man if you're so cowardly? Do you think you deserve your dead wife and daughter?"
Chen Xiao's words were indeed effective, and Li Jianming burst into tears instantly.
"I'm not a man, I'm not even human, but Chen, even if I die today, I will expose your evil deeds!"
"Team Leader Song, I want to report that Village Chief Chen is leading the Chen clan of the entire Ba Hu Guan Village to grow drugs underground!"
