Chapter 147: Chapter 147: Help arrives
In just a matter of two or three minutes, Lin Kaiming saw the motorcycle in the middle of the road in front of him, with its headlights on brightly.
A young man was pressing Feng Yiping to the ground and beating him, while Feng Yiping was dodging and fighting back. A young fat boy was hanging from the young man, and was pulling his head back forcefully.
A man who walked with a limp, holding a stick, was about to go over and help. When he saw the motorcycle lights, he squinted and looked back. A flat bar swept across his leg, adding to the pain from before. This man, who had been the first to be knocked to the ground by Feng Yiping, was now the first to be knocked to the ground by Lin Kaiming, who had just arrived.
The three men over there also heard the commotion over here. When the leader of the thugs saw that someone was coming, he knew that things were about to go badly.
In such a big town, there are only a few police officers in the town's police station responsible for maintaining law and order, and they are idle most of the year because they are not needed for ordinary matters.
In the countryside nowadays, people are not as indifferent as the city people later became. For example, if they dare to stop three students on the road in broad daylight, those passing by, whether they know Feng Yiping and the others or not, will never stand idly by and will definitely beat them up so badly that their own mothers will not recognise them.
And don't even think about arguing with the villagers about excessive self-defence. They won't care and won't understand. When someone is being attacked, is it wrong to help?
That's why the three of them chose to attack at night.
So when he saw someone coming, he threw off Xiao Zhijie, who was on his back, and tried to get up and run. But it wasn't that easy to run away now. Feng Yiping, who had just been trying to get rid of him, now clung to him desperately.
Lin Kaiming, who had run over barefoot, pointed at him with a pole and cursed, 'You son of a bitch, let go of my nephew!'
His neighbour also picked up a stick on the ground and blocked the motorcycle in front of the thugs.
Seeing that he could not get along, the leader of the thugs let go of Feng Yiping – mainly Feng Yiping let go of him, holding his hands up, 'I let go, uncle, let's talk about it!'
'I told you to say something nice!' Lin Kaiming held up the pole and hit him, causing him to cower. Of course, he was still careful with the force of his hand, otherwise, such a strong pole could take half of the man's life.
'Uncle, I was wrong!' The man had not gained much advantage in the fight with Feng Yiping and the others, and now, unarmed and under the attack of two adults, he was even less able to fight back. He could neither run nor escape, so he simply sat down on the ground with his hands raised, begging for mercy.
'Haha,' Feng Yiping couldn't help but laugh when he saw the sorry sight of the man, who had previously acted like a big brother. He really felt sorry for him, as he had failed so miserably as a gangster!
Xiao Zhijie stumbled over to him and kicked him a few times. 'Weren't you so cocky just now? You're such a bully!'
The neighbour with the stick hurriedly pulled him over to him, 'Forget it, kid!'
Lin Hui also arrived on her bike at this time, saw Xiao Zhijie covered in blood, and went over to support him, "Are you okay!'
'I'm fine! Feng Yiping is over there!" He pointed to the ground, and Lin Hui followed him towards Feng Yiping.
Feng Yiping, lying on the ground, looked quite miserable!
His clothes had been torn into pieces, and there were still a few red marks on his chest. His eye was swollen like a steamed bun, his mouth was broken, his nose was broken, too. He saw that his fellow sufferer Xiao Zhijie looked about the same as him, and the two of them laughed.
'Look at you, both of you, and you're still laughing?' Lin Hui used Feng Yiping's torn clothes to wipe the blood from his face, and asked, "Does it hurt?'
'No!" Feng Yiping, lying on the ground, and Xiao Zhijie, sitting on the ground, glanced at each other and laughed again.
In fact, it really hurt, but no matter how small a man is, there is some blood in his bones. The two of them were so excited that they felt a little numb and slow.
Over there on the road, there were many flashlights flashing at this time. Needless to say, it was the school teachers riding bicycles to come over.
Feng Yiping wanted to sit up, but Lin Kaiming used the belt to tie the men up. At this time, he walked over and gave Feng Yiping's shoulder a gentle push, 'Lie down!'
and turned to Xiao Zhijie and said, 'You lie down too!'
The two little guys understood what Lin Kaiming meant, but they couldn't let people think that they had an easy time fighting this fight.
So they'd better lie down. Of course, they looked a bit miserable, but they both had only superficial injuries. The three thugs hadn't wanted to or dared to go all out, otherwise they definitely wouldn't be looking like this.
But in a fight, it's all about your spirit. Now that their fighting spirit had worn off, and after the intense tension earlier, they really felt weak.
'Uncle, first help us keep this a secret from home!' Feng Yiping didn't want his grandfather and parents, who were far away in the provincial capital, to worry. Looking at Xiao Zhijie's miserable state next to him, he didn't know how to face his parents.
'With things like this, how can we keep it a secret?'
'Don't worry, someone is more anxious than we are and will definitely find a way,' Feng Yiping said, looking at the three men sitting on the ground with a defeated look on their faces.
All the school leaders had come, except for Vice Principal Li. The principal, concerned, asked the two of them, 'How is it? Is your head okay? Are your hands and feet okay? Is anything on your body okay?'
This was no time to laugh. The two of them looked like downtrodden, poor commoners who had finally seen the face of their liberator, the People's Liberation Army. "Everything hurts!'
'These sons of bitches, how could they have been so ruthless?" Wang Yumin was full of indignation and heartache, crouching down with Lin Hui and her daughter to help wipe the blood from their faces.
The male teachers who were surrounding them looked at the two of them in this state and offered their condolences. Many of them went over there and kicked a few times to vent their anger.
Wang Changning only then had the opportunity to squeeze in, quite ashamed, as if he had abandoned the two of them. 'Thank you really Changning! If it weren't for you leaving the bike chain behind when it fell off, we would really be in trouble tonight!'
Wang Changning immediately understood what he meant, but he couldn't let anyone know that they had been prepared.
'Yes, thank you Changning!' Xiao Zhijie also said that they were grateful to Wang Changning for his reminder and persistence. If he hadn't insisted, the situation tonight would definitely have been very different.
Outside the crowd, Wang Yumin saw the motorcycle and thought it looked familiar. She walked over and looked at the license plate. Sure enough!
Thinking about what happened a while ago, she already had a general idea of what was going on. She went over and whispered a few words to the principal, who repeatedly confirmed with her, and she nodded affirmatively.
The principal gritted his teeth with some hatred and said, 'Why did I believe their nonsense in the first place!'
He looked over at Feng Yiping and the others and said, 'Okay, let's get them to the hospital first. The police station is probably going to be here soon!'
Lin Kaiming and Teacher Zhu each carried one on their backs and walked towards the hospital. As for the other three, they were being driven by a crowd of people, supporting each other as they slowly walked towards the hospital.
