Chapter 22: 'The Great Hero'

  "Me? Take money for him? You think I'd really listen to that kid and collect on his behalf?"

  "My/your mountain rooster, unexpectedly even took away the necklace that Old Master Ma gave me..."

  Those hoodlums who had all their valuables searched out by the mountain chicken suddenly burst into loud curses and shouts.

  Zhao Yang let out a cold snort, his hands twisting and turning in all directions. The steel pipe he was holding was instantly tangled into a messy ball, which Zhao Yang then hurled to the ground with a loud "clang".

  Those thugs who were just yelling and cursing immediately shut their mouths.

  Some of them even took off the valuable items on their bodies, such as money, necklaces, rings, and earrings, and put them into the shopping bag held by the mountain chicken.

  With the active cooperation of those thugs, the mountain chicken's speed of searching for things suddenly accelerated. Before long, one shopping bag was already filled with nearly half a bag of renminbi and various gold and silver ornaments.

  After searching all those ordinary thugs on one side, the mountain chicken finally walked in front of Black Tiger and stuttered: "Black... Black Tiger brother, you... see..."

  Hei Hu glanced at Zhao Yang, and then directly reached into his pants pocket to pull out his wallet. He took out all the money inside and threw it into the shopping bag. Then, he also removed the thick gold chain from his neck and the gold ring from his finger, throwing them both into the shopping bag as well.

  The pheasant nodded and bowed to the black tiger, just about to go search for Zhang Liang who had fainted far away, when Zhao Yang suddenly let out a low hum from behind.

  Hearing Zhao Yang's humming, the mountain chicken couldn't help but shudder and quickly turned his head to look at Zhao Yang, trembling with fear: "G-great hero, is-is there something you want me to do?"

  Zhao Yang didn't say a word, he just nodded towards the gold watch on Hei Hu's wrist.

  The pheasant followed Zhao Yang's line of sight and turned around again, looking at Hei Hu, "Hei Hu Ge..."

  Hei Hu endured the pain and obediently took off the gold watch worth 50,000 to 60,000 yuan.

  Next, the pheasant ran to Zhang Liang's unconscious body and searched out all his valuables, then hurried back in front of Zhao Yang, fawningly handing over a shopping bag full of money and goods.

  "Great, great hero, everything is here. What else do you want to instruct?" The mountain chicken had a flattering expression, just like an obedient little pony.

  Zhao Yang nodded slightly, but didn't say a word. His gaze fell on the golden chain around the pheasant's neck.

  The pheasant immediately came to its senses, hastily took out the gold chain hanging from its neck and all the money on its body, and put it into Zhao Yang's shopping bag with a flattering smile.

  Seeing this, Zhao Yang nodded in satisfaction. He patted Shanji's shoulder and praised him: "Shanji, you did a great job! Here, take this 100 yuan as a reward, go buy some tea!"

  "Yes, yes! Thank you, great hero!"

  The mountain chicken took over a hundred yuan note that Zhao Yang casually pulled out, excitedly flushed with red face. So many people were all knocked down by the "hero", including Hei Hu Ge, only the mountain chicken was not beaten, and got the praise of the "hero" and a hundred yuan note as a "reward". This face is really earned!

  This scene looks strange and weird in other people's eyes!

  The person who was robbed, instead, became so excited and tearfully grateful because of a compliment from the robber and a 'reward' of 100 yuan. This is also a bizarre thing to say the least.

  Lin Xueqi was even more stunned, such a thing can be called a strange and absurd event.

  "Alright, we're leaving, you guys clean up this mess yourselves."

  After finishing speaking, Zhao Yang picked up the shopping bag that was filled with a large amount of money and beckoned to Lin Xueqi before turning around and leaving.

  Behind him, those thugs saw Zhao Yang finally leave and couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief. But the eyes that looked at Shanji were like they wanted to eat people, 'tiger staring fiercely'!

  The pheasant was frightened and hastily cried out: "Everyone, brothers, I...I also had no choice just now, you can't blame me, it was the great hero who made me do this, I had no way out..."

  "Hum, you son of a bitch, we've all been beaten up, but you're the only one who's fine. You say that today you also have to let us suffer the same fate as you? Brothers, let's go together!"

  A group of thugs had recovered a bit by now, and they crawled up from the ground one after another, sneering coldly as they surrounded the mountain chicken. The mountain chicken was so frightened that it directly covered its head and curled up into a ball.

  Just then a voice suddenly came, immediately scaring these thugs stiff.

  "Hey, I'm back and there's something I want to tell you guys."

  In the dark alley, Zhao Yang's figure emerged once again.

  Those thugs saw that it was really Zhao Yang coming and going, and suddenly they were trembling with fear, their legs shaking, almost falling down to pretend to be dead.

  Zhao Yang glanced at the thugs who were frightened and couldn't help but laugh, then said: "Don't be so tense. I just want to tell you that if you feel resentful, tomorrow at this time, you're welcome to bring more people here to block me."

  "I don't dare, I don't dare..."

  Those thugs have been scared out of their wits and don't dare to cause trouble for Zhao Yang again.

  That black tiger brother also had to force himself to walk up and apologize: "Great, great hero, this time it's our fault, we didn't recognize the mighty mountain and offended you, please forgive us and let us off with a warning, from now on we will never dare to offend you again!"

  Hei Hu didn't know what to call Zhao Yang either, but just now he heard Shan Ji call Zhao Yang 'Daxia', so he also followed suit.

  Zhao Yang pouted, seemingly a bit disappointed. "Forget it, forget it. I was thinking that you guys could bring more people over tomorrow, so I could get some extra income. Looks like the underworld isn't all that great after all, how boring!"

  Zhao Yang muttered under his breath.

  Hei Hu heard this and felt a wave of awkwardness and speechlessness. What kind of person is this, actually taking the initiative to ask them to take revenge on him, treating them like an ATM!

  Lin Xueqi, who was following Zhao Yang, also heard his words and couldn't help but burst out laughing...

  "Oh, by the way, that kid called Shanji did a good job just now, I think highly of him. As for the others, you guys handle it yourselves..."

  Zhao Yang's casual remark made Shanji extremely grateful and excited. Anyone with discerning eyes could see that Zhao Yang was protecting Shanji; unless Hei Hu and the others dared to ignore Zhao Yang, no one would dare make things difficult for Shanji again after what had just happened, even if Zhao Yang left.

  "Thank you, great hero, thank you, great hero... *sob* I'm so touched..." The mountain chicken was a mess of snot and tears, overcome with gratitude.

  Hei Hu originally also wanted to use the pheasant to vent his anger, but now that he's heard Zhao Yang's words, he can only hastily agree, otherwise if they were to offend this 'jinx', none of them would be able to live in peace.

  "Yes, yes! Don't worry, great hero, after I go back, I will promote Mountain Chicken..."

  "Hmm." Zhao Yang responded indifferently and followed Lin Xueqi again...
