Chapter 114 Arrest

"Quickly, catch him!"

"Whoa—"

Seeing that the pursuers were getting closer and closer, and that the surrounding villages were relatively densely packed, Lin Ziping quickly reined in the car and jumped off.

Untie the reins and lash the donkey "Wuling Hongguang" hard across the rump. "Wuling Hongguang" brayed in pain and ran forward with all its might.

Without Lin Ziping on its back, the Wuling Hongguang's speed noticeably increased. Since it was already walking into a wolf's den, there was no need to take the Wuling Hongguang with it. Hopefully, it would be lucky and not become someone else's meal!

Lin Ziping ran towards the nearby village houses with his backpack on, and found a place where he could hide inconspicuously.

A short while later, a group of people rushed away from the edge of the forest.

Seeing them leave, Lin Ziping's heart jumped into his throat.

"That person shouldn't have gone far, so keep looking for them here!"

About ten minutes later, the group returned. Lin Ziping was hiding under a pile of miscellaneous items in the village house. Through the gap, he could see a group of ten people, all wearing headscarves, with burly figures and bulging muscles.

"Yes!"

The others echoed this sentiment and dismounted.

Lin Ziping couldn't help but sigh, "There really is a difference between a Mercedes and a Wuling Hongguang. Even a mountain bike can't compete with money."

Wasn't it said that the rebels were the villagers from this area? These people don't look like villagers who are terminally ill!

It seems the information in the county government office is incorrect!

It was initially thought that the villagers from the surrounding area were dissatisfied with the government's attitude towards their illness and had gathered together, with the biggest risk being infection. However, it now seems that things are not so simple.

Now that the die is cast, Lin Ziping has no choice but to act. Considering the attitudes of everyone in the county government, he realized he was being pushed forward as cannon fodder. He could only suppress his fear and see if he could survive by turning his life into a death sentence.

Seeing that someone had searched this area, Lin Ziping gritted his teeth and pretended to make a noise unintentionally, hoping to attract their attention.

Sure enough, the two people who were nearby were drawn over and lifted the coverings that were covering Lin Ziping.

Lin Ziping immediately covered his head and squatted on the ground, trembling, muttering, "Don't kill me, don't kill me."

"Hahaha, so that's where you were hiding!" The two men put their hands on their hips and laughed maniacally, displaying the standard villainous style.

Lin Ziping shrank back even tighter, clutching his head, mechanically repeating, "Don't kill me."

"Brother, we found him! He's here!" one of them shouted to the man on horseback.

Hearing this, the other people searching elsewhere hurriedly moved closer.

"Stand up!" The man called "Big Brother" walked over and said to Lin Ziping.

Lin Ziping did not move.

Someone nearby stepped forward and kicked Lin Ziping, saying, "Didn't you hear your brother tell you to stand up?"

it hurts--

Lin Ziping endured the pain in his foot and hurriedly stood up, pleading, "Please, brothers, don't kill me!"

"So it's a young master." People around laughed.

Although Lin Ziping was wearing a mask and a headscarf, and was considered tall for a woman her age, she looked like a little chick among these burly men.

"Brother, don't kill me! Take this and buy some wine!" Lin Ziping took out the silver he had prepared and handed it over with a frightened expression.

The group didn't answer; instead, they all turned their attention to the leader.

"What are you doing in Maomao Village?" the leader asked.

Lin Ziping said with a worried look, "I got separated from my companions. I—I—I came here to find them."

The leader gave a wink to the person next to him.

The man casually drew a knife from his waist and brandished it in front of Lin Ziping: "Looks like you won't tell the truth unless I teach you a lesson!"
