Chapter 21 Danger Encounters, Life Hangs by a Thread

They are brothers, both of whom have attended elementary school, but their personalities and the way they treat their wives are completely different.

The weather was pretty good for the next few days.

Qiao Nian goes into the mountains with her father every day.

They called it gathering firewood.

In fact, she was indeed gathering firewood.

However, if she accidentally encounters a large, fat rabbit that has been knocked unconscious by a tree, or a pheasant that suddenly bumps into her, she will still put them away.

We went into the mountains for five consecutive days.

The firewood in the space was piled high.

She also found two rabbits, three pheasants, and a deer that had been bitten by a wolf.

She was a bit lucky.

Even Qiao Guowen thought his daughter was lucky.

They had lived here for five years, and they had come into the mountains in the winter before, but he had never picked up anything.

It's different with girls; once they arrive, they're more likely to find things.

These are the things that can't be cooked right now.

Cooking it in the mountains won't work, and cooking it at home won't work either.

"dad."

Qiao Nian carried a small bundle of firewood on her back as a cover.

The father and daughter walked home together.

"Hey, you in front, wait a minute, Old Nine in front, wait a minute!"

Loud shouts came from a distance behind me.

Qiao Nian and Qiao Guowen stopped and looked back.

Tian Weiqiang followed their footprints, stumbling along the path.

There were four or five people behind him.

This was the group of people Qiao Nian encountered the first time she went into the mountains.

Qiao Nian lowered her head and pulled the scarf that was covering her face.

They arrived in front of Qiao Nian and the others with an aggressive air.

Where did you gather the firewood?

Tian Weiqiang had a fierce aura as he stared at the father and daughter, as if he wanted to bore a hole through them.

"Besides firewood, have you picked up anything else?"

Their prey had disappeared, leaving only the father and daughter nearby.

It was hard for Tian Weiqiang not to suspect the father and daughter.

Qiao Guowen pointed to the woods not far away.

“We gathered firewood from that forest; we didn’t cut down any trees.”

"is it?"

Tian Weiqiang glanced at them, his gaze falling on Qiao Nian beside Qiao Guowen, and he suddenly laughed.

He reached out and pinched his chin, leering at Qiao Nian.

"Old Qiao, I heard from the villagers that your daughter is very beautiful! A little darling from the big city, with such radiant skin and such a pretty face. Why don't you ever take off your scarf and let us brothers see this city girl?"

Upon hearing this, the men following behind him all wore lewd smiles.

Their gazes seemed to materialize, as if they wanted to tear open Qiao Nian's old cotton-padded jacket.

Qiao Nian took half a step back.

Qiao Guowen stood in front of his daughter.

"Comrade Tian, ​​is there something you need? If not, we'll be going now."

Tian Weiqiang: "Originally there was nothing wrong, but now there is."

He raised his hand and pointed at Qiao Nian.

"Take off your scarf so I can see it."

"Comrade Tian!"

Qiao Guowen was getting anxious.

Tian Weiqiang stepped forward and shoved Qiao Guowen on the shoulder.

Qiao Guowen lost his balance and fell into the snow.

The firewood he was carrying on his back fell to the ground.

A burst of laughter erupted from the crowd.

"dad."

Qiao Nian went to help Qiao Guowen, but Tian Weiqiang stopped her.

"Little sister, take off your scarf and let your brother see what girls in big cities look like. Are they really whiter and more tender than tofu?"

"Tian Weiqiang, don't push your luck. My son-in-law is a soldier."

Qiao Guowen glared angrily and tried to get up from the snow, but Tian Weiqiang's henchmen held him down by the shoulders.

He was thin and weak, and no match for these people.

"Dad," Qiao Nian said anxiously.

Tian Weiqiang laughed again.

"She really is a pampered girl from the big city; even her voice is so sweet."

"Come on, call me 'brother' so I can hear you!"

Tian Weiqiang moved even closer.

He reached out and pulled off Qiao Nian's scarf.

Qiao Nian looked up, and the instant Tian Weiqiang reached out his hand to her, she slapped his arm away.

At the same time, a sharp dagger appeared in his hand.

"Wow, this girl's pretty hot? I like her."

Tian Weiqiang was certain that Qiao Nian wouldn't dare to make a move, so he recklessly reached out his hand again.

Qiao Nian raised her hand and pointed it in Tian Weiqiang's direction.

"Try coming any closer. Do you believe I can stab you in the stomach with a dagger?"

"Heh, you dare? Then try it. Come on, shove it in here."

Tian Wenqiang pointed to his forehead, provocatively urging Qiao Nian to stab him between the eyebrows.

Qiao Nian dared not kill anyone.

But she dares to hurt people.

If someone goes too far, she'll fight them to the death!

With a flick of her wrist, she slashed Tian Weiqiang's arm with the dagger in her hand, cutting off the thick sleeve of his cotton-padded coat on the spot.

A long bloodstain was also imprinted on the arm under the cotton-padded jacket.

This scene stunned everyone present.

Qiao Nian took two steps back, still holding the dagger in a defensive posture.

"Get out of here right now."

"Otherwise, this time it's your arm, next time it'll be your heart!"

Looking at his bleeding arm, Tian Weiqiang's smile vanished, and his expression gradually turned ferocious.

"You bitch, how dare you hurt me?"

Tian Weiqiang became angry and reached out to grab Qiao Nian.

Qiao Nian kicked Tian Weiqiang in the stomach, quickly turned around, and threw Tian Weiqiang onto the snow with an over-the-shoulder throw.

"Stinky bitch!"

"Brothers, let's go! Kill her! I'll take responsibility if you kill her."

Having been humiliated by Qiao Nian once again, Tian Weiqiang pointed at Qiao Nian and ordered his henchmen to beat her to death.

Four or five men rushed up at once, and the self-defense skills Qiao Nian had learned from Lu Xiao were no longer enough.

"Run, Nian Nian!"

Qiao Guowen was extremely anxious.

Qiao Nian glanced at her father, then turned and ran towards home.

"Chase her, catch her, kill her, kill her!"

Tian Weiqiang stood up, clutching his stomach, and pointed at Qiao Nian, yelling.

Qiao Nian gripped the dagger, running while quickly thinking about what to do next.

"You bitch, hey, you bitch!"

Tian Weiqiang's voice came from behind.

Qiao Nian turned her head and saw that her father was being trampled under Tian Weiqiang's feet.

"dad."

"Run! Run again! I'll kill this old geezer!"

"you dare!"

Qiao Nian's eyes were red at the corners.

At that moment, her eyes were filled with rage. "If you dare to hurt my father, I will make you pay with your life!"

"Make me pay with my life?"

Tian Weiqiang felt as if he had heard the best joke in the world.

"just you?"

"You really think you can scare people just because you're a soldier's family member? Let me tell you the truth, if I kill you all right now and take you to the ravine to feed the wolves, and you disappear without a trace, then even if your husband is a soldier, or even if your husband is a high-ranking official, you can't do anything to me!"

Having been accustomed to shady dealings, Tian Weiqiang was now truly intent on killing.

Veins bulged on his forehead, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.

Qiao Nian gripped the dagger tightly.

She gently placed one hand on her lower abdomen.

"Baby, this time it might really be bad."

As soon as she finished speaking, something flew past her ear, and Tian Weiqiang, who had been so arrogant, fell to the ground, clutching his nose.
