Chapter 32 Green-skinned Scoundrel
Jiang Han, along with Yu Chengye, Shao Yong, and others, met up with Li Laowai outside and hurried back to the inn.

Shao Yong, walking behind him, looked indignant:
"Sir, do we really need to run?"

"With just those few servants, we brothers could easily kill the Li family father and son."

Yu Chengye, who was standing to the side, also chimed in:
"That's right, Uncle Jiang, wouldn't it be better to just kill that mad dog surnamed Li with one blow?"

"It's just a life for a life, I'm guaranteed to make a profit!"

Jiang Han rolled his eyes at him:
"What do kids know!"

He then turned to look at Shao Yong and began to explain:

"Have you forgotten the purpose of our trip? Purchasing military supplies is the real business."

"I've been out for several days, and I haven't bought anything yet."

"If we continue to get entangled with the Li family, and we attract the guards of Yan'an Prefecture, things will get complicated. There are only a dozen or so of us now."

Shao Yong and Li Laowai exchanged a glance. Although they were still unwilling, they understood that Jiang Han was right.

The two had no choice but to suppress their murderous intent and silently reply, "Yes."

Meanwhile, on the other side of Ansai County, Li Lihui was leading a large group of people toward the inn.

He gathered all the hooligans and ruffians that the Li family usually kept, plus a few familiar constables and yamen runners, a total of forty or fifty people, and they looked very menacing.

One of the constables, looking at the massive crowd, couldn't help but swallow hard and asked cautiously:

"Young Master Li, who on earth has offended you, causing such a commotion?"

Li Lihui did not answer, but instead gave him a cold glance.

The constable felt a chill run down his spine from that single glance, as if he had been entangled by a venomous snake.

I wonder which unlucky guy offended the second young master of the Li family.

This second young master of the Li family is no pushover.

A few days ago, Wang, the wife of Zhao Er's family, came to plead for mercy. Li Lihui took a liking to Wang's looks and wanted to force her to comply.

Wang refused to comply even at the cost of her life, and as a result, he burned her all over with a branding iron, almost to the point of torture.

As Li Lihui distributed the knives, he instructed his thugs:
"Listen up, all of you! My Li family has been providing you with good food and drink all this time. Now it's time for you to put in the effort!"

His gaze shifted, and he waved to the crowd, "Zheng Hong!"

A burly man wrapped in a fur coat stepped forward in response, cupped his hands, and said, "Young Master Li, what are your orders?"

Li Lihui narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice:
"Tell them that everyone except the leader, the one surnamed Jiang, should be hacked to death! I'll take responsibility if anything happens!"

Zheng Hong nodded after listening:

“How many people are there on the other side?”

"No more than fifteen, including one small one. Be careful when you make your move, lest you be caught off guard."

Li Lihui replied coldly.

Upon hearing this, Zheng Hong's face was full of disdain:
"Such a small number of people? Is it really necessary to call forty or fifty brothers?"

Li Lihui glared at Zheng Hong and said in a deep voice:
"Don't be careless! Judging from his guards, they are strong and muscular, and obviously quite brave."

"This isn't my private matter. Even my father is watching. If I mess it up, no one can cover for me!"

Upon hearing that Old Master Li was also concerned about this matter, Zheng Hong immediately abandoned his contempt and said seriously:
"Understood, I will be careful."

Li Lihui nodded in satisfaction, then turned to look at the several constables beside him, his tone grim:
“Listen up, you lot, don’t meddle in other people’s business.”

"You'll get your share of the benefits afterward!"

He paused, then added through gritted teeth,
"Once they've dealt with all the guards, I want to personally meet that Jiang guy!"

The constables nodded repeatedly; who would turn down money?
But upon hearing that Li Lihui wanted to personally take charge, he hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him:

"Young Master Li, a wise man avoids dangerous situations. Why trouble yourself to do it personally?" "Leave it to us brothers, we'll take care of that Jiang fellow perfectly!"

Li Lihui shoved them away forcefully, a ferocious glint in his eyes:
"No! I have to go myself!"

Li Lihui was filled with rage. How could he swallow this insult when that Jiang dared to mock him for being crippled in public?

This time, he was going to personally chop off Jiang Han's hands and feet, one by one, then heal him and make him a cripple too!
A group of people headed straight for the inn with great momentum. Street vendors and pedestrians ran away to avoid them, fearing that they would get into trouble.

Meanwhile, inside the inn, Jiang Han and the others had already packed their luggage and were preparing to set off for Bao'an County.

Just then, a commotion suddenly broke out on the first floor, followed by the sound of tables and chairs being overturned and smashed.

Hearing the noise, Jiang Han upstairs stuck his head out to take a look.

Li Lihui and a group of thugs were seen brandishing knives and sticks, smashing tables and chairs in the inn, and cursing and shouting.

The innkeeper huddled in a corner, his face pale, clearly terrified and at a loss for what to do.

Jiang Han frowned, coldly watching Li Lihui smashing things up inside the inn.

This mad dog is really relentless. I just let him go, and he came to kill me right after.

The Li family is used to being domineering; they really can't stand the slightest loss!

Shao Yong and Li Laowai, who were standing to the side, could no longer contain themselves. They snorted coldly and led the group back into the room. They pulled out goose-feather sabers from under the bed, put on cloth armor, and donned iron helmets.

They were all menacing and ready to rush downstairs and wreak havoc.

Seeing this, Jiang Han quickly reached out to stop them:

"What are you doing? This is the city! Put the knife down!"

"Wearing armor and carrying swords, are you going to seize the city?"

Old Li, standing to the side, was so anxious his eyes turned red:

"Lord Jiang, this mad dog surnamed Li has already come downstairs to beat us up! How can we tolerate this?!"

Jiang Han was somewhat helpless. This Li Lihui was really asking for trouble. He only brought forty or fifty men and thought he could cause trouble for him. He was underestimating his dozen or so brothers.

Jiang Han shook his head and gave the instructions:

"Don't bring a knife, just use a whistle stick."

"Take off your armor too. Why bother putting on armor to deal with a few thugs?"

Shao Yong became anxious upon hearing this:

"Lord Jiang, these thugs are riding roughshod over us, why don't we just kill them all?"

Jiang Han glared at him:
"You lot are quite bloodthirsty, this is right across from the county government office!"

"Killing people in the street in front of the county government office, including several yamen runners—anyone who didn't know better would think you were heroes from Liangshan!"

"What if things escalate and troops are sent from Yansui in the north?"

"Are we not going to live like this? Are we not going to grow food?"

Seeing their disgruntled expressions, Jiang Han smiled and reassured them:

"Why bother with these scoundrels? The important thing is Li Lihui, who came to us for help."

"Capture Li Lihui alive and make the Li family pay a ransom!"

"Once you've received the ransom, we'll give you a reward tonight!"

Upon hearing about the reward, Shao Yong and Li Laowai's eyes lit up immediately. They threw down their goose-feather sabers, drew their whistle sticks, and...
Led by other eager border soldiers, they charged into the crowd like hungry tigers pouncing on their prey.
