After the letter was delivered, Qiao Yujie thought it over and over and realized that she had been too rash in taking this step. She didn't know Su Beichen very well, but she did know his temperament.

However, the current situation is not suitable for further explanation. It is better to let things take their course and, when the time is right, to use Xiong Bufan to ease the tension between the two parties and clear up the misunderstanding. Qiao Yujie picked up her pen and wrote another letter to Cui Haoyu, explaining the current situation.

After doing all this, Qiao Yujie sighed, called over a maid to bring over the account books, and checked the shop's cash flow.

On the mountain, Da Chun rushed back from the mountain gate, shouting, "Boss, something terrible has happened! Someone's attacking us!"

The others from Da Cai Zhai were also in a panic, shouting, "Run! They're attacking! Run for your lives!"

If they encounter an enemy they cannot defeat, the people of Da Cai Zhai will pack up all their belongings and migrate together, fleeing quickly. They will never fight head-on; survival is the most important thing.

002 had just returned from the foot of the mountain and called out to Dachun, "What happened?"

Da Chun gestured as he spoke, "They're attacking from the next mountain! There are so many people! Run away quickly!"

002 asked in confusion, "We also have a lot of people, why don't we fight them?"

Da Chun realized what was happening and ran towards Xiong Bufan's house, shouting, "Boss, something bad has happened! Someone's trying to rob us!"

If someone were to attack their territory, Xiong Bufan might remain indifferent, but if he heard that someone was robbing them, he would be the first to jump out and defend his money.

002 wiped the sweat from his forehead. If anyone said Da Chun was stupid, he would be the first to disagree. Look how smart he is at crucial moments, able to find Xiong Bufan's focus.

Before Da Chun could finish shouting, Xiong Bufan rushed out with a stick in her hand. Anyone who dared to steal her money would be flattened by her with the stick.

The others from Da Cai Zhai seemed to have found their organization, and they all followed behind Xiong Bufan, shouting, "Let's go see who dares to hit us."

"Boss, let's charge!"

They have a leader now; if they can't win, they can still run away.

Surrounded by everyone, Xiong Bufan arrived at the entrance of Da Cai Zhai. There were about a hundred people in front of him. Xiong Bufan raised his stick and glared at them fiercely, saying, "You're robbing me of my money?"

The second-in-command on the other side said, "Where did this stinky old woman come from? Brothers, get her!"

"The man killed the dried meat, and the woman will be your wife."

Xiong Bufan recalled a line from "Journey to the West" and shouted in a serious manner, "Men, charge! Whoever wins can skip work for a day!"

"Go, go, go."

Xiong Bufan rushed out first, with 002 protecting him from the side. However, Xiong Bufan ran too fast, and 002 couldn't catch up at all.

When the second-in-command saw a delicate young woman running towards him, he deliberately sheathed his knife and walked over with a lewd grin. "Little lady, are you in such a hurry?"

The surroundings couldn't affect Xiong Bufan in the slightest. She only knew that to catch the thief, you must first catch the leader. They had collected a lot of tolls, so the stronghold must be very wealthy, making it the perfect place for kidnapping. Thinking of this, Xiong Bufan smiled.

The two ran together, laughing and looking at each other. If you ignored the people fighting around them and the stick in Xiong Bufan's hand, you would think they were an old man and a young woman reunited after a long separation.

Xiong Bufan quickly ran over, raised the stick in his hand, and broke the second-in-command's leg. He then grabbed the man and, not expecting his leg to break so suddenly, began to scream, "Ahhhhh!"

Xiong Bufan shouted at the crowd, "Stop fighting, or I'll kill your boss!"

The fighting gradually stopped, and the people from Da Cai Zhai shouted, "Our leader is really amazing!"

A scholar-looking man on the opposite hilltop said, "Release our second-in-command, or we'll lead our men to raze the mountain stronghold to the ground."

Looking at the person in front of him, Xiong Bufan remembered that the person who owed him money was also a scholar, so he naturally didn't speak kindly. "I'm not letting him go. If you want him, pay to ransom him. I want three thousand taels of silver."

The brilliant strategist looked at the second-in-command's severed leg and said, "We can redeem him, but we must ensure that our second-in-command is whole and unharmed."

"Now that our second-in-command is injured, why don't you release him, and we'll pretend today's events never happened? What do you say?"

"No way, you wait until I've burned an incense stick, and I'll heal your second-in-command."

Xiong Bufan put the second-in-command on the ground. He often set bones for others, and he was very good at it. He would set bones for others and then exchange them for money.

Kongkong reminded Xiong Bufan: "Bufan, dislocation and bone fracture are different. Traditional Chinese medicine bone setting requires many auxiliary methods, and manipulation is only one of them. Would you like to take another look?"

Xiong Bufan said confidently, "It's just adding a few more planks. Don't worry, I can do it."

Kongkong: Are you really sure you can do that?

Xiong Bufan ripped off the second-in-command's pants with one hand. The people of Da Cai Zhai gasped and covered their eyes to watch. The strategist's smile was about to crumble. He really just wanted Xiong Bufan to release their second-in-command. Who would have thought that Xiong Bufan would be so reckless as to pull off a man's pants in public?

The second-in-command felt a chill beneath him and tried to cover himself with his outer robe. Xiong Bufan tried to pull the second-in-command's hand to the side, but he used too much force and dislocated the second-in-command's arm.

Xiong Bufan said sincerely, "I didn't mean to, you have to believe me, but it's your own fault for covering it up yourself."

"A doctor doesn't distinguish between men and women. I'm here to treat you. Don't be so petty. What's wrong with others taking a look?"

The second-in-command closed his eyes and fainted. Xiong Bufan muttered, "It saves us from needing anesthesia, that's great."

The leg was broken so badly that a piece of bone had even pierced through the skin. Xiong Bufan forcibly pressed the bone back in, only to find that the joint above it was dislocated again. Xiong Bufan tried to realign the bone again, but after that, the bone protruded once more...

Finally, Xiong Bufan broke off the extra bone and stuffed it back into the skin. The second-in-command's leg was finally set, but why did it seem shorter than everyone else's? Short legs are terrible; no matter how you look at it, it's short.

Kongkong covered her eyes; she was truly a kind-hearted beast who couldn't bear to see anything cruel.

The people of Da Cai Zhai huddled together. Their leader was truly too ruthless. Before, they thought she was amazing at breaking bones and eating bone oil, but now they only felt terrified. If they stopped working one day, would their leader break their bones and suck out their marrow? They were determined to work hard.

The strategist had never seen anything like this before and was terrified. He felt as if he had wronged the second-in-command and stammered, "Boss Xiong, I'm willing to give you money, please release our second-in-command."

Xiong Bufan shook his head and said, "I haven't cured him yet. I need to reattach his arm. A doctor's heart is benevolent."

The strategist said, "No need, Chief Xiong. We'll go back and get treatment. I'll send someone to bring you some silver. Please release our two families."

Doctors have a kind heart, and Xiong Bufan felt that she was too kind, which was why some people always wanted to bully her. She sighed and said, "Remember to settle the medical bills."

"Of course, of course, don't worry, Boss Xiong, you won't be shortchanged."

The strategist was afraid that Xiong Bufan would treat him the same way he treated the second-in-command. He didn't want to become crippled. The second-in-command had gone from being eight feet tall to six feet tall, which was frightening to look at. And with those drooping arms, he looked like a broken scarecrow.

002: "Then hurry up and go, don't keep our boss waiting."

Those who remained were all hostages; the rest went back to the mountain stronghold to report the news and retrieve the silver.

The hostages huddled together, fearful and timid. They regretted following along for the sake of making money. This was no ordinary place; it was a veritable hell on earth. Boss Xiong was even more terrifying than the King of Hell.

002's hands and feet were still shaking. Although he had seen Xiong Bufan hurt people many times, this was the first time he had seen someone torture and kill people under the guise of medical treatment. This second-in-command was even more miserable than their former master.

The people of Da Cai Zhai all went to work. They remembered that the rouge hadn't been finished yet and needed to hurry up and catch up.

Xiong Bufan's hands were still stained with blood. 002 quickly fetched a basin of water. "Bufan, wash your hands so we can go eat later."

"Okay, I want to eat pork leg bones, and I also want to eat bone marrow!"

Thinking of the second-in-command's miserable state, 002 gagged repeatedly, afraid that the water basin would be put aside.
