So satisfying! The Great Demon King wiped out everyone equally!
Chapter 107 Doomsday Catastrophe, the Holy Mother Who Was Cut Off Twice (14)
Lying on the ground, Xia's father looked miserable and said to Shen Tang, "Shen Tang, look at my miserable life. I, Xia Kui, raised such a daughter, and now our whole family has been kicked out. We have nothing to eat, nothing to drink, and nowhere to go. What are we going to do?" As he spoke, he glanced at Shen Tang's reaction. Xia's mother, along with Liu Ru and her family of three, were sobbing beside him, looking quite pitiful.
Shen Tang was now in a dilemma. At this time, food was king in the neighborhood; laws and morals didn't matter at all. If he invited the entire Xia family back to his home, his wife would definitely scold him to death.
Shen Tang composed himself and said seriously, "Xia Kui, sister-in-law, I've already told everyone in the neighborhood about what happened to your family. Everyone is condemning your daughter now, so I've done you a big favor."
"Oh right, my mom needs a diaper change, I have to go right now." After saying that, Shen Tang ran home as fast as lightning before the Xia family could say anything, afraid of being pestered by them.
Watching Shen Tang's departing figure, Xia's father pounded his chest in anger: "What's wrong with people these days? They have no compassion at all! Our family has been through so much, and Shen Tang didn't even bother to help us!"
Xia's mother also cried out, "That's right, how did the world become like this?" Liu Ru also cried and complained, "That damned girl is such an ingrate! She kicked us out, and now we have nowhere to eat and nowhere to go. What are we going to do? My poor Xiaoyu!"
The Xia family members kept criticizing Canglan and Shen Tang, even though Shen Tang had just stood up for them. They complained that people nowadays had no compassion.
Canglan was happy to have some peace and quiet, letting Xiaobai report on the Xia family's tragic situation every three days. She herself spent her time cultivating and deeply studying the Eighteen Forms of Flying Knives and the Dog-Beating Stick Technique...
Xiao Bai's report today: ["Host, Xia Weijie told Scarface that you've never left the house and have stockpiled a lot of food. They're coming to cause you trouble."]
"Come on! It's time to settle this!"
It turns out that not long ago, Xia Weijie and his family of three, along with the two elderly people, went to stay with Scarface in the neighborhood.
Scarface was no pushover. He had previously served time in prison for murder and had just been released when this natural disaster struck. A former thug, he was ruthless and led a gang that terrorized the neighborhood. They robbed people of their food and supplies, beating and even killing anyone who resisted. Scarface further exploited attractive women, using threats and inducements to force them to join their ranks for food.
Scarface was named after the long scar on his face. He was a notorious bully in the neighborhood because of his ferocity and the number of his men.
Because of the "unlucky card," none of Xia Weijie's actions were ever successful.
Scarface's team was planning to ambush and steal food from the neighboring community when Xia Weijie tripped over his own feet and fell flat on his face with a thud, yelling loudly. The noise immediately gave away the entire team, and the mission ended in failure. The people who had been with Xia Weijie, having run out of food, rushed at him and beat him up.
And every time they went to steal food, those people would specifically target Xia Weijie, beating him black and blue and stealing his things. So every time he went out to steal food, he would return empty-handed, only to be brutally beaten upon his return, suffering both new and old injuries, and starving to the point of being practically starving.
Liu Ru, because she looked older, escaped this fate and wasn't chosen by Scarface and his gang. Instead, she was assigned to cook for this group of people. However, Liu Ru wasn't honest and tried to sneak food with Xia Yu. They were caught red-handed and severely beaten, with both mother and son losing a hand.
Xia's parents fared even worse. They did the hardest and most tiring work every day, but all they got in return was a moldy bun or a bite of biscuit.
The Xia family thought joining Scarface's gang would guarantee them food, but all they got every day was beatings and hunger. In contrast, they thought of Xia Shanmei, who had driven them out. Why was Xia Shanmei living comfortably at home, enjoying a life of luxury, while they suffered like this? Why didn't she have to endure this?
Xia's father's face darkened, and he said viciously, "Weijie, report to Scarface that Xia Shanmei must have a lot of supplies. We've ended up like this, Xia Shanmei should also taste this bitterness."
Xia's father's method was unanimously approved by the Xia family. The next day, Xia Weijie found Scarface and said with a fawning expression, "Scarface, I know someone who has a lot of food and supplies, probably more than anywhere else."
Scarface and his buddies immediately perked up and asked, "Who?"
Xia Weijie gritted his teeth and replied, "It's my sister, Xia Shanmei. She kicked our family out and must have embezzled a lot of supplies. And how could a girl like her possibly finish all that food? She must have had a lot in stock." As he finished speaking, Xia Weijie's eyes were filled with the smug satisfaction and ruthlessness of a successful plan.
Upon hearing Xia Weijie's words, Scarface and his brothers exchanged glances, their eyes filled with suspicion and greed. After a moment, Scarface seemed to decide to trust Xia Weijie this time. He glared fiercely at Xia Weijie, waved his hand, and said sternly, "Lead the way! If we don't find the supplies, you can forget about your life!"
Upon hearing this, Xia Weijie's heart tightened, and his body involuntarily trembled slightly. But he quickly tried to remain calm and stammered, "Scarface, she definitely has food. I wouldn't dare lie."
Scarface snorted and said, "I bet you wouldn't dare lie." Then, the group set off in a grand procession.
Xia Weijie strode confidently at the front of the group, absolutely certain that Cang Lan had food. He was sure that if he could steal her food, his family's status in Scarface's group would rise dramatically. At that point, getting a full meal would be a piece of cake, and Scarface would even give her a beating. Just thinking about it made Xia Weijie's smugness impossible to hide.
Soon, the group arrived at Canglan's door in a grand procession. Xia Weijie stood in front of the door, banging on it aggressively while shouting, "Xia Shanmei, come out now! Don't hide, we all know you're in there. You've hidden a lot of food. If you open the door now, Scarface might spare your life." However, only silence answered him.
Xia Weijie's shouts went unanswered, which enraged one of Scarface's henchmen, who kicked Xia Weijie and yelled, "Get lost!"
Xia Weijie quickly got up, repeatedly saying, "Yes, yes, yes."
Then, the henchman started banging on the door, and it burst open in no time. Everyone rushed in, only to find a table laden with steaming fried chicken, pork knuckle, ribs…
This instantly made the underlings, who hadn't eaten meat in a long time, envious. One of them hurriedly said to Scarface, "Boss, there really is plenty of food, and it's meat!"
