It has to be said, this little rascal's mouth is like it's been blessed.

He had barely finished speaking when the courtyard gate was pushed open. The shady characters from the gambling den immediately rushed in, terrifying the three people in the room so much that they didn't dare to breathe.

"It's raining so hard, and they still insist we look for someone, really!"

"You're right! We're soaked to the bone, let's take shelter here for a while!"

The two men closed the courtyard gate, put down their weapons, and sat down behind the gate.

"With the rain so heavy, where could that young lady have run off to?"

"I'm wondering the same thing. We've searched all around here, and we haven't found a single hair!"

"I'm saying, could it be that the officials at the dock tricked us? What if Shen Congxin's young lady didn't come this way at all, but went somewhere else instead?"

"That's possible..."

The two sat behind the door in silence for a while, but the rain not only did not lessen, it even became more torrential.

“I said this rain is going to keep going, and it’s not a good idea for us to stay here any longer.”

"Then tell me, where should we go?"

"Haven't you heard? The prostitutes around here at the docks are really good at entertaining. Why don't we give it a try?"

The two men became incredibly excited when they started talking about this topic.

"Well, there's nothing else to do here anyway."

"let's go."

After agreeing on their destination, the two immediately got up, picked up their weapons, and prepared to head out.

But just then, the little rascal hiding behind the door breathed a sigh of relief and accidentally bumped into a wooden shelf in the room. The rusty copper basin on it immediately fell to the ground.

The loud noise immediately drew the two people outside the door back to their room.

"Who's in there?"

"Get out here right now!"

The two men exchanged a glance, roared at the room, and approached step by step, knives in hand.

As the two were about to reach the door, the three people behind the door were already panicking.

The little rascal knew that if he didn't touch the wooden frame, they wouldn't be discovered.

"Please take good care of my sister." He took off the amulet he was wearing around his neck, stuffed it into Shen Juanxin's hand, snatched the harpoon from Xi'er's hand, and then pushed open the door.

"Who are you? How dare you come to my house!" The sly boy, holding a harpoon, shouted at the two men who were much taller than him, "Get out of here right now!" Although he said this, his hand holding the harpoon and his legs were actually shaking uncontrollably.

"Oh ho, who do we think it is? Turns out it's just a little beggar on the street!"

"I'm not a little beggar!" the little rascal immediately retorted.

"Forget it, he's just a little beggar, there's nothing to gain from him." One of them was clearly not interested in the sly fellow, because he had neither money nor a woman on him.

Hearing his companion say this, the other man smiled smirkly at the sly little beggar and said, "You're lucky today, sir. I have important business to attend to and don't intend to bother with a little beggar like you." With that, he turned around and prepared to leave.

Seeing this, the little rascal didn't dare to say a word, but just gripped the harpoon tightly, his hand sweating from nervousness...

But as soon as he stepped outside, the man felt something was amiss. Suddenly, he turned around and came back.

"What are you doing?" the sly boy asked warily, gripping the harpoon.

"Hey, what are you doing?" The man's companion also didn't understand his actions.

"Is there anyone else inside?" But he ignored that and just looked at the little rascal and asked.

"No, no." The little rascal was still young and had no experience in dealing with people; everything was written all over his face.

Seeing how nervous he was, the two concluded that there must be someone hiding inside.

"Get out of my way! What are you doing? This is my house!" The sly fellow saw the two men approaching with wicked smiles and brandished a harpoon, trying to force them back.

But these people were actually the underlings that Lin Boguang had been recruiting over the years.

They all had some cases on their hands, and when faced with the little rascal's childish tricks, they disarmed him with just one hand and kicked him hard!

The little rascal was still young and malnourished, so he was shorter than his peers.

The kick to his abdomen made his stomach churn violently, and he immediately vomited a mouthful of acidic fluid...

"Young lady, are you inside?" Two gamblers, brandishing knives, approached the door.

The little rascal watched from the side, his heart pounding in his chest!

"Hehe, found it~"

One of the two peeked out and, sure enough, saw Shen Juanxin, who was terrified and limp on the ground, behind the door.

"Young lady, you've really made us brothers search high and low!"

The man rubbed his hands together, looking lewd.

But the next moment, a loud "bang" rang out, and a pottery jar smashed open above the man's head, with shattered porcelain shards and a large amount of dust scattering everywhere.

"Ouch! Who attacked me?!"

The man immediately collapsed to the ground, clutching his already bleeding hair and wailing.

"Sister Juanxin, let's go quickly!"

Seeing this, Xi'er quickly stepped forward, wanting to pull Shen Juanxin away to escape.

But she was immediately grabbed by the other one of the two men and slapped hard to the ground!

"Trying to run? Have you asked the old man for the knife you have yet!" The man held up the knife, spat on Xi'er, and cursed, "You're such a slut! If it weren't for the fact that you can still give me pleasure, I would have already chopped you down!"

"Don't hurt her!" Shen Juanxin said, though she was terrified. "The person you're trying to capture is me. Let them both go!"

"Hehe, little lady, you smell so good!" Upon seeing the pitiful Shen Juanxin, the man could not suppress his lust and immediately pressed down on her, intending to take advantage of her.

Shen Juanxin struggled desperately, and the man slapped her hard across the face, leaving a red five-finger mark on her fair and tender skin.

"I'm warning you, you better not resist me. Cooperate with me properly. If you make me feel good, I'll let those two brats go. If you make me feel bad, I'll kill them right now!"

Shen Juanxin was so frightened that she was at a loss and her whole body was trembling. When the man saw this, he immediately stepped forward with a wicked smile.

It was at this moment that the little rascal outside secretly got up, grabbed a harpoon, and came up behind him.

"Boom!"

A clap of thunder sounded, and suddenly the sky was bright.

Before the harpoon in his hand could fall, the man who had just hit him on the head noticed it and kicked him away.

"I saved your life, so I should go first!"

"Enough with the nonsense, I'll go close the door, let's enjoy ourselves!"

"it is good!"
