Chapter 373 The consequences of playing the hero, isn't it satisfying?
"Oh? Judging by your attitude, you're really going to get me today? Brother, in the end, the stuff isn't yours anyway. These days, only a fool would meddle in other people's business! Look at all those people outside the hospital, who cares? So what if you can fight? This knife in my hand isn't fake."
"You mean the knife? It's not fake, but you're holding it wrong," Li Xiangyang said casually, a hint of sarcasm in his voice. "If you use too much force, your wrist will shake."
The robber was visibly taken aback, then flew into a rage: "Stop your damn nonsense! We've come this far, and you're still pretending! Do you really think I'm alone?"
Just then, footsteps came from the alley entrance, and two men slipped in, one holding a wooden stick and the other holding a piece of iron pipe.
"Hey Lao Liu, what's going on? Who's this kid?" the man with the wooden stick shouted at the robber.
Li Xiangyang narrowed his eyes slightly, understanding dawning on him.
It turns out it was a gang crime, no wonder no one dared to do anything about it.
"Damn it, what bad luck! Brother! This kid's a busybody, he's been chasing me all the way here!" The robber's voice became full of confidence.
"Kid, you're asking for it?" The burly man with the iron pipe grinned maliciously and took a step forward. "Mind your own business, you know that?"
Li Xiangyang stood motionless, a cold smile playing on his lips: "Oh? What will be the outcome? I'm really curious to know today."
"Damn it, you won't listen to reason, so you'll have to suffer the consequences!" the burly man with the iron pipe roared, raising his pipe to smash it down on Li Xiangyang's head.
Li Xiangyang dodged the attack with a swift movement.
His years of experience chasing prey in the mountains and forests made him exceptionally agile.
The iron pipe missed its target, causing the burly man to stumble and lose his balance.
In that instant, Li Xiangyang seized the opportunity, acted swiftly, grabbed the big man's wrist, and twisted it forcefully.
"Ah!" A scream rang out as the iron pipe fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
Without pausing, Li Xiangyang used the force of twisting his wrist to turn to the side and deliver a powerful knee strike to the big man's abdomen.
The burly man groaned, bent over, and collapsed to the ground, unable to get up.
"Big brother!" The man with the wooden stick shouted when he saw this, and rushed forward, brandishing the stick.
This time, Li Xiangyang didn't dodge, but went to meet him head-on.
As the wooden stick came crashing down on him, he raised his left arm to block it, while at the same time his right hand grabbed the stick with lightning speed and pulled it sharply.
Caught off guard, the man leaned forward, and Li Xiangyang seized the opportunity to kick him in the knee.
With a "crack," the man screamed in pain and fell to his knees.
Li Xiangyang snatched the wooden stick, tossed it aside, and turned to face the robber who had initially been holding the dagger.
The robber was completely dumbfounded, his dagger trembling in his hand.
Seeing that Li Xiangyang had dealt with his two accomplices in the blink of an eye, and with ruthless efficiency, he panicked instantly.
"Now, put your bag down and squat down." Li Xiangyang's voice was icy cold, devoid of any emotion.
The robber's eyes darted around, his grip on the knife tightening, as if he still wanted to struggle: "Why...why should I listen to you? Don't come any closer!"
Li Xiangyang remained silent and took a step forward.
This step seemed to strike the robber's heart. He quickly retreated, only to find that there was a wall behind him.
"B-Big brother, let's talk this out..." The robber's tone softened immediately.
Li Xiangyang sneered: "Weren't you quite tough just now?"
As he spoke, he suddenly rushed forward, grabbed the robber's wrist holding the knife, and twisted it forcefully.
"Ah!" the robber screamed, the dagger fell to the ground, and his wrist was twisted red.
Li Xiangyang bent down to pick up the stolen handbag, while his other hand remained firmly restraining the robber.
Just as Li Xiangyang subdued the robber and picked up his handbag, the woman whose bag had been snatched chased after him, panting, to the alley entrance.
A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes when she saw the handbag in Li Xiangyang's hand.
"Great, my bag!" the woman shouted, and rushed toward Li Xiangyang.
"Danger, stop..."
Li Xiangyang tried to speak up to stop the woman, but it was too late.
As the woman approached, the man who had just been knocked down by Li Xiangyang and was holding the iron pipe reached out and grabbed the woman's ankle.
Caught off guard, the woman fell forward to the ground.
The man then stood up, grabbed the woman's hair and pulled her up, tightly choking her neck with his arm. He pulled a small knife from his waist, pressed it against the woman's neck, and roared fiercely, "Kid, let go of my brother, put your hands behind your head, and squat down obediently. If you don't obey, I'll kill her!"
Seeing that Li Xiangyang remained unmoved, the man grinned maliciously and pressed the knife closer to the woman's neck. "What? You think I wouldn't dare? Put your hands on your head! Kneel down!"
Seeing that the blade had already left a faint red mark on the woman's delicate skin, Li Xiangyang's expression changed instantly.
He knew that if he didn't do as he was told, the woman's situation would become even more dangerous.
But if you do as they say, they will only become more aggressive.
However, at this moment, he had no other choice.
“Okay, don’t hurt her, I’ll do as you say.” Li Xiangyang released the robber, then put his hands on his head and slowly squatted down.
Seeing Li Xiangyang give in, the robber who had been subdued by him snatched the bag and ran towards his companion.
"Damn it, daring to meddle in other people's business! Third brother, go teach him a lesson!"
At the man's command, the other man who had been knocked down picked up his iron pipe and limped toward Li Xiangyang.
Li Xiangyang squatted there quietly, his eyes fixed on the man threatening the woman with a knife.
He was waiting, waiting for an opportunity.
"Hey kid, try being stubborn again! See how I deal with you!"
"Boom!"
The iron pipe landed heavily on Li Xiangyang, making a dull thud.
Li Xiangyang groaned, but did not resist. He only swayed slightly, but remained in a squatting position.
"Hahaha! Weren't you supposed to be a tough fighter? Why are you chickening out now?"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The iron pipe fell on Li Xiangyang one after another, each blow causing his body to tremble violently.
But he never fell down, nor did he resist.
"Stop! You beasts!" the woman cried out, struggling desperately, but the man tightened his grip even more.
"Shut up! Move again, and I'll wipe you out!" the man roared fiercely. "Sixth Brother, what are you standing there for? Can't you see he's not having it? Go help your Third Brother."
At the command of the man with the knife, Lao Liu picked up a wooden stick and stepped forward.
Two men took turns beating Li Xiangyang, iron pipes and wooden sticks falling on his body with dull thuds.
Large beads of sweat appeared on Li Xiangyang's forehead, and his face was pale, but he gritted his teeth and persevered without collapsing.
"How are you feeling? Mind your own business!"
"Damn it, you think you can chase after me? I'll beat you to a pulp!"
"Hmph, I thought you were some kind of tough guy, but we still beat you to a pulp. Kid, how does it feel to try to be a hero?"
