Thinking of this, his courage suddenly grew. "Impossible! If he were the eldest son of the Loyal and Brave Marquisate, I would chop off my head and let you kick it like a ball! Besides, those rich and powerful sons always go out with a large following, adorned with gold and silver, displaying their wealth. But look at this kid. Even though he looks a bit noble, he actually has very few valuable things on him. He doesn't look like a rich and noble young man at all. He must have made this up to trick us. Don't let him fool you."
However, the other few people still had some hesitation on their faces. They were thinking of persuading the boss to be cautious, but they were stopped by the man called the boss.
"Hey, don't you want to get married? We have no house or land, and we're so old, but we still haven't found a wife! If we get the benefits that man promised us, are we still worried about not being able to get married? I'll be the boss then. I can marry two or three girls each. But don't be scared by this kid!"
The boss spoke, brandishing his stick, his chin raised, his eyes gleaming with ruthlessness. "Get your courage up, everyone! Stop nagging me! If anyone delays my marriage, I'll kill him first."
Everyone was frightened by his combined soft and hard tactics, and even though they still had some doubts in their hearts, they dared not say a word. Well, let's take this risk with the boss. This kid doesn't look like the son of a powerful noble, so there shouldn't be any big problems.
Ye Yunxing watched their reactions, the slight joy on his face having vanished without a trace. Seeing them about to pounce again, he quickly reached out to stop them, shouting, "Wait! How much did the person who let you come to harm me do to you? I'll give you double the price." As he spoke, he pulled out his purse from his pocket and waved it before everyone's eyes.
He was so well protected by the Marquis' wife and the entire Marquisate that he didn't understand how money could move people. He naively thought that if he offered them some benefits, they would let him go. But he had no idea that when they saw that he seemed incapable of keeping the money, they became greedy and would only intensify their attacks on him.
Sure enough... seeing this, the men stopped in their tracks again. The leader glanced greedily at the money bag in his hand, hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and shouted, "Brothers, forget it! Come on! Humph, if we can just take it ourselves, will we still need this kid to give it to us?"
Seeing that the situation was not good, Ye Yunxing secretly cried out in his heart, praying in his heart: "Brother, you have to come quickly, I can't hold on any longer!"
Even though he thought so, he still had the blood of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery flowing through his veins, and the unyielding spirit within him surged up. He stuffed the purse into his arms, and taking advantage of the gap between the two men rushing over, he ducked down, slipped out from under the man's armpit like a nimble fish, and then ran away.
The man he slipped past was completely surprised that such a big man could do such an indecent thing. He was stunned for a moment. When he came to his senses and reached out to grab the corner of Ye Yunxing's clothes, he only grabbed a handful of air.
The boss was furious when he saw this and roared, "Quick, stop him!"
Ye Yunxing ran forward desperately, and the people behind him fanned out, chasing him relentlessly. For a moment, he dodged left and right, running hard, and was temporarily on par with those chasing him.
After running through another alley, Ye Yunxing looked at the people behind him who were left far behind. He felt secretly happy and secretly sighed that it was a good thing that he often played Cuju with his friends and had trained him to run, which was now useful.
However, things are unpredictable, and he let out a scream. He was not as familiar with the terrain as these ordinary people. Someone had roughly estimated his direction by following his escape route and took a shortcut to block him.
Just as he turned around with a look of joy, the man hit him hard on the shoulder with a wooden stick.
He cried out in pain. This pampered young man, who had never experienced such treatment before, felt his knees buckle and nearly collapse to his knees. Fortunately, he still retained a measure of fortitude. Despite the excruciating pain in his shoulder, he reached out to wrest the stick from the man's hand. For a moment, the two men engaged in a fierce standoff, grappling back and forth, neither willing to yield.
He was now cornered, with pursuers pressing in from behind and people in front trying to stop him. He knew that if he didn't stop the man in front of him, he would soon be caught up by the people behind him.
But the man in front of him was tall and strong, full of brute force, and he was not someone he could easily deal with. Ye Yunxing listened to the footsteps behind him gradually approaching and becoming clearer, and his heart was instantly shrouded in despair. He once again called out to his eldest brother in his heart: Brother, why don’t you come quickly!
He didn't expect to knock this man down at this moment, and only thought about avoiding him and continuing to run. But who knew that this man had no intention of letting him go at all, and he was clinging to him tightly, making it impossible for him to avoid him easily.
At this critical moment, he suddenly remembered what his elder brother had once told him: "Attack the opponent's three-point weakness." In a physical confrontation, the lower body is often the weakest point. If one is outmatched and faces a head-on victory, one should seize this crucial point and attack the opponent's lower body. This may offer a glimmer of hope and turn the tide. While this man may be strong, he is not a martial arts expert, and his lower body is likely unstable. With this thought in mind, he raised his foot without hesitation and delivered a powerful kick to the man's lower body.
Sure enough, the man's legs bent and he was kicked to his knees without any preparation.
A glimmer of hope ignited in Ye Yunxing's heart. He didn't dare look back to see if he was catching up. He just rushed forward. However, this time, his luck seemed to have run out...
