Chapter 171: One hundred and seventy-one, Lessons Chapter 171: One hundred and seventy-one, Lessons Song Yan Ning frowned displeasedly and walked towards the direction that the old lady had just pointed out, “Let’s go.” She had originally intended to spare them, but since they insisted on bothering her, they couldn’t blame her for showing no mercy.
The old lady and the old man exchanged a smile and followed Song Yan Ning. If they could take this girl back, she would definitely sell for a high price. It was their first time seeing a girl who was as delicate and lovely as her.
“It’s that noodle shop up ahead,” the old lady pointed to a simple storefront ahead with the words “Noodle Shop” on the sign. They had only rented this facade yesterday to make it easier for them to deceive compassionate girls. They would lure the girls into the noodle shop, tie them up, and then take them away at night, selling them to the mountains or abroad.
Song Yan Ning entered the noodle shop and saw that there were only two square tables and a few chairs inside; the entire hall was empty, without a single customer.
In a corner, a woman in a floral shirt was squatting there picking vegetables. As she saw Song Yan Ning coming in, a cold smile flashed in the woman’s eyes. This girl was even more beautiful than the other girls they had tricked before. She needed to plan carefully to sell her at a good price.
“Bang!” a sound echoed, the old man who had followed her in pulled down the rolling door behind Song Yan Ning, and suddenly the surroundings plunged into darkness.
Song Yan Ning placed the cake she was holding onto the table and looked at the people in the room without giving away her feelings. As a cultivator, her vision would not be affected even in the dark.
“Click!” The light in the room was turned on, instantly illuminating the whole room and the expressions of the people within.
The woman shook the vegetable leaves off her hands and stood up, walking in front of Song Yan Ning. Seeing Song Yan Ning’s calm demeanor, some surprise stirred in her heart, “Aren’t you a bit scared?” This little girl was younger than the other girls they had tricked before. Those girls, upon realizing they had been deceived, would scream and cry, begging them to let them go.
But this little girl, from the moment she entered, her expression had not changed, showing none of them in her eyes. To say this little girl could escape from here, she didn’t believe it. No matter how talented she was at such a young age, she couldn’t possibly be more formidable than them, especially not with just the three people in this room.
Song Yan Ning sat down at a table and casually brushed away a few strands of hair that covered her eyes, “It’s not too late for you to let me go now.”
The woman let out a cold laugh, “Go? You think you can leave after entering here? If you know what’s good for you, you’ll obediently listen, that’ll make things less hard for you.”
The woman gave a signal to the old man behind Song Yan Ning.
The old man nodded, walked to the side, and took a length of rope from the drawer, approaching Song Yan Ning. Perhaps this little girl hadn’t realized yet how dangerous her situation was. Once he tied her up and gave her a fright, she would definitely understand fear.
Song Yan Ning shook her head and sighed, “I was originally willing to spare you a way out.”
The old man reached Song Yan Ning, intending to tie her up with the rope, when suddenly a severe pain exploded in his stomach, and before he could react, he was sent flying through the air.
The woman and the old lady watched the scene in disbelief. How could a child possess such great strength to kick a grown man into the air?
Regaining her senses, the woman quickly shouted into the interior, “Brother Si, Liu Zi, come out quickly!” She felt she had underestimated this little girl, but no matter how fierce she was, she couldn’t possibly beat Brother Si and Liu Zi, who both had blood on their hands and were hardened desperadoes.
A series of footstep sounds came, and two men, one tall and one short, ran out.
“What happened?” Sige glanced at the old man who had fainted on the ground and immediately understood. He had also heard the disturbance just now and thought it was one of their own reprimanding the newly captured girl, but he didn’t expect to encounter someone tough this time.
Looking at Song Yan Ning, Sige was slightly taken aback. Judging by her age, she couldn’t be more than twelve or thirteen years old. How could she possibly have knocked Old Zhao unconscious?
“Old Zhao just went to tie her up, and she kicked him out with one foot,” the old lady said with a horrified face as she looked at Song Yan Ning. She really couldn’t understand how this delicate-looking little girl could have so much strength?
“It’s just a little girl, right? I’ll go tie her up,” Liu Zi said dismissively as he glanced at Old Zhao on the ground. The older you get, the less useful you are, even getting knocked out by a little girl.
Sige also felt Liu Zi was right. Maybe this little girl had learned some rudimentary kung fu, like Taekwondo, but at most, she had only learned the basics. They had been through life and death, and the kung fu in their hands was for killing. Surely they could deal with a girl of about ten years old.
Seeing Liu Zi walking toward her, Song Yan Ning lightly kicked at the ground, and the chair in front of her flew out, smashing toward Liu Zi. She was planning to hand these people over to the police later.
Liu Zi didn’t expect Song Yan Ning to make a move. He couldn’t dodge in time and was hit squarely by the flying chair, uttering a muffled grunt as he fell to the ground and fainted.
Sige was startled and realized that he had underestimated Song Yan Ning. He drew the dagger from his waist and charged at Song Yan Ning. The little girl had taken Liu Zi down with a single move; her fighting power was definitely stronger than he had imagined.
The women and old lady watched nervously, wanting to help but not knowing how. They had been in this business for so long and had never encountered such a formidable prey.
Song Yan Ning sat in her original place, her slender fingers lightly tapping the table’s surface, her expression carrying a hint of coldness and a touch of mockery as she watched Sige charge at her.
Just as Sige was about to reach her, Song Yan Ning raised her hand and threw a punch.
Sige didn’t even get a chance to stab with his dagger before he was sent flying by Song Yan Ning’s punch, only stopping when his back hit the wall.
A trail of bright red liquid slid from the corner of Sige’s mouth. His eyes, filled with horror and disbelief, fixed on Song Yan Ning, “Who are you?”
Song Yan Ning didn’t pay attention to Sige but turned to look at the old lady and the woman, smiling at them without a trace of warmth.
The old lady and woman suddenly felt a chill rising from the soles of their feet, crawling over their bodies like caterpillars, chilling to the bone. If they had known this little girl was so powerful, they would never have captured her. They truly regretted it now!
Song Yan Ning stood up and picked up the cake from the table, “I gave you a chance, it’s not my fault you didn’t cherish it. The police will be here soon.” She had already called the police with her mobile phone before entering the noodle house.
Approaching the door, Song Yan Ning bent down and with a slight effort of one hand, the rolled-down shutter door clicked as she pulled it up, the blinding sunlight from outside piercing through, making the entire room bright.
