Li Yu had originally given Song Min and the others two crossbows, but they were both very basic and crude versions.
Song Min took one herself, and the other she gave to Xiao Pang.
Just now, it was Xiao Pang who had shot wide, and she now lowered her head in embarrassment, re-nocking an arrow, intending to shoot again.
However, that man was very clever; he didn't walk directly on the road but instead went around a building, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Xiao Pang stomped her foot in frustration, looking agitatedly in that direction, eager to try again.
Song Min looked at the two somewhat dazed students and asked, "Do you know the way? Song Qi is in their hands right now, right?" In her words, her entire being seemed to carry an indescribable aura that made the two students' hearts tremble slightly.
"Ye-ye-yes, we know. It's not far from here, just over by the wholesale market, very close. But there are a lot of them!"
"A lot of them? How many?" Song Min's eyes flickered as she asked.
"Looks like there are about ten or so, and they're really fierce..." Fear showed in the expressions of the two students.
Song Min pondered for a moment, looked at the sisters around her, and frowned.
She could take a risk, but she couldn't risk the lives of the sisters who trusted her. So she turned to them and said, "Sisters, I'm going to save my younger brother, my biological brother. I must go, there might be danger. I have to go, but you don't have to come with me to risk it."
After speaking, she took a step forward, seemingly waiting for the others' reactions.
Xiao Pang and the lively young girl immediately stood by Song Min's side and said, "Song Jie, if it weren't for you, we might not have survived. Wherever you go, I go!"
"That's right, Song Jie, if it wasn't for you during the last zombie tide, we probably would have died," the lively girl said.
The other few women seemed hesitant, but upon hearing what the two said, the hesitation in their eyes instantly turned into determination. They all stepped forward as well.
"Song Jie."
"Song Jie."
"Song Jie, we'll go with you to rescue your brother."
"Yes, Song Jie, we're not afraid. There's nothing that can scare us now."
"We're not even afraid of death, so why would we be afraid of these scoundrels?"
"Well said!"
"Exactly!"
The crowd was stirred, as if a fire had been ignited, and a different kind of light burst forth in their eyes. In this apocalyptic world, as women, they were originally the weaker sex.
No, even before the apocalypse, many people felt that women were the weaker sex, so their gaze always carried a hint of looking down on the weak.
But now, they had faced painful experiences, struggled in the apocalypse, and endured all kinds of hardships time and time again.
Death! They weren't even afraid of that, so what else was there to fear?
Perhaps the only thing that could scare them was themselves.
Song Jie led them, making them understand that in this world, they had to fight for themselves with their own hands!
Song Min looked at these sisters, whose eyes were bursting with light, and she was deeply moved!
So, she bowed deeply to these people!
But she didn't speak; in this situation, any words would be pale. However, Song Min's bow already expressed her gratitude.
"Let's go!" Song Min took the lead, pulling the two male students, making them walk first.
The two male students were conflicted; they had witnessed the terror of that group, and now they had to go back. Their hearts were in turmoil.
Seemingly seeing the conflict in the two male students' hearts, Song Min and the others looked at them with a hint of disdain. The act of abandoning companions and fleeing alone, even with various reasons, as long as they were companions who could be abandoned, this behavior made them feel ashamed.
Thus, a hint of contempt seemed to be added to their gaze towards the two male students.
Song Min took out her knife and pointed it at the two. Before she could even speak, the two male students voluntarily walked forward.
Indeed, they were very sensible!
Heh!
Song Min and the others followed the two male students towards the wholesale market.
At this moment, Big Gold Tooth and his group had completely taken control of the situation. Whether it was Teacher Liu, Song Qi, or the two young girls, they had all been subdued.
Especially when Big Gold Tooth walked up the steps and saw the windows filled with food items, he felt that the trip was well worth it.
"Haha, you really are my lucky stars; you didn't make me come for nothing," Big Gold Tooth turned and said with a laugh to Teacher Liu.
Teacher Liu's face was full of anger, wanting to say something, but the two men holding her instantly twisted her elbows with force, making her unable to speak from the pain.
And Song Qi, who was being stepped on, was even more defiant, wanting to struggle with all his might, but those men would not let him succeed.
Seeing Song Qi trying to struggle, one of them kicked Song Qi hard in the waist, a piercing pain that made a look of agony appear on Song Qi's face.
"You, you, what exactly do you want to do?" The cute-faced young girl said tremblingly when she saw this scene.
"Little sister, Uncle is going to give you a lesson today."
Hearing the words spewing from Big Gold Tooth's dog-like mouth, Teacher Liu's expression was full of anxiety and regret. She wished she hadn't come out. Perhaps then, she wouldn't have met them.
However, sometimes, man proposes, God disposes. Weakness, perhaps, is a kind of original sin.
Big Gold Tooth looked at Teacher Liu, who was being held down, and a strange light appeared in his eyes.
He licked his lips, rubbing his hands, wanting to get closer, intending to take advantage of her.
Meanwhile, Mr. Wen Zhong and the young man, who had been driving the car, showed a hint of unbearable pity in their expressions.
"Qiang Ge, this... this, sigh," the young man said.
Mr. Wen Zhong sighed. They had tried their best to slack off earlier. When Big Gold Tooth told them to attack Teacher Liu and the others, they deliberately slacked off, which also gave the two male students a chance to escape.
He found this scene unbearable, but there was nothing he could do, so he said, "Don't meddle in other people's business. We can't save them. If we save them, what about my family in the city?"
Watching Big Gold Tooth get closer and closer to Teacher Liu, he provocatively lifted Teacher Liu's chin with a finger.
Just then, the man who had gone to chase the escaping male students returned.
His face was full of panic. Due to constantly running, he stumbled in, looking somewhat disheveled.
He couldn't stop his momentum and bumped into Big Gold Tooth, who was about to walk towards Teacher Liu.
"Ouch!" Big Gold Tooth exclaimed.
"What the hell are you doing? What are you trying to do, panicking like that? Damn it! Where are those two? And where are those two students?" Big Gold Tooth looked at the disheveled man in front of him and said angrily.
The man gasped violently twice, recovering for five or six seconds.
Just as Big Gold Tooth's patience was about to run out, the man, out of breath, said, "Th-they, they, they were rescued! It, it, it was a group of women! Besides me, Jie Ge and the others were all killed!"
