As they talked,

the two of them had driven into the territory of Baishui Village.

Because the village road was rather narrow,

they parked their car at the side of the main road and proceeded on foot into the village.

It just so happened to be midday, and there weren't many people coming and going in the village. Soon, Su Jianren led Chen Fang to the front of a courtyard.

The courtyard was quite large.

It was divided in the middle by a wall.

Su Jianren said that the courtyard on the left was usually where Sun Congmin's brother, Sun Congjun, lived.

At that time, the door was tightly closed, clearly indicating no one was at home.

The courtyard on the right with the door open, however, was Sun Congmin's home, and Tian Xinran, the woman whom Xie Liang had heroically saved, lived inside.

"Jianren, keep an eye out here, while I go take a look,"

Chen Fang said.

After Su Jianren nodded, Chen Fang entered the courtyard.

Village courtyards are often messy, but this one was tidily kept; firewood, miscellaneous items, and even farming tools were all neatly sorted and placed.

Directly opposite was a two-story building.

Currently in its bare red brick state, it was apparent that the building wasn't constructed long ago.

"Who are you looking for?"

Suddenly, a woman's voice came from behind.

Chen Fang quickly turned around.

He saw a woman dressed in loose, casual home wear.

This woman must be Tian Xinran.

On the way here, Su Jianren had mentioned that Tian Xinran was known as a beauty in Dashi Town. Chen Fang had thought it an exaggeration, but now that he saw her, indeed, it was true.

The clothes she wore looked very old, loose and baggy, probably worn for many years.

Her hair was simply done up.

Although she looked like a country villager, her face was still delicate and tender.

She was slightly plump.

Yet it didn't make her look bloated, instead giving a sense of fullness.

"Hello, you are Ms. Tian Xinran, right? My name is Chen Fang, and I'm from the city. I have some matters I'd like to inquire about,"

Chen Fang introduced himself.

Tian Xinran's face flickered with panic.

However, it was only momentary.

She set down her broom and said expressionlessly, "Then come in with me."

After entering the main room,

Chen Fang noticed that the furnishings were very simple: an eight-immortal table in the middle and nothing else, completely bare.

Tian Xinran moved a couple of small stools.

One for Chen Fang, and she sat down on the other one, dusting off some dirt from her clothes, and said, "What would you like to know? Go ahead and ask."

Just as Chen Fang sat down,

he looked toward Tian Xinran.

At that moment, a small detail struck him.

Previously too far away to see clearly,

now with Tian Xinran right in front of him, Chen Fang realized that she was probably not wearing a bra under her top. After sitting down, her loose clothes tightened around her.

The two large mounds on her chest were outlined in full shape.

The two protrusions in the middle were particularly noticeable.

But that wasn't all.

The main issue was with the lower half of her body.

When Tian Xinran sat down, she casually pulled at her pants.

The thin fabric clung tightly to her body, and the crease of her lower half was also tightly outlined, most importantly, that area seemed somewhat damp.

Knowing it was rude to stare,

Chen Fang quickly averted his gaze.

Just as he was about to ask a question,

Chen Fang suddenly sensed something was off.

Tian Xinran was looking fearfully over his shoulder, and there seemed to be a shadow blocking the sunlight coming in from behind him.

He instinctively wanted to get up,

but it was already too late.

He only felt a whoosh by his ear.

Then.

He didn't know what it was, but something hit his head hard.

Darkness fell, and he knew nothing more.

...

When he opened his eyes.

Darkness surrounded him.

Through the dimness, he could smell a damp odor.

The pain in his head continued as he tried to get up from the ground, only to realize that his hands were hugging a pillar, and his wrists were tied together behind his back.

"Is anyone there?"

Chen Fang called out tentatively.

There was no response.

Just as he was about to call out a second time.

Click.

A dim light flickered on.

The scene before him was instantly clear.

It was a wooden hut.

The walls around him were made of thick logs, with various ropes, saws, hammers, and other tools hanging on them, and his hands were tied to a wooden beam supporting the hut.

Directly in front of him was a rough wooden table and a few chairs.

He was leaning against a bed constructed of wood, covered with what seemed like dirty bedding. Beyond that, there was nothing else.

At that moment, the wooden door creaked open.

A cold wind rushed in.

Two people, a man and a woman, entered one after the other.

The man led the way.

He appeared to be in his forties, face covered with a scruffy beard.

His eyes were mismatched, one larger than the other.

Especially the larger one; it looked abnormal, as if it couldn't move.

Without an introduction, Chen Fang knew this was Sun Congjun, Sun Congmin's brother.

On the way here, Chen Fang had gleaned some information about Sun Congjun. Su Jianren had said that the elder brother was usually straightforward and quiet. He had gone hunting in the mountains years ago and had been poked in the eye by a tree branch, which left him blind in one eye.

It seemed that the person who had attacked him in the village was Sun Congjun.

Sun Congjun was not particularly imposing.

He was probably just under one meter seventy.

However, he was holding an old-fashioned double-barreled shotgun, and upon entering, he aimed it straight at Chen Fang.

The one who came in with him was none other than Tian Xinran, still wearing the same thin clothes she had worn during their encounter earlier in the day, standing emotionless behind Sun Congjun.

"What do you want to do?"

Chen Fang asked.

Sun Congjun didn't say a word.

He stood up.

Approached Chen Fang, suddenly raised his leg, and kicked Chen Fang in the stomach.

Chen Fang curled up in pain.

Cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

"Quiet, I don't like noise,"

Sun Congjun said fiercely.

Seeing that Chen Fang's eyes were still fixed on him,

Sun Congjun raised the stock of his shotgun, about to smash it down.

Tian Xinran grabbed Sun Congjun's arm, saying, "Brother, stop hitting him. Haven't their orders come through yet? It'd be bad if someone got killed."

Sun Congjun suddenly turned around.

Pulled off Tian Xinran's hand and pushed her forcefully, causing Tian Xinran to stagger and fall to the ground.

Sun Congjun pointed the shotgun directly at Tian Xinran on the ground and scolded, "You slut, seeing him young and handsome, did it get you wet down there..."

Tian Xinran shook her head pitifully, her voice trembling as if she were about to cry, "Brother, I am... I'm afraid someone will get killed, and then... then we might end up in the big prison."

"If I'm going to the big prison, you damned whore won't fare any better."

After saying that,

Sun Congjun rested the shotgun against the nearby wall.

He unbuckled his belt and pulled out his genitalia, then said to Tian Xinran on the ground, "Come here, and put it in your mouth..."
