Chapter 1218: Heading to the Land of Inheritance (3)
"What... what is going on here? How can such a young child be married?"
Ah Mi muttered to herself. She hadn’t forgotten the tirade from the middle-aged woman earlier. Her words had clearly stated that this little girl had been married off to her son!
Looking around the courtyard, there was a man, roughly in his thirties, sitting blankly on a stone stool. He was somewhat overweight, probably around 180 or 190 pounds. His skin was dark, and drool kept dripping from the corner of his mouth. His vacant eyes stared in the direction of the middle-aged couple and the little girl, grinning foolishly.
This man was a fool!
Utterly absurd!
Before An Yiqing and the others could react, the middle-aged man and woman had already grabbed a cane and a pickaxe and were chasing after the little girl. They cursed loudly as they ruthlessly swung their tools at her, showing no mercy!
The little girl initially ran for her life, trying to dodge the blows from the two adults. But then the middle-aged man’s pickaxe struck her square on the back, causing her to stumble and fall hard to the ground. What followed was a barrage of merciless blows raining down on her, leaving her unable to get back up.
An Yiqing and her group, despite being no strangers to life-and-death situations, could hardly bear to watch such brutal cruelty inflicted on a child.
"Hey! That’s enough! What kind of cowardice is it for two adults to bully a little girl? Do you want me to call the police and have you both arrested?!"
The outspoken Ah Mi darted out from behind Cao Xiaosha and snatched the tools away from the middle-aged couple.
The two were startled by Ah Mi’s sudden appearance and froze for a moment.
"Who are you? What do you think you’re doing? Get lost!" The middle-aged woman came to her senses and shoved Ah Mi forcefully.
Ah Mi, caught off guard, stumbled backward several steps before regaining her balance.
