From the time travel, I became extraordinary

Chapter 96: The Fierce Villagers
The front door of Jiang Yao's house is still the old-fashioned wooden door with wooden bolts.

The two dark figures nicknamed Heipi and Mazi tiptoed to the door, took out a dagger and fiddled with the crack in the door a few times.

There was a slight 'creak' sound.

Soon, the bolt was opened, and the two doors were gently pushed open little by little by two people.

This was not the first time that the two had done this kind of thing. They were very familiar with it and very skilled at it.

Apart from a slight noise when they opened the door, the two of them walked through Jiang Yao's house silently without making any sound.

Since they dared to come to Jiang Yao's house in the middle of the night to arrest people, they naturally had a simple understanding of the situation in Jiang Yao's home.

Knowing that Jiang Yao was the only one at home, the two of them quickly appeared in Jiang Yao's room.

They tiptoed to the bed and looked at the quilt that was bulging and obviously showed someone was sleeping inside. The dark-skinned man and the pockmarked man looked at each other and nodded in tacit understanding.

The guy with pockmarks stretched out his two big hands and pressed down the human-shaped object in the quilt.

His companion Heipi took out a handkerchief soaked in ether and, with great force, covered the part of the human-shaped object that seemed to be the head.

It's a pity that he used a little too much force.

Before his hand holding the handkerchief could touch the nostrils of the human-shaped object, the part that looked like the head of the object was pulled off by him.

"Fuck you, there's a straw man stuffed in the bed."

"No, that kid is prepared!"

……

At the first moment, the two of them realized that something was wrong.

Throwing away the straw man's head in his hand, Heipi and Mazi looked at each other and prepared to leave the room first.

But the next moment, an extreme sleepiness surged into their hearts.

Their consciousness quickly went from clear to blurred, and their bodies went limp and they slowly fell to the ground.

"He actually sneaked into my house in the middle of the night. Fortunately, I was prepared!" With a gloomy face, Jiang Yao crawled out from under the bed.

For ordinary people, this period of time is when they feel the most sleepy and sleep the deepest.

When Hei Pi and Ma Zi sneaked into the room, Jiang Yao, who was sleeping soundly, really didn't notice anything.

Just now, when these two guys pounced on the straw man on the bed, the noise was a little louder, which woke Jiang Yao up instantly.

"Just like last time in the alley, kill these two people directly?"

"No, this is my home. If I kill someone here, I will definitely be under suspicion."

"The disaster is still going on. These two people came directly to my house. There must be a mastermind behind them."

"Last time, the death of Ah Han and his group could be considered an accident. If I still kill these two guys, no matter how they die, the mastermind behind it will definitely think of me as the one behind it."

……

Looking at Hei Pi and Ma Zi who were sleeping on the ground, Jiang Yao's mind started to spin rapidly.

Under the current circumstances, it seems that it is not a wise move for him to kill these two guys.

As for arresting the two men and torturing them to extract confessions, Jiang Yao was not a professional, and he was not sure he could get anything out of them without making any noise.

His methods were a little more drastic, and if something unexpected happened and he accidentally killed the two people, he would not be able to completely erase all traces.

If Jiang Yao really did that, the police would come to his door within a few days.

After all, murder is a very serious matter in any era.

Although Jiang Yao is not afraid of causing loss of life, the prerequisite is to keep himself out of it and not implicate himself.

After thinking for a while, Jiang Yao ignored the two guys on the ground. He tiptoed, opened the back door of the house, and went out.

A black car parked on the roadside a few dozen meters away and a dark figure leaning against the front of the car smoking a cigarette caught his eye.

"If they want to kidnap me quietly, they must have a means of transportation."

"Is the guy smoking by the car door an accomplice of the two guys on the ground?"

His eyes flickered. Although Jiang Yao had basically confirmed that this was the fact, he thought about it and decided to only leave a mental imprint on the man and did not pull him into his dream immediately.

After doing all this, Jiang Yao found a shoulder pole from home and held it in his hand. Then, he opened his voice and shouted: "Catch the thief, catch the thief..."

In the silent midnight, his roars were like thunder, spreading in all directions.

Inside the room, Hei Pi and Ma Zi, who were forced into a deep sleep by Jiang Yao, were still sleeping soundly.

On the side of the road not far away, Brother Seven, who was leaning against the car and smoking, was frightened by Jiang Yao's roar. He trembled and lost control of the cigarette in his hand, which fell to the ground.

He spread his feet and prepared to run towards Jiang Yao's house, but as he looked at the lights of the houses nearby starting to light up one after another, he hesitated and felt a little timid.

After all, although rural people these days are a little poor, many of them are very strong.

Although Brother Seven was quite good at fighting, if he was really surrounded by a large group of villagers carrying shoulder poles and hoes, it would have been better for him to just squat on the ground with his head in his hands and admit defeat. If he dared to resist, he would have been beaten to death and there would have been no one to seek justice for him.

Looking at the houses under the cover of night, some villagers were already running out of the houses carrying weapons, and Brother Qi couldn't help but shudder.

"Heipi, Mazi, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that I really can't help you."

"I have already warned you to be more careful. You are so careless and careless. Who can you blame?"

Muttering something in his heart, Brother Seven gritted his teeth, turned around, got into the car, started the car, and disappeared into the night.

This scene naturally fell clearly into Jiang Yao's eyes.

He watched his seventh brother escape without doing anything.

Escape? Where can that person escape to?

He bears my spiritual imprint on him. As long as he is still in the county, I can find him anytime I want.

"Catch the thief, catch the thief..." Jiang Yao watched the man escape quietly and did not forget to shout a few times at the top of his voice.

"Xiaoyao, where is the thief?"

"I was sleeping soundly at home when I suddenly saw two dark figures sneaking into my room. They were carrying weapons with them. Fortunately, I was smart and escaped from the house immediately!"

"Where did this thief come from? How dare he come to steal our things!"

……

In just a short while, six or seven men carrying weapons appeared near Jiang Yao's house.

Not only that, there were shadows of people moving in the night, and more people were still on the way, gathering here quickly.

Almost at the same time, the two men, the black-skinned pockmarked man who had fallen asleep in the room, slowly opened their eyes with a confused look on their faces. They had just woken up a little, but the roars of "Catch the thief" outside had completely confused the two men.

At the gate, the black-skinned man and the pockmarked man didn't dare to go in at all.

Fortunately, Jiang Yao's old wooden house has several doors leading to the outside, including the two doors at the front door.

Judging from the sounds coming from outside the house, there were obviously more and more people gathering outside, and Heipi and the other man didn't dare to stay in the house any longer.

With extremely grim looks on their faces, they opened a wooden door on the side of the house and rushed out immediately.

This door does lead to the outside, but outside there is a fence made of a row of evergreens mixed with some bamboo and wooden sticks.

"Here, the thief is here..." While the two were still in a daze, a shout was heard not far away.

"Run, run quickly!" Heipi only had time to yell before a carrying pole that came from nowhere hit his back.

Ma Zi on the other side was not much better than him. He only had time to run a few steps before he was caught up by several men.

The men, who had already learned from Jiang Yao that the two guys were armed, didn't hesitate at all and hit Ma Zi with their carrying poles and sticks. In just a few hits, they had knocked him to the ground.

Originally, no matter whether they were dark-skinned or pockmarked, they all had some martial arts skills.

Under normal circumstances, the two of them who were only trying to escape would not behave so badly when facing these villagers.

At the beginning, when Jiang Yaobingzai and others were entangled by Huang Cuicui, they were only allowed to enter her dream once, and when they woke up in the morning, they didn't even have the strength to walk.

Compared with Huang Cuicui's dream-entering technique, Jiang Yao's trickery of entering dreams is much more powerful.

Some time ago, Jiang Yao had been pondering over the two secret techniques of possession and dream entry. When he forced the other party into a dream and absorbed the target's spirit, he was already able to control it to a certain extent.

Jiang Yao would naturally not be polite to Heipi and Mazi. He absorbed their energy and spirit, all to the point of death.

It was only a short while from the time the two were forced into a dream until they woke up, but it still made them feel weak in their hands and feet and unable to exert much strength.

Falling to the ground, the two were beaten and screamed by a group of villagers.

"How dare you come here and steal our things!"

"Don't waste your time talking to them. Find some ropes and hang them up first."

"I have a rope at home, I'll get it now!"

……

Like dragging a dead dog, the black-skinned man and the pockmarked man were dragged to a willow tree not far from Jiang Yao's door.

During the dragging process, there were always six or seven people holding weapons watching nearby. If they did anything unusual, they would be beaten with sticks on the head.

Rural people of this age are in their prime and are basically full of strength.

After knocking down the two dark-skinned and pockmarked men, many of the older and more stable men stopped and did not continue.

On the contrary, the young men in their teens and twenties like Bingzai and Ermao were shouting loudly and screaming with excitement.

The soldier is a seasoned man who has experienced a lot of fights, so it is very normal for him to behave like this.

Ermao and his friends are all serious people who rarely hang out on the streets on weekdays. But during this kind of group event, they are full of energy and seem to have enough strength.

After Heipi Mazi and the other man were hung on the tree, Ermao took the lead in stripping off their clothes, leaving only a pair of underwear for the two men.

Afterwards, this guy brought a bucket of cold water from home and poured it on the two of them, one scoop after another.

The weather in the first month of the lunar year, or the feeling of being stripped naked and having cold water poured over your head in the middle of the night, is hard to describe in detail for those who have not experienced it.

Under the light of the flashlight, the dark-skinned man with pockmarks had black and blue lips, and his body was shaking constantly.

"Tell me, where are you from and what's your name?"

"Besides you two, are there any other accomplices?"

"Why do you choose to be a thief when you can do anything else? You've been caught, and you're still trying to be tough with us?"

……

The soldier held a few thin bamboo sticks pulled out from a bamboo broom in his hand. He waved his arms from time to time and hit the black-skinned and pockmarked men hard.

Without any clothes to cover it, this bamboo stick would leave streaks of blood when pulled out, causing such heart-wrenching pain that one would want to scream.

The other spirited young men followed suit, either pouring cold water on Heipi and the other, or beating them with all kinds of objects.

Looking at their excited expressions, it seemed as if the more they tortured the black-skinned and pockmarked men, the more pleasure they would get.

With their teeth clenched, the black-skinned and pockmarked man remained silent from beginning to end, only glancing at Jiang Yaobing and the others with resentful eyes from time to time.

Jiang Yao rummaged through the clothes that had been stripped off of them.

Apart from finding a few dozen dollars, there was nothing inside that could prove their identity.

In Jiang Yao's memory, if a thief was caught stealing and injured while escaping, he could still turn around and sue the owner, making the owner pay a huge amount of compensation.

What’s even more terrifying is that in this kind of lawsuit, the thief can be the winner in the end.

In today's barbaric era, such a thing would naturally not happen.

When thieves were caught in the villages within a dozen miles of the county town, they were basically beaten to death. As long as no one was killed, it was not a big deal.

Although the black-skinned and pockmarked man were not the real thieves, this foul matter was pinned on them, and no matter how hard they tried to explain, it was impossible for them to do so.

After all, their real purpose of breaking into Jiang Yao's house was much worse than stealing.

What else can they explain in this situation? They would rather be treated as thieves.

"Uncle Yao, it's getting late, I have to go to work!"

He slept until about three o'clock and then got up, and then stayed here all the time. Not only did the soldier not feel tired, but he also felt refreshed.

After saying hello to Jiang Yao, he dropped the bamboo sticks in his hand and strode towards his home without caring about his relatives.

Ermao Yongge and his friends also had important things to do, and seeing that it was getting late, they all looked very excited and started to disperse one by one.

Although many people dispersed, the number of people gathered in this area not only did not decrease, but showed an increasing trend.

After all, the news that they had caught a thief had already spread. Not only from their Chengbei Village, but also from several neighboring villages, people came here to watch the fun.

Some people were pointing and talking, while others, fearing chaos in the world, picked up bamboo sticks from the ground and beat the two men with pockmarks viciously.

It was not until nearly nine o'clock that a police car drove up and several police officers came out. They lowered the two men, Black-skinned and Pockmarked, down from the tree and pulled them into the car.

After questioning Jiang Yao and others who were present, the police car drove away.
