    Chapter 151: Fight Fire with Fire - Human Trafficking Village (2)

    One-on-three, it's all about skill and positioning.

    One-on-thirty relies purely on equipment.

    The greater the deterrent effect of the equipment, the less likely the enemies are to engage in close combat.

    At first, Huang Yuxin relied on his extremely strong evasion skills to dodge the Weijia brothers' random attacks. He even anticipated the old lady’s surprise attack with a bucket of slop, drenching the brothers in the freezing cold, leaving them shivering and sneezing.

    Next to the pig pen, without a second thought, he grabbed a pitchfork and attached it to a metal pole, turning it into a makeshift spear, which he hurled like a projectile towards them.

    While shouting taunts like, "Come at me!!!" and "If you’ve got the guts, come over!!!"

    Keding: "At first, I was a little worried this guy might lose control."

    Keding: "I didn’t expect him not only to beat them up but also to taunt them."

    System: "The stubborn old man of the Weijia family had a stroke two years ago and is now paralyzed. Without a doubt, the old lady would scream for help."

    Most of the villagers in Weijia are related by blood and have a high degree of interest entanglement in human trafficking. They’ll all get involved.

    If any wife cries and threatens to kill herself, or if any child who was trafficked begs every night to go back to their parents, they will most likely be severely punished.

    Men like Huang Yuxin, who were trafficked into the village, are rare, but they are still an asset in the interest chain that is absolutely not allowed to escape.

    He’s not seen as a person but as an asset of the Weijia family.

    Sure enough, as soon as the Weijia old lady rushed out crying and shouting, the previously quiet night was lit up by lights and torches, and people gathered while discussing.

    "The man from the Weijia family is rebelling?"

    "He dares to kick up a fuss? He’s asking for a beating! Give him something tough!"

    "Wait, your two sons can’t even handle one man?"

    The old lady, acting as if her ancestral grave had been dug up, wiped her tears with endless grievances, quickly igniting the villagers' anger.

    Five or six burly men stormed into the courtyard, but before they could see clearly, they were suddenly hit with a barrage of something.

    "Ptooey, ptooey, what the hell is this?!"

    "Damn it! It’s pig manure! Pig manure!!"

    Some frantically wiped their faces, while others cursed loudly, but Huang Yuxin, at the center of the storm, was completely unfazed.

    He could throw objects with the accuracy and force of a corn cob launcher.

    At this moment, even if someone could endure the mental damage of pig manure and bravely advance through the hail of gunfire towards him, Huang Yuxin still had a long fork to accurately and ruthlessly stab at weak points.

    He could attack or defend perfectly.

    "I was originally very worried about Huang Yuxin’s personal safety," the system said. "After all, fighting alone against hundreds requires full military preparation. But now, looking at this world champion player, he’s very good at utilizing terrain kills and dealing true damage."

    "What’s his name?"

    "Sigh."

    Keding stroked his chin and analyzed the situation: "This yard can fit at most ten people, including these two brothers and the old lady."

    "If this drags on, what if they start using those animal tranquilizers?"

    The system said, "Other than that, aren't you worried about your breaking point?"

    "If you're just taking hits, their anger and aggression are through the roof; the breaking point isn't too bad."

    "Here's the situation," Keding said, "If I can't take these bastards down for good, I'm gonna lose it."

    "That's important."

    System: "……Makes sense."

    The fight was getting intense. The two brothers were beat up pretty bad, one of them with a dislocated shoulder.

    Meanwhile, the others were getting precisely stabbed by the pitchfork, their cotton clothes full of holes, and everyone was howling.

    "My leg! My thigh is bleeding!! This is bad, I'm done for!!"

    "Wei Haoyu, are you even capable?! Are you really a man? You can't even take down a bookworm?!"

    "Damn it! Your family's got enough pig shit to last a lifetime! What's taking him so long?!"

    The old lady was losing her mind, never expecting that so many grown men couldn't handle one kid. She shrieked, "Call the cops! Call the cops and arrest him!!"

    "Find the village head! Find Old Master Wei!"

    "I'll call the cops. The police have guns; someone causing a scene like this won't get away with it!"

    The two commentators outside were taken aback.

    System: "Did I hear that wrong?"

    Keding: "Did I actually use my ears?"

    Who would've thought someone who was kidnapped and forced to work would end up getting reported to the cops?

    The local police station actually sent someone up.

    Someone used the home phone to call the police, and the cops rode motorcycles up the mountain overnight.

    The system checked the records and sighed.

    "Out of the dozens of people at the station, seventy percent are also named Wei. Figures."

    When the cops arrived, they spoke the local dialect just like everyone else.

    Wei Jiehua even handed the officer a cigarette.

    "Bro!"

    "What's with all the shit on you?" The cop pulled out a baton and shone a flashlight on everyone, shouting, "Stop causing trouble! You hear me?"

    Everyone backed off, waiting for the cop to handle the crazy guy who was throwing shit all over the place.

    "You!" The cop pointed the baton at Huang Yuxin. "What's your problem?"

    "I was kidnapped and sold here," Huang Yuxin said. "I want to report it; they've been illegally detaining and abusing me, and forcing me into labor."

    The crowd erupted in laughter, as if they had seen such scenes many times before.

    The cop sternly said, "Wei Jiehua! What's going on with your family?!"

    "Yeah, why wouldn't he be," Wei Haoyu replied, pulling out a stack of bills. "His sister drank pesticide and died at our place. We lost everything trying to save her, but we couldn't. The debt falls on him!"

    "My sister was working in the South, how did she end up here?!" Huang Yuxin angrily said. "Is human trafficking even legal?! Don't you know you're all breaking the law?!"

    "Your sister and I were in love, sure," Wei Haoyu said with a smirk. "She still owes me 50,000 in bride price. When are you going to pay it back?"

    "Medical expenses are 500,000, and the bride price is 50,000. You've already paid around 70-80,000 before, and I have all the records here."

    "Officer, debts must be repaid; it's only fair, right? We can't be unreasonable, can we?"

    Before anyone else could chime in, the younger brother Wei Jiehua loudly said, "He can't pay his debts and is trying to default! That's why we're making him work off the debt through labor!"

    "If you can pay up right now! Otherwise, this is a family matter! My brother and my brother-in-law have some disputes; outsiders shouldn't interfere!"

    The crowd chimed in, "Yeah, don't interfere!"

    Man shrugged. "You heard him."

    "You got the money?"

    Huang Yuxin said, "No."

    Man took a closer look at the long fork in his hand and glanced at the disheveled look of the older men, realizing this kid was tough.

    "Alright, I'll talk to you privately," Man said. "Put down the weapon. Let's talk in the shed. Everyone else, disperse. No need to watch."

    The system: "This is definitely fishy."

    Keding: "I'm definitely going in. I really want to use those magic chopsticks."

    "Let's not call them magic chopsticks anymore," the system said. "Maybe we should call them a magic forklift or excavator."

    Huang Yuxin followed Man into the cluttered storage room, looking exhausted.

    "Can you help me contact my family? I don't belong here."

    "Of course," Man said. "What about your debt?"

    "They're lying," Huang Yuxin said. "My sister was sold here, and I was kidnapped. I don't owe them anything."

    "It seems there's been some misunderstanding between you," Man said, stepping back to the door. "Wei Haoyu, come here and talk it out with him properly."

    "Talk? Pfft, it's just a family dispute. A simple apology will calm things down."

    "In the future, try not to argue so much. It disturbs everyone's rest."

    "Yes, yes, we didn't handle this well this time."

    The sound of bolting and locking the door came from outside.

    "Thank you for your help. It's cold out, so head back inside."

    "Alright, call me if you need anything."

    Before Bro had even walked far, Wei Haoyu spat over the wall.

    "I never should've given you water or food!"

    "I treated you like a person, and now you're strong enough to fight back!"

    "I'll starve you for five days and five nights, then we'll see how you flip out!"

    Keding ignored the brothers' taunts outside and asked, "Is the stomach medicine ready?"

    "Of course, you're always asking for this stuff."

    He took out the seemingly ordinary chopsticks, breathed in gently, and crouched down.

    The chopsticks grabbed a brick from the wall, and with a twist, the brick morphed into a fluffy strawberry soufflé.

    A square gap appeared in the wall, and the youth devoured it.

    "At a buffet, you always start with the good stuff!" the system couldn't stand it anymore.

    "You're right, I want to eat M8 Wagyu," Keding said.

    The chopsticks twisted a brick, and a large piece of sizzling hot roast beef with mushroom sauce was held to his mouth.

    "Ahh—"

    Delicious!

    After all that fighting, it's only fair to eat more!

    Keding feasted in the corner, and the system felt something was off.

    "Why are you starting from the corner?"

    "I'm gonna munch a little hole and slip out like a dog."

    "Ah?"

    "Then I'll eat through other people's houses."

    "Ah?"

    "Help me check how many households are nearby."

    "There are more than twenty households," the system hesitated, "Do you need an invisibility cloak?"

    "No need," Keding said with a smile, "With you monitoring in full view, I'll eat and run, leaving a huge gap in every house. It's very reasonable, right?"

    In about ten days, the entire village would be eaten through, leaving holes in every wall.

    By then, if only this family's house remained intact, it would be hard not to attract criticism.

    Turning a deep bond into the sharpest malice only required a little internal conflict.

    With a twist of the chopsticks, a dozen or so adobe bricks had turned into char siu and lamb chops, all eaten up.

    Keding took another bite with the chopsticks, still wanting more.

    "Maybe I'll just keep eating until there's nothing left but the ceiling when they wake up."

    System: "I believe you can actually do it."
