Chapter 351: Why Use Force?
Wild game?
Li Deyang, half in disbelief, shifted his gaze from the iron box, his brow furrowing again.
Haven’t I warned you not to enter the forest? Are you really not afraid of dying?
Baili Pangpang grinned, “We’ve been in here for so long, and nothing has happened, right? Besides, if we don’t come in, how can we save your daughter?”
Upon hearing the latter part of the sentence, Li Deyang’s prepared reprimand was suddenly stuck in his throat.
You’re fine now because you’re lucky! Li Deyang snorted coldly and spoke firmly, “You need to come back with me right now; you can’t go any deeper!”
Lin Qiye shook his head. “You should take your daughter back first. We won’t return until we complete our filming objectives.”
Li Deyang’s eyes widened as he glared fiercely at Lin Qiye, his voice stern:
“Nonsense! If you go any further, you’ll really be risking your lives! I’ll take you back!”
“No,” Lin Qiye shook his head resolutely.
“Go back!”
“No.”
…
Li Deyang glared at the group, nearly exploding with anger.
You little brats, why won’t you listen to advice? I told you going forward is a dead end, yet you insist on rushing to your doom?
What now?
Should he just take Tingting back? Ignore them completely?
He couldn’t just watch four young people walk to their deaths; besides, if it weren’t for them, Tingting might have already frozen to death in the woods.
Should he knock them out and carry them back?
But with just himself and Chen Han, they couldn’t possibly drag all four of them! It was several hours of walking.
After thinking it over, Li Deyang gritted his teeth, as if he had made a decision, and turned to Chen Han:
“Xiao Chen, you take Tingting back first. I’ll walk a bit further with them and then bring them back.”
Chen Han was taken aback, but what if we run into…
“Don’t worry.” Li Deyang gave Chen Han a look, pointing to the hunting rifle on his back. “You go first; in a few minutes, I’ll make sure these young ones willingly come back.”
Seeing this, Chen Han instantly understood Li Deyang’s intention.
“Okay, we’ll go ahead.” Chen Han nodded.
Li Tingting opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but Li Deyang squatted down and gently patted her head, softly saying, “Tingting, you go back and find Grandpa. Daddy will be back soon.”
After saying that, he seemed to remember something and pulled out a crumpled pack of compressed biscuits from his chest pocket, stuffing it into Li Tingting’s hands.
“If you get hungry on the way, eat some biscuits, okay?”
Li Tingting pushed Li Deyang’s hand back, shaking her head. “Daddy, you keep it for yourself. I’m not hungry; I just had a big slice of pizza.”
Li Deyang was stunned. What did she eat?
“Pizza! I had it from Fat Brother; it was seafood-flavored and so delicious!” Li Tingting patted her belly.
Li Deyang: …
He turned to the four of them, and Baili Pangpang grinned.
Chen Han stepped forward, picked up Li Tingting, and nodded at Li Deyang, signaling him to not worry, then headed back in the direction they came from.
Once the two figures completely disappeared, Li Deyang slowly turned his head to look at Lin Qiye and the others.
“Uncle.” Baili Pangpang shrugged. “Why don’t you just go back too? We really are fine…”
“Less nonsense!”
Li Deyang’s gaze swept over the four, snorting as he pulled out his hunting rifle from behind…
Click—!
The bullet was chambered!
Li Deyang aimed the rifle at the four, wearing a look that said, “Didn’t see this coming, did you?”
He absolutely could not allow Lin Qiye and the others to continue forward, nor would he gamble his life to accompany these four reckless youths. Therefore, he had to use some forceful methods to drive them back!
Although this approach was somewhat unorthodox, Li Deyang couldn’t care less. He hadn’t studied much and couldn’t articulate any grand principles; now, he could only resort to this most crude yet effective method.
Earlier, with Tingting here, he couldn’t draw his gun, as it clearly didn’t look like something a good person would do. Now that the two had left, he could act freely.
You little brats, you won’t listen to reason and insist on forcing me to use violence. Li Deyang’s rough voice echoed through the woods, his tone serious,
“If you don’t want to end up with a few extra holes in you, come back with me right now!”
The air instantly thickened.
Baili Pangpang’s mouth twitched slightly, and the three silently turned to look at Lin Qiye in the middle.
Lin Qiye stared at the dark muzzle of the gun and the resolute Li Deyang, helplessly closing his eyes and letting out a slow sigh…
…
A few birds flew up, startled from the trees.
Ten seconds later.
“You won’t listen to reason and insist on forcing us to use violence.”
Baili Pangpang sat on a nearby rock, fiddling with the hunting rifle in his hands, speaking helplessly.
Beside him, the bruised Li Deyang lay sprawled on the ground, staring blankly at the sky above, as if he had completely stopped thinking.
An Qingyu squatted next to him, seriously disinfecting Li Deyang’s wounds with a piece of alcohol-soaked cloth.
“Uncle Li, we really didn’t mean to hit you so hard.” Lin Qiye sat beside him, explaining seriously, “You see… we had already disarmed you; why did you still rush up to grab it?”
“Fine, you can grab it, but at your age, you should be more careful with your movements… Not only did you fall, but you also twisted your back. Who are you going to complain to about that?”
Li Deyang’s mouth twitched, which pulled at the wound being disinfected, causing his face to contort in pain.
“What on earth are you people?” Li Deyang stared at Lin Qiye, his expression strange. “Though I’m older, I’m not someone a few young punks can subdue. What exactly is your purpose in coming here?”
Lin Qiye blinked. “I told you, we’re filming a documentary.”
“What documentary?”
“Bears in Trouble.”
… Li Deyang was skeptical. If you’re here to film, why haven’t I seen your filming equipment?
Baili Pangpang pondered for a moment, silently pulling out a tripod, two cameras, a reflector, and even pulled out a green vest to put on…
Li Deyang: …
“Impossible.” Li Deyang shook his head firmly. “People filming documentaries can’t have such good skills.”
“Why not?” Lin Qiye raised an eyebrow. “I come from a family of ancient martial arts; close combat has always been my strong suit. At such a close distance, even if you have a gun, you can’t win against me.”
“You’re a descendant of an ancient martial arts family?” Li Deyang frowned, looking at the other three. “What about them?”
Lin Qiye hesitated for a moment, pointing at An Qingyu. “This is the accompanying doctor.”
Then he pointed at Cao Yuan. “Professional photographer.”
Finally, he pointed at Baili Pangpang…
“The foolish son of a landlord.”
