16 Louzheng (1/2)

The streets were dim at the time. The old street lights were the only thing lighting up the road. It also made it hard for Wang Ming to see what was happening outside of the car. Wang Ming only heard sounds of arguing at first, so he didn't interfere. In his mind paying them money would be enough. But then he heard screams afraid of it being the cab driver he opened the door to look outside. Shockingly he saw three men groaning while lying on the floor. It didn't seem like they were critically hurt, but enough for them to be bedridden a couple of days.

Then looking at the cab driver, Wang Ming was deeply impressed. His muscles were all pumped, and biceps seemed as big as a man's thigh. You could see all the veins working hard to pump blood through his body. Wang Ming felt puzzled about why a man like him was working as a cab driver. If he joined the underworld, he would soar in ranks, a guard company or the military would be a great choice also. But seeing that the cab driver had finished all of the thugs quickly, he felt happy that he didn't need to make a move since he still felt woozy and tired from working and the wine.

But of course, just as Wang Ming thought that he was lucky, he saw two cars arriving looking into the windows, they looked like thugs and were probably friends of the people trying to scam the cab driver. So Wang Ming decided to get out of the taxi and help him, it wasn't his problem, but they probably wouldn't let Wang Ming go since he also sat in the car, and seeing this situation, it reminded him of when he helped Grandpa Lou.

”Mister Wang, please sit back in the car, I will take care of this. I will protect my customers with my life.” Wang Ming felt touched by the cab driver's words, and he also understood that there was no way for the cab driver to go. Since if he ran away, they could find out who he was by checking the owner of the license plate. ”No problem, I can fight for myself. I don't think they will let me go, so why shouldn't I fight? Oh, What's your name? If we get out of this, you will be my taxi driver for life.”

”Louzheng, only Louzheng, I'm an orphan, so I don't have a last name. I hope you keep your words when we get out of this situation.”

Wang Ming and Louzheng then tensed up both of their muscles, popping with blood veins. Blood pumping in their bodies, filling them with energy, and making their heads more alert. Wang Ming left the wood tube at the market, so he picked up stones from the ground and intended to throw them at the thugs. As a weapon instead.

The cars finally arrived, and ten angry thugs ran out of the vehicles, all holding a metal bat the leading thug held a knife and looked like bloodthirsty. He waved his knife in front of Wang Ming and Louzheng and then barked at them, saying: ”Who are you guys to butt into Wang Gang's matters. If you want to get out of this without being crippled, then hand over 10000 yuan, or else I think you guys will be bedridden for a long time. Just think of it as medical fees.”

When Wang Ming heard his words, he was shocked, and he didn't think that Wang Gang would do things like this. They were a big gang and earned a lot of money through their businesses, but since they were from the Wang Gang, Wang Ming relaxed. He knew that Peng Tong was the little brother of Peng Zhong, which was one of the generals of Wang Gang, so they should be ok if Peng Tong shows his face.

”Are you from Wang Gang? Then you should know about Peng Zhong and his little brother Little Tong? I'm his big brother Wang Ming so give me some face and back off.” Wang Ming thought that this would scare them off, but for some reason, the man in the lead seemed to get angry and ran towards Wang Ming and lunged him with the knife in his hand. ”Who are you to call Peng Tong like that, just look at yourself!”

Wang Ming was scared for two seconds but felt his mind for some reason calm itself down, and instinctively Wang Ming grabbed the hand that was holding the knife and then pulling hard, so the man fell to the ground. Grabbing the knife, Wang Ming proceeded to put it on the man's neck. ”Why do you react like that, Peng Tong is my little brother he's in the taxi so stand there while I get him out.”

The man on the ground was dumbfounded, a second ago he was lunging at the man in the wheelchair. Looking at him, he seemed to be strong, but he was confident since the man was in a wheelchair. But when Wang Ming grabbed him, he felt like a bear caught him and hit by a truck when he hit the ground. He felt his head spin, but after hearing what Wang Ming said, he felt like someone took cold water and splashed it on his face. Standing up, he got his men to be ready if the man in the taxi weren't Peng Tong they would storm them with their metal bats. He was arrogant before and wanted to 1v1, but seeing that he couldn't beat the man in the wheelchair, he would storm them with numbers.
