Chapter 6: Human Life is Cheap

The Chen family killed someone?!
Upon hearing the news, Shen Qing was shocked. He quickly stopped what he was doing and ran out of the bamboo forest.

He caught Chen Dahe who had just come out of the house and asked, "What's going on outside?"

Chen Dahe was at home and had just heard the news. He was as confused as Shen Qing.

After a while, Shen Qing saw his cousins ​​Shen Xiaohu and Shen Xiaoshan, and hurried over.

"Xiaohu, Shanwa, what's going on?"

Seeing that it was Shen Qing who was shouting, Shen Xiaoshan and Shen Xiaohu did not hide it.

Xiao Hu panted and said, "Tian Chuan was beaten to death by the second and third sons of the Chen family."

"I heard that Tian Chuan was found climbing the wall by the second and third sons of the Chen family, and they killed him. Now he is lying in the snow, and the blood has dyed a large area red."

"Everyone from the Tian family has gone there to seek an explanation."

"Brother Qingzi, do you want to come with us?"

Shen Xiaoshan and Shen Xiaohu talked to each other and finally gave a general idea of ​​what happened, so that Shen Qing roughly knew what was going on.

The Tian family are outsiders and their status in Hongshan Village is not high, so they live a rather twisted life.

This is especially true for the Tagawa family.

He is the only male in their family, and his parents are old and weak.

It is extremely difficult for the family to have food, clothing and other daily necessities.

Unexpectedly, he was beaten to death by the Chen family.

"Wait for me." Shen Qing returned to the room and told Shen Fang a few words, then closed the door and said, "Let's go!"

By the time Shen Qing and his companions arrived, many villagers from Hongshan Village had already rushed over from all directions, surrounded the scene, and whispered.

Tianchuan's body lay there stiffly, and the surrounding snow was dyed scarlet by his blood, which was shocking to see.

The villagers' faces were filled with shock and regret.

Next to Tianchuan's body, the second son of the Chen family, Chen Tai, and the third son, Chen An, both had grim expressions on their faces, each holding a stick in their hands that was stained with bright red blood and was still dripping with blood.

Chen An's face was filled with murderous intent, as if he was afraid that others would not know that it was he who did it.

At this moment, Tianchuan's parents, who had rushed over after hearing the news, stumbled into the crowd.

Upon seeing her son's body, Tian's mother collapsed to the ground, while Tian's father's eyes were blank and tears were streaming down his face.

Mother Tian wailed, "My son, why did you leave like this?"

Father Tian pointed at the Chen brothers with shaking hands and roared: "You are killing people!"

The voice was shrill and desperate.

For a while, sighs could be heard from the villagers of Hongshan Village.

"Alas, Tianchuan has no other choice. The mountain is blocked by heavy snow, and I'm afraid there is no surplus food at home."

"But it's wrong to find out that the Chen family is stealing things."

"But no matter how wrong it is, it shouldn't be necessary to beat someone to death, right?" someone said indignantly.

After a while, the whole story gradually became clear from the villagers' discussions.

Tianchuan was starving because his family had run out of food, so he had no choice but to steal the bacon from Chen's family.

Unfortunately, he was discovered by the second and third sons of the Chen family, who had an argument and dispute with him. In the end, Chen An beat him to death in the snow in a rage.

At this time, the Tian family members in Hongshan Village had heard the news and rushed over early. They confronted the Chen brothers and accused the Chen family of being vicious and cruel.

We all make a living in the mountains, and we all have a bit of hostility.

If no one stopped them, the Tian family members would have raised their hunting knives and seemed to be ready to chop the Chen brothers to pieces alive.

The second and third sons of the Chen family stood aside with expressionless faces, appearing arrogant and disdainful.

"Just beat him to death, he's just a thief." Chen San snorted coldly: "I didn't know he was so weak." The villagers looked at Tianchuan's body and then at the attitude of the Chen brothers, and a chill rose in their hearts.

"Give me back my son, give me back my son!!"

Tian's mother suddenly became furious and rushed towards Chen An, but Chen Tai was quick-witted and kicked her over.

The scene suddenly became chaotic.

Chen Yuan, the eldest son of the Chen family, squeezed through the crowd.

He was tall and strong, with a fierce look on his face. Even the old hunter in the village could not match him and was easily defeated by him.

Chen Yuan looked around and shouted in a deep voice: "Everyone listen!"

"Tan Chuan climbed over the wall to steal my meat. Although I have some treasures at home, not just anyone can take them. What's more, this fellow Tan Chuan was holding a dagger and wanted to attack my two brothers."

Chen An took the stick and poked Tianchuan's arm, and indeed found a dagger.

Seeing this scene, the villagers were shocked.

Shen Qing, who was in the crowd, frowned when he heard Chen Yuan's words.

He also had some impression of Tianchuan.

He believed that Tianchuan stole meat because he was extremely hungry, but he didn't believe that he attacked the two Chen brothers with a dagger.

It is very likely that Tianchuan was forced into a corner and chose to take action.

But it's useless to say anything now.

Tagawa is dead.

Chen Yuan brought this point up now, obviously wanting to use Tianchuan's death to build momentum, and there was also an intention to establish his authority.

Chen Yuan looked around at everyone, took a step forward and continued in a loud voice: "I have a problem - I protect my brothers. If anyone touches my two brothers, let alone a beating, or even killing them on the spot, it's their own fault. Don't blame me for not making it clear in advance."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yuan's aura suddenly changed.

A powerful aura spread out, like a ferocious god.

Such a scene, coupled with Tianchuan's body on the ground, made all the villagers in Hongshan Village feel sad, and each of them was like a quail.

No one dared to speak for Tianchuan anymore and could only sympathize silently in their hearts.

In the crowd, Shen Qing looked at Chen Yuan and thought: "Chen Yuan has mastered martial arts and can fight three people at once. There are hundreds of people in the village. If everyone attacks together, they might be able to beat him to death."

"It's just a pity that no one wants to stand out and become the three people in the "one against three" battle."

As if he had seen through Shen Qing's thoughts, Chen Yuan subconsciously glanced at Shen Qing again.

Shen Qing lowered his head quickly.

Faced with the Chen family's strength, the Tian family, who were indignant at first, no longer had the momentum they had when they first came.

Chen An yelled, "It's snowing heavily, why are you all gathered in my house? Get out of here!"

At his shout, the many villagers gathered here dispersed.

Tianchuan's parents were white-haired and had red eyes as they dragged Tianchuan's body towards home in the heavy snow, leaving a long trail of blood.

Soon, the bloodstain was covered by heavy snow and turned into a vast expanse of white, as if nothing had happened.

When they returned home, both Shen Xiaohu and Shen Xiaoshan were filled with indignation.

"The Chen brothers are so overbearing. The Tian family is too cowardly. If the Chen family hadn't joined forces with the city's boss to lower the price of the game, Tian Chuan wouldn't have been left without a meal."

"What if I'm not a coward? Tianchuan has no brothers or sisters, and his parents are old. Who would risk standing up for them? Even if they go to the government, they need someone above them."

"To die is to die."

"The least valuable thing in this world is the lives of people like us."

Shen Qing remained silent, just listened quietly and said nothing more.
