152: Chapter 152 The Jiang Family's Daughter Marries Off, Lin Yuan Brings a Horde of Corpses to Welcome the Bride
Dawn had just broken.
The sound of gongs and drums rang out outside the Jiang Family villa.
It wasn't festive.
It was noisy.
Three modified armored vehicles rumbled over the street.
Red cloth hung from the front of the vehicles.
Steel plates were welded onto the bodies.
Machine guns were mounted on the roofs.
Dozens of armed men herded refugees to clear the path; if anyone was a step too slow, a rifle butt would smash into their back.
The refugees' arms were all slashed open, dripping with fresh blood; if any zombies lurking in the shadows jumped out, their primary target would be these opened cans.
An old man fell and blocked the lead vehicle.
The car door opened.
Pang Heihu stepped out.
He was stout, with a thick gold chain hanging around his neck and a burn scar covering half his face.
His skin was bulging, and his shoulders were a size wider than an ordinary person's.
He kicked the old man in the chest.
The old man rolled several meters away and stopped moving.
A woman nearby screamed.
Bang.
A gunshot rang out.
The woman collapsed by the side of the road.
Pang Heihu grinned.
"Today, I'm getting married; consider this an extra meal for the wild dogs on the roadside."
His subordinates chuckled along.
Pang Heihu raised a hand and patted his own stomach.
That stomach wasn't just fat.
There were hard lumps undulating beneath the skin, like layers of armor plates moving.
B-rank [Steel Will].
It was the same Superpower as Tank.
Relying on this body.
He had survived rifle barrages.
He had endured zombie bites.
In the settlement of 100,000 people in Zhe City, he was considered someone with clout.
The gates of the Jiang Family opened.
Jiang Chengye brought the Jiang Family members to the entrance, rubbing his hands together.
In the past, when he held the dispatch authority for the Zhe City Joint Forces, if Pang Heihu came to ask for a favor, he wouldn't even look at him, finding him dirty.
Now, he knelt faster than anyone else.
"Tiger Lord."
Jiang Chengye lowered his head.
"The Jiang Family respectfully welcomes Tiger Lord."
Jiang Hao also put on a smiling face and leaned in.
"Tiger Lord, the person has already been cleaned up."
"She's tied up."
"We're just waiting for you to inspect the goods."
Pang Heihu glanced at him.
"You're quite sensible."
Jiang Hao immediately lowered his head further.
"Being able to serve Tiger Lord is the Jiang Family's blessing."
In the inner living room.
Jiang Xiaowan was being held by two women.
Her hands were tied in front of her.
There was blood at the corner of her mouth.
Her complexion was very pale, but she kept shielding her lower abdomen with her arms.
She saw Jiang Chengye fawning at the door.
She saw Jiang Hao's ingratiating face.
She also saw those Jiang Family relatives who used to surround her calling her "Big Miss," all with their heads bowed, none daring to look up.
Jiang Xiaowan suddenly laughed.
So the threshold of the Jiang Family could be this low.
Low enough to let a dog crawl in.
Pang Heihu stepped onto the stairs.
Jiang Chengye was about to follow.
Pang Heihu suddenly stopped.
"Jiang Chengye."
Jiang Chengye looked up.
"Tiger Lord?"
Pang Heihu pointed beneath his feet.
"The steps are dirty."
Jiang Chengye's expression changed.
Pang Heihu laughed: "In the past, didn't you look down on me quite a bit?"
"Saying I was rotten meat on the street."
"Saying that even if the Jiang Family's threshold was trampled, it wouldn't be my turn to step on it."
"Now this piece of rotten meat has come to marry the phoenix of your Jiang Family."
"Doesn't this trampled threshold still lack something to step on?"
The courtyard went quiet.
The corner of Jiang Hao's mouth twitched.
The Jiang Family members all lowered their heads.
Jiang Chengye's back stiffened.
Looking at Pang Heihu's armed men, and thinking about the quota for the inner ring of Zhe City he would get after marrying off Jiang Xiaowan.
Jiang Chengye slowly got down.
He pressed his face against the floor tiles.
"Tiger Lord, please."
Pang Heihu stepped onto his back.
He ground his sole into him.
"Now that's more like it."
In the second-floor room.
General Manager Jiang Xiong heard the gongs and drums, heard the laughter.
He braced himself against the edge of the bed, trying to stand up.
Blood seeped through the bandages on his chest.
He fell to the floor.
Then he climbed up again.
The guards at the door had all gone down to welcome the "Jiang Family son-in-law."
There was an old gun in a hidden compartment under the bed.
It was something he had hidden when he was young, fearing enemies would come knocking.
He hadn't expected to use it now.
General Manager Jiang Xiong's hands shook as he pulled it out, and he gritted his teeth as he crawled toward the door.
"Xiaowan..."
The door was pushed open.
General Manager Jiang Xiong raised the gun.
Bang!
The bullet flew out from the second-floor railing.
It didn't hit Pang Heihu.
It only shattered the headlight of the lead vehicle.
The glass exploded.
Every muzzle in the courtyard was raised simultaneously.
The smile on Pang Heihu's face vanished.
He looked up and saw General Manager Jiang Xiong slumped by the second-floor railing, still gripping the gun.
Half of General Manager Jiang Xiong's body was covered in blood.
But he was still raising the gun.
The second shot didn't ring out.
The gun had jammed.
The flesh on Pang Heihu's face twitched.
"Old thing."
"Drag him down."
Several subordinates rushed upstairs.
Soon, General Manager Jiang Xiong was dragged into the courtyard.
Blood was dragged along the ground the entire way.
Jiang Xiaowan tried to rush over, but was grabbed tightly by Jiang Hao.
"Don't cause trouble!"
Jiang Xiaowan turned to look at him.
"Let go."
Jiang Hao lowered his voice.
"Do you want to get us all killed?"
Jiang Xiaowan looked at him.
"You are already dead."
Jiang Hao's expression changed, and he raised his hand to strike.
But Pang Heihu laughed.
"Don't hit the face."
"I still want to see the bride's face when I'm in the bridal chamber today."
Jiang Hao immediately withdrew his hand.
General Manager Jiang Xiong was pressed to the ground.
Pang Heihu walked over and squatted down.
"General Manager Jiang Xiong, right?"
"I heard you used to be called the Lion."
He patted General Manager Jiang Xiong's face.
"Why are you like a sick cat now?"
General Manager Jiang Xiong spat out a mouthful of blood.
The blood sprayed onto Pang Heihu's shoes.
Pang Heihu looked down at it.
Then he stepped on the back of General Manager Jiang Xiong's hand.
General Manager Jiang Xiong groaned, but didn't scream.
Jiang Xiaowan finally couldn't hold it in.
She broke free from the two people behind her and stood in front of General Manager Jiang Xiong.
"Don't touch him!"
General Manager Jiang Xiong gasped for air.
"Xiaowan... don't..."
Jiang Hao rushed up and grabbed Jiang Xiaowan's arm.
"Get in the car, now!"
"It's your good fortune that Tiger Lord has his eye on you."
Jiang Xiaowan suddenly stopped.
She looked at Pang Heihu.
"I'm pregnant."
Every sound in the courtyard stopped.
Jiang Chengye looked up abruptly.
Jiang Hao's hand froze.
The faces of the Jiang Family women turned pale.
Pang Heihu narrowed his eyes.
Jiang Hao's face turned green.
"Are you crazy?"
Jiang Chengye immediately spoke up.
"Tiger Lord, she's lying! She must be lying!"
"She's just trying to stall for time!"
"She's still a virgin, she hasn't been touched by anyone."
Pang Heihu, however, wasn't angry.
Instead, he laughed.
He laughed even louder.
"Interesting."
He walked up to Jiang Xiaowan.
"Someone else's woman, someone else's seed."
"I'll go in and take a look for him."
Jiang Xiaowan's stomach churned.
She stepped back half a step.
Pang Heihu reached out to touch her face.
Jiang Xiaowan turned her head to dodge.
Slap.
Pang Heihu backhanded her across the face.
Jiang Xiaowan fell to the ground.
Pang Heihu cursed: "Dodging?"
Jiang Hao immediately stepped forward.
"Be obedient, and you'll suffer less physical pain!"
He grabbed Jiang Xiaowan.
"Get in the car!"
Jiang Xiaowan protected her lower abdomen.
She looked at General Manager Jiang Xiong.
General Manager Jiang Xiong was sprawled in the blood, his eyes fixed on her.
His lips moved.
There was no sound.
But Jiang Xiaowan understood.
Survive.
She bit her lip.
Blood seeped from the corner of her mouth.
Just as Jiang Hao was about to push her onto the armored vehicle, roars came from the streets outside the villa.
Not just one or two sounds.
It was a chorus.
Pang Heihu turned his head abruptly.
His subordinates immediately scrambled onto the vehicle roofs.
"Tiger Lord! Zombie Horde!"
"There are some on East Street!"
"West Street has them too!"
"The south side is blocked!"
"The north side as well!"
Pang Heihu cursed.
"Damn it, didn't we report to the settlement before we came out!"
"Set up the defense immediately!"
"Contact the home base and have them ask what the hell is going on!"
The machine guns turned.
The subordinates rushed to the back of the vehicles.
The refugees were pushed to the very front to serve as a human wall.
Jiang Chengye's face turned pale.
"How can there be so many?"
Zhe City was a city with a population of millions, so there were naturally more zombies than in Jiang City.
But these in front of them weren't right.
Ordinary zombies packed the street entrance.
D-rank Elite Zombies were mixed among them.
They didn't charge.
They all stopped at the street entrance.
Four streets.
All completely sealed off.
Pang Heihu's subordinates started to tremble.
"Tiger Lord, they..."
Pang Heihu grabbed the binoculars.
"Less damn chatter."
He looked toward the end of the Zombie Horde.
The dense mass of zombies suddenly retreated to the sides.
Just as Moses parted the sea.
Giving way to a path.
Lin Yuan stood at the very front.
His trench coat was still stained with black blood.
Wang Ya stood by his side, water flowing and swirling around her feet.
Lin Motong held the violent bear, quietly watching the Jiang Family villa.
Behind her.
Seven Zombie Girls in protective suits followed.
Like seven locked blades.
Jiang Xiaowan saw Lin Yuan.
Tears fell instantly.
She opened her mouth.
She didn't call out.
Lin Yuan raised his eyes and looked into the courtyard.
Looked at General Manager Jiang Xiong, who was being dragged on the ground.
Looked at Jiang Xiaowan, whose hands were tied.
Finally, he looked at Pang Heihu.
Lin Motong hugged the violent bear tighter, her voice very soft.
"Uncle Lin."
"Can we eat them all?"
