The little sister is a troublemaker

Chapter 28 Li Xi was beaten

"Snap!" Another whip came, but this time it didn't hit the old man, but was blocked by the thin Li Xi.

Li Xi's face turned pale with pain, but he still gritted his teeth and climbed up. He clenched his fists, and veins popped out on his forehead, but he still held back and lowered his head slightly, "Sir, he has fainted. Let me feed him some water."

The bailiff was Brother Hu's subordinate. The Li family had offended Brother Hu before, so he naturally would not let go of this opportunity.

"Stop meddling in other people's business, you little brat. Don't forget who you are. You're just an exiled prisoner. How dare you act like a boss here?" Then he whipped her, "Get out of here."

Li Xi dodged when the whip came at him, but the whip missed him, and the other party became even more angry. "You dare to dodge, little bastard? Today I will let you know how powerful I am."

The yamen runner winked at his companions who were watching the show nearby, and four or five yamen runners came over together. Li Xi was panicked when he saw this, and it seemed that he would be beaten today.

On the other side of the mine, a short man ran quickly to a mine cave, "Hey, Li Da and Li Er, go check on your kid quickly, if you go too late he might be dead."

Upon hearing this, Li Yi quickly put down the pole in his hand and ran out in a hurry. Li Xun and Li Yun followed closely behind him. As soon as he ran to the entrance of the mine, he saw a young yamen runner trotting over. It was Xiao Song who had spoken for the Li family before. "Uncle Li, Li Xi is almost beaten to death. You should go and have a look."

Li Yi's hands were shaking, his lips were quivering, and he walked forward quickly.

Li Xun winked at Li Yun, who immediately followed his elder brother's steps. Li Xun grabbed Xiao Song's arm and said, "Xiao Song, thank you for coming here to report the news."

Xiao Song felt a little ashamed. He couldn't really help. He wanted to go up and persuade them just now, but was scared away by those old foxes. "I... I didn't help much."

"Xiao Song, I know you are a good kid, and I also know that you consider Xi'er a friend. Now the matter is urgent, please help me run to Brother Bao and tell him that Li Er urgently needs his help."

"Brother Leopard? Brother Leopard...will he come?"

"I have helped Brother Bao a little before. Please go and pass on a message for me. As for whether you can come or not, don't worry about it." Then he took out a piece of gravel from his arms and said, "Take this to Brother Bao. He will understand after seeing it."

Xiao Song gritted his teeth and nodded heavily, "Okay, I'll go right away."

Li Xun frowned. Brother Leopard and Brother Tiger have always been at odds with each other. In this mine, the only one who can fight with Brother Tiger and his group is Brother Leopard.

The gravel he just found was accidentally found in the west mine, which was Tiger's territory. And the gravel, no matter from the color and texture, can only be found in the east mine under Leopard's jurisdiction. If Leopard is smart, he will definitely find the trick. I hope he can help them once for all this.

When Li Yi and his companions arrived, Li Xi had been beaten to a bloody mess. The old man who had been protected by Li Xi had also woken up at this moment, but like everyone else, no one dared to step forward to dissuade him.

Li Yi rushed forward and hugged Li Xi in his arms, "Please spare my life, my child is ignorant and has offended you. Please forgive me..." Before he finished speaking, the whip hit Li Yi's back hard, and the other party's face turned pale. His already weak body almost fell, and was supported by Li Yun who followed him, "Brother, are you okay?"

"Gentlemen, calm down. It was my child who bumped into you. I'm sorry." Li Xun immediately bowed and apologized after arriving. "Look, it's getting late. We haven't finished today's work yet. If the task is not completed, everyone will suffer and you will not be able to explain it. Otherwise... let's finish the work first. If you are not satisfied, we can let you deal with it after we finish the work today. How about that?"

Li Xun is now out of options and can only delay for a while. He hopes that Brother Leopard can be smarter and seize this opportunity to take down Brother Tiger's forces in one fell swoop.

"Oh, you are indeed a scholar, your words are different." Brother Tiger's voice sounded strange, his eyes staring at Li Xun as if filled with poison, "Even if the construction period is not met today, it is because of your brat. I, Tiger, will tell the higher-ups, and since I have worked for them for so many years, they will not do anything to me. But your little brat, hehe, your life is probably over."

Li Xun gritted his teeth and smiled ingratiatingly, "Yes, yes, Brother Hu is right. Look, there's still enough time. If we hurry up, we will definitely be able to finish the work today. You don't have to..."

"Don't try to be so rude. I've been fed up with your family for a long time. You're still acting so noble even though you're here. What a nobody. I heard that the arrogant young master gave you something a few days ago? Humph, I've heard that officials in Kyoto are used to these flattering tactics. Even if they're exiled here, they won't stop."

"I dare not." Li Xun looked submissive, but his eyes were frighteningly cold.

"Don't dare? I think you dare." Brother Tiger leaned close to Li Xun's ear and gritted his teeth, "Don't think I don't know that you have some friendship with that stinky leopard. You are like this now, do you think he will come to help you?"

"Hahaha, what are you doing? Brother Hu, what are you doing?" Brother Leopard's loud voice rang out, and a burly man eight feet tall strode over, followed by a dozen people who looked like thugs, each holding a stick as thick as an arm.

When Brother Tiger saw his scene, he spat in disdain. Speak of the devil and he will appear. "Who is this, Brother Bao? What's the wind blowing today that brings a busy man like you here? Or..." He looked at Li Xun with cold eyes, "Which bastard are you here to support?"

"I dare not say I support you, but here is my new brother, Li Xun," Brother Bao walked over and put his arm around Li Xun's shoulders, "I heard that he made a mistake here and offended Brother Tiger. Haha, am I not here to apologize on his behalf? Our Brother Tiger is very generous and will definitely not hold it against him, right?"

Brother Hu sneered, "What do you mean by great generosity? We are all working for great people. This family delayed my work schedule. I can't finish today's work. Shouldn't they be punished?"

Brother Bao was a little impatient. "It's just a small matter. Brother Tiger, you don't have to make such a big deal out of it. Give me some face, how about that?"

Brother Hu showed a disdainful smile, "Face? What face do you, Abao, have?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Brother Leopard's face became gloomy and terrifying. The group of people he brought rushed forward and surrounded Brother Tiger and his group. The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

"Hey, what's going on? A gang fight? Tsk tsk tsk, Lin Quan, is this mine always so interesting? I should have asked you to bring me here yesterday. Look, how much fun it is."

Lin Quan had a headache. This little ancestor was really... Then he looked at the one or two groups of people who were confronting each other with a sharp look in his eyes.
