Chapter 53 - Kill Whoever Steals

“RUMBLE—”

There was a loud bang and the yard door opened.

Su Dalang and Su Erlang immediately rushed inside. As soon as they entered the courtyard, they stopped, because Su Sanlang’s family was in the courtyard with knives and clubs in their hands.

Su Dalang pointed at Su Sanlang and cursed, “Su Sanlang, what are you doing? Are you going to kill your biological parents?”

Su Erlang also pointed at Su Sanlang and scolded, “Su Sanlang, you’re really heartless. Aren’t you afraid of getting struck by lightning?”

Su Sanlang glanced coldly at Su Dalang and Su Erlang before his gaze finally landed on Old Master Su. He said coldly, “I, Su Sanlang, have long had nothing to do with you. I have nothing to do with the rest of the family either. From now on, I, Su Sanlang, will establish my own clan. If you want to steal something today, don’t blame me for fighting to the death.”

“If there’s no way for our family to survive, then all of you can forget about living. Whoever dares to participate today, I’ll remember all of you. In the future, I, Su Sanlang, will definitely kill your entire family. If you dare to come, try it. See what I can do.”

Su Sanlang’s only eye swept coldly across everyone who entered the courtyard. There seemed to be blood in his eye, and his ruthlessness frightened everyone. They quickly retreated, afraid that Su Sanlang would remember them.

“Sanlang, you’re mistaken. We wouldn’t dare steal from you. Don’t do anything rash. I’m just here to watch.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Su Sanlang’s decisiveness was truly frightening. They didn’t dare think of stealing from him anymore.

It was fine to watch the show, but it would be bad if they got involved in the mess.

Everyone immediately distanced themselves from the Su family, indicating that they would definitely not steal anything.

After all, Su Sanlang had even dared to kill a tiger. He was a man who didn’t care about his life. A lunatic who didn’t care about his life. Who would dare to provoke him?

......

“What do you mean it doesn’t matter? Didn’t I give birth to you? If I hadn’t, where would you be now?”

Madam Wang cursed angrily with her hands on her hips.

Her eyes darted left and right, but she couldn’t find the tiger. The tiger must have been hidden. God was blind to this unfilial son.

Madam Wang looked at Su Sanlang, her eyes like a poisonous snake. She said, “Su Sanlang, I want you to return the favor. When you were born, you weighed six catties and four taels. These six catties and four taels, either you cut off your flesh to return it, or you use that tiger to repay it. After that, whether you live or die has nothing to do with us.”

After Madam Wang finished speaking, Su Sanlang sneered and said, “I didn’t ask you to give birth to me. Why should I return it just because you said so? I, Su Sanlang, have had no parents since the day I left the family. If you’re not convinced, go and ask the village chief to come and reason with me.”

He couldn’t be stupid enough to cut his flesh and die here.

Pay her back with the tiger? Even less likely.

Su Sanlang looked at Old Master Su and said coldly, “Since you want a tiger so badly, you can fight it yourself. You don’t need anything. Use your old wife as bait. You three are young and strong. Killing a tiger won’t be a problem. If you’re lucky, your old wife can also come back alive. As long as you’re careful and don’t lose an eye like me, you’ll be fine after hitting it a few times.”

Su Sanlang spoke casually, infuriating Old Master Su.

“You unfilial son. How dare you say such a treasonous thing.”

Old Master Su gritted his teeth and glared at Su Sanlang.

“Why wouldn’t I dare to say it? This is how I, Su Sanlang, fought the tiger. As long as you’re willing to risk your life, it’s not difficult to fight a tiger. It’s not just me. Any family can fight a tiger!”

Su Sanlang roared loudly like a tiger.

His family had traded their lives for it. Why should these people snatch it from him? He not only had to say it, but he also had to say it loudly.

“Su Dalang, you have three sons who are all half-grown boys. They have never starved or suffered from the cold, so they must be quite strong. If you let Madam Li be the bait, it won’t be a problem for you to kill a few wild boars, if not a tiger.”

Su Sanlang looked coldly at Su Dalang and said.

Before Su Dalang could reply, Madam Li’s face turned pale from fright. She said with a trembling voice, “Su Sanlang, stop sowing discord here.”

Su Sanlang snorted. “What sowing discord? My wife, Madam Zhao, did just that. You’re both mothers. If she could do it, why can’t you do it?”

Madam Li was so angry that she almost vomited blood. She gritted her teeth and said, “How can Madam Zhao compare to me? It’s not like I’m at my wits’ end. My three sons are all smart. I’m not like her, who only knows how to lay rotten eggs!”

“You can’t compare to Madam Zhao because you’re not worthy. You’ll never be able to compare to her. She dares to throw her life away, do you?”

Su Sanlang glared at Madam Li and said, “Su Dalang has three sons. There’s no point in having you. If you give yourself to the tiger, not only will your three sons have a good life, but Su Dalang can also find a new mother for his children. Look, how good is that?”

Madam Li felt as if her heart was suffocating. She was so angry that she wanted to scream. Su Sanlang was trying to push her into a fire pit.

Su Sanlang was clearly trying to divert the firepower. Madam Li was furious. When she saw Su Dalang looking at her with a thoughtful expression, Madam Li knew that Su Sanlang had got what he wanted.

Madam Li trembled as she tried to calm herself down. She said with a trembling voice, “Dalang, he’s trying to sow discord between us. There aren’t that many tigers in the mountains. Tigers aren’t that easy to fight. If they were that easy to kill, the tigers would have gone extinct long ago. He’s trying to send us to the tigers to be eaten so that our family can be wiped out.”

“Ha-ha.”

Su Sanlang sneered.

Su Dalang was not the only one who had an idea. The others also had an idea.

Madam Li’s eyes darted around. Seeing that Madam Zhou was trying to hide, a trace of ruthlessness flashed across Madam Li’s eyes. She immediately called out to Madam Zhou and said, “Second Sister-in-law, don’t you think I’m right? If it’s really so easy to kill a tiger, why don’t we all go and be bait? It’s fine as long as our sons and descendants can have a good life. But if they just want us to die, it won’t be worth it. Don’t you think so?”

How could Madam Li possibly allow Madam Zhou to escape?

If it wasn’t going to be easy for her, she wasn’t going to make it easy for anyone.

Madam Zhou cried out bitterly in her heart, but she had no choice but to agree with Madam Li and say, “Sister-in-law is right. It’s not easy to fight that tiger. As mothers, it doesn’t matter if we die. But if anything happens to our children and husbands, it would be meaningless. Even the officials have warned us to keep our distance from tigers and ferocious beasts.”

Who in their right mind would risk their lives to fight a tiger? Su Sanlang’s family had been forced into a corner, so they weren’t even afraid of tigers anymore.

However, their lives were still passable. How could they risk their lives for this?

“If you want to ask me how to fight a tiger, I, Su Sanlang, will definitely tell you without holding back. However, if anyone wants to steal my things, I will definitely not show mercy,” Su Sanlang said coldly as he glanced at the people in the courtyard.
