CHAPTER 1055: CHAPTER 1055 SEVEN ORIFICES

Bai Xiao took out the silver needle, Jian Nan felt a sense of certainty.

Just now, the pain vanished the moment those two silver needles were inserted.

It seems the girl in front of him believed what he said.

The silver needle was applied, this time the bones in his body weren’t painless anymore.

He found it strange as well. This girl, her medical skills were indeed remarkable. Just a few minutes with the silver needle and it felt as if his bones had healed.

Bai Xiao flicked the silver needle.

Instantly, pain surged out from Jian Nan’s bones, an agony that penetrated skin, flesh, and bone seams.

He wished he could die from the pain immediately.

This pain was ten, even a hundred times worse than when his bones were initially broken.

Of course, he couldn’t see himself. If he could, he’d know that his eyes had bled from the sheer pain.

Saying it’s bleeding from every orifice wouldn’t be an exaggeration.

Bai Xiao pulled out the silver needle.

Jian Nan finally collapsed on the ground, the pain gradually subsiding, but the mere thought of it sent shivers down his spine.

"Jian Nan, if you obediently do what you must, I’ll apply the silver needle again, ensuring that you won’t experience this pain anymore. But if you harbor dishonest thoughts, thinking you can be cunning and run off on your own.

Then I must frankly tell you, every night at midnight, the pain will return as expected.

This time it only lasted a few minutes, and you know very well how it feels. But if you don’t turn yourself in truthfully, explain your situation, the pain will last for half an hour at midnight. Once all seven orifices bleed, there’s no saving you.

If you sacrifice your life for others, I must say, I admire your courage."

Bai Xiao stored away the silver needle, placing the acupuncture kit back into her backpack.

This time, she didn’t bother with treating Jian Nan’s injuries; people like him deserved a bit of a lesson.

Jian Nan, now weak and limp, finally realized that there were such means in the world, rendering one unable to live nor die.

Even though he truly wanted to die from the pain moments ago, he was too weak to even attempt it.

Just recalling it now makes his heart ache terribly.

"I don’t dare, I don’t dare, I will certainly do what needs to be done." Jian Nan wanted to live.

Even ants cling to life, he wanted to live even more, not wanting to die so horribly.

His eyes were wet, a swipe of his palm, full of blood, Jian Nan almost fainted.

Who was this? The little girl didn’t seem fierce at all, nor terrifying.

Yet now, in his mind, this girl was fiercer than Lord Yama.

"If you dare, then I don’t care. Life or death is up to you; if you wish to die, no one will stop you." Bai Xiao stood up, Jian Nan had given all he could, there was no need to ask further.

Jian Nan was just like the many thugs under Wang Ruo’an, hired hands that can be discarded at will.

But this time, Jian Nan was not garbage! Not a piece of trash, but a knife at their disposal.

He could be a knife that wounds Wang Ruo’an deeply.

An Zhiyuan glanced at Jian Nan, no need for further threats, he was a soldier! How could he stoop to such coercive measures?

Protecting Bai Xiao as they went outside, "Big Head, let’s go."

The man called Big Head was explaining to the neighborhood ladies, who were bearing red armbands, and had come to check after hearing noises.

Upon hearing the captain’s words, he breathed a sigh of relief, explaining to these ladies was more exhausting than training. He would rather run five kilometers than suffer this ordeal.

Slick-talking with a bunch of neighborhood ladies was sheer agony.

The neighborhood ladies watched the trio leave, seeing the gate seemingly left open.

The screams from the house earlier were indeed frightening.

Never underestimate these neighborhood ladies! Gossiping instincts are relentless.

Peering around, they saw a man hobbling out, wearing black pants but baring a shirtless torso, looking utterly distressed with blood on his face.

Out of concern, one immediately asked, "What happened to you? Do you need us to call the police on your behalf? Looks like those three people did it, two men and a woman, you were attacked, right?"

That voice was unforgettable to anyone.

Jian Nan shivered almost instantly upon hearing these words.

Want me dead?

How much do they hate me?

"None of your damn business!" He slammed the door shut.

A few ladies narrowly missed getting hit by the door.

They exchanged helpless looks.

"Really, people nowadays have issues, we meant well, and it was taken as ill intentions."

"Exactly! Clearly not a good person, bet they were here for revenge."

"Such people deserve to be beaten to death, didn’t you see those tattoos, clearly up to no good."

"Let’s go! Let’s not bother, even if they yell themselves hoarse, we won’t intervene."

Furious, a few old ladies stormed off.

Jian Nan kicked two of his subordinates twice; the ropes they were bound with had been untied, but they’d been tied for so long they felt numb, rolling on the ground miserably, as if ants were biting them.

"Get up, still pretending to be dead?"

Jian Nan sat on a chair, momentarily regaining his leader’s demeanor, quite imposing, only he knew that he was still engulfed in that kind of excruciating pain.

"Nan ge, I’ll find someone to dig three feet under if necessary to find those people, break their legs, and bring them before you so you can vent your anger." One subordinate flattered, knowing their boss must have suffered, the screams were truly grating.

Such screams were unbearable.

They had no choice, unable to block their ears, otherwise they would have shut it out.

Usually, they only bullied others! They had never seen themselves bullied like this.

Yet the boss was strong, having been dealt such a blow but now seemed unperturbed despite the blood on his face.

No wonder he’s their boss, such composure is rare among people.

"Get lost, I warn you, this matter never happened, we’ve never seen those three people, nor do we know them, understand?" Want to die?

You’re bringing trouble to me.

Dare to deal with them, do you want me dead faster?

Every midnight at twelve it will ache once, and if bleeding from all seven orifices, you’re doomed.

Now Jian Nan wants to cozy up to them, couldn’t think of a way to survive.

Still dare to make a fuss, isn’t this courting death?

"Ah, brother, this is...?"

Didn’t quite understand.

Their brother was someone who never let grievances slide, anyone who crossed Jian Nan would usually meet their end by the next day.

Yet now brother mentioned nothing of this matter.

"Whoever mentions this matter again, they’re dead." Jian Nan was furious, kicking his subordinates hard again.

"Boss! Boss, Nan ge, we were wrong, wrong."

They begged for mercy, they were in pain too, having been bound and thrown on the ground couldn’t be comfortable.

Watching Jian Nan go inside, they sighed in relief, whispering among themselves.

Surely these people are powerful, judging by Nan ge’s tendency to prey on the weak, it’s clear they’ve encountered tough opposition.
