Apocalypse Cockroach Chapter 86

Yuan Yi swept a glance at Cannon, and swiftly pulled out her .54 and fired a shot.

"Peng!" The bullet landed at the feet of Cannon, causing a cloud of dust to rise. Cannon abruptly came to a stop, as the black muzzle of the gun rested in between his brows. At this time, he could neither advance nor back down, and his forehead was slick with perspiration.

Yuan Yi's eyes were red, but there was a hint of ridicule in it. She shot Brother Long a challenging glare, as she exerted more strength with her feet.

"Ah…" Old Hairy could not tolerate the pain and scream out once more. Yuan Yi kept the .54 steadily pointed at Cannon's head, without a hint of shaking.

Brother Long stared at Yuan Yi with disbelief. He looked towards Zhang Xiao Qiang, who in turn, chuckled back: "Haha, Brother Long, this can't be blamed on me. Who asked Old Hairy to step out of his boundaries? Yuan Yi's pissed, I went to stop her and was almost slapped in return."

Brother Long again turned to look at Yuan Yi, asking in surprise: "How did she become like this in such a short period of time? Lil' bro, what's your secret?"

"Keke, you're jesting. How can I have any tricks? It was just that today, Yuan Yi went to challenge a big and strong monster, and killed it with her bare hands. After that she became like this, I also can't wrap my head around it?"

Zhang Xiao Qiang did not reveal that it was he who forced Yuan Yi to fight the D-Type. Furthermore, before Yuan Yi had attacked the D-Type, she had killed a few ordinary zombies. If it were Brother Long, he would have never thought of doing something like this in his wildest dreams.

Brother Long and the rest of his men behind him had a huge change of expressions. They couldn't believe their ears. A woman actually did something that none of the men here dared to do?! A single word. Strong. However, Brother Long didn't seem to believe it, his eyes still showing hints of apprehension.

"Yuan Yi, stand down! Are you tired of living?" Brother Long shouted at Yuan Yi, as though to rely on his past hold over her to control her.

However, she was no longer that weak and cowardly Yuan Yi. She could fight against zombies now and had gained the courage to face her fears. Zhang Xiao Qiang was also vexed over her. He might be able to control her now, but what about in the future?

Yuan Yi looked at Brother Long and lifted her leg, which caused him to relax. He thought that fortunately, he still had some degree of control, and could scare her into submission. He was already beginning to think of how to ask for her back.

"Kacha…." After she lifted her foot, she immediately brought it down swiftly, stomping on Old Hairy's right knee. This time, he was truly crippled. All 3 joints have been ruined. In the future, all he could do was to lie on the bed, plus he had no family to take care of him, his future in this apocalypse was basically sealed.

Brother Long saw that his threat was ignored by Yuan Yi, and he immediately flared with anger. This Yuan Yi in front of him had been sprawled like a bitch for him in the past! She was just a lowly bitch! "You want to rebel?!" He reached for his waist.

Yuan Yi brought the gun to aim at Brother Long. This time, everyone froze.

Zhang Xiao Qiang watched silently. He was also pissed inwardly. What did Brother Long treat him as? He was still shouting at Yuan Yi in front of him, furthermore, Zhang Xiao Qiang really found Old Hairy an eyesore. He was glad that Yuan Yi had taught Old Hairy a lesson on his behalf. Even if she was a little rowdy, and had almost slapped him by mistake, it was an internal matter. When was it Brother Long's turn to come and stick his nose in their matters?

When he saw Brother Long about to reach for his gun, he really almost exploded there. He would teach his own people, there was no need for Brother Long to step out of line. That was intolerable! Until Brother Long was stopped right in his tracks by Yuan Yi's gun. Zhang Xiao Qiang whooped in his heart, almost humming a tune out of pleasure.

Brother Long's face was ashen, everyone behind him was also stunned. Only Chen Yi had a slightly gloating smile, he was happy that Brother Long lost face here. If it was not settled right, Brother Long's prestige would be dashed, then he would stand a chance.

Amidst their silence, Zhang Xiao Qiang's gaze fell on Yang Ke'er's worried face. After all, Brother Long was Yang Ke'er's relative. It was all a matter of face, and since he would not stay here for long, he decided to let it go.

"Yuan Yi put the gun down. Everyone's looking, yea? Otherwise, people will say I don't know how to teach my people." He finally spoke. However, he wasn't sure if she would listen. If in the event, she suddenly felt that she had grown wings, then he would be helpless as well!

Fortunately, Yuan Yi looked towards Zhang Xiao Qiang, her eyes faltering, and she finally brought the gun down. She then stood by his side, her eyes still bloodshot. Yang Ke'er was extremely displeased and wanted to teach her a lesson. However, she did not do anything, just bearing the episode in mind.

Zhang Xiao Qiang had been keeping an eye on her, shooting her a look when she was fuming. Any issues would be handled privately, and not to be washed out in the public.

"Hahaha!! Lil' Bro, you're truly are a man amongst man. How long has it been, this woman is already under your control? Ai! We truly have grown old!!!"

Brother Long chuckled loudly, as though to brush the whole thing aside, and this would be an issue within Zhang Xiao Qiang's own faction.

"Brother Long is jesting! However, Brother Long, Yuan Yi is already my woman, she has no ties with her past anymore, I trust that Brother Long has not forgotten that?"

Zhang Xiao Qiang was subtly warning Brother Long and Chen Yi not to have any ideas towards him, otherwise, he would just sweep everything away.

"Hahaha! Lil' Bro is right, one must take care of his own women! Don't you agree, Brother Long?"

Chen Yi saw that there was a chance to slap Brother Long's face further and began to speak for Zhang Xiao Qiang, as though they were both on the same side.

Brother Long's face turned ugly, and he spoke gruffly to his men: "Carry this useless trash in!"

Two men stepped out, one carrying Old Hairy in front, the other behind, and carried him in. Brother Long was about to turn and leave when Zhang Xiao Qiang called out.

"Brother Long, I had some decent returned today when I went out, can I trouble Brother Long to calculate how much is the tax?"

When the truck doors were opened, and they saw the amount of food stacked neatly, as well as the apples that had rolled out of their boxes, everyone went slacked-jaw. Having eaten rice and vegetables day after day, how could they not be attracted to the apples?

"Haha, Lil' Bro, you struck a fortune eh, where did you get all these? We haven't had fruit in so long. Our mouths are all watering!" Chen Yi immediately exclaimed, his eyes lighting up. However, he didn't move, since the rules were there for a reason. Other than those taxable, the rest had to be found by oneself.

"Since Brother Long and Brother Yi have been so generous with this little brother, I shall be open as well! 2,000 jins of rice. 80 cartons of apples, 40 bottles of oil. There's also a few cartons of red wine for you guys. It's all etiquette anyway. The two of you, help yourselves, please!!"

Zhang Xiao Qiang waved his hands, and the goods on the trucks were given to Brother Long and Chen Yi. In any case, he had kept a whole load for himself. This was considered the dowry for Yuan Yi and Su Qian.

Brother Long and Chen Yi immediately broke into smiles. They were not dumb and knew what Zhang Xiao Qiang meant. Yuan Yi and Su Qian were now properly exchanged for with goods. He was formally returning them their goodwill, and it represented that no one owed anyone anything.
