The people who went after them pinned the burly man on the ground. A fat man stomped on the burly man's face rudely so that the latter could not lift his face from the ground.
"Let's see you run again! I dare you to run again! You must be courting death!" The fat man shouted as he whipped the burly man.
As he endured the pain, the burly man screamed to the little girl, "Xiao Jiu, run!"
The little girl sat on the ground, scared, but she turned around to look at the helpless brawny man as tears fell from her eyes.
"Please, don't hurt him. I won't run. I won't run again." The little girl cried and crawled toward those fat men.
An ugly man yanked the girl's hair, dragged her up, and slapped the little girl's face in one swift motion.
