Liu Yan'er was carried away by that gang of ruthless bandits.

"Woof woof woof!"

Accompanied by a fierce bout of barking, the little Tibetan Mastiff leaped into the air like a cannonball.

Opening its mouth filled with sharp fangs, it viciously clamped down on the arm of the foremost burly man.

In an instant, blood splattered everywhere!

The little Tibetan Mastiff's teeth were like extremely sharp daggers, easily piercing through the man's thick clothing and skin, embedding deeply into his muscles.

The man felt a wave of excruciating pain wash over him, as if thousands of steel needles were stabbing into his body simultaneously, forcing him to let out a most shrill and miserable scream:

"Ahhh!"

Hearing the man's screams, his companions were filled with both shock and fury, brandishing the clubs in their hands as they closed in around the little Tibetan Mastiff.

The little Tibetan Mastiff rolled its round eyes, swiftly releasing its bite.

Seeing the crowd closing in, it chose the most frail-looking man to attack.

With a nimble twist of its body, it lunged toward that person like lightning.

In the blink of an eye, it was right in front of him.

The man was terrified out of his wits, but it was already too late to dodge.

He could only watch helplessly as the little Tibetan Mastiff's blood-red maw lunged at his shoulder.

With a tearing sound, a chunk of flesh was bitten right off his shoulder.

"Ahhh! Help!"

The man's heart-rending cries for help echoed across the heavens.

Taking advantage of the little Tibetan Mastiff engaging the others, Liu Yan'er grabbed Drolma and ran for their lives.

Seeing them escape, the man who had previously taunted Liu Yan'er wore a vicious expression:

"You guys deal with this dog, I'm going after them!"

Stinking bitch, don't let me catch you, or I'll finish you off!

The man was muscular and physically well-trained, and it took him no time at all to close the distance.

Just as he was about to catch up, an old man suddenly rushed out from the side, swinging a shovel downward in a single motion.

"Bang!!!"

The back of the man's head took the full blow, and he was instantly smashed open, bleeding profusely.

"Old bastard, you're courting death!"

The man wiped the blood from his head and charged fiercely toward the old man.

Hearing the commotion behind her, Liu Yan'er stopped in her tracks and looked back—it was none other than Elder Wang!

He was the one who had saved them just now, otherwise, they would have been caught long ago.

Liu Yan'er: "Little Drolma, run quickly to the veterinary station, lock the door, and hide well. I'll be right back!"

She could not just stand by and watch someone die, especially since Elder Wang had just saved her.

"Sister Yan'er..." Drolma was still quite scared, but Liu Yan'er urged her on:

"It's fine, go hide in there first, and I'll come find you later!"

Hearing this, Drolma hesitated no longer, nodded, and immediately sprinted toward the veterinary station.

By this time, the man had already grabbed Elder Wang and was preparing to teach him a lesson.

Liu Yan'er picked up the shovel from the ground and smashed it fiercely against the back of the man's head.

"Thud!"

Perhaps Liu Yan'er used more strength this time.

The man was not so lucky now and was knocked unconscious on the spot.

Seeing the man collapse to the ground, Liu Yan'er had just breathed a sigh of relief when a group of vicious thugs suddenly appeared ahead.

They had weapons tucked into their waists and carried large bags of all sorts, clearly having ransacked the yurts further ahead.

Two of them were even holding whips, driving a herd of cattle and sheep toward this direction.

Liu Yan'er hurriedly helped Elder Wang up, preparing to retreat in another direction.

To her dismay, there were several people in that direction as well.

Before long, Liu Yan'er and Elder Wang were completely surrounded by these people.

Seeing the unconscious man on the ground, one of them spat on the floor:

"Bah! This stinking bitch has some nerve, actually knocking out Fifth Brother!"

He cursed as he stepped forward and slapped Liu Yan'er across the face.

In an instant, Liu Yan'er's tender, delicate cheek turned red and swollen.

The group tied Liu Yan'er's hands behind her back and tossed the elderly Elder Wang aside carelessly.

Having bitten four or five of them, the little Tibetan Mastiff had already slipped away and fled.

Holding his wounded arm, one of them gnashed his teeth and said:

"Damn it! Don't let me catch that little mutt, or I'll skin it alive and pull its tendons out!"

"It's all because this stinking bitch ordered it! It hurts like hell!"

The man whose shoulder had been bitten earlier ran over and slapped Liu Yan'er twice more.

Liu Yan'er dared not speak her anger aloud, her apricot-like eyes glaring fiercely at him.

When Little Douzi comes back, he will definitely avenge her!

The man grew furious: "You still dare to glare at me? See if I don't beat you to death!"

With that, he raised his arm again, but someone quickly stopped him:

"Alright, Seventh Brother, it took us forever to find a young girl like this. Don't ruin her, she won't be as fun later."

Most of the people at the ranch had rushed out to fight the fire, leaving behind only the elderly, the weak, the women, and the children.

Forget about young lasses, they hadn't even seen a woman in her forties or fifties.

Having finally found a young girl, they had to take her back to report to the boss.

Hearing this, the Seventh Brother lowered his arm with a furious expression and said viciously:

"Humph! We'll let the boss have the first taste then. Once he's done enjoying her, it'll be my turn to properly play with this bitch! I must torture her until life is worse than death before I'm satisfied, or else I won't purge the hatred in my heart!"

The other man nodded upon hearing this and said, "Alright, I agree to this."

Standing nearby, Liu Yan'er had turned pale as paper, trembling all over from fright.

Although she had not yet experienced matters between men and women, she could fully understand the implications of these foul-mouthed remarks.

Fear and despair intertwined as tears streamed down her cheeks.

Liu Yan'er's heart was filled with helplessness and terror.

Sob, sob, sob, Little Douzi, where are you? Come and save me...

More than a dozen ruthless bandits swept through the area in a grand manner, taking all things of value and driving away a batch of cattle and sheep.

When Elder Wang regained consciousness from his faint and saw the utter devastation before him, a sense of foreboding gripped his heart.

He scrambled to his feet, searched everywhere, and discovered that Liu Yan'er and Drolma were gone.

They must have been taken away by those ruthless bandits.

Elder Wang also found several elderly people with bloody heads lying outside the doorways of some yurts.

He hurriedly applied his medical skills to treat them and properly settled those people down.

Then he headed to the ranch. As soon as he stepped inside, a heavy stench of blood hit his senses.

Elder Wang's heart skipped a beat.

Running forward for about ten minutes, he saw several staff members lying scattered across the ground.

Some of them had been killed by a single gunshot, while others had been shot in the chest, breathing faintly.

Elder Wang used acupuncture to provide emergency treatment first, then used the rotary dial phone at the veterinary station to call the hospital and the police station to report the situation.

Upon receiving the news, the hospital and the police station immediately dispatched personnel to the scene.

After settling everyone down, Elder Wang could no longer hold on, his head spinning as he collapsed to the ground.

Before losing consciousness, he was still worrying about Liu Yan'er and Drolma.

Both girls were very timid; who knew if they were crying in fright?

It was a pity he was too old and his body too weak; he simply lacked the energy to search for them.

I'm sorry, Lass Lin, I failed to protect your people...
