Though everything before him felt utterly bewildering, the middle-aged man knew he had to deal with Jiang Ran first. So, just like when he fought Jiang Ran before, he employed Mad Dog Fist again. But this time, even with a hammer in one hand and a dagger in the other, Jiang Ran effortlessly dodged all his attacks. Instead, he himself took several punches from Jiang Ran, even losing two teeth in the process. Instantly, he felt the person before him was completely different from before.

"Dad! I'll help you!" The young man, who had been about to assault Xiao He right there, seeing the sudden turn of events, immediately stepped forward and took the dagger from his father's hand. Then, the father-son pair abandoned Mad Dog Fist altogether, directly attacking Jiang Ran with their weapons. Facing the pincer assault from both, Jiang Ran's footwork was incredibly agile. He dodged the father and son's attacks like a butterfly, while his own punches were like a bee's—swift, accurate, and ruthless. This was Muhammad Ali's famous butterfly footwork. Soon, the middle-aged man was knocked unconscious. After his father fell, the young man was also disoriented by three punches and collapsed to the ground with a thud.

Seeing both were unconscious, Jiang Ran picked up the hammer from the ground and walked toward the middle-aged driver rolling on the ground clutching his crotch. The middle-aged driver was continuously moaning in agony, veins on his forehead writhing like earthworms. His entire face was flushed crimson red, red like it was raining countless droplets of sweat. His attention was entirely focused on his crotch, so he didn't even notice Jiang Ran approaching. Jiang Ran walked up and gave him a hammer blow to the head, essentially performing a manual anesthesia to temporarily relieve his pain and put him into a deep, unconscious sleep.

"I'm such a good person," Jiang Ran said with a grin. He stared at the four unconscious people on the ground, knowing it wasn't over yet. Using the rope these three had prepared to tie him and Xiao He up, he bound each of their upper bodies separately. Then, he connected each person to the back of the black sedan with a rope. After ensuring everything was set, Jiang Ran searched the car but couldn't find any water. So, he simply went over to the three tied-up individuals, dropped his pants, and awakened their slumbering souls with a stream of distinctly aromatic iced tea.

"Pwah! What is this smell!" The young man was the first to wake up, feeling a foul, pungent odor on his face along with pain throughout his body. The other two also woke up around the same time. They similarly sensed the foul smell on their faces but didn't know what it was. When they saw Jiang Ran pulling up his pants, they understood everything.

"Damn it! You little brat!" Perhaps because he had just woken up, the pain in his crotch hadn't fully registered with his nerves yet. The middle-aged driver tried to get up and charge at Jiang Ran, only to discover his upper body was tied up with rope. His lower body could move freely, but a rope connected him to the rear of the car. Looking at the other two, they were in the same situation. Instantly, the middle-aged driver realized the situation was hopeless—they were completely done for... And right then, the intense pain in his crotch returned. He convulsed all over, wishing for death.

Among the three, he was clearly the leader, so he actually managed to endure the severe pain and started negotiating with Jiang Ran: "Young man, we were wrong, we shouldn't have had ill intentions toward you. How about we coexist peacefully?" Jiang Ran replied cheerfully, "When I was being beaten up by you all earlier, why didn't you talk about peaceful coexistence then?" The middle-aged driver forced an ingratiating smile: "At that time, we didn't know your true capabilities—you are truly a hero! Now that we know you're a hero, a great hero, I want to negotiate peace. Of course, for what we did to you earlier, we have compensation. How about 100,000 yuan for medical expenses? Besides, look at that girl traveling with you, Xiao He. Even though she looks ordinary, she seems to be an untouched maiden—don't you want to try something fresh? If you're not satisfied with her, I have a female college student at home who was just acquired and hasn't been sold yet. She's quite pretty with nice skin. Let the three of us go, and I'll have her give you a really good time."

The middle-aged driver talked until his mouth was almost dry. He had offered every condition he could think of. But looking at Jiang Ran's grinning expression from start to finish, it seemed he wasn't satisfied? Gritting his teeth, the middle-aged driver decided to make a desperate offer! "Brother, if you think the money is too little, I can raise it to 200,000—that's all the money I have right now! As for women, if you're not satisfied, my wife, and even my elder brother's wife, I'll let you sleep with them, how about that!" Wow, to save his own skin, he was already offering up his own wife. But Jiang Ran's head shake made the middle-aged driver completely break down. Seriously, not even tempted by this? But then what Jiang Ran said next rekindled his hope.

Jiang Ran said: "We've come to know each other through conflict, so I don't really intend to make things too difficult for you. How about this—I like playing games. Let's play a game among the four of us. As long as you pass the level, I'll let you go, and we'll act like we never met today. How about that?" The middle-aged driver quickly asked: "What game?" Jiang Ran said: "Later, I'll drive the car. The speed will increase from 0 to 5, then 10, all the way up to 20. As long as you keep up, I'll let you go. What do you think?" The middle-aged driver looked at the other two, who both nodded in agreement. They had no choice but to agree—they were tied up too tightly to break free. They were at Jiang Ran's mercy, completely vulnerable. Moreover, they thought the game's difficulty wasn't very high. If the car speed was 20 kilometers per hour, that's even slower than the new national standard speed limit! Giving it a try was feasible! So, with everyone's agreement, Jiang Ran got into the driver's seat of the black sedan and started the game.

As the black sedan started up, Jiang Ran carefully controlled the speed, gradually bringing it to 5. He stuck his head out the window and shouted to the back: "Current speed is 5 kilometers per hour! I'll maintain this speed for one minute, then increase to 10!" Five kilometers per hour is equivalent to an adult's walking pace, so the three tied behind the car only needed to walk to keep up with the speed. One minute passed. The speed increased to 10 kilometers per hour. The three stopped strolling and began jogging. Next, at 15 kilometers per hour, their running pace quickened. Finally, at 20 kilometers per hour—for a normal person who isn't an athlete and hasn't had professional training, short-distance speed is roughly between 15-20 kilometers per hour. Therefore, among the three, the youngest guy could handle this speed okay. The other two, already middle-aged and having not run for who knows how many years, had to push themselves to the absolute limit just to maintain this pace for that single minute.
