There were a total of five men running after them. Outnumbered, Zhang Heng ran to the assailants instead of waiting for them to get to him. The leader of the group and the one at the back were about five or six meters apart.
Since they were all fixated on the gypsy, they were unable to react in time when Zhang Heng came for them.
The person leading the band of pursuers was about to shout, attempting to scare the Asian man, but the easterner made the first move, punching him in the trachea. A sharp pain shot up the man's neck, and the leader of the group crumpled on the ground, clutching his neck and wheezing as he struggled for breath.
Zhang Heng didn't stop there. With a violent kick, he sent the person behind the leader crashing into a fish stall. The unlucky bastard overturned the cart of salmon and was buried under a pile of smoked fish.
