Chapter 24: The Chaotic Koizumi Village

Here Yang Zhaoquan and the others took their horses and carts and headed north all the way to Juechen.

Niu Dapeng over there also sold vegetables. With the money he earned, he cut a piece of mutton and wanted to go home and improve his life.

As soon as he drove the ox cart to the entrance of the village, he felt that the atmosphere in the village was different from the previous relaxed one.

Seeing Mr. Niu's face full of gloom and twirling the ears of wheat in his hands, Niu Dapeng quickly stopped the cart and stepped forward to ask.

"Uncle, what's going on? Gong Qiang and the others are here to rob him again? That shouldn't be the case. He couldn't have stayed in bed for ten and a half days just because of those few blows from the fifth brother Yang."

"Come on, stop talking about your brother Yang Wu." The idle man next to him put down the dirt he was playing with and clapped his hands.

"You don't know, right after you left, a group of people came to ask about their whereabouts. That's a bad thing, we are in trouble!"

Mr. Niu glared at Xianhan, thinking that he couldn't speak and was too talkative.

Seeing the idle man shrinking his neck and squatting aside without saying a word, Mr. Niu turned to talk to Niu Dapeng.

"Dapeng, let me tell you straight, Yang Wu is by no means a simple person. Even his wife and those around him are not something we can afford to offend."

"Not long after you left, some people came to our village. They were very friendly. When I saw them coming in, I felt a little nervous..."

"Is this the person Gong Qiang and the others are looking for?" Niu Dapeng was still a little confused and simply interrupted Mr. Niu's lengthy narrative.

"It was Yang Wu who provoked his enemies outside, and they came to seek revenge on him!"

The idle man didn't keep his mouth shut, and quickly interjected while Niu Dapeng asked.

Mr. Niu's face darkened, and he raised his muscled hand and slapped the idle man hard on the back. Seeing that he was angry, the idle man hurriedly left with a haha ​​and excused himself, and went for a walk somewhere else.

"Look at us digging in the soil, the palms of our hands are covered with calluses, holding a hoe. Yang Wu, on the other hand, has a thick layer of calluses on the tiger's mouth and the left side of his index finger, holding a sword. He is a man of skill, and he is not the same as us!

"

Mr. Niu shook Yang Zhaoquan's hand and felt something was wrong at the time. After thinking about it carefully, he figured out something.

"Uncle, let's not talk about this for now. What did our enemies do?" Niu Dapeng was anxious and wanted to lead Mr. Niu straight to the point.

"They first asked Yang Wu if he was in the village, then asked if he was not in the village, and then asked which direction they walked."

"Then tell them all?" Niu Dapeng just wanted to know the result.

"The people in our village are also polite. People have helped us, but we... how can we repay kindness with hatred..." Mr. Niu's voice became more and more hollow as he spoke.

"They bribed me with money, and no one in the village said anything. But...but they threatened the little baby. Who can stand it as a parent, so I said..."

Niu Dapeng's heart sank a little bit with Mr. Niu's words, and finally hit the bottom. It was only a matter of time before his whereabouts were exposed and he would kill someone.

Both of them fell silent, and the atmosphere was awkwardly quiet. Mr. Niu's thoughts returned to that day.

The villagers had just seen off Yang Wu and his party, and they were a little excited with gratitude. You know, their village has never tasted the benefits of conflict.

It was true that they had resisted before, but not only did they not get the food back, but the young men in the village also received several beatings in vain.

This time, the food was at least protected, and most of the villagers were alive and kicking. On the contrary, the perpetrators were seriously injured, and Xiaoquan Village finally let out a bad breath.

Thinking that Gong Qiang would not return for a while, most of the men in the village left the village to inform their relatives in preparation for the second wave of revenge from Gongjia Village.

Unexpectedly, after a while, dozens of men with vicious faces rushed straight into the village, driving all the old, young, women and children left in the village together like animals.

A man was pacing left and right in the crowd, holding a shiny silver ingot in his hand, shouting that whoever revealed the whereabouts of Yang Wu would be rewarded.

Another man picked up Goudan's baby like a chicken, threatening to throw the baby to death if he didn't say anything.

On one side was the temptation of money, on the other side was the threat to life. The people of Koizumi Village, who have been honest for generations, had never seen this posture before, and they were half weak on the spot.

Goudan thought they were part of a group of food robbers, so he rolled over and took out the food bag, hoping to exchange the food for his son.

As a result, those people didn't even look at it. With a slash of their swords, the wheat that the villagers regarded as a treasure was scattered all over the ground.

The children were crying heartily in the dark, and the torches shone brightly and the scorching light shone on the panicked faces of the villagers. The sounds of pleas and sobs merged together.

The moment the man lifted Goudanwa, Goudan's wife, who was frantically trying to break out of the siege, collapsed to the ground as if she had lost a bone, and uttered the words "Yuankang City" in her mouth.

By the time the men came back, the group had already receded like a tide. Only women and children holding children in their arms were left, as well as an old man with a look of despair.

Niu Dapeng calmed down first.

"I'm going to report the news to Yang Wu!" He was so excited that he didn't even care about going home to eat mutton. He held on to the bullock cart and wanted to get on.

At that time, he took a secret shortcut to Yuankang City, and happened to miss the group. But if they met in the city, Yang Wu and his party would probably die.

"When you rush there, they will all leave the city, right? Do you know where they left the city?"

Mr. Niu's words were like a basin of cold water, which chilled his heart from top to bottom, and he froze when he got into the car.

"Niu Zhuang and his wife have taken their children to seek refuge with relatives. The house and land have been left to the care of my nephew. I think you should also take your wife and find a place to hide."

Niu Dapeng was blocked for a moment, then hesitantly said: "Summer harvesting and summer planting are the best times, so how can we leave at this time?"

Mr. Niu glared at him: "Food is important, but people are even more important. How can we cultivate even if our lives are gone!"

Niu Dapeng's thoughts were confused. In front of him was Xiaoquan Village, where he had lived for more than 20 years, but in his mind, Yang Wu's figure was playing in front of him when Gong Qiang called.

His mind was muddled and he was like an empty body, leading the cow and heading home.

"You heartless one! You're back!"

When Niu Dapeng's daughter-in-law, Mrs. Liu, saw her husband back, she seemed to have found her backbone. The symptoms of paralysis in her hands and feet for the past two days disappeared immediately, and she could curse vigorously and heartily.

"You feel free and at ease outside, but we orphans and widowed mothers are bullied to death at home!"

She grabbed her husband's lapel and began to cry, the more she cried, the harder she cried.

Niu Dapeng was in a state of confusion, and his wife's behavior was simply adding to the chaos. With his head full of lawsuits, he picked up the child who was also crying and comforted his wife absentmindedly.

"My sister-in-law's family packed up and left yesterday, which made me panic."

Mr. Liu lost her temper and felt much better. She calmed down and chatted with her husband about what she had seen in the neighborhood.

"Daughter-in-law, let us also clean up and go to your mother's house to hide."

Ms. Liu was so frightened that she wanted to go home. When her husband said this, she immediately burst into tears and laughed. She took her children to pick up the things her husband had brought back.
