In Dou Zhutong's cottage, the clouds are closing and everyone is in a bad mood.
"Then what is this man doing? Holding a dead man in his arms and mourning?" Hua Pihu said.
"The eldest brother stayed in the house and didn't come out after he came back, and he didn't touch the food he brought in," the minion said anxiously.
Since the last incident, Dou Zhutong has stayed behind closed doors and only stayed with Lu Chunhua's corpse.
Hua Pihu opened the door, and the light from outside came in, and a pickled smell filled the room. Dou Zhutong was sitting on the ground in black clothes, with Lu Chunhua's body on the bed, quiet and peaceful, as if he was asleep. .
The flower-skinned tiger sighed and said: "You idiot, I know you hate me in your heart. You think I am using my power to bully you, so you secretly raise a child outside and don't tell me. But we are a married couple, and we have an unbreakable bond. , you can’t tell me what you have to say. If you are willing to tell me, why bother her suffering outside. But if you don’t want to say it, I will bet on this. Hey, it’s also my fault, otherwise she wouldn’t be like this. End."
After not seeing each other for a few days, Dou Zhutong seemed to have lost most of his three souls and seven souls. Lu Chunhua was dead, and he was not much different from a living dead.
"But she fell into the hands of bandits, and I don't know how she was ruined. I killed her just to improve her reputation. You hate me and blame me, and I don't blame you. But it was the bandits who killed her. You If she were a man, he should avenge her, chop off Cheng Dalei's head as a memorial, and then bury her with dignity in the ancestral grave of your Dou family, so that she can have a name even after she dies."
"I will kill Cheng Dalei myself." Dou Zhutong finally spoke, his voice hoarse.
"This is indeed my man." Huapihu said: "I have invited other village owners to come here to discuss matters. Eighteen families have joined forces. With just a few people in Toad Village, they can be slaughtered overnight. This is what you should do now."
"They...will all come?"
"Of course, people from Yunzhonglong, Qi Hupo, Zhu Wucang and others will come, and my cousin will also send people to help us. Now they are coming soon, do you plan to meet them like this?"
Dou Zhutong gritted his teeth and stood up from the ground, his joints creaking.
"Someone, get me some hot water."
Dou Zhutong regained his composure and asked his men to boil water for bathing, bathe and change clothes.
"Come here, come here..." Patty Tiger greeted with his hands: "Take this bitch's body out and burn it, and burn everything in the house."
After Dou Zhutong washed up and regained some energy, he returned to the house, only to see that the house was empty. Not only was Lu Chunhua's body missing, but the bedding, dishes and other items had also been moved away.
"People, where are people..." Dou Zhutong stammered.
"Brother, it was my sister-in-law who asked us to clear out, brother..."
Dou Zhutong felt a mouthful of hot blood rushing forward, his body swayed, his eyes darkened and his head fell down.
…
Dusk, Qingye Town.
A group of ferocious cottage horses came running, breaking the tranquility of the town in the evening.
"Listen up, young and old, we are the people of Toad King in Toad Village on Toad Island." Gao Feibao shouted on his horse: "Now King Toad wants the men in your town to work. The obedient ones will eat well and drink well and get money." , if you dare to say "no", don't blame the second grandpa's sword for not recognizing you!"
The town was in a state of chaos, with children screaming, adults crying, and everything in chaos.
"Everyone, please do your best. We are all old and young at the top." A gray-haired old man said.
"King Toad won't let you work in vain. Whoever goes will get money."
The old man couldn't express the pain in his heart. If this thing was snatched away by bandits, what chance would there be for him to survive? The only result would be death.
"Grandpa Wang, please be so kind and kind as to spare us."
"I'm discussing with you. I'm robbing people, do you understand?" Gao Feibao was furious: "Brothers, start robbing people!"
A group of people broke into the house and fished out all the men in the town.
"Thieves, I will fight with you." A big man yelled.
"My child's father, don't risk your life, my child's father..." A woman stopped him firmly.
Gao Feibao knocked him down easily, waved his hand and said: "Take it away, take it away."
They came and went like the wind, and finally one or two hundred people were gathered from the town and gathered in the square in the center of the town.
"King Toad just wants you to do some work. If you are dishonest, think about the lives of your wives, children, and children." Gao Feibao shouted on his horse.
All the men gnashed their teeth and just wanted to fight these bandits. However, considering that they had an old mother above them, wives and children below them, and considering the terror of these bandits, they could only suppress the anger in their hearts.
"take away."
Gao Feibao waved his hand and left with these two hundred strong laborers. After they left, Qingye Town burst into tears.
"Mayor, can they come back alive?"
"They will come back, it's just that the bandits caught them to work..."
"Hey, why are you back? Did you forget that the last bones of the people captured at Qinchuan Pass were not seen, and they were alive and dead but not corpses."
"Lao Zhang, your son is outside today and you are glad that he was not arrested, aren't you?"
Gao Feibao escorted the people back to the island. At this time, there were more than 2,000 people on the island. These people were snatched back by Cheng Dalei from nearby villages and towns, and they are all gathered on the island now.
"Master, I'm back, where are we going to rob people tomorrow?" Gao Feibao.
"Uh... there are almost enough people. There is no need to rob tomorrow. Let them do their work."
"I know, Boss, I also heard a news today that Mo Mingmi also went to Qinchuan Pass to rob people. It is said that these people were robbed to Qinchuan Pass and never came back."
"I've heard about this too, is it a sweatshop?"
Two thousand strong men gathered together, most of them were farmers. Even though some of them were fierce, they still beat the drum when they fell into the hands of bandits.
"Carpenter, is there anyone who knows how to be a carpenter? Take two steps forward." Xu Shenji.
"Bricklayer, take two steps forward between the tiles."
These people are not sure what the bandits are doing. Should they kill them directly or try to recruit everyone to join them and become bandits? Now, they can only follow the bandits' instructions step by step.
Time was tight and the task was heavy, so we had to let everyone work all night long. Bonfires were lit everywhere on the island, lighting up the night sky brightly.
"Third brother, what do you think these bandits are doing to arrest us?" Two men from the same village asked while building a wall.
"Doesn't this make us work?"
"The key is, after we finish our work, can we still be alive and go?"
"This...I'm afraid we won't know until we finish the work."
"Then let's not work hard for him, just do whatever we want to make a living."
The two of them had the same idea, but it was strange. The walls they built were flat and straight. Even if they had been serious before, they would not have done such a good job.
