The Fifth Elder was so angry he jumped up and down, "You saw it, this is how the US military treats you."
The Fourth Elder dared not refute this at this point. After all, he really couldn't be sure whether the US military would treat them the same way now that they had cooperated with them.
The county magistrate sighed deeply. "Enough talk. Let's think about what to do now."
The Third Elder had been deep in thought. He looked at the others and said, "You all say that these children have already been taken away by them. Even if they are dead, they could have simply buried them or thrown them into the mountains. Why did they still send their bodies to the outside of our city gate?"
The county magistrate looked up at the Third Elder and said, "Aping, just say what you're thinking."
The Third Elder spoke angrily, "Provocation! This is blatant provocation. Perhaps Ah Gui played a significant role in this."
Upon hearing Ah Gui's name, the elders couldn't help but become excited. Indeed, they had thrown Ah Gui out, and Ah Gui had harbored thoughts of revenge against them.
The Fifth Elder looked at the group and said, "Are we just going to let this go? I can't swallow this. If we let it go this time, will they do something like this again in the future?"
Furthermore, if we tolerate this, the US military might think we're easy to bully and continue to bully us like this.
It must be said that the Fifth Elder's analysis made perfect sense. The county magistrate sighed, "I know that too, but we only have a few broken guns, how can we fight them?"
If fighting breaks out, will even more people die? We don't know if we'll ever have the peaceful days we've worked so hard for.
Furthermore, without the goddess's help, how can we possibly win?
The Third Elder looked at the County Magistrate and asked, "County Magistrate, why don't you think the Goddess will help us?"
County magistrate...
Fourth Elder...
Fifth Elder...
Others...
The county magistrate sighed, "The goddess said she doesn't want to be involved in the karma of killing."
The Third Elder's eyes lit up. "What if we don't let the Goddess get involved in any karma? We'll bear all the consequences ourselves."
The group stared at the Third Elder, who stood up excitedly. He paced around the room a few times. "The Goddess was originally sent down to the mortal realm to find her protector; she has nothing to do with us. The Goddess has already helped us a lot, and the current conflict with the American army is our own business."
"We can't ask the goddess to do everything, can we?"
The Fifth Elder rubbed his head. "Aping, I didn't understand what you said."
