Half a pot of rabbit and thirty or so steamed buns was not a small amount, but there were a lot of people. Seven or eight people, young and old, plus three kids, devoured the food in no time.
After a simple tidying up, the three thieves were brought to the middle of the yard.
He Shan asked, "Uncle, do you want to ask a few questions?"
The old man shook his head and replied, "Bring him here first, then we'll talk about it later. It's easiest to kill him directly."
The three thieves were injured and bleeding, and had been cold and hungry for almost two days. They were on the verge of death, and even the toughest ones would succumb.
After all, it is better to live a miserable life than to die!
But they were finally brought forward and had the opportunity to defend themselves or fight for their lives, but the old man seemed unwilling to listen to them!
The three of them were all anxious, twisting their bodies desperately, whimpering incoherently, like maggots struggling in the mud!
Everyone looked on with disdain. How could he have the guts to kidnap someone else's child but not the courage to bear the consequences?
If all the people in the underworld were this kind of people, they would be looked down upon!
The old man ignored the three people's reluctance and anxiety. He called He Shan, asked for two daggers, threw them to Yonglu and Yongyue, and said coldly, "Go, kill them and avenge yourselves!"
Kill them?!
Yonglu and Yongyue widened their eyes in horror and subconsciously took two steps back.
Although they are smarter than ordinary children, they are only in their early ten years old. The people they usually come into contact with are either villagers or people like Manager Min and Banxianer who are on good terms with their family.
It cannot be said that they grew up in a honeypot, but they definitely have never faced real danger and blood.
Today, they were suddenly asked to use knives to kill people...
This is completely beyond their tolerance!
The old man, completely different from his usual gentle demeanor, kicked his grandson's butt and scolded him harshly, "Aren't you always shouting for war and killing at home, as if you are braver than anyone else? Why are you so cowardly now?
"They kidnapped you, starved you, froze you, and took you south to exchange for silver. They threatened our family and then killed you! These are your enemies!
"If you had any courage at all, you would have killed them to avenge yourselves! But you were actually afraid of them, and you scared them so much that they became timid and cowered, even worse than the chickens you raise at home!
"Don't say you are from the Tai family when you go out. We don't have trash like you in the Tai family!"
The two boys' eyes turned red and their hands were shaking after being scolded.
The old man snorted coldly, ripped the rag from the man's mouth, and scolded him, "If you want to live, tell the truth!"
The contact coughed several times due to thirst, but in order to survive, he quickly responded with a hoarse voice, "I'll tell you, I'll tell you! Cough cough, spare my life!"
"Did you arrest my two boys on a whim, or did you do it on purpose?" the old man asked from the beginning.
The contact immediately responded, "We did it on purpose! Someone paid us to capture your little girl, saying they would chop off one of her arms to scare your family, and then we could get something from your family. But I don't know what it is, only this old man knows!"
Everyone stared when they heard this. Thinking of how Zhuzhu almost fell victim to a murder, they were so angry that they wanted to eat her!
Yonglu and Yongyue were no longer afraid and simply grabbed the knife.
The contact was frightened and quickly poured out the beans from the bamboo tube and continued to talk.
"But we kept waiting and didn't see your little girl, so the old man said they were waiting outside the village and asked me to meet them on the other side of the mountain. Whoever they could catch would be the one, whether it was a boy or your woman.
"Anyway, I'll chop off some arms and legs and send them to your family. If your family refuses to give me anything, I'll continue chopping! If we catch a woman, it'll be even easier. I'll just strip her naked..."
He was halfway through his words when he saw everyone's expressions and changed his tone decisively, "We didn't expect your family to be so powerful and come after us so desperately. We just wanted to give the boy to the employer and let him decide... It was all the old man's idea, not mine, not mine!"
Unfortunately, the three of them came together to harm the Tai family, how could he possibly get rid of the responsibility!
The old man pointed at his two grandsons and cursed, "Look, this is the scum you are too soft-hearted to kill! They didn't hold back on you or our family! Zhuzhu is so young, if she fell into their hands, I'm afraid she would die in a day! Zhuzhu is your own sister!
"And your mother, if she were captured, even if she wasn't humiliated, if she came back alive, she would be pointed at and criticized by everyone, and she would never be able to hold her head up high in her life!
"You useless bastards, you cowardly wimps! Pick up your knives and stab me! You don't even have the courage to kill your enemy. How can you protect your mother and your sister if you encounter danger in the future?"
The two boys' eyes were completely red!
Yonglu was the first to grab the knife and stabbed it into the old man's stomach. The old man groaned and his cotton jacket was immediately stained red with blood!
Yonglu's hands trembled as he struggled to pull out the knife and stabbed again with his eyes closed!
Unexpectedly, Yongyue was even more ruthless than him. He held the knife in both hands and stabbed it straight into the big man's eye socket!
The big man was in so much pain that he spat out the rag in his mouth and wailed for mercy at the top of his lungs, "It hurts so much, spare me, spare me! We're doing a favor for money, not seeking revenge! I know who the employer is, spare my life and I'll tell you!"
Yongyue hesitated for a moment and looked at his grandfather.
The old man came forward with a hatchet, slashed the big man's neck with a wave of his hand, then pointed at the contact and told his grandson, "Kill him!"
