Tong Wenyao and the others saw this scene. Dongzi smiled and said to her, "Boss, don't you think that man's retribution has come? There's no way to stop it! He was so fierce just now, but now he's kneeling down to beg for help."
Tong Wenyao glanced at Dongzi and nodded, "Yes, evil will be punished, and good will be rewarded. The same is true when I teach you to be good."
Cheng Kuan looked at Dongzi with a strange expression. Sometimes he really wanted to pry open his head to see what was inside! This was obviously the drug given by Master Su, but he said it was his own fault.
It's hard for him to stay in the bandit's lair for so long.
If he had seen the previous Dongzi, he would probably think that the current Dongzi had become smarter. The previous Dongzi did whatever his uncle told him to do. After following the eldest brother, Xing'er began to ask him to recognize a few words from time to time. When he was free, he would go to Confucius to attend classes. Now he has slowly developed his own thoughts in his head.
The farce was still going on below. After the captain came to his senses, he realized what he had just done in public. However, even if he kowtowed and begged for mercy, he could not escape punishment. He was dragged away by the soldiers unwillingly.
After a long time, the boat was full of people. Tong Wenyao and her friends got on earlier, so they occupied a good spot. Others wanted to come over, but when they saw the tall stature of Cheng Kuan and Cheng Hong, they couldn't help but give in.
"We estimate that we won't reach the shore for a while, so let's take a nap first. One person will stay here to watch over us. We'll each take turns sleeping for a quarter of an hour tonight."
She estimated the time. She had walked here since evening, and now it was probably Chou or Zi. They also heard the crowing of chickens in the village, so she could only estimate the time so that everyone could sleep.
Cheng Kuan waited for a quarter of an hour, and then came to Cheng Hong, and then to Dongzi and her. After everything was arranged, she curled up on the deck railing and dozed off. The railing here was made of wood, so there was no need to worry about falling down while sleeping in the middle of the night. Fortunately, Tong Wen Yao had been on a boat before, so she was not afraid of seasickness when she took it again.
What surprised them was that the ship did not dock at the shore until noon, and this shore looked very familiar to Tong Wenyao and the others.
Cheng Kuan came closer and said, "This safe haven is where the old man took them to rest." Cheng Kuan thought that if this was the case, then the old man was also involved in this, but why did he let them go last time?
The location where the big ship docked was exactly the same as where the old man docked last time. After the soldiers urged them to get off the boat, they began to drive the big ship back. More than a dozen soldiers came out of the woods on the island. The moment the leader saw Dongzi, a trace of shock flashed in his eyes. Even Dongzi was a little surprised after seeing it!
But he didn't ask, instead pretending not to know them, and counted the number of people one by one. After confirming that the number of people was the same as the ones they handed over, he took them up the mountain!
Tong Wenyao also remembered who the leader was. He was from the Xionghu Gang! But Hua Wu came to the south with a lot of money back then. How could he end up here and become someone's private king?
Seeing that other people are respectful to Hua Wu, it can be seen that his status here is quite high!
Before leaving, Hua Wu asked for Dong Zi, and after walking a few steps, he turned back to ask for them again. Their general, wearing a mask, looked down at the crowd.
Hua Wu chose a young man with a fair complexion, and with a lewd smile in his eyes, he said, "It's rare that you find one you like, so take him away!"
Hua Wu bowed and said, "Thank you, General."
The houses here are all built with large stones. After arriving at Huawu's territory, Dongzi started to ask. He had lived with the people of Xionghu Village for a period of time before, so he was quite familiar with them.
Hua Wu's house has one bedroom and one living room. After arriving at the living room, he first looked to see if there was anyone outside. Then he asked his brothers to guard the door while he talked to others.
After the door closed, the room instantly darkened. Fortunately, Hua Wu had been prepared. After lighting the candle, he asked, "Why did you come to the south?"
Dongzi glanced at the boss and said nothing. Although Hua Wu asked Dongzi, his eyes were looking at Tong Wen Yao!
She said, "Come over here to do something!"
Hua Wu was a little surprised. Hearing the familiar voice, he asked with confusion, "You...are you the boss of Tiger Village?"
Tong Wenyao nodded and said, "Exactly!"
After hearing this, Hua Wu immediately knelt down in front of her in front of everyone present.
"Thank you, Boss, for giving us the silver back then. This is what allowed so many of us brothers to survive to this day!"
She quickly helped Hua Wu up and said, "Hurry up, it was just a small favor back then! You don't have to be so kind to me!"
Hua Wu shook his head and said, "I was too confident at the beginning. I thought that I could let the brothers live a good life by taking them away. I didn't expect that as soon as we left Cangzhou and took a boat to Dongsuizhou, an epidemic broke out in the city. We brothers didn't dare to go into the city and could only buy food from village to village. If it weren't for the silver you gave us, I'm afraid the brothers would not have survived the epidemic!"
Hua Wu's eyes were filled with regret, tears welling up in his eyes as he continued, "Later, I heard that the plague moved north and was dealt with in Yuguan County. When I heard the news, the first person I thought of was you!" His voice was hoarse, and he smiled helplessly, "If I hadn't taken the brothers away at that time, wouldn't any of them have died from the plague?"
Dongzi didn't know what to think after listening to this. When Tiger Village and Bear Tiger Village merged, Hua Wu was still a man full of vigor and vitality, but now he looked a little decadent, and even regretted his original impulsiveness and led the brothers to the south, which led to their infection with the plague. At that time, they took away 25 people, and now there are only 14 left.
After hearing this, she said, "Hua Wu, you don't have to feel guilty. None of us expected that there would be an epidemic in the south. If there hadn't been an epidemic, do you think you could have given your brothers a good life?"
After hearing this, Hua Wu said, "I can!" She smiled, and Hua Wu seemed to understand, and then she suppressed her sad mood.
Perhaps because he had just vented his anger, Hua Wu smiled and asked about their recent situation. Only then did Dong Zi ease the atmosphere.
Dongzi said, "We've been away from Tiger Village for a long time. The inn at the foot of the mountain is called Guiyan Tower. Oh my god, you don't know how crowded it is now. We have to accommodate hundreds of people every day. We went to see my uncle, and he said that he would expand the inn this year. When we left, he had already started looking for people to dig up the mountain next to it."
