"Snap"
The long whip hit the younger brother, and a blood mark immediately appeared on his thin chest.
He was a child after all. Even though he still refused to speak after being whipped, his eyes were red.
The most taboo thing in Heifeng Village is having ulterior motives, so the brothers who were forcing a confession raised their arms and whipped them again.
Uncle He was so anxious when he saw this that tears were about to fall. He babbled and wished he could suffer for him.
Judging from his anxious look, his relationship with my younger brother must be more than just being from the same village.
Military Advisor Yuan stood four or five meters away from the two men. When he saw Su Man coming, he pointed outside.
Not far away
"I wonder why Military Advisor Yuan has summoned me here?"
Military Advisor Yuan didn't play Tai Chi with Su Man this time and said bluntly, "You already knew there was a traitor in Black Wind Village."
It's not a question, it's an affirmation.
"I don't know what the military advisor means."
Su Man took so much trouble to disguise herself, but when she saw that her goal was about to be achieved, she refused to admit it.
Military Advisor Yuan looked at Su Man's confused expression coldly, feeling powerless as if his fist was hitting cotton.
He really couldn't see through Su Man, and couldn't even see what she wanted to do.
Just like today, she obviously knew that there was a traitor in Black Wind Village and deliberately made such a scene. If she was loyal to Black Wind Village, then how did she know that there was a traitor in Black Wind Village?
Military Advisor Yuan's eyebrows gradually lowered, and his originally gentle and peaceful face became a little gloomy.
During the stalemate, a roar attracted the attention of both men.
"Well--"
Turning around, I saw that the voice was actually from Uncle He. He was struggling desperately towards my younger brother, as if he was expressing something.
At this moment, the little brother's body was covered with whip marks, and his head was tilted, and it was unclear whether he was knocked unconscious or fainted from the pain.
Seeing this, Yuan's military advisor gave a wink and Uncle He was released.
The moment he regained his freedom, he rushed towards his younger brother, holding his younger brother's head with his hands and shaking him.
Looking at his unconscious younger brother, Uncle He was so anxious that he turned around and knelt down in front of Military Advisor Yuan.
Uncle He clasped his hands together and waved them continuously, with a pleading look on his face.
Military Advisor Yuan seemed to have anticipated this result and asked his brothers to bring paper and pen.
Uncle He looked up at Military Advisor Yuan, then looked at his younger brother, closed his eyes, and lowered his head in sorrow.
A moment later, a piece of paper covered with words was presented.
The more Military Advisor Yuan read, the tighter his brows furrowed. When he finished reading, Lao He was already kneeling on the ground. He raised his head and looked at Military Advisor Yuan with eyes full of expectation.
"Although I am the military advisor, this kind of important matter must be handed over to the village chief. But I promise you that I will do my best to save little brother He's life."
what...
Hearing this surname, Su Man subconsciously glanced at Uncle He. After hearing what Yuan Military Advisor said, his eyes dimmed, but he still knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Yuan Military Advisor.
Yuan's military advisor ordered someone to take the unconscious younger brother away for treatment, and Uncle He was tied up again.
Su Man wanted to know what he wrote, and seeing Yuan Junshi about to leave, she followed him.
"Military Advisor, why did Uncle He betray Black Wind Village?"
Military Advisor Yuan stopped, his eyes instantly sharpening, "Madam, are you interested in this?"
Su Man paused for a moment, then sighed, "Not really. It's just that Aunt Wei has been restless ever since she found out about Uncle He and my younger brother. Aunt Wei has been taking good care of me, and I thought if I knew the reason, I could go back and tell Aunt Wei so she wouldn't worry about it."
Military Advisor Yuan knew that these were all Su Man's words, but he couldn't expose her. Thinking that Su Man would be of great help in catching the traitor, he handed Lao He's confession to Su Man.
I took it and saw that it was half a page filled with dense writing.
Lao He and I do have a very close relationship; we are father and son.
As for why they had kept their relationship a secret, it was because when they were on the road fleeing famine, they had no food to eat and couldn't survive, so Old He thought of finding a wealthy family to entrust He Xiaodi to. He said he was father and son, but he was afraid that people would think that he was a burden because he had an old father, so he simply said that they were from the same village.
But life was so hard during the famine years that even the landlords had no surplus food, so who would be willing to raise a half-grown child?
In this way, Lao He dragged his younger brother around and came to Heifengzhai, where he joined the gang.
Although the Black Wind Village has a bad reputation, the brothers are kind and friendly. With the care of Wei Ma, Lao He also accepted his fate.
But as I get older, some things have gradually changed.
I didn't want to be a bandit all my life, and I didn't want to be trapped in this mountain, so I became more and more taciturn.
On his birthday, Wei Ma gave Uncle He a hundred dollars and asked him to take his younger brother down the mountain for a walk.
After seeing the prosperity at the foot of the mountain and the carefree peers, I actually blamed Uncle He for coming to Black Wind Village that day.
It just so happened that the younger brother was so attached to the comfort of the mountain that he didn't want to go back, and was caught by patrolling officers and soldiers. They couldn't produce their household registration and had no family members, so they were taken to Fang Junyi as bandits.
Originally, he wanted to execute him directly like other criminals suspected of being bandits. However, a sentence the younger brother shouted before he was taken away made Fang Junyi change his mind.
He said, if I had known this would happen, I would have starved to death rather than followed you to Black Wind Village.
After understanding the whole story, Fang Junyi promised Uncle He that he would let them go as long as he could act as a traitor.
Not only that, he can also help He Xiaodi to re-register his household registration, so that he can escape from Heifengzhai and start a new life.
Although Uncle He didn't want to betray Black Wind Village, his younger brother was still young. If it meant he could live a normal life, he was willing to give everything.
In this way, Uncle He became Fang Junyi's spy.
...
At the end of his confession, Lao He begged Military Advisor Yuan to let him go and said he was willing to accept any punishment.
