"We need to find outside help."
Old Zhou immediately realized what was going on.
"Quick, do you know how to drive a three-wheeled vehicle? Oh dear, where's Xiao Zhang?"
Old Zhou was in a hurry to find the tricycle keys.
“I have a bicycle, I’ll go report it to the police.”
The young man knew the situation was serious, so he immediately ran back to the fishpond to find his bicycle.
Xiao Zhang hurried downstairs. Old Zhou was leading a group to observe the situation in the chicken farm. Upon hearing the sound, his eyes lit up.
"Xiao Zhang, hurry up and find them. Your car is fast. Lao Yang and the others have been kidnapped. The people inside have also brought gunpowder. There are thirty-seven of them, and some of them may be enemy agents."
"What!"
Xiao Zhang was startled. Gunpowder! Wait, how could there be enemy agents? When did enemy agents start causing trouble so openly?
Xiao Zhang didn't dare to delay, so he drove as fast as he could and soon caught up with and overtook the young man on the bicycle.
Without daring to stop for even a moment, Xiao Zhang headed towards the nearest police station.
Old Zhou sent someone to explain the situation to the people who had gone up the mountain to work and were coming down; if they rushed in now, they would only be throwing their lives away.
After tying people up at the chicken farm, everyone stared longingly at the chickens that were about to be sold, their eyes filled with greed.
"This chicken is eating so well!"
Someone noticed the feed in the chicken trough and spoke with an extremely sarcastic tone.
"Wow, that chicken is so fat! One chicken is enough for several meals."
Everyone's eyes were on the chickens in the coop, thinking about how to take them away. They didn't notice that someone was secretly preparing gunpowder, clearly not intending to let these people get away unscathed.
Someone saw the burlap sack, someone found a rope, and they reached in and grabbed the chickens out of the coop.
"There are so many! Even if we each catch ten, we still won't be able to catch them all, let alone twenty."
Old Yang felt he couldn't move his waist. After being tied up, he fainted from the pain. The people who tried to help him were beaten up.
Old Zhou gritted his teeth angrily; these people were too despicable.
"Old Zhou, we only have two homemade guns, and there are so many of us. Old Yang seems to be in serious condition."
Yang Yufen had already arrived with her people. The people inside seemed to know that there were people surrounding them outside, and their gazes even provocatively searched for Lao Zhou and the others.
"Can we turn them to our side? It's impossible for them all to be of one mind."
Aunt Wang watched for a while before suddenly speaking.
“I’ll go distract them. These people are really greedy, but it won’t be easy to escape with a bunch of live chickens. Give me a homemade gun.”
Yang Yufen stepped forward.
"No, it's too dangerous, I'll go."
Old Zhou quickly spoke up.
“What’s there to argue about? If I go there, they might be a little less vigilant. You said you have gunpowder, but maybe they have homemade guns too. I was the Iron Lady of the commune back in the day, and I’ve fired a gun before.”
Yang Yufen took the gun and left. The chicken coop actually had doors on both sides, but Yang Yufen didn't go the long way around.
“Hey you inside, I don’t know why you’ve come here to cause trouble. I’m the person in charge here. If you’re willing to release the person, I can take you to get the money. Didn’t you come all this way just to make money?”
"You old hag, you think you can just say whatever you want? Hey, there are even more people coming to our door. If we have one more hostage, even if the government officials come, they won't dare to lay a hand on us."
"Why do we have to go against government officials?"
Some people felt something was off about what he said.
“Now the government officials are protecting these people. So many chickens, how much money could they be exchanged for? Where did all that money go? It went into the pockets of those protecting them. We suffered so much in the past few years, and now all sorts of reforms are said to be for the benefit of ordinary people, but when children are forced to go to school, it's still our ordinary people who have to pay for it themselves.”
