Ye Qing jumped out of the car, hid beside it, took the slingshot off his body, and looked into the woods warily.

The others reacted quickly and found places to hide.

Although Ye Xuan's legs and feet were not very flexible, he was able to escape quickly.

Uncle Zhou slowly searched for the other party's location, but the other party was hiding well and he could not find his exact location.

"Brothers on the other side, we are just passing by. Is there any misunderstanding?" Ye Laosan shouted loudly behind the car.

Ye Dalang was a little far away from Ye Qing and wanted to come over, but Ye Qing shook his head to signal his brother not to move.

After waiting for a while, a voice came from the other end. "Leave your things behind and get out."

Although the village head told me when I went out that I should protect myself first and then take care of my belongings.

But they won't give up things until they have no other choice.

"They are all worthless things. Please let me pass. I have some silver here. I will give you a cup of tea."

"Don't talk nonsense, it's about money and life."

Ye Laosan was also a man of blood. He ignored his shouting. There were more than forty people here, and as long as their numbers were not enough, they could not be stopped.

"Brothers, what kind of heroes are you hiding in the dark? Come out and talk."

As Ye Laosan finished his words, the atmosphere around him became tense. Everyone held axes in their hands, ready to start working at any time.

Seeing that this side did not leave directly, more than twenty big men stood out from the woods opposite.

The leader had a scarred face, with a scar running diagonally from the jaw to the eyebrow, dividing the entire face into two halves, making him look very ferocious.

Ye Laosan came out from behind the car, followed by a dozen young men.

"May I ask what your names are?" Ye Lao San spoke first.

"We are the Tiger Head Gang on Huzi Mountain. If you pass through our territory, you have to leave a toll." The scarred younger brother was holding a big knife in his hand and looking at the group of people.

Ye Laosan had heard of bandits before, but had never encountered them.

"What we brought is charcoal, which is not valuable. Please give us some chance to survive, brothers." Ye Lao San said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

The young man with the knife looked at this group of people and was talking nonsense, which was completely different from the ones he had met before. He just threatened them and they ran away.

He stepped forward, raised his arm, and was about to hit Ye Dalang.

Ye Dalang stood at the edge, raised his hand to stop him, blocked his arm, and pushed again. The younger brother was pushed more than a meter away.

"Boss, he hit me, kill them quickly." The younger brother started yelling before he even got up.

Ye Qing seized the opportunity and shot at Scarface's eyes with his slingshot.

When Uncle Zhou saw Ye Qing taking action, he followed closely, drew his bow and shot an arrow at a fat man who was raising a knife to chop Ye Dalang.

My uncle had a very good aim and shot the fat man on the wrist. The pain made him let go of his hand and stamped his feet wailing.

The situation was about to break out, and the two sides soon got entangled in a fight. The young people in the village were well-fed, tall and strong, and there were more of them than the other side. Soon, all the people on the other side were tied to the ground.

"Brother Zhou, how should we deal with it? Will they retaliate against us if we let us go?" Ye Laosan was worried that there would be retaliation against us in the future when there were fewer people around.

Zhou Yi was also worried about this. Both of them didn't know what to do as this was the first time they had encountered such a thing.

Ye Qing walked up to Scarface, took out a dagger from his pocket, and threw it to the ground right next to Scarface's face.

Scarface was so scared that he looked back, but he still kept saying something cruel. "Where did you come from, little girl? Hurry up and let grandpa go, or the people in our village will never let you go."

Ye Qing was not moved at all, "Then don't let them know."

Then he looked at Ye Dalang, "Brother, do we have shovels? How big a hole do you think we need to dig to fit them all in?"

As he spoke, he looked these people up and down. Ye Dalang was a very down-to-earth man. After hearing what his sister said, he really started to gesture and calculate how big the pit should be dug.

"Brother, dig a few more and bury them separately." Ye Qing ignored the bandits.

Ye Dalang called a few people, walked into the woods, and started digging with a grunt.

Scarface and his group saw that Ye Qing didn't look like he was joking, and knew they had met a ruthless person.

"My dear little aunt, I was wrong. I shouldn't have robbed you. If you have anything to say, just ask us and we will tell you."

Ye Qing glanced at them and said, "Ask questions, what questions? You are all going to die, it doesn't matter whether you speak or not."

Ye Laosan and Zhou Yi looked at each other and decided not to intervene and let the children handle it themselves. They knew that Ye Qing was just trying to scare them.

"Ask us, aunt. We will never hide anything."

Ye Dalang and his men were still digging hard there. Scarface's heart was trembling as he watched the pit getting bigger and bigger.

"How many people are there in your village? Where are they from? Of course you don't have to tell me." Ye Qing called someone, picked up a skinny little brother, and put him in the pit to test his size.

Scarface was sweating as he watched. They were buried in the wilderness and no one would know. The people in the village would not report to the police. It would be good enough if they could come down to look for them.

He quickly opened his mouth to talk about what was happening in the village, fearing that if he was too slow, he would be the next one to be released.

"There are more than 30 people in our village. They all committed crimes and hid in the mountains."

“How many people are still on the mountain now?”

"There are only a dozen of us, some of them are older. Auntie, please let us go. We have never done anything against the law. At most, we just threatened to scare people."

"Are there any more bandits nearby?" Ye Qing wanted to know the situation around him.

"No, this place is not very wealthy, not many people come here, we just want to find a meal."

Ye Qing looked down upon such behavior. They were all grown men, and they could not even go without food if they worked hard.

Ye Qing walked over to Ye Lao San and said, "Uncle San, uncle, we'd better go to their village and capture the remaining people. Otherwise, they will be in the dark while we are in the light. It will be very dangerous."

"What should we do if we catch him? Just bury him." Ye Laosan didn't have such courage.

"We can just say that to scare them. If we tie them up and send them to the government office, we might even get a reward."

Uncle San and the eldest uncle were relieved. "Okay, tie them up here first, tie them up a few more times, and I'll take Dalang to their village."

Zhou Yi picked a thin man, tied his hands and took him away.

After taking two steps, Ye Qing called them to stop. He took out a black pill from his bag and fed it to the thin man.

After eating for a while, the man began to feel a burning pain in his stomach and abdomen. He was so scared that he fell to the ground, crying and begging for mercy.

"This is the poison I developed. If you don't take the antidote within one day, you will definitely die. Be good, and I will give you the antidote when you come back." Ye Qing winked at his uncle.

Zhou Yi pulled the man up and strode forward.

The remaining twenty or so men were thrown into the pit and their mouths were gagged.

Zhou Yi took away more than twenty people, leaving more than a dozen people to guard them.
