Wen Shu pondered secretly in her heart and had some guesses about what was happening before her eyes. She knew that this was not the time to waste time to delve into it.

Without hesitation, she waved her hands and shouted to the people beside her: "Quick! Tie this guy up and take him to the village!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she pointed at the middle-aged man, turned to Jueyu and said, "I'll leave this man in your care. You must personally take him back to the clan's dungeon, without any mistakes!"

After finishing the explanation, Wen Shu's gaze turned and she happened to catch a glimpse of the hunchbacked man who had seemed quite confident before and who had gained the middle-aged man's immense trust.

At this moment, the man's shoulders collapsed like a deflated ball, his head lowered, and no one knew what he was thinking.

So, Wen Shu opened her mouth again and ordered, "Take him away too! Don't leave anyone behind!"

Hearing this, Jueyu quickly responded, "Yes, girl, don't worry!"

Then she waved her hand to signal the people behind her who were brought from the village to come forward together.

In the blink of an eye, the group acted quickly, tied up the two men tightly in no time, and took them away together like chickens.

With the two leaders being dealt with so cleanly and efficiently, the remaining people who remained on the spot seemed to have lost their backbone in an instant. They were all stunned and completely stopped moving or making any sound.

Not far away were several companions lying motionless. The situation was stronger than the people. Moreover, most of these people had come together halfway to survive.

Without the leader, the morale of the people who had temporarily gathered together also dispersed. Besides, the boss was not so important that they had to risk their lives for him.

Walking to Xuanyi's side, Wenshu looked at the more than 40 people gathered together. The oldest of them looked to be in their forties or fifties, and the youngest was no more than twelve or thirteen years old.

Seeing Wen Shu walking towards them, the group of people huddled together, fearing that the girl would attack them the next moment.

Wen Shu glanced at it indifferently and looked away the next moment. It was not for any other reason, but because many people here did not even have the decency to cover up their shame.

I don’t know if it was because they were surrounded before, but in their haste to escape, the leaves and weeds tied around their waists had already fallen off.

"Master, what should we do with these people?" Xuan Yi had already seen Wen Shudao, and immediately stepped forward when he saw her coming.

"Chief, these people are not good people. They are very cruel. In my opinion, it is better to deal with the matter on the spot to avoid causing other troubles later." The speaker was Du Sheng who came up the mountain with him.

His tone was matter-of-fact, as if killing was the most normal thing.

He didn't lower his voice deliberately, and everyone present heard it.

After hearing this, they were completely upset. They thought that after these people caught them, they would at most force them to do some hard labor. As long as they didn't die, there would always be hope for the future.

The land they were standing on had changed owners several times in just a few years, and there was no telling when chaos would break out again. They could take the opportunity to escape and find another way to survive.

But who would have thought that this kid, who appeared out of nowhere, would always want them to die, as if he was not going to leave them any chance of survival.

This is not something a human being, let alone a kind-hearted person, would say. Even the King of Hell wouldn't be so casual when drawing the book of life and death.

Immediately, one person could no longer sit still and crawled forward to beg for mercy, "Please, sirs, give us a way out.

We are not bad people. We followed Li the thief in order to seek a chance to survive."

After saying this, the man kept kowtowing to Xuan Yi and Wen Shu who were standing there.

The others behind him followed suit, fearing that the next moment this group of knife-wielding killers would swing their swords and kill them in this desolate mountain and wilderness.

The young lady just now took down their leader with one move, but this man and the leading girl have not made a move yet.

If they really stopped that person, they would be killed on the spot. It wouldn't be a big deal for them, and it would eliminate the hidden danger, and they wouldn't have to waste food to feed dozens of people.

Wen Shu looked at Du Sheng and shook her head helplessly, "Brother Sheng, this matter needs to be carefully considered. Killing someone is easy.

However, I will stay and take a look at these people. If they are useful, wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could use them for our Du family?”

"That's right, that's what this girl said"

"The girl is kind-hearted"

"We don't have much to eat, so it's fine if you stay and I help you with the work. It's free labor!"

"Yeah……"

Everyone agreed and looked at Wen Shu with anticipation, hoping to make a living under her.

Du Sheng was just a hot-blooded young man after all. When this group of people suddenly broke into their village, the simplest and clearest way for him was to solve the problem directly.

The elders of the clan had always handled things this way before, so they didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

But now that the tribe has a patriarch in charge, we should obey the patriarch's arrangements.

Hearing the patriarch's words, he said awkwardly, "Hey, patriarch, don't blame me.

I was in a hurry and spoke too quickly."

Looking at Du Sheng, Wen Shu did not blame him, but nodded and said, "Brother, you are also thinking about the safety of the clan, and you are not wrong.

But the method is not appropriate."

After saying this, Wen Shu looked at the group of people whose hands were being bound and said, "The situation in the tribe is different now, and the situation outside is also changing rapidly.

Regarding this matter, we will discuss it with the elders of the clan after we return."

"The clan leader's decision must make sense."

The people who listened to their conversation finally felt relieved. They had not expected that this young girl was the one in charge here.

Since the girl said so, although I don’t know what the so-called "discussion among the elders" means, I don’t know the result of the discussion either.

At least their lives are not in danger now.

Wen Shu saw that everyone in the group had tied their hands and feet behind their backs, and pointed at a few people lying silently in the distance.

"Let's bury those people on the spot." Thinking that it is the hottest time of the year, there are mountains upon mountains here, and there are many ferocious beasts.

Pointing at Du Sheng, he ordered, "Brother, it's hot now, and it's not far from our village. If we bury it too shallow, it will attract wild animals within a day.

The village will not be at peace then, please bury these deeply."

"Chief, don't worry about this matter. I will take care of it and there will be no problem." Du Sheng patted his chest and made a promise.

"With my clan brother checking in, Wenshu is naturally relieved."

After Wen Shu finished giving the order, she waved to Xuan Yi and the others and shouted, "Let's go, send the people back to the village first."

The place is large and has a special area for detaining people.

If we bring dozens of people back to the village now, who knows what kind of chaos might happen.

What's more, if this group of people had other ideas or accidentally escaped, there were still so many women, children, and the elderly in the Du family, and she had to consider it.
