The leading monk shouted loudly, "Where are you, you rat, sneaking around here! Come out if you have the guts!"
However, as soon as the monk finished speaking, he felt dizzy.
Just when he was wondering whether he breathed too fast or for some other reason.
Unexpectedly, the children in the team were the first to fall to the ground and fainted.
Seeing the child fainting, these monks immediately felt something bad.
They also have varying degrees of dizziness symptoms. Although they don't know the cause, it is obviously not a good thing if they continue to stay here.
They tried to run away, but many of them fainted after running only two or three steps.
The monk was still calm at that moment. He realized that something was wrong and immediately stopped talking. He just crossed his legs on the spot and then tried to force out the poison.
Unexpectedly, just when he was sitting cross-legged and meditating, a sharp weapon suddenly stabbed in his direction.
The monk was startled, and he quickly dodged away. When he took a closer look, he found that what was attacking him was actually a poisonous arrow with a cold light.
Looking at his companions staggering on the ground, he felt angry in his heart, but he also understood that this was not the time to be angry, so he immediately used his inner strength to fly away the poisonous arrows.
At the same time, he shouted loudly, "Why is Xiaoxiao so sneaky here? If you have the guts, come out and let's compete directly!"
However, just as his voice fell, another cold light flashed, this time a poisonous sword stabbed towards him.
The first monk dodged and avoided the poisonous sword. At the same time, he quickly observed the surrounding environment, trying to find the location of the assassin.
However, the reeds were hidden from inside, and the firelight could not shine on those dirty places. He still could not see the face of the assassin clearly.
He couldn't help but yell angrily, "Kid, is this all you can do? You can't be considered a hero by stabbing people in the back. Even the reincarnation of a mouse can be more upright than a piece of shit like you!"
He was cursing vigorously when another cold light flashed by. This time it was a middle-aged man holding a poisonous knife and slashing at him.
The first monk dodged again and avoided the poisonous knife. At the same time, he quickly retreated, trying to stay away from the assassin's attack range.
However, he had just taken a few steps back when he felt exhausted and unable to lift his breath.
Less than a moment later, the first monk, who was already feeling dizzy, finally passed out.
After he passed out, four other hiding persons emerged from the reeds.
The leader among them, wearing a blue brocade robe, was none other than Lu Zhizhang, who had disappeared just now.
Lu Zhizhang only said to Officer Wu beside him, "Officer Wu, please tie up these people quickly."
When Wu Chaiguan heard what Lu Zhizhang said, he immediately nodded to express his understanding.
Then, at the signal of Officer Wu, they immediately tied up the evil monks.
It was just the children who were held hostage by the evil monk, but Lu Zhizhang asked Officer Wu to rush them to the town.
People in the town originally closed their doors at this time and stopped opening the doors.
However, when Officer Wu knocked on the door of Mipu, Officer Wu immediately said to Mipu, "Boss, open the door! Is this your son?"
Hearing the word son, the owner of the rice shop was somewhat moved, although he felt that his son had been captured by the evil monk and would not be able to come back for a month.
But it is better to believe that it exists than to believe that it does not exist. After that, the rice shop owner quietly opened the window on the second floor. Under the window, a man was holding a skinny child. Although the night was dark and the face was unclear, the rice shop owner only felt that the child’s outline looked real. It looked a bit like his own child, and the man downstairs seemed familiar, so after that, the owner of Mipu opened the door.
When he suddenly saw Wu Chaguan through the lamplight, the owner of the rice shop felt a little surprised.
This time he finally saw the other person clearly, but he didn't expect that this person was actually the merchant who failed to make a deal today.
He took another look at the child in the merchant's arms. He was now very close and glanced at the child.
Isn’t his son the son he just parted from?
The child was unconscious with his eyes closed, as soft as if he had just fallen asleep, and as if he had already died.
The owner of the rice shop was also concerned and confused. He didn't care about anything else. At the moment, he only said loudly, "Why is my child like this?"
The merchant wasn't angry at all. He just explained immediately, "The child is fine. He just smelled some cinnamon and ate some cinnamon."
Hearing this, the owner of Mipu was confused. He still didn't understand how this child was arranged here.
But before the rice shop owner could ask the merchant, the merchant spoke first.
He first gave in half a step, only letting the boss see the other children behind him, and then he said to the rice shop owner, "Boss, look at which families these children are in this town."
Hearing the merchant's words, the owner of the rice shop was shocked again. He immediately took a lantern to look at it. When the firelight shone on the child's face, the owner of the rice shop was obviously startled again: These children are not all from town. Are you the children of those shop owners? Their children were kidnapped in the same batch as their own. If it hadn't been for collecting things this time, they wouldn't even be able to see these children.
On a normal day, these children would have boarded the evil monk's pirate ship early, and then returned to Gu Yue Island where they never saw the light of day.
How could they come back today?
While the rice shop owner was thinking about it, Officer Wu had already said impatiently, "Do you know this kid?"
The owner of the rice shop didn't dare to dodge, he just nodded immediately, "I recognize it! I recognize it! Why don't you recognize them? They are all the children of the nearby shop owner."
When the owner of the rice shop said that he knew the child, Officer Wu immediately threw away the burden and said, "Well, you will deliver this child to each family. There is a fire on the bank not far away, although we have already taken care of it." There is a fire break, but you have to remember to call some people to put out the fire, lest the intensity of the fire changes."
After finishing his words, without waiting for the rice shop owner to say anything else, Wu Chaguan just walked forward with his head down.
When Officer Wu walked away, the owner of the rice shop finally realized what he was doing. He saw the fire was really burning not far away. He immediately got up and headed towards the nearby shop.
"Open the door, Boss Zhang, open the door quickly! I have something to tell you!"
"Boss Liu, open the door quickly and pick up your son!"
The shop owner of Mipu went almost door to door and knocked on the doors of several shops with similar conditions to his own.
Everyone saw their relatives coming back, and naturally they cried and laughed.
It was so exciting at the moment.
Some people also asked the shopkeeper what happened and why his son could come back.
However, the shopkeeper of the rice shop couldn't tell clearly. He just pointed towards the other side, "That's it. Did you see it? There's a fire there!"
After hearing what the shopkeeper said, everyone naturally went to the scene of the fire carrying various fire-fighting tools.
By the time the people from Guyue Town arrived at the scene of the fire, Lu Zhizhang had already pulled this group of strong men on their way to Beijing.
They could only see that the evil monk's ship was almost burned and only a frame could be seen.
When they saw that the evil monk's boat was burned, no one was happy. On the contrary, more people just felt a chill rising from their hearts. They glanced at the lighted boat in the middle of the vast Ancient Moon River with fear. The light, the light seemed like the devil had opened his eyes.
He was watching the betrayal of these ignorant people.
After all, the shopkeeper of Mipu was the first to react.
He swallowed and said, "Oops! We're in trouble!"
After hearing the words of the shopkeeper of Mipu, everyone was still at a loss. In their opinion, the fire on the ship had nothing to do with them.
So everyone just looked at the shopkeeper of Mipu. They seemed to be waiting for the shopkeeper of Mipu to tell the reason.
However, the shopkeeper of Mipu seemed to be frightened away by something.
Seeing his expression, someone finally couldn't help but asked, "Shopkeeper, why are you crying and laughing at the same time! Do you know anything?"
"
The shop owner of Mipu looked like the sky was about to fall. He tapped the back of his hand hard and said, "It's over! It's over! It's all over! Let's pack up and run away overnight!"
"Why are you running away? We didn't burn this ship!" Someone asked in confusion.
The shopkeeper of Mipu looked at the man as if he thought he was ridiculously naive.
"The boat was burned, and those evil monks were nowhere to be seen, but our children were returned. Is there any need to think about this? Someone must have dealt with those evil monks! Although we were not involved, the people on the island were not involved at all. Without knowing this, he will only suspect that we did something! If you haven't run away yet, do you want to wait for the people on the island to come to interrogate you one by one, or to teach you a lesson!" Mipu shopkeeper Shi Yue said The more I felt that this was probably what I thought.
He had no intention of doing anything else at the moment, even though his wife was still on the island. If he runs away, something cruel will happen to his wife.
However, now that the children are back with him, their lifeblood is here. If he doesn't run away now, is he leaving after the entire family is buried here?
Considering this, the shopkeeper of Mipu just immediately went to pack his belongings, hitched up the carriage and wanted to leave immediately.
In the crowd, several other children returned to their homes and made exactly the same choices as the shopkeeper of Mipu.
They have the ability to leave here, but they don't want to stay in this hellish place anymore.
At the same time, there were more people whose relatives were trapped on the island, or who were unable to leave here and were helpless here. This panic only infected everyone present.
The women and children had cried loudly, and the men only showed embarrassed and sad expressions.
Obviously it is a difficult decision to leave the place where I grew up.
However, no matter how difficult the choice was, more people still made the choice. They quietly packed up their belongings and prepared to escape. Some people still had a little illusion.
After all, they don't know how the monk disappeared. They didn't do anything. Maybe those evil monks will let them go.
