After putting her daughter to sleep, the next step is to get down to business.
Mingxi fixed the warning range of Guardian 1 in his own yard, and then controlled Guardian 2 to fly to Zhao's pig pen.
It was late at night, and no one in the village had lights on, but the stars were bright enough, and everything was clearly visible overlooking the mountains and rivers.
Ergou was kept in the Zhao family's pigsty. As one of the few wealthy households in the village, the Zhao family raised four or five pigs. The pigsty was kept very clean, so it was not an injustice to Ergou if it was used to temporarily imprison Ergou.
Through the electronic eyes of Guardian 2, Mingxi saw a few fat black pigs, but not Ergou.
What's going on?
The pigsty was a square shack with no dead ends. Mingxi zoomed in on the picture and looked carefully again, and found a rope broken in two next to a pillar.
The two dogs escaped? Who cut the rope for him?
Mingxi was slightly startled, she didn't quite understand...
Does it make sense to run away? Even if he could escape tonight, he would have to return to the village sooner or later, and he would be arrested by Li Zheng and taught a lesson. Could it be that Er Gou wanted to wait until Uncle Zhao was relieved before coming back?
Mingxi couldn't understand the brain circuits of these gangsters, and thought that since the people were gone, they should wait until they appeared before dealing with them.
She was about to let Guardian 2 fly back when she suddenly heard a low voice of abuse.
"When you call him, you are giving him face. He really thinks of himself as a person! What the hell...you actually dare to tie me up, bah!... Damn, those pigs are going to kill me..."
Mingxi searched around and found two wretched figures under the wall outside the pigsty, one of whom was Ergou.
The other man was short and thin, with a pointed monkey-like face, and he looked familiar to Mingxi.
Today, when the gong was being played in the village for a meeting, this man was also standing in the crowd. Unexpectedly, he was in the same group as Ergou.
The monkey-faced dwarf was nervous and said in a low voice: "What should we do now? Tomorrow Li Zheng will definitely go to Hexia Village to trouble Brother Tie..."
Ergou immediately rolled his eyes, "Brother Tie is afraid of him?! Humph, when have you ever seen Brother Tie get scared? This old guy Zhao Youren can only show off his prestige in the village. When he gets to Hexia Village, do you think he dares?" Dare to fart!"
The dwarf advised: "Please keep your voice down. If Zhao Lizheng can't get Brother Tie, why can't he get you? Unless you never return to the village again..."
Ergou's face stiffened, he snorted angrily, and walked away.
"Where are you going?" Chapo chased after you and asked, "If the police find out that you ran away, they will definitely have to catch you and bring you back."
"Go to Mazi's house and spend the night first." Ergou said irritably, "I can't spend the night in the pigsty anyway."
The short man nodded repeatedly behind him, "Okay, let's go to Mazi's house and give Brother Tie a message by the way."
Mingxi thought to herself, isn't this a coincidence? She was just trying to catch them all.
Mingxi controlled Guardian 2 and followed behind the two of them. The gentle buzzing of the spiral blades was cleverly obscured by the night wind.
Ergou and Chaozi walked along the river bank and walked out of the village.
There is a wooden suspension bridge not far ahead, and the other end of the bridge is the boundary of Hexia Village.
As the short man walked, he looked back uneasily and said to Ergou: "Why do I feel like someone is following us... I feel a little confused."
Ergou sneered, "Who is following you? Is it the water ghost in the river or that woman from the Ming family?"
When he said this, the short man became more panicked and quickened his pace to follow Ergou, "That woman is indeed quite evil. You have seen her before. She is looking for death and survival all day long. Now she seems to be a different person. People in the village say she is She was enlightened by the gods, why do I think she was hit by a ghost... Hey, is it windy? I, I, I, the back of my neck seems to be chilly..."
The dwarf couldn't help but hug Ergou's arm.
"Stay away from me, I smell bad." Ergou pushed him in disgust.
The dwarf was angry, "I don't think you smell like pig manure yet!"
The two of them cursed as they walked, which dispelled some of the scary atmosphere of walking at night, and they didn't notice the shadow of a bird in the sky following them all the way...
…………
Like Heshang Village, every household in Hexia Village turned off the lights.
There is no night life in the farmhouse, and they are not willing to waste oil to light lamps. As for such good things as candles, only rich families are willing to use them.
Ming Xi was just wondering which house they were talking about as Mazi's house, when he noticed that there was an out-of-place house in front of him, with a weak light on.
Ergou and Chaozi obviously noticed it too. They walked toward the house in a familiar manner. They were still a little far away, and they began to shout at the top of their voices: "Mazi! Open the door!"
There is really no sense of ethics and no fear of waking others up.
The door itself was ajar, and someone pushed it open from the inside and asked, "Why are you two here?"
The dwarf was the first to gloat: "Er Gouzi was caught by the village leader in our village! If I hadn't rescued him in the middle of the night, he would have slept with the old sow in his arms tonight!"
"Hahahahaha! You shouldn't have saved him and ruined Master Gou's marriage!"
"No wonder Ergou looks so ugly. Ouch! Ergouzi, is it that Zhao Lizheng's old sow doesn't suit you? Hahahahaha!"
The taunts came one after another, and it was clear that there was more than one person in the room.
"Fuck you mother!" Ergouzi cursed and entered the room, "You have time to laugh at me here, why not think about what you will do tomorrow when Zhao Youren comes looking for trouble!"
"Hey! You Li Zheng in Heshang Village have nothing to do with the people in Hexia Village!"
"Er Gou, that old man Zhao in your village is really a meddling in other people's business. Look at the old man Li in our village. He has never done so much..."
"Why bother talking so much? Find an opportunity to beat the old man up. He will behave after you know it hurts."
"Just brag, I'm an upright person! I'm so anxious that I can't end it!"
"Coward!"
The sound in the room was very chaotic, with human voices mixed with the sound of rolling dice.
Mingxi adjusted the flight height of Guardian 2 and slowly came to the window. Through the open window, he finally saw the situation inside the house clearly——
It turned out that a group of people gathered in the house to gamble.
The atmosphere in Hexia Village seems not to be right.
Moreover, judging from the arrogance and domineering words of these people, even if Zhao Lizheng comes tomorrow, it will be difficult for him to take advantage. There is no use in reasoning when dealing with such ruffians.
Ming Xi looked up at the night, then took out the stun gun and weighed it in his hand.
One night should be enough to deal with them, but it's a pity that I didn't see where Brother Tie they mentioned was, otherwise I would have caught them all in one go.
Ming Xi sighed, stood up with a stun gun, and set off towards Hexia Village.
