Chapter 167 Greedy Ling Da
When Ling Da saw his father getting angry, he didn't say anything, but there was still some resentment in his eyes.
Since you are leaving anyway, why not make some more money? Is it too hot to handle a little more money?
The second half of the night passed peacefully. When daybreak came, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Don't let your guard down. We still have enough water. We won't have breakfast here. We can eat the dry food we had on the way. Hurry up and pack your luggage and leave."
Zheng Da whispered, and personally took his men to sit outside the house.
Wang Fugui and others accompanied them to harness the carriage. Su He and others were not idle either. Half of them helped to load the luggage, and the other half waited beside Zheng Da and his group.
"Captain Zheng, why are you leaving so early? I asked the child's mother to make some breakfast. You can eat something before you leave."
Village Chief Ling invited enthusiastically.
"Haha, thank you for your kindness, village chief. It's just that our schedule is quite tight, so we just need to eat some dry food on the way."
The two exchanged pleasantries, one pretending to try to keep him while the other genuinely wanted to leave, but they both actually had the same idea.
This time we just have to wait for the people in the stable to harness the carriages and come out one by one.
That's when the unexpected happened.
The twenty or so people left in the yard only heard a scream from the stable, and then Wang Laowu ran over.
"Lotus, they took our horses and three mules."
Su He and Zheng Da looked at each other, both of them couldn't believe it. This was too arrogant of him. He actually robbed in broad daylight. Even if Zheng Da wanted to fool him, there was no way he could do it.
"Village Chief, what do you mean by this?"
Village chief Ling cursed his son in his heart for being disobedient and for being too naive.
"It's a misunderstanding. It must be a misunderstanding. I'll go check it out."
Village Chief Ling wiped the sweat from his forehead and ran quickly towards the stable.
The atmosphere in the stable was indeed not very good. Ling Da, with a dozen strong men, looked at Wang Fugui and others fiercely, "I advise you to be sensible. If you still want to live, get out of here quickly. The horse belongs to us. Leave three more mule carts."
As soon as Village Chief Ling ran over, he heard what his son with a negative IQ said. He was so angry that tears came out.
"What are you talking about, you beast? We are decent people, why don't we return the horses to them? Lao Er, Tiedan, you two should go back quickly."
The strong men at the back hesitated. They looked at Ling Da and then at Village Chief Ling, not knowing who to listen to.
"Don't listen to my father. After the New Year, I will be the village chief. Second brother, go and drive their mule cart over here."
Ling Da no longer listened to his father and ordered his brother to rob the carriage. He had been eyeing these mules and carriages for a long time. His father was a coward. What was there to be afraid of if they were all going to run away? Last week, all the mules ran away because of the earthquake. This time, he was going to catch them.
Wang Fugui and others were so angry that they laughed. They didn't want to cause trouble, but these people were pressing them step by step, and they would not back down. If they backed down, their families behind them would suffer.
The young and strong ones came forward with hoes and kitchen knives, while the old and young retreated to the back and got into the carriages, waiting for the opportunity to escape from the village when the situation became unfavorable for them.
Zheng Da and the people from the escort agency also stood in the front, and the two groups were about to fight.
"You beast, what a shitty village chief you are. I have the final say in this village, why don't you take your people and get out of here."
Village Chief Ling roared at the people in his village with red eyes.
"Tiedan, call more people. These mule carts and cows are all ours. They also have a lot of food, enough for us to eat for a long time."
Tiedan hesitated for a while, but turned around and called for help. Village Chief Ling couldn't stop him.
Su He watched coldly. The village chief's house was the largest. They were located in the middle of the village. In addition to the 75 people from Tianyuan Village, there were Ling Da with 13 strong men and the village chief's family.
At this time, everyone else in the village chief's house was hiding in the house, so Su He simply took out a lock and asked Liu Bai to lock it. The windows were also sealed.
Now the situation in the house was very good before the villagers came to help.
"Xiaobai, are you confident? Let's take them all down before the people from the village come."
"These dozen or so are no problem, but there are still many people in the village."
"It doesn't matter. Let's control the people in this room first. I can take care of the others."
Liu Bai nodded, rushed to the stable and kicked Ling Da, and a big battle began.
Su He closed and locked the door, then walked back from the kitchen, pretending to find a ladder, and took out a telescope to look around. Hmm, a group of people were coming this way from a distance.
Eh? Su He looked in the direction they came from. It seemed that someone was coming. The person in the front seemed to be riding a horse. Was he from the government?
Su He's mind began to spin rapidly again. Was it possible that the previous batch of people had not all died and escaped back to Su'an to report the case?
Su He ran to the stable quickly. At this time, the Ling family members, including the village chief, had been tied up.
"Tell me, where did the person who stayed here last week go?"
Su He stared at the group of people kneeling on the ground.
"I don't understand what you are saying. Please let us go. Tiedan has already gone to call for help. You better be smart."
Ling Da was still being stubborn. The Ling family members behind him did not panic even though they were kidnapped. It was obvious that they thought the same.
Su He turned to tell her family and Zheng Da about the government officials coming. Time was running out, and if they wanted to gain some benefits, they had to do so before the government officials came, otherwise their property would definitely be confiscated.
Liu Bai obviously heard it too, and dragged Ling Da to the village chief, "Where are the people and the things?"
Village Chief Ling refused to say anything. Liu Bai sneered and grabbed Ling Da's arm and broke it with his backhand. Ling Da screamed a few times and fainted from the pain soon after. His fighting ability was indeed average.
"If you don't tell me, his left arm and leg will be useless."
Village Chief Ling's eyes dodged and his mouth trembled, "I really don't know. The group of people last week stayed for one night and then left."
Liu Bai sneered and prepared to break Ling Da's left arm, "Wait."
Everyone looked at Su He in surprise, "Doesn't he have a son? Let's take the two brothers together. The older brother is the right arm, and the younger brother will follow."
Liu Bai did as he was told immediately. This made Village Chief Ling anxious. As soon as Ling Lao Er came up to him, he confessed, "The things are all stored in my room. If you let us go, I will tell you where they are."
Liu Bai directly broke Ling Laoer's left arm. Ling Laoer was braver than his brother. Even though he was sweating from the pain, he did not faint. However, Village Chief Ling was crying so hard that his tears and snot were running.
"Don't touch my oldest son, they are all in the back mountain. Please help our second oldest son to release the gun."
"Ling Feng, you bastard, you already knew that the eldest son is not your biological son. No wonder you ignored him since he was a child. Tell them to let the eldest son go too!"
