These people that barged into the Ye Family's mansion could be said to have come with no good intentions. With Er Pang as the leader, they were very aggressive.

In the past few days, he could still come over and give Ye Ying some face, but now, with this attitude, he wanted to tear off all decorum, and disregarded the obstruction of the grain storehouse helper to barge into Ye Ying's house.

Ye Ying's heart sank when she saw the person. She was not afraid of Er Pang, she was just a dog relying on its power, but the people following him were hard to say. Most of them had a new face, and could tell that Er Pang was a leader with a few lackeys, the unknown people behind him were the main focus.

She gave Shen Huanzhi a meaningful glance and took the lead to walk out. Shen Huanzhi seemed to have understood her hint, he sized up the people around his without batting an eye, they were all expressionless, and were completely different from the lackeys that came to rob and rob the place previously. They looked more like well-trained thugs or soldiers.

As the word "soldiers" flashed through his mind, he suddenly had a bad premonition. No wonder Sir Li was so confident. With such a group of well-trained men supporting him, he could easily rebel.

Ye Ying stood at the center of the courtyard, her face not looking very good, "I say, Er Pang, what do you mean by this? The rent has already been collected, and you still want to come to my house to eat and drink?

Second Fatty was obviously fearless today, as he looked at Ye Ying arrogantly, "Shopkeeper Ye, it's not too kind for there to be someone hiding in the house, it's fine as long as you bring back a man. But how come I heard that there's a woman with a big belly, she can't even hide her wail anymore, when are you planning to report it?"

"Er Pang, it's not like I, Ye Ying, have been in the Quadruple Town for more than a year or two. The child died before he was even born, and didn't even have a chance to report anything. The child was only born two days ago, living or not living is not certain, although I do not lack money, but I am not a fool, I have to wait for the child to recover first before reporting. Furthermore, the money I gave you last time, I also want to find two men to do it.

Ye Ying's glib tongue caused Er Pang to be speechless, but he was clearly not here to cause any commotion either, he snorted coldly, "Shopkeeper Ye is a smart person, you shouldn't hurt your relationship for the sake of someone you don't know, if you know what's good for you, hand him over and we'll go, I'll pass on a message to you, it's impossible for anyone from the dead waters to walk out of the Quadruple Town alive, either follow us or take your life, you choose."

Shen Huanzhi had asked around, and it was true that he had sensed correctly, there was something wrong with the water, and it seemed like he could not be kind today. Just now, Ye Ying had told him that when they were about to make a move, she would bring her people in front and let him take the chance to escape.

Ye Ying raised her eyebrows, "Is it that serious, my man can't even kick his butt, what's there to be afraid of? I can't help but think of a man I might fall in love with, if you say so, I won't mind killing him, how about this, how about this, you name a price, and how much can you spend on him? At most, you can just lock him up in my backyard and not let him leave. I, Ye Ying, promise with my family's business, that nothing will happen, what about it?"

Second Fatty said, "Shopkeeper Ye, it's not that you don't want to give him face, but there's no room for negotiation. It's not like giving money is of any use, do you understand?"

"Then we will have to fight. I, Ye Ying have no other abilities, so I can't allow others to snatch my things." With a wave of her hand, a lot of waiters immediately surrounded them. Usually, none of the waiters from the Ye Family could tell that they were all good people. They just threw away their rice bags and started fighting whenever they wanted.

Seeing that, Shen Huanzhi sneaked out from the back door with An in his arms. He knew it was not right to let a woman block the way, but at the moment, he had to take care of An, not only because he was loyal to her, but also because in Quadruple Town, a woman like Ye Ying was better than him.

There was a carriage waiting outside in advance, so Shen Huanzhi carried An and got on the carriage.

At the same time, Manager Li and Zhao Zhang's side, after a few days of hard work, had finally reached the shore of the water, where the boat couldn't enter. They swam all the way, and in the middle of winter, a group of men on the shore were freezing cold enough.

Only then did Manager Li and the rest confirm that Shen Huanzhi had made it here alive, and that they could swim here to look for him. They were already at ease in their hearts, but Zhao Zhang, a man who had been lucky enough to survive, was still alive, so it would not be easy for their wife to have a big belly. Moreover, no one could be sure if they were together or not.

They had originally thought that by luck, Shen Huanzhi would be able to survive and that they would be able to find him in a small village nearby. However, once they entered the fishing village, all of them were stunned.

There was no one left alive in the village.

It was almost dusk, and the entire fishing village was shrouded in a deathly silence. The house closest to the village entrance had its doors wide open, corpses lying in the courtyard, and the stench of blood was everywhere. It was the same as walking into the village.

Zhao Zhang realized the seriousness of the situation, and began to discuss with Manager Li, "Divide our people into two teams, and search the village separately. If they have come before, they will leave behind traces, and I am afraid this matter is not simple, because the number of people we have to lead is limited.

Fortunately, they had sent a message to their own people before they came. If everything went well, there would be people coming in within two or three days to provide support, and with Gu Yun's mental strength, he was sure that he would bring his people in from the side roads. After which, he would contact the official authorities along the way, and things would become much easier, but he was still far from being able to satisfy his thirst, and hoped that nothing bad would happen in the next two or three days.

The village wasn't big, and it didn't take long for them to search to the end. Heaven never bars one's way, they really did find a survivor.

"Master Zhao, Manager Li is a girl. She found it in the fire. She was a little scared and refused to come out with us."

Zhao Zhang and the Manager Li hurried over, only to find a tattered, small mud hut. The house was scattered with fishing handles, the rice jar was filled to the brim with rice, there were even a few bags of noodles in the corner. Zhao Zhang was suspicious, such a poor person's house did not lack rice noodles.

"Our boss must have been here before." Manager Li said with certainty, "According to his character, if he entered such a shabby village, he would definitely help them. Furthermore, if they just happened to save him and took him in, that would make even more sense."

No matter what, they had to go in first. There were two more corpses in the room, the old couple. The girl was hiding in the firewood, trembling as she looked at them with fear. This little girl was Feng Er.

Since she had food rations at home, her days had become more relaxed, and she was no longer as hungry as she was before. She had been playing crazily for an entire day, and when she returned, it was only in this short period of time. The scene that she saw was exactly the same as what Zhao Zhang and the others had seen, only that the smell of blood had not dispersed by then, and the corpse was still warm.

Zhao Zhang walked over and squatted in front of her, "Little girl, don't be afraid, we aren't bad people. Can you tell me what you saw?"

Feng'er's face was buried in her lap, she was only shaking her head and not speaking. Zhao Zhang asked patiently, "Then let me ask you, if I'm right, you can nod your head, if not you can shake it, okay?"

Seeing her barely visible nod his head, Zhao Zhang continued to speak: "Has anyone from your village come here before? For example, if there's a man around my age who looks very good, or if there's a woman with a big belly? "

Zhao Zhang's face lit up, "Then you tell me, where are they right now? Don't be afraid, we are here to find them, not the bad guys, if you are willing to follow us, then we can eat our fill and be warm. If I'm not wrong, the rice at home is all bought by them, right?"

At this point, Feng Er finally began to sob. She cried for a long time before she finally said, "Big Brother and Big Sis have left. Big Sis is going to have a baby and they are not in good health. They have all gone to the town to seek medical help."

Zhao Zhang and the Manager Li looked at each other, "Little girl, do you know how to get to the town?

You … can you really bring me away? Don't kill me, I don't want to die …

After confirming that Xie Jingxi was still alive, Zhao Zhang's heart was put at ease by half. No matter what, it was better than hearing the news of her death. However, this town was too strange, and they did not know what kind of fate it would be before them. Feng'er was young, but she was very smart. Usually, she would tell everything she heard from the conversations of the villagers to Zhao Zhang and the others.

There was one thing that he could be certain of, and that was that he could not venture into the town recklessly, especially with such a large group of foreigners. thought to himself, there still needed to be a team of two, one team to stay outside to assist, while the other team would have to stay outside to help the Manager Li, so he could only bring his men and infiltrate from other places.

Xie Jingxi had been hiding in the secret cellar for the majority of the day, and hid there fearfully. There were many times when she couldn't help but want to go out and take a look, but when Ye Ying called her from the future, she was not sure about the situation outside and did not dare to go out. The more she hid, the more worried she was.

In the end, she decided to take a gamble. She quietly opened the door of the secret cellar and peeked outside. It was dark outside, but there was no one there.
