Chapter 614: Never Talk Nonsense when You Can Take Action

The nimble ones among the group had already climbed up the tree. The rest looked around but couldn't find a place to hide, so they just lay down in the high grass.

"Ahhh!"

More than 20 people acted at the same time and scared the crows resting in the woods. They all flew out of the woods screaming.

"Quick, there are people in the woods."

Zheng Dagui watched a group of crows fly out of the woods, waved his hand and gave an order, and led his men to rush in first.

The torches illuminated the woods. The grain thieves hiding in the grass were obvious targets. Their faces were hidden, but their butts were sticking out and could not hide under the torches.

"Who? Who's there?"

Zheng Dagui shouted with the power to swallow the world and drown the mountains and rivers. The people hiding in the tree panicked and two more fell down. The villagers raised torches, and the remaining few could not hide.

"Okay! So many people come to my village to steal food?" Zheng Dagui was so angry that he squeezed out a sentence from his teeth. The light of the torch jumped, making his face look gloomy and terrible, as if there would be a storm at any time. "Captain Zheng, we can't survive. The adults can bear it, but the children can't bear it and are almost starving to death. Please let us go!" Since they were caught, this group of people began to act pitiful. They were all from the first team, including Li Xiuqin's two brothers. They didn't dare to show their faces, hiding behind and lowering their heads, trying to reduce their presence. But they didn't want to be discovered, and the people of a village pushed the two people out. "Li Daniu, Li Erzhu, please beg your relatives to raise your hands once. You can write an IOU for the food you took today and return it to our village tomorrow when the autumn harvest comes." Li Daniu and Li Erzhu were pushed in front of Zheng Dagui with sad faces by the villagers. Others didn't know, but they knew in their hearts that this matter would become a big deal today. "Okay! It's not enough that your sister is selling from my house to yours, you two are also stealing. You are all greedy. No wonder you are born of the same mother with bad intentions. What else can you do besides stealing?"

Gao Guilan saw that it was these two guys and immediately started to curse them without any hesitation. She cursed them and vented her anger towards Li Xiuqin on them.

"Tie up these people. Didn't they steal grain? Throw them into the granary and let them reflect for a night. Send them to the commune tomorrow."

Zheng Dagui had no intention of showing mercy. He originally wanted to drive these people away, but he changed his mind after seeing the Li brothers.

The eldest daughter-in-law was provoked by her family to embarrass herself in the commune, and she had to get it back.

These people wailed and begged for mercy, and then they remembered that the Li and Zheng families were no longer relatives.

"You killed them."

Well, a large group of villagers hated these two brothers. Zheng Dagui sent a few people to force them to the granary, and the rest continued to search.

The two brothers Zheng Chengbao and Zheng Chenghu led people to search the riverside. The people hiding in the cornfield were very anxious. Seeing the light of the torches getting closer and closer, their hearts were in their throats.

"What should we do? Run or not?"

A group of people gathered around the leading man and asked in a low voice. At this time, he was lying in the gap of the cornfield and looking out. His expression was more nervous than those behind him.

"Run! Sanmao Donkey is not a thing. If he comes, we will be in trouble."

When he saw clearly that the leader was Zheng Chengbao, fear flashed in his eyes. Zheng Chengbao was famous in the whole commune for his ability to take action without nonsense. Wouldn't they be beaten to death for stealing corn?

"What should we do with this woman?"
