Wangping Town is built on a hillside. The town gate and the houses under the hillside were submerged, but the houses on the hillside were not damaged. The Xu family is on the top of the hillside.

As Shen Ge followed Xu Yuefeng up the slope, he asked in a low voice how the Xu family had been swept away by the water.

Xu Yuefeng couldn't help but cry again, "On the 21st, it was the town market. Grandma and the others went to the market early in the morning, but they were all washed away by the water."

The big market in Wangping Town is very lively, and people from all over the country come to buy and sell goods. The town market is also a lively place where women and children like to go shopping.

Shen Ge felt very uncomfortable when he saw that almost every house on the hillside was hung with white cloth and white lanterns.

Before reaching the top of the slope, Shen Ge heard Xu Qiankui's scolding, "Who asked you to hang the white cloth? Pull it all down! Your mother and the others were washed away, not dead. If you don't go find someone, why are you crying at home? Sad? Bad luck!"

Xu Yuefeng wiped her tears with a handkerchief, raised her hand to pluck out the white flowers on her hair and hid them in her sleeves, and whispered, "Brother Shen, let's go in quickly."

Xu Yuefeng walked a few steps quickly into the house and shouted in as cheerful a tone as possible, "Ah Weng, who do you think is here?"

Xu Yuefeng's mother, who was hiding in the kitchen, glanced outside and then retracted, her face becoming even more ugly.

Xu Qiankui saw the person clearly with his red eyes and hurriedly greeted him, "It turns out to be you, kid. I knew you were destined to be lucky. You must be fine! How did you get here?"

The eldest son of the Xu family, who was kneeling in the damp yard, saw Shen Ge coming and hurriedly stood up, lowering his head and dusting off the mud on his robe.

Shen Ge raised his hand to catch the big hand that Xu Qiankui had patted down, and said with a smile, "Thank you, I'm thinking about you." When the flood came, my third uncle and I escorted the escort to Haolian Village. A wave capsized the boat, and we climbed up a big tree. I escaped the peak of the flood, waited for the boat in the temple, and came here by boat."

After hearing what Shen Ge said, Xu Qiankui turned around and stared at his son, "Did you hear that? Shen Ge and the others are fine on the river! Your mother and the others are all good at water, how could they drown in the water? Go and get rid of those nasty things. Pull it off for me!"

After yelling, Xu Qiankui coughed heartbreakingly.

"Son, go right now. Don't worry, don't cough up blood again." Boss Xu stepped forward and patted his father on the back.

Seeing that the old man was coughing up blood, Shen Ge quickly asked, "Can the doctor please take a look at it?"

Mr. Xu said in a low voice, "The doctor's house is down the slope, and even the people and the house are gone."

Shen Ge made a quick decision, "I followed the Lin family's big boat. There is a doctor on board. I will ask the doctor to come over and show Aweng a look!"

Xu Yuefeng turned around and ran out, "I know which shipyard it is. I'll go and get it."

The eldest daughter-in-law, who was cooking dinner in the kitchen, stuck her head out and shouted, "It's dark and the roads are slippery, you damn girl, run slower!"

Shen Ge helped Xu Qiankui back to the house and sat on a chair. It took a long time for Xu Qiankui to suppress his coughing and asked feebly, "You came here with the Lin family's boat in Xuanzhou? Did the Lin family find someone?"

Shen Ge simply replied, "We found it. It happened that Mrs. Lin and the others were sheltering from the rain in the temple with us, so my third uncle and I got on the boat and went to the Xuanzhou Escort Bureau to report that the escort boat was washed away by the water."

Xu Qiankui leaned back in his chair and half-closed his eyes, "So, it was the Lin family who fought with the bandit boss and others in Xianxian Gorge today?"...

"Strictly speaking, it's me." Shen Ge explained, "When I spent the night at Xiacai Pier last night, someone came on board and tried to kill me, but the bodyguard hired by the Lin family helped stop him. Who knew that person Still not giving up, today I found water bandits from the Xianxian Gorge to rob the boat."

Xu Qiankui's eyes widened, "Who wants to kill you, and on which road?"

Shen Ge said seriously, "Ah Weng, this matter involves a lot, and I can't explain it clearly for a while. But I promise Ah Weng that I have never done anything to offend the conscience of heaven and earth. Those who want to kill me, I can handle it too, don't worry."

"I still can't trust you, kid? But still..."

Before Xu Qiankui finished speaking, Mr. Xu walked in quickly from outside and whispered, "Dad, Mr. Jiang is here."

Jiang Laosan refers to the third leader of the first-line Xia Jiang bandit. Xu Qiankui nodded, raised his chin to Shen Ge, "You go in and rest first."

Later."

Shen Ge stood up and lowered his voice and said, "Aweng just needs to follow the rules of Wangping Town. I will settle my grudges with Yixianxia after I leave the town."

Xu Qiankui nodded and motioned to his eldest son to bring them in.

Jiang Laosan howled as soon as he entered the room, "Uncle Kui, my eldest brother was harmed by others, my second brother was also injured, and more than thirty brothers died. How sad is my heart..."

Xu Qiankui pretended to be surprised, "How could such a big thing happen?"

Of course, Jiang Laosan couldn't say that they failed to kill, but were killed instead. He just cried, "The murderer who killed my elder brother and brothers entered the village by boat. Please make it easier for me. I will risk my life." Go and avenge my eldest brother and brothers!"

Xu Qiankui's face darkened, "The Third Master also saw it. Most of the houses in the town were destroyed. Even if the houses are still there, every house is empty and every household is crying. It all depends on the input of the dock. The people in the town are Only then can I buy coffins, medicine, and food. Please tell me, third master, what kind of convenience do you want me to do for you?"

Cutting off people's wealth is like killing their parents. Jiang Laosan stopped crying and said nothing.

Xu Qiankui coughed a few more times, then softened his tone and continued, "The third master is a sensible person. I know that this idea is definitely not yours. I will pretend that you haven't said this. How should we deal with it in the future? You The grievances with the people on the boat are beyond my control outside the town, but if you dare to take action in the town, the people in Wangping Town will never stand idly by."

This time, he did break the rules. Jiang Laosan raised his hand and rubbed his face irritably, and told Xu Qiankui the truth, "Uncle Kui, I'm going to tell you the truth, but you can't say this to anyone else." A few days ago, the official family came to us and said that as long as we could change our ways, not only would we forget the past, but we would also be given a clear guide. There were people on the Lin family's ship who were named by the officials to be arrested. I knew all the rules, but this was an official incident. As a family member, please do it for your convenience."

Xu Qiankui coughed violently again, and Shen Ge in the back room clenched his fists.

Jiang Laosan stood up and brought a cup of tea to Xu Qiankui, with a hint of pride in his eyes and brows, "I don't need to tell you what the consequences of offending an official are. You see..."

Xu Qiankui took his tea and put it on the table, and said seriously, "The officials have formal arrest documents for arresting people. The third boss will bring the documents. You don't need to do anything. I will arrest the person and hand it over to you myself."

If he had a document from the imperial court, why would he come over here and talk nonsense to an old guy like you? Jiang Laosan's face sank, "Uncle Kui, after so many years of friendship, I can talk to you about everything I can and can't say." I’ve said it, let’s not beat around the bush, just give me a pleasant word.”
