The nearby village was called Qingtian. Usually, it had some contact with Niwo Village.
The people from Men Village didn't expect to run into people from Qingtian here.
The Qingtian villagers came because they wanted to find things left behind.
They had heard that the people from Niwo Village had run away because of the famine.
So they came to see if there were any useful things they could take.
It was wrong, but everyone else did it, and they felt that if they didn't take something, they would lose out.
They didn't expect to meet people from Men Village here.
The two villages already had a grudge. When enemies meet, their eyes turn red with anger.
The leader of the Qingtian group was a man in his forties, named Qinglin. When he saw the people from Men Village, he said to the others beside him, "All the men step forward."
This time, the one leading the group from Men Village was a cold and cruel man.
Gianna thought she heard Dahu call him Men Bao.
Men Bao stared coldly at Qinglin and said, "Are you trying to start trouble?"
Qinglin's eyes were full of hate. "Men Bao, did you take the two missing children from our village?"
Men Bao didn't deny it.
He licked his lips and said, "So what if I did? Qinglin, I'm telling you, stay out of this."
Suddenly, a woman rushed out from the Qingtian crowd. She was crying loudly, full of pain. "I'll fight you! Give me back my child!"
The men from Qingtian were also very angry.
Gianna felt very heavy in her heart. Her fists were tight, and her hand holding the axe was shaking.
Cruel. That was the only word in her mind.
The people from Men Village deserved to die.
Floyd noticed that Gianna was not calm. He gently patted her back and said, "Let's wait and see. Don't be angry."
He also wished he could rush out and kill those people.
Gianna's face was dark. "I want them dead. They don't deserve to live in this world."
The people from Men Village were no longer human.
Floyd strongly agreed and nodded.
He didn't feel guilty for killing people from Men Village. He felt it was the right thing to do.
Especially when he thought about what could happen to his three children if they were caught by people from Men Village. That thought made him unable to hold back his killing intent.
The woman ignored everyone trying to stop her and rushed forward.
A young man ran after her.
Gianna frowned.
The five men from Men Village were strong, and all five of them had knives.
If the woman rushed up like that, she would be killed.
"Move!" Gianna said just one word, then quickly ran out.
The man from Men Village who was closest to the woman had already raised his knife. As he watched the woman get closer, he showed a crazy smile.
Just as he was about to strike her with the knife, an axe came down from above.
"Ah!" he screamed.
The axe hit the man on his shoulder blade.
Men Bao turned around right away. When he saw Gianna, his eyes almost popped out.
Gianna shouted to Qinglin, "Tell your men to fight now!"
She was very strong, but she didn't want to show too much strength in front of people from other villages.
Dahu's parents quickly carried Dahu to the side to hide.
Floyd ran to Gianna and said, "You step aside. Let me handle this."
Gianna obediently walked to the side.
Several men from Qingtian Village arrived, surrounding the five people from Men Village.
Men glared at Floyd and said, "Did you kill my older brothers?"
Floyd sneered, "Your Men Village people are scum, and all of them deserve to die. They came to our village yesterday, but we chased them off. Who knows who killed them after they left? After all, you've done so many evil things, they deserved to die."
Qin shouted, "Floyd, let's join forces and kill these five scum!"
Any village close to Men Village never escaped disaster. If any child or woman went missing in these villages, it was definitely the doing of Men Village.
The problem was that when they came looking for trouble, the bodies were already destroyed.
In this year of disaster, the world was already in chaos.
When they went to the county to report, the county magistrate only gave them a perfunctory response.
Gianna knew the fate of the five people.
She didn't feel like watching anymore.
Instead, she walked toward Dahu.
Dahu's parents were terrified when they saw Gianna walking toward them.
Dahu's mother immediately kneeled in front of Gianna and begged, "Gianna, please spare my Dahu. I know it's all his fault."
Dahu's father also knelt down.
Gianna coldly looked at them and said, "Do you know you're helping him do evil? You're very clear about the kind of people from Men Village."
Dahu looked at her with hatred in his eyes, "Bitch, if you have the guts, kill me."
Gianna stepped forward and slapped Dahu hard across the face.
Her tone was filled with murderous intent as she said, "Do you think I'm afraid to kill you?"
Dahu instantly lost his spirit.
Gianna pulled Dahu's parents up.
She coldly looked at them, "I used to think it was only Dahu who didn't know better. I didn't expect you two to disappoint me too."
Dahu's father sighed with guilt, "We scolded him, we tried to stop him, but he wouldn't listen. Even if we sever ties with him, he wants to get revenge on you, I..."
Gianna questioned, "So you just let him be? Your family is in this situation because of you. Hand over the land deed!"
Before, Dahu sold two acres of land, so now he only had two acres of land left.
Dahu's father looked at Gianna in confusion.
Gianna spoke seriously, "Sell your son's life."
She really wanted to kill Dahu, but when she looked at Dahu's father and mother, she knew they had always been honest.
If it were only because of this, she wouldn't have spared them.
What made her decide to release Dahu was seeing slap marks on Dahu's father and mother's faces.
Pity for all parents in the world.
Dahu's father hurriedly took out the land deed.
Dahu shouted, "Old fool, don't give the deed to her!"
But that shout only earned another slap.
"Be honest. You should be grateful you're still alive thanks to your parents."
Gianna took the land deed and put it in her sleeve, saying, "You can leave now! Don't come back to the village. I won't let anyone who tries to harm my children stay in the village. If you do, I'll make the first move."
Dahu's parents knew that Gianna had spared them.
In this day and age, if two or three people died, no one would care.
Every day, people were starving or dying for various reasons.
Gianna warned Dahu, speaking slowly, "As parents, you should teach your children to be good, or they'll harm others and themselves. Do you really think that because you joined forces with people from Men Village, they will let you go?"
Without saying anything more, she turned and went to check how things were going.
Dahu's father quickly pushed Dahu away.
Not long after, the five people from Men Village had already died at the hands of the angry villagers of Qingtian Village.
