now.
Sitting on the bed in the solitary confinement cell, Qin Dali said slowly, "Yes! This matter can't be left like this..."
What?
Qin Laosan suddenly turned around and looked at his father: "Dad! What did you just say?"
Qin Dali: "I said... this matter can't just be left like this."
Old Master Qin was overjoyed! He hated Qin Family Village to death, and he didn't really have any attachment to it. After all, he had lived in Songjiang since birth and was completely unfamiliar with Qin Family Village in the mountain city. He came here to recognize his ancestors and was locked up by them. How could he not be angry? Unfortunately, his father had a deep affection for Qin Family Village, so he couldn't say anything more. Now his father had said such things himself.
How could he not be overjoyed: "Father! You've finally seen the light... What's there to miss about this wretched Qin Family Village? They treated us like this, and they treated Xiao Jiang like that too! We absolutely cannot let them get away with this..."
"Dad! What do you think we should do?"
...
Qin Dali looked outside and said, "From the conversation between the two people outside, we know that Xiao Jiang brought people here, and a leader has come to force Qin Family Village to let us out."
"It happened so suddenly! The guards received a death order not to let us out, so there's a high chance they'll rush here with their men soon, and the leader will most likely follow."
"What do you think would happen if they saw us here?!"
Qin Laosan: "Xiao Jiang will be furious when he sees you locked up, Father. He won't let Qin Family Village off the hook."
Qin Dali: "That's not enough... We've only been detained without food and haven't been injured... Besides, how can we prove we haven't eaten? If the Qin family village turns around and accuses us of causing trouble, even if temporarily detaining us violates the law, some family ties can make it seem like a minor issue..."
"In the end, there's probably not much of a problem..."
Qin Laosan: "Then what do we do..."
Qin Dali: "An excuse! If you want to make trouble for Xiao Jiang, you need an excuse. Do you still have the list they gave you?"
Qin Laosan: "Ah... here... let me look..." He quickly went to the corner where he had thrown the list of departure requirements given to him by Elder Jia.
Qin Laosan: "Found Dad... Ah... Dad...! What are you doing... Why are you smearing ashes on your face..."
Qin Dali: "Keep your voice down... From now on, I'm your father, who's been starving for a day and a night, and is also suffering from a fever and is on the verge of death..."
Do you understand?
He lay on the ground, his clothes disheveled, his eyes half-closed, and with his ashen face, people would believe him if he said he was about to kick the bucket!
The old man is over seventy, no matter what.
Qin Laosan: "Ah... Father... I understand..."
.....
now.
The Qin clan chief followed behind the crowd with great anxiety. He hoped that Qin Jiang and the others would get lost and wander off, so that he could take advantage of the chaos to release Qin Dali and the others first.
There's still room for maneuver!
But to his disappointment, Qin Jiang and the others, led by the young man, headed straight for the confinement room in Qin Family Village.
"Damn it..." The Qin clan chief's legs were too weak to catch up with the people in front of him, so he could only say to the young man next to him again: "Quick... take a few people and rescue Qin Dali. If they don't release him, just take him by force."
The young man nodded, "Ah...okay!" and immediately led several other young men rushing towards the solitary confinement cell...
Chief Qin: "Hopefully we can make it in time..."
...
Ahead.
Qin Jiang's face was extremely cold.
Leader Ma's expression was equally cold.
Qin Wen explained, "Chairman Qin, Mayor Ma! Don't worry, nothing will happen... There must be some misunderstanding here."
Neither Qin Jiang nor Leader Ma spoke; in the current situation, saying anything would be superfluous, only facts would prevail.
Qin Family Village is not large.
Soon the group arrived near the solitary confinement room.
I could hear arguing in the distance.
"Quick! The clan chief says to release Qin Dali..."
"We can't release them. The clan chief said that he and the other elders can only release them personally."
"Something really happened. Qin Jiang has brought people and city leaders here. If they don't release them, things will get really bad..."
"So you were involved too? How much money did Qin Jiang give you to make you lie to me like this?"
"Why would I lie to you? Ugh, are you going to release them or not? If you don't, don't blame me for being impolite."
"You're welcome! I'd like to see just how 'unreserved' you are. I'll make this clear: even if Qin Jiang brings his men to me today, they won't be able to take his grandfather away unless they step over my dead body. No benefits, no people! I mean it!"
...
Bang!
Upon hearing this conversation, the Qin clan chief collapsed to the ground.
It's over...
It's completely over...
"Chieftain! Are you alright?"
"Clan leader..."
"...."
...
Qin Wen, who was trying to explain that it was a misunderstanding, felt a sudden darkness before his eyes when he heard these conversations.
Leader Ma: "Outrageous!"
Qin Jiang, his expression growing even colder, headed towards the confinement area, coldly declaring, "Is that so? Then I'll see who can stop me from saving Grandpa today..."
...
"who..."
Qin Laoliu, the gatekeeper:
"Who's making a racket there...who..."
He suddenly froze before he could finish speaking.
Then I saw it.
As far as the eye could see, a large group of people were densely packed in from outside. These people were dressed in black suits, and each of them had a cold expression. In particular, the young man in the lead was more domineering, but the pressure from the two-meter-tall strong man standing next to him was indescribable.
Glug!
Qin Laoliu subconsciously swallowed his saliva.
How is that possible?
How could Qin Jiang have really brought so many people here? And how could they possibly have gotten here?
The clan drums just sounded to gather everyone, and all the clansmen went? Did these people kill all the clansmen...?
That can't be right.
How dare Qin Jiang? How could he do that? Doesn't he know what it means to bring so many people to help me win a bet?
Can he afford it?
...
now.
The young man pointed to the solitary confinement cell and said to Qin Jiang:
"Brother Jiang!"
"Grandpa Qin is locked up inside..."
...
Qin Jiang looked at Qin Laoliu and the others who were blocking the entrance to the detention room, armed with weapons: "Within three counts: Open the door! Get out!"
"three..."
"..."
...
"Outrageous?" Qin Laoliu: "This is Qin Family Village! You dare to barge in like this? You're practically courting death... Brothers! Grab your weapons... Keep an eye on the rooms, and take Qin Jiang's grandfather hostage..."
"Qinjiang!"
"Don't be so presumptuous! If you dare take another step closer, I'll make sure your grandfather dies here today..."
...
Hearing his threat, Qin Jiang grew even colder and checked the numbers:
"two..."
...
Leader Ma uttered the second sentence:
"Outrageous!"
...
Qin Laoliu became even angrier when he heard him continue counting:
"Qin Jiang...don't think I..."
But he was furious!
Someone was angrier than him.
Then I saw...
