As the saying goes, a man has gold under his knees. He kneels to the heavens, to the earth, to his parents and to the king.

As he kneeled down, the anger in my heart dissipated quite a bit, so I waved my hand and said, "Forget it, just get up. I'm not dead yet."

Hearing my words, Miao De stood up once again, as though he was relieved of a heavy burden. However, there was still a slightly ashamed expression on his face. Seeing him like this, the anger in my heart finally completely dissipated.

Afterwards, he said a few more words of apology before calling for someone to tie the Gu seedlings up.

In the face of solid evidence, the Gu Miao did not deny it and admitted everything. However, he did not mention a single word about the whereabouts of those children. No matter how much Miao De and the rest threatened him, the Gu Miao gritted his teeth, refusing to reveal a single word.

That's their business, and I have no intention of interfering. After all, the good guys from before almost lost their lives. I don't want to have to do it again.

"Um, when you guys came over, didn't you see the fire in your village?" Why does it seem like you guys aren't in a hurry when I see you? "

When they were about to send that Gu Miao back to the stronghold, I remembered that there was such a thing.

However, after I said this, Miao De had a baffled expression as he said, "You're still so far away. Can you see that our village is on fire?"

That's right! At such a distance, even if their village was on fire, we wouldn't be able to see it! However, what was that patch of fiery red that Zhang Zikong and I saw earlier?

Zhang Zikong said that Gu Miao was going to attack the villagers, and from the looks of it, Gu Miao had indeed attacked, but what did that have to do with the fire? By the time that flame appeared, Miao De and the Gu Miao should have already arrived near us!

Although I had some doubts, I still followed them back to the village at a leisurely pace. With them, Bighead was very well taken care of and carried on a stretcher.

However, when we returned to their village after almost three hours, we found that their village had already been reduced to ruins! Many old people and women were crying on the ruins left behind by the great fire!

The heck, could it be that the red light in the sky I saw earlier is really because of the fire here? I can see the fire from thirty kilometers away? Could this be what the old monk meant when he said 'destroy the village'?

Seeing this scene, Miao De immediately led his men to count the number of people and treat the injured. I, on the other hand, swiftly ran in the direction of the Miao Family!

Because on the way back, Miao told me that even though Hua Zi had recovered a lot and was able to move around freely, he had already locked him up in his woodshed when the Gu Miao said that the village's child's second disappearance was related to us!

My heart had been hanging in my throat all along as I rummaged through the ruins of the Mulder house, but fortunately, when I turned the ruins over, I didn't find the body of a charred man.

Could it be that Zhang Zikong had rushed back to save Huajie? But with such a long distance between them, would he be able to catch up? If he really did return, then where was he now?

Just when I was wondering, Miao De brought me a more troubling question.

After counting the villagers, Miao De came over to tell me that none of them were missing, not even a single one of them was injured!

What was going on? It was illogical to set fire to all the houses in the village, but not a single person was hurt.

The entire village was engulfed by the sea of fire, but the fire did not roam the surrounding forest. If one said that it was a natural fire, no one would believe it! But if someone had deliberately set fire, how could no one have been hurt? Could it be that when the fire broke out, everyone in the village had already left?

So if they were all gone, who let Wah Zi go?

Just when I was troubled by a bunch of questions, I suddenly saw a figure flash by and slip into the forest where Hua Zi was previously injured.

That figure wore white clothes and white pants, moreover, there seemed to be something on his back. If it wasn't Zhang Zikong, then who else could it be?

After seeing that figure, I immediately headed towards the forest. But after I entered the forest, where did I find the shadow of Zi Kong?

"Little brother, no matter how others think of you, I believe in you!"

A voice suddenly sounded from behind me, causing me to jump in fright! When I turned around, I saw clearly that it was Miao De's father chasing after me. He immediately pulled me by my hand and led me out of the forest towards the crowd.

I followed him out of the woods, even though I was surprised by his behavior. Because when he held my hand, he directly stuffed a ball of paper into my palm. Furthermore, when we were in the forest, his eyes were obviously vigilantly observing his surroundings!

When we were in the crowd, Miao De's father pulled me to a relatively secluded area and sat me down.

"I knew that the two people who came after me were not good people, but my disappointing son insisted on believing their words! This is great now, the village has been destroyed and the children who just came back have been lost again! "

At this point, Miao De's father started crying!

Although they knew that it was all because of the Gu seedlings, as long as they could find a way to make the Gu seedlings speak, the children would come back. However, I did my best to calm the old man down.

According to the old man, early in the morning after we entered the mountain, a man and a woman came to the village and directly found the Gu seedlings in the village. That night, all of the children in the village went missing! The next day, the two of them and the sapling found Miao De, saying that we were the one who caused the disappearance of the children in the village, and that we were going to sell those children to the head teacher in Vietnam!

Hearing that, Miao De got angry and without saying anything further, he gathered the remaining able-bodied men from the village and went into the mountains to look for us.

During this time, the old man also advised Miao De, but Miao De said he wouldn't listen to anything.

Hearing this, I couldn't help but start to get curious.

It's a man and a woman, and they are heading towards us. Could it be that I accidentally dug up someone's ancestral grave? Why do people always try to harm me wherever I go?

After calming the old man's emotions, I found an opportunity to open the paper ball he gave me and started reading.

They saw that the words on the ball of paper were still written by Zi Kong. They were also written with the juice of some unknown plant, and the content was very concise.

"The other side is about to make a big move. Return quickly!"

I was stunned when I saw the contents of the note. I saw him just now, but why is he here and not meeting me? And have someone send me a note?
