Shuiwa Village was not an outlaw stronghold, and these men were no bandits.
Saying the right thing could have made them cautious enough to leave peacefully.
Otherwise, these two young men might be fine, but what about the three female comrades?
At this moment, it seemed like that man had reached a consensus with several others.
He directly said to a few people, "This is your fault, not ours, so we can't let you leave. Just stay here. Shuiwa Village is pretty good, isn't it?"
He even turned back to the men beside him and asked, "Isn't it nice here?"
The men just laughed heartily.
Zhao Cheng, the leader, pointed at Sun Xiuyuan, "Keep that woman for me, as for the other two, do as you please..."
Then the crowd charged at them, quickly separating the five, with Sun Xiuyuan screaming in terror, and the other two girls no longer able to stand, were dragged away by some villagers.
