"Two donkey carts and all the belongings on them sank into the water. We have to find our money from this water village."

Li Huowang looked at the meat boiling in the pot, calculating what he needed to do next.

No matter what happened before, since it has happened, it should be let go and look forward.

The most urgent task now is to find what he wants from this place and then leave with the others.

"Moreover, we can't delay here. If there is anything more terrifying than a village full of corpses, it is a village full of rotting corpses. Even if the dead don't move, there are other ways to kill."

Li Huowang opened his mouth and tore off a piece of meat from the tip of his sword, looking at the others who were eating hungrily. "Are you full? Let's get to work."

Wearing clothes that had been dried by fire, the others gnawed on the meat in their hands and followed Li Huowang, who was carrying a sword, out of the kitchen.

He didn't wander around this reed village like a headless fly, but went straight to the Yuan family ancestral hall. This broken place was too big and too chaotic, and he needed a local guide.

"Don't... Don't kill me!"

The half-grown boy who had been scared to pee his pants before was now trembling with fear as Li Huowang held his sword against the wall corner again.

Li Huowang didn't bother to waste time talking to him and asked, "Where did your leader hide the stolen silver?"

"In the storage room! Grandpa's storage room! All the stolen silver is there!" The boy quickly spilled everything he knew, like pouring beans out of a bamboo basket.

Li Huowang's clothes were still wet with blood, and just smelling the bloody smell on him made Yuan Dalarng feel a little wet in his pants. He didn't dare to have any other thoughts.

It was already dark outside, and the group held fluorescent stones, following the boy as he led them around the reed village.

Under the dark blue-green fluorescence, everything bloody around them looked like a ghost, and the timid boy couldn't help but tremble.

Suddenly, his body stiffened, and he turned to cry on the body of a woman lying by the road.

Li Huowang leaned over and saw the remaining half of the woman's face.

The woman didn't look very old, and her phoenix eyes were full of fear and despair.

"Who is this person to you?" Li Huowang asked coldly.

"She's my wife!" The boy responded in a trembling voice. "I really liked her! But she's dead! My parents are dead too!"

As if thinking of something sad, the boy suddenly cried even louder.

Hearing the piercing cry, Li Huowang's expression suddenly twisted, and he raised and lowered his right hand.

"Stab... Ah~!" The boy, who had just been crying, had his ear cut off in an instant.

"Lead the way! Did I tell you to stop?" Li Huowang's roar contained a hint of cruelty.

Feeling someone lightly tugging at his sleeve from behind, the irritable Li Huowang shook it off violently.

"Do you pity him? Do you think he's a romantic type? Why don't you ask where this wife came from?"

Seeing everyone's eyes turn to him, the boy said in a helpless voice, "My father stole her. But the wives of other people in the village were also stolen. Even my grandmother and mother were stolen."

Bai Lingmiao opened her mouth wide, looking incredulously at the corpses of women around her.

Seeing the sword, which was still covered in his own blood, being raised again, the boy shuddered all over and quickly stood up to continue leading the way.

Seeing that Bai Lingmiao was a little scared, Xiaoman walked over to her side, using his black-furred hand to support her shoulder and leaning into his arms, comforting her, "Women in a thief's den are like this. Don't think too much.""But why did they go with those people to rob others? Weren't they also taken by force?"

Bai Lingmiao couldn't believe it. She remembered that there were women among the robbers.

"In fact, people and dogs are the same. They can both be trained."

Upon hearing this, Li Huowang turned his head to look at the other medicine gatherers behind him, but he didn't see who said those words.

"Ah..."

Following the boy's twists and turns, they stopped in front of a house locked with a tiger-head lock.

Looking around, the reed house had turned into a wooden one. This place was considered important in the village.

"Clang!" With the splashing of sparks, the tiger-head lock was split in half.

Kicking the door open, Li Huowang pressed the boy against him and rushed inside.

It was clearly a warehouse with rows of wooden cabinets, all filled with large boxes.

When the boy opened one of the boxes, the room suddenly lit up. The box was full of silver pieces.

As each box was opened, the others couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

In addition to the silver, there were also many valuable items such as gold and silver jewelry, which looked like they were taken from women.

There were also many valuable goods, such as silk, iron ingots, and books. The whole room was filled with things that the water bandits had stolen over the years.

"Oh my God, I have never seen so much money in my life! How many wives can I marry with this?" Looking at the white silver pieces in front of him, Gouwa's voice began to tremble, and his eyes were full of greed.

Li Huowang's attention was not on the gold and silver, but on a few books.

He casually flipped through them and found that they were just some enlightenment books and a few Buddhist scriptures.

"The old man's method of using young boys and girls to attract water doesn't seem to be learned from any of these books. Could this disgusting method also be passed down by word of mouth?"

As Li Huowang continued to search, he saw the bottom book and was stunned for a moment.

Li Huowang held the book in his hands, frowning and looking at the words on the cover, trying hard to figure out something.

"What...what kind of words are these?"

"Senior Li, should we move all the things in the boxes out now? It seems like we can't take so much." Bai Lingmiao walked over and said.

Li Huowang showed the scripture in his hand to the white-haired girl in front of him.

"Do you recognize the words on this book?"

Bai Lingmiao's eyes showed a hint of confusion. "Senior Li, I don't recognize the words."

As soon as she finished speaking, a stuttering voice came from behind her.

"Hua...Hua...Huayan Sutra!"

Li Huowang looked up and saw the idiot standing there, staring blankly. "Are you sure this is the Huayan Sutra written on it?"

"Um!"

After getting an accurate answer, Li Huowang slowly slid his finger over the character "Yan," his eyes showing deep confusion.

"Is this the character 'Yan'? Why can't I recognize it now?"
