The three village heads were also quite angry at this moment.

The emergence of such people in their own village was a disgrace to the whole village, and above all, it trampled over their dignity as village heads.

What does this indicate? It indicates their incompetence and unworthiness of their positions.

The three of them fist saluted, saying, “Deal with them as you see fit, Lizheng. As for their family members, punish them according to the law. We have no

complaints.”

As for their family members, punish them according to the law. We have no

complaints.”Serving as village heads meant that they had a certain standing in the village and therefore, they could be connected with these villagers by kinship ties, which was why they had such a statement.

Several villagers who were co-guarantors with the three individuals were dissatisfied, stepping forward to plead their case.

“Lizheng, we didn’t know anything about this matter. You can’t punish us all. We are honest and law-abiding people who haven’t done anything wrong. We can’t be punished because of this beast.”

“That’s right, we’re innocent…”

“Lizheng, these three evildoers deserve to be killed. But we are all law-abiding, we’ve never even hurt an ant…”

We’re unjustly accused, Lizheng…”

Sun Licheng, with his hands behind his back, swept his gaze over the crowd, saying coldly, “Whether you’re wrongly accused or not has nothing to do with me, Sun Zaiyue. Daqian Country has its laws. Ten households are responsible by imperial decree. If you don’t agree, go to the county government to ask for justice and see how Mingfu will judge.”

Which of these villagers would dare to go to the county government? Some had never even left their village in their entire lives.

The crowd wailed, knowing they couldn’t escape punishment, they were suffocated with anger. Glancing at the three men crouching on the ground, they suddenly burned with rage.

Several people rushed forward to kick and curse them, “Evil demons! Why don’t you go die!”

“You troublemaker, should be beheaded right away…”

Tu Da and his wife along with Chen Ergou and his family were already controlled by the local guards. Seeing their sons being beaten, they couldn’t help but struggle and cry out.

“Stop beating, please don’t beat him anymore, he’s still a child…”

“He’s already so badly hurt, don’t hit him anymore…”

Chen Ergou’s wife saw her son being kicked and trampled by the crowd, and she fainted on the spot out of shock.

Chen Thirty did not have any family come to him, not even his wife.

His parents were said to have died long ago, and after his elder brothers had casually gotten him a wife, they split up and lived separately, cutting off most interactions. Naturally, they didn’t want to deal with his affairs.

Sun Licheng stomped his foot angrily, saying, “Stop it! If you kill them, you’ll all have to go to prison!”

Hearing this, the crowd backed off after delivering a final kick each.

At this moment, Doctor Li’s two grandsons were summoned by the village guards to give medical treatment to the three men lying on the ground.

Sun Licheng instructed, “First, lock them up in the village hall, I’ll interrogate them separately later.”

The guards in attendance were keeping a watchful eye on the three men, ready to haul them away once their injuries were attended to.

At this time, Jiang Sanlang was having his wound dressed at Doctor Li’s place.

He had a wound on the top of his head from where he’d been hit, but it had already stopped bleeding.

Doctor Li picked up a pair of scissors, cut off some hair around Jiang Sanlang’s wound, and noticed what seemed like signs of healing. He couldn’t help but ask, “Sanlang, did you apply any medicine?”

Otherwise, how could a half-a-finger-long wound heal so quickly?

Moreover, there was a trace of transparent medicinal extract on his hair, clearly, some kind of medicine had been applied and had dried up.

Jiang Sanlang cast his eyes downwards, pondered a moment and said, “I didn’t use any medicine.”

He knew his daughter must have applied something on his wound, but he couldn’t say it.

Doctor Li didn’t press further. He cleansed the wound again with medicinal liquid, sprinkled some medicinal powder on it, and bandaged it up.

“Sanlang, it seems like you are hurt pretty badly. Is your head feeling dizzy? Jiang Sanlang blinked, “I was drowsy at first, but I’m not dizzy now.”

“Hmm, that’s good.” Doctor Li said, “I’ll prescribe you some medicine. You should take it for a few days and rest for a while.”

Doctor Li took his brush to write the prescription, “If you still feel unwell, come back immediately. Don’t be negligent about a head injury.”

After writing the prescription, he personally prepared the medicine, let his daughter-in-law brew a packet of it in the back hall, and served it to Jiang Sanlang.

As Jiang Sanlang’s case was still pending, he had to stay in town and wait for a summons from the Lizheng.

Yingbao had been quiet in her father’s arms all the time.

The image of those men raising their sticks kept flashing through her mind, and she was still terrified.

“Daddy, it’s my fault, I shouldn’t have brought Youyou into town.” Otherwise her father wouldn’t have been hurt.

“It’s not your fault, Bao’er, it’s those bad people who wanted to do bad things. Whether we came or not, we couldn’t have avoided it.” Jiang Sanlang comforted her.

The deer from his home had always been coveted by others, so he did not let his daughter bring the deer with her to town with her elder nephew.

He didn’t expect those three men to be so cruel, attacking in broad daylight, trying to kill him and his daughter.

“Sanlang, I’ve had someone prepare a room for you, you should go and rest there.”

Seeing that the father and daughter had been sitting idle for a while, Doctor Li said, “I don’t know when it will be over at the Lizheng’s side. If it’s too late, you’ll sleep here and go home tomorrow.”

Jiang Sanlang: “Okay, thank you, Old Uncle Li, for your kindness.”

Doctor Li waved his hand: “It’s just a small effort. You’ve lost a lot of blood, you should go lie down for a while.”

“Alright.’

In Dongchen Village,

Chen Yin rushed his donkey cart directly to the Jiang Family, telling them that Jiang Sanlang had encountered robbers on the road and was currently being treated at Doctor Li’s place.

Jiang Liu’s wife was nearly scared into fainting, and hurriedly had eldest and second son go to town to check on him.

As soon as Jiang Dalang and Jiang Erlang heard, they did not hesitate to borrow Chen Yin’s donkey cart and rush to town.

When Chunniang heard that her husband had had an accident, her legs went weak and she wanted to accompany them, crying.

Jiang Da’s daughter-in-law persuaded, “You can’t help by going now. It’s better to stay at home and wait. Don’t worry, Chen Yin said that Sanlang and Yingbao are fine, nothing serious happened, and the bad guys have already been sent to the country hall, just waiting to be interrogated.”

Chunniang wiped her tears and reluctantly nodded her head.

By the time Jiang Dalang and Jiang Erlang arrived in town in their donkey cart, it was already dusk.

They arrived at Doctor Li’s house and found their younger brother, who was currently unconscious.

“Sanlang, what happened to your head?” Seeing that his brother’s head was bandaged up like a zongzi (dumpling), Jiang Dalang couldn’t help but ask worriedly.

Jiang Sanlang was already awake. Seeing his elder brothers arrive, he slowly sat up, touched the bandage on his head, and said, “I got hit on the head and got a cut, but I’ve been treated.”

“You got a cut? Are you hurt badly?” Jiang Dalang frowned.

“I’m fine now.” Jiang Sanlang said.

“You should lie down.” Jiang Erlang quickly reached out to help his younger brother lie back down.

Jiang Sanlang shook his head and was about to get out of bed, “I need to go check on things at the village hall, I can’t lie here.”

He didn’t know how long he had slept, but he imagined that the Lizheng’s interrogation must have finished, and it was time for them to question him.

“What exactly happened?” Jiang Dalang asked.

Jiang Sanlang then explained the situation from beginning to end. He turned to look at his sleeping daughter and sighed, “If it weren’t for Bao’er’s quick thinking to attack them with a scythe, I might have been killed right there.” Jiang Dalang was furious, “This Chen Lu! Since childhood, he has been spoiled by his parents and has been getting away with robbing and stealing everywhere. I didn’t expect him to dare to hurt you, Sanlang, we can’t let this matter slide.”

“I know.” Jiang Sanlang sneered, “He deliberately plotted to kill my daughter and me. How could I possibly let him go?”

If this time Lizheng Sun Licheng still wants to downplay the matter, then he would think of a way to finish those three men himself.

After all, nothing is more important than their lives.

They dared target his daughter, even if they die a hundred times, it would not be enough..
