Back to the water village, the only way is by water.
Xiao Ming and Xiao Wu hid in their hiding place, watching the gang members in the square escorting the prisoners away one after another.
They waited until dark before sneaking to the west.
Not far away is a small pier on the Chao Phraya River.
There are many survivors who make boats their home on the river.
Because the gang has issued martial law, they all parked on the shore.
The bodyguard uniforms worn by the two people came into play again, and they took Gong Da on board one of the willow leaf-shaped boats.
They said that the gang wanted to requisition them to carry out a secret mission, and they left overnight.
The boatman and his wife did not dare to disobey.
Xiao Wu also ordered that the sailing noise should be quiet and not alert others.
The couple had no choice but to row with oars.
Fortunately, the direction of the water village was to the south, in the same direction as the entrance to the sea.
The boat could go down the river.
Although it was a bit slow, its whereabouts were secretive.
In the night, the Grand Palace, farther and farther away, was brightly lit and golden, as usual, but its owner had changed.
One of the two warships at Nanshuimen is left unguarded.
The gang had just gained control of the market and was in a chaotic stage of management.
The boat took advantage of this loophole and successfully left the market.
Xiao Ming looked back at the thousands of lights in the market, remembering the days and nights spent here, and couldn't bear to look back.
Xiao Wu was brave and careful, and ordered the boatman to continue rowing until they reached the edge of the city, then allowed them to dock and stay here for the night before setting off again in the morning.
Although they felt safe, the two of them did not dare to be careless and decided to take turns to stand guard and remain vigilant.
The boatman and his wife were frightened and cooked dinner.
Xiao Ming and Xiao Wu did not eat their food, but their attitudes were much more gentle and no longer as threatening as before.
Gong Da woke up again, and when he got to this place, he no longer needed him as a talisman.
Xiao Ming still spared his life, but he wanted to return to Shuicun.
If he hadn't met Le Ying and his daughter yet, they would probably fall into the hands of the gang, and Gong Da could be exchanged for hostages.
Nothing happened overnight, and early the next morning, Xiao Ming and Xiao Wu washed their faces and returned to their true colors.
The boatman and his wife were surprised and happy.
They never dreamed that two great champions would arrive at the same time.
Their fear suddenly disappeared and they curiously asked this and that.
Immediately, the anchor was pulled out and the boat set sail.
The boat started to run at full speed and moved forward in the direction directed by Xiao Ming.
Not a single boat was encountered along the way.
The news of the battle at the market yesterday must have spread.
No one dared to go to the market until the situation was clear.
The wind was strong and the waves were rough, so Xiao Ming kept standing on the bow of the boat, observing the west bank to avoid missing the correct river channel.
Fortunately, we didn't get lost.
The boat turned right and entered the branch of the river leading to the water village.
Jungles gradually appeared on both sides of the bank, and the faint roar of nuclear-mutated macaques could be heard, which made Xiao Ming feel familiar.
Xiao Wu also came out of the cabin to look at the scenery.
He listened to Xiao Ming's talk about the tranquility and comfort of the water village.
He felt longing for it.
He seemed to have stepped out of the shadow brought to him by Xiao Taohong or the president.
Suddenly, intensive gunfire came from the front.
Xiao Ming's heart skipped a beat and his expression changed.

That was the direction of Shuicun.
Xiao Wu reacted quickly and asked the boatman to turn off the motor, move closer to the shore, and stop under a large tree with dense leaves.
As soon as the boat was hidden, bursts of roaring sounds came from the sky, getting closer and closer.
After a while, three armed helicopters passed overhead and headed east.
The armed helicopter originally belonged to the military, but now, it is not clear whether the people on board are friends or foes.
Xiao Ming imagined several possibilities in his mind, none of which were optimistic.
He couldn't help but feel confused.
If something happened to Shuicun, he really didn't know where to go.
Xiao Wu, who was opposite him, suddenly widened his eyes, drew out the katana on his back like lightning, and threw it at Xiao Ming with a "whoosh".
Xiao Ming didn't think anything, then he felt the sharp wind of the blade blowing across his cheek.
There was a scream behind him, and an object fell on his heel.
He immediately shook off his brief daze, drew out his katana while turning around, and saw clearly the object at his feet.
It was a furry monster covered with large and small blisters, lying face down on the board of the boat, with Xiaowu's katana poking out from the back of its neck.
"Boatman, sail the boat quickly!"
Xiao Wu shouted sharply, his voice trembling.
Xiao Ming also felt tense all over, as if facing a formidable enemy.
It turned out that the big tree above his head was crawling with the same monster at some time.
It showed sharp white teeth and a pair of big blood-red eyes.
From between the blisters on his face, , staring at him fiercely.
This was the first time he had seen the true form of a nuclear-mutated macaque.
He couldn't imagine what would happen if these monsters jumped on the boat at the same time.
The board of the boat is too narrow, which is not enough for Xiao Ming and Xiao Wu to use their skills.
Once they fall into the water, there is almost no chance of survival.
No matter how good you are, you will be eaten by the piranhas in the water until you are left with only bones.
Fortunately, Xiao Wu's killing of the enemy with one knife had a deterrent effect, and the knife in Xiao Ming's hand was not a vegetarian.
Although the macaques in the tree were ready to move, none of them stood out anymore.
The boatman was in a hurry and drove the boat away from the shore and back to the middle of the river.
Only then was it safe.
The macaques in the trees all let out shrill screams to see them off.
The water village was finally near, but it was no longer the water village in Xiao Ming's memory.
This peaceful, tranquil paradise was now filled with thick smoke, and the stilt wooden houses hanging over the river were tilted here and there, and some were still burning.
Even though he was mentally prepared, Xiao Ming still felt an unbearable sense of collapse.
Before the boat was stable, he jumped onto the shore and shouted in panic: "Elder Godmother Yani" No one answered him.
He only saw swaying corpses, either killed by bombs or shot to death.
They were all women, boys and girls he was familiar with in the water village.
It was the three armed helicopters that did it just now.
These guys actually attacked unarmed old, weak, women and children.
Xiao Ming's heart was filled with self-blame.
It must have been the president's order to send his men to eliminate the roots and eliminate his escape route.
He found the elder.
A big hole had been blown out of his stomach.
The old man fell in a pool of blood and was still breathing.
The elder saw Xiao Ming, and his eyes that were on the verge of death regained some vitality: "Xiao Ming, you are back.
How is Yani?"
Seeing that he was about to die, Xiao Ming still cared about others.

Tears streamed down his face and he knelt beside him: "Elder, Yani has been cured, but you and the villagers..."
He became more and more sad.
If he hadn't saved Yani, he wouldn't have gotten involved in the fight at the market, nor would he have set himself on fire, causing Shuicun to suffer.
In order to save one person, but hurt many people, is it worth it?
The elder saw through his heart and showed kindness: "Silly boy, don't blame yourself.
Everything has a cause and effect, and everything is fate.
We are just escaping from the suffering of the world in advance and going to the Western Paradise to enjoy the blessings.
Xiao Ming, you have to live a good life.
Go down, there are countless Yani waiting for you to save in this world.
Remember, follow your own heart, if your heart is gone, the light will be extinguished, and if your heart is clear, the light will be bright."
Xiao Ming burst into tears: "Elder, I can't do it, I'm useless, not even Xiaohua, not even you can save me."
Xiao Wu appeared behind him with a heavy tone: "Brother, he is already dead."
Xiao Ming wiped away his tears, turned around, stared at Gong Da who was lying at Xiao Wu's feet like a dead pig, and said ferociously: "Little devil, I want to use your head to pay tribute to the villagers."
Xiao Wu let the boatman and his wife leave, with a special warning not to tell anyone that they had seen them, otherwise, they would suffer the same fate as the people in the water village.
The two dug a big pit to bury the elders and people from Shuicun.
Leying's mother and daughter were not in it, and their lives were uncertain.
Xiao Ming cried while digging, feeling that life was so fragile and fate was so unpredictable.
Since entering the ring, he has reached an unprecedented level of confidence in his control of his body, but this confidence has been shattered by the hand of fate.
No matter how powerful an individual is, he cannot resist the unpredictable fate.
Even a man as powerful as General Tang Long ended up with no body left.
It took the two of them half a day to build the tomb.
Xiao Ming recited a Buddhist sutra taught by the elders in front of the grave, which was regarded as a way to save the souls of the dead.
In accordance with the custom of the Tai people, Xiao Wu lit an oil lamp in front of the grave and burned it until the lamp went out, indicating that the deceased had officially returned to the west and entered the paradise world.
The last ritual was to cut off Gong Da's head as a memorial.
Originally, when Xiaohua died, Xiao Ming wished he could cut off Gong Da in pieces to relieve his hatred.
But now, Shuicun has suffered a disaster, and the culprit is the president, who is also Chinese.
He then thought that bad guys did not distinguish between nationalities.
No matter how much he tortured Gong Da, the dead could not be resurrected, so he could just kill this little devil with one knife.
Gong Da's limbs and jaw were dislocated for a day and a night.
They were red and swollen and very painful, but he was very strong and kept silent.
The two of them were about to take action when the sound of motors came from the river.
The sound was very strong and it was not the boat that sent them here.
"Damn it, isn't it enough to kill them all?"
Xiao Ming cursed, picked up his submachine gun, and rushed towards the river.
Xiao Wu followed closely and reminded: "Brother, we can't fight hard and set up an ambush."
The two of them had just set up an ambush in the grass on the shore when an armed speedboat appeared in sight, riding the wind and waves and sailing at high speed.
Xiao Ming regained his composure and whispered to Xiao Wu beside him: "When the enemy comes ashore, you fire and I throw a grenade to catch them off guard."
The speedboat stopped next to a stilt wooden house that had been burned down to only a few wooden piles.
A group of soldiers wearing camouflage green combat armor jumped out and quickly set up a beachhead position.
Both of them thought that these soldiers must have surrendered to the gang just like the people who flew the helicopter gunships and were working for the tiger.
Taking advantage of the enemy's unstable foothold, it was the best time to ambush.
Xiao Wu was about to pull the trigger, but was held down by Xiao Ming: "Wait, don't shoot yet."
It turned out that Leying and her daughter actually appeared behind the soldiers.
It was not known whether they were captured.
I saw anxious and worried expressions on their faces, looking around, moving freely, and not being detained.

Xiao Ming was sure that these soldiers had not betrayed and were one of his own.
He stood up and greeted them while shouting: "Godmother Yani, I am here."
Leying's mother and daughter also saw him, with surprise in their eyes and they immediately ran over.
The three of them hugged each other heavily, and Yani cried and laughed, calling her brother constantly.
The joy of being reunited with his relatives after the disaster immediately dispelled a lot of the haze that had accumulated in Xiao Ming's heart for the past two days
