The government officers stepped forward and arrested the five elders.
With the five heads of the Zhong Family taken, everyone panicked and rushed forward. The Zhong Family was not to be trifled with; their fierceness was well-known.
They had just been subdued by the Feng Family because someone actually died, but now it was different. That matter had been resolved. How could they still arrest the whole family, and five of them at that? How could they accept this?
Everyone began to tussle with the officers, refusing to let them take the men away. The courtyard turned into chaos.
"You can't take them! No one will take them away!"
"Exactly, you can't take them!"
"That matter has already been privately resolved with the Feng Family. Why is the government still arresting people?"
"..."
"..."
The scene terrified the villagers; could the Zhong Family really be defying the government? Were they crazy?
