Poor Tu Qi, who had been silenced by Ba She, was still in a state of shock and confusion, not grasping at all the meaning behind Ba She's interruption.
It was only when the elders in the central hut of the village heard the commotion and sent an older child, who could speak clearly, to call Tu Qi for questioning, that Tu Qi was still frantically trying to articulate some defense--
Eventually, it was Ba She who called two or three people to push and pull Tu Qi to where the elders were gathered.
"Everyone, quiet down, quiet down. Listen to me, I think those two people probably don't mean any harm, otherwise, they wouldn't have let Tu Qi come back so easily."
Ba She, seeing everyone's emotions on the verge of spiraling out of control, couldn't help but curse Tu Qi in his heart while he hurried to calm everyone down.
