Early the next morning, when Qin Dali, Big Bull, and Topology arrived at the hospital again, they were informed that Lijie had already completed her discharge procedures and left. It was clear to everyone where Lijie had gone. In this situation, if Lijie didn't take a look at the cliff where Xin Yi and Roxy had jumped, she wouldn't be the Lijie who appeared cold on the outside but warm on the inside, devoted solely to Xin Yi. Originally, Qin Dali had brought Big Bull and Topology to the hospital to discuss the next steps for Beng Hu Camp. Although Xin Yi had left, Lijie was still there; in their hearts, Lijie was indeed their sister-in-law, and such an important matter naturally required her decision.
However, now that Lijie had also left, the next course of action for Beng Hu Camp could only be decided by the three of them. Qin Dali had only shared the news of Xin Yi's jump with Big Bull and Topology; the other brothers in Beng Hu Camp were still unaware. After returning to the camp, the three of them locked themselves in a room and discussed for a long time without reaching a conclusion. The key issue was that Big Bull adamantly refused to agree to withdraw their troops back to Heavenly Pride Nation. Upon hearing about Xin Yi's jump, Big Bull's first reaction was to lead people to Yin-Yang Mountain to kill all the guards there and avenge Brother Xin. If it weren't for Qin Dali and Topology stopping him, he would have likely already rushed over.
In the end, it was Qin Dali who told him that they would go to the hospital tomorrow morning to hear Lijie's decision first. Only then did Big Bull spend a sleepless night and rush to drag Qin Dali and Topology to the hospital as soon as dawn broke. But now that Lijie had also left, Big Bull's opinion would not change anymore. He shouted loudly with a flushed face: "If you are afraid of death and would rather let Brother Xin's great revenge go unavenged, then you can take the brothers back home! I, Big Bull, am definitely not someone who forgets kindness! Even if it costs me my life, I will kill those damned guards! For Brother Xin's revenge!"
In fact, Qin Dali and Topology were not afraid of death or ungrateful; their determination to avenge Brother Xin was no less than Big Bull's. However, they had to consider the bigger picture since over a hundred brothers' lives were in their hands. These brothers were all part of Brother Xin's hard work; even if Brother Xin were making the decision himself, he certainly wouldn't want his brothers to die in vain just for revenge. Therefore, they advocated for withdrawing their team back into Heavenly Pride Nation first and discussing revenge later. Seeing Big Bull so stubborn made Qin Dali unable to hold back his anger. He said to Big Bull: "Big Bull! Do you think only you and Brother Xin have such deep feelings? Let me tell you, none of us care for Brother Xin any less than you do! But what can we do in this situation? Yang Wencai has already issued an eviction order out of fear of being implicated; he has clearly drawn a line with us. If our more than a hundred brothers continue to stay here, we might very well become food for Guokan or Taiwan Military! Can we just watch as Brother Xin's hard-built team collapses in a foreign land? I believe even if Brother Xin were here making the decision himself, he would absolutely not approve of what you're doing!"
"I don't care! I don't understand all those grand principles!" Big Bull stubbornly refused to change his mind and continued shouting loudly: "I only know that Brother Xin treated me well; he not only took me in but also fed me well! Even... even gave me unlimited beef! So if something happens to Brother Xin, no one can stop me from avenging him! Dali brother, don’t say any more about this! If you keep talking about it, I’ll fall out with you!"
"Fall out?!" Qin Dali was also furious and inadvertently raised his voice: "Big Bull! Try falling out with me! I am Beng Hu Camp's Camp Commander! You must obey my orders!"
"Camp Commander? Is being a Camp Commander so impressive? I am personally appointed by Brother Xin as the Disciplinary Officer!" In his rage, Big Bull did not forget this proud identity of his and retorted loudly: "Do you know what a Disciplinary Officer is? It’s equivalent to the Disciplinary Committee! You as Camp Commander are corrupt and embezzling; I can still manage you! I can arrest you! And execute you!" Wow, Big Bull even brought up the Disciplinary Committee; it seemed he had learned quite a bit during this time—what talent!
"Alright... fine then, Big Bull!" Qin Dali laughed angrily: "Hahaha... I'm corrupt? Tell me where I am corrupt? Did I stop feeding you or not give you enough beef? As long as you point out one thing, I'll have you executed!"
"Well... that’s not true," Big Bull scratched his head awkwardly: "You haven't cut military rations... but Dali brother, if we don't avenge Brother Xin, I won't even enjoy eating beef! Brother Xin treated me so well; I really can't accept it!"
At this moment, Topology finally found an opportunity to speak up. He winked at Qin Dali and said: "Hey, you two should stop arguing; continuing like this won't lead anywhere. How about this: let's implement democracy and vote on whether we should withdraw back to Heavenly Pride Nation or stay here for Brother Xin’s revenge—minority obeys majority. Do you have any objections?"
"No way! This matter is not something that requires voting at all!" Qin Dali knew Big Bull's temperament well; at this moment if he opposed it, Big Bull would definitely support it. So he deliberately rejected: "What democracy? There's no need for that at all!"
Sure enough, upon hearing Qin Dali oppose it, Big Bull immediately shouted: "Yes! We should implement democracy and vote! Minority obeys majority! Now they say whatever parliament uses this method; I think it's good! Hey! Just so we're clear—if you disagree with democracy then you're corrupt!"
Seeing that Big Bull fell for it, Qin Dali pretended to be helpless and said: "Fine then; let’s implement your so-called democracy and vote. But Big Bull, let me make it clear beforehand: if the result of the vote is to withdraw back to Heavenly Pride Nation, you can't cause trouble for me anymore; just obediently carry out the democratic result!"
"Alright! Big Bull who do you think I am? I am Instructor Niu, the discipline officer of Beng Hu Camp! What I say counts!" Big Bull replied confidently, but then he quickly added, "However, since we are going to implement democracy with a show of hands, how can it just be the three of us? If we are truly being democratic, then all the brothers of Beng Hu Camp should participate in the vote; that would be real democracy."
"Huh? All the brothers of Beng Hu Camp participating in the vote?" Qin Dali and Topology clearly did not expect Big Bull to come up with such a move. How did the usually dull-witted Big Bull suddenly become so clever? No wonder he was so confident earlier; could it be that Big Bull had planned this all along?
"Yes! It is essential for all the brothers of Beng Hu Camp to participate in the vote! Every brother in our camp has a good relationship with Brother Xin. Didn't you just say that no one has a better bond with Brother Xin than I do? If that's the case, everyone should be involved!" Big Bull asserted firmly. "What do you think, Brother Dali? You wouldn't actually want to engage in favoritism, would you? Alright, I know Brother Dali is a man of his word, so let's vote now. I've already gathered the team; Brothers! Come in!" As soon as Big Bull finished speaking, the door was pushed open, revealing rows of solemn-faced brothers from Beng Hu Camp standing outside, staring at the three inside.
Qin Dali and Topology exchanged glances. They had always thought of Big Bull as just a big oaf, and they had mistakenly believed they had successfully fooled him. But it turned out that Big Bull had been playing dumb all along; he had already arranged for all the brothers from Beng Hu Lian to gather outside. His loud speech earlier was likely intended for the brothers outside to hear their conversation. Cunning! Devious! Who said that being big means being careless? Even Zhang Yide could thread a needle; this Big Bull is quite sly!
At this point, Qin Dali could no longer hold his ground. Since the Brothers were already aware of the situation, it would be unreasonable not to let them participate in the vote. However, he could still guide them appropriately. So, Qin Dali stepped outside and stood in front of the group, took a deep breath, and said loudly, "Brothers! You have all heard what we discussed earlier. Since that's the case, I won't hide anything from you. Our Third-in-Command is currently out of contact, and the authorities in Guokan have given us an ultimatum to withdraw from the Guokan District. Now we face two options: one is to confront Guokan and the Taiwan Authorities, continuing to hide within Taiwan while waiting for news from our Third-in-Command, and the other is to retreat back to the Heavenly Pride Nation, then find other ways to locate our Third-in-Command..."
"Brother Dali, let me take over," interrupted Big Bull, his voice booming before Qin Dali could finish. He stepped forward and waved his hand loudly, saying, "Brothers! Now it's time for us to make a choice: will we be men who stand tall or cowardly turtles hiding their heads? It's up to everyone's choice! As for me, I won't preach any grand principles; those who are willing to follow me to take down those bastards at Yin-Yang Mountain and avenge Brother Xin, raise your hands!" Despite claiming he wouldn't speak well, this speech by Big Bull was quite impactful. He immediately captured everyone's attention by contrasting standing tall with cowardice. In truth, even if he hadn't said that, the brothers of Beng Hu Camp would have felt compelled to stay; for them, Xin Yi was not just their boss or third-in-command but also their spiritual pillar and idol. Therefore, even if it meant facing danger head-on, they would not hesitate.
"Revenge! Revenge! Revenge!" Over a hundred brothers from Beng Hu Camp raised their fists without exception and shouted loudly in response, their voices echoing through the valley and reaching the skies!
