The next morning, the three of them discuss the events of the previous night. They hear rumors that feng cang's entire family has been executed. Only one brat escaped from what they heard, and joined the "Yaotian army" . The brat's father is a traitor to the country, and the brat is afraid to die so many brothers will die instead. The three men drink and discuss the rumors. One of the brats is covered in bandages, the other is wearing an eye patch, and they can all testify that they heard the rumor. They all agree that the brat was afraid of death, and that he joined the army because he wanted to "stand up" for his brothers. They also agree that he was a traitor. The pipe breaks, and wuxie worries that important evidence will be lost with feng's death. He tells wupeng and wugu that they should fulfill their duties as well, since the rumors are flying around. He also tells them that each of them will receive twenty hits for actively seeking conflict, and those who do not will receive double hits. He asks wucheng if he wants to spare the brat earlier, but he did not want to kill him too. He wants to repay his "grievances will kindness." .
