With a wave of his hand, Feng Shan and his four men jumped onto their snowmobiles, ready to depart.

The women approached, their expressions deepening with concern as they saw Feng Shan and his men, all heavily armed. Jenny was the first to speak. "Feng, where are you all going?"
Feng Shan knew better.
If he told Jenny the truth, she would only worry more and might even try to stop him from going. So, he answered evasively.
"I'm heading to Noiksoth Village. They've got a little dispute that I need to go investigate."
'A dispute?
One that requires this many weapons?
Does he take me for a fool?
