The villagers shouted in agitation as soon as they entered.
The time is up. Shouldn’t you guys give us an explanation?”
“That’s right. Don’t even think about denying it. Hurry up and give us a satisfactory answer.”
Zhao Dahe stood at the front of the villagers and did not utter a word. However, he did not stop the villagers from shouting.
The Black Guardian stepped forward and said, “After investigation, I have confirmed that the black-robed men didn’t do it. Someone else did it.” The Black Guardian’s words caused the villagers to erupt in fury. “I knew they were stalling for time and thinking of ways to shirk responsibility.”
“That’s right. What investigation results? It’s obvious that you’re biased towards your own people.”
“Village Chief, say something quickly. We can’t let this matter rest.”
Zhao Dahe, who had been silent all this while, raised his head. For some reason, he felt a strong sense of oppression that made him feel somewhat breathless.
Zhao Dahe suddenly asked as if he had made up his mind, “Is this the result of your investigation?”
The Black Guardian said without any change in his expression, “Yes. The black-robed men did not do it. As for who did it, we will continue to investigate.”
“Investigate? And in the end, there will be no conclusion?”
“That won’t happen.”
The villagers yelled with a scornful snort, “What we do here is still up to you isn’t it?”.
“That’S right. You guys put it so nicely previously, saying that as long as we follow the rules here, we will be able to live in peace. Now that we have followed the rules, do you still treat us as humans?”
The noise from the arguing made the Black Guardian’s face increasingly darker. The bloodthirsty genes that had been suppressed were already clamoring frantically.
“Then what do you guys want?”
The villagers thought that the Black Guardian had given in on this matter. Thus, they boldly said, “We want to make our own decisions. Since this place has been given to us to live in, it’s ours. You can’t restrict our freedom to enter and exit. We can go wherever we want. You can’t interfere.”
“That’s right. The sweet potatoes given every day are also too little. You have to double the amount.”
“The land that we develop every day should be given to us. You guys can’t take it.”
The more these villagers spoke, the more overboard they went. They were simply taking the gifts bestowed by Su Ying and the rest as their god-given right.
Mrs. Zhou had also tagged along today. When she heard what these villagers said, she was so angry that her body trembled. These people were really shameless! They really treated this place as their territory.
Su Ying stood next to the Black Guardian and looked icily at those people.
Two years ago, other people had also come to the northern wilderness. She had also told her people to accept them. Most of those people still followed the rules after being accepted and gradually integrated into everyone’s lives.
This was the first time she had met such a crafty group of people.
“Zhao Dahe, I’ve already given you a chance. I didn’t expect you to disappoint me.” Su Ying slowly stepped forward, and her blazing gaze landed on Zhao Dahe nonchalantly.
She gave him the chance to tell the truth to the Black Guardian, but he chose to hide it in exchange for what he felt was more beneficial to them. Just this point alone had crossed her bottom line.
Zhao Dahe’s heart almost jumped out of his mouth when he heard the voice. He looked at Su Ying in surprise. It was a completely unfamiliar face, but he would recognize this voice even if he died because her presence was too strong. It was so strong that no one could ignore her existence no matter where they were.
Zhao Dahe suddenly thought of that big sister that Naughty Dog mentioned.
Could that person be Su Ying?
This speculation made Zhao Dahe’s hair stand on end.
“Bring them in.”
With the issuance of Su Ying’s order, the black-robed men grabbed the Li brothers and dragged them to the front.
The villagers of Shangyao Village were very puzzled. Li Cuihua immediately jumped out of the crowd when she saw them.
“What are you guys doing? Why did you capture my son for no reason?”
Two black-robed men stepped forward and stopped Li Cuihua.
Li Hai and his brother had their hands and feet tied, but their faces did not seem to have any injuries.
“City Lord, spare us! City Lord, spare us! We know our mistakes! We honestly know our mistakes…”
The two brothers cried and begged for mercy as soon as they arrived, making everyone present very puzzled.
“Tell them all the stupid things you’ve done.”
Li Hai cried and wailed with a face full of remorse, “It… it was Brother Fu and I who humiliated Er Ni. We… were afraid of being found out so we put on black clothes and pretended to be the black-robed men in secret. Even… even if someone discovered us, they wouldn’t recognize us.”
“It… it was us. We did it…We didn’t expect to attract the black-robed men’s attention, nor did we expect the matter to blow up so much. City Lord, please spare our lives. City Lord, please spare our lives…”
The two brothers kept kowtowing endlessly.
The villagers were very surprised, but after thinking for a while, they felt that it was not entirely impossible.
Li Hai and his brother used to be thugs in the village. They committed all kinds of evil deeds, so it was not strange for them to do such a thing.
Of all the things they could have done at any time, they had to do this at this critical moment. Wasn’t this causing trouble for them?
“Li Hai, were you two brothers forced to confess under torture?”
“That’s right. You can speak up boldly. We’ll back you up.”
Some villagers still did not believe it. At this juncture, they were even willing to believe in the character of these two brothers.
Li Ha! burst into tears at once. “It was us. It was really us. Er Ni scratched me in fright a few times that night. I still have marks on my hands.”
A black-robed man stepped forward and pulled up Li Hai’s arm. There were indeed a few scratches with scabs on it.
Er Ni’s face instantly turned pale when she saw the scratches.
She remembered now. That night, she had instinctively excluded a lot of information because she was frightened. Now that she thought about it seriously, she remembered the other party’s voice.
“It’s them. It’s them!” Er Ni said with a pale face.
“It’s these two beasts!”
This time, the expressions of the villagers of Shangyao Village changed at once.
“We… we were also possessed by evil spirits. Please forgive us, City Lord.” Su Ying’s expression was still icy. She looked at the two men as if they were insignificant ants.
“The two of you attempted to rape an innocent woman and even planned to frame the black-robed men for the deed. Your intentions are worthy of death!” “City Lord, spare me! City Lord, spare me!”
“Drag them away and beat them to death with the pole.”
As soon as Su Ying said this, the villagers’ faces turned pale.
Zhao Dahe knew that if Li Hai and the others were really killed, their peaceful days would be shattered.
“City Lord, the two of them are indeed despicable, but their crimes do not warrant death…”
“Their crimes don’t warrant death? Their actions were premeditated. They intended to change into the clothes of the black-robed men to commit evil. This is clearly an attempt to sow discord between you guys and the black-robed men. Their intentions are so sinister that they deserve to be chopped into pieces. Drag them away!”
The black-robed men brought Li Hai and the other man to the courtyard and pinned them on a bench before executing the punishment.
“Argh! Save me, Village Chief! Save me…”
“We know we were wrong. We honestly know we were wrong…”
The cries of pain gradually died down. The expressions of the villagers of
Shangyao Village changed multiple times.
This pole not only hit Li Hai and the other guy.. It was also a slap in their faces!
