The village chief coming to me in such a hurry made me feel a bit surprised.

After all, ever since the death of Dalong's family, the villagers were even more vigilant of me.

When they saw me, it was as though they had seen a monster.

The whispers that I could hear on a daily basis had also decreased to a level where I couldn't hear them.

However, my eyes couldn't fool people. I could feel the loathing in the eyes of the villagers. Their hatred towards me.

Hatred came from fear. When fear was compressed to a certain degree, hatred would be completely released.

This was human instinct, which meant that I now looked safe.

But when the villagers' fear of me had accumulated to a certain extent, some unforeseen events might occur.

It was very likely that these villagers would do something out of line.

Liu Songxian's death had been a mystery up until now. The blood inside the wooden house, it was obvious that the villagers would not be able to see it.

However, no one cared about it. This was very strange. Could it be that the people here were truly so cold?

When I saw the Village Chief rushing over, I asked.

"What's wrong, Village Head?"

"Stop asking for now. There's no time to talk, hurry up and come with me. Your home …" Something has happened to your family! "

As I spoke, the village head was about to come over and pull me away. I subconsciously dodged for a bit, and then said to Lingling:

"Follow the village chief!"

The village chief was stunned for a moment: "You're bringing Lingling along too?"

I nodded. The Village Chief didn't say anything and just said,

"Alright, take it with you."

With that, the village chief led the way ahead while Lingling and I followed closely behind.

The Village Chief's stamina is indeed not very good, she is almost the same as Lingling and us.

When we reached the middle of the village, the village chief paused and panted.

Looking at how the Village Chief was in a hurry, I felt a little puzzled. After all, the Village Chief knew that something had happened to my house.

Besides, I can vaguely see that the Village Head has ill intentions towards me and is full of evil intentions.

Bringing me back at this moment might be a conspiracy.

But since he called me, there was a chance that something really big had happened, so I decided to come back.

Furthermore, I had a plan in mind. The Village Head's health isn't that good, he isn't like a young man. If he really has some evil intentions, I should be able to escape.

The Village Chief panted heavily. Just as he was about to reach my doorstep, he changed his direction and said.

"This way."

"Where to?"

I asked.

At this time, the village chief approached me. He pointed to a direction and said,

"Didn't you see …"

The Village Head's finger made my pupils contract.

It isn't that the village head points in any direction, but the direction that the village head points in reminds me of something.

Something I've been ignoring.

So, at this moment, I looked at the direction where the village chief's finger was pointing at and was slightly stunned.

At the same time, I saw something. On the wrist pointed out by the village chief, there was a purplish bruise.

That mark was very obvious, it was made with Marble.

My pupils contracted, could it be, the village chief is actually Liu Songxian's killer?!

Then, did the Village Head see me that day? What was he going to do now?

I subconsciously wanted Lingling, who was behind me, to leave first. The Village Chief was even more dangerous than I thought.

But at this moment, it was already too late. I suddenly felt a sour smell from my nose entering my nose.

Looking at the Village Chief again, I snicker. At some point, I don't know when, but I have a handful of leaves in my hand, which I placed under my nose.

I know this leaf. I don't know its exact name, but the smell it emits can make people feel dizzy.

In the past, a doctor would use these kinds of leaves for anesthesia.

Thinking of this, I frowned slightly, but my hair had started to float under my feet, as though I had lost my center of gravity.

I had been on guard against the Village Head for a while now, but when he was giving me pointers, I suddenly had a thought. Furthermore, I saw the scar on his wrist.

Because of this short period of distraction, he had been set up by the Village Chief.

At this moment, the Village Chief chuckled in my ear, as if he was showing me that he had succeeded.

Right now, I don't even have the strength to turn my head and let Lingling escape. As for Lingling, who was following behind me, I didn't even see the leaf in the Village Chief's hand.

The village chief supported me with one hand and looked at Lingling at the same time. He covered up my current state very well, like an old hand.

When I fell into the hands of the village chief, I could only resign myself to my fate. However, Lingling cannot die together with me!

I wanted to scream, but my whole body was paralyzed as if I was drunk. Even my reaction had become sluggish, much less I could not shout out.

Under the village chief's command with one hand, my legs were actually unable to obey his commands, and I subconsciously stumbled and followed behind him.

He was clearly just the village head of a small mountain village. It was possible that he had never left the village in his entire life. Yet, he was like an experienced criminal. At this moment, he unexpectedly displayed a strange experience.

The Village Chief led me forward, but luckily Lingling was smart, as if she had already realized something, and chased after me as she walked, as if wanting to check my current state.

The village chief obviously wouldn't let Lingling succeed, he kept dodging. If an old fox like him really wanted to hide, then it definitely wouldn't be possible for a child like Lingling to see through him.

The village chief brought us to a warehouse not too far away, which was his own.

It wasn't that far away, but most of the villagers had already gone up the mountain to work. Since they were in the warehouse, there shouldn't be any sounds coming from it.

In this warehouse, I felt my dizziness become even more severe and my vision became blurry.

Faintly, I seemed to see a ferocious face with mottled blood on it.

That Face... It was the mask the murderer wore that day.

In that case, the culprit was the village chief. There could be no mistake about it!

Although I don't know what kind of enmity he has with Liu Songxian, I suspect that it's very possible that the words Liu Songxian said that day, which caused Dalong's mother to die from being stimulated, was also the reason behind the Village Chief's killing intent.

This village really has many secrets. The water here is so deep that I, who grew up here, can't even imagine it.

The village chief helped me sit against the wall. Because it was a warehouse, it was surrounded by fodder, food, and potatoes.

The moment he put me down, the village chief rushed towards Lingling and placed the leaf in his hand directly over Lingling's mouth and nose, causing Lingling to instantly go limp.

Seeing that something had happened to Lingling, my pupils contracted. But right now, no matter what, I couldn't move at all, I didn't even have the will to struggle.

The village chief was clever enough to not knock Lingling out outside.

After all, if he were to faint outside, with his physical strength, there would be no way for him to bring us back. If he were to be discovered by the other villagers, there might be some problems.

That was why he chose this method.

Looking at the Village Head's skinny body displaying such a crazy posture, fear welled up in my heart.

Lingling was also dragged by the village chief to my side, and sat beside me. Maybe it was because I was young, but Lingling's paralysis was far greater than mine, so much that she couldn't even open her eyes.

I glared at the Village Head, but he immediately broke out in laughter.

"Xiao Die, don't look at me like that.

Right now, the villagers are treating you as a thorn in their side. As the leader of a village, I have to think for everyone's sake, so … You have to die.

That night when I killed Liu Songxian, I heard your voice as well. You saw everything, right?

Be it in the public or the private, you have to die.

Since I have to die, I might as well let myself have a good time before I die.

You know, that woman of mine, I'm sick of her now.

Originally, Xiao Die, you were so beautiful, I couldn't bear to kill you … "

As I said that, the Village Head's hands are already on my shoulders.
