Wanjie Village Chief

"How did you figure it out? If you hadn't been under my nose all the time, I would even suspect that you broke the dam." Wang Jia told Lin Chi frankly that he did save his father anyway. disease, and also helped the people in the village, whether it is superstitious or not is not important.

Wang Tong coughed loudly. Lin Chi knew that he wanted to attract Wang Jia's attention, so he backed up a few steps cooperatively and walked towards the crowd next to him.

"Do you have many antiques here?" Lin Chi asked the pregnant woman in a low voice. She admired Lin Chi quite a lot.

The woman frowned and thought for a while, then shook her head and said, "That was all a long time ago. Nowadays, robbing graves is not enough to go to jail. No one wants to do it. Besides, it's a bit unlucky."

Lin Chi squeezed his way into the crowd, carefully staying away from Wang Jia and her family. He lowered his head and continued to ask the woman, "Are there any antiques in Wang Jia's house?"

The woman looked at him suspiciously and shook her head. She had never heard of it, and if there were really antiques, she would not preside over them in the dilapidated yard.

He nodded in agreement. When they were in the Wang family, they never mentioned the need to appraise antiques. Could it be that Wang Jia really had other plans?
Lin Chi's eyes kept falling on Wang Jia. She was busy taking care of her father now, so she didn't realize that Lin Chi was different, but Wang Tong was talking and laughing by her side all the time.

In the evening, the dark clouds finally dissipated, and the flood water receded slowly. Everyone began to return home in twos and threes. There were fewer and fewer people standing on the high ground.

"I don't think there is any danger. We should finish the antique appraisal immediately and leave here." Lin Chi walked to Wang Tong's side and looked at Wang Jia and his family seriously.

When Wang Tong heard that he was going to leave, he turned his head reluctantly and glanced at Lin Chi. He and Wang Jia hadn't gotten into the mood yet, so he was leaving, so this time he might just be happy for nothing.

Wang Jia, who was fiddled with the blanket with her head down, suddenly slowed down when she heard the word "Antique". She nervously raised her head to look at Lin Chi and Wang Tong, then lowered her head and continued to fiddle with the blanket.

Lin Chi immediately noticed the change in Wang Jia's expression, and he was convinced that there was something wrong with her invitation. As for who she was working for, he didn't know anything.

"Antiques? What antiques?" Wang Jia's father looked at his daughter suspiciously. This was the first time he heard them mention antiques. Wang Jia hastily covered his father's lap with a blanket.

"Okay! I also think I should go back. I can't live in this place at night." She immediately stood up and pulled her father up with a smile. Wang Tong just stupidly helped them walk home.

Lin Chi followed silently. There was still a lot of water on the ground. The few of them had a hard time walking, and Wang Jia's father almost fell to the ground.

Wang Tong squatted down immediately, and said proudly: "I will carry you on my back, so that your legs can recover quickly."

The old man looked at Wang Tong moved, but still shook his head. He didn't want to trouble Lin Chi and the others again, but Wang Jia was not polite at all, and pulled his father to lie on top of Wang Tong, so they walked away faster.

When he returned home, Lin Chi deliberately stayed outside to observe the terrain. After the flood, the road was muddy, and few people should be able to enter here.

So Lin Chi thought they were safe for the time being, but after the sun came out, it might be difficult to say the result. He felt very helpless when he saw that Wang Tongtong didn't notice at all and was still courting him.

"Take out the antiques for us to see. It's been a day, and you haven't even done business yet." Lin Chi said directly to Wang Jia. He looked at the living room, but there was nothing that could be called an antique.

"This... the antiques are buried in the mountains, so you can't enter the mountains until the weather clears." Wang Jia smiled softly, and took Wang Tong outside to help drain the water.

Only Lin Chi was left standing alone in the living room. If it was a good excuse, it was not for the antiques, but to wait for the reinforcements to arrive.

But what made Lin Chi feel embarrassed was that he was also trapped here and couldn't leave, so even if he knew that Wang Jia had a problem, he had nowhere to go.

"Wang Tong, don't get too close to Wang Jia. She is lying to us. I suspect that she is behind the scenes to lure us here on purpose." Lin Chi whispered to Wang Tong after hearing the door of Wang Jia's room closed at night. Said that before these words came out, he had considered for a long time, but as he expected, Wang Tong immediately exploded with anger.

He stood barefoot beside Lin Chi's bed, and lifted the quilt from Lin Chi's body. There were only a few beams of moonlight in the window. Even so, Lin Chi could still see the hatred in Wang Tong's eyes.

"Don't slander him. Although you are my elder brother, you can't say that about Wang Jia." Wang Tong's eyes were shining brightly, but it made Lin Chi feel the slightest chill.

Wang Tong was short of breath, and it seemed like a huge boulder was pressing on his chest. If someone else said so, he would have punched him, at least half his life would have been lost, but this person was Lin Chi, and he was struggling inside.

Lin Chi knew that he shouldn't have accused Wang Jia without evidence, but he was worried that Wang Tong would fall into the trap of a beauty trick, so he had to remind him.

But now it seems that his reminder is still a bit late, Wang Tong has clearly fallen into it, and even Bi Yunlong doesn't pay attention to him.

"Calm down and speak slowly." Lin Chi got up and pulled him to the side of the bed to sit down. At this moment, it was a thankless effort to confront Wang Tong.

"You heard it too. Today I asked about Antique, and she said she was in the mountains. How is this possible?" Lin Chi pressed Wang Tong's shoulder, and he already felt Wang Tong's excitement.

Wang Tong turned to look at Lin Chi, and asked coldly, "What's wrong with hiding in the mountains? I'll hide in the mountains too."

ah?This time it was Lin Chi's turn to be dumbfounded. Wouldn't someone be afraid of someone taking something as valuable as an antique hidden in the mountains?It's normal if it's hidden in the cellar, after all, it's in your own home.

Wang Tong stood up suddenly, ignored Lin Chi, closed the door with a slam, and walked out. Lin Chi could hear the sound of hurried footsteps slowly going away.

"Oh! If I had known, I wouldn't have gone to this village with him." Lin Chi simply lay on the bed and continued to sleep. These two days are the most dangerous. He is not sure when Wang Jia's reinforcements will arrive, but they will definitely arrive soon.

After Wang Tong went out, he wandered around the village alone. He knew that Lin Chi said that because he didn't want Wang Jia, so he was completely at ease with Wang Jia.

However, Wang Tong also felt that it was unreasonable for Wang Jia not to take out the antiques for appraisal, but he hoped that Wang Jia was innocent and there was no need to lie to them.

The sound of Wang Tong going out also alarmed Wang Jia, but she didn't go out, just lying on the bed silently, thinking about the next action.

She didn't fall asleep slowly until early in the morning. The next day, the sky was clear, but the wind was so strong that it almost knocked down the big trees on the roadside.
