The boss traveled through time in the end times: The prince was beaten by the princess again
Chapter 56 Strange Villagers
"I am a villager from Xiaoyuan Village nearby. Although the village is not wealthy, the people are simple and kind. My family makes a living by hunting, so our home is located at the westernmost part of the village, close to the forest. This has saved the lives of my family of three!"
When Li Dabing said this, he couldn't help but wipe away his tears. It is said that men don't shed tears easily, but they just haven't been sad. At this moment, Li Dabing was extremely sad!
After calming down, he continued, "That day, I went up the mountain to hunt as usual, and my wife stayed at home to take care of my old mother and daughter. Everything was normal when I first went up the mountain. When it was getting dark, I was carrying a rabbit and preparing to go home. On the way, I met Erzhu from the village. He was staggering in front of me. I called him but he ignored me. I saw that he looked like he was drunk, so I stepped forward and patted his shoulder. Unexpectedly, he turned around and wanted to bite me. Fortunately, I reacted quickly and dodged. I saw purple lines on his face and neck, and his lips were black, which was very scary. I thought he might have been poisoned by a snake! But the strange thing was that he kept trying to bite me. I was anxious, so I threw the rabbit in my hand and ran away. I thought he would continue to chase me, but he didn't catch up. I turned my head and saw that he grabbed the rabbit I threw out and ate it raw. He looked up at me and his mouth was full of blood and rabbit hair. I was so scared that I quickly ran down the mountain."
Li Dabing raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead and continued: "I thought I would be safe after escaping down the mountain, and thought about looking for someone to save Erzhu. But when I got down the mountain, I saw many villagers turned into Erzhu, biting and grabbing people everywhere in the village! Even the animals in the village suffered, being sucked blood and bitten. It was very scary. Because my home is relatively remote, I was lucky to escape, but my elderly mother was not able to escape when I was escaping."
Li Dabing burst into tears when he talked about his mother, and both mother and daughter were crying with sadness!
"I couldn't stay in the village any longer. I had to flee with my family. I thought we would be safe once we entered the city, but they chased us relentlessly. They turned into monsters with amazing strength! I dealt with a few along the way, but there were too many of them, and they were all my former neighbors, so I couldn't do anything to them. But I didn't expect the city gate to be closed! So I had to disturb the girl!"
Li Dabing finished telling his story and the things happening in their village in one breath! He originally planned to go into the city to hide, and report to the authorities to let the officials solve the matter!
After listening to Li Dadan's words, Lin Qingwan was also very curious. How could the whole village become like that? Who was so bold?
Judging from the people Lin Qingwan had just killed, they were already poisoned to the bone marrow and were completely hopeless. What drove them to do this was the poisonous insects in their bodies, but this place was still a long way from the capital. It was rare for a whole village to be infested with poisonous insects. What was the purpose of the person behind the poisoning? Perhaps the person who poisoned this place had some connection with the person who poisoned my eldest brother.
Lin Qingwan judged that this matter was not just aimed at such a small village, and there might be a big conspiracy behind the scenes. If this matter was related to her eldest brother, then she would take care of it, and perhaps she could find the murderer who killed her eldest brother.
Thinking of this, Lin Qingwan looked at Li Dadan and said, "Brother Li, do you want to save the people in the village? Maybe there are still many people who can be saved."
Li Dabing listened to Lin Qingwan's words, glanced at his wife and children, and then answered with a firm look in his eyes: "Save! My ancestors all lived in Xiaoyuan Village, which is my home. I can't watch them die in such an unclear way. Without the village, where is my home..."
"It's just..." Li Dabing suddenly fell silent.
"Brother Li, just speak frankly!" Seeing that he had some concerns, Lin Qingwan asked directly.
"I know the girl is capable, but I'm afraid it won't work with just the two of us. It doesn't matter if I die, but if the girl is implicated...and my wife and children." Li Dabing felt a little embarrassed when he said this.
Lin Qingwan knew his concerns and said to Li Dadan: "Don't worry, Brother Li, we will go to the city tomorrow. You take care of your wife and children, and I will find someone to go back to the village together."
Li Dabing nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and now he felt relieved.
The bonfire had been burning all night, and the temperature in the morning was a little cold. As soon as the city gate opened, Lin Qingwan and Li Dadan's family of three entered the city. Li Dadan went to find an inn to arrange for his wife and daughter to stay first. Lin Qingwan went straight to the residence of Xuan Ye and others.
Fulai Inn
When Lin Qingwan found Xuan Ye and the others and told them what happened last night, everyone was very curious and wanted to go with Li Qingwan. In the end, Li Qingwan decided to take Xuan Ye, Xia He and Chun Tao with her, and the others waited at the inn.
"Miss, I think we should inform the prefect here. They will have to do the follow-up work after handling this matter." Xuan Ye expressed his thoughts, and Lin Qingwan suddenly felt that this idea was good. Moreover, within the jurisdiction of the prefect, such an incredible thing happened, and he was to blame. He should handle this matter! Moreover, the city gates here were closed so early at night, there must be some reason, maybe the prefect knew about this matter a long time ago.
"Xuan Ye, accompany me to find the prefect. The others will wait in the inn!" Lin Qingwan instructed everyone and left the inn with Xuan Ye!
"We have to take another person with us, he is the villager I rescued on the road, he knows best what happened," Lin Qingwan said to Xuan Ye. They came to another inn. Li Dabing had already arranged his family and had been waiting for Lin Qingwan's arrival. After saying goodbye to his wife and daughter, he and Lin Qingwan left the inn together.
When they arrived at the government gate, it was almost noon, but there was no guard at the gate! The gate was closed! This was very strange.
"Miss, what should we do? It looks like there is no one in this government office!" Xuan Ye asked in confusion.
Lin Qingwan looked at the bustling crowd on the street and came to a big brother selling buns, "Boss, give me two buns!"
The big brother who was selling buns wrapped the buns for Lin Qingwan with a smile. Lin Qingwan took the buns and asked, "Boss, why is your government office still closed at almost noon in broad daylight? There is no guard at the door?"
"Miss, you are from another place, right? You don't know, the son of the magistrate in the government office has recently suffered from some strange disease. He is afraid of the sun and goes crazy at night. He looks scary! Everyone says that his son is possessed by an evil spirit?! He is possessed by a ghost! Otherwise, the magistrate in the government office has invited so many doctors, but none of them could cure him." The boss came up to Lin Qingwan and said cautiously.
"Then, why is the city gate closed so early? Does the boss know?" Lin Qingwan asked her doubts again.
"This story started a month ago." The boss moistened his throat, looked around, and made sure no one was paying attention to this side, then continued: "A month ago, another old beggar came into the city. At first, there was nothing worthy of attention, but later, the beggar's lips turned purple, and his body was covered with purple lines, which was very scary. He fainted not far from the gate of the government office. It just so happened that the son of the government official came back from school and saw the old beggar fainted, so he brought water to feed the old beggar. Unexpectedly, the old beggar just woke up and bit the arm of the son of the government official. The old beggar was like crazy, biting people everywhere! The government official sent someone to lock up the old beggar. But after his son was bitten, he became strange and became what he is now. Later, the government official notified the people in the city to return to the city early, and the city gate was closed early!"
"I see. Thank you, boss!" Lin Qingwan took out a handful of black coins from her sleeve and threw them to the boss, who immediately smiled happily!
"It seems that we have to go to this government office. This matter is very serious!" Lin Qingwan didn't expect that this matter had happened in the city so early. She always felt that something big was going to happen. Thinking of this, Lin Qingwan frowned.
