Traveling through ancient times to survive

The next day, the camp was in an uproar. No one could believe that Liu Laoshi would dare to poison.

"Liu Laoshi is really cruel. He stayed up late at night and dragged his sick body to the foot of the mountain to scoop up dirty water. He was not afraid of falling into the water!"

"You can't judge a person by his appearance. Why do you still call him honest? I think he should be called vicious."

"The village chief was so good to his family, but he still poisoned them. If any of you have had an argument with him, I advise you to sleep with your eyes open for the next few days."

Liu Laoshi's neighbor's face changed instantly. Yes, he had quarreled with him before. Although it was not a big deal, with his petty mind, who knows if he still holds a grudge? He must not be allowed to come back!

The neighbor shouted, "There is no place for such a wicked man in our village! Do you think you don't have to be afraid because you have nothing to do with him? Don't daydream. He didn't even let his benefactor go, so how can he let you go?"

The villagers were furious: "Yes! We must not let him go!"

The villagers were outraged and demanded that the man be severely punished.

Of course, the village chief did not want to keep such an evil person in the camp. If he was expelled immediately, wouldn't he become even more unscrupulous?

"Everyone, please be quiet. I know that everyone wants to punish Liu Laoshi. He is extremely vicious. If we kick him out now, who can guarantee that he won't sneak back to take revenge? A thief can only steal for a thousand days, but you can never be on guard against thieves for a thousand days. Now is not the time yet!"

The villagers were unwilling to do so: "Village Chief, are we just going to let it go?"

The village chief shook his head. If he succeeded in poisoning her, he would have to worry about his old wife and seven children being able to resist. How could he let him go for such a murderous feud?

"Of course not. It will be time to punish you when the flood recedes."

The village chief's consideration made sense. Liu Laoshi was now a mad dog. If he was let out, there would be no peace in the camp. The villagers had no choice but to agree.

"Then wait a moment, but what about his wife and children? I dare not associate with his wife."

"That's right, people from the same family are like one another. With such a poisonous snake around, who can sleep well?"

"Drive out his wife and children!"

The villagers nodded and drove Liu Laoshi out. What if his family members held a grudge and followed his example?

The village chief calmed down the angry crowd and said, "The first person who discovered that something was wrong was Liu Laoshi's wife. It was also his wife who came to inform us early in the morning. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to catch him so easily."

Some people didn't believe it: "Is it true? The village chief is not lying to us, is he?"

The village chief's face darkened. "I am not the only one who knows this. The four people who followed me last night all know this. If you don't believe me, go and ask."

Everyone looked at the person who questioned with contempt. When had the village chief ever lied to anyone? He was really stupid.

"Village chief, don't be angry. We are not like him. We all believe in you."

Knowing that Liu Laoshi's wife had sacrificed her own relatives for the sake of justice, the person who had just clamored to drive others away looked ashamed. He didn't expect that the other person was not the same kind of person as Liu Laoshi.

"I didn't expect Liu Laoshi's wife to be so reasonable. I was wrong and I was too aggressive just now. I will go and apologize later."

"Since she is a good person, if she is willing to sever her relationship with Liu Laoshi, we can accept her and her son."

Someone whispered, "I don't think she is a good person. Which wife would dare to sue her husband?"

The surrounding villagers glared at him: "What do you mean? You are standing up for Liu Laoshi so much. Are you in cahoots with him?"

The man was very anxious: "Bullshit! Who is in cahoots with him?"

"Isn't that how you speak for him?"

Seeing that he had incurred public anger, the man slapped himself in the face and begged for mercy: "I am not thinking clearly, I am wrong, please let me go."

After the villagers quieted down, the village chief continued: "Liu Laoshi is temporarily detained in the isolation area. For everyone's safety, the ropes on him will not be untied."

The villagers nodded in agreement: "It is right not to untie the rope. The guards must keep a close eye on him and not let him escape again."

"Village Chief, we don't need to worry about his food and drink, right?"

"Yes, he wants to poison us. Do we have to serve him well?"

"The village chief should have stopped his medicine. He saved his life but he still hates the village chief. Such an ungrateful person should be left to fend for himself."

"Right! Why should the village chief give the medicine to the ungrateful bastard at a lower price? Isn't this a waste of medicine? You should save it to save Ji Eun."

Everyone was filled with righteous indignation and strongly demanded that the village chief stop supplying the medicine and leave it to others. The village chief was not a brainless saint. Others wanted to kill his family, but he still wanted to save them. Isn't that cheap? Of course, the village chief nodded and agreed without hesitation.

"Well, I hope this is the last time you do such evil. If someone does it again, I will not be so easy to talk to. I will definitely give them a taste of their own medicine and let your whole family enjoy what you prepared!"

"That's it. I wonder who dares to poison me again!"

"The village chief is right! Evildoers must be punished by their evil deeds."

After the meeting, the village chief rubbed his temples with a headache and waited for a while before calling Liu Laoshi's wife.

"What do you think? Do you want to wait until the flood recedes and go out with Liu Laoshi, or do you want to separate from him now?"

The woman's eyes were firm: "Uncle Village Chief, I want to separate from him and stay in the village."

When she got home last night, she didn't sleep all night and thought a lot. Liu Laoshi's behavior did not consider how she and her son would cope with the situation.

It would have been fine if he didn't succeed, as everyone would not go too far with him because they were from the same village. But if he had succeeded, how would she and her son have survived?

The woman's hair stood on end when she thought about how she had slept with this poisonous snake for so long. She was risking her life to live with him. She must be waiting to be killed, right?

Moreover, they have been married for so many years, and she has been taking care of everything at home and outside. Her husband is lazy and does nothing. He has not contributed anything to the family. Instead, he requires her to work hard to serve him. If she and her son are separated from him, they will live a better life.

The village chief was not surprised at all, and his expression did not change at all.

"Since you have made up your mind, don't regret it in the future. And you need to teach your son well and let him know right from wrong. His father deserved the consequences he suffered, not the village."

The woman looked solemn and pointed to the sky and swore, "Uncle Village Chief, don't worry, I will definitely teach him well and will never let him become an ungrateful person like his father."

The village chief nodded, not knowing whether he believed it or not.

"After all, he is your son's biological father. I cannot be too cruel. You can send him some food and drink, but you and your son will have to rely on yourselves in the future. Don't be silly and still think about a heartless man. Think more about yourself."

The woman understood and tried her best to assure him: "Village chief, don't worry, I understand. I will only make sure that he doesn't starve to death, and I will definitely not let him have the strength to do bad things."

Seeing that the woman was so smart, the village chief was satisfied.
