Except for the middle-aged man who came out first and was responsible for leading the knights, the rest of the villagers scattered to find someone.

Strangely, Anne disappeared after just a short while.

It's as if they disappeared out of thin air, or there is no such person in the world at all, it's completely their imagination.

"It must be a witch's sorcery!"

"At this age, she has this ability. We must find her! Let her grow up, the consequences will be disastrous. She will definitely harm more people by then!"

"Have you searched for all the houses in the village? Could she be hiding in someone's crock pot? Or under the bed, or in the fireplace. No one will burn the fireplace this season, and it's just right to hide someone in it."

……

After a search, no one was found in or outside the village.The expressions of the knights were not right, and they couldn't help but look suspiciously at the gathered villagers: "Or, among you, who hid that witch?!"

That makes sense!There are people in the village to help cover, and it is not so difficult to hide.

After all, the ignorant villagers would think that a little girl would have powerful witch power to protect themselves, but how could the knights not know that Annie was not a witch at all.

Who made her family rich.After her father was a down-and-out nobleman, even though he didn't even have the lowest title now, he could only move to this remote village.However, the precious antiques and jewelry still kept in his home are enough to make people jealous.

Even if the other party hid these things well, they were still discovered.

Bishop-level people look down on these wealth, but for a priest, it is not a small sum.And it is very easy to get these properties, just find an excuse.

It makes sense that the witch accidentally killed the whole family while experimenting with a new sorcery, doesn't it?

It's a pity that a little girl escaped.It just happened to be such a coincidence that the little girl was not at home when they did it, and when they went out to look for it, she came back again.The two sides just staggered.The worst thing was that her mother was still angry, and she made her run away after explaining a few words.If they hadn't come back quickly, let alone the hunt, they might not even know that the little girl had come back.

It is precisely because they know these inside stories that the knights are fearless.

What's more, how could the real witches be handed over to them who, strictly speaking, could not even be considered apprentice knights to hunt them down.You know, the only person among them who has the status of a knight is the captain.The rest can only be said to be still under investigation.

But if this task is successfully completed, with the wealth they got from Annie's family, even if they don't get much, it will be a considerable windfall income, enough to make some connections.

Coupled with the recommendations of the priest and the squad leader, it won't take long for them to become real knights.Although he is an apprentice knight, he is much stronger than now.

Thinking of this, the knights became more eager to find Anne's heart.They cannot be left alive!Leave troubles for yourself.

The knights became ruthless, and their attitude towards these villagers who had been unable to find anyone for a long time became even worse.Faced with the knight's questioning, the villagers were terrified.

"By God, we absolutely did not hide anyone!"

"Tracey has already killed her husband. Witches are so cruel and terrible. How dare we approach a witch? Everyone knows that witches bring bad luck. Anne is also an evil witch. She will kill the whole village. Damn, we all want to live!"

……

That's right, who would risk their lives to defend a witch? !Not to mention going against the temple!The knights reluctantly believed the villagers.They started looking for someone again.However, no matter how hard they searched, even if they turned over one by one and walked all over the village, their legs were sore from walking, but they never saw Anne again.

Is Anne really a witch?They were doing private work this time, but they ran into a real witch by mistake?The captain couldn't help being so suspicious.Otherwise, with so many of them, how could they not even find a little girl!

Although she was afraid, the hatred had already been forged, so she could only cut the weeds and roots while she was still young.Lest she grow up to retaliate.

"If I knew it earlier, I shouldn't be greedy for that little money!" The captain cursed remorsefully, but his hand involuntarily reached for a bag on his waist.Remorse is quickly overshadowed by greed.

Okay, Chi Jiu, who heard his words clearly, immediately got the result: he is a traitor!

Since the captain did this for money, the little girl's status as a witch is very suspicious.Chi Jiu didn't notice anything unusual about this girl.This is just an ordinary girl.At most, it was because she often ran outside, and her body was much stronger than girls of the same age.But Chi Jiu didn't feel powers like magic and witchcraft anyway.

The knights and villagers searched eagerly, exhausted.But Anne fell asleep sweetly.In the dream, she forgot the departure of her parents and her own situation.She was lying on the green grass, the lawn was full of fragrant and beautiful flowers, and the sun was warm, and a little bird landed beside her.The birds were singing crisply and gracefully, as if they were singing.

Accompanied by the melodious singing, Anne basked in the sun and fell asleep.

Now that the traitor has been judged, Chi Jiu is too lazy to care about those so-called knights, letting them run around like headless chickens.Serve it right anyway!

While the little girl was sleeping, Chi Jiu let go of God's perspective and prepared to have a deeper understanding of the world.

In the town closest to the village, there was a priest in the church, who was telling people triumphantly about Anne's family, and said that a large fortune would soon be made.Only then did Chi Jiu learn about what happened at Annie's house.

Very good, not only for money, but also for killing!

Seeing that there were two dead bodies in the house of the best house in the village, Chi Jiu decided to make a little trouble for the priest and the knights first.For example, fetch water from a bamboo basket in vain!

"Bag, why is my bag missing? Who saw a buckskin bag?" There was a sudden light on the waist, and a bag full of gems of various colors disappeared just like that.The squad leader's face suddenly changed.

This is a good thing that was just found from the witch's house.Gold coins are too heavy, and antiques are not easy to carry.At that time, he was anxious to find Annie, so he only brought the gems dug out from Annie's house.Take other things together when you leave the village.

This gem is not all his own, now it is gone, can the pastor let him go after returning?Although he is not afraid of the other party.

I am not afraid of returning home, but my heart hurts!

Such a big bag of gems!They are all very pure and large rubies and sapphires, and I don't know how Anne's parents kept them.How could a down and out noble keep this thing in his hands.But the value of this bag of gems is higher than the rest of Anne's family, all the things combined!

Just lost it like this, what is the difference between going out this trip and being busy for nothing?And possibly offended a real witch.What a loss!

The more I thought about it, the more my heart ached, and the team leader quickly ordered the people around: "It must have fallen somewhere by accident. Look for it!"
