Chapter 99 Sadness
When everyone found Xiaoling, she was sitting in front of a small house in the corner of the village and crying loudly. Everyone did not find any figures along the way, but they did not see any traces of damage.
"Don't worry, your mother and sister will definitely not be in trouble."
But even if Yan Ni comforted Xiaoling with her gentle words, Xiaoling just shook her head.
Now that he is optimistic about Yan Ni, Dongfang has obviously discovered more things. Along the way, only the cottage in front of him seems very embarrassed, as if he is surrounded by many people, and then the people inside are pulled out - Dongfang has come to this conclusion through observation.
"It's not good. When Xiaoling heard Wu Jian say the atmosphere was wrong, she seemed to know what was going on. I'm afraid..."
Dongfang looked at Zhao Qiang, and Zhao Qiang nodded. Then Zhao Qiang asked Wu Jian who was late and said, "Wu Jian, you should know where the villagers are going!"
"Well, just wait for you to come with me later. I'll take Xiaoling over first."
Wu Jian walked to Xiaoling and picked her up and said, "I will take you to my mother now."
At this moment, an old voice came from a distance.
"Xiaoling? Is it Xiaoling?"
"grandfather!"
Xiaoling immediately struggled when she heard this voice. Seeing this, Wu Jian had to let go quickly. After Xiaoling landed, she staggered, rolled and crawled to an old man, hugged the old man's legs and asked over and over again, "Where is Mom? Where is Sister?"
"Xiaoling! Calm down first."
It was great that the old man could walk out after hearing Xiaoling's crying. How could he withstand Xiaoling's shaking unstoppable answers to her? Yan Ni, who saw this clearly, hurried over to comfort Xiaoling, and then asked the old man politely: "Old man, do you know what happened to Xiaoling's house?"
"Oh, Xiaoling's mother has been..."
"No!!! Didn't you say you wouldn't do that anymore??" Xiaoling shouted excitedly.
The old man shook his head and said, "After you disappeared, your mother and sister looked for you all day long, but soon your sister disappeared, and your mother was also arrested by the village chief. Then the priest came out and told everyone that God needed a sacrifice, and then he treated Xiaoling's mother as a sacrifice..."
"Impossible! God would not ask for such a thing. What's wrong with this!" Yanni said excitedly.
The old man still shook his head: "That's because the priest said it, so everyone believed it."
"How could it be..."
Yan Ni covered her mouth in disbelief, then Zhao Qiang walked over and said, "Now the people in the village are gone, maybe not yet started!"
The old man sighed and said, "No, it started three days ago, and the ceremony has been carried out until today."
When Xiaoling heard the old man say this, she was completely stunned. No matter how Ren Yanni did, she could not call her back. At this time, there was also a noise outside the village. Xiaoling, who heard the noise, suddenly reacted and saw her shakingly walking towards the direction where the sound came.
Everyone didn't know how to comfort her, so they could only watch her shakingly. But Dongfang frowned and looked at Wu Jian, but he couldn't see what Wu Jian was thinking now.
Soon, Xiaoling met the villagers who came back. Xiaoling just walked over like that, but it was not the case for the villagers. When they found Xiaoling, they seemed to find something dirty, and they were yelling.
"It's the witch's daughter!"
"Isn't the witch's daughter also a witch?"
"It's so disgusting. I actually saw this little bastard again!"
"Quick! Hurry up and catch her and burn it, otherwise we will do this next year!!!"
Under the orders of a priest dressed in a man, several "brave" young men were about to arrest Xiaoling, but would Wu Jian let them do this?
Wu Jian flashed and hugged Xiaoling directly in his arms. As for those "brave" young men, because Wu Jian's appearance was too clever, they were shocked, but their hands stretched forward. However, Wu Jian thought they were dirty. Before they met, they screamed and fell to the ground and rolled in pain.
"What, what!?"
For Wu Jian who suddenly appeared, the people in front were so scared that they kept retreating, but the people behind were unable to leave their positions in time. In a moment, they fell down and wanted to pull others to stand up, while the people who were still standing wanted to dodge quickly, so they squeezed into a crowd to form a situation where you stepped on me and I stepped on you, and some children were even trampled on.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Wu Jian sneered and said, "Hmph! What a disgusting thing!"
"Mr. Wu Jian..."
Yan Ni looked at Wu Jian. Although she couldn't see Wu Jian's eyes, she could feel from his words that Wu Jian no longer regarded them as human beings.
However, Yanni has not forgotten her identity. So she said to Palu: "Master Brave, can you help me raise him?"
Yanni refers to the priest, and Palu is naturally happy to help her, but her technique is a bit rougher.
"You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, what do you want to do!?"
The priest who was thrown directly on the ground by Palu was in great pain, but he was not in the mood to cry out for pain. Seeing so many people staring at him, he was so scared that he had been able to speak well for a long time.
"I ask you, do you know what this is?"
The saint's logo appeared on Yanni again, and the priest clearly knew the meaning of the logo. Although he hesitated for a long time, he still got up and bowed to Yanni.
"His Majesty..."
The trembling voice meant that he knew that the Saint would be guilty of him, but he lowered his head and his eyes were spinning around, desperately considering the excuse of shirking.
"Since you know, then you are really a priest...why do you do this!"
"For, why? His Highness, I, I don't know what it is..."
"Don't lie! I'll ask you, why did you lie to the villagers to use Xiaoling's mother as a sacrifice!"
"This, this is..." The priest wiped his sweat and said, "Because... God..."
"Nonsense! God won't do this! You must be lying!"
"His Majesty!"
The priest fell to the ground with a weak knee and cried bitterly, saying, "I really heard the voice of God! That's what he told me in my dream! Then after I woke up, the tree in the yard bloomed like in my dream! Please give me a glimpse of the saint!!!"
The priest's crying was extremely bright, and the tears on his face mixed with the soil looked extremely desolate.
However, he could only deceive the innocent Yanni and Palu, and others would not buy it. Just as Wu Jian sneered and took a step forward, Dongfang saw that Wu Jian was planning to torture the confession, so he grabbed Wu Jian's shoulder to stop him.
"Leave it to me."
Dongfang passed Yanni and kicked her.
“Ah~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~”
The priest immediately shouted loudly.
"Mr. Dongfang!"
Yan Ni wanted to stop Dongfang, but Wu Jian grabbed her shoulder and shook her head and said, "Let me leave it here to Dongfang. If it is really wronged, I will take responsibility."
After Wu Jian said this, Yan Ni was not good at saying anything. She just leaned her hand against her chest and looked at Dongfang for questioning.
However, Dongfang is not such a gentle person. He didn't care about the priest crying and howling. He walked over and stepped on the priest's calf.
With a click, the priest showed an incredible expression, and then he screamed as if the heaven and earth were destroyed.
snort!
Dongfang Li ignored it and stepped on the other calf again, then stomped the priest's arms one by one.
"Don't scream so badly, I'm in control. Zhao Xin!"
Zhao Xin understood the truth and cast a healing magic on the priest. After the magic dissipated, the priest's scream stopped.
"How is it, does it still hurt?"
Dongfang's surprisingly gentle voice confused the priest. It took him a long time to grab Dongfang's outstretched hand and stood up, whispering thank you.
However, Dongfang showed a cruel smile the next second, and he crushed the priest's palm with force. Then he kicked again, and the priest kneeled down with the sound of the bone breaking. Then Dongfang asked Zhao Xin to treat him again, and then repeated it.
"Wu Jian..."
"Shut up!"
"!"
Yan Ni wanted to stop her several times, but was stopped by Wu Jian. When she couldn't help but speak, she was blocked by Wu Jian and went back. Yan Ni showed a sad expression for a moment.
Dongfang tortured the priest until he was dying - even if his body was not hindered, his spirit could not bear it, not to mention that Zhao Xin's magic could not be completely healed.
"Even if the saint is present, I can't save you. No matter whether you are true or false, I can only give you the answer that satisfies me from your mouth, otherwise..."
Dongfang acted and wanted to step on it again, and the priest was already exhausted. When he saw that he could finally speak, he quickly shouted.
"I said, I said! It's all because of these untouchables!" The priest pointed to the villagers who had been scared and said, "That is, since Xiaoling's father died, their men fell in love with An's beauty, while the women were jealous. They have been bullying their mother and daughter, constantly pouring dirty water on them! In recent years, the harvest in this village has been bad, and they have pushed the reason to them. I just followed their wishes and comforted them. This... This proposal was originally something that someone told me that it was because they caused them so miserable that I would make up this lie, otherwise they would blame me, and I would be used as a sacrifice!"
