Chapter 68: The Unexpected Man Unexpectedly Breaks the Siege
"Evidence, I am the evidence!" a loud shout sounded from Lin Chen's side.
When everyone heard this, they all turned around.
And Lin Chen was holding his head with his hands, and he had a headache.
I saw Meng Qingwu separate the crowd, walked in, and said angrily: "Don't pretend!"
"The woman's anger really can't be stopped, it can't be stopped!" Lin Chen sighed and followed.
Ding Liquan, Ding Yiquan, and the village chief were all shocked when they saw that it was Meng Qingwu and Lin Chen.
"What, what the hell?" said Dream Dancer angrily.
Lin Chen pulled Meng Qingwu, but Meng Qingwu ignored it at all, and continued: "Lord Lin and I went up the mountain to catch the fox demon, and the fox demon didn't hurt us, but almost died in your trap. ”
When the village chief heard Meng Qingwu's words, his face immediately turned ugly, and he said tremblingly, "Trap?
"Naturally, it's ......" Meng Qingwu was about to say the trap in the secret room underground, but was interrupted by Lin Chen.
"You still dare to ask!" Lin Chen said angrily, "The fox demon on the mountain said that there is no fox demon named Hu Ling at all! Are you taking advantage of my love for Xiao Li and trying to trick me into going up the mountain to get rid of the fox demon who has a charm for your son, so you made it up!"
When the villagers heard this, they were immediately as excited as if they had eaten melons.
"What? The village chief said that his daughter-in-law is a fox demon?"
"It's so shameful! I wanted Lord Lin to help him treat his son's illness, and he actually came up with such a bad idea. ”
When Ding Yiquan on the side heard this, he immediately came to his senses, he couldn't get off the stage here, but he let Lin Chen and the others lead the limelight, so he naturally wanted to help fan the flames.
"Such a person is also worthy of being the village chief?"
And the village chief didn't care about what others said, just stared at Lin Chen with two eyes, and muttered: "How can there be, how can there be." ”
Meng Qingwu didn't understand why Lin Chen didn't let her tell her about the secret room in the well, but seeing that Lin Chen seemed to have some plans, she didn't speak anymore.
Lin Chen squatted down and patted the village chief on the shoulder, and said in a voice in his ear that only two people could hear: "If you don't want to die, take the initiative to admit your mistake, don't worry, the prince's affairs can't be leaked now." ”
The village chief's eyes widened, and he looked at Lin Chen incredulously.
Lin Chen stood up and said slowly: "Although you deceived me and Master Meng, I don't care about you anymore because you are worried about saving your son." ”
As soon as Lin Chen's words came out, the villagers also praised them, saying that there were a lot of adults in Lin.
The village chief heard Lin Chen's words and wanted to relieve him from the siege, so he hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "Old man, I was blinded by lard, and I deceived adults to save my son, I am not human." ”
After saying that, he slapped himself twice in the face.
"Forget it, forget it!" Lin Chen waved his hand, and then said to everyone, "I went up the mountain today, and I did see the fox demon, the fox demon is very powerful, I and Lord Meng are almost defeated, and it is a fluke to be able to go down the mountain alive." So ......"
When everyone heard this, they all exploded like thunder, and they didn't care what Lin Chen was going to say next.
"This fox demon up the mountain is so powerful?" asked one of the villagers.
Without waiting for Lin Chen to answer, another villager preemptively said: "Of course it's amazing, you didn't see what Brother Zhong had become." ”
"What can I do?"
"Your Excellency, you must save us. ”
"Quiet and quiet!" Lin Chen cleared his throat and said loudly, "Our top priority is how to deal with the fox demon on this mountain! As far as I know, that fox demon happened to be going down the mountain to make trouble recently, and it was just a coincidence that we met Zhang Zhong. So, let's put everything else in the village aside. ”
After speaking, Lin Chen turned to look at Ding Liquan and asked, "I don't know if I arranged it like this, but does anyone have an opinion?"
Ding Liquan heard that Lin Chen's words were to nudge himself, so he said: "Everything is up to the adults. ”
"Okay, in that case, everyone will go home and sleep first, and discuss countermeasures together tomorrow, and the fox demon won't come over so quickly for the time being. Lin Chen said to everyone.
Then there was a cacophony of voices, and everyone went home.
"Let's go?" Lin Chen said to the village chief.
Back at the village chief's house, Lin Chen didn't see Zhang Xiaoli, his heart tightened, and he hurriedly rushed into Xiaoli's room. I saw Xiao Li Zheng'an lying on Zhang Zhong's side steadily, breathing evenly. I spit out in my heart, and it seems that the man has not fled here.
Walking out of the room, Lin Chen closed the door, and then came to his own house, where the village chief stood cowering in the house, and opposite him was Meng Qingwu, who was sitting on a chair and sulking.
"Why do you want to help this bad old man?" Meng Qingwu asked when she saw Lin Chen enter the house.
However, Lin Chen didn't answer Meng Qingwu, he just turned his eyes to the village chief and said, "Xiao Li is your medicine." ”
The village chief was visibly trembling, but did not speak.
"Xiao Li, this kid is kind-hearted, knowing that I went up the mountain to kill demons, he was about to cry in a hurry, there is no reason not to wait for me to come back. So, you saw that she didn't sleep for a long time and delayed your business, so you drugged her and let her sleep. ”
The village chief still didn't speak, but the trembling on his body became more obvious.
"What? You actually drugged Xiao Li?" When Meng Qingwu heard this, his temper immediately came up, and he forgot the question he asked Lin Chen, so he thought about giving the village chief two punches, "Xiao Li is still a child, and she is also your own granddaughter, how can you do it! I have to beat you today." ”
Just when Meng Qingwu stood up, intending to teach this bad old man a lesson, Lin Chen's voice came faintly: "You think she was born of a fox demon, so you can do something to her, but what if I tell you that her mother is not a demon, but a human?"
"Impossible, impossible!" cried the village chief, "I have seen it with my own eyes, I have seen it with my own eyes, how can it be fake?"
Meng Qingwu was also confused by Lin Chen, and she didn't know if she should step forward to beat the village chief now.
"I did go up the mountain today and saw the fox demon, but there is no fox demon named Hu Ling on the mountain, and I learned another news. Lin Chen looked at the excited village chief and said slowly, "That is, it is impossible for humans and demons to have offspring." ”
"W-what!" the village chief took two steps back and slammed into the table behind him.
"And I just took a closer look, Xiao Li doesn't have any demonic energy at all! She's a human!" Lin Chen was actually angry with himself, when he set off this morning, he forgot to ask the little blind man to check Zhang Xiaoli's body, but he only remembered to do so when he came back tonight.
"Big, big, sir, is this true?" the village chief excitedly forgot all about his humiliation, and subconsciously straightened up and stepped forward to ask.
"What's in it for me to lie to you?" Lin Chen sneered.
"Impossible, impossible!" After speaking, the village chief actually cried.
Hearing the village chief's cry, Lin Chen handed a chair to the village chief, who was already unsteady on his feet and sat down.
Meng Qingwu saw that the village chief, an old man of such an age, cried like a child, and put away the idea of teaching him a lesson, muttering another thing in his heart.
"I'll ask you a few questions, think about it yourself. First, who made you think that Hu Ling was a fox demon, second, when did you decide that Hu Ling was a fox demon, and third, and the key point, when did the prince's people contact you. After Lin Chen finished speaking, he stared at the village chief.
After listening to Lin Chen's words, the village chief was obviously stunned, and after a while, the village chief muttered: "It's them, it's them!"
Lin Chen smiled, it seemed that he had guessed correctly. Since Hu Ling is not a fox demon, it means that someone wants the village chief to think that Hu Ling is a fox demon. What does an old man have to make others plot, but it is only the convenience of the post of village head, and what is the convenience of the post of village head? Of course, it is convenient to take out or cover up the treasures in the ground and the things in the mountains. And the biggest suspicion is the prince.
"I'm confused, I'm confused!" said the village chief, full of chagrin, "that talisman paper was not actually asked for by me, but by the prince's people. ”
Next, the village chief told the story of the year.
It turned out that the village chief was really anxious to hug his grandson, but he didn't ask anyone to ask for the talisman as he said last time, but someone took the initiative to find him, saying that his daughter-in-law was a demon, and gave him this talisman, and the subsequent process was basically the same as last time. And the person who took the initiative to find himself was the prince's person.
"If that person can really see that Hu Ling is a fox demon, does he still need you to do it? He won't do it himself? That talisman should not be for Hu Ling, but for you to use the ecstasy talisman!" Lin Chen sighed, "Say, what do they want to do, prince?"
However, at this time, the village chief kept his mouth shut again, he knew that those were the people he could not afford to offend.
"Don't you really plan to let the whole village be buried together?"
