The First Arrival Chapter 40: A Deal in the Dark
After dawn, Yi Ye Design lured out the ten cadres and broke them one by one. Now Yi Ye's strength has greatly improved, and he cooperated with Kress to capture these people easily.
Kress used some special methods to make all these people confess, plus this old man, eleven people, and the "Vayezeji robber incident" was closed.
"Boss, how did you know that this village chief was secretly trading with robbers?" Kress was puzzled.
"Still too young, Kresss."
"When I saw that den of thieves, I knew something was wrong. How did such a large bandit army survive, even if they were close to the sea and could still fish, but food was still scarce, this was originally deep in the forest, and they had no fields, so the source of food was this village. ”
"A satiety meal, a satiety meal, you understand?"
Kress nodded thoughtfully.
"If these robbers directly robbed the village of Varyezeji, then they would also have to move in a big way, which would be a big risk, so they made a deal with this old man, whenever the robbers invaded, the village chief would evacuate with a village, and the robbers would only take food."
"And what about how many villagers these robbers killed?"
"It's very simple, these things are only known to these eleven people, and those villagers who died are probably spontaneously formed to resist the robbers."
"Yes Yes ......"
"They didn't kill all the people in my village, they didn't even destroy the farms and cattle, and they left us hostages for us to trade, which shows that these robbers have done similar things, and they understand the psychology of these poor peasants, and they sacrifice their wealth to keep them safe."
"Makes sense......"
"The village chief is gone, what do you think will happen to the village?"
"Look for people everywhere."
"yes, so we have to go."
"Why don't you explain it to these villagers?"
"They are not so smart, they will not understand for a while, and when they see their village chief being tied up, they will not have to give us a hoe."
"Anyway, let's retreat first, I want this old man to point out another person to me." Yi Ye raised the corners of his mouth.
Yi Ye tied up these ten people, hid them in the dark, and rushed back with the old man.
The villagers were very puzzled when they saw their Lord Yi come back with the original village chief.
All the villagers gathered in front of Yi Ye, looked at each other, and discussed in a whisper.
Kress poured a basin of cold water on the old man. He woke up and shuddered.
Before Yi Ye could speak, the old man scolded Yi Ye like crazy. said that Yi Ye colluded with robbers and killed the people in their village, and he was a heinous bad person......
Everyone's expressions gradually became less friendly, this old man's acting skills are really first-class, it's a pity not to be an actor.
Yi Ye thought about knocking the old man unconscious again, but in front of many people, it would be even more difficult to explain.
Yi Ye didn't know where to start.
Just as Yi Ye hesitated, a woman rushed up and raised her hand to slap her.
But it hit the old man in the face. The old man's face was reddened like a child who had done something wrong, and he looked at the woman at a loss.
"I'm sorry." The old man began to mumble quietly.
Seeing that he had finally fallen silent, Yi Ye began his speech.
"As you can see, he's your former village chief, but there's something I have to tell you......"
Yi Ye told the village chief's dirty and ugly things one by one, although he knew some of them from the villagers.
After hearing this, several women shed tears of grief and fell to their knees and wept bitterly......
"You have given you the opportunity to take revenge right away, and now you can take all your resentment on him. Just to keep me alive. ”
With that, a large group of people began their revenge, but they were all punches and kicks, and did not cause much damage.
After a violent beating, Yi Ye called a halt.
"Tell me, which one of your informants in this village is, and if you're right, I'll let you go."
"Really?" The old man turned his head to look at Yi Ye. The appearance of a blue nose and swollen face is very funny.
"Of course, I'm very trustworthy with people."
The moment the old man spoke, one of the people in the crowd ran back like crazy, but before he could take two steps before he was shot to the ground with a bow and arrow. Yi Ye was prepared.
With everyone's eyes, Yi Ye rushed over without saying a word, and walked over when he mentioned him and threw him next to the old man.
"Don't say anything, this person is a traitor, just because of him, we almost all died."
Everyone stepped forward and beat him again, this time with a lot of weight, hammering him half to death.
"Stop."
Yi Ye stopped again and shouted into the distance.
"Torture Instruments."
The craftsman explained that he had only made a prototype, but Yi Ye didn't care, saying that he needed to cut off the prototype.
The half-finished instrument of torture was presented, but he realized that there did not seem to be an executioner. This kind of thing can't be cut by himself, although Yi Ye's hands are stained with a lot of blood, but if he cuts off his head, he doesn't have the guts.
In the end, it was not done, but the death penalty was inevitable, and everyone worked together to build a gallows, which was just a few pieces of wood and rope, and was easy to build.
During the construction, Yi Ye asked Kress to bring some people to bring the ten cadres over.
"Very well, villagers, I didn't build the torture instrument to kill anyone, but to let you understand the fate of betraying me."
"My lord, how could we betray you, you are the new king of this world......" It seems that the incident has increased their loyalty a lot.
After a burst of construction, the two were sent to the gallows.
"You liar, you said you should let me go." The old man seemed unconvinced.
"That's true for people, but are you, human?" Yi Ye shook his head.
The two struggled for a while, and it didn't take long for their souls to return to the west.
This incident is considered to be over temporarily, and they have tried their best to help this village eradicate the scourge, and there is no return, I am afraid that the lord of this village will not sit idly by, although they have never known to collect taxes in the village, but this village is their territory, Yi Ye will kill their village chief at once, and it is strange that the lord can let him go.
Alas, it's really a good person who doesn't have a good reward, Yi Ye fell into deep thought, thinking about the countermeasures after that.
After so many ups and downs, the last thing you want to happen has come.
He must not think that he is going to oppose the nobles. What is terrifying is not the person facing the Lord of Haida, but the nobles of the entire continent. Once a commoner makes an enemy with a nobleman, it is an enemy with all nobles, and in this case, the end will be miserable.
These ten cadres can be regarded as accomplices, and no more evidence has been found to convict them of capital crimes.
From these people's mouths, it was learned that their lord Haida went out with the army and would not be able to return for a while, which made Yi Ye feel at ease for the time being, and he still had time. And this Haida has no status in Nord, almost at the bottom of the nobility.
As for those three ships, they can be sold for a good price, and the relatively hidden cave is now all under Yi Ye.
Now there are more than 30 people in the village, and they are completely unable to develop, so they can only barely make ends meet. You'll have to recruit some people. In terms of food, he was almost finished, thinking about these troublesome things, Yi Ye gradually fell asleep.
It was a petite body, although the white dress made her look less weak, but this time, Yi Ye saw it clearly, the scars on the petite body inside the white dress, Yi Ye approached, but the closer she got the more shocking, those wounds were terrifyingly big, tightly attracting Yi Ye's attention, Yi Ye couldn't imagine how painful it was. He approached slowly, wanting to touch her, to know what was going on, to know who she really was. Yi Ye took a few steps forward, but the distance did not shorten, he began to feel uneasy, he began to rush forward, but to no avail. He was tired, tired, sitting on the ground panting, looking ahead, but feeling helpless, and suddenly, that familiar feeling came over him, that, a feeling of anger.
"Would you like to trade, for her." A voice came from the darkness.
