I panicked and yelled in retort, but no one listened. I was greeted with a truly ruthless and resentful gaze. The funny thing is that there is also Wang Er who was saved by me.

The few people who didn't shout, at this moment, also chose to be silent, and didn't even dare to look at me.

My voice, in the face of the roar of the crowd, seemed so insignificant.

I tried to struggle to escape, but I was grabbed by a group of people and tied me up with ropes.

Looking at the crazy faces of their group, I was extremely angry, but more than that, desperate.

In the face of the crisis, the so-called human nature and human heart have become so fragile.

Shatter at the touch of a button. I obviously didn't do anything, just because the person who died before was my cousin, because of suspicion, because of this.

This group of people actually wanted to slaughter me as a beast and worship the so-called old ancestor.

At this moment, I suddenly understood that the original ...... Ghosts are not terrible, what is terrible is people, it is the human heart......

I suddenly felt ridiculous, I didn't die at the hands of those ghosts, but had to be disemboweled, what a mockery of it. In despair, I forgot to be afraid.

The villagers grabbed me and pressed me directly to the front of the old ancestral hall and tied me up, tied to the pillar and raised a pile of firewood, all the villagers gathered in a circle, some with flashlights, some with torches and looking at me.

"Now that it is a society governed by the rule of law, there will definitely be police officers coming to your door to arrest you." I'm a little anxious, these ignorant villagers have gone crazy.

Now they completely think that I have provoked those so-called ancestors in the ancestral hall to provoke them, hoping that I can use my life to dissolve their anger.

"I can't get out anyway, and if I stay here, I'll die." One of the villagers said at me viciously, then held up a torch and said, "Burn her." ”

Then, one after another, people shouted repeatedly, more and more, and the voices became louder and louder.

At the age of seventeen, I am still a little stubborn in believing that the world is black and white, and the distinction between right and wrong is as clear as day and night.

But these villagers taught me a lesson.

In the face of one's own interests, what is wrong can also be right.

The terrible selfishness that erupted into the peasant, who has always been honest, when he meets a chance to change his fate a little, makes people feel cold.

What is raised in the yellow earth is not only the grain, but also the unwillingness to be smashed out by sweat for generations.

After a short worship ceremony, I could only watch as the village party secretary took the lead and walked towards me with torches.

At the beginning, when a villager raised his hand to throw a torch at me, an accident happened, only to hear a crisp sound of "bang", the villager suddenly staggered, took a few steps back, and the torch in his hand fell out of his hand.

This scene frightened everyone.

"It's a copper coin!"

A sharp-eyed villager suddenly pointed to the ground. Everyone took advantage of the situation and saw a copper coin with a round square mouth, which was bouncing slightly on the ground.

I didn't react for the rest of my life after the catastrophe, could it be that it was this small copper coin that knocked down the torch just now?

Just when everyone was in shock, a sound of "jingle bell" came from the direction of the village entrance in the distance. The sound is not loud, but it is crisp and everyone can hear it clearly.

For a moment, everyone became nervous.

At this moment, an old man in tattered and sloppy clothes ran out of the darkness in the distance of the ancestral hall, slumped his shoulders and shrugged, shouting as he ran, "Girl, Grandpa Nen, I'm here to save you." ”
