Chapter 289: Stay Alive

It was night when Brooke opened his eyes again, which gave him the illusion that he hadn't been in a coma for long.

However, when he saw his wife standing by the bed in pajamas, he knew he was mistaken.

It was already the middle of the night, close to dawn, and something so big had happened, no one in the village should be sleepy anymore, and even if there were, everyone was from the countryside, and it was estimated that they would just throw themselves on the bed to make do, and it was impossible to change their pajamas so meticulously and sleep again.

His wife's voice followed closely and confirmed his suspicions.

"Master, you've finally woken up, you've been asleep for two days, and I'm so afraid you'll never wake up again, like those people. Seeing Brooke wake up, the woman threw herself on Brooke and cried.

"Three days, no wonder I feel so hungry. Brooke patted his wife's back with one hand to comfort him, and with the other hand he touched his stomach that felt empty and growled in protest, however, just a few touches, his hand suddenly froze there, and he couldn't help but be a hand, and his whole body froze.

"What did you just say, who will never wake up again?" he asked, his voice visibly fluttering and trembling, not knowing whether it was because he was too weak or for some other reason.

Feeling the changes in her man's body, the woman's crying also stopped abruptly, she got up, and said with a stammer: "Just ...... Just the sixth, there are two of them, as well as Mark and Jerry. ”

Brooke only felt a bang in his head, these few people don't know what to call others, but he has been the head of this village for 10 years, how can he not know?

The old six and the two were the woman who rang the bell that night and shouted that her cattle had been stolen, and the man who came over with a bag of bloody hula stubble to say that he had found evidence.

As for Mark and Jerry, aren't they the same two people who should talk to the woman after she has cried out and finally lead to Langdon, the "culprit"?

Aren't these four people, plus himself, all the people who spoke during that day's events?

"What do you think is wrong with them?" said Brooke, who was a little incredulous, and asked again in a trembling voice.

was continuously questioned by Brooke in that voice full of fear, and the fear, depression and other emotions that the woman had been holding back for so many days finally broke out completely at this moment.

"Why don't you wake up!" she shouted, her voice shaking Brooke's ears aching, "Dead! they're all dead......! Killed by that woman! She just like that, like that, and they all died. ”

After the initial outburst, her voice became quieter and quieter, she learned Hogg's movements that day twice, and finally couldn't do it anymore, her arms hugged her body tightly, and the whole person shrunk into a ball, trembling and crying - after the emotional outburst, the fear of witnessing several people killed one after another at close range completely occupied her psyche again.

Brooke was also stunned, where did he have time to comfort his wife.

"Dead, dead like this, all dead?" he muttered, "What about me? Why am I not dead?"

The man said...... Say, you're still a little useful, so I'll spare you a life for the time being......" The woman also replied a little dumbly, and there was no sound again.

"Am I useful?" Brooke repeated these three words, his eyes finally brightened, as the head of the village and the only person in the village who had come into contact with the real power, he seemed to know what to do.

Early the next morning, the early risers in the village saw that the head of their village had left the courtyard early, came to the door of the next courtyard, and knelt there.

How could they not be afraid that four people had died in the village at once, and that they had been killed in such a furious manner in full view of everyone?

But they are not really stupid, and they also understand a truth, killing people is terrible, but killing their own heads is even more terrible, so, in order to prevent the other party from continuing to kill and kill their own heads, the villagers quickly changed their attitudes and became 100% obedient.

So, no one resisted, they obediently buried the four men according to Langdon's words, and then lived honestly as before, and then, after two days, the village changed back to its original state, as if nothing had happened.

Of course, Brooke didn't notice any of this at all, and he didn't even glance his eyes over the door from the time he went out to his knees to the door of the courtyard where Langdon lived, and then he knelt down and was engrossed.

Engrossed, of course, listening to the sounds of the yard, his mind was more focused when he heard footsteps inside, and his brain was spinning rapidly.

What should I do when the adult opens the door? weep and kowtow and beg for forgiveness? Or do I hold his leg and kiss his shoes as it is written? Or do I do it in some other way?

Just then, the door opened, and the sound that followed disrupted all his plans.

"Yo, you deserve to be an official, and your political and political consciousness is high, you just woke up last night, and you came to recognize your mistake today?"

"But do you think I'm going to believe in you like that, or do I need to believe in you, and what do you have to believe in you and keep yours?"

Brooke was stunned, he didn't expect Langdon to say these things as soon as he opened his mouth, and he couldn't answer for a long time.

"So, you don't know what you have to believe you leave your place, do you......?"

"No, my lord, Lord Langdon, I know, I know! you killed them and left me alone, there must be a reason, a reason......"

He muttered, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he exclaimed, "Mountain!"

"Yo, it's really not stupid, you see, I said that it would be useful to spare his life. The latter sentence was said to the people around him, and Brooke only found out at this time that in addition to the two girls around Langdon, there was actually another person, a middle-aged man in a strange dress.

"You're right, I'm here for this mountain, so you'd better think about what you can give me." ”

"I don't have much time to spend with you, so don't you send someone to verify my letter of appointment this afternoon, and they will come back this afternoon, and at that time, give me a record of everything you know about this mountain range, and you better hope that there is something I want, otherwise, hehe......"

Syllable!

The door closed again in front of Brooke.

Brooke knelt there, feeling chills all over his body, and Langdon's last huh seemed to be engraved in his mind, and he suddenly remembered that on the afternoon of that incident, when he and Langdon had their first formal conversation, Langdon had laughed like this twice, and then, four people died......

Thinking of this, Brooke didn't dare to slack off any longer, got up from the ground, turned his head and ran home, ignoring the strange stares cast by the other villagers.
