Chapter 343: The crowd is angry
"I also regret the death of Elder Dezong, but this is really an accident, and it was not designed by me at all!"
"Moreover, I don't have the ability to design these things, after all, those outsiders are not something you and I can control at all."
Listening to the white-bearded old man village chief, he spoke eloquently, reasonably, and the clan elder who scolded him was speechless by him, and he had nothing to say, so he could only sit in his position and stare at him without saying a word.
Seeing that the person who scolded himself was scolded back by himself, and he was scared, and he didn't dare to talk back, the white-bearded old man village chief instantly felt hearty, and his heart was a lot more happy.
Of course, these were just the feelings in his heart, and his face still pretended to be regretful, as well as a solemn expression, he glanced around again, and then said: "Everyone, I heard what I just said. ”
"The dead are gone, and no matter how much we try to make amends, they will not survive. Because of this, those of us who are alive, even if not for ourselves, but for the sake of those who have died, should live well. ”
"I know that my performance in the past two days has disappointed you, and you all feel that I am no longer suitable to be the head of my village. I am powerless to argue with your decision. ”
"However, before I do that, I still have one thing to discuss with you. If this matter is not negotiated, it is a small problem for me to be the village head, and whether our village can still exist is a big problem! ”
Hearing the white-bearded old man village chief say this, the clan elders frowned one after another, and even began to exchange ears.
They were wondering if what the bad old man was saying was true.
What did he find, or rather, what did he find, really related to the life and death of the entire village and everyone.
Or is this just an excuse for him to divert everyone's attention and let him continue to be the village head.
The clan elders twisted their heads, looked at each other, and, glancing at each other, the clan elder who had been scolding the white-bearded old man village chief, at the signal of the other clan elders, opened his mouth and asked, "What do you mean by this?" ”
"What do you mean, whether our village can exist or not is a question? Not even those monsters have been able to make our village extinct, and it is even more impossible now! ”
"You don't have to be alarmist here! Don't think that if you just take something out and divert everyone's attention, you can fool your mistakes. ”
"I'll tell you clearly, you can't get over the problem of the village chief today! No matter what excuse you make, you must also give up the position of village chief! ”
"Those monsters, it is true that they were not able to make our village extinct, but now, there are other people, they can!" Facing the question of the clan elder, the white-bearded old man shook his head and said slowly.
"Someone else? Who? Didn't that foreigner who went on a killing spree be killed by us? Who else could there be? The patriarch asked again.
The white-bearded old man did not answer directly, but asked, in the same way, "I remember, you were with me this morning, right?" ”
The patriarch nodded.
The white-bearded old man continued to ask, "So, do you remember who killed the young man standing next to me this morning?" ”
"Him?" In the mind of the clan elder, the image of Wang Yu who was bloodthirsty and fierce at that time appeared, and he couldn't help but shiver.
But then, he immediately shook his head and said, "I admit that the young man's strength is very strong, and it is even possible that he is stronger than the guy who opened the killing ring!" ”
"But, unlike that guy who went on a killing spree, he is sensible and willing to communicate with us."
"He killed that young man, and it was only because you, this guy, have been lying there to confuse the public, slandering him, and being the spy of those monsters, that he fought back!"
"Even, in the later days, the guy who went on a killing spree was able to be subdued with his help. Otherwise, we don't know how many people will die in our village! ”
"Such a person, he may have the ability to kill everyone in our village, but I think he is sensible and reasonable. He is a normal person, he can't do this kind of thing, to destroy humanity! ”
The white-bearded old man village chief nodded at first, and then shook his head and said, "He is indeed quite reasonable, but he is also very unreasonable!" If he doesn't have a reason, maybe, he won't do anything to us, but what if he has a reason? ”
The patriarch frowned and asked, "What is the reason?" We haven't offended him? ”
"Hmm...... No, we did offend him. However, later, he was willing to send someone to help us subdue that reckless man, doesn't that mean that he has lost his anger? ”
"Not that thing!" The white-bearded old man shook his head, looked around, hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "He wants those fragments, and yes, all of them!" ”
As soon as these words came out, all the clan elders didn't react at first, what were the "fragments" that the white-bearded old man village chief said.
When they reacted, they were all shocked, and some even took the case directly and said:
"No, what's the joke? Those fragments, are they ordinary fragments? That's the foundation of everyone's life, it's the root of life! No matter how strong he is, he is just a foreigner, and he has only been in the village for a few days, and he wants to control everyone's lifeline? Who does he think he is? ”
"Do you really think we're afraid of him, and hold us in our hands at will? He also asked all of us to hand over those fragments to him, why didn't he let all of us give him our lives? ”
"That's it, the ants still bite the elephant to death, if we all don't want to, can he still be strong? Can he still kill all of us? If he really killed us all, and killed so many people at once, wouldn't he be afraid of God's curse? ”
"I'd rather he kill my old bones! Take away those fragments, without the protection of those fragments, those monsters come at night, what should you do? ”
"Instead of being disemboweled, eaten alive by those monsters, I would really rather be stabbed to death by someone, and then die a more painful death!"
In the midst of the scolding and condemnation, the patriarch who had been the village chief of the white-bearded old man raised his hands and pressed them down, signaling everyone to stop arguing, he had something to say.
When everyone gradually quieted down, he looked at the white-bearded old man village chief and asked, "That person, what are you going to do to collect those fragments?" ”
Before the white-bearded old village chief could answer, someone jumped out and retorted, "What do you mean? What do you want him to do? Whatever he wants, we can't, hand over those pieces! ”
The clan elder glared at the man, and said angrily: "Shut up, you don't have a good brain, so don't talk less!" Since we all said that the guy is reasonable, there must be a reason why he wants those pieces. ”
"If, if we don't ask the reason clearly, we make an arbitrary decision, and when the time comes, if we really provoke the other party and really want to slaughter the village, what should we do?"
"Do you want to die, or do you want to watch your family be killed by him?"
The man was dumbfounded, his mouth opened, but he didn't know what to say, so he simply closed his mouth and even threw his head aside.
The white-bearded old man village chief was very happy when he watched the infighting among these clan elders.
When the two of them stopped arguing, he spoke: "The man said that he needs to collect all the fragments, and then, with those fragments, to deal with those monsters, he said that he is sure that he can wipe out those monsters!" ”
"He said that if he succeeds, not only will the monsters disappear, but the fog in the woods will also disappear, and even the road to the village will go out, and the village will be restored to its original state."
As soon as this remark came out, it caused an uproar again, and the clan elders said in a gossipy:
"What are you kidding? He's a foreigner, and he's only been in the village for a few days? He was ashamed to say that he could solve those monsters and solve the problems of the village. Isn't that a joke? ”
"We have been doing it for so many years, so many people, and we have thought of so many ways, but to no avail, we can only survive. Who does he think he is? Open your mouth and say that you can solve these problems, but are we really stupid? ”
"That is to say, if he really has the ability to solve those monsters and those things, then he will go by himself, why bring those fragments?"
"Bring those fragments with you, if he succeeds, then everyone will naturally be happy, but if he fails, then don't all the people in our village want to bury him? What kind of vicious psychology does this guy have? ”
"I don't believe him! Those fragments, we haven't used them, and they can't do any harm to those monsters at all, so why does he have to bring those fragments? There's definitely something wrong with that! ”
"Guys, you say, that guy, could it really be a traitor to those monsters? Now, he came to ask us for those fragments, just to deceive those fragments from us. ”
"Then, let those monsters, at night, be able to kill us all smoothly?"
