Chapter 20: The Real Goal
I was shocked and said to Huzi, "The person who poisoned the well water is not the coffin maker surnamed Wang?" ”
"No, it's not."
Huzi shook his head vigorously, still whispering, "It's a man I don't know, tall and thin, I've never seen him before." ”
His words startled me.
Could it be that there are people other than those surnamed Wang who plan to poison the villagers?
My whole body was in a trance, and even greater questions arose in my heart.
The village chief tied me firmly with a rope, and I couldn't do anything, so I could only sit back helplessly, and laughed miserably at Huzi,
"Huzi, do you believe in brother?"
Huzi nodded vigorously, holding back tears and said I believe it, "The people in the village say that you are a bad boy and refuse to bring you food, only I know that it is not you who poisoned the well." ”
I took a breath and said, "Just believe me, you put down these meals, and after leaving the village chief's house, hurry up and run to the East Village, run as fast as possible, don't stop for a moment, run as far as you can, and never come back in the future!" ”
I tried it during the day, and the whole village was surrounded by evil formations, and only the dense fog in the direction of the East Village was the weakest, and it was possible to run out of the village.
Huzi is so young, he doesn't understand anything, and there is no need to stay in the village to accompany the burial.
Huzi stubbornly clenched his little fists, saying no, I'm not afraid, I want to stay to find the murderer and avenge my mother.
His words shocked me, looked at Huzi's face full of unyielding and stubbornness, and said with a wry smile,
"If you want revenge, you have to learn your skills first, you are so young, you can only give your life in vain if you stay, listen to my brother, how far you run, and when you grow up, you will avenge us after you have the ability."
I tried to get in front of Huzi and said word by word, "Remember, the coffin maker surnamed Wang is one of the enemies who killed the villagers, if you can survive, you must not let him go when you have the ability in the future." ”
"yes, I see!"
He nodded vigorously, then hesitantly looked at the rope on my body, saying that he would help me untie the rope and run together.
I directly refused, "No, the rope is too strong, you can't untie it with little strength, and even if you can untie it, it will waste a lot of time." ”
The goal of running together is too big, the villagers are all coming at me, and Huzi will never be able to run with me.
I'm going to stay and give Huko a chance to escape from the village while the mastermind is focused on me.
Huzi and I must leave one person behind to avenge the village.
Huzi cried and agreed, and after walking out of the firewood room, he looked back at me deeply, and said in a childish tone,
"Brother Zhou Xuan, you will always be my brother, I will definitely help you take revenge, definitely!"
After saying that, he ran as hard as he could towards the outside of the village, and I leaned against the wall with a relieved face, and just as I was catching my breath, I heard the footsteps of many adults coming from the other side of the firewood house.
A lot of torches appeared outside, and the village chief, with a large group of villagers with a blank face, reappeared outside.
They picked me up, dragged me away like garbage, and walked straight to the back mountain, where my mother was buried.
A stake had been erected in the clearing behind the village, and I was fastened to it by the villagers with ropes, and everyone who passed by the stake glared at me with disdain and sinister eyes.
Even the kindest old man in the village pointed at me with a stick,
"Evil, the village was originally very peaceful, how could such a little beast appear!"
"Her mother is a bad seed, and her son is naturally a bad seed, and now that their mother and son are united, they want to put the whole village to death, and they can't keep him!"
"Yes, burn him! Burn this naturally bad seed ......"
The villagers gathered around the wooden frame, spit angrily at me, and the crowd was excited, and both adults and children were scolding me for being a beast.
My heart was like ashes, and I looked at everyone indifferently.
Their contorted and hideous faces are simply more terrifying than demons.
At this juncture, no explanation is useless, but I still puff up my last breath and try to awaken their bewitched conscience,
"Everyone was deceived, I didn't harm anyone, let alone poison the well water, these things were all done by the person surnamed Wang, that is, he killed our whole family, and now he wants to harm the people in the village......"
"Shut up, you dare to be disrespectful to Master Wang!"
In response to me, villager Dayong slapped me unceremoniously.
The slap made me dizzy, and my back molars were bleeding.
With my hot cheeks on my cheeks, I raised my head and saw the villagers looking at me with angry eyes.
"Sure enough, it's a natural bad seed, and it's as damn damn as his mother!"
"Damn, it's inhumane, the village raised him so big, and he actually harmed us in turn."
In the midst of the bustling shouting and scolding, the villagers quickly gave way to another passage, and Master Wang, accompanied by the village chief, changed into a yellow Taoist robe, walked in a righteous and awe-inspiring manner, and pointed a peach wood sword at my forehead,
"Well, you debt collector, you have failed the nurturing grace of the villagers, and you are still lying to confuse the public when you are dying, and the poor road has accepted you on behalf of the sky, and you are also regarded as evil and evil."
It's hard to imagine that a person can be hypocritical to this extent if you don't see it with your own eyes.
I raised my godless gaze, looked at Master Wang's face full of justice, and scolded angrily,
"Oh, you're a big man, I've watched too much TV, what kind of old god sticks, if you kill me today, I will become a ghost in the future, and I will kill you!"
It's the first time I've cursed a person with such vicious words, and if the rope hadn't tied me too tightly, I would have jumped up and bitten him.
Master Wang smiled and pressed his forehead against me with pity, "Boy, I'm a ghost catcher, I'm afraid you won't come!" ”
The villagers were excited, "Master Wang, why waste saliva with this bad seed and burn him, my torches are ready." ”
"Yes, this kind of person doesn't need to be excessive, just make him scattered!"
Master Wang raised his hand expressionlessly, signaled everyone to be quiet, put his face to my ear again, and said word by word, "Have you thought about it?" If you don't hand over your things, you'll have to go down with your dead lady. ”
"Fuck you!"
I opened my mouth wide in anger and tried to bite Master Wang's ear, but the old beast reacted quickly, and dodged with a sliding step, revealing an expression of what can you do with me, and said with a sad smile,
"Okay, knowing that you are a filial child, I will satisfy you."
The villagers have already gathered around, adding firewood to the firewood, spitting and spitting, some people are pulling my hair and opening the bow left and right, and some people are pointing and urging the other villagers to hurry up and light the fire!
The scene was a mess, more lively than the Spring Festival, as if collectively enjoying the last carnival of life.
I was already numb, and I stared blankly at the faces of the villagers shaking in front of me, and I actually had an illusion in a trance.
It feels like they are corpses that have been drained of their souls, but they don't know it.
"That's enough, give the child a good time."
In the end, the village chief stood up, pushed away the villager who slapped me, gritted his back molars and said, "Baby, don't blame the uncle, reincarnate as a good person in the next life." ”
Then he raised the torch and threw it hard at the dry wood at my feet.
The flames soon burst into flames, and the smoke cut off my vision, choking on my cough.
Through the wall of fire, the distorted faces of the villagers who came to me, I turned my gaze, but I noticed that the corners of Master Wang's mouth were raised, revealing a full mockery and evil smile.
Wrong.
My mother's things haven't arrived yet, how can he burn me to death?
Or is this guy's real target not me, but these bewitched villagers!
