Chapter 179

This remark made the villagers discuss again.

Whether the mountain stream is near or far, if they were to go back to the days of carrying water, most people would not be able to bear it.

They can continue to use poisonous well water, but they are worried about the premature aging that Yao Suyu mentioned.

While everyone was arguing, someone came out to question: "Doctor Yao, why are you so sure that the well water is poisonous? We all feel sweet and delicious when we drink it, and even the doctor of the Wang family praised the water when he was alive."

"You also said that it was when the Wang Family Langzhong was alive."

Seeing that they refused to believe her, Yao Suyu motioned them to stretch out their hands to check for themselves.

Inside and outside the poison, you can find a thing or two by looking at the nails.

"There is also a folk saying that if the roots of fingernails turn purple and black, there is a symptom of poisoning."

When she was taking care of the children with Yingniang, she noticed that Yingniang's fingernails were light purple, and the other villagers should be similar.

The villagers had never noticed such small details before, but now, under Yao Suyu's reminder, they checked one by one, only to find that the roots of everyone's nails were somewhat purple, some deep and some light.

The deepest ones are those who have lost their hair and teeth.

In this way, the villagers finally believed Yao Suyu's words.

But they are used to living here, and now they are asked to move out, and they don't know where to go for a while.

"I have asked Master Chu to decide for you on this matter."

Yao Suyu looked at Chu Lian, she knew that Chu Lian was the one who made decisions before moving, since he was able to propose the relocation of the village, he must have found a place for them.

Chu Lian was not in a hurry to announce the matter. He asked Wang Zhong to ask the villagers for their opinions first to see how many were willing to move away.

Wang Zhong repeatedly explained the situation to the villagers, explaining all the truths.

The young people supported Wang Zhong's opinion, but the older generation did not believe in the post-event retaliation that Wang Zhong was worried about.

An elderly elder pointed to Yao Suyu and Chu Lian and said, "Doctor Yao and Master Chu are from the government! They know the situation in our village, and they will never let those people plot against us!
Besides, there are 180 people in the whole village, and I don't believe that the government wants to kill us one by one!

If this matter gets out, what is the majesty of the court? "

His words were also very convincing, and everyone was in a dilemma.

Chu Lian looked at these people who were lucky to him, and ordered Zhuifeng to bring out the imperial physician who had neglected his duty earlier.

A moment later, Zhuifeng brought an imperial physician to everyone.

At this moment, the villagers were blushing from the contention, unaware of their actions.

Before everyone could react, Chu Lian drew out the long knife at Zhuifeng's waist, and stabbed the imperial physician to death without even thinking about it.

The spurted blood splattered all over the place.

Villagers who have only seen slaughtering pigs and sheep, who have never seen such a bloody scene, were suddenly terrified, and some timid ones already peed their pants on the spot.

"Human life is worthless, Wang Zhong is thinking of you, and he has already found the best way out for you."

Chu Lian looked at the villagers who were suppressed by him, his eyes darkened, his face was also stained with warm blood, and his whole body was like Shura: "Those of you who are willing to move away, there is still a chance of life with Wang Zhong. If If you don’t want to move away, three days later, when the village is massacred, you can choose for yourself.”

After speaking, Chu Lian turned and left.

Yingniang, who was holding the child, was already terrified by this scene, she subconsciously wanted to ask Yao Suyu if what she said was true or not, but just as she approached Yao Suyu, Chu Lian stopped, and said to Yao Suyu behind him, "Let's go. "

Yao Suyu understands that the current situation is threatening, if she softens her heart, she will only completely harm the villagers here.

It was only after she followed Chu Lian back to Yingniang's house that she said, "Is what you just said true?"

"When have I ever lied to someone?"

Chu Lian shook his head, and his eyes were clouded, "If it falls into the hands of the people from Xichang, do you think their end will be better?"

"That's what you said, but if you really want to kill them..."

Yao Suyu couldn't bear it, how could so many people's lives be killed at will like a child's play?

In the ancestral hall, some people originally thought that Chu Lian was just bluffing, looked at the corpse of the imperial physician on the ground and said, "This dog official who cares nothing about human life, if he kills it, he will kill it, there is no pity."

Just when there was still a glimmer of hope in the hearts of the villagers, a short man came over and relayed the conversation between Chu Lian and Yao Suyu to everyone.

Only then did everyone realize that Chu Lian was actually serious.

It's just that some people don't know what the West Factory is. After a short silence, Wang Zhong said to the crowd: "Don't worry about the matter of money. Master Chu is here to save our lives. Next, we will follow Master Chu's orders."

Wang Zhong can be regarded as the toughest guy in the village.

Everyone knows that he is very skilled, and now he has to listen to Chu Lian, and everyone feels even more unhappy.

Although Yingniang didn't know why she had to move out, but since her husband said so, she advised everyone: "Take away the valuable things at home, and everyone should try to keep them as good as possible after you go back. Listen to what Master Chu said. , it’s been two days.”

Yingniang and Wang Zhong returned home.

Wang Zhong took the initiative to report the situation to Chu Lian. Chu Lian put a few banknotes in front of him, and he looked at Wang Zhong, "This is for your settlement expenses. I think this money is enough for the people in the village to build new houses."

Looking at these large banknotes, Wang Zhongxin knew more about Chu Lian.

He knew that at least Chu Lian was not a bad person.

He said lightly: "Thank you, Master Chu."

He can vaguely guess that Chu Lian is probably in a high position now, he doesn't understand, "Since you have such talent, why do you work for that dog emperor? Why don't you—"

"Be careful."

Chu Lian shook his head towards him, even though the village is full of people, but the walls have ears and we have to guard against them.

And according to his experience, the people in this village were trained by Wang Zhong to eavesdrop on corners. If someone with knowledge fell into the hands of Xichang, he would be able to pick it out. I can't.

"I understand."

Sighing, Wang Zhong didn't say anything else, he just urged Yingniang to pack up his things, then gave a military salute to Chu Lian, and then backed out.

Only Chu Lian and Yao Suyu were left in the room.

Yao Suyu found that after he talked with Wang Zhong, his mood seemed to be getting heavier. She asked curiously: "Now that everything is settled, why are you still frowning?"

"It's probably because people in the West Factory always feel that there are extra problems."

Smiling at Yao Suyu, Chu Lian signaled her not to mind, "Forget it, the soldiers come to cover the water and earth, Wei Gaojin himself can't beat me, let alone his subordinates."
