Capítulo 1732: Chapter 1732: Xiao Yu
The noble who just entered the village last night actually wants to cut down the locust tree at the Fan Family ancestral ho. While everyone was very surprised, they were also very curious as to why these noble people would do such a thing.
So busybodies even ran to the tattered house at the village end to tell the only descendant of the Fan Family that soone was moving his ancestral ho’s things.
At the village end, in front of a dilapidated house, a young man wearing patched clothes, about seventeen or eighteen years old, was sitting on a low bamboo chair, holding a chipped bowl, slurping white porridge.
“Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu.” In the distance, a young man of the sa age ran over.
“Xiao Feng? What’s wrong?” Xiao Yu raised his head in surprise. Ever since he moved here, no one in the village liked to talk to him. Why was soone coming to find him today? He was filled with doubt.
Xiao Feng ran over and pulled him up to leave.
“What’s going on? Where are we going?”
“Oh, there’s no ti to explain, we’ll talk as we go.” Xiao Feng pulled Xiao Yu, talking as they ran.
After running a few steps, Xiao Yu stopped and said, “If you don’t tell what’s going on, I’m not going anywhere.”
“Oh, co on! It’s urgent. Fine, I’ll tell you, a few foreigners have moved into your house.”
“What’s so strange about that? I knew about it last night.”
Last night a few foreigners ca into the village, and the whole village was abuzz. How could he not know? Because of this matter, the village head even specially bought a rabbit from the neighboring village, and everyone in the village knew.
“No, no, oh! You…” Xiao Feng was so anxious he didn’t know what to say!
“Is there sothing else going on?” Seeing Xiao Feng so anxious, Xiao Yu asked again.
“They… they want to cut down the old locust tree at your house.”
“If they want to cut it, let them, it’s not worth much money.” He said, turning to go back inside. Suddenly, his whole body froze, turning his head, looking at Xiao Feng in amazent and saying, “What did you just say? Say it again?”
“I’m telling you to go ho and see, don’t let those outsiders take over your ancestral ho!”
“Not that sentence.”
“They want to cut down your huge locust tree.”
“What did you say? They want to cut down our locust tree.” As soon as Xiao Yu heard, he was imdiately anxious, threw the broken bowl in his hand to the ground, turned and ran, moving as fast as a rabbit, leaving Xiao Feng far behind.
Fan Family.
Long Rui pulled the village head aside and solemnly recounted to him what happened last night.
The village head was astonished, “Young man, is it possible you ca to our village and had so sort of reaction to the environnt, leading you to have nightmares? How could there be a corpse inside the tree?”
The locust tree at the Fan Family is so lush, if it were really hollow inside, could it grow this well?
The village head did not believe Long Rui.
“Village head, human lives are at stake; this is no trifling matter. Have you thought about why Fan Family’s Lao Er and Lao San suddenly disappeared? Do you really believe the rumor that the eldest took them away?”
“No, no, Xiao Yu said they went to town for work!”
“Do you believe that?”
“Yes, previously the eldest often went for work too, sotis not coming ho for a year or more. They’ve only been missing for half a year, which is within the normal range.”
Long Rui’s face turned stern, “Village head, as the village head of Chen Family Village, you should be responsible for the lives and properties of the villagers. Since soone has raised a question to you, you should investigate rather than saying it falls within the normal range and letting it go at that.”
To make the village head cooperate with the Prince’s investigation, Long Yi took out the Token from his chest and showed it to the village head.
