Chapter 1694: Chapter 1694: Trouble Arises (2)
“Bewitching Technique?” Yang Mancang felt his mind scattered. He’s just an ordinary villager, a mud-legged peasant. How could such a thing as Bewitching Technique appear in the village?
“It’s a sinister art where won beguile n and then absorb their essence to cultivate power,” Yang Ruxin explained simply to the crowd. “To practice such a craft, one must continuously… absorb the yang energy and essence…”
“What… what happens then?” Lizheng couldn’t help but ask.
“Once the essence is absorbed, the person becos akin to a dried husk. Even if only a little is absorbed and one doesn’t die imdiately, it still shortens their lifespan…”
The crowd all took a sharp intake of breath.
“However, as long as one is not a greedy man who loves to take advantage, it’s hard to fall prey to it. Especially soone full of righteous spirit, the techniques won’t work on them,” Yang Ruxin quickly added.
Only then did the crowd let out a sigh of relief.
“But what should we do about it now?” Li Xin, the village head of Xiaobudong, frowned.
Everyone’s eyes turned to Yang Ruxin.
“Naturally, we report it to the authorities,” Yang Ruxin shrugged. She wouldn’t take this upon herself voluntarily. After all, this involves murder, and while folks say nothing now, who can guarantee they won’t in the future? Gu Qingheng and Gu Yao both serve the Imperial Court, and Xiaofeng will have to study for official exams in the future. She wouldn’t leave them any leverage.
Everyone naturally had no objections. Lizheng took the lead and sent soone hurriedly to the county to report the matter.
As for Wang Sheng’s family and Zheng Kuan’s father and daughter, they needed to be discussed and resolved collectively, as it concerns two villages and involves two families.
Although the Wang Family and Zheng Family don’t have many clan mbers, they do have so, and moreover, Lin Yue’e’s side also involves the Lin Family. Although this is rely an indecent incident, it affects not only the reputation of these families but also several villages.
Therefore, handling this requires great caution.
Of course, this matter was not Yang Ruxin’s responsibility, and she wouldn’t get involved.
However, she did take action to wake up Wang Sheng and the others.
Because it was already late at the ti, everyone separated them and watched over them at the Wang Family’s place, preparing to deal with it specifically the next day.
i Xiang and the Zong Family are taken away by Xie Zhanfei with his n. Anyway, the two have been drugged, so they won’t recover within three days, and she needn’t worry about them escaping.
However, an incident occurred that night.
When those people regained consciousness, they discovered the chaotic situation. The first to collapse was Zheng Xiaohua. The little girl was just twelve, still tender. She had been controlled by the Zong Family with drugs all along, not knowing what she was doing. Once she woke up, she was utterly devastated and ramd her head against the wall…
It’s said her brain splattered on the spot.
A budding flower withered just like that.
Zheng Kuan, upon seeing his daughter’s corpse, rushed out directly and plunged into the Xiaocang River… Days later, his body was found downstream, but that’s a story for another ti.
The people on the Wang Family’s side were relatively stronger. Lin Yue’e didn’t even cry.
However, Wang Wen, after regaining consciousness, visibly withered at a shocking speed, almost becoming a dried corpse… He had been drained of his vitality by i Xiang, and even Gods couldn’t save him…
Wang Wu beca ntally vacant.
Before the village could even make a judgnt, Wang Sheng fled with Lin Yue’e and his youngest son Wang Wu. As for where they went, no one knows.
