Chapter 495: Confession
Yue Fuli watched the village chief's expression change from time to time, his eyes cold as he said, "Village chief, you should know why I brought you here, right?"
The village chief wanted to say that he didn't know, but when he looked at Yue Fuli's all-knowing eyes, he was speechless.
"Tell me, where is the old lady?"
The village chief did not answer immediately. Instead, he looked at Yue Fuli and asked, "If I confess voluntarily, can you spare my life?"
"What do you think?" Yue Fuli looked at the other party indifferently. If you do something wrong, you have to pay the price.
However, the crime did not extend to his wife and children. If he confessed voluntarily, she might consider showing leniency and not harming them.
Otherwise, based on what he had done, it would be enough for her to destroy his entire family.
Therefore, when the other party was disappointed after hearing what he said, Yue Fuli added: "But I can spare your family."
"Are you serious?" The village chief was a little excited and a little bit unbelieving. He could see that Yue Fuli was not the kind of person who would be soft-hearted, and certainly not one who would show mercy to others.
What he did this time touched her bottom line, so he would definitely not survive. If his wife and children could survive, that would be good, at least there would be incense left.
"Of course!" Yue Fuli nodded. Originally, she wanted to kill the village chief's family, but then she thought, "every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt has its creditor." Why bother involving irrelevant people and creating more wronged souls?
"Okay, I'll tell you!" The village chief immediately recounted how he had his wife trick the old lady into coming and how he handed her over.
When he finished speaking, he thought of Yue Fuli's question about where the old lady was, and said, "They should have taken the old lady to the capital. If you want to look for her, you can look in this direction."
"Since you've taken the initiative to confess, I'm giving you a chance to choose. Do you want to solve it yourself, or do you want me to do it?"
The village chief hesitated for a moment, then said, "I'll handle it myself."
"Okay!" Yue Fuli nodded, watched the village chief stand up, find a thick tree, and then lowered his head to bump into it.
The collision was really painful. But the village chief didn't die, and he felt a little regretful. If he had known that hitting the tree would hurt so much, and that he wouldn't die, he might as well have let Yue Fuli do it.
Now, if he were to bump into her again, it would definitely not work. Therefore, he could only look at Yue Fuli with pleading eyes, asking her to help him.
Yue Fuli looked at the other person speechlessly, and with a slight movement of her fingertips, an embroidery needle directly entered the village chief's body.
As the embroidery needle entered, the village chief's breath gradually became weaker and finally disappeared.
After dealing with the village chief, Yue Fuli didn't stay in the back mountain for long. She had to go find the old lady. No matter how much she hated her, she was still their grandmother.
Knowing her whereabouts but remaining indifferent is unfilial. If others knew about it, they would criticize you.
However, before that, she had to settle her brothers and sisters. If she went to the capital alone, everything would be easy. But if she took her brothers and sisters with her, it would be much more troublesome.
Those people couldn't do anything to her, so they might repeat the same trick and start with her younger brothers and sisters to force her to commit the crime.
She would then be forced into a dilemma. Instead of that, it would be better to send her brothers and sisters to a safe place first.
It will be the same if we bring them out again after the threats are gone and there is no more danger.
