I don’t know if it’s because they’re scared or because they’re just unlucky.
It took the remaining three people a quarter of an hour to walk this short distance.
Finally, he stumbled and crawled back home.
When Meng Shijie and the others saw that the doors of both Yang families' houses were closed, they came out from behind a big tree and quickly went home.
"How about it?"
The whole family was still awake, waiting for Meng Shijie to come back and tell their story.
If it wasn't dark and there were children at home, they would all want to go out and watch the fun.
"They really have something up their sleeves!
We will try again tomorrow. I don’t believe they won’t reveal their true colors.
In fact, I think they have exposed their true colors now. If they had nothing to hide, why would they be so scared? "
“Maybe it’s possible.
I remember when I said my cousin Cuihua lived in this village, the village chief's face froze, and he spoke in a tense tone.
The four people from Yongxing also felt that there was something wrong with the two families of the Yang family. Although there were fewer people in other villages, they were not so few.
There are even villages where only two or three households are left, but the original women have basically returned to their parents' homes or remarried, and there are traces of them.
All the women in Sanshan Village who had become widows seemed to have disappeared overnight.
Even some of their children's families could not find their whereabouts.
First of all, the terrain here is relatively good, so they don't have to flee from famine.
Besides, it is in the mountains. Even if the fields don’t produce much, there are still some green plants on the mountains, so there is no need to flee from famine.
Moreover, the terrain here is surrounded by mountains on three sides and has an exit on one side. The feng shui in all aspects is quite good, so there is no need to escape.
But strangely, there was no news of those people.
The reason why Yongxing and the others knew so much was that Yongan went back to the palace today to report the situation in the village to the princess and the prince, and then checked it out by the way.
I also went to the government office, but there was no result.
In the past few years, there was war and famine, and corpses were everywhere. Even if we report this matter to the authorities now, there will be no result. Unless there is solid evidence, we can catch them in one fell swoop.
[It is very likely that the Yang family killed all the orphans and widows who had lost their husbands for money or land, and took away their money, land, and houses.
And finally buried the body in the ground?
Because normal people would never imagine that there would be corpses under the paddy fields, they were buried there to hide it from the public.
The more Meng Shuyan thought about it, the more she felt that this was possible.
The Meng family was horrified when they heard this.
Meng Lihou and Meng Liqian were originally very sleepy, but after hearing what their aunt said, they were frightened and became more alert.
They should never play with the grandson of the Yang family again. That family is too scary and will kill people if they disagree with them.
Especially since the village chief’s wife had threatened to kill them before.
If that were the case, then the numerous corpses in the field would make sense.
Meng Shijie broke down his daughter's guesses and explained them to everyone, who thought they all made sense.
“It doesn’t matter, if they really did it, there would definitely be more loopholes.
If they really did it, they are completely conscienceless and have lost all conscience. They must be beheaded.
Tomorrow we will do this first... and then that..."
The next day, at daybreak, the men continued to go up the mountain to chop wood, leaving Yongping and Wang Liangli, who knew a little carpentry, at home to make tables and stools.
The women from several families were doing needlework.
Meng Shijie continued to pull his old ox and carry the plow into the field.
Village Chief Yang’s two sons are disabled and are being taken care of at home and are temporarily unable to go out.
So Yang Youcai and his eldest son also carried the plow and came out to plow the land, making sure that nothing happened on Meng Shijie's side.
"You two are up so early.
By the way, when you were going back last night, who was the one with long hair at the back?
It's not the right time to go out and about with your hair that long in the middle of the night. It's scary."
Meng Shijie said as he walked, holding the plow.
He even deliberately moved closer to the Yang family, fearing they couldn't hear him, and spoke very clearly.
What's more, after two days of struggle, his hands holding the plow are becoming more and more steady, and he is becoming more and more skilled at plowing.
I feel that farming is not that difficult after all.
"There's no such thing as long hair. Are you dazzled?"
Yang Youcai didn't believe it. He thought Meng Shijie was just talking nonsense.
If ghosts really existed, why hadn't he encountered one once in the past two years?
Is there something fishy waiting for these people to come?
"Hehe, you want to scare me?
I tell you, but you can’t scare me. I’m very brave. If you don’t want to tell me, then don’t tell me.”
Meng Shijie acted as if he was not curious unless you told him, and did not ask any more questions.
His indifferent attitude made Yang Youcai a little suspicious.
"Oh, something is blocking the plowing. Is there a tree root under the field?
Have you ever planted trees before?"
Meng Shijie pretended that the plow could not be pushed anymore and asked Yang Youcai and the others loudly.
When Yang Youcai heard what Meng Shijie said, he dropped what he was holding and ran over immediately.
When Meng Shijie saw the two of them coming, he pushed the plow away again.
He didn't want to be touched by those two.
Although he is unlucky now, he feels much better in the past two days and nothing bad has happened to him.
As Meng Shijie walked forward, he also paid attention to the expressions of Yang Youcai and the others.
Seeing Yang Youcai's relieved expression, he felt that the Yang family must be related to the corpses underground.
After plowing a row of land, Meng Shijie finished work and went home.
After a while, Yang Youcai and his friends also finished work and went home.
