Chapter 56 The Truth
"What's the point of saying this? The drug you gave harmed so many people in the tribe. According to the rules, you will be expelled from the tribe. Do you know that?"
Cheng Linger cried and said, "And I know I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again."
"How can I help you? How can I help you?" Cheng Wei was so angry that he had a heart attack.
When Lu Kui's men arrived, they arrested Cheng Ling'er. No matter how much Cheng Ling'er cried, it was useless.
The Eagle people who were originally controlled were released just like that.
The beastmen also apologized to Chen Yao: "Sorry, we misunderstood you."
"We were too impulsive. It turns out you are also victims."
"The culprit Cheng Ling'er has been arrested. You are innocent."
Everyone in the tribe now feels extremely guilty towards Chen Yao. What they just said was too much.
Chen Yao said magnanimously: "It's okay, as long as the misunderstanding can be resolved."
Chen Yao felt extremely relieved after easily getting rid of Cheng Ling'er, who was always causing trouble for her.
Yunzhi returned to the tribe after finishing her work.
This time, we understood the whole story and knew that the culprit was Cheng Linger. She had been locked up and was awaiting her fate.
Although she didn't sympathize with Cheng Ling'er at all, Yunzhi felt something was strange.
She couldn't help but complain to Qi Chengfeng, "Cheng Ling'er deliberately drugged Chen Yao, but no one around Chen Yao got sick. Isn't that strange? Didn't they eat the food together at the banquet? Could it be that no one around Chen Yao ate a single bite of food yesterday?"
Qi Chengfeng: "I think Chen Yao should have known that there was diarrhea grass in the water a long time ago."
"That's what I thought."
Diarrhea grass has a pungent smell.
That stupid Cheng Ling'er put so much in at once that anyone who didn't have a problem with their nose could smell it.
The people around Chen Yao are not good-for-nothings, how could they not notice it?
It seems that Chen Yao was obviously playing a trick and used the water that Cheng Ling'er drugged him with to make food and gave it to other people to eat.
This has turned a small matter into a big deal.
With this incident, not only can Cheng Linger be driven out of the tribe, but Chen Yao can also dress up as a victim and gain everyone's sympathy.
Yunzhi shook her head.
These people play palace intrigues all day long, and they don't feel tired at all.
Suddenly, an idea flashed through her mind, and Yun Zhizhi curled her lips: "It seems that this time I have to help Cheng Linger. I can't let her be driven away like this."
Although this kind of dog-eat-dog scene is popular, Yunzhi doesn't mind muddying the waters again.
Yunzhi went to find Cheng Wei. At this time, Cheng Wei and Cheng Ling'er's three beastly husbands gathered together, all of them were as anxious as ants on a hot pan.
Even though Cheng Wei scolded Cheng Ling'er so harshly, she was his own daughter after all. Could he really just watch her being driven out?
Without the protection of the snake tribe, Cheng Linger's good days are coming to an end.
Seeing Yunzhi suddenly arrive, they were about to ask her what she was doing, but Yunzhi told them her analysis.
"These are just my guesses. It's up to you whether you believe them or not."
After saying that, Yunzhi left.
Cheng Wei also realized this and quickly sent people to check the people around Chen Yao.
It turned out that Chen Yao was accompanied by a fourth-level wood-type mutant.
How could that psychic not notice such a low-quality herb as diarrhea grass?
It seems that Chen Yao did it on purpose.
When Cheng Wei thought of this, he got a headache from anger.
What was originally just a conflict between two females has now escalated to involve the entire tribe.
Cheng Ling'er was so stupid that she was completely played around by others.
Cheng Wei told Lu Kui about this matter: "Chief, Ling'er did make a mistake, but Chen Yao is definitely not innocent. We can't put all the blame on Ling'er."
"Ling'er was only targeting Chen Yao. She didn't intend to harm anyone else. Ultimately, this was just a dispute between two females. If Chen Yao hadn't deliberately used the water to make food and put it on the banquet for everyone to eat, then the people in the tribe wouldn't have been affected. The actual culprit is Chen Yao."
Lu Kui became extremely impatient when he heard these words.
He just wanted to deal with this matter as soon as possible. As for any conflict between Cheng Linger and Chen Yao, he didn't care at all.
He didn't bother to take Cheng Wei's words to heart: "Don't worry, I can arrange for Cheng Ling'er to go to another tribe."
Cheng Wei: "Can other tribes be the same as here? Ling'er is an outsider. If she goes to other tribes, she will be ostracized and suppressed."
Lu Kui sneered: "So, what do you want?"
Cheng Wei: "I can't drive Ling'er away. She's my only daughter. I can't let her be expelled no matter what."
But Lu Kui did not listen, nor did he withdraw his decision to expel Cheng Ling'er.
Cheng Wei had no choice but to find an opportunity to reveal the truth of the matter in front of everyone.
When the people in the tribe learned the hidden truth, they all gasped and were shocked.
Recalling that no one around Chen Yao was infected, after further inquiries, it turned out that there was indeed a wood-type mutant around Chen Yao who could not have failed to identify the diarrhea grass.
Everyone suddenly realized that they were being used as tools.
To put it bluntly, in this matter, Cheng Linger is stupid, and Chen Yao is extremely bad.
If Cheng Ling'er had poisoned Chen Yao, wouldn't Chen Yao have to be buried with the entire tribe?
Just like that, everyone knew that Chen Yao had deliberately mixed the poison into the food and gave it to everyone to eat.
Everyone thought Chen Yao was also guilty.
Chen Yao firmly denied it, saying that she did not do it and that it was all speculation.
Cheng Wei refused to give in and made a fuss every day.
Force Chen Yao to come out and explain why everyone is taking Chinese medicine, but the people around her don't.
Why is it that there is a fourth-level wood-type mutant next to her, but she can't even recognize a diarrhea grass?
But Chen Yao remained indoors and refused to answer Cheng Wei's questions directly.
Now, many people have the answer in their hearts. If Chen Yao was really innocent, she would have come out and confronted Cheng Wei long ago.
I don't know if it was luck or what.
Just a few days before Cheng Ling'er was about to be sent away, an orc next to Chen Yao accidentally let the cat out of the bag.
Now Cheng Wei was even more determined to keep on keeping this matter, and the people in the tribe were fed up with this farce that had lasted for several days.
Although they hated Cheng Ling'er and Cheng Wei, they now hated the people of the Snake Clan even more.
Play them like fools.
It was clearly just a problem between Cheng Linger and Chen Yao, but they had to drag other innocent people in the tribe into it.
Lu Kui could not ignore the anger of the tribesmen.
In the end, Cheng Linger was not expelled. As for Chen Yao, she ran back to her tribe overnight after the car accident, planning to hide for a while and come back after the snake tribe had forgotten about it.
