Although I was tired, something seemed to have changed.
The next morning arrived in the blink of an eye. On the bluestone slab square in front of Shen Qingyu's house, everyone gathered together and began to slaughter the pig.
The pig's heart-wrenching screams echoed throughout Shenjia Village, causing everyone to silently swallow their saliva.
