Zhao Dayong easily pried open the village head's mouth.
He moved the oil lamp next to the village head's face, and was about to put it in his mouth when he suddenly realized something was wrong. He looked up and saw the village head staring at him with wide eyes, but his pupils were already unfocused, as if he were dead.
Zhao Dayong's heart skipped a beat. He checked the side of the village head's neck with the hand that was gripping him, and found... no pulse!

How could he be dead? He didn't mean to kill anyone! He just wanted to steal some money to spend; he never intended to kill anyone!
Zhao Dayong panicked and lost his composure, but he quickly calmed down. He couldn't afford to lose his composure; he had to get out of there as soon as possible!

Zhao Dayong turned around and noticed that there were four people standing in the courtyard, two of whom were the Zhu couple, who were the most kind-hearted people in the village.
