Upon hearing the sound, Li Jing also saw the person walking towards him.
He walked over with the clan chief.
The shaman paused, following their gaze towards the village entrance.
Lin Hong turned around and saw the person being held by the Jiang family servants; his pupils contracted.
Song Chengfeng winked at the eighth and ninth brothers beside him.
The two men went to the front and back of the Li people respectively, clapping their hands to attract their attention.
"Everyone, don't leave yet!"
The snake has been driven away; there's no danger for now!
"Don't you all want to know why there are so many venomous snakes?"
"Does everyone really believe that it was Mother Li's decree?"
"With everyone so devout, how could Mother Li allow poisonous snakes to attack you?!"
......
The eighth and ninth sons' suggestive intent was obvious, and both the witch doctor and Lin Hong knew it; they were further steer the conversation towards Mother Li's instructions...
The tribespeople would recall what the shaman had said: the snake would attack the person who brought them bad luck...
The witch doctor and Lin Hong both condemned it.
"shut up!"
"Shut up!"
The sound was so loud that it finally attracted the attention of the Li people who were retreating.
Everyone turned to look in this direction.
Compared to the expressions of the Da Yin people, the expressions of the shaman and the deputy clan chief were ones they had never seen before.
Cold-hearted and cruel.
As the group returning from the village entrance drew closer, and seeing no sign of snakes, the chieftain ordered guards to stand watch around the area to prevent the venomous snakes from attacking again...
Li Ren calmed down and slowly turned back, waiting for the reason why the young lady's subordinate had been restrained...
And tonight's snake attack—it all seems so eerie...
The clan chief stepped forward and recognized the two men being held captive by Jiang's men as his daughter Li Jing's subordinates.
Li Sheng stood to the side, holding a pile of herbs, his eyes red-rimmed, looking at the two of them angrily.
Jiang's men dragged the two men forward; they were surrounded by Li ethnic guards, so there was no worry about them escaping...
He then consciously stepped back and returned to the side of young master Jiang Xinyu.
"Li Sheng, what happened? Tell me!"
Clan Chief Li Guang spoke.
Li Jing's gaze was fixed on his two subordinates, and...
On the medicinal herbs that Li Sheng was holding.
She had already guessed roughly what was going on.
When the eldest brother of the Song family reminded her, she was not without surprise, after all, he was her subordinate who had followed her for a long time...
Now that they've been caught red-handed, it's no wonder they're terrified!
Just as Li Sheng was about to speak, several cold arrows suddenly shot over from the sky!
Jiang's men tried to intervene, but the distance was too great, and it was too late...
With lightning-fast reflexes, Li Jing leaped forward and deflected the hidden arrow, just as two gasps of surprise rang out beside him...
"ah!"
"puff!"
Li Sheng was crouched down, protected by Li Jing. He felt unsafe; his two subordinates, who had just been twisted and abused...
He was shot in the forehead and throat respectively, gurgled a few times, spat out a mouthful of blood, and died.
Li Jing searched for Song Chengfeng's whereabouts as if seeking help.
From a distance, Song Chengfeng shook his head at her.
But unable to resist her gaze, Song Chengfeng stepped forward to check their pulses...
They're completely dead; there's nothing we can do.
The fourth, fifth, and ninth brothers had already surrounded their eldest brother and the others, as had the monk and Jiang's men.
The tragedy happened so fast that, almost in the blink of an eye, two lives were lost.
Before he was convicted, Li Jing felt terrible that his subordinate, who had been with him for many days, died with his eyes wide open in disbelief.
What's even more unsettling is that the village actually has such a powerful mobilization force.
She had just clearly been observing the actions of Lin Hong and his son, along with the witch doctor, and was worried that they might fight to the death...
Before they even made any move, a sneak attack was launched...
With such accuracy, neither he nor his men noticed.
The same goes for the Song family and Jiang family's subordinates; some of them are probably even more skilled than him...
No one noticed.
Upon discovering the problem with the harvested medicinal herbs, he and the Song brothers acted secretly, without making a fuss...
And that night, many unexpected things happened; she didn't notice anyone taking advantage of the chaos to go down the mountain, and she discovered that the poisoning had been exposed...
In other words, no one knew what was going on before the two henchmen were brought back...
Even so, they could still be killed by a stray arrow that went unnoticed!
With such a capable person and such a powerful force in the village, she really couldn't think of anyone else.
After closing the eyes of his two former subordinates, Li Jing stood up and looked at Lin Hong and his son, as well as the witch doctor. Their expressions remained unchanged...
Aside from Lin Sen's impatience and a hint of smugness in his eyes...
Feeling awkward as Li Jing stared directly at her, she looked away.
"Li Sheng, continue! What just happened?"
Following the direction from which the cold arrow came, Li Jing used his entire back to shield Li Sheng.
