Chapter 90 Clues



This situation was entirely within Song Chenghou's expectations.

After all, what they are doing now is, to some extent, relieving the pressure on Deputy Chief Lin Hong.

He really didn't need to proactively remind his clansmen...

When there are no materials to repair the houses and no food to eat, they come here to cause trouble...

But the witch doctor was different; from the very beginning, he targeted the Song family, even using Li's mother's name...

The truth is, it has been proven wrong time and time again.

Regardless of injuries or current shortages of materials and food, those helping the Li people are all people from the Dayin clan, as identified by the shaman...

The more favorable the Li people's impression of the Song family became, the less trust and reverence they held for the shaman...

Even if the Song family comes down the mountain, it doesn't mean that this idea won't take root in the hearts of the Li people.

Song Chengliang continued, "I stood guard behind the house of Deputy Clan Chief Lin Hong, and he didn't come out of the house the entire time, not even to spy on us..."

She has a lot of composure.

Jiang Xinyu had already mastered the art of grilling skewers. He divided them among the three of them and was about to give two skewers to Song Chenghou, but Song Chenghou politely declined and instead gave them back to his younger brothers.

Song Chengliang took a bite of the meat skewer, and even with his excellent cooking skills, he couldn't help but give Jiang Xinyu a thumbs up, his eyes lighting up.

Jiang Xinyu had naturally heard about Song Chengliang's cooking skills, and the fact that he had gained Song's approval made him even more motivated.

He wielded the seasoning powder with great gusto, tirelessly.

Song Chengliang ate a few more bites, finally suppressing his hunger, and continued:

"Lin Sen is quite hostile towards us and has been paying close attention to our movements and those of the Li people."

To my surprise, Lin Bei, the eldest son of the Lin family, seems to rarely show his face, but he must be quite extraordinary.

Because Lin Sen was aggressive; before going to find Lin Hong, he went to find Lin Bei first...

After coming out, my anger subsided considerably...

He seemed to have great reverence for his elder brother.

Song Chenghou nodded. He didn't need to think too much to guess the clue.

The clan leader was highly respected, but had only one daughter.

Upon arriving in a Li village, one can easily sense the importance placed on male offspring, especially in more underdeveloped areas.

No matter how capable the clan chief Li Guang was, without a son, it was inevitable that his subordinates would become ambitious.

Judging from the current situation, the witch doctor has probably reached some kind of agreement with the deputy chieftain, favoring the deputy chieftain's side.

The deputy chieftain was ambitious and had two sons, so he naturally believed that his family was the only choice to become the next chieftain.

Having met Lin Sen several times, I found him to be rash and impulsive, clearly not the best choice.

During last night's conflict, Lin Beiyi stood at the back of the crowd, observing them discreetly...

Lin Hong is probably betting his fortunes on his eldest son.

"Continue," Song Chenghou said.

The fifth brother, Song Chengyu, added, "I'm in charge of keeping an eye on Lin Hong and Lin Bei..."

People were constantly going in and out of Lin Bei's house, but he himself never came out.

Lin Sen, on the other hand, keeps coming and going, clearly disliking us, but he doesn't dare do anything to us...

I saw it, and I was so worried for him!

Song Chenghou nodded, not in a hurry to refute, and looked at the ninth brother, Song Chengyuan.

Song Chengyuan was starving. He ate a few sweet potatoes and taro, and then a few skewers of grilled meat before he felt a little full.

He straightened up and said, "Brother, I'm in charge of keeping an eye on the witch doctor."

He never left his house; the Li people helped him repair the roof.

He didn't come out even during the renovation process.

I can't quite put my finger on it, but something just feels off.

Song Chengjian walked over, and when they saw him, everyone lowered their voices and did not avoid him.

Just then, Song Chengjian overheard Song Chengyuan speaking and laughed, "Not surprising? Of course not!"

Who doesn't hide outside when they're repairing their house?

Is it leaking dust inside, or what if it gets hit?

Or perhaps he wasn't in there at all.

Or perhaps they're too proud to admit it and are secretly plotting something big!

Song Chengyuan was startled and immediately recalled that indeed, from the time he rushed over that morning until he was replaced by Jiang's men...

The witch doctor was never seen.

Whether the witch doctor was inside the house is hard to say.

"Have you checked the number of people who went into Lin Hong and Lin Bei's house?"

Do the people who went in match the people who came out?

Song Chenghou looked at the fourth and fifth brothers.
