Hearing everyone's unanimous opposition to eating the "ox and horse" he had brought back, Nan Ke didn't force them. He sighed regretfully, "Alright then, if none of you are willing to eat her, I'll just bury her first."
"Wait!" Feng Guang finally shouted, "Why are you burying me!?"
He looked down at her and saw that her cheeks were flushed with nervousness. He said matter-of-factly, "I can't let you waste food."
She couldn't refute this reason!
"Village Chief!" This time it was Wen Xiu who spoke up, "You can't just take people's lives!"
Nan Ke was puzzled again, "Why?"
“Murder is a heinous crime, and besides, this girl isn’t a particularly evil person. Let’s let her go!” This was the most painful thing for Wenxiu. The newly appointed village chief was still clueless, like a newborn child with no sense of right and wrong. But there were quite a few children in the village. The village chief thought that fighting and killing were nothing, but Wenxiu, as a father, was terrified that his daughter would be led astray!
Moreover, he is a law-abiding villager who has only ever killed chickens and has never hurt anyone. He would feel uneasy if he watched a little girl lose her life in their village!
Nan Ke listened to Wen Xiu's words and did not object. He was in a state of slowly absorbing knowledge and culture. In other words, since others said that this should be done, he felt that he should do it too. He said, "Okay, I will let her leave."
Feng Guang breathed a sigh of relief.
"However, I need to go to Doctor Sun first to get some medicine to make her brain go blank."
Feng Guang had just felt relieved, but now the weight has been lifted again!
Wenxiu asked, still puzzled, "Village Chief, why did you do this?"
“I thought you would like to eat her, so I didn’t cover her eyes when we came. She knows how to get to Anyun Village.”
Feng Guang hurriedly said, "Don't worry! I have no sense of direction and can't remember directions!"
Although she was speaking loudly, she also noticed that Wenxiu, who had been speaking up for her, had become strangely quiet. Not only that, but the children and others were all looking at her with indifferent eyes.
Feng Guang felt a chill run down her spine, and a sense of foreboding reached its peak. She took a step back and said cautiously, "I think the mountains and water here are beautiful, so... I might as well stay here and not go out anymore."
Let's stay here safely for now, and wait until her magic power is restored... Once she's restored, she'll definitely tie this man up with ropes and torture him first!
Seeing that these people still didn't react, Feng Guang desperately tried to sell himself again, "I...I...I can farm! Don't let my small size fool you, I'm really good at farm work, and I can...I can build houses! I can read and write, and I can teach children to read...and washing clothes and cooking are a piece of cake for me!"
It's unclear what she said, but the villagers, who hadn't reacted before, suddenly spoke up: "She can cook!"
"Yes, I heard it too. She said she can cook!"
A group of people started chatting excitedly, and even Wenxiu excitedly said to Nan Ke, "Village Chief, you can't make her stupid, she can cook!"
The group of children ran over excitedly, grabbed Fengguang's hand and shook it, exclaiming, "Pretty sister can cook! That's great!"
The scenery is silent... Here, being able to cook seems to be a very impressive thing?
Nan Ke nodded, looking at the scenery with a hint of regret in his voice, "Since you can cook, then I can't let you become stupid."
"Oh..." she replied perfunctorily, not daring to say a word. In fact, she didn't know how to cook at all. The phrase "washing clothes and cooking" was just something she said offhand like a rhyme.
But looking at how excited these people are...
She was certain that it was best not to reveal the truth; she was afraid that if these people knew the truth, they would use her as food...
