Seeing that they were unwilling to agree to this solution, Zhang Meng had no choice but to say, "Then what better way do you think you can come up with? If so, I'll listen to you."
Zhu Xiaoqing suddenly burst into tears, clutching her mother's hand tightly and yelling, "Mom, I don't want to die. I don't want to marry He Bo. I don't want to. Please save me. I don't want to die."
Mother Zhu looked at her daughter crying like a tearful child and started to cry too.
Seeing this, Zhu Xiaoqian began to worry, and finally looked at Zhu's mother, "Mom, where is my dad? Where did he go?"
Zhu's mother, tears streaming down her face, replied in a hoarse voice, "Your father went to see the village chief early this morning to see if there's any chance of turning this around."
Zhu Xiaoqian's eyes lit up at this moment, and she suddenly grabbed Zhang Meng's arm and said, "Comrade Zhang, come with me to the village chief's house. Perhaps the village chief can think of a solution for us."
She knew that the village chief was also reluctant to contribute a girl to the River God every ten years.
Because the girl who was offered there ten years ago was the village chief’s youngest daughter.
Therefore, Zhu Xiaoqian firmly believed that the village chief must want to eliminate the so-called River God in the river just like her.
Zhang Meng was pulled by Zhu Xiaoqian and ran in small steps for a while before stopping outside a tile-roofed house.
"This is the home of our village chief." Zhu Xiaoqian explained to Zhang Meng before entering.
As soon as I entered the yard, a big dog ran over and started to bark.
As a result, it didn't even open its mouth, but when it saw Zhang Meng, it immediately retreated obediently to the corner of the wall and lay down.
Zhu Xiaoqian looked at the well-behaved big dog with a curious look on her face. "Why is the big dog in the village chief's house acting abnormally today? Every time I came here before, it would rush over and bark at me before letting me in. But today it didn't bark at me."
Zhang Meng's mouth curled up, and her hand seemed to touch the white circle on her neck. It seemed that the dog in the village chief's house was not too stupid. It actually smelled the scent of Xiaobai on her.
Zhu Xiaoqian took Zhang Meng's hand and walked to the door of the village chief's house.
The atmosphere inside was a bit depressing. The two grown men sitting there heard footsteps and looked towards the door together.
"How did you get in? I didn't seem to hear my dog barking." Village chief Zhu was surprised when he saw Zhu Xiaoqian and Zhang Meng coming in.
Zhu Xiaoqian laughed and said, "Village Chief, is your big dog sick today? When we came in, it saw us but didn't bark."
Village Chief Zhu frowned. "Sick? That's impossible. My dog ate quite a bit this morning. It doesn't look like it's sick."
At this time, Zhu's father saw Zhang Meng standing next to his daughter and realized that this female comrade was not from their village.
"Xiao Qian, who is this?" Father Zhu asked, pointing at Zhang Meng.
Zhu Xiaoqian immediately took Zhang Meng's hand and walked in front of them. With a serious expression on her face, she said, "Village Chief, Dad, I have something to tell you. I found the person who can deal with He Bo."
Village chief Zhu and Zhu's father were both shocked.
The two of them tried hard to suppress the anxious expressions on their faces.
Village Chief Zhu took several deep breaths before asking Zhu Xiaoqian, "Xiaoqian, is what you just said true? Did you really find the person who dealt with that monster? Where is she? Take me there quickly."
Zhu Xiaoqian smiled and immediately moved forward, revealing Zhang Meng who was standing behind her.
At this moment, Village Chief Zhu and Zhu's father immediately opened their eyes wide in disbelief.
"Xiao Qian, you don't mean to say that this is the master you were talking about, right?" Father Zhu looked at Zhu Xiaoqian a little angrily.
Zhu Xiaoqian was stunned, not knowing why her father was so angry, but she nodded honestly, "Yes, Dad, the master I'm talking about is Comrade Zhang. Comrade Zhang is a fortune-teller, and she can deal with that Heba monster."
The smile on Village Chief Zhu's face slowly faded, but he still said politely, "Xiao Qian, I know you want to save your sister Xiao Qing. I understand your feelings, but you can't just bring someone here and say she can help us get rid of that monster He Bo. This matter is not to be taken lightly, do you understand?"
As soon as Zhu Xiaoqian heard what they said, she knew that they did not disbelieve what she said.
So he looked towards Zhang Meng anxiously. "Comrade Zhang, tell them, they don't believe what I say."
Finally, she looked at Zhang Meng, who was standing calmly, for help.
Zhang Meng smiled and looked at Father Zhu and Village Chief Zhu, "My name is Zhang Meng, and I'm a fortune teller."
Village Chief Zhu smiled respectfully, "Witch Zhang, it's not that we don't want to believe in your abilities, it's just that this matter cannot be taken lightly. Don't you know that the River God is very stingy? If he knew I sent someone to deal with it, it would be fine if he succeeded, but if he didn't, my entire village would suffer. I really can't afford to take that risk."
Zhang Meng nodded in understanding. "I understand your concerns. Don't worry, I will show you my true strength."
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhang Meng curled her lips and said slowly, "Village Chief Zhu, have you been feeling cold from time to time recently? Even though the sun is shining brightly outside, you still feel cold. Am I right?"
Village Chief Zhu was stunned, looking at her with wide eyes. Zhang Meng raised the corner of her mouth slightly and continued, "Also, for the past six months, you have heard the sound of water dripping around you every night when you fell asleep. I am not wrong."
She revealed two of his secrets in succession. If Village Chief Zhu still had any doubts about Zhang Meng before, he no longer has any doubts now.
