The man in the village paused, not knowing what to do, and looked at the elder opposite.
The elder looked at A Yan and then signaled everyone to let go. With so many people around, he was not afraid that this kid would play tricks. If he dared to play tricks, he would be risking his life!
A Yan was released. He picked up the bottle, opened the medicine bottle, put a drop of medicine in it and started to eat it.
Everyone stared at him closely, fearing that he was playing tricks. Ah Yan did not play tricks. He ate one drop, or even a drop more, before stopping and looking straight at the elder opposite.
The elder then said, "Take it and test it."
"Elder, their words are unbelievable!" The men in the village still felt they couldn't trust these two people. Even Wei Xiaoxiao, their relative, couldn't be trusted, let alone these people. They might be even more ruthless. After all, that enchanting woman was obviously not a good person. She would attract snakes!
A Yan felt that there was no time left. He didn't know how long Zhang Xingrong could hold on, nor did he know when Wei Xiaoxiao and the others would come.
"Elder, we suspect Wei Xiaoxiao wants to die with you. We have something important to discuss with you!"
The men in the village sneered, "We're going to die together, just relying on her? Elder, arrest them, they can't be trusted. That woman can attract snakes, she must be an unclean witch, an evil spirit, arrest her!"
The elder didn't quite believe Ah Yan's words, but still ordered: "You go out first and block the door. Don't let anyone in."
Several men from the village who had captured A Yan and Lao Bai went out, leaving behind two to protect the elders, as they were worried that Lao Bai and A Yan might be up to something.
The elder then said to Lao Bai and A Yan disdainfully: "Do you think we are easy to deceive?"
"Do you think we took the risk to come here just to trick you?" Ah Yan snorted coldly, "I might as well take the risk of running away instead of coming here to find you!"
"It's hard to say. After all, the enemy can be cunning at times, and it's not impossible for them to use us as spies!" The elder's eyes were sharp. He was an elder because he had a certain wisdom and didn't just believe everything others said. Otherwise, their village would have been gone long ago. During the war, it was the unity of the village that helped them overcome the difficulties.
He had led the village through so many hardships, but he never expected that he would be threatened by a little girl. But there was nothing he could do, because Xiao girl had the leverage over them.
A Yan paused for a moment and asked, "Elder, do you know what Wei Xiaoxiao studied before?"
They didn't know at first, but after Zhang Xingrong analyzed it for them, they felt it made sense. Wei Xiaoxiao was insane, and there was a high probability she would do something like this!
The elder was stunned for a moment, not knowing what he was thinking of. His expression suddenly changed: "What do you think..."
"That's right!" The elder was interrupted by A Yan before he could finish his words. "Of course, we are just guessing. If you think it's unbelievable, you can test Wei Xiaoxiao. But I tell you, time is running out. Our people are coming. You have to hurry!"
It was impossible for the two of them to leave. Not only was it impossible, but if they did, they would undoubtedly be discovered. But the people in the village were different; they could come and go as they pleased. As long as they found Lu Ran and prevented him from entering the border town, and then joined forces with them from outside, along with the help of the elders, they had a good chance of resolving this crisis.
