Chapter 103: Still Feeling Fearful

Liang Huanxue didn't know where she took out that spider web-like thing from, but she caught all the insects in one go.

"Yeah." Liang Huanxue didn't know how to explain the origin of the spider web, so she could only accept it vaguely.

After I go back, I have to say goodbye to Liang Jiajiang and don't show any secrets.

Probably frightened by Liang Huanxue's bow and crossbow, the people from Tagang Village stopped following them. They successfully reached the cave where the ox cart was hidden.

As a result, the fence at the entrance of the cave was destroyed and the ox cart disappeared.

However, the tire tracks on the ground looked fresh, so I guess they hadn’t walked far.

Liang Huanxue followed the wheel tracks and soon caught up with the ox cart.

Zhou had never driven a bullock cart before, so the bullock didn't listen to her very much. It kept stopping and starting and getting mad at her.

Liang Huanxue stepped forward, pulled her off the ox cart, and took the reins into her own hands.

"You are such a vicious person. You tricked us here and wanted to sacrifice us."

The Liang family finally figured out the whole story and felt a surge of resentment in their hearts that they couldn't help but express.

And now Zhou is the best person to vent.

Zhou knelt on the ground and kowtowed continuously, "I... I was forced by them. If I didn't do this, they would have captured Xier and sacrificed her, because there is no one in the surrounding villages who can be deceived.

They force us to go to faraway places to deceive people, and if we fail to deceive people, we have to sacrifice our own families.”

"So, in order to keep your family alive, you set your sights on us? You really have a good plan. Who on earth is that Linchuan?" Old Mrs. Liang was so angry that she was shaking all over.

She already knew that Zhou was not a good person, but who could have thought that he could be so bad?

"Master Linchuan came to save us. Because of him, we were able to survive." When Zhou mentioned Linchuan, a look of reverence emerged on his originally frightened face.

"If he really came to save you, how could he let you kill innocent people?" Old Mrs. Liang almost vomited when she heard this.

At first glance, Linchuan was a hypocritical gentleman who pretended to be righteous, and he was not a Taoist priest at all.

"No, no! Master Linchuan doesn't know. He always thought we caught prey for sacrifice. That's what we told him. If he knew we used humans, he would definitely stop us." Zhou defended.

"So, in your eyes, he is so powerful and can be your savior, but he doesn't know what you are doing secretly?" Liang Huanxue really wanted to laugh.

They were so severely brainwashed that they worshipped Linchuan as a god in their hearts and could not bear to hear anyone say anything bad about him.

And he could even try to explain to him in a roundabout way that all the bad things were done by them and it had nothing to do with Linchuan.

"They treated you like this, have you ever thought of complaining to Linchuan? He will definitely seek justice for you." Liang Huanxue said again.

"I...I also did something wrong." Zhou hesitated for a long time before explaining the reason.

Before them, Zhou had cheated other people.

Those who were deceived may have already been sacrificed.

"Crazy people, what a bunch of lunatics!" Old Mrs. Liang couldn't help but spit.

I'm afraid that everyone in Tagang Village has been brainwashed by the man named Linchuan, and everyone's hands are covered in blood.

But she couldn't figure out what Linchuan's purpose was.

What is the point of sacrificing so many people?

"I'm afraid that Linchuan is a wicked person, so he did such a thing. However, even if we report it to the authorities, I'm afraid they won't do anything. Moreover, the people of Tagang Village will stand on Linchuan's side and speak for him. In the end, it will be a thankless task."

Liang Huanxue knew the character of that government office very well.

What's more, they don't have any conclusive evidence.

If the sacrifice was really to be performed by burning to death, those people should have been reduced to ashes and could not be identified.

Who can explain it clearly?

This was not the work of just one or two people, but a whole village.

Just thinking about this, Liang Huanxue felt her stomach churning.

"All we can do is to remind people from other villages not to go to Tagang Village. Once you go there, you can never come back." Old Mrs. Liang couldn't think of any good solution.

The people in Tagang Village have gone crazy and they don't want to get involved.

"They will be punished by God for doing this. Just wait and see." Nian Huayue had just recovered. She leaned against the ox cart and said viciously.

"What do you want?"

"I want to save her! Do you want to watch her die with you in Tagang Village?" Old Mrs. Liang was furious.

She slapped Zhou's face hard, "Are you sober now?"

Zhou's eyes were still filled with madness. "You are the one who should be sober! I have always been sober. Xier will only live a good life with me, the best life. You don't have to worry about it."

After saying that, she turned around and stumbled away.

"Mother, if it weren't for Zhou's help, it would be very difficult to rescue people from Tagang Village. Even if Zhou agreed to help, can we trust her? Even if we really rescued Xier, who can guarantee that Xier can be trusted?"

Seeing that Old Lady Liang had no intention of giving up, Liang Huanxue said something through gritted teeth.

He wanted to let Mrs. Liang know that Linchuan's abilities were extraordinary.

I'm afraid Xier is as devoted to him as the others, and then they will be the only ones who will be in trouble.

Old Lady Liang sighed, "Forget it, let's go back. After daybreak, let's send a message to the surrounding villages and tell them not to be deceived by the people in Tagang Village."

The group walked forward in the night and returned home when the day broke.

The other members of the Liang family also stayed up all night, waiting for them to come back.

As soon as he heard the noise, he rushed out to greet them.

They found that they were the only ones who came back. They looked at each other for a long time. Finally, Wang Xifen asked, "Are you all right?"

"I'm fine!" Liang Huanxue felt dizzy and leaned in Liang Huanxue's arms.

When I heard the question, I answered it unconsciously.

The originally tense atmosphere suddenly disappeared.

"What happened? Was the person rescued?" Shen Yuefu took Liang Huanxue from Liang Huanxue's hands and asked in a low voice.

Liang Huanxue took off the water bag on her body and drank a few sips of water before she told everyone what happened in Tagang Village.

The Liang family was stunned and couldn't believe that such a thing would happen.

"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it. Who would have thought that Zhou was a liar? Fortunately, we were able to return safely because of Huanxue." Nian Huayue recalled what happened last night and still felt a lingering fear.

If they hadn't brought Huanxue with them, they would probably not have seen the sun by now.
