Zhu Xiaoxue couldn't persuade Zhu Lin no matter what she did, and the others followed Zhu Lin and went crazy, starting to spread rumors in the village that Su Liuer was a monster.
There are always rumors about demons and monsters among the people. Once they spread, many people believe them.
"Yeah, otherwise why would she suddenly change her personality? She can even make this herbal jelly honey! Now she can even make ice! She must be a monster!"
"She can actually create ice out of thin air in the middle of summer! She must be a monster! I've never heard of such a thing before. She must be some kind of witchcraft!"
"How can we deal with her if she's so powerful?"
"Why not? Good will never triumph over evil! She's a monster and she's afraid of fire. When she comes back, we'll tie her up and burn her to death!"
Crazy, these people are crazy!
Zhu Xiaoxue ran to Wang Gui's house in a panic.
"Li Yin! Hurry, they are crazy! They want to burn Su Liuer to death! Go and stop them!" Zhu Xiaoxue pulled Wang Gui and ran out, explaining to Wang Gui what happened as they ran.
She couldn't let her family become murderers!
When Wang Gui arrived, the villagers were divided into two groups. One group wanted to burn Su Liuer to death, while the other group wanted to protect her. The two sides quarreled and even started fighting. It was a mess.
But it is obvious that those who are calling for war and killing are now the majority.
He also thought these people were crazy!
"Stop! Stop it! Everyone!" He rushed into the crowd, pulled away the leader, and the others followed suit.
He looked at the people headed by the Zhu family and cursed:
"What are you doing?! Are you crazy? Madam Su has been so good to you, making every household in your family profitable, and now you're spreading rumors that she's a monster? Check your conscience and see if it's still there! Have you been eaten by dogs?"
Wang Gui’s roar silenced everyone.
"Li Yin is right. Madam Su has treated us well. How can you call for her to be killed? The Zhu family is crazy, are you crazy too?!" Sister Li's hair was pulled into a mess. She had just had a big conflict with these people because of Su Liuer.
Su Liuer was kind to her. Not only did she let her pick the magic herbs at the beginning, but later when her son fell ill and couldn't afford medicine, it was Su Liuer who asked Wang Po to lend her money. In her opinion, Su Liuer was undoubtedly a kind person and could not be a monster!
The farmhand's wife spitted at Sister Li and said, "You treated that witch like an ancestor just because you took a few coins from her? You took her money, but I didn't take any! Besides, she sells a bowl of fairy grass honey for at least six coins now, and I haven't seen her raise the wages of the people picking fairy grass in the village! She even gives beggars five coins!"
"That's right! Li Yin, you wouldn't have made some private deal with her that's why you're protecting her so much?" Another person became suspicious of Wang Gui.
Wang Gui was furious. He pointed at the man and cursed him harshly, "You ungrateful little bastard! If I hadn't lent your parents money back then, you would have died long ago! Madam Su and I don't have any shady dealings. Don't forget, it was you all who came to me one by one to beg me for the job of picking the immortal herbs that I approached Madam Su to discuss!"
Wang Gui was so angry that his face turned red and he was panting like a cow.
Zhu Lin, the sickly woman, coughed twice, then stood up and said, "Wang Gui, you are the head of Shangyou Village, so you should be more considerate of us villagers. Now that there's a witch with witchcraft in our village, and you don't let us catch her, will you be held responsible if she kills one of us one day?"
