Zhao Village was a small mountain village at the border of Hejian County.
The village was very small. A shout at the entrance of the village could be heard clearly at the end of the village.
There were only 25 families in the village. If something big happened to any family, the news would spread throughout the village within an hour.
In the past six months, the liveliest thing in the village was that Widow Zhao had picked up a wolf girl who didn't speak the human language.
According to the analysis of the villagers, the wolf girl had been taken away by a female wolf who had lost her child when she was young and raised as her own child.
Therefore, the wolf girl was very aggressive. She scratched whoever she caught. She didn't understand the human language, let alone speak it.
At first, the villagers were very worried that the wolf girl would bring disaster to the village. However, half a year had passed and nothing had happened.
Not only was everything fine, but the wolf girl's hunting skills were top-notch. She could go deep into the mountains to hunt every few days.
The hunters in the village only dared to wander around the periphery. The wolf girl dared to go deep into the mountains and hunt every time. Widow Zhao had lost her husband at a young age. It was difficult for a woman to live alone. Ever since she picked up the wolf girl, she ate meat for every meal. She could even use wild eggs to put on her face.
The wolf girl was a taciturn person. She ignored everyone and didn't talk to anyone. She looked at people as if they were dead. The villagers were afraid of her.
Widow Zhao, on the other hand, knew how to conduct herself. When the wolf girl returned from hunting, she would always give some good things to the families.
Today, the wolf girl hunted two big wild boars and came back. She didn't blush or pant along the way. She walked as if she was flying.
Without looking sideways, the wolf girl carried the two big wild boars into Widow Zhao's courtyard and closed the fence.
"Yao 'er, you're back. Wash your hands and face quickly. Come and try on your new clothes. "
When Widow Zhao heard the commotion outside, she knew who had returned.
"My name is not Yao 'er …"
The wolf girl crossed her arms and leaned against the door. She frowned and looked unhappy.
She didn't like the way Widow Zhao addressed her.
Compared to Widow Zhao's fluent pronunciation, the wolf girl's pronunciation was very strange. It was like a child learning to speak.
The wolf girl, or Jiang Pengji, had been in this strange, barbaric, and backward world for a whole year.
For the first half of the year, she basically lived in the mountains.
She knew that she had come to a completely strange barbaric era. What was worse was that she couldn't speak the language of these backward humans.
She was unable to communicate verbally, which meant that she couldn't quickly integrate into this society, let alone get the information she needed.
Knowing Widow Zhao and being 'picked up' by her was a complete accident.
Jiang Pengji inexplicably became the so-called "wolf girl." While she was envied and feared by the villagers, she was also envied.
Towards the filthy thoughts of these ancient humans, she only sneered coldly, feeling extremely disgusted with conversing with them.
Widow Zhao, on the other hand, mediated between the two so that she could continue living in the village.
Widow Zhao was an enthusiastic person. She pulled her to make a comparison of the new clothes.
"I see that you've been hunting in the mountains all day. You should at least change into a set of clean and light clothes. Don't be shy. Let me have a look."
Jiang Pengji secretly rolled her eyes. She took the green robes and went to her room.
"What about the pigs in the yard?"
"I'll go kill them later. If the villagers want to buy it, sell it at a cheaper price. If you can't sell it, make it into dried meat. "
Jiang Pengji's voice was low and hoarse. It didn't sound like a girl's voice, but she was a real girl.
Widow Zhao thought that such peaceful days would continue.
If she saved for another two years, she would be able to gather a dowry for her youngest child and find a matchmaker to arrange a good marriage for her youngest child.
Who knew that something unexpected would happen?
That day, Jiang Pengji went hunting in the mountains as usual. She had a bountiful harvest.
Just as she walked out of the forest, she saw an old man with a walking stick waiting outside. It was the village's Li Zheng.
She had always been gentle towards the elderly and young children.
"Li Zheng, are you looking for me?"
Looking at his posture, something big must have happened. Jiang Pengji frowned. She had an ominous premonition.
When Li Zheng saw her come out, he evaded her gaze. "Youngest … Youngest child, something happened to Widow Zhao. Quickly go back and take a look."
Jiang Pengji understood what he meant. She hurriedly put down the wild game in her hands and returned to Widow Zhao's house as fast as she could.
The fisherman who fished out the body said that Widow Zhao had fallen into the water and drowned. However, when Jiang Pengji looked at her body, she discovered that she had been strangled to death and thrown into the water. She had even been ravaged by at least three men before her death … Who was she trying to fool with such obvious marks?
Jiang Pengji's expression was so grave that it could drip water. However, the people around her said that she was an untamed wolf.
Widow Zhao had treated her so well. Now that she was dead, she didn't even cry. She was simply an ingrate.
Jiang Pengji understood what he meant, but she found it ridiculous.
Wasn't the best way to answer to the wrongly dead to prove her innocence?
Cry?
What was the use of crying?
Using the excuse of keeping watch at night, Jiang Pengji carefully examined Widow Zhao's body and found a few key clues.
She had endured it for a few days. After Widow Zhao's burial, she left Zhao village that night.
After half a month of careful investigation, she locked onto four suspects.
Given that the four of them had high social statuses and had attendants wherever they went, Jiang Pengji chose to assassinate them.
When she killed the fourth person, there was a small problem.
"Liu Lanting, you b * stard. You actually … killed your illegitimate brother with your own hands?"
Liu She pointed at Jiang Pengji with a trembling finger. He was half sober.
His eye bags were dark, and his footsteps were weak. It was obvious that he had been drained by alcohol and women.
Jiang Pengji didn't like to kill innocent people. She came and went without a trace, so she wasn't afraid that Liu She would see her face.
"What Liu Lanting?" She asked in a hoarse voice with a cold face. "What illegitimate brother?"
Liu She looked at her in disbelief. Then, he looked at the lifeless body on the ground. While he was devastated, he was also furious.
"B * stard, if I don't kill you today, I won't be able to avenge my son!"
When Liu She was young, he was a famous playboy in Hejian. He was addicted to alcohol and women all day long. He had many wives and concubines in his backyard. He kidnapped countless women and killed even more. Perhaps it was retribution, after they got married, they only had two sons of concubines and a daughter of the first wife. One son of the concubine died young, and the other son of the second wife, who survived with great difficulty, became a golden lump. He and his concubine spoiled him to the point of lawlessness, and often did evil things to the common women. Both father and son were not good people, and they had many debts of human lives.
As for the illegitimate daughter, she fell into the bandits' lair a year ago. It was said that she was no longer innocent. He felt ashamed, so he simply declared that she was dead and didn't send anyone to look for her.
Unexpectedly, she came back a year later and took her illegitimate brother's life.
Jiang Pengji frowned.
She had a good memory. On the first day she came to this world, she saved a group of girls who were being bullied by bandits. When those girls called her, they did pronounce her name "Lanting." Could it be the name of the original owner of this body?
"I don't know who Lanting is. I only know that the b * stard lying on the ground and the other three b * stards killed the most important person to me in this world. He committed a crime. According to the federal law, rape and murder are capital crimes. "
Jiang Pengji jumped onto the eaves and used her right hand to grab a stone from the cloth bag around her waist. She hit Liu She and knocked him out.
After that, she reentered the forest and lived a carefree life like a savage.
If there were no accidents, it would have been a good life. Unfortunately, her "neighbors" were the bandits who came looking for trouble.
Jiang Pengji single-handedly challenged the entire bandit village. Although she didn't kill anyone, every bandit was injured. The lightest injury was a fracture.
After witnessing Jiang Pengji's ruthlessness, all the bandits were afraid of her.
"Who owns this mountain?"
"It's yours, my queen!"
"Who has the final say on this mountain?"
"My queen, you have the final say!"
"Very well. From now on, this is my territory. Who should you listen to?"
"We'll listen to you, my queen!"
