To sum it up, there was something wrong with all of them.
As cannon fodder, she definitely wouldn't have a good ending.
So …
Let's tie them all up!
I'm so smart.
The villagers were about to continue looking for people when Shi Sheng made his move. The villagers at the back were the first to suffer. Before they could react, they were knocked unconscious by Shi Sheng.
"Little girl, what are you doing!" Hearing the noise, the people in front turned around and saw Shi Sheng holding a sword. They all shouted.
Shi Sheng took out a few military smoke bombs from his space and threw them at the people over there. Smoke filled the air and covered the crowd in the blink of an eye.
However, Shi Sheng didn't hear the sound of people falling to the ground. The smoke surged and a figure rushed out, raising a hoe in his hand and smashing it at Shi Sheng.
"Clang — —"
The hoe was blocked by the Iron Sword. The man was very strong and Shi Sheng's hand was numb.
Being blocked, the man immediately retreated and continued to swing the hoe.
People came out of the smoke one after another. They were all holding various tools in their hands. Some were hoes, some were sickles, and some were shovels …
They used all the farming tools they could use.
These people didn't react to the smoke bombs!
Then they weren't human?
The smoke bombs didn't work, so Shi Sheng could only use his hands. The body of the original owner was too weak. She was almost paralyzed from exhaustion after dealing with these things that were most likely not human.
It wasn't easy to tie everyone up.
At this time, the smoke had dispersed. The people lying on the ground were actually the children.
Shi Sheng: "… …"
The development of this plot was a bit confusing.
[… …] The development of this plot is also a bit confusing. Normally, you would go through hardships and dangers and finally discover the truth.
But you, you just came up and killed all the important characters!
How can the plot continue?
If it was in a TV series, 30 episodes would be reduced to one episode. How can you stall for time?
This kind of screenwriter would lose his job at any time!! A screenwriter who doesn't stall for time isn't a good screenwriter!
Shi Sheng tied the people up and waited for the people who had just left to come back. After putting them all down, he swept the village to make sure there were no missing people before returning to the square.
The sky was turning white, and the village was very quiet. There were no sounds of roosters or other animals.
A large group of people were tied back to back in a circle. A few children were also tied to one side.
Who the hell knew which one was the real boss? Just in case, it was better to tie them all up.
Shi Sheng dragged a broken chair and walked slowly to the square. She sat down with her legs crossed.
"Who the hell are you?" The village chief asked in a hoarse voice. His thin face was slightly distorted.
"I'm just passing by." Shi Sheng pouted and blew out a breath.
I'm really just passing by.
"What do you want? There's nothing in our village. You can't get anything from us. "
"I don't want anything from you either." Even if she was so poor that she had to eat dirt, she wouldn't go so far as to rob a village that looked so poor, okay?
If he was going to do it, he had to do it big time.
"Then what do you want to do?!" The village chief was so angry that his voice cracked.
Shi Sheng leaned forward slightly. His gaze swept across the children and slowly landed on the villagers. "I just want to know, between you and them, who's the real ghost?"
"What ghost?" Some of the villagers were confused. "Why are there ghosts here?"
"We're all humans, not ghosts."
Every villager insisted that they were humans, not ghosts. The group of children had already woken up, but they didn't make a sound. Instead, they stared at the villagers as if this was the first time Shi Sheng had seen them.
The villagers refused to budge. Shi Sheng turned his gaze to the children.
"Do you have anything to say?"
"Are you a Taoist priest?" One of the older children asked her.
"No."
After hearing Shi Sheng's answer, the child immediately pulled a long face. "Then what's the point of telling you?"
"If you don't want to talk, then forget it. I'll just kill them all." Anyway, these people were all dead. She could at least get out, right? If she couldn't get out, then the entire village would explode.
The children: "…"
"They're ghosts." One of the children spoke up. His voice was no longer stiff. "They're all dead."
"Blockhead!" The child who spoke was reprimanded.
Blockhead wasn't the oldest, but he wasn't the youngest either. His eyes reddened. "I don't want to go on like this. Even death is better than this."
"Blockhead, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"Blockhead is right. I can't stand it either."
With a start, the children began to complain all at once.
They said that two years ago, there was a fire in the village. At that time, the whole village was on fire. The children had agreed to go to the mountains to play, and that was how they escaped.
When they returned, the people in the village were all dead, and only the few of them were left. But the next day, they found that the village was intact, and their relatives were still there.
The fire seemed to be a dream.
At first, they also believed that they were dreaming. But gradually, they found that there were many things wrong with their relatives.
For example, they didn't come out during the day when the sun was up. They only went out to work when the sun went down. When it was time to eat, they always let them eat first, but they never ate.
These strange phenomena weren't enough for them to find anything unusual. It wasn't until Da Zhuang's grandmother gave him a dead rat, but his grandmother said that it was braised pork.
The other children's families gradually had the same situation. If they didn't eat, they wouldn't force them. They just ate those things in front of them.
Only then did they realize that their relatives were already dead. They were burned to death by the fire. The people they were seeing now weren't their relatives at all.
This strange phenomenon frightened the children, and they made an agreement to run away from home.
But no matter where they ran, they would be found by the people in the village.
After running away a few times, they didn't run anymore. They acted obedient and sensible, trying to let their guards down.
A few months later, they found an opportunity. A stranger entered the village. It was a young couple.
The villagers were very enthusiastic about them. They didn't even care about them.
The children found an opportunity to escape, but they walked for a long time and couldn't find a way out. There were wild beasts in the mountains.
Tired and hungry, they could only choose to return to the village.
But the village was empty. They didn't see a single villager. They found the ancestral hall all the way.
All the villagers were gathered outside the ancestral hall.
They saw the couple from before being burned alive.
This incident left a deep impression on the children. Later, they didn't dare to run away. They could only pretend to live in the village.
They never dared to eat the food at home. They could only go out at night to find food.
It wasn't the first time that outsiders had come to the village. Half a year ago, there were people who came. They ended up like the couple and were burned to death.
