In the latter half of the night, Mo Weiyi was sleeping soundly when she was suddenly awakened by the rapid sound of a gong.
Then, she heard someone shouting, "Catch it!"
She got up and was about to go out to see what was going on when several villagers rushed in.
"Trying to escape?" The villagers surrounded Mo Weiyi, full of righteous indignation.
Mo Weiyi looked at them, puzzled. "What happened?"
The leading villager questioned Mo Weiyi, "Tell me, are you working with it to steal our harvest?"
Mo Weiyi was even more puzzled. "What do you mean by working with it? What's going on? "
Just then, several other villagers twisted Mo Weiyi's arms and shouted impatiently, "Why are you still talking to her? Just take her to the village elder and let him deal with her!"
"Yes, take her away!"
Mo Weiyi knew that there must be a misunderstanding, so she cooperated and followed the villagers to the village home.
Along the way, the whole village was brightly lit, and countless torches lit up half of the sky.
There were many people gathered outside the village home. When they saw Mo Weiyi, they all looked at her with hatred and disdain, as if they wanted to tear her apart.
Mo Weiyi was very calm.
With her cultivation, it was easy for her to escape, and these people couldn't hurt her.
She didn't resist because she didn't want to deepen the misunderstanding, and she didn't want to become enemies with the village.
But the villagers didn't think so. The moment Mo Weiyi came, the evil came. Who would believe that they didn't collude!
"Beat her to death!"
No one knew who started it, but everyone followed suit and shouted, "Kill her! Beat her to death! Beat her to death! "
The village elder frowned, looking very worried.
He waved his hand to signal the villagers to be quiet, and then walked slowly to Mo Weiyi, asking, "How much can you eat? Do I have to steal the entire harvest of the village for a year? "
Mo Weiyi roughly understood that there was a habitual criminal who often stole the village's food, and the villagers thought that she was the habitual criminal's accomplice.
She denied, "You've misunderstood. I'm really not a thief."
The village elder did not comment on her words and continued, "Please pass on a message. In the future, our village is willing to give you some food every year, but you have to promise not to steal anymore."
Mo Weiyi explained, "It's really not what you think …"
Before she could finish, the villagers were already in an uproar.
"Village elder, we can't give them food!"
"That's right. We painstakingly planted them. Why can they reap the benefits without sowing?"
"Let's kill this demoness to vent our anger first, then we'll catch that demon!"
"Yes! Yes! "
The Village Elder shook his head, signaling for everyone to calm down. He looked at Mo Weiyi and said, "You've stolen everyone's food for the winter. If we can't survive this winter, what will you steal next year?"
Mo Weiyi was speechless. No matter how she explained, no one believed her.
She had no choice but to change her approach. "Alright, I'm willing to bring you a message, but I have to be able to find it first, right?"
It was the villagers' turn to be speechless.
If they could find the "demon", they wouldn't have to waste so much effort!
They could just catch it and beat it to death. Who would be willing to compromise with a heartless thief!
While they were in a stalemate, there was a sudden cry from outside.
"Husband, it's terrible!" A middle-aged village woman wailed as she pushed through the crowd of villagers, rushed to a Chinese character, and collapsed.
Everyone had already guessed what was going on, but when they heard the village woman say that her house had been turned upside down, they couldn't help but feel angry!
