"Why?" Yao Zhuoyu was puzzled.

Jia Ying shook his head: "I don't know, but I stayed here all day and night. After the empress ran out of the yard last night, the village chief was so anxious that he mustered up the courage to chase her. Grandma Jian was waiting at home.

She was fine, but she followed a few mice inexplicably, and then the next day, she went out after making breakfast, and she didn't find her back until now."

mouse?

Yao Zhuoyu thought of Xu Anan asking him to find a mouse hole. Could this case be related to mice?

There was a bright green light in the dark night. Jia Ying took a closer look and saw that they were all mice, and they were only staring at their room. Jia Ying felt a little numb and quickly pulled Yao Zhuoyu into the room: "Sir, let's come in.

, the night in Jianjia Village is indeed dangerous."

Yao Zhuoyu was still thinking that even if a mouse sucked blood, such a small one would not be able to leave any fingerprints.

The remaining Jingzhao government officials all returned to Qingping County. Yao Zhuoyu was so tired that he fell asleep on the table. Jia Ying was holding a knife and leaning against the door to sleep.

Mu Yi was also very sleepy. He rubbed his eyes and said, "Brother Qing, when will this old man wake up?"

Mu Qing looked at him speechlessly: "I'm not a doctor, how do I know? Just stay on guard for now."

So they stayed until dawn, and everyone in the room fell into a sleepy state. It was not until he heard a weak cough that Mu Qing woke up from the armchair.

He went to knock on Xu Anan's door: "Miss, Village Chief Jian is awake."

Xu Anan opened the door calmly, rubbed his sleepy eyes and went to wash up outside the yard. Because everyone was not diligent in their limbs and could not distinguish between grains, no one boiled water.

Xu Anan washed his face with cold water and woke up instantly. Village Chief Jian leaned weakly on the bed and looked at everyone in the room. He said gratefully: "Thank you for saving us."

Yao Zhuoyu asked: "Why did you and your wife fall into that trap together?"

Village Chief Jian sighed: "I found that my old lady's behavior was a bit weird, and then I followed her quietly when she went out. I thought she wanted to go up the mountain to pick wild vegetables, but I didn't expect that she went directly into the mountains. I

I called her from behind, but it was as if she couldn't hear her. When she fell into the trap, she woke up. I pulled her, but she dragged me into the trap."

Is it control consciousness again?

The reason for the control in the north of the city is the use of incense, but where can a small and run-down village like Jianjia Village get the money to buy sachets? Even if there are sachets, hallucinogenic datura pollen must be used to induce hallucinations.

Seeing Xu Anan come in, Yao Zhuoyu asked: "Miss, what do you think is going on?"

Xu Anan did not answer his question, but asked: "Which of you can cook?"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and Jia Ying weakly raised his hand: "My subordinates know how to cook it, but it may not be very delicious."

Xu Anan touched his hungry stomach: "Go and do more. I didn't eat anything last night and I have to make up for it today."

With the food in hand, Xu Anan took the embroidery thread and went to find Village Chief Jian: "If you want to know what's going on, ask Village Chief Jian if he can come faster?"

"This red embroidery thread was drawn from Grandma Jian's body."

Village Chief Jian's face changed drastically when he saw Xiuxian, and finally turned gray, and his lips and beard were trembling.

Xu Anan smiled: "Village Chief Jian, why don't you tell me the story about embroidery thread?"

Village Chief Jian's lips moved, and he shook his head slightly: "Retribution, this is all retribution, no wonder, weird things happened in the village, no wonder the people in the whole village seemed to have changed. It turns out it's really

Yes, she is back...but...it has been ten years. How come she is still here after so long..."

Village Chief Jian's eyes were filled with defeat and disbelief, and Xu Anan narrowed his eyes slightly: "She is the owner of the embroidery thread in your mouth? And she is already dead, is that right?"

A tear overflowed from Village Chief Jian's eyes, and he wiped his cheek with his hands like bark folds: "Noble sir, this is the retribution of our Jian family village. Stop asking and leave here."

Yao Zhuoyu looked at him in disbelief: "You reported the case, what's the point of not investigating now?"

"It can't be investigated. I don't want to talk about this matter. After all, we are sorry for her. Even if she wants my life and my wife's life, I will not resist."

Village Chief Jian had already resigned himself to his fate, but his face was filled with grief, his eyes were closed, and his hair had turned even whiter.

"Miss, it's not good, let's leave Jianjia Village quickly."

Mu Qing suddenly rushed in, looking anxious.

Jia Ying, who was cooking, rushed out after hearing the news: "What's wrong? What's wrong?"

When he looked out the door, his face turned pale with fright: "Who can stand up to his grandma..."

Outside, all the villagers of Jianjia Village, men, women, old and young, picked up axes and hoes: "Get out of Jianjia Village! Get out! We don't need you to solve the case, get out."

The villagers' cries of defiance grew louder and louder.

Yao Zhuoyu held it in for a long time before spitting out a sentence: "These rogue people! There are dead people in the village. They were the ones who reported the crime, and now they are the ones who are not investigated for some reason! I don't know what to say."

The villager's voice continued: "It's because they came that the village chief almost died. Let them get out of Jianjia Village!"

"Yes, get out!"

"..."

Jia Ying wiped the water drops on his hands: "What should we do now?"

Village Chief Jian opened his chaotic eyes: "Noble man, let's go. They won't hurt you if you leave the village."

Xu Anan looked at him silently: "If we leave, it doesn't matter even if you and Grandma Jian die?"

Village Chief Jian burst into tears: "You have to pay back what you owe, it doesn't matter anymore."

Xu Anan took a cursory look at the door. The approximate population of Jianjia Village was about a hundred people. They all had pale faces and held axes in their hands. They looked at Xu Anan and others with hatred.

If they don't leave today, I'm afraid these people won't give up.

Yao Zhuoyu snorted coldly: "I am a dignified third-rank Jing Zhaoyin, but I am still afraid of these unruly people! Wait until I order the troops to suppress them!"

Xu Anan raised his hand: "No need, let's go."

Yao Zhuoyu looked at Village Chief Jian and his family: "But they..."

Xu Anan left two peace charms on the table and walked out. The villagers did not take action. They looked at Mu Qingmuyi who was holding the knife in fear, and then slowly made way for them.

Jia Ying put the prepared meal on the table: "Grandpa Jian, Grandma Jian, you can eat this meal, we are leaving first."

He rushed to catch up with Xu Anan and others. Looking at the sharp axe, his scalp felt numb.

He glanced back and saw a woman holding a crying child in her arms, watching them leave.

Xu Anan returned to Qingping County in a carriage and immediately found an inn to order food. She had been hungry all day.
