After Ruan Bai went out, he didn't let down his vigilance, but instead talked a lot to the two villagers.

She was very careful, and just curiously asked a few words about the little mermaid in the pond, and then mentioned the mermaid's mother. She didn't go deep into the conversation at all, and she got a lot of information smoothly.

First of all, the existence of mermaids did appear in their village a long time ago, and at that time everyone thought that the birth of a mermaid was a good omen, which would bring happiness and a good harvest to the village, so the statue of the mermaid grandmother was established for this reason. of.

It’s just that the times have changed, and most people nowadays no longer believe in gods and Buddhas, let alone treat those mermaids who can’t work and can only eat rice at home.

By chance, they discovered that such deformed people are very valuable. After a calculation, the villagers decided to sell the mermaid privately.

For a village like theirs, human trafficking is very common, and the villagers don't have much resistance, and even take it for granted.

"We work so hard to grow food for a year, and we can sell it for up to three thousand yuan, but a mermaid can sell for millions," the villager said. "In this society, where is money not needed? Getting married requires money, and raising children requires money." , The house needs money, the car needs money, if we don’t do this, we can’t even afford clothes.”

They thought that Ruan Bai had probably been sold by others, so they had no scruples at all when talking about it, very straightforward.

Ruan Bai: "..."

It seems that the setting of this game is quite down-to-earth...

"Now that you have money, have you ever thought about buying a house in the city and moving out from this remote place?" Ruan Bai asked, "In this way, children can also receive a better education and go to university instead of farming at home."

She couldn't agree with what the villagers said. In her opinion, they have been fascinated by this kind of huge profits. They only complain about the environment, but they don't think about how to improve their lives by themselves.

"It's easy to say, but it's actually not so easy," a villager shook his head, "We are illiterate, and our registered permanent residence is here, so what's the use of moving out, even if we marry someone from another village and have a child, If there is no protection from the mermaid aunt, why don't I still have to come back to save my life... "

At the end, he realized something, and quickly stopped talking.

Save your life

When Ruan Bai heard this, his fingers trembled slightly.

She thought that she had finally found something that made her always feel that something was wrong.

It is human instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Even if the external expenses are high, even if the external expenses are high, who would be willing to return to a poor and closed village after going to a city developed in the high-information age

It is not impossible to choose some remote villages and towns to settle down. Not only is it convenient, but the price is also cheap.

A mermaid can be sold for such an expensive price, and they can live well if they are a little poor.

But what if it's not that they don't want to leave, but they can't

Ruan Bai felt that she could already guess what he was trying to say.

All these stories finally formed a stable and clear concept in her mind—

If there is no accident, the number of women in this village has begun to decrease rapidly, and in the past few years, there may be no more mermaids born.

Five years ago, the dead mermaid girl was still able to make friends with Du Wenshu, and even developed feelings of admiration for him, which shows that the mermaid at that time, although it was a commodity, was not like the little mermaid she saw today. It is strictly guarded and no outsiders are allowed to approach.

There are only little boys in the village, and there are no little girls because of this reason, and the only remaining girls who can give birth to mermaids are naturally raped.

As for the "child born from marriage with someone from another village", it should be Wang Wenwen's identity in the game.

The whole story goes roughly like this:

The mermaid who was raised as a commodity from a young age met a young and elegant researcher by chance, and fell in love with the researcher while getting along with the researcher, and tried to escape with him.

This kind of behavior will definitely alarm the villagers, and eventually lead to the tragic death of the researcher, the corpse was disposed of in a hurry, and the mermaid committed suicide in anger.

From the perspective of a bystander, she can see more details than these villagers.

The mermaid aunt definitely has resentment towards these villagers, but she is very smart. On the surface, she seems to protect the villagers with those talismans, but indirectly seals them all in the village, so that even if they get a huge amount of money Money is no blessing to enjoy.

Any household registration and illiteracy are just excuses. Ruan Bai doesn't believe any outsiders, so they can deceive themselves.

As for why Wang Wenwen wanted to bring in people from other villages, she felt that it was probably because too many people in the village died, so she decided to let people from outside come over to replace them.

As a result, Ruan Bai couldn't help feeling a little scared.

Fortunately, when she faced the mermaid, she didn't take out the mermaid bell, but chose to use Du Wenshu to approach her.

Whether the effect of this mermaid bell is good or bad, she doesn't even know!

After getting the information he wanted, Ruan Bai didn't continue talking, and quickly led the topic to other places without leaving a trace.

In the end, after the villagers sent her out of the village, she hurriedly found an excuse, left here, and went to look for Gu San again.

She dared not go back to the village for fear of being discovered by the villagers, but she knew where Du Wenshu's tomb was.

She believed that Gu San would definitely come to the tomb to investigate, so Ruan Bai simply went there first to dig Du Wenshu's tomb.

For this researcher, Ruan Bai didn't have too many extra thoughts, maybe her views were too negative, she could see that the mermaid liked Du Wenshu, but she didn't think Du Wenshu had a good impression of the mermaid.

However, this has nothing to do with her, she just needs to bring the bones to the mermaid.

Du Wenshu's grave is a very simple low mound in the deep forest. I don't know who made it for him. There is only a wooden tombstone without his name engraved on it.

Ruan Bai rolled up his sleeves and dug straight away without saying a word, peeling off the soft soil above, and after about half an hour, he successfully dug out the human skeleton.

At the same time, she heard Gu San's cold, emotionless voice from beside her—

"Bai Ruanruan, I finally found you... Just now I was suddenly scolded by the people in the village as a scumbag/beast. I think I need an explanation for this matter?"

His tail dragged on for a long time, and his tone slightly raised at the end, sounding cold and arrogant.

Standing in the tomb, Ruan Bai, who was in a panic all over: "..."
