Don't even think about who saved it when it was about to live or die.
With a calm face, he threatened in a low voice: "If you bite me again, I will throw you to the barren mountains to fend for yourself."
The puppy glanced at Ye Xingtong provocatively and continued to rest with his eyes closed.
The mother-in-law sat next to Ye Xingtong and then sighed and told Ye Xingtong the reason: "Not long ago, our town suddenly discovered a very strange thing, that is, young men and women would suddenly become ill overnight. He would die within a short time of foaming at the mouth, which made the whole town panic! Now, as long as they are young men and women, they are almost extinct."
"Our village is the most remote place in the town, and nearly half of the young men and women have suffered the same fate. Our town is on the border of Southern Xinjiang and Li State. Southern Xinjiang and Li State have good relations. There are also many ordinary people. People come and go, but since that strange thing happened not long ago, almost no one dares to pass by."
Ye Xingtong frowned tightly and asked, "How long has this happened?"
Now is an extraordinary period. Southern Xinjiang and Li State have friendly exchanges and trade with each other. If this road is cut off, then the relationship between the two countries will be in danger.
The old woman couldn't help but shed tears as she talked: "It's been a month or two, and my son, who was still unmarried when he was thirty years old, also unfortunately passed away."
Ye Xingtong took a deep breath and patted the old woman's back comfortingly: "..."
Wanting to comfort my mother-in-law, I opened my mouth but didn't know what to say.
"My wife and I had children all the time. We were supposed to enjoy a happy life in the future, but who knew it would suddenly be gone like this? Wow... "
The old woman wiped her tears sadly.
Her miserable son hadn't even had time to marry a wife, and he couldn't even leave any roots behind.
Just went like that.
She and her husband were left alone to grow old.
Ye Xingtong clenched her fists and tried her best to calm down her mood.
It's so abominable that such a bastard thing could happen.
Since she passed by here and ignored it, she would be very sorry for the people who were killed.
"Does mother-in-law know how many people were killed?"
"The whole town doesn't know. We don't have many people here, but about a dozen young men and women were killed."
The mother-in-law's old face was full of tears, and she forced a smile in embarrassment: "I was too sad for the moment, and the girl laughed."
Ye Xingtong nodded heavily: "I understand my mother-in-law's feelings. I will seek justice for my mother-in-law's son and other people who were killed."
The old lady was stunned, looked at Ye Xingtong in surprise, and stammered: "Aunt... the girl is..."
"I am Ye Xingtong, the princess of Southern Xinjiang Kingdom. Don't worry, mother-in-law..."
The old woman knelt down on the ground with a "plop" in tears, and kept kowtowing: "The common people don't know that it is the princess who has arrived, please princess, you must avenge my son! The poor son of the common people..."
Ye Xingtong put the puppy on the ground and took a step forward to help the old woman sit on the stool: "Don't worry, mother-in-law, since I have encountered someone, I must take care of it and find the real culprit."
The puppy was abandoned aside, his eyes wandering slightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
The old woman then told Ye Xingtong in detail what happened to her son that day.
That day…
…
After she got up and cooked dinner, she went to call her wife and son.
"Old man, son... it's time to get up!"
"Hey, get up."
The old man responded casually and got up.
Seeing that her son hadn't gotten up after calling for a long time, the old woman couldn't help but ask the old man: "Old man, why did our son get up so late today? Did you buy him another drink?"
The old man shook his head and said firmly: "Absolutely not. Go and see why?"
Thinking of the murders that happened a few days ago, two or three young men and women were found dead frothing at the mouth in the morning.
Will his son be okay
Thinking of this, the old man was a little frightened.
He hurriedly pulled the old woman and said anxiously: "Let's go and have a look. Do you still remember the three murders that happened a few days ago? Our son will not... "
"No, our son is very lucky, so he definitely won't..."
The old woman was startled and quickened her pace to enter the house.
Once inside the room, the two of them stood there stunned.
After a long while, the old woman reached out her trembling hand to touch her son's pale face: "Son... son... what's wrong with you?"
His face was as pale as paper and his eyes were wide open, as if he had encountered something frightening and could not close his eyes.
The old man was also a little distracted. His body trembled and he could hardly stand. The child they had in their old age was just gone.
"Son... son!"
…
After the old woman finished telling the story, her face was full of tears and she kept sobbing: "Princess, I have made you laugh."
After Ye Xingtong heard this, her brows furrowed even more: "Don't be too sad, mother-in-law, you two should take care of your health!"
The old woman wiped her tears and took a breath: "Thank you for your concern, princess, we will do it."
"Honey, I'm back!"
At this time, an old voice came: "Honey, look what I caught today. We are in a good mood today..."
An old man with a slightly stooped body, a wrinkled face, and almost completely white hair staggered into the house, carrying a dying rabbit.
When he saw someone else in the room, he was slightly startled and looked at his wife with red and swollen eyes in confusion: "Honey, are you crying again? This girl is..."
The old woman happily explained to her husband: "This is the little princess Ye Xingtong from southern Xinjiang. She came here specifically to help our village. She said she would uphold justice for us."
Ye Xingtong nodded slightly to the old man: "Hello, old man, my name is Ye Xingtong."
The hare in the old man's hand fell to the ground with a "plop", and he looked at Ye Xingtong with a pair of eyes in disbelief: "Are you the princess of Southern Xinjiang who made a fuss about escaping from marriage a few days ago?"
The old woman's face changed and she quickly corrected her husband: "What are you talking about? This is a noble princess and she is here to help us. Don't talk nonsense."
As long as they, ordinary people, can have food and clothing, they have nothing to do with the palace.
The old man reacted and immediately wanted to kneel down and salute. Ye Xingtong supported him in time: "I don't need to be polite. In fact, what I said is right. I am a princess who escaped from marriage. Although I live abroad, I will do my best. I am here to help you."
The old man held Ye Xingtong's hand with some excitement: "Thank you princess, my poor son should be a child now."
