Views:

Li Qingling didn't know about these things. She and Liu Zhimo were busy making money, so she didn't even hear the gossip in the village.

One day, when she and Liu Zhimo came back from the stall, they saw many people surrounded by the gate of Liu's house, and there were bursts of crying and howling from the crowd.

what happened

Li Qingling and Liu Zhimo looked at each other, feeling anxious, and ran home.

After running to the door, Li Qingling heard Li Qingning's crying from inside the house, so she must have been frightened.

She frowned, and pulled an aunt standing on the farthest side, "Auntie, what's the matter? What happened?" Could it be Mrs. Liu who came here again to make fun of her

As soon as the aunt saw Li Qingling, she opened her mouth and shouted, "Little Ling is back."

Suddenly, the surrounding villagers all turned their heads to look at Li Qingling. Some had schadenfreude in their eyes, while others had pity in their eyes.

Being watched by so many people with different expressions, Li Qingling's face was calm. She glanced at the people around her lightly, and asked again, what happened

After she came here, she couldn't understand the hearts and minds of the villagers very well. Wherever there was excitement, she would join in there.

Coupled with the way they looked at her, it is estimated that this matter is a bit serious.

"You killed my child's father, you pay my child's father." At the same time as the wailing sounded, the villagers stepped aside, and a woman with disheveled hair and crying tears rushed over, reached out and grabbed Holding Li Qingling's shoulder, he shook it vigorously, "How can I live without the child's father?" How can she live with four children

Li Qingling froze for a moment, his head was dizzy after being shaken by the woman, and he came back to his senses.

Liu Zhimo stepped forward, pulled the woman's hand away forcefully, pushed her away, and dragged Li Qinglin behind him, his usually gentle face was as cold as ice at this moment.

"What do you mean by that?"

He remembered that the woman's surname was Wu and her husband's family name was Li. She was usually aggressive and could not suffer at all.

Sister-in-law Wu raised her swollen eyes and looked at Liu Zhimo with hatred in her eyes, "If it weren't for Li Qingling, a broom star, why would my child's father be eaten by Xiong Xiazi? It's all her fault..." It wasn't that Li Qingling said that there was food in Songshan, the child's father would not go to Songshan to find food, nor would he come back dead.

All of this is Li Qingling's fault...

Liu Zhimo glanced at Sister-in-law Wu coldly, then glanced around, the villagers, he asked loudly: "Who knows the specific things? Come out and talk about it." Looking at Sister-in-law Wu's condition, let her say , she couldn't explain clearly, "If you don't say anything, report it to the officials and let Master Qingtian review it. Anyway, we won't bear the crime of killing people."

If Li Qingling is to be charged with this crime, it depends on whether he is willing or not

The onlookers were silent for a while, and no one said a word.

Li Qingling came out from behind Liu Zhimo, looked around coldly, "Those who go to Songshan must have entered the deep forest, right? If they hadn't entered the deep forest, they would never have encountered Xiong Xiazi at all." Although she It hurts that someone can't come back, but she won't let people slander her casually, "I warned you again and again, don't go into the deep mountains, are you ignoring it?"

"You didn't go, how did you know you went into the deep mountains?" Sister-in-law Wu wiped her tears, stared at Li Qingling and cursed loudly.

"Shut up..." Li Qingling yelled at Sister-in-law Wu with cold eyes, probably startled by Li Qingling's eyes, and Sister-in-law Wu trembled for a while, but didn't react for a while.

Li Qingling took another deep breath, her expression became colder, and she glanced at the onlookers again. She pointed to a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy named Shitou, "Brother Shitou, you should know what happened." Can you tell everyone about it?" She remembered that the situation at Shitou's house was not very good, and in order to find food for the family, she followed the villagers to Songshan during this time.

Shitou looked up at Li Qingling, swallowed, and stood up with small steps, "Yes...he went into the deep mountain." His voice trembled a little, and he was terrified when he thought of that scene.

"Brother Shitou, don't be afraid, tell me slowly, from beginning to end, what's going on?" Li Qingling let out a little persuasive voice, comforting Shitou.

Shitou rubbed the corners of his clothes with both hands, and nodded again, "During this time, everyone went to Songshan to pick up food, and all the food around Songshan was picked up, so there is nothing to pick up." He said Then, he took a cautious look at Li Qingling again, met Li Qingling's eyes, and quickly lowered his head in fright, "This time... this time I'm going to Songshan, everyone... just go straight to the deeper forest and find... find There is more to eat in the deeper forests, so I decided to hunt there, but I didn't expect, I didn't expect... I would meet Xiong Xiazi..."

Speaking of this, Shi Shi trembled all over, thinking that he was frightened by that scene.

Liu Zhimo put his hands on Shishi's shoulders, and squeezed his shoulders vigorously, "Don't be afraid, you are safe now." He waited for Shishi to calm down, and then asked, "Which one of you met Xiong Xiazi first?" Is it Brother Li?"

Shitou nodded, his teeth were chattering, making a rattling sound, "I... I... I'm not very far from Brother Li, I heard... I heard his screams, and I wanted to run over to see what happened to him Something happened, but... But then, Xiong Xiazi also yelled..." He clasped his hands tightly, his body was shaking, even if Liu Zhimo pressed his shoulders, it didn't help, "I...I saw it from a distance Li...Brother Li was bitten by Xiong Xiazi...bitten, I'm afraid...turn around and run out with...following the others..." As soon as he finished speaking, he squatted down suddenly, and began to cry.

A half-year-old child was really terrified when he saw that scene for the first time.

Sister-in-law Wu immediately began to cry, "Dad, my son! You died so badly. Without you, what would we four of us do?" If a family loses its pillars, it is equivalent to the collapse of the whole world. down.

Li Qingling glanced at Sister-in-law Wu, then looked at the other sad and frightened people, and asked them if what Shi Shi said was true

Those people all nodded, and they all answered the situation at that time, that was indeed the case. When they saw Xiong Xiazi, they ran away desperately, even wanting the prey they hunted.

Life is almost gone, what is the prey

"You...why are you so cruel? Don't save yourself..." Sister-in-law Wu pointed to the people who went to Songshan together. If they save her, the child's father might still be alive, instead of not even seeing the bones arrive.

Those men were scolded by Mrs. Wu, their faces flushed, their mouths opened for a while, and seeing Mrs. Wu's behavior, they swallowed their words again.

Those men don't talk, but their wives don't.

"Sister-in-law, what you said is wrong. What do you mean by ignoring death? They met Xiong Xiazi, Xiong Xiazi is so powerful, you can't let us in charge risk our lives to save people, right? If we lose our lives, what do we do?" Live?" A woman who had not been married for a long time stared angrily and turned back, "Do you think so?"

"That's right, that's right..." The other women nodded one after another. Fortunately, they were the heads of the family and escaped back. If they really died, they really don't know how to live? Thinking about it, I'm terrified!

Sister-in-law Wu couldn't piss off so many people by herself, she covered her face and began to cry, and in a blink of an eye, she pointed the finger at the young Li Qingling again.

"It's you, you bastard, if you didn't say that Songshan ate you, my child's father wouldn't just disappear like this?"

It doesn't matter if the family is poor, as long as the whole family is safe and sound, but now, she doesn't even have this wish.

Li Qingling pulled Liu Zhimo who wanted to speak out. It would be better for her to speak out than Liu Zhimo, after all, it was her that others were targeting.

She raised her eyes and looked around at the crowd coldly. From their expressions, she knew that they also agreed with Sister Wu's statement in their hearts.

My heart is a little cold, this is the human heart! When good things happen, I don’t think of you, and when bad things happen, I blame you.

"Brother Li went to Songshan, did I force him to go? Huh?" Li Qingling's eyes seemed to freeze, and he shot directly at Sister-in-law Wu, "At your house, when you eat meat, when you earn money, why don't How about sharing half of it with me? Now that something goes wrong, blame me, is there such a reason?"

If they hadn't pointed and talked about her in private, would they have thought she would tell about the food in Songshan

As soon as she finished speaking, the others didn't dare to say anything, and all lowered their heads, not daring to look at her.

"When the village chief notified you of this matter, he has already told you clearly not to enter the deep mountains. I have also warned you again and again not to enter the deep mountains. You promised well at that time. In a blink of an eye, you put this on the back of your head..." Li Qingling snorted coldly, "Now that something happened, who is to blame? It's not because you are greedy..."

If they were not greedy, they would not have entered the mountains.

Besides, so many of them went into the deep mountains, and the bloody smell of their prey, even if it didn't attract blind bears, would attract tigers and wolves. Sooner or later, something would happen to them.

"Xiao Ling is right..." The village chief finally appeared after the incident. With his hands behind his back and his face frozen, he walked up to Li Qingling and stood beside Li Qingling. When you did this matter, did you say that you can decide whether to go to Songshan or not, and if you do, don’t go into the mountains?”

Li Qingling glanced at the village head, and scolded the old fox in her heart. She didn't show up earlier, and she didn't show up until she was almost done. It's really...

Everyone lowered their heads and remained silent. The village chief snorted heavily, "If you want to say that you are ungrateful, you are the ones. During this time, you have earned money and eaten meat, so why don't you say thank you, little spirit?" What? I was greedy, lost my life, and ran here to make trouble, is that plausible? Huh?" He also knew in his heart that the villagers did not dare to trouble him, so they could only trouble Li Qingling.

He felt ashamed of the child, hey, if he knew about it, he wouldn't have told about Songshan.
