Chapter 1584: Full Year's Drink
Seeing the man in such a state, the women finally breathed a sigh of relief and smiled with satisfaction, "Okay, the third child of the Wu family has been cured of his epilepsy!"
At this time, the crowd was separated, and a woman with a big body and a round waist rushed in. The woman's face was full of flesh, and she looked very untouchable. , approached the man who was pulled up without saying a word, and slapped him twice loudly, "You thief, if you dare to run after entering my Wu family's door, I will beat you to death!"
Female Kong Wu He was so forceful that he rolled up his sleeves and slapped the man twice. His nose started to bleed, and he almost fell to the ground again. Finally, he gave up after being persuaded by an elderly woman at the scene.
The old woman was holding a cane in one hand, and there was someone supporting her on the other side, "Don't hit him. Beating him to death is a small matter, but you can't damage the inheritance of my Blackwater Village, otherwise if the empress knows about it... ”
At the mention of Empress Zhusheng, the chaotic scene instantly became quiet. Even the most angry strong woman's expression changed and she retracted the hand she had just raised.
Pausing her cane hard, the old woman stared at the strong woman who was beating her, her withered face twitched, and she said slowly in a tone between threat and warning: "Head of the Wu family, remember, this This is the last time. The year before last, your eldest son became insane and wanted to run away from the village. As a result, he fell into the Blackwater River and drowned. Last year, he was the second child in your family. Fortunately, the villagers found out in time, broke his legs and sent them back to you. This time it is the turn of the third child in your family..."
Old woman's His tone became worse and worse, and his face slowly darkened, "Do you have the ability to control the men in your family? If not, Just let the man out, and other women in the village will discipline you."
"Also, this is not what I mean, this is what the village chief meant." The old woman sneered, "You. I know, what the village chief means...is what Empress Zhusheng means."
Wen Yan Ti. The strong woman was so frightened that she was shaking like chaff. Her knees weakened and she knelt on the ground with a plop. She kept kowtowing to the old woman, "Elder Sun, I know I was wrong. I promise I will never do it again next time. Please Please...please speak kindly to me in front of the village chief. I, Wu Damei, am very grateful!”
The scene in front of her made Li Bai couldn't help but frown. The words "Empress Zhu Sheng" were like a huge mountain that overwhelmed the whole village. At the same time, this was also the first time she learned the name of the strong woman in front of her: Wu Damei.
According to the conversation between the two, it can be known that things like men running away are not uncommon in the village, and women in Blackwater Village are just like men in the feudal era, having three wives and four concubines is common.
More importantly, the mysterious village chief of Blackwater Village seems to have some unexplained relationship with the empress Zhusheng, who is deeply feared by the villagers.
"I have said everything that needs to be said. As for what to do next, you can do it yourself." The old woman raised her heavy eyelids, and after saying the last sentence, she looked at the people around her. With help, he turned and left.
"Elder Sun is gone. Don't be stunned. Quickly, change the clothes of the third child of the Wu family. How will you behave on this big day?"
I don't know who shouted something, and the crowd that had been stagnant became active again. Everyone began to stretch out their hands to take off the man's clothes. At the same time, someone used a large bamboo dustpan to bring the man's new clothes and shoes.
However, these new clothes seemed to be very mysterious. They were wrapped tightly in black cloth, and there were people blocking them around. Li Bai couldn't see what was inside.
But the next second, what he saw in his peripheral vision refreshed Li Bai's understanding again. Several women held down the man's legs, and then tore off the embroidered shoes on the man's feet. The man's feet were bloody. , has been severely deformed, and it looks like the bones were crushed and then forced into it.
It is unimaginable what kind of pain the man endured to be able to run so fast on such small feet.
However, in stark contrast to Li Bai's disgusted expression, was the dull smile on the man's face.
The man who had been stuffed with white powder once again returned to the standard appearance of a village man, well-behaved, obedient, silly, and, of course, indescribably weird.
A surprising thought came to Li Bai's mind. I'm afraid all the men in the village were captured. In order to control these men more easily, the women in the village fed the men this weird food. White powder.
The man who was stripped of all his clothes was taken away like an animal. The women surrounding him looked beaming with joy. The women were whispering to each other in celebration, but the words they said made Li Bai's hair stand on end. .
“The third child of the Wu family is about to live his life. I’m so envious.”
“Isn’t it? It’s not like the two short-lived ghosts in my family. If I had known better, I wouldn’t have picked them out in the first place. .”
"You can't say that. Men with broad shoulders and big butts are easy to have children, but it's best to break their legs, or at least pick their tendons and hamstrings, so that they can be obedient."
Before Elder Sun, who was so frightened that her face turned pale, gradually regained her confidence amidst congratulations one after another, and returned the congratulations with her hands in hand, "Thank you all for your support, I am Wu Damei I’m so grateful. I’ll treat you to a birthday party in two days. Remember to come, everyone!”
Li Bai suddenly realized something more serious. They had only one day and one night in this Blackwater Village! During this time, they met many villagers, including old people, middle-aged people, and young people in their early 20s, but they never saw children.
None.
Where did the children born before in the village go?
After the crowd dispersed, the calmness once again returned to the large courtyard. After closing the door tightly and confirming that no one was eavesdropping, Yao, Shunyu, and Li Bai's expression became extremely ugly. Li Bai quickly informed Yao, Shunyu, and Yao of the abnormality he had discovered. The reporter was also secretly frightened.
This Blackwater Village is just like the Blackwater River surrounding the village. It is terrifying and dark. No one knows what is hidden under the Blackwater and in the deepest mud. There are so many ulterior secrets. (End of this chapter)
