The black-bellied peasant girl is reborn, and her weird relatives are mad

"Brother, can you decide?"

Xu Da nodded firmly.

Everyone was deflated, knowing that these four people could not be saved.

Jiang Muxia's eyes were slightly red, and she gritted her teeth and spat out four words, "Goddess of Tianji."

Everyone was silent. Who else could it be but her?

Tang Zhongbai was puzzled. They had cut off the source, so how could she do this to the villagers?

"Is it hopeless?"

Xu Da sighed and shook his head. There was nothing he could do.

"How long do they have to live?"

"Ten days."

"Ten days? Are so many people in Lu Village going to die in vain?" Her face changed slightly, and she turned to Tang Zhongbai beside her and reminded him, "Zhongbai, you have to find out the cause of the disease as soon as possible, otherwise, the area within dozens of miles will be ruined."

If the goddess of Tianji could attack the villagers of Lu Village, she would definitely not let go of the surrounding villages. This kind of evil person would take human lives seriously to achieve his goal, and Lu Village was just the beginning.

She had no time to feel sad because a large number of people died in Suanzao County. The prefect Tang Shiyan was the first to be held accountable, and then the entire Tang family was implicated.

The Tang family was accused of disregarding the lives of the people, and the entire family was finished.

"Okay. Please send her back. I'll make the arrangements."

Tang Zhongbai took Tang San away quickly. Lu Chaoyun had already dragged his mother and eldest brother's family to the county.

As a result, only Lu's second uncle and his family of four stayed in Lu Village.

It was neither right for her to stay nor right for her to stay.

After thinking for a long time, she finally made up her mind.

"Brother, Brother Yusheng, please go back. I can't just watch them die. Even if there is no hope of saving them, I have to stay with them until the very end. I can only leave after I have arranged their affairs." She turned around and called Fuzi, "Send them away and inform my family. Tell them that I will be staying here for a few days."

She took out a handkerchief, tied it around her face to protect her mouth and nose, went to the well in the yard, drew a bucket of water, carried the bucket into the house, and closed the door.

Outside the door, Xu Da and Yin Yusheng looked at each other in bewilderment. This girl always disregarded her own safety at critical moments and put herself in dire straits.

A breeze blew, and the hot air blew through the whole body, and the uncomfortable feeling made people irritable.

Xu Da wrapped himself in a cloth, took out a bag of silver needles and walked into the room.

It would be good if I could use my acupuncture skills to temporarily relieve their pain.

Fuzi did not leave, but stayed to help her and run errands for her.

When night fell, Tang Zhongbai came hurriedly. With a serious expression, he told her that he had found out how the villagers were poisoned.

Under the willow tree in the yard, in front of a stone table, Jiang Muxia was fanning herself with a palm-leaf fan while chatting with Tang Zhongbai.

"Three days ago, the goddess set up a porridge stall in the village, imitating the city. We visited all the villagers and found that all the villagers who had received porridge from her were killed."

"What?" Jiang Muxia stood up suddenly and said angrily, "How dare they? Hundreds of lives are at stake! Have they arrested her for questioning?"

Tang Zhongbai shook his head, "Without solid evidence, we can't arrest anyone."

"What about the villagers' testimony?"

"They swore solemnly that it was definitely not the goddess who did it, and they treated us as enemies. Even if we went to court, we would not be able to do anything to her."

Jiang Muxia slammed the table and said, "How can this be justified? Are we going to let her do whatever she wants?"

"No, and I won't. I sent someone to secretly search for the place where she hid the poisonous insect. Only by finding the poisonous insect can we capture her in one fell swoop and make her unable to turn back." Tang Zhongbai looked at the west wing and saw it was pitch black from the window. There was no movement at all. How could they stay there in such hot weather?

"How are my second uncle and the others?"

Jiang Muxia shook her head, a trace of sadness welling up in her eyes, "I've suppressed it for now. I've just been trying to get by these few days, and I can't help you with anything."

How would grandma feel when she knew that all four members of her family were gone, seeing the young die?

"There are still things to do in the county, so I'll leave this to Tang San. If you have any questions, go find him in the house opposite the Chaoguan." Tang Zhongbai was concerned about the disaster relief food and money, and was anxious to return to the county. Feng Nian would definitely plan to take these supplies.

Now he has no one on his hands. Although Weidong has arranged people to keep an eye on Feng Nian, they are not his confidants after all. He is really worried and has to guard the county government office all the time.

After he left, Fu Zi drew water from the well, filled the water jar beside the well, and jumped in.

"Sister Jiang, I'm about to be roasted. I'm going to sleep in the water tank tonight."

"No, I'm afraid I'll have to collect your body tomorrow morning. Soak for a while and get up quickly. You still have things to do this year."

Fuzi's eyes lit up and she responded happily.

After midnight, two black figures jumped out from the Lu family's courtyard and headed straight for the north of the village.

The two men sneaked into the temple and trotted away following the light.

Arriving at the backyard, he hid in a shadow and quietly watched everyone busying around in the yard.

The lights in Tianji Chaoguan were bright at this time. In the backyard, the maids were bare-chested and backless, carrying things on their shoulders. There were several large pots against the wall with their mouths open, and water was seething in the pots. The maids poured all the rice in the bags into the pots, stirred it with a spoon, and then covered it with a lid. After adding firewood to the stove, they went to find a place to cool off.

She fumbled among the maids and finally saw a familiar figure. She seemed to be the leader of this group of maids. She had a stern face and held a folding fan in her hand, fanning herself and pointing everywhere.

"Don't be lazy, all of you. This porridge will be sent to Yangdong Village tomorrow. If you burn the porridge, watch out for your skin."

The maids who were hiding in a corner scattered like birds and beasts, and ran to the stove to open the lid of the pot and stir it. The maids all obeyed her words, and seemed to be afraid.

A slightly younger maid walked up to her and flattered her, "Sister Tianqing, you should take a rest. Or you can give the food to me, and I will put it in when the porridge is ready."

The maid named Tianqing slapped her in the face and angrily said, "You blind dog, who do you think you are? How dare you order me around? You have no right to interfere in my affairs. Get out of here."

She seemed unsatisfied and kicked the maid.

The little maid fell to the ground, got up with a grunt, and knelt in front of her obediently with a trembling body.

The maids around dared not make a sound, turned their backs and lowered their heads to do the work in their hands.

Tianqing waved to the maid who was adding firewood to the stove in the middle. The maid hurriedly ran to her with her head lowered, bowed, and said respectfully: "Sister Tianqing, what can I do for you?"

Tian Qing said in an arrogant tone, with a shrill voice: "I will go to report to the goddess. I leave this to you. If I find out that you are lazy, she will be your fate."

As she spoke, she raised her foot and stepped on the little maid's hand, crushing it hard a few times. The little maid grimaced in pain but dared not cry out.

She kicked the man down, picked up the lantern, and walked towards the small door as if nothing had happened.

Jiang Muxia tugged at Fuzi's clothes and said in a low voice, "You stay here and watch. I'll follow her and find the goddess's residence."
