Chapter 561: Who are you shouting at
Yu Dong rushed in the direction from where the smell of rotting corpse was coming from and as she got closer to the spot, she was stunned to realise that the scent of the rotting corpse got even more and more strong and at a certain point it became so strong that a sudden ominous thought came to Yu Dong’s head.
What if…?
She didn’t know if what she was thinking was right or not but as she slowly walked towards the direction from where the smell was coming, her most ominous thought turned around and became a reality.
Because of the rain, a part of the cliff seemed to have broken down like a landslide but that wasn’t the shocking part. The most shocking thing was the number of corpses that were sticking out of the rubble of mud and rocks, Yu Dong’s eyes widened as she looked at the several corpses, and her gaze skimmed over them as she counted.
” One, two …eleven…twenty? Twenty!” Yu Dong finished counting and her eyes widened in surprise. At least twenty mers were killed off from the village and no one knew about it? This was simply impossible!
Behind her Li Li came running as well, she looked at the number of corpses as well and then tilted her head. ” The witch was her.”
” The what?” Yu Dong turned around and looked at Li Li who was staring at the corpses blankly. ” You..you have seen the woman who came to the mountain dragging these corpses?”
Li Li gave her a nod. ” She comes here every now and then with mers but she leaves alone, I always wondered what she did with them but looks like she ate them all.”
” Wh..why did you not tell anyone?” Yu Dong really couldn’t understand why Li Li kept this to herself, she knew that someone was killing these mers and yet she silently let them do it. Was she really serious?
” Because no one would have believed me,” Li Li answered simply, she knew that she was different from others and the villagers treated her like she was some crazy freak. One time she did tell them that someone was harming the mers but no one believed her and they even scolded her, so from then on she started to keep her mouth close.
Even if she was to cry that a wolf was coming no one would believe her and only when they see the wolf coming with their own eyes would they believe in her.
Yu Dong didn’t say anything after she heard Li Li’s answer, she was right. Back then if Li Li had told her the same thing without any evidence she too would not have believed it.
” We have to call the village head,” Yu Dong nursed her temples as she turned to look at the pile of dead bodies buried in the landslide. The bodies were ranging from old to new, and some were completely decomposed she didn’t even have to think about how long that stalker has been living in this village harming other mers without anyone knowing.
” You wait here,” she told Li Li, given how no one believed in Li Li, if Yu Dong was to send her to call the village head, it might take a long time, it would be better for her to go first and bring Village head Gu instead. ” If someone tries to attack you do not get hurt, be on your guard and don’t…” she flailed her hand as she added, ” Do not doze off you hear me?”
Li Li nodded. ” I will not doze off, I will stay on my guard.”
However, Yu Dong was still worried about Li Li so she instilled her spiritual energy in the tree next to her. In case Li Li were to lose focus, the tree would smack her awake.
Only then did she turn around and leave heading towards the cave where the rest of the village and the village head were but no sooner did she take three steps than she heard a loud smack and three black lines appeared on her forehead.
” Seriously? I didn’t even leave her for three seconds,” at first Yu Dong was guilty that she was taking the matter too far but now that she saw how quickly Li Li lost her focus she gave herself a pat on the back, looks like her decision wasn’t wrong at all.
Yu Dong rushed to the cave when she heard the voice of Old man Tang as he shouted at her husbands, ” You two bastards! Where were you? Can’t you see that I am starving? Even if you are no longer under me, I am still your father-in-law and you are my sons in law, why didn’t you bring the porridge before? You fcking mer wh*res hurry up and serve me the porridge.”
Yu Dong’s face immediately darkened, Shen Li and Ye Liu were husbands and she as their wife didn’t even raise her voice at them what right was Old man Tang screaming at her husbands like this?
Before Shen Li and Ye Liu could say anything Yu Dong has already picked up a stone and threw it at Old man Tang. The stone knocked against Old man Tang’s back and he immediately turned around to curse the one who threw the stone at him but when he saw that it was Yu Dong, he immediately swallowed back his curses.
” Don’t you have hands? Why should my husbands serve you? They are not your grandsons in law, your son-in-law is standing behind you. Ask him to serve you and if he isn’t willing then you can ask someone to get you a grandson-in-law, but wait you kicked out your granddaughter from the family after usurping everything from your ex-wife, there is no way you will have a grandson in law now. If you hate my husbands and me so much, why are you eating the rice brought from my home? Step aside!”
