Chapter 889: No changing their minds
The more the villagers thought about it the more they realized that this bunch of people were nothing more than vicious beasts. Even those thieves who were chased out of the village would not go after the weak and poor, at most they will steal a few things from those who were better than the rest.
Even those thieves knew that they could not attack those who were poor and had a bit of humanity in their hearts left but what about this group of people? Are they not simply ruthless to the point where they can be called monsters?
Attacking those who did not have much in their own house was something only those could do who had no virtue left in their hearts. What was more it was said that even the devil will take pity on those who were carrying unborn children and the newborn. They were even worse than the devil!
Seeing that Yu Dong’s words seemed to have woken up the villagers of the Big River Village, one of the women could not help but shout in anger,” Yu Dong! You sure are ruthless! Do you not care about those mers who are in our village, do you wish for their parents to lose their sons?”
Now that she saw that the Big River Villagers were not willing to let them go, they could not hold on to their facade for long and one of the uninjured women started scolding Yu Dong as she blatantly threw threats in front of the women from the Big River Village.
” I am warning you all, don’t try to court death and be polite to us. If you were to push us in a corner then we will have no other choice but to deal with you just as severely.”
To think that they were daring enough to mention the magistrate in front of them.
” I think the one who wants to court death!” Aunt Wang snapped, she originally wanted to ask Yu Dong to let these people go after all they were pitiful as well but now that she saw how these people were acting arrogantly in front of her and Yu Dong, she could not help but snarl at the women in front of her. ” You think that we are scared of you? If you make a move against our mers then we will drag you all as well, right now we are only pulling those who were involved in those disgusting cannibalistic activities but if you dare to run your mouth, I think we will not let you go as well.”
Yu Dong looked at the villagers of the Big Stone Village who were panicking like ants on a hot pan and scoffed, ” Don’t bother, I said that I will go and file a complaint against you in the office of the magistrate today which means that I will surely do it. There is no need for you to worry about anything.”
The villagers of the Big Stone River panicked as they looked at Yu Dong who was leaving, ” I will…we will pay the compensation just don’t go to the magistrate. Let us go, there is no need for you to accelerate this matter.”
The reason the villagers of the Big Stone Villagers were so bold was that they thought that the other villagers will think twice before complaining against them after all so many mers from other villages had married into their village there was no way anyone will complain against them.
But in case this matter was reported would they not get executed right away? They might be bold enough to eat human flesh but they were not bold enough to face the consequences. What was more they were sure that once this matter was known to other villages which were far from their own village, no one would be daring enough to marry into their village.
What if no mer agrees to marry them? What will they do?
Yu Dong’s face turned ashen as she turned to look at them, she thought of how these people were aiming for her brother and children and sneered in a cold voice, ” Do you think that I will care about your compensation or anything else? The reason I stayed quiet was because your in-laws asked me to show you pity. Do you think that I care about your measly compensation?” nov𝑒𝔩𝗎𝔰𝓑\𝒸/o\𝐌
Her face turned gloomy when she remembered how many parents starved to death for the sake of their kids in the apocalypse world. She glared at the women who causing rioting and then continued speaking, ” But you don’t even care about your in-laws, you wished to kill them just now. Why should I care about you or anyone else as a matter of fact then? Your children are precious but other people don’t need to care about their children and just give up on them? You say that you are hungry to the point that you cannot help but eat your kids. Let me tell you something if I was in your shoes, I would have rather killed myself than eaten my kids! Your conscience is dead but doesn’t judge everyone else with the same gaze!”
The people from the Big Stone Village were struck between a cliff and a big river, they looked at Yu Dong with the same dumbfounded look on their faces but some of them were still unconvinced as a few women raised their voices and then said,
” You sure are speaking with a high moral ground just because you have food in your village, look at your healthy complexion and then look at us! Do we look like we are in any condition to think about such things?”
“That’s right, those kids were our own flesh and blood! Do you think that we would have eaten them if there was any other choice? Our hearts hurt as well but look at our condition, our stomach and back are sticking so close that we are starving to death! Only those who have a full stomach will they care about such big morals!”
