After the devil, she ran away again

Chapter 731 What Plague? (2)

Lu Ying was stunned and said: "Isn't burning the village because of the evil spirits causing some people to suffer from the plague?"

The old lady was very surprised when she heard this, and said, "Who told you that."

"All the villagers say that." Lu Ying was puzzled. One or two people might be talking nonsense, but the whole village said that, so could it be false?

The old lady smiled wryly, and said, "Did they say that? That's right, of course they won't tell the truth to outsiders."

Lu Ying was even more puzzled, and said: "Old man, I'm not an outsider... I'm Lu Ying, the son of the Lu family. Because I left for the capital when I was young, you may not have much impression of me, but this place has always been mine. home."

The old lady thought for a while, with a complicated look in her eyes, and asked, "Which Lu family? The Lu family in Hedong?"

"Yes, are there other Lu families in Murakami?"

"This... ah!" The old lady sighed a long time and said, "Son, you are late!"

Lu Ying was startled, waiting for the old lady's next words.

Pinellia next to her was also shocked, and had vaguely guessed something.

The old lady looked at Lu Ying hesitantly, as if she didn't know whether she should speak or not.After all, the child saved himself, and if he didn't tell him, others probably wouldn't tell him the truth.

What's more, he will be locked in the cellar, isn't he also killed by those people?

It turned out that the reason why the village was burned was not because of the plague, and those people lying on the side of the road were not poor people who died of the plague.

No one wanted to burn down the village, but just wanted to burn down the Lu family in the east of the river. Unexpectedly, when the fire started, the wind direction suddenly changed, and the straw roof of a granary next to the Lu family was blown onto other houses. The fire was like this spread.Half of the village could have survived if everyone had dedicated themselves to fighting the fire in the first place.

But in order to prevent the Lu family from escaping, the villagers put all their energy into chasing and beating them. Those who were burned to death actually lost the ability to escape before being burned.

By the time the Lu family had almost lost the ability to escape, and the villagers put their energy back on fighting the fire, it was already too late.

Lu Ying couldn't say anything for a while, he stared at the old lady, as if he didn't believe every word she said.

But when he thought of the slightly evasive eyes of the villagers and the vague reasons, he felt that maybe the old lady was telling the truth. His mind went blank, and the coolness penetrated from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, piercingly cold.When he came back, the ground in the village was still warm from the fire. It must have happened yesterday or the day before yesterday...

He really came back late, otherwise he would not have seen his family for the last time.

No, no, if he came back early, he might also be buried here.

He kept shaking his head and asked in disbelief, "Why? Why did they do this?"

The old lady said: "Isn't it because of the evil monster... The people of the Lu family want to move out of the village and seek protection from the sect of cultivation. In fact, everyone has this idea. Who doesn't want to survive? If they leave quietly, they can still live." Get out of the way... I probably wanted to do good deeds, and I went with everyone, so I went to lobby each family. If there are traitors in the village, the Lu family will be guilty of colluding with the immortal sect... If they don't die, the whole village will die."

After hearing this, Lu Ying only felt absurd, as well as grief and despair.

Ban Xia heard it, but it was another analysis.

Listening to the old lady's description... this village seems to have become the jurisdiction of the blood demon?
