The next day, Fei Yuzhen changed his clothes, carrying a fish basket on his back. With his realistic acting skills, he integrated into the villagers in less than half a day. His identity was simple, a fishmonger in the town.
No one in Yulin Village doubted him, after all, the villagers made a living by fishing.
He strolled around the village when he had nothing to do, under the pretext of looking for a good source of goods, but in fact he was looking for Yiyong's knife and asking for information.
Hard work pays off, and he really found a little kid running around with a scabbard. Following the little kid, he came to a house.
It was a wooden house located in the center of the village, but the specifications were much larger than other houses. It was probably the village chief's house.
There was an old man basking in the sun in the yard, and Fei Yuzhen started to talk to him with a smile.
"Old man, I'm a fish from outside..."
Before he finished speaking, the old man glanced at him and uttered a word lightly.
"Get lost!"
After failing to strike up a conversation, Fei Yuzhen silently took out a wad of money from his pocket. In the Demon Slayer Corps, there is nothing else to say, that is, there is sufficient funds.
He deliberately shook the wad of money in his hand and said regretfully: "Alas, it's a pity that my money is gone, I can't spend it!"
"I also heard that the fish catch in this village is very good!"
The old man took another look and almost fell off the recliner in excitement.
In the blink of an eye, the courtyard door opened wide, and the old man said with a warm and flattering expression:
"Dear guest, please come in, the fish catch in our village...I'm not bragging..."
The power of money is always so beyond imagination.
The old man poured Fei Yuzhen a good tea and complimented him, and the wrinkles on his face were all smiling.
"I think the young man is very brave and extraordinary, so he must not be the son of an ordinary family, right?"
Fei Yuzhen nodded. Since the old man likes to imagine, let him imagine it. He stuffed the money into the old man's pocket, waved his hand generously, and said:
"Village chief, take it, just consider it as making a friend!"
"We can discuss business in the future!" The village chief's eyes lit up and he smiled after receiving the money.
Fei Yuzhen struck while the iron was hot and asked, "Oh! My father likes to collect some swords and the like. I just saw a kid holding a scabbard..."
As he said that, he took out another stack of money. He didn't need to finish his words. The village chief understood immediately. Anyway, the knife was obtained from the kid who smashed the shrine. He didn't expect it to be able to sell for money.
Soon, the village chief came out with a knife in his arms. He handed it to Fei Yuzhen and said, "I wonder if the young man is talking about this one?"
"Yeah!" Fei Yuzhen pushed the money over and put away Yiyong's knife.
"By the way, I want to ask you about someone, Anxia Tiaozi."
"I was given a meal by a friend, and I want to return the favor."
Hearing this, the village chief's frown relaxed, and he told some stories about Tiaozi.
"Originally, Anxia's family was quite happy, but unfortunately her parents disappeared mysteriously five years ago. The child was still young, and everyone felt sorry for her, so they usually took care of her. She grew up eating at many people's homes."
As he spoke, the village chief sighed, and Fei Yuzhen felt that he didn't want to act out that kind of pity. Hearing what the village chief said, the villagers treated her well.
Then why was there a sacrifice?
The girl was still hiding something.
Fei Yuzhen didn't think about it any further. Anyway, the girl was not a bad person. He bragged with the village chief for a while, and the village chief was stunned.
In the evening, he "left" Yulin Village, changed back into his team uniform, and waited for the "fishing" plan to begin.
In the early morning, Anxia Tsunzi set out for the ruined temple. She had secretly taken a look during the day and found Yiyong was still locked inside.
Now she realized that with such a thick iron chain, how could they open it without a key?
She shouldn't have run away in a hurry yesterday.
Watching Anxia Tsunzi enter the ruined temple, Fei Yuzhen went to the village chief's house to report the news. Of course, he did not show up.
In this way, the villagers caught Anxia Tsunzi releasing people. In order to avoid more trouble, they had to send sacrifices in advance.
In the ruined temple, Anxia Tsunzi opened the lock of the iron chain. Just as she was about to untie the rope, the temple door opened.
A dozen young men holding torches followed the village chief in. They were all strong laborers in the village.
"Tsunzi, what are you doing? It's ridiculous!" The village chief shouted angrily. He waved his hand and signaled the people behind him to pull Tsunzi away.
Seeing that the matter was exposed, she protected Yiyong behind her like an old hen protecting her chicks.
"No, we must let him go today."
No one noticed that she had a short knife in her hand. Before everyone could react, she had already put the knife on her neck and threatened:
"Let him go and let me be the sacrifice!"
"The sacrifice should have been me!"
In fact, Anxia Tsinzi knew everything. The village chief relied on his prestige to ask the villagers to kidnap outsiders for her.
"If the outsider dies, he dies. How can I face your parents if you die?"
"Be obedient and put the knife down!" Anxia Tsinzi was afraid that the village chief would be so angry.The village chief's tone immediately softened.
Five years ago, a monster appeared in Yulin Village. It crushed many villagers with overwhelming force, and finally asked the villagers to send a child as a sacrifice five years later.
Everyone in Yulin Village knew that monsters were not something that could be fought by human power, and they had to send a sacrifice according to its wishes.
The monster asked for a child, but the village chief knew very well that no parents would agree to their children to die, so they could only send a child without parents.
But Anxia Tsunzi was the only orphan in the entire Yulin Village.
So, when the village chief could not stand the pressure, Yiyong appeared, and an outsider was enough to resolve the conflict.
The villagers hit it off immediately, after all, the one sent out was an outsider.
Things have developed to this point, it is really difficult to deal with, but it is actually easy to deal with, just kill the ghost.
But who can believe that the sacrifice they are about to send is specifically for hunting monsters?
"I'll go, right now!"
"It's a bother!"
Yiyong's two short sentences silenced the tense atmosphere.
Everyone at the venue looked at Yiyong in disbelief. After all, to them, Yiyong meant "Let me go and die."
Especially, he said "It's a bother" very politely.
Just then, Yiyong remembered that he forgot to tell Anxia Tsutsuko about the plan. For now, it didn't matter.
"That's going to die, you idiot!" Anxia Tsutsuko glared at Yiyong and said angrily.
"I can't die!" Yiyong retorted, his tone unquestionable.
"Well, I'll go with you!" Tsutako put down her knife and bowed deeply to the village chief. "Grandpa village chief, I'm sorry, let me go."
"If I live, it proves that what he said is true. If I die, this is my fate."
"Nonsense!"
"He is about the same age as you, how could he beat that monster!"
Who knew that as soon as the village chief finished speaking, a light blue figure passed by his eyes, and then a scream sounded behind him.
The village chief turned around mechanically, and the dozen young men who came with him fell to the ground one after another. Yiyong still had a paralyzed face, and his deep blue eyes were like a bottomless sea.
He asked in a steady tone:
"Old man, what about now, do you believe me?"
What is happening now is also what Feiyuzhen imagined. He only told Yiyong a way to break the situation -
Let others realize your strength.
It turns out that this works very well.
