Chapter 113 Mysterious Man

Lin Yingxue smelled a slight danger from the middle-aged woman's words, but she was unable to protect herself now and was not interested in exploring what secrets were hidden in this strange village. All she wanted was to take care of her body and then leave here.

However, things didn't seem to be as she wished. On the fifth day of her stay at this farmer's home, another outsider entered the village, and the identity of this person seemed to be not simple.

"...I said a long time ago not to bring this inexplicable woman back. The adults will come over soon. If the adults find us taking in an alien woman, not only that woman will die, but our family may be implicated!"

From outside the house was the voice of a young man. Lin Yingxue had been recuperating in the room and could not go to the ground due to her foot injury, so she had never left the room so far. As for her daily meals and diets, the middle-aged woman brought in from outside. However, through the middle-aged woman, Mrs. Zhang, she learned that the couple had a son, and the one who had just started talking was Mrs. Zhang's son.

She had never seen the son of Mrs. Zhang, and even Mrs. Zhang, rarely saw Mrs. Zhang's husband, Brother Zhang. The most common person she saw in this room was Mrs. Zhang, and the family seemed to be very busy. They went out early and came back late every day. Even Mrs. Zhang usually stayed at home for most of the time.

Every time she saw Mrs. Zhang coming to take care of her with a look of fatigue, Lin Yingxue would involuntarily feel guilty. Sometimes she also wanted to ask Mrs. Zhang's family what she was doing every day, but she remembered that Mrs. Zhang told her not to ask too much, so she buried all these questions in her heart.

The thoughts in my mind passed by in a flash, and the voices outside sounded again: "...Your mother is kind, you don't know. Since you have brought them back now, don't think so much now! Adults should just come over to see you. Let's not let adults have outsiders in the house..."

The male voice that echoed this time should be Zhang's husband and elder brother.

"...Hmph, Xinci, have you forgotten your identity? Everyone in Rong Chao deserves to die..."

"Su'er, what are you talking nonsense, don't let the girls in the house hear it..."

Although the young man's words were blocked by Mrs. Zhang in time, Lin Yingxue could hear the words "Everyone in the Rong Dynasty deserves to die." Her expression suddenly changed. Her dynasty's name is Rong, and she is the people of this dynasty, so how could anyone say such things? Unless... these people are not the people of this dynasty.

As soon as this thought came out of her mind, Lin Yingxue was shocked and sweating broke out. And when this thought arose, it grew wildly like a weed, filling her mind in an instant.

If this guess is true, it can explain where the hostility of the villagers she felt before in a daze, and the strong murderous intent that the young man exuded to her in his words... If it weren't for the kind-hearted couple, I'm afraid she wouldn't have died at the entrance of the village, but also at the hands of the young man...

Various thoughts and emotions surged in Lin Yingxue's mind, but when she heard that the outside suddenly became quiet, she couldn't help but feel nervous - probably the adults in this family had arrived.

I wonder who is the adult in this family? Judging from the respect that comes from this family, this so-called "adult" must have an extraordinary identity!

Although she knew that if her speculation was true, the less she should know now, the better, driven by strong curiosity, Lin Yingxue carefully turned over and got out of bed, endured the severe pain, held her breath and limped to the door.

The voice outside was not loud. Lin Yingxue in front didn't hear it, but only heard a strange male voice behind him, "...Zhang Su, you acted well when you come in. After our affairs are done, I will consider recommending to the people above, transfer you out of the village, and use your talents outside..."

The strange man said a lot of words, but the general idea was to praise Mrs. Zhang's son's ability and promise some benefits, so that the family would be more willing to do things for him. Lin Yingxue is no longer surprised by such a common method of defensive action. If he meets a good master, the benefits of these words may come true, but if he meets someone wrong, these words will always be empty-handed and give people a slap in vain.

But Zhang Su was obviously very accustomed to this trick, and immediately replied excitedly: "Please rest assured, the younger one must do his best to help the master complete the plan!"

"Okay!" The strange middle-aged man seemed very happy to hear this, and said again: "Let's go, there is a rumor coming from above. Master may have actions in the near future. Take me to that place to take a look. There is no mistake at this critical moment!"

"Yes!" Zhang Su's respectful response came from outside. Lin Yingxue was listening to the strange man leaving and was about to return to bed, but at this time she heard the person outside the door say: "Why is the smell of medicine in this room so big? Who of you is injured?"

As soon as the words were finished, Lin Yingxue's heart tightened and she stopped moving. She was still like this in the room, let alone the Zhang family who was facing the strange man outside at this time.

It was quiet outside for a long time. Just as Lin Yingxue was looking around the house and thinking about finding a place to hide it quickly, Mrs. Zhang's slightly trembling voice rang outside: "Yes, the young woman is sick and is taking medicine recently. If she is smug, please forgive me..."

Perhaps because she was too nervous, even Lin Yingxue, who was in the house, could hear clearly the tremolo in Zhang's words, let alone the people outside! Such an abnormality is difficult to guarantee that people outside will not be suspicious. Lin Yingxue frowned. At this time, she was not too worried about her situation, but that her exposure would implicate the kind-hearted couple.

But the strange man outside seemed to trust the family very much. After a while, he left without saying anything.

Lin Yingxue couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she heard the footsteps gradually moving away from outside. The door was quickly pushed open. When Mrs. Zhang came in and saw Lin Yingxue standing in the room with the table, she couldn't help but be stunned, "Girl, you..."

Lin Yingxue glanced at Zhang's surprised sister-in-law, and didn't bother to explain, but hurriedly said, "Sister-in-law, help me find another place to hide!"

Although she hadn't seen the strange man with her own eyes, the people in the officialdom were somewhat scheming, not to mention that the village was not simple at first glance. If the strange man was really the leader behind the scenes, he would never have left so hasty!

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Zhang, who saw Lin Yingxue's anxious look, suddenly became nervous, "There is no place to hide nearby, but there is a cellar for pickled vegetables at home. Most people don't know about it, so they feel wronged that the girl will go in and stay for a while!"

Seeing Lin Yingxue nodding and not minding, Mrs. Zhang hurriedly said to the middle-aged man who was still outside: "Old Zhang, hurry up, go and open the cellar door!"

Just now, Lin Yingxue did not avoid the middle-aged man outside when talking to Mrs. Zhang. The middle-aged man glanced at Lin Yingxue with an inquiring gaze, and then hurriedly opened the cellar door as Mrs. Zhang told her.

Because of the inconvenience of legs and feet, the two of them took a lot of effort to temporarily send Lin Yingxue into the cellar. The cellar seemed to have been unscrupulous for a long time. The dark and humid air made Lin Yingxue cover her mouth and cough twice, and her originally bad face became even more ugly.

"Sister-in-law, don't forget to clean up the room!" Otherwise, the Zhang family would still suffer if someone saw that there were signs of outsiders living in the room.

After Lin Yingxue reminded her, Mrs. Zhang quickly went back to her room to clean up. As for the middle-aged man, she stopped and looked at Lin Yingxue with a meaningful look, then closed the cellar door and left quickly.

I hope there is no clue. When the last ray of light disappeared with the closing of the cellar door, Lin Yingxue thought in her heart.

As expected, Lin Yingxue didn't expect that after Mrs. Zhang had just finished cleaning up the traces she left, two men dressed in guards broke back.

"We adults lost things and asked us to come back and look for them!" After the guard said indifferently, he didn't wait for the Zhang couple to answer, so he pushed the door straight into the room and searched randomly, but naturally he couldn't find anything in the end.

"It should be thrown away somewhere else, let's go somewhere else to look for it." When he left, he just said this and left with a swagger.

It was not until they were sure that the two of them would not come back that the middle-aged couple breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

"The smell in the cellar is bad and the air is not circulating. Let's get Miss Lin out quickly." Mrs. Zhang said, and she was about to open the cellar door with an anxious look on her face, but the middle-aged man next to her grabbed her arm.

"I think that woman is a bit difficult..." The middle-aged man's face flashed with a hesitant look.

Mrs. Zhang knew her husband the most. When she saw her husband showing such a look, she couldn't help but feel shocked, "Old Zhang, what do you mean..."

"The cellar is not well ventilated, and the door can only open from outside..." That means that as long as they lock Lin Yingxue in the cellar for a few days, Lin Yingxue will undoubtedly die.

Mrs. Zhang looked at the murderous intent flashing in her husband's eyes and was so shocked that she took several steps back on the spot. "Old Zhang, that girl is good at being good at it. After she came, she had never inquired about the matter in the village. Now she is just showing a little smarter, and you want... that's a life!"

Mrs. Zhang looked a little excited, but there was no movement on her hands. It was obvious that as long as the middle-aged man was firm at this time, this kind-hearted and soft-hearted woman would most likely compromise with her husband.

However, the middle-aged man hesitated for a while, but still changed his mind. "I see that woman is calm and composed when it comes to things. She is not like an ordinary person. No one knows how Li Yan's human-faced and beastly thing will treat us in the end. Maybe the girl she saved can help our sons in the future..."

Listening to her husband's words, Mrs. Zhang seemed to have thought of something. The two walked towards the cellar with a heavy expression, and their emotions seemed to be even deeper than before.
