Li Qingling did not know about any of this, but she was busy making money with Liu Zhimo, so she pretended not to hear any of the village gossip.

Today, after she and Liu Zhimo finished their stall and returned, she saw that there were a lot of people surrounding the Liu Family residence, and the sound of wailing came from the crowd.

What happened?

Li Qingling and Liu Zhimo looked at each other. Anxiously, they ran back home.

As she ran to the doorstep, Li Qingling heard Li Qingning"s wails coming from inside the house.

She frowned and pulled an aunt who was standing at the very edge of the room. "Aunt, what"s going on? What happened? " Could it be that Madam Liu came to make trouble again?

The moment that aunt saw Li Qingling, she opened her mouth and shouted, "Xiao Ling is back."

Swoosh swoosh swoosh, the surrounding villagers all turned to look at Li Qingling. Some of their eyes were filled with schadenfreude, while others were filled with pity.

Being watched by so many people with different expressions, Li Qingling"s expression was calm. She indifferently swept her gaze across the surrounding people and asked, "What happened?"

After arriving here, she understood the temperament of the villagers very well. Wherever there was excitement, she would gather it all up.

Add to that the way they looked at her, I reckon this is serious.

"You caused the death of my child"s father, so you have to compensate my child"s father." At the same time the wailing sounds came, the people of the village opened up a path, a lady with scattered hair, whose face was filled with tears, rushed over, grabbed Li Qingling by the shoulders, and shook him: "Without children, how am I going to live?" How could she live with four children?

Li Qingling was stunned for a moment, she was so stunned by the woman"s shaking that she started to regain her senses.

Liu Zhimo walked forward, forcefully pulled away the woman"s hand, and pushed her away, dragging Li Qinglin behind him. His usually gentle face was currently as cold as ice.

"What do you mean?"

He remembered that the woman"s surname was Wu and her husband"s surname was Li. She was usually very aggressive and didn"t suffer any losses.

Sister-in-law Wu raised her swollen eyes and looked at Liu Zhimo, her eyes filled with hatred: "If it wasn"t for Li Qingling, this jinx, how could my child"s father have been eaten by the bear blind? It"s all her fault … " If Li Qingling had not said that the Matsuyama had food, the child"s father would not have ran over to the Matsuyama to look for food, and would not have lost his life.

All of this was caused by Li Qingling …

Liu Zhimo coldly glanced at Sister-in-Law Wu, his gaze sweeping one round around. In the village, he loudly asked: "Who knows about the specifics? "Come out and let"s talk." Seeing how Sister-in-Law Wu was faring, she couldn"t explain herself. "If you don"t want to say it, just report it to the officials and let them be investigated by Old Master Qingtian. We won"t bear the responsibility of causing someone"s death."

If they wanted Li Qingling to bear the burden of the crime, they would have to see if he was willing or not.

The surrounding people all went silent, and no one said a word.

Li Qingling walked out from behind Liu Zhimo, and looked around coldly: "The people who are heading to the Matsuyama, have they entered the deep forest? If not for us entering the deep forest, we would never have met the bear blind. " Although she felt sad that someone wouldn"t be able to come back, she wouldn"t allow anyone to slander her either, "I"ve warned you over and over again, don"t go deep into the mountains. Are you trying to ignore me?"

"You didn"t go, how did you know that you had entered the deep mountains?" Sister-in-Law Wu wiped her tears and scolded loudly as she stared at Li Qingling.

"Shut up …" Li Qingling looked at Sister-in-Law Wu sternly and drank a bit. Perhaps she was shocked by Li Qingling"s gaze, causing Sister-in-Law Wu to tremble slightly, unable to react for a moment.

Li Qingling took another deep breath, and her expression became even colder. Looking at the crowd, she pointed at a thirteen or fourteen year old boy named s.h.i.tou, "s.h.i.tou ge, you should know what"s going on. She remembered that the situation at Stone"s house wasn"t too good. In order to find food for her family, she had been following the villagers to Matsuyama.

Stone raised his head to look at Li Qingling, swallowed his saliva, and then stood up with small steps, "Yes … They have entered the depths of the mountains. " His voice trembled a little. Just thinking about that scene made him extremely afraid.

"s.h.i.tou ge, you don"t have to be afraid. Slow down, tell me everything from start to finish. What exactly is going on?" Li Qingling tried to console Stone.

Stone rubbed the corner of his clothes with his hands and nodded his head, "During this period of time, everyone has been going to Matsuyama to pick up food. All of the food at the periphery of Matsuyama has been picked up, there"s nothing much to pick up." As he spoke, he carefully glanced at Li Qingling again, and then met Li Qingling"s eyes. He hurriedly lowered his head in fright, "This time … This time when we go to the Matsuyama, everyone is … Everyone headed deeper into the mountain forest and discovered … After discovering that the deeper part of the forest had more food to eat, he decided to hunt there. Unexpectedly, he didn"t expect … will meet a bear blind … "

As he spoke to here, Stone"s entire body began to tremble. He must have been scared by that scene.

Both of Liu Zhimo"s hands rested on Rock"s shoulders, and he pinched his shoulders tightly, "Don"t be afraid, you"re safe now." He waited for Rock to calm down before asking, "Who among you encountered the bear blind first? Is it Big Brother Li? "

Stone nodded his head. His teeth were trembling all the while, making sounds of "ding dang dang" sounds as he said, "I … I... I"m not too far away from Big Brother Li, I heard … Hearing his screams, she wanted to run over to see what was happening, but … But right after, the bear blind also cried out … " Both of his hands were clasped tightly, his body was shaking uncontrollably, and even if Liu Zhimo were to press on his shoulders, it would be to no avail, "I … I saw Li Jun from afar. Brother Li was bitten by bear blind … … Bite it, I"m afraid... He turned around and followed … "Follow the others and run outside …" After saying that, he suddenly squatted down and started crying.

A half-grown child, seeing that scene for the first time, truly scared out of his wits.

Sister-in-Law Wu immediately began to cry as well. "The child"s father!" You died such a miserable death. Without you, what would the four of us do? " If a family lost their pillar of support, it would be equivalent to the collapse of this world.

Li Qingling looked at Sister-in-Law Wu, then at the other people who had sorrowful and fearful expressions, and asked them if what Stone said was true.

Those people all nodded and replied back to the situation at that time, it was indeed like that. When they saw the bear blind, they would desperately run out, not even bothering to hunt down any prey.

He was about to lose his life, so what did his prey count as?

"You all … How could you be so heartless? "He will not save us if he sees us die …" Sister-in-law Wu pointed at the people who went to the Matsuyama with her. If they had saved her, her child"s father might still be alive, and it was not that she couldn"t even see his corpse.

Those men"s faces turned red from being scolded by Sister-in-Law Wu. They opened their mouths a bit, but swallowed their words back down when they saw Sister-in-law Wu"s expression.

The men did not speak, but their wives did.

"Sister-in-law, what you said was wrong. What do you mean by not saving someone from death?" They encountered bear blind, bear blind are so powerful, you can"t possibly let us, the leaders, risk our lives to save them, right? If we die, how will we live? " A married woman, who hadn"t been married for long, glared angrily and retorted, "Don"t you think so?"

"That"s right, that"s right …" The other women nodded their heads in succession. Fortunately, their leader was lucky enough to escape and return. If they really did die, how would they know how to live? Just thinking about it made him extremely afraid!

Sister-in-Law Wu could not go against so many people by herself, so she covered her face and started crying. In the blink of an eye, she had once again targeted the young Li Qingling.

"It"s you, it"s you, the jinx. If it wasn"t for you saying that the Matsuyama ate you, my child"s father wouldn"t have died just like that, right?"

It didn"t matter if her family was poor, as long as her entire family was safe. But now, she didn"t even have this wish anymore.

Li Qingling tried to pull Liu Zhimo who wanted to speak, but her voice was louder than Liu Zhimo"s. After all, he was the one who was being targeted.

She raised her eyes and looked coldly at the crowd. Looking at their expressions, she could tell that they also agreed with Wu Jiu"s words.

I feel a little cold inside. This is the human heart!" If you encounter a good thing and don"t expect you, then when you encounter a bad thing, it will be because of you.

"Did I force him to go to Matsuyama for brother Li? "Huh?" Li Qingling"s gaze seemed to have frozen over as he shot a look at Sister-in-Law Wu. "At your house, when I was eating your meat and earned my money, why didn"t you say that you would split half with me? Now that something has happened, you should blame it on me. Is there such a logic? "

If not for them pointing at her in private and discussing it, did they think that she would be willing to tell them about Matsuyama"s food?

After she said this, the others didn"t dare to make a sound. They all lowered their heads, not daring to meet her gaze.

When the village chief informed you of this matter, he had clearly told you not to go deep into the mountains, and I had repeatedly warned you not to go deep into the mountains. At that time, you had all agreed, and in the blink of an eye, you have thrown those words to the back of your mind … " Li Qingling coldly snorted, "Now that something has happened, who should we blame? Isn"t it all because of your greed …? "

If they weren"t greedy, they wouldn"t have entered the deep mountains.

Moreover, with so many of them going deep into the mountains, even if the scent of their prey blood didn"t attract bear blind s, it would attract tigers and wolves. Sooner or later, they would be in trouble.

"Xiao Ling is right." With his hands behind his back and a cold expression on his face, he walked step by step to Li Qingling"s side and stood by her side. His eyes swept across the crowd as he said, "When I informed you about this at that time, did you say that you would not go to Matsuyama? You decide on your own whether or not you want to go into the depths of the mountains?"

Li Qingling shot a glance at the Village Chief, and cursed the old cunning fox in her heart. She had not appeared earlier, but had only appeared when she had settled most of the issues.

Everyone lowered their heads and did not utter a word. The village head snorted, "If you want to talk about ungrateful people, that would be you guys. In this period of time, all of you have made money and eaten meat. He had been greedy and lost his life, and yet he came here to cause trouble. "Huh?" He understood in his heart that the villagers would not dare to find trouble with him, so they could only look for trouble with Li Qingling.

Sigh, if he knew earlier, he wouldn"t have mentioned the Matsuyama anymore.
