Momo’s face didn’t look good.

The first reason was that he got hurt seriously. On the other hand— he was pissed.

He was not a mundane person. When he heard about the thing happened 45 years ago, he still felt that it was unimaginable. But today when he witnessed the atrocity of the villagers of Lui Village, he felt it was ridiculous and was enraged.

“They won’t come here.”

Momo looked at this panic-stricken woman, asking indifferently, “Are you OK?”

She was not OK at all.

Luo Aiyu was totally frightened!

She was still nervous and fearful. Even though she was saved, she didn’t believe anybody. The overly-scared landlady stepped back, her face was filled with vigilance, “Who…who are you?”

“I’m Momo.” Momo answered calmly, “I’m a tourist. Why did they treat you like that?”

Luo Aiyu collected herself, shaking her head. When she thought of those patients who were pushed down from Hear-The-Sea Cliff, she understood something vaguely. So she answered, “Maybe… maybe because I got married here and came from another place. This village doesn’t treat outsiders well.”

“Outsiders are OK, but they are not that polite to those who got married here from other places,” Momo shook his head.

Luo Aiyu sighed, “I heard that this poor village doesn’t allow the villagers to marry outsiders, neither male or female.”

Momo didn’t plan to judge the custom— because he knew something more ridiculous. He shook his head, “Where do you live? Let me send you back and think about a way to solve it.”

Luo Aiyu feared, “No, I won’t go back! They’ll catch me again then… No, I must leave this f*ckin place!”

Momo looked at Luo Aiyu’s poor appearance, saying calmly, “But you should go back to pack your baggage or you won’t go far only by yourself.”

Luo Aiyu gaped, feeling this unknown guy was right.

But after this thing, she wouldn’t believe in anyone else, including this skillful and powerful guy!

Like those martial arts movie stars, if she didn’t see it herself, she wouldn’t believe those could be true in real life.

However… he didn’t look like a good guy with the blonde hair!

“Then, fine.” Luo Aiyu gritted her teeth, considering the next situation would be no more serious than before. This guy could save her, so he wouldn’t be a totally bad one.

“I’m living in the resort on the hillside.”

Momo was stunned, frowning.

The resort on the hillside? That was where that senior lived.

‘Go there, or not?’

…

…

Both sides, Grandpa A Bao’s group, and the younger group that was controlled by Wu QIushui.

They lived in the same village, but they were in a stalemate.

“Are you choosing to not obey the law? Get back! We can send the patients to a hospital with better medical equipment after the roads have been unblocked! This is not a curse! Do believe in science!” Wu Qiushui shouted, “Do you want the tragedy of that year to happen again?”

“Bullshit! Science? Not a curse?!” A Bao was very old, but still full of energy like Wu Qiushui, “Then tell me what it is? Is it a cold? Fever? Variola? What disease could turn people’s appearance into this!”

Wu Qiushui said with anger, “It’s very common that you didn’t see all of the diseases in this big world. The point is to make the reason of the infection clear and then cure it! Not believing in the illusory sea lord!”

A Bao snorted, “Then tell me why the roads were all blocked? Why were the boats broken? And why did the landslide happen on the same day! Don’t tell me they were merely a coincidence!”

“I’ll make clear all of them but I need time!” Wu Qiushui held a strong attitude, “But I won’t allow you to act recklessly! Go back now!”

A Bao knocked the ground with his walking stick, “We have to sacrifice that woman to the sea lord today so that our village will be protected! Secretary Wu! Wu Qiushui! Get away! We’ll respect you in peacetime because of your identity. But this issue is the key whether Lui Village will exist in the future, it’s our own business, I won’t allow you as an outsider to interpose in this matter!”

“You!”

Wu Qiushui even had an impulse to slap this impenetrable old guy.

“She’s not here.” Wu Qiushui took a deep breath, “All of you go back home! There is only a kid and some tourists! It’s a private place, you can’t do whatever you want.”

A Bao snorted, “Can I trust you? You try to keep that woman, so you say no! Even the guy who hurt so many people might be following your words!”

“I don’t know that person either. Don’t slander me!” Wu Qiushui glared.

His glare shocked A Bao’s heart but he still ordered, “Go search her! Go in to take her out!”

Watching this old man incited other seniors by his reputation, Wu Qiushui felt helpless, “Keep them off! Don’t let them enter! Everyone should have a baseline! Grandpa A Bao, are you happy to see youngers fight with their seniors?”

A Bao snorted, “Do you still know that we are their seniors? Then why you ask them to go against us? Are you gonna take actions on us? Kids, who watched you guys grow up? Go away!”

Those young villagers hesitated behind Wu Qiushui… many of them were really their seniors.

Taking advantage these young ones hesitated, A Bao waved his walking stick, “Go in the room and search for her!”

“F*ck!! I have tolerated you old bastard for a very long time!”

At this time, Ren Ziling chased you with a hoe, striking it to the ground, “Don’t confuse the truth and the lie. Stop talking bullshit. Old fart! Come on! Bully the girl and the old here! Are you men? Come here! Let me punch you one by one!”

“Leave that woman alone! Rush in there!” A Bao shouted!

No one would be afraid of a woman. Those seniors at the back rushed out. But the lady was quite doughty, brandishing the hoe at a venture. Nobody dared to get close.

“Let’s go! If we can’t find the person, we’ll all be sworn to death!” A Bao yelled again.

More people’s temerarious advance constrained Ren Ziling to retreat.

“Don’t screw around!” Wu Qiushui couldn’t help coming out boldly to a villager but had been pushed down.

“Secretary!”

Little Du got surprised, rushing to help but he was caught by those crazy people— As to those young villagers, some came to stop them; some hesitated, and others were hiding at the side.

But the people who were rushing messed up the scene.

When Ren Ziling was unable to defend, a blast was suddenly heard from the entrance of the resort.

Along with a low yell, “Stop! Or I’ll shoot you guys!!”

Two continuous gunshots came after it.

Those villagers were scared, seeing a slightly fat middle-aged person with mustache port arms and fire a shot.

Next, 3 young men appeared at the back of him… They wore policeman uniforms. They were pointing their pistols at those villagers.

“Put your tools down! Step aside!”

The middle-aged man said fiercely, “Or I’ll let you know the consequence of assaulting police!”

…

“Thank you! Officer! How did you know and come here?”

Wu Qiushui regained calmness, walking up to the policeman, asking. But he didn’t reply; instead, he went to Ren Ziling.

Subeditor Ren supported her body with one of her hands holding the hoe. The other hand on her hips, panting and glaring at him.

The policeman talked tolerantly, “Well… Sister, can you be a little bit placid next time?”

“Can you come earlier next time?” Ren Ziling replied sourly, “If you came late, I’ll die from having my head smashed in!”

The middle-aged policeman gave a miserable look, “My god, I started off as soon as I received your call last night! But transferring the police is much harder than farting! I borrowed the helicopter without permission and will be seriously scolded then. And it’s lucky to find and touch down in this poor place! Cool down!”

Ren Ziling threw down the hoe, gasping for air, “Give me some water…”

…

“Sister Ren, water!”

Lizi ran to get a bottle of water asking in a low voice, “Sister Ren, is he Officer Ma? Why did he come?”

Gulping some water, Ren Ziling said, “I felt that this village was weird last night, disease attacked while the roads are blocked. So I thought I should ask for rescue! My son said don’t act recklessly in others’ places but we can make it into our place for now!”

“No wonder you’re so unperturbed, turns out you have got supporters.” Lizi expressed her surprise.

Ren Ziling felt indifferent to the compliment, wiping the water stains on her face and walking to Ma Houde.

Then, those villagers had to obey the policeman with guns. Hands on their head, squatted on the road—What a splendid spectacle.

“Old Ma, I told you about the situation. What will you do next?” Ren Ziling asked.

Ma Houde frowned, shaking his head, “I’m not sure… it’s quite a complicated issue made by a group. By the way, where’s Luo Qiu? Is he safe? Why isn’t he here?”

Ren Ziling shook her head, “He went out in the morning, I don’t know where he is now and worrying about… my god, he came back!”

Luo Qiu held two bags, walking down the mountain road slowly.

He slightly gaped while witnessing those squatting villagers, all his friends, and the girl Lui Yiyun.

The girl was shocked, gazing at him… He should be tied in the wooden room!

Luo Qiu walked to the two.

“Officer Ma? What happened?”

“Oh, it’s…” Officer Ma was about to tell.

While Ren Ziling walked to Luo Qiu, hugging him and changing the topic, “Where did you go? You know it scared me!”

She acted as a female general when she brandished the hoe but became a weak woman when she embraced Luo Qiu.

“I went out for some veggies because there’s nothing left in the kitchen.” He glanced at Lui Yiyun, who suddenly moved her gaze away. Luo Qiu said softly, “I don’t want the girl to look after us since some accidents happened.”

“Do you have to turn off the cell phone?” Ren Ziling let go of Luo Qiu, glaring at him with no anger.

“…No signal.”

Ren Ziling fell into silence, rolling up her eyes with a smile, “Well, I forgive you!”

Ma Houde, “???”

He got into a muddle.

…

Suddenly a phone rang among those villagers… one villager answered it under a huge pressure from the policemen.

“Gosh! Grandpa A Bao… all other villagers were infected with the disease, all of them!!”
