Chapter 9: The Dagger Revealed
Aunt Shen's voice was sharp and piercing, and soon all the villagers in the village gathered around.
The villagers either held hoes or held sticks and carried poles to surround Zhao Ling. They looked as fierce as they could.
Looking at the hundreds of people in the village surrounding him, Zhao Ling was numb.
Especially when he saw a big and strong man holding a carrying pole and rushing to him, shouting, "Who dares to trouble my mother?".
He couldn't help but laugh and slapped the rough man in the face, making him spin like a top for several rounds.
He slapped him in the opposite direction, which made the rough man who was originally rotating clockwise rotate counterclockwise again and finally fell to the ground.
He doesn't know whether to say that these villagers are ignorant of the world or that they are just young and fearless, brandishing swords and spears in front of a Titled Douluo like him.
If he has a stronger killing heart, these ignorant villagers will be in trouble.
Seeing Zhao Ling laughing, Ah Yin was also afraid that the villagers' reckless actions would anger him, so she quickly broke free from Aunt Shen's hand and quickly stopped in front of everyone.
"Dear villagers, don't be impulsive. He has no ill will towards us. He just injured his leg a few days ago and had to stay in our village for a few days. Don't make things difficult for him."
Ah Yin was of course not afraid that the villagers would make things difficult for Zhao Ling, but was worried that these villagers would irritate a Titled Douluo and bring disaster to the whole village.
No matter how good Zhao Ling's temper is, it must be limited. Among the humans that Ah Yin has seen so far, no one can remain calm and not hurt others after being angered.
What's more, Zhao Ling is a Titled Douluo standing at the top of the Douluo Continent?
Of course, the villagers don't know Ah Yin's difficulties. They can't help but frown and glare at Zhao Ling with dissatisfied eyes.
"Sister Yin, why are you speaking for a stranger from another village? You have been in our village for many years, right? You are half a villager. You can't be ungrateful."
"Yes, sister Yin, this stranger from another village is not a good person at first glance. He has shifty eyes. I saw him standing under a tree and talking to himself the other day. He smiled very obscenely. I think he must have bad intentions to stay in the village."
"Let him get out of our village. He must get out of our village. We don't welcome him!"
…
The villagers' words made Yin speechless. She never expected that the villagers who were usually kind would become so irrational now.
Mrs. Shen took Yin's hand and walked to the back, saying in a warning tone.
"Little girl, the men outside the village are all slick, sweet-mouthed, and treacherous. Don't be deceived by them. If you want to find a man, you should find one who is honest and hardworking like our Da Niu. Do you understand?
Only by marrying a man like our Da Niu who is honest, hardworking, and willing to take care of you for a lifetime can a woman's happiness belong to this life."
After pulling Ah Yin down, Aunt Shen gave her a pua. Ah Yin frowned after hearing those words.
Hearing his mother praise him, Aunt Shen's son got up from the ground, shook his dazed head, and then took the carrying pole with the villagers in an aggressive manner to try to drive Zhao Ling out of the village.
They shared a common hatred for the enemy, and the look of glaring at Zhao Ling was like the treasure they valued was about to be stolen by him. Zhao Ling immediately understood.
No wonder these people in the village have always been hostile to him. Aunt Shen has even been guarding him tightly and not letting me get close to Ah Yin's residence.
It seems that they all want their younger generations to marry Ah Yin, especially Aunt Shen, who goes to Ah Yin's residence every few days. I'm afraid she wants to take care of the "mother-in-law and daughter-in-law" relationship.
It's just... Zhao Ling smiled strangely. Aunt Shen and her son are probably having wishful thinking.
Who is Ah Yin? She is the incarnation of the 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor. She is staying in this small village now because she is still in her infancy and needs such a safe and stable environment to grow up in.
But she can't stay in this village for her whole life. These villagers actually want to keep her in this village, pua her, and let her accept the idea of marrying an ordinary villager in this village. It's unrealistic.
Even if he didn't show up here, Ah Yin would still leave in the future, and these villagers would never want to keep her.
Listening to the villagers' repeated words of "get out" and "the village doesn't welcome you," Zhao Ling smiled faintly and looked at Ah Yin, who was taken away by Aunt Shen.
"Hey, sister, can't you see it now? These villagers hope that you can completely integrate into this village, marry a younger generation in this village, and live an ordinary life.
However, sister, are you sure you want to stay in this village for the rest of your life? You and these villagers are not the same kind of people. In this small village, you will only bury yourself. Why don't you leave this village with me?"
Zhao Ling's words directly changed the faces of all the villagers present, and they all looked at Ah Yin.
For them, Ah Yin is definitely the unattainable white moonlight in their hearts. No matter who she will marry in the village in the future, she must stay in the village so that they can always appreciate her graceful figure.
If Ah Yin followed Zhao Ling and left now, it was uncertain whether she would return to the village in the future. Thinking that they would never see the white moonlight in their hearts again, they looked at Zhao Ling with more anger.
Zhao Ling's words also woke Ah Yin up. She recalled her experiences over the years and really felt that the villagers wanted to keep her in the village forever.
Especially Aunt Shen next door, who came to chat with her every two or three days. She originally thought that Aunt Shen was just being friendly, but now it seems that Aunt Shen is making a big move.
Just now Aunt Shen was trying to pua her so that she could not marry someone from another village. If she wanted to marry, she could only marry a young man in this village. Obviously, she had no good intentions.
Ah Yin was silent for a moment, then she broke away from Aunt Shen's hand with an apologetic look on her face, walked quickly to Zhao Ling, and bowed to everyone.
"I'm sorry, fellow villagers; maybe it's true, as he said, that this village is not suitable for me to stay for a lifetime. I have my ideals and my pursuits, and I can't stay in this small village for a lifetime.
In the past, fellow villagers have taken care of me a lot. I thank you all for your meticulous care, but this is not where I belong after all. Maybe this is the time for me to leave."
A Yin's words were firm, without any intention of negotiation. Before the matter was made clear, everyone could still be polite.
Now that the dagger is exposed, if she doesn't choose to leave, what if one day a villager who covets her beauty gets into her head and does something to her without her knowing it?
Ah Yin has heard of such things before. Even if she doesn't believe that these villagers will treat her like that, she still understands the principle that you should not have the intention to harm others, but you must be on guard against others.
Now, it may be the most appropriate time to leave the village with Zhao Ling...
