Neither touching nor eating

Yang Jie and the rest of the women walked over to the unconscious woman who was lying on the side of the road. Though she was beaten to death, she was still breathing since the villagers of the Big Mountain Village could not bring themselves to kill this woman even when she tried to kidnap a child from their village to eat. 

The one who were victims were sympathetic and merciful but the accomplices who came with the woman were not, they all knew that if this woman did not die then they will have to offer their children one after another, even if Tan Mo's daughter was next, she had given grains to Village head Chou and the woman would not target Tan Mo for a few days until the grains run out but the same could not be said for them!
