I'm wearing it, but I'm still suffering.

Chapter 241 The Cause of the Incident

"If that's the case, then why weren't you here? When we found you, you came out and told us the first time." Liu Yingxiong asked.

Villager A: "Yes, if we hadn't said we were going to report it to the police, you wouldn't have come out at all."

Villager B: "Also, although we are refugees from famine, we do want to settle down as soon as possible. But the situation in your village makes me feel that I haven't settled down yet."

Living in such an environment feels more tiring than fleeing famine. Because we don’t know when we will die inexplicably.”

Seeing that everyone was getting angrier and angrier, Lin Xuan quickly tried to appease them, "Don't worry, this is the village where my grandfather and his family were born and raised. I believe he wants to resolve this matter as soon as possible, more than anyone else."

Now that you have settled in Luoya Village, you are a member of this village. It is a great honor to have such wise and brave people like you here.

I believe that as long as everyone is willing to work together to find a solution, no matter how difficult the problem is, it can always be solved."

The villagers were furious, but when they calmed down and thought about it, they realized he had a point. Even if they got angry again, it wouldn't solve the problem. They decided to listen to what the village chief had to say.

Then the yard returned to a brief period of peace.

Wang Feng had no choice but to continue, "This story actually started half a year ago. Back then, we were just like you today. We suddenly fainted for no apparent reason, and the whole village was in a panic."

"Because the whole village fainted suddenly, the first thing we thought of was that we might have been poisoned."

"It's possible that our entire village was poisoned. The person who poisoned us probably put the poison in the well we usually drink."

"So, from that day on, our village spontaneously organized people to patrol the wellhead all day long."

Liu Yingxiong continued his words: "But the result should be useless!"

Wang Feng nodded and said, "Yes, we were on guard for five consecutive days. On the morning of the sixth day, our village suddenly had another case of everyone fainting."

"This time, the fainting made me think that the villagers were lazy during patrol, which gave the enemy an opportunity. But after questioning, everyone swore on their lives that they would never slack off when on duty."

"So, I was wondering if we had the wrong target from the beginning! But thinking about it carefully, we couldn't find anything else other than poison that could cause such a large number of people to become unconscious."

"Perhaps, the other party used some means that you are not aware of?" someone raised doubts.

Wang Feng: "After discussing it with the villagers, we came to the only conclusion. Therefore, while we insisted on protecting the well, we also carried out patrols throughout the village."

"So no one has fainted since then?" someone asked.

Wang Feng: "No, those who should have fainted still fainted as usual. But we also found that apart from the sudden fainting, we didn't suffer any other losses or injuries."

"Therefore, we have no idea what is going on. Some family members who are working outside the home, seeing that the situation is not right, have taken their family members to live with them temporarily, hoping that after some time, the matter will be fully clarified before returning."

Liu Yingcai said: "So the house we live in now is their house."

Wang Feng nodded.

He added, "Even the young people in our village who can find work have tried their best to leave. Those who are left are either too old to move, or they can't leave because they have to take care of the elderly at home."

Liu Yingcai asked, "Did you ever think about investigating this matter again?"

Wang Feng shook his head and said, "It's useless. We've tried everything we can think of, but it's all in vain. We even tried reporting it to the police. But when the authorities heard we hadn't caused any property damage, and there hadn't been any murders, they came and found nothing wrong. On the contrary, they accused us of making false reports and beat us up when we went to report it."
