Chapter 620 Kang Xun's Betrayal of the Village
Chapter 647 Kangxun rebelled against the village
"Brother Kang, what do you mean?" Mo'er looked puzzled.
"You know what it means, don't pretend to be confused here!" Kang Ping said bluntly.
"I really don't know." Mo'er said with her head tilted.
"Mo'er, let me ask you, what were you doing just now and who are you with?" the old village chief said to Mo'er.
"I'm in my own room. By the way, Sister Li'er has been with me all the time. She can testify for me. I've been in my own room just now." Moer said with confidence.
Li'er was invited, and she did testify for Moer.
"If Mo'er didn't lie, then it was Xiao Lingyu lying. Mo'er had Lier to testify. Xiao Lingyu, do you have witnesses?" The deputy village chief said to Xiao Lingyu.
"Although I have no evidence, how can you guarantee that Mo'er and Li'er are not colluding?" Xiao Lingyu retorted.
"Collaboration? Why did they collude to harm you?" the deputy village chief asked with a strange smile.
"I'm afraid the deputy village chief knows this better than me?" Xiao Lingyu said without showing any weakness.
"Village Chief, what should you do about this matter? The villagers outside are watching and waiting." The deputy village chief did not argue with Xiao Lingyu, but threw the problem to the old village chief.
"There are still many doubts about this matter..."
"Suspicious? Where are there any doubts? His quibbling cannot be regarded as a doubt. We always have to pay attention to real evidence when doing things."
Before the old village chief finished speaking, the deputy village chief had already intercepted the conversation. This was the first time in many years that he was so anxious.
The old village chief obviously wanted to cover up the matter and didn't want to deal with it now. He did suspect that there was something wrong with this matter, so it took some time to check it carefully, but the deputy village chief was not willing to do so.
"Dispose of thieves!"
"Go to the stake!"
"Call out!"
Some villagers outside started shouting loudly, which also attracted many villagers who had not yet figured out the situation and shouted together.
Now most of the villagers outside Yueru's house don't know who the so-called thief was. Many villagers even just came over and didn't know anything, so they shouted together.
If everyone knew that the so-called thief was Xiao Lingyu, they would probably not have shouted so loudly and neatly.
But no matter what, there is already a momentum outside. In front of so many villagers, the old village chief should really give an explanation.
As one of the parties involved, Yue Ru didn't know what to say, so she naturally didn't believe that Xiao Lingyu would have any bad intentions for her, and she always thought that Xiao Lingyu was an upright and trustworthy person.
Although Yue Ru is simple, she can imagine that it was the deputy village chief who designed to frame Xiao Lingyu, but no one has any evidence to prove this.
"How should this matter be handled?" the old village chief asked the deputy village chief.
"According to village rules, such despicable behavior should be executed by stake!"
The deputy village chief responded without thinking and said, "Of course, he is the benefactor of our village and has also made a lot of great contributions to our village. Naturally, he cannot be executed, but in order to avoid any harm from the future, he must be expelled from the village."
The old village chief was in a dilemma, and Yue Ru even shouted "No". They both knew best that the reason why this village can exist to this day is because Xiao Lingyu is in the village.
If Xiao Lingyu was expelled from the village, then if the Silver Armored Legion attacked Lingu Village again, Lingu Village would probably not be as easy as last time.
But the charge of this thief is quite serious, and it is indeed unreasonable if he does not deal with it.
The shouts outside the house were still coming one after another, especially the people from the deputy village chief's sect, which had almost never stopped since the beginning.
"hehe."
At this moment, the old village chief suddenly laughed.
"I said before that there must be a traitor in the village. At that time, I was not sure who this traitor was, but now..."
The old village chief looked at the deputy village chief and continued, "Now I can determine who is the traitor."
The deputy village chief was stared at by the old village chief, but his back was straight, without any guilt or fear.
"Kang Xun, I don't know why you were a traitor, but you did it too obvious this time."
The old village chief turned to look at the villagers outside the house and said, "Our Lingu Village relied on Xiao Lingyu's heroic performance to overcome the previous difficulties. Xiao Lingyu is a strong man in our Lingu Village. At this time, the only one who wants him to leave our village the most is naturally our enemy. Today's traitor is obviously Kang Xun deliberately designed to frame Xiao Lingyu."
"Ha ha!"
Deputy Village Chief Kang Xun laughed and said, "Old Village Chief, do you say I am a traitor, but there is evidence? How can you prove it if you say I framed Xiao Lingyu? I think you are deliberately exonerating him!"
The old village chief looked at Kang Xun and said, "Evidence, haha, you can prove that you are a traitor without evidence. Everyone in the village, except you, has made an oath that the soul will never betray. If anyone is a traitor, he will be disheartened. But you have never made such a vow. Only you who betray Lingu Village will not be bound by the oath."
The whole village has indeed made a soul oath, and it is said that there is no exception for anyone. Even the old village chief has made a oath back then. As for why the deputy village chief did not make a oath, it is not something ordinary villagers can know.
"Just because I didn't swear, I just said I was a traitor. This is also evidence?" the deputy village chief argued.
"Haha, then do you dare to make a vow in front of everyone? If you have done anything that is sorry for Lingu Village, you will be distracted. Do you dare?" the old village chief asked with a sneer.
"If you doubt me, I will swear even if I swear. However, if you say that I have designed to frame Xiao Lingyu, you have to come up with some decent evidence and rhetoric?" The deputy village chief said without changing his face.
"If it weren't for the frame-up, Xiao Lingyu would have to sneak in here in the middle of the night to peek at Yue Ru Pharmacist. The two of them had already decided to live for life. When Lingu Village overcomes this difficulty, they would get married. Do you think he has any bad intentions to come here in the middle of the night? Isn't it too much to do this? He can come over openly." The old village chief said astonishingly.
All the villagers, including the deputy village chief, who heard this, were stunned on the spot, and then started to whisper and discuss.
Xiao Lingyu and Yue Ru were also stunned for a moment, but Xiao Lingyu quickly came back to his senses. He knew that the old village chief was saying this on purpose, in order to erase the name of the traitor.
After returning to his senses, Yue Ruze looked embarrassed and embarrassed. She had never dared to look up, but now her face turned red and sank a little.
"Haha, old village chief, Kang Xun really underestimates you. As the head of a village, I just accused me of being a traitor, and now I'm lying in front of everyone. I really don't know what Xiao Lingyu has to do with you. Could it be your illegitimate child? Are you so protective of him?" Kang Xun said with a big smile.
"Did I lie about this? You can ask them both?" The old village chief looked at Xiao Lingyu and Yueru.
Xiao Lingyu didn't want to ruin Yue Ru's reputation as a pharmacist because of this matter, but before he could speak, Yue Ru nodded, and she also said, "That's right, we are in love and we have indeed had an engagement."
Yue Ru said this, and in front of so many villagers, if Xiao Lingyu said that there was no such thing, it would not only waste the good intentions and painstaking efforts of the old village chief and Yue Ru, but also make Yue Ru criticized by the villagers. So he could only thank him in his heart and no longer deny him.
