Miao Tianlong stood in front of Ruxue and Yanyan, guarding them behind him: "Girl, listen up. I will try my best to convince the villagers later. If I fail to persuade... you two just run away if you can."
Run as far as you can."
Ruxue, however, said decisively: "Clan leader, we want to go together. If persuasion fails, it doesn't matter, we still have the strength to fight. Don't forget our natal Gu."
Yanyan also said: "Yes, when Ruxue and I left Baimiao, we brought a lot of Gu worms with us. The fighting power of these Gu worms cannot be underestimated!"
While the three of them were discussing, the villagers from Donglai Village had already rushed to them.
The village chief Dong Laishun waved his hand: "Folks, surround them!"
The villagers immediately rushed up and surrounded Miao Tianlong and the three of them.
The murderous intent in their eyes was terrifying.
Miao Tianlong quickly explained: "Folks, don't be afraid, we don't mean any harm. In fact, we are here to help you."
The village chief Dong Laishun glared at Miao Tianlong and ignored him. Instead, he walked straight to the medicinal materials that Miao Tianlong and the others had ground and studied them carefully.
Miao Tianlong quickly explained: "Folks, these are the antidotes used to save you."
Dong Laishun didn't respond and continued to stir up the medicinal materials carefully.
After a while, Dong Laishun dug out a palm-sized bone fragment from the medicinal materials and said emotionally: "Damn, this is a skull. They really ruined the ancestral graves and the bones of the ancestors!"
After he finished speaking, other villagers also became excited and shouted to fight and kill!
"Ci'ao, it's all their fault. Our village has become a mess. They must sacrifice their lives to make amends!"
"Village chief, give the order quickly, I can't wait to kill them."
"You dare to come to our territory to cause trouble, you are so impatient!"
Miao Tianlong and Ruxue Yanyan's expressions changed rapidly.
The situation still took a turn for the worst.
To be honest, it was a little hard for them to understand. They didn't know why the villagers were so sure that they were here to harm the villagers, and they didn't know why the village chief believed that a bone in the medicinal materials was the bone of their ancestor.
Miao Tianlong quickly explained: "Folks, there is a misunderstanding. This is a misunderstanding. Those are not human bones at all, but oracle bones."
"We really don't have any bad intentions when we come here. Don't be impulsive."
Dong Laishun sneered again and again: "Humph, are you still making excuses here, do you think we are fools?"
"Well, you said these are not human bones, but some so-called oracle bones. Prove it to us!"
"If you can prove it, I will believe you."
Miao Tianlong was a little embarrassed.
From a scientific point of view, human bones and oracle bones are both bones. It is difficult to distinguish them based on their current conditions.
Fortunately, Ruxue spoke in time: "Okay, folks, don't worry, I can prove it to you now!"
"You should know that human bones tend to produce will-o'-the-wisps in summer. That's because human bones are not resistant to high temperatures and burn easily."
"The bones of animals are different. They are difficult to burn. You only need to use fire to ignite the bone. If the bone burns easily, it is a human bone. If it does not burn or is difficult to burn, it is an animal bone."
In fact, this is just Ruxue making it up to stabilize the mood of the villagers.
Whether bones are flammable or not depends on the amount of "scale" elements in the bones.
Bones that are old will contain scales, and vice versa.
The oracle bones they use are old and almost inorganic, so they are naturally not easy to burn.
I hope I can fool the folks.
Judging from the expressions of the villagers, most of them believe it, but only a few are still dubious.
Someone asked cautiously: "Village chief, is this correct?"
