Chapter 139 Don't Let Him Get Away Easily
After Luo Han left carrying Fu Yu's body, Jiang Li and his companions confronted a group of villagers. Now the two sides are still in a stalemate and no one is giving in.
The villagers thought that Jiang Li only had four people, and they had a clear advantage in numbers. Moreover, this was inside Fuyun Village, so if they wanted to get people, they just had to shout.
But they were also afraid that among these four people there might be a master like Luo Han who could fight against dozens of people alone, so no one dared to rush forward.
It was simple that Jiang Li and his companions did not dare to move forward. They did not have Luo Han's ability. If they took a step forward, they would surely be knocked down by the villagers.
So just wait and see.
However, this situation was soon broken with the arrival of Yan Muhuai and others.
Yan Muhuai and his companions ran into Xu Jian not long after they walked back a few steps, making the team even stronger.
When Fu Cheng and many other villagers saw them, they didn't know whether they were frightened by Luo Han or by Yan Muhuai and Rong Jin, whom he had personally sent into the haunted house. They lost their breath and fainted in the crowd.
The leader fell, and the rest of the villagers fled in all directions, as if they were afraid that they would be beaten if they ran a step slower. In a blink of an eye, the road out of the village became unobstructed.
"You guys are really awesome. You scared them away as soon as you arrived. I was really afraid that they would rush over. My back is wet with sweat." Jiang Li smiled and gave a thumbs up to Yan Muhuai and the others.
Jin Yu saw Ming Fei's face. Although she had returned to normal now and looked like a pretty girl, the psychological trauma left by what happened just now was too heavy. She subconsciously hid beside Chen Xing'er and stretched out her little head to peek.
The group left the village and returned to the base camp set up by the program team.
Although Hou Yu has never come out of the steel house, he has been responding to the suspension of the show with the team.
A large number of netizens have speculated that the stories told in the live broadcast are true and that there must be something wrong with Fuyun Village. Some even suggested going to the scene to take a look at the situation.
This is what Hou Yu fears the most. Before the matter in Fuyun Village is resolved, no one except the police can come here.
Who knows if they will go back sideways since they came here vertically?
As a humble director with no one to rely on, he cannot bear such consequences.
After seeing that everyone returned safely, his heart finally settled down and he boldly rushed over to hug Rong Jin.
"What are you doing? You dare to attack the boss? Be careful, I'm going to beat you up." Ming Fei quickly used the box in her hand to block Hou Yu who was rushing towards her.
Hou Yu scratched the back of his head, looking a bit silly, "Hey, I am just so happy to see that you are all okay. Fortunately, you are okay, Mr. Rong. You don't know that I have just chosen my own grave, and I am waiting to be buried with you!"
"Director Hou, please don't say such unlucky words." Yan Muhuai couldn't stand hearing such words, so he immediately asked, "How long will it take for the police to arrive?"
They were the ones who reported the case, and since everyone had been in Fuyun Village, they needed to stay and give a statement, so they had to wait until the police came to question them before they could leave.
However, Yan Muhuai was not in a hurry to leave, as he couldn't let the old village chief get away so easily.
Speaking of the police, Hou Yu sighed deeply, "It may take some time. The nearest police station is very small and understaffed. We need to transfer people from other police stations. I guess we can't leave today."

In Fuyun Village, the old village chief was helped by the villagers back to his own home.
On the way, he kept repeating "They climbed out of the window", which scared the villagers who were sending him home.
"Village chief, let me ask Brother Fucheng to take care of you?" Compared with Fucheng, the villager could only be regarded as the third in command of the old village chief.
Fu Chengcai is the knife that the old village chief uses most skillfully.
But the village chief didn't listen to the villager at all. He just sat down and stood up again, grabbing the villager and saying, "Come with me to the haunted house. I want to go in and take a look."
The villagers knelt down and begged for mercy, "Village chief, please don't, I, I don't want to die yet, I haven't done anything to let you down, please spare my life?"
Everyone in Fuyun Village knew that the house would eat people, but they still sacrificed their relatives without hesitation.
Now the village chief wants to ask the villagers to go to the haunted house, which is tantamount to asking them to sacrifice themselves. How could he not be afraid?
The village chief looked at him with disdain, "Haven't you always been asking about my secret of immortality? It's in that house. If you're lucky, you might get God's blessing. Then I'll pass my position as village chief to you."
That’s right, the house was called a haunted house by the villagers, but in fact, when the village chief first proposed the sacrifice, he said that there was a god in it who could grant people longevity. As long as they sacrificed girls in the village regularly, the god would bless everyone with health and longevity.
He must have been talking nonsense at the beginning, and the sacrifice was just to use the wronged spirit of the girl to scare the souls of the ten people in the Fu family.
As the sacrificial ceremony continued, his life span grew longer and longer, and the legend he made up became the ancestral motto passed down from generation to generation in every family in Fuyun Village.
In order to ensure the safety of their families, they were certainly willing to sacrifice an insignificant young girl in their family.
They sacrificed their loved ones to the invisible gods, and regarded the village chief as the true god who protected the entire village. They obeyed his words, so much so that if he caught a slight rheumatic cold, the villagers would spontaneously offer sacrifices.
Thinking of the treatment the village chief received, the villager was no longer afraid. He quickly got up from the ground and supported the village chief. "Can I really get God's blessing? Can I be the next village chief?"
His face was filled with greed, it was simply disgusting.
"If you still act like a coward after entering the house, it will be hard to say what will happen." The village chief glanced at the villager's face and took great pains to avoid hitting him with his crutch.
The villagers immediately helped the village chief to the haunted house and repeatedly assured him, "I'm not afraid anymore, really, village chief. I'm not afraid at all now."
But in fact, the village chief himself was afraid. Ever since the Fu family’s property was emptied from the house a hundred years ago, allowing him to enjoy himself, he has never set foot in the house again.
During every sacrificial ceremony, he would stand far away and watch. He was more afraid of approaching the haunted house than anyone else in the village.
Even though he comforted himself along the way, he was still worried. Yan Muhuai's words lingered in his ears like the devil's whisper.
"The village chief is right. Where do ghosts come from in this world? Fu Yu escaped from the window on the second floor of the haunted house. We took the same route as she did."
Before it gets dark, he must verify whether he can really escape through the second-floor window.
The villager was so overwhelmed by the delusion of becoming the village chief that he was not afraid anymore. When he reached the door, the village chief was still a little hesitant, but he half-dragged and half-pulled the village chief into the house.
Suddenly a cold wind blew over, making the two of them shiver.
The windows on the second floor can be seen directly from the courtyard on the first floor, but it is too far away to see if there are any signs of someone escaping.
"Ah!" When the village chief looked up at the second floor, the villagers saw the bones piled up in the hall and couldn't help but screamed.
The village chief was frightened by his shouting and immediately knocked him on the head with his walking stick, "Have you never seen a skeleton? Why are you so startled? Come with me to the second floor."
