I Woke the Sick and Disabled Prince on Our Wedding Night Novel - Chapter 362

362 Vitality

“By the way, now that you mention it, I feel like I have a higher chance of surviving.”

At this point, Lin Suisui suddenly laughed at the pale village chief and continued to dampen his spirits. “After all, their greatest goal is probably to negotiate a win-win situation with my husband.

However, you guys are different!

In order to ensure their own safety, they have to eliminate all hidden dangers, especially you guys.

!!
“Therefore, even if you guys don’t die, your outcome will probably be the same as that of the real villagers from before. You’ll enter the silver mine and become enslaved miners.”

This is the greatest value you guys can provide.

Lin Suisui sized up the village chief in disdain and satisfaction as he staggered back a few steps before standing still. Before the village chief could speak, she gave him another blow.

“By the way, Village Chief, you can wait if you want.”

I’ve already arranged for people to quietly go to the neighboring villages to investigate the situation. I believe there will be results soon.”

Since the Gu and Lin families had discovered that something was wrong and wanted to salvage the situation, they definitely wouldn’t just surround this village. Instead, they would confine all five villages involved at the same time.

As for whether they planned to silence them or something else…

They would probably be able to find out soon.

Lin Suisui didn’t lie to the village chief. Just as she had promised, soon, the village chief saw a familiar face. It was a villager who had a good relationship with him.

From time to time, they would meet, drink, and chat.

However, at this moment, this old friend, who had always looked extremely tough, looked very disheveled. One of his arms was gone, and most of his body was dyed with blood. When he was brought in by Su Le’s subordinates, he was almost dead.

“How, how did this happen?!” The village chief didn’t expect such a tragic scene.

He couldn’t help but shout, “No, this is impossible! The village is already surrounded. How did you guys bring him in?

You guys did this to extort me, right?!”

“Tsk, who has the time to deal with a nobody like you? How can those soldiers discover us if we want to go out?

We dug this person out of the pile of dead people in the neighboring village!

He was lucky to have survived by hiding at the foot of the mountain of corpses. However, from the looks of it, he probably won’t live for much longer. Instead of making wild guesses here, why don’t you hurry up and ask what’s going on?!”

Su Le spat at the village chief in disdain. As he explained to him, he took the powder from Bai Guo to treat the man on the ground, whose face was pale from excessive blood loss.

“Yes, it’s the main family.” Before the village chief could ask, the man lying on the ground spoke up. When he thought of what had happened in the village in the afternoon, he couldn’t help but cry. “They were people sent by the main family.

When we entered the village, they asked all of us to gather at the entrance of the ancestral hall. They said that everyone had worked hard these past few days, so the main family sent rewards to everyone and that every family had to be present to accept the rewards.

At that time, we didn’t think too much about it. We only thought that our master wanted to reward us, so we all went to the entrance of the ancestral hall according to his request.

“In the end, after they counted the names on the roster, they… attacked…”

After the man coughed a few times and took a deep breath, he looked at the village chief as he continued, “They attacked us directly with arrows and knives.

There was no cover at the entrance of the ancestral hall and no one was prepared, so who could escape such a massacre?

I was lucky. Although I was stabbed, I was pressed under someone else and barely survived until now. Brother, your village is fine now, not because they won’t attack you, but because they’ve gone to deal with the others in the neighboring village!

You guys are probably left until the last because of this madam.”

Su Le quickly treated the man’s injuries. He had just instructed that if this man cooperated, his life could be saved!

However, if he didn’t cooperate, he would die in the wilderness like the villagers he had seen previously.

“How dare they?” The village chief widened his eyes. Thinking about it and seeing it for himself were two completely different things. He really didn’t expect the usually amiable main family to be so ruthless!

“There’s nothing to be afraid of. In the eyes of the main family, how can our lives be worth as much as theirs?

Besides, even if they kill all of us, can’t they use the excuse that the northern barbarians or the mountain bandits slaughtered us?!

“It’s not too late for you to think of a solution. Don’t lose your lives like us!” The man tried his best to persuade the village chief. “Don’t think about your relatives with the main family anymore. If everyone here dies, how many relatives can survive?”

“What can I do?” The village chief was so desperate that he wanted to cry.

Even if he knew that they were doomed, what could he do?

Firstly, their family members were in the hands of the main family. If they didn’t cooperate now, they could survive, but what about their families… Secondly, in their current situation, there were soldiers with sharp weapons surrounding the village outside!

Even if they wanted to resist, could they defeat those powerful soldiers?

Wouldn’t that be suicide?!

“As long as you have the intention to resist, there’s still a chance of survival if you cooperate with me.”

Lin Suisui said to the village chief at the right time. The certainty in her tone made the village chief’s eyes light up. “Madam, are you serious?”

“Of course.” Lin Suisui nodded at the village chief with certainty as she smiled and said, “But the premise is that you have to persuade the villagers to listen to my arrangements.”

If everyone works together, it won’t be difficult to survive, but have you considered the future of the remaining people in your village after the current predicament is resolved?

“Oh right, have you considered the survival of your family members who are still in the hands of your master’s family at this time?”
