Even if Qin Shu slept deeply, he would not fall asleep like this in just a few breaths!

Shen Ping'an's immortal energy hit Qin Shu Lingtai, but Qin Shu still had no reaction at all.

"Hiss, has she been tricked now?"

Tang Hao looked incredulous.

Qin Shu fell into the trap just after eating!

Shen Ping'an raised his head and looked at the village chief, his overly sharp eyes making the village chief tremble.

How could the village chief have thought of asking the immortal chief to help them solve the strange things in the village? The cause of this strange thing has not been found yet, so let's bring in an immortal chief first!

In an instant, the village chief was trembling all over, and he knelt on the ground with a plop, but he didn't know how to defend himself.

"Is there something wrong with these dishes?"

Tang Hao looked at the dishes on the table suspiciously.

There were only two mortals, Qin Yue and Qin Shu. Qin Shu was attacked right after eating. Apart from the problem with the food, Tang Hao really couldn't think of any other possibility!

Shen Ping'an didn't speak, but silently explored the food on the table.

Because of the visit of the Immortal Chief, the village chief cooked all the bacon that his family had been reluctant to eat and put together a table of delicious dishes.

Now the village chief is banging his head and lamenting the pity in his heart.

That's meat.

He couldn't bear to eat.

If he had known it would turn out like this, he would have tasted it a few times to get enough of it.

Now that I've angered the immortal, I'm afraid I won't be able to eat anymore.

The village chief didn't hate him, he just regretted the pot of bacon.

The food looked normal. The village chief and Qin Shu had eaten together just now. She recalled the scene just now, but Shen Ping'an really didn't pay attention to what the village chief and Qin Shu had eaten.

While Shen Pingan was inspecting the dishes, Luo Wenyuan and Qin Yue also came in.

"What did you do to Qin Shu!"

Seeing Qin Shu lying limply on the ground, Qin Yue screamed and rushed towards Shen Pingan.

Shen Ping'an ducked aside to avoid Qin Yue.

"She was asleep like the other villagers."

Hearing these words, Qin Yue screamed even louder.

Although her relationship with Qin Shu was average, she couldn't stand Shen Pingan even more!

"How could this be?"

Luo Wenyuan also exclaimed, the silence spell on him had been released.

"Qin Shu just fell asleep after eating."

"I knew that this idiot Qin Shu only wanted to eat!"

Qin Yue gritted her teeth, hating the taste of iron that could not turn into steel.

"Is there something wrong with these meals?"

Luo Wenyuan hissed.

"What do other villagers eat on weekdays?"

Shen Ping'an placed a formation around the outside of the meals, keeping the meals as they were, and then looked at the village chief who kept kowtowing.

The village chief's forehead had been knocked out with blood, and now the blood was flowing down his forehead, which was very scary.

"Wild vegetable dumplings, eggs... I'll take you to see them."

The village chief got up and limped to take Shen Ping'an to see what he usually ate.

They are all vegetarian, and the only meaty flavor is the eggs.

In addition to the village chief's house, the village chief took Shen Ping'an and the others to visit other houses.

Most of the people who are not sleeping in the village are old people and women. These people all have similar diets, each eating more vegetarian food than the other, and the biggest meaty food is eggs.

Meat is even less available.

The elderly and women are reluctant to eat. Even if there is meat, it is given to the head of the family or left to the children.

And those who were sleeping were mostly strong laborers and children.

"Don't you usually eat meat?"

"How dare you give it up?"

The person who spoke was not the village chief, but another old man who was not sleeping in the village.

"We are old bones, so it doesn't matter if we miss a few bites. If we have meat, it must be eaten by our eldest grandson Yao'er."

"My eldest grandson is pitiful. He hasn't woken up yet. I still have bacon saved up and I'm waiting to make bacon for him when he wakes up!"

As the old lady spoke, she couldn't help but wipe away her tears.

"Can you show me the bacon you saved?"

Shen Ping'an already had a guess in his mind.

The old lady nodded and took Shen Ping'an to see the bacon she had stored.

"How long has this meat been stored?"

"Three years."

The old lady counted them on her fingers.

"Village chief, when did you make the bacon at home?"

Shen Pingan looked at the village chief again.

"It was also made three years ago. Three years ago, a pig in our village was killed. The pig became fat. Many people cut the meat and made bacon..."

The village chief said, seeming to realize something.

"Maybe the problem is the bacon."

Shen Ping'an sighed and followed the village chief to several other houses that made bacon.

Those families who fell into deep sleep were also the families who had their flesh cut off back then.

The one who fell asleep first was also the first to eat meat.

"this……"

The village chief looked at Shen Pingan in disbelief.

"Is the problem the bacon?"

"No, it should be the pig from back then."

What Shen Ping'an doesn't understand is, is there any need to target this village?

This whole village is full of mortals, so what's the use of targeting them?

Unfortunately, too much time has passed and the pig can no longer be found.

"It's actually bacon!"

Tang Hao also looked incredulous, "No wonder the old man and the woman basically didn't fall asleep, because they are reluctant to eat meat, so naturally they will not be affected."

Luo Wenyuan did not expect such a reason. Who would have thought that the root cause actually lies in a pig that was killed three years ago!

"Village chief, who raised that pig that was killed back then?"

Although the source of the slumber that caused them to fall into a deep sleep was found, why they fell into a deep sleep after eating the pig's meat was still not solved.

"I raised it." The village chief smiled bitterly. "Strictly speaking, that pig was a piglet I picked up at the foot of the mountain four years ago. I brought it back and raised it."

"The piglets grow fast and well. I have raised them for more than a year, and they have grown to more than 500 kilograms!"

"At that time, I went to the mountains every day to cut pig grass for him to eat. Later, I fell and my legs and feet were bad and I couldn't feed them anymore, so I killed the pigs with the strong laborers in the village and divided the meat."

At this point, the village chief couldn't help but cover his face and cry bitterly.

Who would have thought that it was his kindness that harmed the people in the village!

"Didn't Xiaoyu recover after being taken back to the mountains..."

Qin Yue muttered again.

Now I can't find the remains of the pig, but Qin Yue keeps talking about Xiaoyu's injury three years ago, which arouses Shen Ping'an's curiosity.

"Qin Yue, please tell me in detail."

"Let me tell you."

Luo Wenyuan glared at Qin Yue and sighed.

As for Qin Yue, who knows if Qin Yue will deliberately discredit Xiaoyu!

He already owed Xiaoyu a lot, so he couldn't let Qin Yue smear Xiaoyu at this time!

Shen Ping'an didn't mind who said it, she was just curious about what happened back then.

If this matter is really related to Xiaoyu...

Shen Ping'an really couldn't figure out why Xiaoyu had any need to target the villagers in this village.

These are just a group of mortals!
