Lai Yi suddenly became anxious, "But, but I think you should go back as soon as possible..."
"I think, you see, my friend has drunk too much. He must have lied down to rest now. Even if he goes back early, he is not in a hurry for this night, right? Besides, it's so late at night, where can I go easily?"
Liu Shengsheng said with a smile on her face, and then said: "Young lady is so nervous, but is there anything important?"
"I……"
"Xiaoyi, what are you doing?"
Patriarch Lin's voice suddenly came from beside him, and Lai Yi quickly closed his mouth, "No, I'm toasting the girl."
Patriarch Lin walked up to her with a smile, "You have to be thoughtful, haha, but this girl is concentrating on eating, so don't disturb me and sit back quickly."
"yes……"
As Lai Yi retreated, another maid brought new dishes to the table.
Patriarch Lin was still entertaining everyone with a smile. Liu Shengsheng put a mouthful of food into a bowl, took a sip and whispered, "There are problems with the next few dishes."
After hearing this, Nan Muze immediately put down his chopsticks.
Xiao Jiang, who had been paying attention to them, saw this and put down his bowls and chopsticks, and at the same time wiped his lips with a handkerchief.
Yi Zhou was enjoying his meal and didn't even notice the abnormality of several people. After eating several mouthfuls, he realized that Xiao Jiang had been staring at him.
"Look ***? Is there food on my face?"
Xiaojiang: "..."
Yi Zhou turned to look at Liu Shengsheng again, "Girl, these pig's trotters are so delicious. I haven't had hot meals for several days, so you should eat more."
Liu Shengsheng didn't show any abnormality and just nodded gently.
Suddenly realizing that many eyes around them were staring at them, Liu Shengsheng picked up the chopsticks, took a few bites, and put some food into Nan Muze's bowl.
Nan Muze obviously believed in her and ate whatever she put in her hands quickly.
After just a few bites, she yawned.
"I'm so sleepy, let's go back to sleep."
Nan Muze nodded, holding her hand and starting to walk back.
Patriarch Lin looked at them with a smile, "Are you two full?"
Xiao Jiang walked over slowly, "I didn't get a good rest during the day, so I got sleepy early. The clan leader continued to eat with everyone. We were really sleepy, so we went back to rest first."
After saying that, he also followed behind the two of them.
Yi Zhou, who was sitting in his original position, burped, "Why are you so drunk? You didn't even have a few drinks, and you're all so drunk..."
I wanted to get up and follow him, but as soon as I stood up, I felt dizzy.
sleepy!
He sat down on the table again and didn't sleep all day and night. Sure enough, he was still too tired...
With this thought, Yizhou threw himself on the table and fell into a deep sleep.
Seeing them fall down and go back, the smile on Patriarch Lin's face deepened.
The people around also put down their wine glasses at this moment, and the originally bustling banquet soon gradually became quiet...
Suddenly, Lai Yi knelt down in front of Patriarch Lin with a plop.
"Chief, these people are innocent. They have not harmed us. Moreover, they helped us catch the poisoner. Can you not harm them? I will let them go at dawn tomorrow..."
Patriarch Lin was a little helpless, "Xiao Yi, I know you have been kind-hearted since you were a child, but this matter is not something we can control. Since they know our secret, it means that this is arranged by God, and this is their fate. "
"No, no, they didn't know our secret originally. They just listened to Lian Lian's words, so they only knew a little bit about it. You see, they didn't mention that matter all night, which means they didn't take it seriously. Let go, why should we..."
"The fact that they didn't mention it can only show that they are smart and know that if they mention it too much, their lives will be in danger. When they get out safely, they will definitely take us away.
Their secrets are spread out. "
Aqin's voice came from the side.
Patriarch Lin nodded, "Ah Qin is sensible. Ah Qin, please go over and keep an eye on them first. Remember to bring a few more people with you. If they make any changes, kill them immediately. If they don't make any changes, wait until we give it to the Dragon King." After the sacrifice is over, come back and think about how to deal with them."
Aqin nodded obediently, "Okay."
After saying that, she led a few tough men to the backyard.
Lai Yi looked anxious and said, "Aqin, we can't do this! They are our saviors. Everyone, I know you don't want to hurt others, please say something, please say something for them..."
The people at the banquet just sat there blankly, the children looked confused, and the adults were minding their own food, and no one dared to care about this matter.
Lai Yi's heart was pounding, "You can't be like this, someone saved us..."
"Okay Xiaoyi, I know you feel uncomfortable, but all of this is God's arrangement. For example, we let Lian Lian escape, which led to her poisoning us. If our sacrifice is successful, such a thing will be It won’t happen. This is God’s punishment for us. If we let these people go today, have you ever thought about what the consequences will be in the future?”
At this point, Patriarch Lin sighed, "Everything is causal. They found out our secret is the cause, and being punished by the gods is the result. We just helped the gods punish them. What crime is there? Woolen cloth?"
"Chief, when will you wake up? There is nothing in this world..."
"Shut up! If you dare to say another word, I will sacrifice you as well!"
Patriarch Lin said with a gloomy face: "You should be glad that you were originally the one to be sacrificed tonight. It was Lian Lian's appearance that changed everything. We will only sacrifice her tonight, but the premise is that you have to be good. "
After hearing this, Lai Yi finally closed his mouth.
The people around him were silent, some looked distressed, and some had nothing to do with themselves.
It can be seen that everyone is a little afraid of Patriarch Lin, and even if they are unhappy, they dare not say anything to stop him.
A maid came out quickly and said, "Chief, those people have all fallen asleep. It's probably because our medicine has taken effect."
Patriarch Lin sneered, "No matter how high your martial arts skills are, what's the use of your abilities? It's not that they can't evade our medicine, but that young couple is quite capable. They can go back to sleep after taking the medicine, unlike that one who can eat After eating, he lay down."
While speaking, he looked at Yizhou.
Elder Hua next to him sighed, "How about beating these people until they are stunned and throwing them out. As long as they don't remember our secret, it doesn't have to hurt people's lives..."
Patriarch Lin's face changed, "Elder Hua, you are confused. Even if you beat them to amnesia, they will still have their memories restored one day. Only by killing them can we be safe!"
Elder Hua did not speak again. .five
Patriarch Lin continued: "Come here, tie up the man first and throw him into the woodshed, and then bring Lianlian out of the woodshed. The moon is full right now, but it's a good time to offer sacrifices to the Dragon King." After the sacrifice, come back and deal with those people properly."
