It doesn't matter if your souls are scattered, as long as you die.

When Yun Li returned, the brigade leader had already asked the villagers to help carry the coffin to the cowshed, and some people were cleaning up Old Nie's body.

As for those few people whose kneecaps were shattered, no one dared to treat them, and they were left to wail in pain.

Seeing Yun Li return, the captain carefully approached her, bowing very low to match her height. "Um, where would be a good place to lay the body to rest?"

Yun Li glanced at Old Master Nie, who was lying on the bed and had almost finished getting ready, and asked, "Are you going to wear mourning clothes for him?"

The captain was stunned for a moment, then shook his head repeatedly, "This, this won't do, absolutely not."

Some things can be compromised, some things cannot.

"Why are you keeping the coffin there? Hurry up and pack up. Bury him before noon."

Yun Li's gaze swept over the family whose kneecaps were shattered. "Get them out of here, they're so noisy."

When Yun Li looked over, the whole family was terrified. After hearing her impatient words, they were so happy they almost jumped on one foot.

The brigade leader was also very happy. Although the family was despicable, they were still villagers, and it was still quite sad that they were killed.

Now that they've taken him away, that's probably the end of it; at least his life is saved.

"You guys, carry them home."

Several young men each grabbed one of the boys and started walking. One of them, who was close to the boy, didn't see him and mustered up the courage to ask, "Where did Huizi go?"

The captain scanned the area but didn't see anyone, so he looked at Yun Li, who immediately guessed who Hui Zi was referring to.

"He injured his foot and was sitting on the mountain path over there."

Upon hearing this, the person who had just asked the question quickly ran towards the mountain path.

The funeral was simple, but the grave was very large, and even the surrounding trees were cleared away.

Yun Li was satisfied. Although no one was wearing mourning clothes, the old man could finally rest in peace.

Perhaps he doesn't like to be buried here. When you meet his children in the future, tell them that if they have the means, they should move his grave.

The captain stood behind Yun Li, his back bent low, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Captain, Old Master Nie was tortured to death by you. Don't forget to come and burn some paper money every year on his death anniversary."

"Keep an eye on that family too, make sure they don't retaliate and destroy the grave. I'll come back to check on them when I have time."

"And don't even think about destroying the body and leaving a grave mound to deceive me."

Yun Li turned around and leaned closer, his deep eyes staring straight at the captain. "I have a way of identifying anyone, including those who have turned to ashes."

There was an element of boasting in her words, but Yun Li said it on purpose. She was worried that since they couldn't get revenge on her for what happened today, they would take revenge on the already buried dead.

The captain was shocked. He could recognize this even if it were turned to ashes. Was this still a human?

No, it definitely wasn't a person.

This is God.

The captain immediately prostrated himself on the ground, a sudden action that made Yun Li frown, and then he stepped aside.

With this gesture, he knelt and bowed directly towards Elder Nie's grave.

Seeing this, the other villagers also quickly knelt down and bowed towards Old Nie's grave.

That evening, Yun Li left the village, but she didn't go far; she went to the next village.

He waited behind a large tree not far from the house where the suspected kidnapper lived.

She had been observing the family, and by midnight, none of the other family members had returned; only the old man remained the entire time.

It was late at night, and Yun Li went into the space to rest.

The next morning, Yun Li ate breakfast, fed the three dogs, and left the space.

Using his spiritual power, he saw that there was no one in the house. Looking around, he saw an old man washing clothes by the ditch.

The ditch is not far from the old man's house. The width of the ditch is very narrow at both ends, but it is very wide in the area where clothes are washed.

It is known that this place was deliberately widened and deepened, probably to make it easier for her to wash things.

There weren't many clothes, just three pieces, all of which belonged to the elderly person.

The old man finished washing quickly, stood up with his cane, rubbed his lower back, and then carried the washed clothes home.

Back home, I didn't rest. After hanging up the clothes, I prepared pig feed for the pigs.

After that, I carried a basket on my back and went to dig for wild vegetables.

Yun Li glanced at the kitchen and saw no signs of a fire, so she figured the old man hadn't eaten breakfast.

Yun Li pretended to be a child playing and approached an old man who was digging for wild vegetables.

The old man smiled kindly when he saw Yun Li. "You look unfamiliar, young man. Are you from the next village?"

Yun Li squatted down beside her and picked at the wild vegetables on the ground with her hands. "Well, I'm here to visit relatives in the next village."

When the old woman saw her picking wild vegetables with her fingers, she quickly stopped her, saying, "Don't pick them, you'll get mud under your fingernails and hurt your hands. If you want to eat wild vegetables, Grandma will dig some for you."

Yun Li patted the mud off his hands, then squatted down beside her, watching her dig for wild vegetables while chatting casually and subtly inquiring about her whereabouts.

"Grandma, why don't you let your children go out to dig for wild vegetables? My cousins ​​go out to dig for wild vegetables every day."

The old woman replied with a smile, "My family isn't very large; we don't have any children."

"Then adults can also dig for wild vegetables. Grandma is getting old and should stay home and enjoy her retirement."

Hearing this, the old woman smiled and glanced at Yun Li, "They have their own things to do. Grandma can do the digging for wild vegetables."

"Are you working in the fields?"

Grandma smiled but didn't answer, and Yunli didn't press further. She somehow obtained a bamboo strip and helped dig for wild vegetables.

While the old woman wasn't looking, she would toss handfuls into the bamboo basket, and soon the basket was half full.

The old woman was extremely surprised; she had dug up so much!

Looking at Yun Li, who was still huffing and puffing as she dug for wild vegetables, he thought to himself, "She must have dug all of these."

But why are there so many wild vegetables in this area?

Thinking about it, there must be some, otherwise how could there be so many? They couldn't have just appeared out of thin air.

"Child, stop digging, that's enough. Go home with Grandma, and Grandma will pack some things for you to take back with you."

Yun Li hummed in agreement, flicked the bamboo strip, clapped his hands, and followed the old man home.

When she got home, the old lady poured Yunli a glass of water. She noticed that there was sugar in the water, and that this was all the sugar in the container, which had been washed with hot water.

Yun Li didn't stand on ceremony and gulped it down. After finishing, she said to the old man, "It's so sweet and delicious."

The old man patted her head, found a broken bamboo basket under the eaves behind the house, pulled up some grass to cover the damaged parts, and then filled the basket with more than half wild vegetables.

She placed the large basket filled with wild vegetables in front of Yunli, saying, "Grandma is alone at her house these days and can't eat too much. You should have a lot of relatives and family members, so please take all of these back with you."

Yun Li hummed in agreement, said thank you again, and then left with her bamboo basket on her back.

Now, after more than a year, Yunli looks like a normal five-year-old child. In the countryside, five-year-olds are already running all over the mountains.

The old man didn't offer to take her back.
