Chapter 591: The Past
Just like that, Huang Ying and Little Rice Ball began to follow them.
Now she just needed to find the ancestral hallâs secret. To be honest, Qin Yi had conflicting feelings toward Gu Cheng. If one said that he was a good man, then he definitely wasnât the one who kept that thing in the ancestral hall.
But she couldnât call him a bad person either. She had seen the hurt, apologies, and concern in Gu Chengâs eyes during the previous battle.
âHuang Ying, what kind of person do you think the village chief is?â Qin Yiâs slender hand knocked on the table.
Huang Ying had spent the longest time in this village, and she understood Gu Cheng better than then.
âXiao Qi, are you referring to the village chief? I donât think heâs a good guy. He gives me a weird feeling,â Ze Ning hurriedly said.
He didnât know why, but he suddenly didnât like Huang Ying and her brother anymore. He felt that as soon as they came, Xiao Qiâs attention was no longer on him.
A jealous zombie was very adorable. He didnât know what to do, so he had to quickly speak up.
After Ze Ning spoke, he looked at Qin Yi pitifully and blinked. His blood-colored cat eyes and clean white face were extremely handsome.
He gave a look that said, âIâm so sad that you donât believe meâ.
Huang Ying was stunned. She didnât know why but she wasnât hurt or embarrassed by the youthâs âprovocation.â Instead, she thought that this youth was quite cute, ah.
A cuteness that had sprouted into peopleâs hearts.
Qin Yi held her forehead, but still patiently explained, âItâs not that I donât believe you, but Huang Yingâs lived here for a long time, so she knows better.â
Qin Yi knew that Ze Ning didnât have any ill intention. This zombie youth was different from other zombiesâhe was simple, and even a little gentle.
âOh, alright.â
Seeing that Qin Yi wanted to talk about something important, Ze Ning stopped making a fuss and went to eat some snacks.
âBig brother, the village chief is very good, ah. Everyone will go to the village chief for help and he will do what he can. Also, he often took care of us orphans,â Huang Ying answered truthfully.
The village chief was really very nice. Without him, this village wouldnât have survived so many years.
âBut the village chief is weird at times,â Little Rice Ball said all of a sudden. âHe likes to stay in the ancestral hall and will sometimes stay inside for an entire day. Furthermore, he never lets us go near the ancestral hall.â
Children have the sharpest senses; Little Rice Ball had seen the village chief going to the ancestral hall in the middle of the night more than once, and he always felt that something was amiss.
Qin Yi furrowed her brows, âWhatâs that curse in the village?â
âI know, I know this!â Little Rice Ball rushed to answer. The little guy knew when to let himself shine. âThose who were punished and had to kneel in the ancestral hall would eventually die of an illness.â
âBut I think this curse is just used to deceive three-year-olds. There were a few people who died, but there were quite a number of people who knelt in the ancestral hall these last few years and they survived,â Huang Ying added.
Qin Yiâs phoenix eyes flashed, and the corners of her lips rose slightly, âDoes he have any family?â
Qin Yi had a feeling that the thing in the ancestral hall was very important to Gu Cheng⊠So important that he would kill people for it.
âFamily?â Huang Ying frowned, suddenly recalling, âHe does. The village chief initially had a little granddaughter. If she was still alive, she would be around the same age as Little Rice Ball. But when she came to the village, she was killed by a zombie.â
