The Boss Who Transmigrated Went Wild

Chapter 166 The Woman Who Lives in the River 1

At night, the moon was bright and the stars were few. The moon's reflection in the water shattered and then shone again.

The surrounding trees were filled with the chirping of insects and the calls of birds.

now,

Feige lay in the river.

The river submerged her body, leaving only her head above water.

After a while,

Feige swam freely, and she felt very comfortable in the water. Feige had had enough of being in the water.

Once she reached the shore, she soon noticed that her skin started to itch. She jumped back into the river, and the itching quickly subsided.

Feige died speechlessly. Had she become a fish that couldn't live without water?

"Wu Tang, what's going on?"

"Master, this is what happened. In this village, the original owner was an orphan who grew up on the charity of many families."

One day, a Taoist priest suddenly appeared in the village. Upon seeing the original owner of this body, he immediately declared that she was connected to the village's wealth. He said the village was so poor because of her presence; each family had a piece of her fortune, and she was taking a bite from one another. He claimed that if they could just drive her into the river, their village would become rich.

"What kind of logic is this? Is this Taoist priest sick?"

"But that's how people are. When it comes to their own interests, of course no one cares. Besides, she was an orphan, so the villagers drove her into the river."

"Damn it, these people are insane!"

"Who can argue with that? Back then, the original owner was only 5 years old, she didn't understand anything, and she couldn't do anything. What's frustrating is that those villagers would wait on the shore, and as soon as she went up, they would throw her back down."

And so, a month, two months, three months passed, and finally, the original owner stopped struggling and resisting.

"So how did she get through those three months?"

"There were still kind people who secretly brought her food, and the original owner was also very strong, so she survived."

"When those people saw that he wasn't going up, they lowered their guard. When she was hungry, she picked fruit to eat on the bank; when she was thirsty, she drank water from the river. That's how she survived, day by day."

The village was getting better and better, and they began to believe the Taoist priest's words.

A few years later, the Taoist priest came again.

Several more children were abandoned. The original owner tried her best to help them survive, but they all died. The original owner didn't know why.

The original owner lived alone in this river for 18 years.

"That means you're 23 years old now."

"Yes, Master."

How did the original owner die?

She died from a lung infection.

Is there something wrong with this water?

"Um"

What were the original owner's wishes?

"She wanted to know what had happened; she wanted revenge."

"Is there any more?"

"Gone"

"it is good"

Feige spent 3 energy points to get herself ready. Once ashore, she changed into dry clothes and, feeling a bit sleepy, immediately lay down on a large tree nearby and fell asleep.

Daylight broke, and Feige woke up—of course, from hunger.

Feige remembered there was a bowl of dumplings in her spatial storage, so she took it out and shared it with Wutang.

After she finished eating, she prepared to go and take a look around the village.

"Master, why don't we go at night?"

Isn't daytime better?

"So we can get some work done tonight."

"Who said that? It works during the day too."

"Wu Tang, let's go find those people who brought food to the original owner first."

"Yes, Master."

After a while, Feige arrived.

The house was dilapidated and empty; it looked like it hadn't been lived in for many years.

"Wu Tang, are you sure you haven't gone to the wrong place?"

"Master, that's right."

Feige walked further in and found a set of human bones in a corner.

"Looks like he's been dead for a long time."

"Master, let us help her to be laid to rest."

"good "

So, Feige and Wutang took shovels and started digging next to the skeleton.

A hole was quickly dug, and Feige lowered her in and covered her with soil.

Let him rest in peace.

……

Feige came to the second one.

Similarly, they also died.

Feige buried her too.

……

"How many of the Wu Tang servants brought food to the original owner?"

There are 3 more.

Feige found them, and like everyone else, they were all dead, dead at home, uncared for.

Feige buried them.

It's already noon.

"Let's go to the village chief's house."

When Feige arrived at the village chief's house, she found them to be incredibly wealthy, living in a large, brick-and-tile house. Feige even found a chest of gold inside.

"Master, someone's here."

Feige ran up to the roof beam.

A man and a woman came in.

"Master, those five people were all buried, right in their house."

"This is going to be a big problem."

What should the head of the household do?

"Let's go, gather the villagers."

A man and a woman went out, and Feige came down.

"Are these people crazy? They won't let people be buried when they die. It's no wonder there's a conspiracy," Wu Tang complained.

Feige went around the village chief's house and took all the chickens, ducks, geese, cattle, sheep, and pigs, as well as the cured meat, rice, and flour in the kitchen.

In short, not a single thing was left.

Soon, the village chief gathered everyone together.

"Village Chief, what's wrong?"

"Those five dead people were all buried."

"What? Who did this?"

"I don't know, it seems like fate is against our village."

"Yes, things have just started to get better, and I don't want to go back to being poor again."

"I haven't even had a chance to enjoy my money yet."

……

Everyone was talking about this and that, and a long time passed.

"Village chief, what do you suggest we do?"

"We can't go back to being poor again."

"Exactly! We finally escaped poverty and life was getting a little better, and who would be so heartless as to do this?"

……

"Alright, that's why I gathered you all here to talk about this. I still need to think about what to do. You may all leave now."

Everyone went back reluctantly.

The village chief returned home to find everything gone. He ran to the foot of the bed to look for his gold, but it was nowhere to be found. The village chief was furious.

Who stole my things?

"Honey, something terrible has happened!"

The woman rushed in and collided with the man; both of them saw stars.

After a while, I felt a little better.

Why are you acting so recklessly?

"Honey, something terrible has happened! All our livestock have disappeared!"

"What"

The village chief ran out and wandered around.

“How could this happen? How could this happen?”

"Honey, what should we do?"

"To shut up"

The village chief came into the house and plopped down on the floor.
