The villagers were quite perplexed by Shitou's actions.
"Yeah, Shitou, why did you poison everyone?"
"What did we ever do to offend you?"
"What kind of deep-seated grudge do you have?"
"You truly have no conscience, isn't this harming our village? What are we supposed to do if the government office comes to slaughter the village?"
"..."
"..."
Facing the villagers' questioning, Shitou remained silent, refusing to reveal why he poisoned them.
Shitou's demeanor made the Village Chief heartbroken, as he coldly spoke, "Shitou, since this is the case, you shall pay with your life, prepare for cremation."
"Village Chief, no, I don't want to die, I don't want to die, I'll never dare again, spare me."
Xiaoxiao was speechless, wondering just how backward this village was, resorting frequently to vigilante justice when something happened. Cremation seemed like something they did often.
Over at Yang Family Village, they never heard of such things happening in Stone Village.
