However, few dared to kill, so only one was knocked unconscious. The stick hit the others, but the refugees only felt a tinge.

“Tie them up and throw them into the ancestral hall. We’ll hand them over to the village constable tomorrow,” the village chief said with a sigh of relief.

“Village chief, does it mean my father’s death will be in vain?” The old man’s son stood up and asked.

“So why don’t you kill them and then get put in jail?” The village chief asked.

“Enough. Throw them into the ancestral hall. They won’t have a good ending anyway.” The village chief turned around and ordered.

However, after throwing the people into the ancestral hall, the village chief did not leave. Instead, he took a few people to hide behind the back window. He wanted to hear who they were or what their purpose was.

Gu Chengrui was worried too. He asked Zhou Ying for a pack of knockout powder and followed them.

They eavesdropped on the conversation. After listening to the refugees’ conversation, they were so scared that they started trembling.

These people were refugees and had fled their homes since last spring.

They had reached the south, but a flood occurred before settling down.

Thus, they had to run back.

However, they encountered a snowstorm.

They had run out of food for a long time. At first, they had to eat tree bark and leaves, and when they couldn’t stand the hunger anymore, they ate their offspring.

They were now living on human flesh.

They had come here because many refugees were heading toward Mount Qi, the tallest mountain here. Naturally, this group of cannibals followed suit, and at the same time, they wanted to get some food in advance.

After all, no one could stand eating only meat, not to mention human flesh.

“No,” someone muttered softly. “These people can’t be left alive. It’s too dangerous.”

“We’ll have to ask for Constable Tian’s opinion.

“We must keep a close eye on these people. If one of them can join their dislocated legs and escape, I’m afraid our village will never have a peaceful day ever.” The village chief spoke in a low voice.

“That’s easy.” Gu Chengrui reassured them as he took out the knockout powder. He then blew it into the ancestral hall through the window.

“Ancestors, please don’t blame me. I have no other choice.” The village chief quickly kowtowed twice and muttered softly.

Not only did the people in the Ancestral Hall know how to fix their bones, but they also knew that there would be people guarding them, so they deliberately explained their origins.

First, these refugees wanted to scare the villagers so that it would be easier for them to escape later.

The other reason was to buy time for them to recover as soon as possible.

Unfortunately, they did not expect Gu Chengrui to be so despicable as to use knockout powder. They all fainted before they could even escape.

After ensuring everyone in the house was unconscious, the village chief and his group walked in. They saw that all the ropes tying the refugees had been cut, and their feet were fixed.

“It seems these people are quite capable,” Gu Chengrui said. “Search them. Put away the blades and other things before tying them back up.”

Everyone immediately got to work when they heard this. Not only did they find a lot of small tools, but they also found iron wires, embroidery needles, picking keys, and so on.

“It seems like these people aren’t out for blood,” the village chief said.

“Indeed, these skills, especially lock-picking, can’t be learned in a short time.” Gu Chengrui nodded in agreement.

“By the way, Chengrui, when will they wake up?”

“I’m not sure, but let’s make sure they sleep a little longer. 1’11 just give them

some more knockout powder..”
