The Female Officer Became a Farmer After Getting Reborn

Li Yu slept in the haystack for an hour and then woke up. He came out of the kitchen and lit a torch and walked towards the thatched house in the village.

The vegetable garden behind Zhuangzi is full of various vegetables. Along the field path, when arriving at the first thatched house, Li Yu pushed open the fence door and found that there were more than a dozen piglets raised in the thatched house, and more than a dozen more. There is a half-grown pig, and a group of chickens and ducks are kept in a thatched house next to it.

Li Yu lit a torch and walked to the thatched house at the back. When he got closer, he saw a row of three thatched houses. The vegetable garden in front of the door was empty. He opened the fence door and walked in. Dried vegetables were hung under the eaves. The door was locked, and the kitchen door was ajar. Li Yu pulled out the hairpin, fiddled with it a few times, and unlocked it.

I opened the door and walked into the main room. When I walked to the door on the right hand side, I saw a few pairs of dull eyes. It turned out that there were five skeletal women sitting on the wooden bed in the room, looking at me blankly.

Li Yu walked into the room and looked at them and said softly: "Don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person. I want to ask who you are and why you are locked up here?"

The older woman looked at Li Yu and said, "We are from Liangjia Village. We have been imprisoned here for more than ten years."

Didn’t the gangster named Dashi say that no one in Liangjia Village was here? The women from Liangjiacun were imprisoned here.

Li Yu looked at them in surprise, "You are all from Liangjia Village. Have the old people, children and men in the village been killed and silenced by the people in Zhuangzi?"

At this time, two more women walked into the room on the left, and two girls in their late teens came over. The four of them looked at Li Yu in surprise.

The older woman glanced at them and then said: "There are more than thirty families in our village. They were living well. Just after midnight on New Year's Eve fifteen years ago, a group of people rushed in. In the village, all the men, old people, and children in the village were killed, leaving only women in their teens and twenties."

Li Yu didn't expect that such a tragedy would happen less than a day's journey from Kyoto. What did the local magistrate do? Is it true that the closer you get to the foot of Lingshan Mountain, the more monsters there are?

Looking at the woman who spoke again, I saw that her eyes were empty and her expression was dull. She seemed to be talking about other people's affairs when she talked about this. Some of the other women had expressionless faces, some had their heads lowered and remained silent, crying silently. dripping, all of them have sallow complexions and shabby clothes.

The woman's hollow voice spoke again, "There used to be more than forty of us, but now there are less than twenty-six of us. Some committed suicide due to the humiliation, and some were tortured to death."

"During the day, we were chained like animals, weaving, feeding the animals, and working in the fields. At night, they locked us in the house and took turns to abuse us."

The sound of crying started, and Li Yu turned around to see two young girls squatting on the ground, crying sadly and desperately.

The crying was heartbreaking and unbearable. Li Yu's eyes were red. A bunch of beasts. How come no one discovered this heinous thing after so many years?

"Where are your relatives and natal family? Has no one come to visit you or look for you for so many years?"

The woman shook her head and continued: "We also escaped at first, wanting to report to the police and find relatives for help. Those who escaped were found and captured before they could reach the village entrance, and were tortured to death by them. .”

The woman gritted her teeth and roared, "Those thieves wanted us to watch them die slowly. Later, everyone stopped running away. Those who couldn't bear it went to seek death. Those who were alive just wanted to take revenge."

"As time went by, some thieves who came to Kuaihui leaked the news, saying that people outside only knew that there was a plague in Liangjia Village and didn't understand what was going on."

The woman looked at Li Yu and actually smiled, "Plague! How many people will die if you get it? Who dares to come and see what's going on! For so many years, no one from her mother's family or relatives has ever come. You’ve seen us, since a bunch of thieves were gone years ago, we’ve been living a little easier.”

After the woman's talk, everyone thought about the New Year's Eve, when all the workers who worked outside came home early, and everyone happily prepared for the New Year at home.

On the New Year's Eve, the children all had a delicious meal, hugging their newly made clothes and keeping watch on the New Year's Eve. Before going to bed, they planned to go to whose house they would wear their new clothes to pay New Year's greetings the next morning, and were still discussing whose house would prepare the New Year's greetings. There were a lot of fried goods, and I fell asleep while talking.

When the old man stayed up late, he also went to sleep separately. It was rare all year round that he didn't have to think about getting up early to work the next morning. The men sat at the table, drank and bragged, and rarely got drunk. They collapsed on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.

No one could have imagined that a group of thieves dressed in black and carrying long knives broke into the village in the middle of the night, raised butcher knives and killed young men, old people and children, leaving only more than forty young women.

On New Year's Eve, who would have thought that such a disaster would come from the sky. Xiangle's village became a slaughterhouse for thieves, his home suddenly became a cemetery where his family members were buried, and women were bullied and raped in their own homes.

Thinking of those relatives and fellow villagers who died tragically, and the humiliation they had suffered over the years, the women covered their faces and let out sobs.

Several women cried and kowtowed to Li Yu, "Madam, please leave quickly! Please help us take a letter to Kyoto and tell the people there about us. We will work for you in the next life."

Li Yu took a step forward, helped them up and said, "Don't worry, no one will come to torture you in the future. I have killed all the remaining thieves and left two to be taken back to the Yamen for interrogation."

"What did you say..." the woman trembled.

The women in the room all looked at Li Yu in surprise, unable to imagine that a beautiful woman dared to kill someone, and even killed a dozen tough men.

Seeing that they were all stunned, Li Yu looked at them and said: "I am a first-class lady conferred by your majesty today, and I was also kidnapped here by them. If you don't believe it, you can go to Zhuangzi with me and have a look. Human corpses are still placed in Zhuangzi."

The woman who just spoke looked at Li Yu excitedly, "Are you really a first-class lady?"

Li Yu solemnly raised his hands and swore: "If there is any deception, the sky will strike with thunder!"

The woman suddenly came to life, hugged the woman next to her, and cried: "Little sister, there is hope for our revenge, my God! You finally opened your eyes and saw the hundreds of people in our Liangjia Village." It’s a grievance.”

The other women also cried and hugged each other, and some kowtowed to Li Yu to thank him.

Li Yu helped them up and looked at them gently, "My surname is Li and my first name is Yu. What are your names?"

The woman who just told her story said to Li Yu, "Madam, my name is Alian," and pointed to the long-faced woman beside her, "Her name is Hongmei, she is my sister-in-law."
