Chapter 47: Grace
Before practicing, the two of them carefully checked the surroundings to make sure there was no danger, so they sat cross-legged, closed their eyes, and concentrated on replenishing their physical strength and skills.
After a while, although they were concentrating, they still heard noisy voices. Yin Ruchen subconsciously reacted to whether there was a new danger, so she opened her eyes. This time she opened her eyes, she found that many villagers were standing not far from her and Yan Moying, so she said softly: "Moying, look..."
Yan Moying also opened his eyes, very surprised.
As soon as the two stood up, the villagers rushed towards them excitedly. An old man rushed to them regardless of everything, knelt down on the ground with a plop, and said, "Thank you, two great benefactors! I didn't dare to disturb you when you were practicing just now, and now I can finally thank you!", and was about to kowtow.
Yin Ruchen and Yan Moying immediately supported the old man to stop him from kowtowing.
"Senior, please don't be like this..." Yin Ruchen said quickly.
"Senior, this is not possible..." Yan Moying said as he and Yin Ruchen helped the old man up.
As soon as they helped the old man up, they saw that the villagers had all knelt down and shouted, "Thank you very much for saving us!" "Thank you, benefactor!" "Thank you both for your kindness!" "I will never forget your kindness!" The voices came one after another.
Yin Ruchen and Yan Moying were suddenly at a loss.
Yan Moying said: "Everyone, get up quickly!"
"Let's all stand up and tell us what happened..." Yin Ruchen said.
The villagers still didn't get up, and the old man was about to kneel down again.
Yin Ruchen and Yan Moying had no choice but to stop the old man from kneeling and kneel down to return the greeting. Everyone panicked and shouted, "Hurry up, two benefactors!"
"If everyone gets up, we'll get up too!" Yan Moying said.
So everyone had to stand up.
Yin Ruchen, Yan Moying and the old man walked among the villagers.
At this time, the old man said: "The two benefactors have wiped out the Leopard Wolf Village, and we can finally see the light of day again!"
"Yes, many people from our Xihan Village died in Leopard Wolf Village!" said a young man.
"At that time, they captured people from our village to dig a tunnel. Many people died of exhaustion, starvation, or were beaten to death. After the tunnel was built, they wanted to completely block the territory. Anyone who crossed the boundary never came back. In fact, where is the 'boundary'? There is not even a mark. They wanted to arrest people, and they wanted to say that whoever crossed the boundary would be considered as having crossed the boundary!" said a tall middle-aged man angrily.
"The five bearded ghosts came to our village and extorted money. If we didn't pay, they would beat us to death and drag us away..."
"They are as cruel as they can be. They even dug out the hearts of people. The evil spirit said that they wanted to use it to train their village leader..."
The villagers talked one after another, leaving Yin Ruchen and Yan Moying dumbfounded. Although they felt that the people in Leopard Wolf Village were very evil, they both felt uneasy after eliminating them, especially because they felt that their subordinates were somewhat innocent. After hearing what the villagers said, they felt relieved, because after all, this was equivalent to saving many people.
The villagers invited the two to visit the village. Yan Moying said, "Thank you for your kindness! But we have to hurry on our way. We don't know how long it will take to get to the other side of the mountain, so..."
