Chapter 1289 This Village is Not Simple
Mengyu let Xiao Tao, Xiao Li, Da Bai, Da Hei, Little White, and the others move freely while she entered the village. Her Divine Sense quickly enveloped the entire mountain village.
Because she lived here for six years in her past life, Mengyu was familiar with every family in the village: the shrewd leader who turned a blind eye; the Zhong couple who adopted Congtong but often abused him and Gougou; the Zhou Brothers who bought her as a Shared Wife...
In her previous life, Mengyu only knew that everyone in this village practiced martial arts and understood herbal medicine. She thought this was because there were few households and they needed to practice martial arts to protect themselves.
But now, the more she looked, the more she felt this village was a bit mysterious.
Previously, she knew the villagers practiced martial arts, but modern martial arts and ancient martial arts cultivation are two different things. Yet, Mengyu found that several people in this village were third and fourth level Martial Artists! She even discovered a Level 8 Martial Artist.
This is already a High-level Martial Artist!
Generally, such a small mountain village is mostly comprised of a single family, but in this village, the surnames of the people are all different.
Moreover, before she was sold into the village last summer, the village wives were all bought in, and once in, they had no freedom.
The Human Trafficking Group even used this place as a base until due to her, Gu Dongxing came in and eradicated it...
Mixed surnames, martial arts practice, disregard for the law, this village is definitely unusual!
Suddenly, Mengyu discovered Pi Yuhua, who was trafficked along with her, in a household! At this moment, Pi Yuhua was cooking for the whole family.
She remembered asking Gu Dongxing about Pi Yuhua and Jiang Haiyan, who were trafficked with her. Gu Dongxing assured her that both had been rescued.
But why is Pi Yuhua still here? Did she come on her own, or was she trafficked again?
Given Pi Yuhua’s intellect, she shouldn’t fall into the same place twice.
Mengyu recalled that in the past life, Pi Yuhua fell to her death in the mountains. At that time, she merely stumbled, and because her hands were tied, she couldn’t grab a tree or anything else, and so fell to her death.
In this life, after rebirth, Mengyu managed to have the human traffickers untie the ropes from the three of them.
However, when she jumped off the cliff seeking survival, Pi Yuhua was also prepared to jump off and seek death. It was only because Mengyu jumped that Pi Yuhua was restrained and couldn’t jump.
In other words, in her past life, Pi Yuhua also sought death, and in this life, sought it again but did not succeed due to Mengyu’s intervention.
Mengyu initially thought Pi Yuhua sought death out of fear for her future life after being sold, but Pi Yuhua, unlike herself, was not reborn and therefore should not know Tiger Valley’s survival conditions. So, why did she seek death?
And, clearly rescued, why did she return to Tiger Valley?
This made Mengyu suspect that being sold was not Pi Yuhua’s reason for seeking death. Her choice to return to Tiger Valley after being rescued suggests that Tiger Valley is better than her original home, compelling her to prefer it over her home.
Perhaps, her original home was the source of her death wish?
Mengyu looked again at Pi Yuhua cooking, unable to see any sign of coercion on her face, but rather some joy?
Mengyu sighed. Perhaps, for Pi Yuhua, this cannibalistic Tiger Valley is instead a place to settle down.
