“In recent years, the mortality rate of the villagers has increased substantially due to illness,” Chi Jiao said indifferently. “This has something to do with the incompetence of the witch doctor. The Evil Deity couldn’t bear to watch anymore, so he summoned me to save you.”
Chi Jiao suppressed the urge to laugh after her little speech.
She felt that she looked rather comical with her serious expression.
She wanted to play with these people and see their reactions.
Their faith and obsession with the Evil Deity were deeply set within their blood and bones.
Therefore, if she wanted to escape successfully, she had to make use of their blind faith.
Pei Yao turned her head and glanced at Chi Jiao. Seeing that she could still maintain a serious expression when spouting nonsense, the corners of her lips curled up slightly.
With Jiaojiao around, she really wasn’t anxious at all.
She felt that Jiaojiao’s greatest strength was her brain.
Having a really smart mind was sometimes more useful than any supernatural power.
The village chief frowned.
Chi Jiao was right.
The number of people in their village decreased year by year. Many of them died young after getting sick.
People in their village usually looked for witch doctors to treat their illnesses, but when the previous witch doctor was still in power, such a situation had never happened in the village.
After the current witch doctor took over, the death rate in their village increased.
“Nonsense!” The witch doctor was unhappy at Chi Jiao’s slander. “I’m a witch doctor and the messenger of the Evil Deity. Aren’t you afraid of retribution for insulting me?”
“Grandpa, aren’t you afraid of retribution for harming others?” Chi Jiao sneered at him. “Where did you go two days ago when you left the village?”
The witch doctor did not expect Chi Jiao to ask this question. Panic flashed across his eyes.
“I… I went to the nearby market to buy some things. Why are you asking this?” The witch doctor suddenly remembered that the young woman in front of him had the ability to foresee the future. He couldn’t help panicking.
Not possible, right?
She couldn’t possibly know what he was doing, right?
He didn’t tell anyone that he had gone to a nearby hospital to seek treatment.
The village chief looked at the witch doctor suspiciously and then at Chi Jiao. “Little girl, do you know why the witch doctor left the village?”
In fact, he had always been suspicious of what the witch doctor did when he left the village.
The witch doctor claimed that he went to the market to buy things. He had never believed him.
This was because the witch doctor had to report to him if he wanted to leave the village.
The witch doctor had asked to be away for a week.
The village chief couldn’t understand why the witch doctor needed a whole week if he was just going to the market to buy things. Three days would have been enough.
However, the witch doctor had applied for a full week.
He had expressed his doubts then.
However, the witch doctor brought up his status as the messenger of the Evil Deity. He said that if the village chief doubted him, it was the equivalent of doubting the Evil Deity.
The village chief couldn’t say anything to that and so gave his permission.
From the looks of it, there was indeed something fishy going on during the few days when the witch doctor was away from the village.
Chi Jiao stepped forward and approached the witch doctor.
The witch doctor saw that she was still holding an axe and his scalp went numb. He instinctively swallowed and took a step back.
“What… what are you trying to do? I’m warning you, you better not be violent here, or the villagers will not let you off..” The witch doctor tried his best to control the uneasiness in his heart, but his voice still trembled.
