The Village Chief's Scheme

Dozens of villagers, old and young, men and women, all holding farming tools or sticks, stood aggressively at the door of Lin Shi's safe house.

Standing at the forefront were the dozen or so young and strong villagers encountered outside the village in the morning.

Wang Liang and another villager were smashing the door with hoes.

However, after a long while of smashing, there were only some dents on the door, with no signs of being smashed open.

"My son! You died so miserably! Why is my life so bitter, sending off the young before the old!"

Aunt Li, supported by Li Cuicui, wailed in the crowd.

"We must tear down this door today and avenge Qiangzi!!"

"We must make that kid pay with his life!"

"Avenge Qiangzi!!"

The angry roars of dozens of villagers echoed in this mountainous area.

Although Li Qiang was not killed by Lin Shi, they dared not provoke the security officer, so they naturally attributed this account to Lin Shi.

For more than a decade, the villagers have smoothly extorted many outsiders, almost never failing, let alone suffering such a great loss.

Not long after the security officer left, the village chief immediately gathered one-third of the villagers to find a place.

The village chief did not take the security officer's warning to heart at all.

I heard that it's already chaotic outside now.

Isn't this saying that people from their village can be more bold in the future, and no one will manage it?

The village chief silently calculated in his heart.

In fact, if Lin Shi hadn't come, Wolong Village would become a small survivor gathering place in the post-apocalyptic world.

The leader is the village chief.

These villagers have been brainwashed by the village chief for many years, united and responsive, as long as they don't confront the authorities head-on, they can get whatever they want in this small place, acting recklessly.

Seeing that the door couldn't be smashed, someone smashed the hoe on the outer wall.

After a loud "clang" sound.

There was only a shallow trace on the wall, and the hoe had curled over.

The person who smashed the wall almost dropped the hoe due to the rebound force, almost hitting the person standing behind.

"Village chief, this thing is too sturdy, we can't smash it open!"

Wang Liang panted.

The village chief thoughtfully stared at Lin Shi's explosion-proof door:

"Keep smashing! I don't believe he will never come out!"

Wang Liang could only continue to smash with another villager.

Just when the villagers thought Lin Shi was going to be a turtle.

The door lock made a "click" sound and opened.

Lin Shi came out of the door, looked at the door that was already uneven on the surface, and a cold light flashed in his eyes:

"What are you doing?"

Finally waiting for Lin Shi to come out in the cold wind, the villagers had been waiting impatiently for a long time.

A middle-aged villager in his forties hadn't waited for the village chief's instructions and had already taken a few steps forward, walking in front of Lin Shi.

Pointing at Lin Shi's nose and scolding:

"You dare to ask what to do?! Pay your debts, pay with your life! You..."

Before the villager could finish speaking, Lin Shi, looking at the finger in front of him, frowned slightly, grabbed this finger and forcefully twisted it.

"Ah!!!"

The crisp sound of the finger breaking and the villager's scream rang out at the same time, and the middle-aged villager was so painful that his face turned white.

Lin Shi let go of his finger and kicked the middle-aged villager in the abdomen, kicking the noise away, and the other villagers hurriedly dodged.

The middle-aged villager who fell to the ground was in pain, covering his stomach, and couldn't even stand up.

Lin Shi's gaze swept over dozens of villagers:

"If you want to talk, talk properly, I hate people pointing at me with their fingers."

The villagers were frightened by Lin Shi's ruthlessness.

However, they are not good people either, and soon their eyes showed a fierce light again.

The village head stepped forward and said:

"Young man, you were the one who started this, and hitting someone can lead to imprisonment."

Lin Shi felt as if he had heard a particularly funny joke.

No wonder there's a saying on the internet that some people are like this:

When you reason with them, they act like thugs.

When you act like thugs, they reason with you.

Seeing Lin Shi didn't speak, the village head thought he was intimidated.

He rolled his eyes and said:

"You're so young, having a criminal record could affect your future for life."

The village head looked as if he was considering Lin Shi's interests.

Seeing Lin Shi didn't argue, he continued:

"We can avoid reporting to the police, as long as you compensate for the losses of our village, and the matter with Qiangzi will be settled, how about that?"

"It can't be settled! Kill him! Kill him to pay for my son's life! That's the only heir of the old Li family!"

Upon hearing the village head's words, Aunt Li became emotionally agitated, crying and shouting.

The village head gave a signal to the people behind, and immediately someone gagged Aunt Li.

"How about it? Would you like to consider it?" The village head rubbed his hands, his gaze drifting towards the safe house behind Lin Shi.

He was more aware than the ignorant villagers that the outside world was in chaos, with power outages, cars unable to start, and snow in June.

If these situations worsened, it might turn into the end of the world.

He had to plan for himself.

It must be said that the village head of Wolong Village, who could lead the whole village to "get rich," was somewhat intelligent.

Lin Shi looked at the village head with a smirk and asked:

"You want me to pay compensation?"

A sly calculation flashed in the village head's eyes, and he smiled:

"Money, just a token amount, we don't want much, just give us the house behind you, and that's enough."

Now the ATMs are broken, and banks are packed with people.

How could the village head not know that money can't be withdrawn now?

What he wanted was a place to settle down before the chaos.

Lin Shi's eyes became colder, realizing they were after his safe house.

They really had the nerve to think so!

He immediately turned cold and said:

"Get out of here!"

The village head's smile froze, and anger rose in his eyes:

"Young man, you should think it over.

If it weren't for two meddlesome security guards this morning, you would have been killed by Qiangzi!"

The implication was that Lin Shi was lucky to escape this morning.

The other villagers also thought so in their hearts.

They were many and strong, even if Lin Shi was strong, but who among them wasn't used to doing heavy work every day?

There's a saying, no matter how good your martial arts are, you still fear a kitchen knife.

This morning they saw with their own eyes that Lin Shi was almost killed by Li Qiang.

"You don't know yet, right? The outside world is already in chaos.

Even if a murder happens, just throw the body away, and no one will investigate.

I advise you to think carefully, is your own life important, or some worldly possessions more important!"

The village head narrowed his eyes, this sentence was a blatant threat.

The other villagers immediately picked up their weapons, showing a fierce and eager look in cooperation with the village head.

"Tsk!"

Lin Shi sneered, these people thought that being many could treat him as a soft persimmon.

But they didn't know that if it weren't for the troops in Sha City appearing now, Lin Shi would have killed them without hesitation.

He didn't kill them, but they were still eager to die, then he wouldn't be soft-hearted.

"Old thing, if you want my things, take them from my corpse.

Don't waste any more words."

"Ungrateful!"
