Chapter 6 - What Else Do You Have to Say For Yourself? (2)
Zang YuFeng gritted her teeth. She wanted to lie through her teeth but Chi YunChen asked Lil' Duck Egg again coldly, “So why did you say you saw my wife walking into the hut with Zhao DaShun? Tell me the truth now!”
The crowd also started noticing that there was more to it and all started helping Chi YunChen in coaxing Lil' Duck Egg, “Duck Egg, why wouldn’t you say it. C’mon. Tell the truth. If not, your tongue will be cut off by the Black and White Impermanence when you go to hell. You will be a mute once your tongue is cut off.”
“Exactly, Lil' Duck Egg, do you want to be a mute?”
Lil' Duck Egg became paler from everything the others were saying to her.
After all, she was just a ten-year-old little girl and one in a small village like this. She hadn’t have a lot of experiences and was very susceptible to intimidation.
After a little prompting from the crowd, she was about to crack.
When Hu YuJiao saw that Lil' Duck Egg was about to crack under the pressure and tell the truth, she quickly bit her lips and said tenderly, “We shouldn’t pressure Lil' Duck Egg anymore. She’s just a child. We wouldn’t want to traumatize her.”
Zang YuFeng liked that a lot and chimed in immediately, “Exactly. I will hold you all accountable if my daughter is traumatized!”
Li CuiHua took a look at Hu YuJiao and said with a smile, “My YuJiao is so kind. She’s always considerate to others. Not like that Su Man-er, threatening a child the way she did!”
Gu ChunMei chimed in as well, “That’s right. YuJiao is such a nice girl. She isn’t one that someone else could measure up to.” As she said that, she gave Su Man-er a look of contempt.
Su Man-er didn’t say anything. She only sneered.
Hu YuJiao, listening to other people's compliments toward her, lowered her head. With a soft and gentle look, she said, “I just don’t want a child to get hurt, that’s all.”
Look how kind she was! She was practically a savior!
Su Man-er took a look at this savior and snickered to herself. With a flick of her wrist, she pushed her open palm toward Lil' Duck Egg and mumbled a silent, “Go!” And with that, an invisible fulu struck Lil' Duck Egg.
Lil' Duck Egg, struck by fulu, started shouting three seconds later.
She stared straight in front of herself in fear and her pupil contracted. “Don’t cut off my tongue! Please don’t cut off my tongue! I will tell the truth! It was YuJiao-jiejie…. It was YuJiao-jiejie who asked me to do that. She gave me five cents to set up YuChen-gege’s wife. I only did that because YuJiao-jiejie asked me to. You need to go to her instead of me!”
Lil' Duck Egg, at the moment, saw two men the height of a house walking toward her.
They were the Black and White Impermanence; except they were only a figment of her imagination.
The fulu that Su Man-er applied to her earlier was a fulu of imagination.
When the fulu was attached to an individual, they would see what they were most afraid of.
Right now, the more fearful thing to Lil' Duck Egg was the Black and White Impermanence, which was why she saw them after the fulu was attached to her.
Lil' Duck Egg’s words silenced the surrounding for a few seconds.
Everybody was stunned, stunned by what Lil' Duck Egg had said.
Chi YunChen was the first to recollect himself.
He looked over coldly at Hu YuJiao and asked her somberly, “You were the one who told her to say that?!”
Hu YuJiao’s heartbeat increased uncontrollably, and she started to panic uncontrollably.
