Chapter 799: Take that woman
Xiao Yu and the rest of the women were hiding behind the large mountain which was at the foot of the Big Mountain village, they were all busy running away from the villagers of the Big Mountain Village and did not have time to see what Xiao Yu and Tan Mo did, they all were looking at the woman who was caught getting beaten up but neither of them made a move to save that woman.
Qi Qing looked at the scene in front of her and her expression was really unsightly, but she was not upset because one of the women of their village was almost killed by the villagers of the Big Mountain Village, she was upset because they lost that child!
They spent so much time and effort in snatching that child from the villagers of the Big Mountain village only for that woman to mess up at the end moment, if she knew that the woman was this useless, she would have carried that child in her arms!
Unlike the other women who came to bring that child to their village because they were trying to save their kids, Qi Qing and Yang Jie truly liked eating the flesh of the young mers and daughters.
At first, they found it too gamy but as they continued to eat it, the flesh started to grow on them and now they look forward to eating human flesh every now and then, with the child being lost, they were truly upset.
Now what were they supposed to do?
" Whose kid is next?" Yang Jie asked as she turned to look at the woman behind her while licking her lips with a green glint in her eyes. She was no longer going to wait, if they could not find a kid from other villages then they were going to snatch a kid from their own village!
When the women who were following Yang Jie heard her words, they all turned frightened as they glanced at Tan
Mo.
Currently, their kids were still doing good only Tan Mo's daughter was sick enough to be killed when Tan Mo saw that the women were looking at her, she gritted her teeth so hard that she almost cracked them into bits.
Her family's little Yi caught the flu because she was trying to save the ones who fell into the flood, she was only ten but she was willing to save those who were in trouble. Because of her daughter most of the kids in the village were alive and had a chance to fight for survival, if Tan Yi had left those kids in the flood water and had not saved them what would these people would have done?
Tan Mo was furious, no she was livid. She wished she could kill these women with her bare hands, especially Qi Qing and Yang Jie. She knew that these two women were not eating human flesh because they were starving, no —— though they looked like they were sick and malnourished, they looked like this even before the flood happened.
The Qi and the Yang families were the poorest families of their village and thus this epidemic was more of an opportunity for them to eat as much as they wanted to fill their stomachs rather then them suffering along with the villagers!
Qi Qing and Yang Jie were eating human flesh because they truly liked eating it and loved the taste of the human flesh, what starvation? What trying to stay alive? Their family was dying of hunger almost all the time, it would be surprising if they got enough to eat in the first place!
Tan Mo had nothing but hatred for these two women but she knew that there was no way she and Xiao Yu could fight against them, other than Hu Pan and Hu Bing, they had two more husbands each and each one of their husbands had given a child to them making the count of their children upto six.
At the moment, only her family had enough kids while each family had offered one of their kids to avoid getting killed. She knew that if she tried to fight against Qi Qing and Yang Jie, then these women will all support them, for the sake of avoiding another one of their kids to these women and the village head.
In the past, they all handed their mer sons who were nothing but useless leeches in the eyes of these women to the village head and saved their skins but now they all had only a daughter or two daughters left with them, the village women of the Big stone village really could not afford to lose another kid.
In their eyes, Tan Mo only had three kids and a daughter. As for the remaining two they were all mers there was nothing wrong with handing one over to be killed and eaten!
Tan Mo saw the ruthless and greedy glint in the eyes of the women of the village and realised that if she did not do something then she will losing a kid tonight!
Just as she was worrying about what to do, she heard Xiao Yu say, " That woman who was caught looks like she is dead, why don't we bring her back? When compared to a child, her meat can be stocked up for a long time since she is an adult and not a child whose body is small enough to only fit into the teeth of the villagers?"
When Tan Mo heard the words of Xiao Yu, she was stunned. She did not expect her sister in law who was a scholar to say such a thing but when she thought about how that woman also liked eating human flesh, she suppressed her guilty conscience and also chimed along with Xiao Yu and then said in a soft voice,
" I am not trying to shirk responsibility but what my sister-in-law said is right. My kids are all sick, they don't have enough flesh on their bones compared to that woman they do not seem much filling!"
