Chapter 806 The Scared Village Chief
When Jiang Jiyuan heard that Zhou Yan was discovered alone by Tang Qiquan, his face instantly became solemn and he remained silent.
Did that man take advantage of Zhou Yan? Did Zhou Yan escape from the Japanese?
Jiang Jiyuan turned around and thought that this was impossible. If that man was using Zhou Yan, then she would have died in Heji Village, not in Xiaomu Village so far away.
Jiang Wenming seemed to have thought of something and suddenly asked, "Village Chief, you said he brought Zhou Yan back half a month ago, but now Zhou Yan is pregnant. If this child is not Tang Qiquan's, his family wouldn't be so concerned about it, right?"
"And even if we count from the day they met, Zhou Yan's pregnancy should have been less than two weeks old, so it shouldn't be detected now."
After hearing what Jiang Wenming said, the village chief showed a hint of embarrassment on his face.
He hesitated for a moment, then said, "That...that Xiaoquan kid will never have children in his lifetime."
When Jiang Jiyuan and Jiang Wenming heard what the village chief said, they were so surprised that they couldn't close their mouths. They obviously didn't expect such an outcome.
The village chief also realized the truth of the matter at this time. He got off the bed as if he had suddenly realized something and walked quickly to Jiang Jiyuan.
He approached Jiang Jiyuan and the others and asked, "So, it's this Zhou Yan who's problematic, and you're suspicious of our village because of her? But why should I believe you?"
Jiang Jiyuan took out his ID and handed it to the village chief. "We are from the organization. This is my ID."
Jiang Wenming, who was standing next to him, told the village chief everything that had happened in Heji Village with a serious expression.
After hearing this, the village chief returned the certificate to Jiang Jiyuan. His face turned pale instantly and his pupils dilated sharply, as if he was extremely frightened.
Suddenly, the village chief's body seemed to lose support. He staggered and collapsed to the ground.
His lips trembled slightly as he said in fear, "If...if the father of the child in her belly comes looking for her, then...then will our village...become a hell too?"
Jiang Jiyuan looked at the village chief's horrified expression and couldn't help but sigh inwardly. He nodded and said in a deep voice, "That's for sure. Zhou Yan has no mercy on her own parents, so what are you in her eyes?"
After hearing what Jiang Jiyuan said, the village chief's body trembled involuntarily. He widened his eyes and his face was full of disbelief.
Jiang Jiyuan continued, "Besides, she's been in your village for so long. I suspect she's already leaked information about your village. Has anyone in your village joined the army? Their families might be her next target."
The village chief swallowed hard, nodded, and replied in a trembling voice, "More than a dozen children from our village ran away to fight the Japanese. Could it be... could it be... that she really..."
Although their village is some distance away from the county town, it is not particularly far.
If the Japanese planned to attack the county town from the west gate, then their village would undoubtedly become the Japanese's only way through.
Thinking of this, the village chief's face turned paler. He got up in panic and wanted to immediately notify everyone to flee this dangerous place.
However, just as the village chief was about to rush out, Jiang Jiyuan quickly reached out and grabbed him.
Jiang Jiyuan held the village chief tightly, then leaned close to his ear and whispered in a low voice for a long time.
The village chief nodded continuously as he listened.
"Okay, I'll let my youngest son go to the nearby guerrillas and ask them to come and support us." After saying this, the village chief turned and ran out the door.
Jiang Wenming looked at the village chief's hurriedly leaving back, and suddenly remembered the village chief's family who were knocked unconscious by him, so he followed the village chief and chased after him.
The village chief ran into the yard and anxiously called his youngest son's name, but there was no response.
He grew increasingly anxious, and quickly ran to his youngest son's room, banging on the door and shouting, "Qi Feng, open the door! Daddy has something urgent to talk to you about!"
However, the room was still quiet, without any movement.
At this moment, Jiang Wenming walked up and pushed open the door. Seeing his movements, the village chief hurriedly followed him in and turned on the light in the room.
The moment the lights came on, the village chief saw his youngest son covering his face, then opened his eyes and looked at him in confusion.
Tang Qifeng had obviously not yet fully recovered from his unconscious state. He murmured, "Dad, why did you hit me?"
As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes suddenly fell on the man behind his father.
His eyes suddenly widened, his face filled with astonishment, his fingers trembling involuntarily as he pointed directly at the man, his voice becoming a little stammered due to extreme shock: "You...how did you get into my house?"
Seeing him like this, Jiang Wenming knew for sure that the man was fully awake, so he nodded slightly to the village chief, then turned and left the room silently.
"Dad, he..." Tang Qifeng wanted to say something else, but as soon as the words came to his lips, he was interrupted by the village chief's stern rebuke.
"Shut up! Now is not the time for you to talk. Listen to me!" The village chief leaned close to his son and whispered his plan to him.
Jiang Jiyuan and Jiang Wenming waited in the yard for a while, and then they saw Tang Qifeng rushing out of the house with a bag on his back. He opened the yard door and ran out without looking back.
"Village chief, are you just going to let him go out alone?" Jiang Wenming looked at Tang Qifeng's back as he walked away, and turned to meet the worry on the village chief's face.
The village chief slowly shook his head, sighed, and explained to them, "No, he went to look for his cousin. I'm really grateful for your reminder today, otherwise, our village might have been in big trouble."
Jiang Jiyuan and the others followed the village chief closely and walked out of the village chief's house together.
The village chief walked hurriedly towards the village to discuss the relocation with other people.
Later, Jiang Wenming returned to the small courtyard alone. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw several people in the yard busy grinding medicinal herbs.
Jiang Jiyun accidentally raised his head and caught a glimpse of someone walking into the yard. Upon closer inspection, he found that it was only Jiang Wenming.
He immediately put down his work, walked over, and asked with concern, "Uncle, you're back? Where's my brother?"
Jiang Wenming glanced at Jiang Jiyun, then at Peng Yongyan, who was grinding herbs with his feet, and replied, "He's gone to monitor Zhou Yan. Why don't you guys go and rest? We have to travel tomorrow."
Jiang Wenming suddenly noticed that the phone in his arms was vibrating.
He hurriedly took out his phone, pressed the answer button, and Jiang Jiyuan's voice came from the other end of the line.
"Uncle, Zhou Yan sneaked out of the village. I'm following her now. You must be vigilant in the village!" Jiang Jiyuan's tone was a little anxious.
After hearing this, Jiang Wenming's face darkened and he quickly instructed, "Okay, I understand. Be careful and contact us immediately if anything happens."
