You need to raise your pet using a system [Era]

Chapter 62 Everyone is enraged and beats the thief.

Within minutes, most of the villagers had come running over, and most of them were men and women, all carrying things in their hands.

Some were carrying hoes, some were holding sickles, and some were even holding kitchen knives.

The gong, a useful tool that the team leader usually uses to signal when everyone is starting or finishing work, is kept in the warehouse.

Lu Yuanqing knocked on the door while shouting that he was stealing grain.

One awakened everyone, the other made everyone nervous.

So they arrived incredibly fast.

As people gradually arrived, Lu Yuanqing clutched the back of his neck and leaned weakly against the wall.

"What's going on? I heard someone stealing grain?"

"Which brother-in-law dared to steal grain from our team? Where is he? Did he run away? Where is he? Who was guarding the warehouse tonight?"

Just as everyone was rushing angrily to the warehouse, the Niu couple lay in bed, showing no sign of wanting to get up and catch the thief.

"Husband, are you really not going to help catch the thief? He stole our grain!" The cow mother was still a little worried.

The village hasn't distributed grain yet; what they stole is theirs.

Niu Chengtian rolled over in frustration. "What's there to be afraid of? With so much grain, how much can be stolen? Even if some is stolen, it's the guard's responsibility. He failed in his duty, so he's responsible for returning the grain."

"I heard that Lu Yuanqing is on night watch tonight. Humph, isn't his family very powerful? He dares to upset my little treasure. I'm not going to get up and help him catch the thief. Let him be criticized by everyone."

"It would be best to chop off his accountant's official position, so that he can bully my little one just because he's a low-ranking official."

The cow mother nodded and closed her eyes to continue sleeping. "You're right. That brat Lu Yuanqing and that little bitch Lu Yuanhuan actually dared to look down on my little treasure. Let them learn a lesson this time and see how they explain themselves to the team."

The couple turned over and went back to sleep, completely ignoring the disturbances outside.

Meanwhile, when everyone rushed to the warehouse, they hurriedly asked Lu Yuanqing which way the thief had run off to. Lu Yuanqing weakly pointed into the house.

So everyone grabbed their tools and ran into the house.

then……

Then they saw five people lying on the ground, bound together with ropes, their bodies twisted into various shapes by the ropes.

"Isn't this... isn't this Big Head Niu?"

"What? He brought his men to steal our grain?"

"Those damned bastards! The grain piled up at the door is all millet! Our village only has a little over a thousand catties of millet left this year, and these damned people don't want to leave us any! They've packed it all up."

"Kill him! That heartless bastard! Let's kill him!"

A group of people suddenly attacked the five people.

Because there were so many people, those at the back also wanted to squeeze to the front to catch the thief, making the whole room crowded.

"Hey, no rush! If someone gets hurt by mistake, drag them out. There's plenty of space outside, drag them out and beat them up!"

I don't know who shouted this suggestion.

Anyway, Lu Yuanqing stood at the door and watched as everyone spontaneously made way for him, and several burly men from the village dragged him out like a dead dog.

Most importantly, the five people who had been knocked unconscious by the electric shock have now woken up after being thoroughly beaten.

But as soon as he woke up, he was in excruciating pain all over his body. When he opened his eyes, he saw so many villagers glaring at them fiercely.

Immediately, the five of them wished they could faint again and not see this scene.

This is terrible!

The captain stopped the enraged crowd when he saw that the man was about to be beaten to death.

"Everyone, stop for a moment and listen to me!"

"What are you saying! A scoundrel like that should just be beaten to death."

"Bullshit, do you want to become a murderer?" Zhao Zhongcai glared at Zhao Si.

That bastard always likes to contradict him.

But this time Zhao Si wasn't so easily stopped. "Captain, these five people are here to steal our grain! If we don't catch them and they get away, what will we do this year? Can you take responsibility?"

"That's right! If they dare to steal our grain, we'll kill them and they won't be held responsible!"

Zhao Zhongcai was too lazy to argue with them. He shoved Zhao Si aside and said, "Get out of the way. Let's get this straight first. These people are unfamiliar faces."

"So, who caught these people?! I heard the grain thieves were caught as soon as I arrived, who was so fast!"

"Also, who was on night watch tonight? How did they get in? And with so much food, did they do it without making a sound?"

This is Niu Aixiang's voice.

Of course she knew that Lu Yuanqing was on night watch, and she said those words to cause trouble for him.

She was still smug that Lu Yuanqing had gotten into trouble for keeping watch tonight, and she was sure he would be in trouble. She was happy just thinking about it.

Niu Aixiang was looking forward to seeing Lu Yuanqing be held accountable by everyone. The more she thought about it, the happier she became. She couldn't help but kick the people on the ground who had been beaten into pig heads and whose faces were completely unrecognizable.

The few people who arrived first and saw the thief's face couldn't help but twitch their lips.

puff!

Niu Aixiang arrived late and probably didn't see that one of the people lying on the ground was her beloved younger brother.

"Sister...Big sister...Save me!!!"

A familiar but weak voice came from below. Niu Aixiang looked down in disbelief and was met with a pig-faced face.

But this pig-face looks so familiar!

"Ah! Xiao Bao?!?" Niu Aixiang abruptly pulled her leg back, knelt on the ground, and reached out to touch Niu Datou's face. "Xiao Bao, it's you! What are you doing here..."

Gu Hailiang, who was holding a stick in the crowd, stared intently at this scene.

"Xiao Bao! Who hit my Xiao Bao? Let him go right now! He's such a good boy, still a child. He wouldn't steal food. This must be a misunderstanding. You've misunderstood my Xiao Bao..."

Gu Hailiang clenched his teeth tightly, staring at Niu Aixiang.

Finally, as if he had figured something out, he suddenly threw down the stick in his hand, turned around, and left without any hesitation.

Gu Baoxia stared blankly at his retreating figure.

She understood that at this moment, her second brother was probably going to give up on his second sister-in-law.

She watched all of this without any emotion, simply watching Niu Aixiang court death, without any intention of intervening.

Niu Aixiang shouted that Niu Datou was innocent and demanded that everyone release Niu Datou.

Enough is enough; there's no need to endure any longer.

An older woman swung her arm and slapped Niu Aixiang hard across the face.

With a slap, Niu Aixiang's face was thrown to the side, and her face swelled up instantly.

"What nonsense! Let me tell you, Niu Aixiang, your Niu Datou was caught on the spot. We saw him tied up with these thieves as soon as we arrived. There's nothing wrong with him."

"That's right. No matter how you try to cheat this time, it won't work. You dared to steal our grain. You deserve to be beaten to death."

"If you spoil him so much that he's become lawless and even dares to steal grain from the brigade, won't he just kill people randomly next time?"

"Don't let him get away with this. Take him to the police station and make him eat peanuts..."

Hearing the curses from those around her, Niu Aixiang collapsed and sat down on the ground, bursting into tears.

It's as if she's the one who's more aggrieved!

Everyone curled their lip and cursed!

Just then, Lu Yuanbo, Lu Mingxi, and Lu Mingnan also came over carrying a thick stick.

They were stunned at first upon seeing this scene, and then the three of them immediately looked for Lu Yuanqing.

Upon seeing him leaning weakly against the wall, looking in their direction with an expression that was, well, perhaps a hint of pleasure?, the three of them immediately ran over, shouting.

"elder brother!"

"Uncle Three!"

"Third Uncle, are you alright?"

Lu Yuanqing saw them as soon as they arrived, and naturally saw how anxiously they ran towards him.

Lu Yuanqing felt deeply comforted.

Take a look!

Take a look, everyone!

The pets you raise yourself are the most comforting.

I don't care about anything else; my primary concern is comforting him.

As for the others! Lu Yuanqing looked around and gave a haughty snort.

This group only cares about thieves.

He'd been posing weakly for ages, and not a single person had come to check on him!

hum!

"Third Uncle, what happened to your neck?" Lu Mingnan asked anxiously when he saw him weakly touching the back of his neck.

"Are you injured? Where else are you injured?"

The three children frantically surrounded him, touching and feeling around to check his condition.

Lu Yuanqing laughed happily, but still didn't forget his current 'weak' image, and said weakly, "I got hit, it hurts so much!"

He had been slashed on the back of the neck with a hand chop and then mercilessly woken up by the system's electric shock; he felt uncomfortable all over!

"What? They hit you? You're asking for it!"

Lu Yuanbo was the first to rush towards the five people who were already half-dead on the ground.

Regardless of whether he was going to die any moment, at this moment, the three members of the Lu family were furious and rushed over to punch and kick him.

“Yuanbo, calm down. The captain has sent men to the town police station. It would be difficult to explain if they killed him.”

"Let me go! If they dare to bully my third uncle, I'll beat them to death!"

"Hey, Xiaoxi, Xiaodong, calm down, they're going to die!"

"I'm not calm. They bullied my third uncle, they deserve to die!"

"Ah!! You shameless hussy, how dare you hit my little treasure! I'll fight you to the death!"

Lu Guobin snorted coldly, ripped Niu Aixiang aside and threw her to the side. "You're the slut, your whole family are sluts. Try bullying my Lu family in front of me!"

Niu Aixiang collapsed to the ground, sobbing, "Mom, Dad, Second Uncle, Second Aunt, where are you all? Xiaobao is being beaten to death! Come quick!!"

At this moment, Niu Cheng turned over and slept very soundly, snoring loudly!
