With the matter resolved, Lei Hu went to notify the nearby villagers.
The plainclothes Xiu Luo Envoys helped dig the earth and uncovered thirteen sets of girl remains.
Families who had lost their daughters hugged each other and wept bitterly.
In the mountain wilderness, all that echoed were sounds of sorrow.
Bai Zhi'er supported an old lady's hand.
Because other families came with two or three people to identify the bodies, only this old lady came alone.
"Granny, take care of your health. The deceased have passed, don't be too sad," she softly and gently consoled.
The old lady, her hair already flecked with white, tearfully told Bai Zhi'er.
"My son and daughter-in-law died early, leaving only my granddaughter, and now she's gone too."
Bai Zhi'er sighed gently.
Parting from life and death is the hardest problem to solve in the human world.
