The ancestral hall of the village commune was pitch black.
After all the arrows were fired, the villagers took refuge here.
The door of the village commune is normally kept closed, only opened during the New Year when tributes to ancestors are made. This was known by all the villagers of Daping Village, and Wang Dachuan should also know this.
So, the village head and Nan Feng were convinced that Wang Dachuan would never guess they were all hiding here. There wasn't a single person left in the village. Wang Dachuan must think they had escaped the village.
Although the ancestral hall was small and crowded with people squeezed together, luckily, it was not yet spring, so it did not feel hot.
Perhaps due to the tension, everyone was holding their breath, quietly listening to the movements outside.
