Dongzhu…

Zhang Guihua couldn't help speaking, also wanting to ask Liu Dongzhu what exactly had happened, when her peripheral vision saw the small cotton blanket at Liu Dongzhu's feet, which was wrapping her precious grandson, the blanket was all stained with blood, she was startled, trembling in tone, panicked and said:

"Ping'an, Ping'an, what's going on, he, he, is he okay?"

While speaking, Zhang Guihua ran toward Liu Dongzhu at top speed, her footing unsteady, nearly falling to the ground, but she didn't care, just as she was about to reach out and take Wang Ping'an from Liu Dongzhu's embrace to examine him.

Liu Dongzhu stepped back, widening the distance between her and Zhang Guihua.

Zhang Guihua, puzzled, said: "Dongzhu, what's wrong with you, I'm your mother!"

"Mother, how did you and father come?"

Liu Dongzhu asked.

Just now.

Seeing the Heipao Ren corpse, and recalling Aunt Li's odd circumstances before and after, a flash of insight flickered in her mind, guessing that this Heipao Ren was very likely an Evil Cultivator causing trouble in Qingyang County.

It was attracted by the Great Virtuous Person status of her family's Ping'an!

Possibly knowing that their family has a treasured defensive item left by Xuanqing Daozhang, so they sent—no, they controlled Aunt Li to come over and lure away the Ping'an in her hand.

Nevertheless.

The corpse of this Heipao Ren lying here is very likely an Evil Cultivator, but as an old saying goes: not fearing ten thousand, but fearing the one, and carefulness brings no big mistake.

She does not have 100% confidence that the corpse of the Faction before her is that of an Evil Cultivator.

No one dares to guarantee whether her parents were controlled by an Evil Cultivator to come and snatch her family's Ping'an.

Only because Aunt Li lured away their family's Ping'an, she deeply experienced the painful feeling of just now losing Wang Ping'an, and now she no longer dares to entrust Wang Ping'an to anyone.

Even if that person is her mother!

"Dongzhu, didn't you used to like calling me 'mom'? How come you suddenly called me 'mother'!"

Zhang Guihua's face was full of confusion as she asked, but she had no mind to care about this matter; she also wanted to check whether her obedient grandson Wang Ping'an was in trouble.

Admittedly, looking at Liu Dongzhu's demeanor, her grandson Wang Ping'an does not seem to be in trouble.

But the bloodstains on the small cotton blanket still frightened her.

Zhang Guihua couldn't wait and said: "It was the Divine Cat Hero who brought me and your father here!"

"Of course it was I who commanded the Hei Mao Bu Tou, making it call grandpa and grandma over!"

Wang Ping'an chuckled.

Naturally it's not to expect the Hei Mao Bu Tou to bring his grandparents over and rescue him from the Evil Cultivator's hand; his grandparents are even less than the Hei Mao Bu Tou, so hoping his grandparents would save his life...

It would easily endanger his grandparents' lives!

Not long ago.

When Aunt Li took him to the forest, the Hei Mao Bu Tou followed behind her, ready to wait for his Sword Apparatus; after the Evil Cultivator's ambush failed, it would again command the Hei Mao Bu Tou to strike, and even Peregrine Falcon Little Gray was skirmishing nearby.

No one could have imagined that this repeatedly evil Evil Cultivator would be so easy to defeat.

No.

It should be said that he underestimated; using the Technique: Sword Nurturing, he condensed a Sword Qi into a Sword Apparatus, and moreover, while he was ambushing, the Evil Cultivator had no defense, yet he could even kill the Evil Cultivator.

He only arranged for his grandparents to come over after killing the Evil Cultivator; it's not that he was frightened, but that he noticed his mother's condition was very off. Obviously.

He was still immersed in the fear of losing him!

He invited his grandparents over, hoping they would comfort his mother.

"Mother, I just wanted to shout suddenly!"

Liu Dongzhu smiled embarrassedly, feeling a sigh of relief deep down; her mother's condition probably wasn't being controlled by an Evil Cultivator, as even the wrong address could be noticed.

But recalling Aunt Li's recent situation, she still dared not be careless, and hurriedly turned her head to look at the Hei Mao Bu Tou beside her parents.

Seeing that it showed no abnormality, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The Hei Mao Bu Tou, however, was even praised by Xuanqing Daozhang as a spirit beast, the protective divine beast of their family's Wang Ping'an; it brought her parents over and has not attacked them, indicating her parents are not controlled by an Evil Cultivator.

"Call me whatever you like!"

Zhang Guihua couldn't wait and said: "You better quickly tell me what's going on with Ping'an, I'm about to die of anxiety!"

"Mother, it's like this..."

Liu Dongzhu subconsciously opened her mouth and recounted everything she had just said, but before she could finish, Zhang Guihua cut in first: "What, you said Aunt Li said your father was bitten by a poisonous snake, letting you bring Ping'an over, and taking the opportunity to steal our family's Ping'an, is our family's Ping'an okay?"

"It's fine, it's fine!"

Liu Dongzhu shook her head; seeing that Zhang Guihua seemed not to believe her, she reached out to take Wang Ping'an to examine him herself. Liu Dongzhu was initially reluctant, but recalling the Divine Cat Hero's prowess, she finally handed Wang Ping'an over.

Zhang Guihua snatched the Wang Ping'an that Liu Dongzhu handed over with one hand, and under Liu Dongzhu's anxious gaze, she carefully examined him once; during this, she could see Liu Dongzhu's nervous eyes, but paid no mind, confirming that her obedient grandson Wang Ping'an seemed fine, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.

Wang Lin seized the chance to speak: "Dongzhu, quickly tell us what's going on, how could Aunt Li deceive you and steal our family's Ping'an, and what's up with this corpse?"

"Father, it's like this..."

Liu Dongzhu, while anxiously looking at Zhang Guihua, detailed the words she hadn't finished saying earlier.

After a long while, whether Wang Lin or Zhang Guihua, who had examined Wang Ping'an inside and out, after hearing Liu Dongzhu's account, couldn't help swallowing, and said in panic:

"You mean Aunt Li stole our family's Ping'an because she was controlled by an Evil Cultivator, and that corpse is the Evil Cultivator's body?"

"Father, mother, I mean that the Heipao Ren corpse is very likely the Evil Cultivator's body, but I can't say for sure if it truly is an Evil Cultivator!"

Liu Dongzhu's face grew solemn as she said.

Wang Lin, puzzled, said: "Whether he's an Evil Cultivator or not, how did he die? Could it be that Xuanqing Daozhang's thunder talisman we have took effect?"

"This..."

Just as Liu Dongzhu, also with a puzzled expression, was about to voice her speculation, she heard various voices outside calling her, and she hurriedly replied: "Village Chief, I'm here!"

Among them was a voice she recognized well, that of Village Chief Cheng Yong of Hutou Gou.

Soon after, Cheng Yong arrived with a squad of strong men, all brandishing weapons, their gazes instantly drawn to the Heipao Ren corpse, and he said: "Dongzhu, what's really going on?"

「Village Chief, is……」

Liu Dongzhu prepared to repeat what she had just said, but her voice was a little hoarse; before she could utter a few sentences, she coughed violently, and Wang Lin hurriedly said: "I'll say it, Dongzhu, you rest first!"

Afterwards.

Wang Lin recounted everything that had just happened in detail, and couldn't help asking: "Right, Village Chief, how did you guys come here?"
