The beloved baby has a space

Chapter 412 Questioning
Tangyuan, panting, found Xiao Ayu and took her back to Old Wang's house.

The little lamb, with its mouth crooked, nibbled on a carrot given to it by some villager, and slowly followed along.

As they approached, a villager called out to it, "Little lamb, come here, the newly grown grass here is so tender."

The little lamb glanced at it and really didn't want to go.

Hmph, don't think it's stupid. It's just that the villagers are lazy and don't want to weed, so they let it weed.

But after sniffing around and glancing at the human cub to make sure she was safe, he went over.

It's not an ordinary sheep; it has grazed on grass all the way from Hujia Village to Nanhe Town, and then from Nanhe Town to Yongding County.

In the end, it was determined that, apart from the grass in the yard of Old Wang's family in town, the grass in Hujia Village was the best-tasting.

It doesn't taste the same outside.

When it arrived, it found the Spirit Treasure Mouse lying sprawled in a pile of grass, cradling a small sweet potato less than two inches in size, clearly the kind the villagers planted.

Next to the Spirit-Testing Rat, there were seven or eight ordinary rats, all grunting and munching on grass roots.

lamb:?
The villagers chuckled and said, "Ayu is truly a lucky charm. In previous years, our village was poor, and there weren't many rats. If they came, they would just be caught and eaten. But these past two years, the arrival of rats has been a real headache. But now, Ayu has found this magical rat, which has kept all the rats in the village completely under its control."

Another person said, "That's right. The village has enough food now, and these rats can help gnaw on grass roots, which saves us a lot of trouble. The old vegetable scraps, potato peels, sweet potato peels, fish heads and the like have a place to go, and the village doesn't have so much of that stinky smell anymore."

“Last time someone came to our village, they were quite startled to see rats helping us gnaw on grass roots.”

"Haha, I would have been shocked if I hadn't watched them gradually become more obedient."

"It's all because of Ayu. All the mice she's raised have been good."

The Spirit-Testing Rat seemed to understand that everyone was praising it; it raised its little head, looking incredibly proud.

On the contrary, the lamb felt a sense of crisis after seeing the group of mice.

It walked over and plopped down on the Spirit-Testing Rat's tail. The Spirit-Testing Rat squeaked, but dared not move.

The lamb grunted as it ate grass, its eyes glancing at the "diligent" mice, its pupils darting around.

When Xiao Ayu arrived at the Wang family's house, she saw that Old Madam Wang had already gone home, so she told her about the person she had met.

Grandma Wang asked, "Did your fifth brother go to call the village chief? Why didn't he come back with you?"

The village chief was at the sugarcane workshop. Old Mrs. Wang had taken care of everything there and temporarily arranged for more than twenty villagers to work at the workshop, after which the villagers dispersed.

Where can I find Wang Wulang?

"Maybe Fifth Brother got separated from everyone else." Little Ayu lifted her foot to leave. "Then I'll go find Fifth Brother again."

Did Fifth Brother get so excited that he forgot how to get around the village?
Oh dear, Fifth Brother is so careless.

"Achoo!" At that moment, Wang Wulang, who was in a pit in the village, sneezed violently and accidentally fell back halfway.

Damn it, some scoundrel dug a hole two zhang deep in the path, then covered it with soil and grass.

He almost fell to his death!
I called out for ages but no one answered.

Wang Wulang rubbed his nose, thinking angrily, "I need to learn ordinary kung fu quickly, and then learn lightness skill, so that I won't encounter this situation again in the future."

Just then, Village Chief Hu and his group walked over.

They were discussing matters related to the workshop.

"With this workshop, our village will no longer have to worry about making a living. Even if we don't get rich, we won't starve with this skill."

"As I said before, the Wang family is kind and generous. They don't hold back anything. Such a good skill is well worth keeping as a family heirloom, but they gave it to the village instead."

“Yes, they only take 20% of the workshop, give 30% to the village ancestral hall, and distribute the rest to other villagers. I don’t even know how they could do that.” “We have to reciprocate. No matter what, we must protect the Wang family, even if it costs us our lives!”

Village Chief Hu, being the lowest in seniority among the clan elders, could only nod repeatedly upon hearing this.

Suddenly, he noticed a large hole in the ground ahead and wondered, "Isn't that the cellar that was dug just the other day? How come it's leaking? Where's the wooden sign next to it?"

"It must have been blown away by the strong winds last night," someone said.

Before the words were even finished, Wang Wulang's faint voice came from the well: "Grandpa Village Chief, I've fallen in..."

He added that a stranger with a face full of blisters had come to the village and was at Dr. Hu's house, and asked Village Chief Hu to go and take a look.

Upon hearing that outsiders had arrived, everyone's expressions changed drastically, and they hurried to Doctor Hu's house.

After waiting for ages and seeing no one come to rescue him, Wang Wulang was like, "?"

What about people?

Meanwhile, in the thatched hut under the banyan tree in the village, the person lying on the wooden plank watched helplessly as Doctor Xue bound himself up tightly, like a silkworm cocoon.

The person: "?"

He smiled wryly and said, "Doctor, I just have blisters on my face. Is this the kind of treatment you need?"

"You're a traitor to the Youlong Clan, aren't you?" Doctor Xue ignored the other's suddenly stiff face and continued, "It's rumored that the Youlong Clan treats traitors extremely cruelly. They use the most evil snake venom to concoct poisons. Those poisoned will start to rot from their face and toes, and eventually their bodies will rot until only their internal organs remain, but they may not necessarily die."

The man's smile vanished: "I don't know what you're talking about. I just wandered into the deep mountains by mistake and got bitten by a poisonous insect."

"The Youlong Clan possesses a sacred dragon, rumored to weigh over a thousand pounds. The sacred dragon's venom can kill instantly, yet its saliva can neutralize any snake venom in the world." Doctor Xue looked at him. "You saw me and assumed the sacred dragon would be in this village, hoping to find an antidote here?"

The man remained silent.

If he hadn't been tied up by Doctor Xue, he would have told the truth, but Doctor Xue's attitude made him realize that telling the truth would mean death.

He didn't speak, and Doctor Xue wasn't in a hurry.

Instead, he went to the side, picked up the dog-beating stick, and carefully washed it in the copper plate next to him.

When they were wiping for the third time, Village Chief Hu arrived with his men.

They went to Dr. Hu's house first, but didn't see anyone.

Hu Ade told them that the person was in the thatched hut built by Doctor Xue.

When they arrived at the thatched hut, they saw Doctor Xue holding a dog-beating stick and gesturing at the person lying on the wooden board.

Village Chief Hu rushed over, saying, "Dr. Xue, Dr. Xue, this is unacceptable! No matter how bad this person is, we can't just kill someone without permission!"

Doctor Xue pretended to accept the instruction and put away the dog-beating stick.

"I was being presumptuous," said Doctor Xue.

Seeing how cooperative Doctor Xue was, Village Chief Hu felt extremely pleased; his words still carried weight as the village chief.

Then, Doctor Xue said, "I couldn't help myself in a moment of panic. This man deliberately approached Ayu today, and I just found out that he wanted to kidnap Ayu."

That person: ?
Village Chief Hu rolled up his sleeves and beckoned to those around him: "Da Liu, go to your Uncle Wang's house and get a big cage, just big enough to sink the fish into the pond! Xiao Liu, borrow the pig-slaughtering knife from Butcher Hu's house! Zheng Yi and Zheng Yong, one of you go to the carpenter's house to order a coffin, and the other go get a hoe to dig a pit—forget it, why bother with a coffin? We'll just find an old latrine and throw the fish in."

The person: "!!!"

No, who is Ayu? He doesn't even know her!
