After eavesdropping on my thoughts, my whole family changed their fate

Gu An had gone there once before and it was extremely boring.

I stay in the Taoist temple every day. There is nothing there, not even birds poop. It's very boring.

Gu An looked at his mother with grievance and pleaded, "Can I not go, Mom? I promise I will never skip school again. I will be diligent and get up early, just like my big brother!"

He didn't want to go to the Taoist temple if there was no one to play with him.

Jin Ruoyun knew what he was thinking and tried to come up with a compromise. She glanced at Jin Yuanyuan.

"If you don't want to go by yourself, how about we bring our sister with us and let her play with you?"

Jin Yuanyuan, who was originally watching the show and even felt a little gloating, was dumbfounded when he heard this.

She pointed at herself, "Me?"

She was obviously just a spectator, so why did she get involved?

Hearing that someone was accompanying him, Gu An was not so resistant and nodded reluctantly.

"OK then."

Since they were going to a Taoist temple, Jin Ruoyun didn't bring much with her.

Since she was a monk, she only brought enough clothes for daily changes, and she didn't bring any pearl hairpins. She set out on her journey in simple attire.

She went to Taiqing Temple, a place she often visited.

Cheng Che followed on the side of the carriage to ensure safety on the road.

Ever since he had a heart-to-heart talk with her that day, the relationship between the two of them had heated up again. They seemed to have a tacit understanding. Even if Jin Ruoyun didn't say it, he knew that she already had him in her heart.

When he arrived at Taiqing Temple, Jin Ruoyun was arranged to stay in a room in the backyard.

Jin Yuanyuan followed along. Just as she put down her bag and before she could even sit down, Gu An came running in noisily.

"Yuanyuan, Yuanyuan, let's go out and play. I saw someone in the back hills making traps to catch birds to eat. Let's go and see what's going on."

"Wow, really?! Let's go, Third Brother."

When Jin Yuanyuan heard that someone was catching birds, she jumped off the bed excitedly. Her back and waist, which had been sore from riding in the carriage, didn't hurt anymore.

The brother and sister held hands and ran to the back mountain. Jin Ruoyun was worried and asked Ding Mo to follow them to protect them.

Someone had indeed set traps in the back mountain, but they were not for catching birds.

When Jin Yuanyuan arrived, she saw five or six half-grown children setting traps on the road.

They laid a huge net on the road and covered it with soil to prevent it from being discovered.

Jin Yuanyuan was a little puzzled and scratched the little hair on his head.

"They are catching birds, why don't they put out food to attract the birds? And the net is so big, how many do they plan to catch? If you don't know, you would think they are catching people."

Gu An felt that what Yuanyuan said made sense, that is, they didn't know how to set traps. So he planned to teach them how to set traps to catch them.

Just as the two were about to get closer, Jin Yuanyuan grabbed Gu An.

"Wait a minute, Third Brother! It seems like they really aren't catching birds, they're catching people!"

Gu An widened his eyes, somewhat unconvinced.

"That's impossible. Why are they arresting people?"

Jin Yuanyuan pointed to a little boy not far ahead and said:

"As soon as this little boy came over, those guys hid. From the way they moved, it was obvious that they hid because they saw him coming."

"My instinct tells me that their target is this little boy. Let's hide and see what happens next."

Less than five meters away from the trap, a little boy in a wheelchair was coming towards this side, with a servant behind him pushing him, looking shifty.

Jin Yuanyuan was too far away from the little boy and couldn't see his appearance clearly. She only saw that his skin was very white, the kind that looked bloodless.

The little boy's face was terribly gloomy, like a lifeless puppet. He allowed the servant to push him towards the trap without any sign of resistance.

Gu An also noticed something was wrong and pointed over there:

"They...they are not really going to hunt humans!"

While he was talking, the little boy was forced into the net.

The servant who pushed him, with a sly grin on his face and a look of gloating, pushed him into the net, then quickly ran out and evacuated to a safe place.

When the boys hiding on the hill saw him coming in, they immediately tightened the net.

One end of the big net was entangled in a tree. When they lifted it, the little boy was caught in the net and hung on the tree.

The boy who pushed the wheelchair also helped the boys tighten the rope and fixed one end of the rope.

After the boys succeeded, they stood under the net, pointed at the people in the net bag, and laughed.

"Hahaha, he's such an idiot. He was actually caught in our net. He didn't even know how to hide. No wonder his mother died. Such a stupid person, his mother must have hated him. That's why she committed suicide. Hahahaha."

The little followers behind him were full of malice in their words, mocking him for being motherless and friendless, and saying that he would have to fend for himself if he was caught.

After Gu An saw the face of the leader clearly, he opened his mouth wide and gossiped with Jin Yuanyuan eagerly.

"Stand in the front. I know the person who is speaking! He is in the same class as me. He is the son of the Prime Minister. His name is... He Lingsheng! He is very arrogant. He has bullied many people because he is the son of the Prime Minister."

If he wasn't a member of the Jin family, he would still be bullied even though he was afraid of heights.

He heard it from others that He Lingsheng blocked people in the toilet and made them lie down and call him grandpa.

Jin Yuanyuan didn't like this man and frowned tightly.

"Do you know the guy hanging on the tree with the bad leg?"

Gu An stared at him carefully and shook his head.

"I don't know him, maybe he's from the Taoist temple. No matter who he is, you can't bully people like this. Do you think we should go save him? But how can we save him with our tiny arms and legs?"

Jin Yuanyuan also wanted to save that man, feeling that he was so miserable.

She can use hidden weapons, but her strength is too weak and her accuracy is only good, which is useless.

As they hesitated, they looked at Ding Mo who was silently protecting them behind them.

Not far away, He Lingsheng took a stick and hit the little boy in the net bag, cursing at him.

"You are a motherless bastard, you still want to take my place? You are dreaming! Dad only has my mother in his heart. Your dead mother is nothing!"

"Hit me if you dare. You can't even stand up now, you cripple!"

The friends behind him also pointed at him and talked behind his back.

"Little Master He, let's stop wasting time talking to him. He is an ungrateful person. It would be great if he could stay in the countryside, but he had to come back to offend you."

"How about this, we all urinate on him to relieve Mr. He's anger?"

"Okay! I think it's okay. I still have some shit to do, and this cripple just got a good deal, hahahaha."

The little boy in the net bag had dead eyes, and he looked at these people with a dark look in his eyes.

He slowly stretched out his hand from under his sleeve, and in his hand lay several strange insects, which were the poisonous insects he raised.

When this insect bites a person, the person will not die immediately. Instead, the person will slowly melt like molten lava until death.

He was about to cast a curse on them when a flying knife suddenly cut the rope that was holding him.

Ding Mo withdrew his hand, turned around and stood behind Gu An and Jin Yuanyuan.
