Chu Xiao leaned his back against Yan Zhenshen, stretched out his right hand and shone it in the sunlight, a faint light and shadow shone through his fingers.

“It’s the one who dug the well.”

Chu Xiao spoke lightly, his tone casual and natural. For people in the end times, killing people is really nothing to be surprised about.

In the past, he simply had no reason to take action. In his eyes, Chu Lao Er, Li Xiu Lan, and Zhang Yi Ju were nothing more than clowns.

Besides, their insults were not directed at him, Chu Xiao, so there was really no need to take their lives.

If there was a time when he had the intention to kill, it was Yan Zhengxing who dared to attack his elder brother Shen and his second younger brother.

But the Yan family members let bygones be bygones, so there was no need for him to step out.

But this time, when he saw the death of the ball, he really couldn't tolerate it.

Maybe for most villagers, it's just a dog, and if it dies, it's dead.

But Chu Xiao is different. Even though he expresses dislike and always says he has abandoned them, these dogs are his companions.

What's worse, they are all his, Chu Xiao's children. He cannot bear it if they are really hurt.

As the saying goes, give someone a taste of their own medicine. If Piqiu was not dead, he would not have taken that person's life even if he had been given time for treatment.

But Pi Qiu died, taking his last breath in front of him. He admitted that his anger overcame his reason at that moment. He didn't even think about how the Yan family would cope if he killed someone.

"You don't have to think so much. This matter can always be resolved." Yan Zhenshen didn't particularly care that his husband had actually killed someone. Anyone his husband wanted to kill must be someone who deserved to die.

"If they really ask, just say you know nothing about it, and try not to use your supernatural powers in the future."

Chu Xiao turned around and lay on Yan Zhenshen's shoulder, and said seriously: "Brother Shen, is it wrong for me to do this?"

"Why do you think so?"

"Killing people here is against the law. Who knows, it might even implicate your whole family."

"I was too impulsive. I should have captured him and killed him in the deep mountains and forests. But he was so blatant near the village. I'm afraid no one dared to go to that mountain."

Yan Zhenshen listened to Chu Xiao's words, shook his head helplessly and smiled. His husband knew that killing was wrong, but his words did not imply any regret for killing someone, only regret for not considering the whole matter.

"Alas, Third Sister cried so pitifully today, I couldn't even comfort her. If Mother knew, she would probably be worried sick."

Chu Xiao was so distressed at the moment. Why was he so impulsive? He could hide the person first, and then throw him into the mountains to feed the wolves when it was dark and windy and no one was around.

"He was killed by lightning. It has nothing to do with us." Yan Zhenshen instructed Chu Xiao to stick to this point and no one could do anything to them.

Anyway, people are very superstitious these days, so even if the government investigates this strange way of death, there will be no evidence.

"He shouted for help, and some villagers heard it."

Yan Zhenshen: "Just say he beat himself for no apparent reason. Just think of it as him doing all the evil things he could do, like running into a ghost even in broad daylight."

"Yeah, yeah." Chu Xiao nodded repeatedly. The two of them discussed a set of excuses, and Chu Xiao felt that there was no big problem.

He wasn't afraid of not being able to remember. After all, it was normal for a young man like him who had been so frightened to speak incoherently.

"My ball is gone." Chu Xiao suddenly felt a little lonely again.

Yan Zhenshen did not respond. He had been raising dogs for many years and had lost many hunting dogs. Naturally, he felt bad every time one died.

When the ox cart entered the city, Yan Zhenshen did not park the cart at the storage room, but drove directly to Tong Ren Tang.

This play has to be done in full, and now her husband is the frightened one.

As soon as he entered Tong Ren Tang with the man in his arms, Doctor Hu ran over and asked worriedly, "What happened to Xiao?"

"I'm frightened. Go lie down in the inner room first. Please feel my pulse."

Doctor Hu did not hesitate at all and led the person to the inner room.

Just by feeling his pulse, the corners of his mouth twitched: "He is as strong as an ox."

Chu Xiao was unwilling to do so, and held Yan Zhenshen's hand in a weak manner: "Brother Shen, my stomach hurts so much, will the baby be in danger?"

Yan Zhenshen also shook his hand back and looked at Doctor Hu with a gloomy look in his eyes: "How about you take a closer look?"

Doctor Hu felt that there was definitely something wrong with these two people, so he took their pulses carefully, but the pulses were very stable, and he would still come to the same conclusion even if he did it ten times.

"Why don't you just tell me what pulse you want?"

Doctor Hu did not keep them in suspense. He had been a doctor for so many years and had seen a lot of the world. Especially for families with property, it was not the doctor who decided whether a person was sick or not, but whether the person wanted to or not.

Yan Zhenshen and Chu Xiao exchanged a glance. Chu Xiao nodded, and then he spoke: "There was a person who was struck to death by lightning on the mountain in our village. My husband happened to see it and was frightened."

Doctor Hu frowned, looked Chu Xiao up and down for a moment, and asked suspiciously, "Was he really killed by lightning?"

Chu Xiao rolled his eyes at him in anger and said, "If you don't believe me, go and see for yourself. It's all black and blurry."

Doctor Hu: “…” He didn’t dare to go and see it, for fear of affecting his appetite.

"You didn't kill the man, why are you pretending to be sick?" Doctor Hu was only familiar with Chu Xiao, and they had business dealings. Of course, the most important thing was to know the character of the Yan family, otherwise he would not dare to ask such questions.

You never know if you asked something to the point and ended up getting your neck cut in the middle of the night.

Chu Xiao didn't lie down anymore, he turned over and sat up, "I saw how he was hit. If I'm a kid, what if I'm not scared? What if the government suspects me?"

"It was struck by lightning. Why would I doubt you?" Doctor Hu sneered, "Can you control lightning?"

Chu Xiao: “…” I really can.

Yan Zhenshen spoke at the right time: "Xiao Ge'er is pregnant and doesn't want to be disturbed all the time."

Doctor Hu agreed with this statement. He believed that one should take good care of one's body. It would be bad if someone came to disturb one from time to time and made one emotionally unstable.

Especially those government runners, they were very fierce when questioning. As an old man, he didn't like to deal with them, let alone a young man.

"Okay, you're too frightened and emotionally unstable. I'll prescribe some pregnancy-maintaining medicine for you."

Doctor Hu would never say that the fetus is unstable, as this might offend the fetal god.

Anyway, it is a pregnancy-maintaining medicine and people with good health can take it.

Yan Zhenshen nodded: "Thank you, Doctor Hu."

"Don't worry, I know what to do." Doctor Hu put away the diagnosis pad for taking the pulse and said casually, "You are really brave. You are not afraid of that scene."

"I'm scared." Chu Xiao stretched out his arms and said, "I'm almost scared to death. How about you give me a hand? I always feel stuffy here and my stomach is not very comfortable."

Chu Xiao covered his heart with his right hand and raised his left hand upwards.

Doctor Hu rolled his eyes and said, "Okay, okay, please take a rest. I'll bring you the medicine later."

Chu Xiao immediately stopped being naughty and thought, does this really require taking medicine?
