Reborn as the spoiled male wife of the mortal enemy

Nanchun looked into the distance and said, "This place is adjacent to an old mass grave, so most people in the village think it's a very dangerous place. Not to mention burying a grave here, even passing by would be considered unlucky."

But I have often played in this cemetery since I was a child, and I found that the flowers, plants and trees here grow better than anywhere else. It is not gloomy or dark at all, but full of vitality.

In fact, careful observation over a period of time reveals that the lighting here is excellent, and standing here offers a vast view, with mountains and rivers visible in the distance. So, far from being a dangerous place, this place is actually a rare Feng Shui treasure. Are you using this Feng Shui treasure to cultivate a life base for people?"

Bai Xun looked at him in astonishment. He had thought someone would be able to guess what he was thinking, but he had never expected that the first person to guess it would be Nanchun.

Both his grandfather and his brother thought he simply missed his deceased mother too much. Since there were many rules and regulations for paying respects at the Bai family tomb, they decided to build a cenotaph in this secluded place so he could pay respects and remember her at any time.

When Bai Xun proposed to build a separate cenotaph for his mother, the old man of the Bai family firmly disagreed. After all, she had already been buried in the Bai family tomb with great ceremony, so there was no reason to build another tomb.

Seeing that the grandfather and grandson were deadlocked over the matter, Bai Shan sent a telegram to invite Bai Song, who was far away in Yangcheng, to come back. After Bai Song and Bai Shan persuaded him, Bai Xun agreed to erect a tombstone without an inscription, and to tell others that it was the tomb of an old friend of the Bai family.

"Where did she go? Why did everyone think she was dead?" Nan Chun asked.

Bai Xun shook his head, stood up, and looked up at the sky. The snow was falling heavier and heavier, and the sky and the earth were hazy with snow, like a landscape painting in ink.

His eyes fell on Nanchun's ears, which were red from the cold, and then he took a step forward and handed him the food box.

"The snow is getting heavier. You should go home quickly."

Nanchun watched his figure slowly disappear in the wind and snow, feeling inexplicably melancholy.

He opened the lunch box in confusion, and saw a plate of steaming rice cake sprinkled with fine sugar at the bottom of the box.

He held a rice cake in his mouth and bowed three times towards the tombstone without any words on it.

That first snowy day was sweet and warm.

Not long after Mr. Nan left, a strange thing happened in Baijiazhai.

All the sheep in the sheepfold of Bai Datou's family at the east end of the village were bitten to death overnight.

Some said he was killed by wild beasts in the mountains, some said he was killed intentionally, and some said he was possessed by an evil spirit.

Nanchun also went to join in the fun, and felt sick when he saw the bloody and horrific scene.

All the sheep's limbs and necks were strangely twisted, with bite marks on their necks and blood all over the ground.

"They definitely weren't killed by wild animals! Look at the bite marks on their necks. Bite marks left by wild animals wouldn't be that shallow. And their limbs and necks were clearly broken by external force.

Their bodies weren't eaten, and they were left here intact. What kind of beast would torture its prey without eating it? "Pakho said with a frown.

As soon as these words came out, everyone agreed.

"Yes, if it was a wild beast that attacked, they would have eaten the meat. These sheep have no other signs of being bitten except for the bite marks on their necks."

"His sheep pen is right behind my house. If a wild animal attacked, I would definitely hear the noise."

"Beasts don't have the patience to break necks and limbs one by one, right?"

"That's right, I'm afraid it was done by a human!"

Bai Datou, who was rolling around on the ground, jumped up upon hearing this and yelled at the top of his lungs, "Which damn bastard killed my sheep? If you have any grudges or grievances, come and confront me, your grandfather, in person! Playing dirty tricks in secret is nothing!"

"Big Head, stop making trouble! Shuanzi has already gone to ask for Butler Bai."

"Yes, let's ask the butler to come and take a look at this matter. He is knowledgeable and has ideas."

As they were talking, Shuanzi arrived with Butler Bai, and with them came Bai Xun. Nanchun met his gaze, and he paused for a moment, but didn't stop, walking straight ahead.

"Butler, you have to make the decision for me! I have worked so hard to raise these sheep. They will give birth to lambs in two months, but someone has ruined them all!" Bai Datou said with tears and snot.

"Cause trouble? Who?" Bai Shan's face looked a little ugly.

"Oh, Shanbo, I'm just guessing this was man-made," Pakho explained. "These sheep had their limbs and necks twisted off, and their throats bitten open. It doesn't look like the work of wild animals, but more like the work of humans."

Baishan nodded, walked to the dead sheep and looked at the wound on its neck.

"If it was man-made, he had already twisted the sheep's limbs and necks to achieve the purpose of killing them. Why did he still bite open their throats? Only a madman would do such a thing through the thick fur." ​​Bai Xun said.

"Huh? Yeah!"

"Yeah! Would a normal person just bite an animal? Wouldn't that just leave a mouthful of fur?"

"It's like a wild beast, so disgusting..."

Baishan didn't say anything, but just checked each sheep one by one with a frown.

"Oh, by the way, when I was a kid I heard there were wild men in the mountains..."

"I've heard it from the old folks too! They say the wild man is over nine feet tall, covered in black and red fur, with a face that resembles both a human and a monkey, and feet as big as buckets!"

"I've heard about it too. Could it be the work of savages?"

"Don't make too much speculation about things that have not been verified, and don't spread rumors! I already know about this matter. When the head of the family comes back, I will report it truthfully, and we will figure it out then. During this period, if any rumors that disturb people's hearts are spread again, they will be punished according to the family rules!" Bai Shan said sternly.

When everyone heard this, they were all silent.

"Datou, although these sheep don't seem to have any major problems, it is difficult to guarantee their safety without inspection, so it is better not to eat them. Xiaowu, give Datou a subsidy according to the market price, and you guys take the bodies of these sheep back to the compound." Baishan said.

When Bai Datou heard that there was money to be made, he said with a smile, "I understand! Thank you, butler!"

Although the matter was not completely resolved, the victim was appeased in time and did not cause any more trouble.

"Everyone, please disperse! Please be careful these days! We will send more people to patrol the village, so there is no need to panic."

Seeing that there was nothing exciting to watch, everyone left on their own.

Nanchun was still confused, so he took a few steps towards the sheep's body.

"I have something to talk to you about." Bai Xun said, pulling his arm.

Nanchun wanted to take a few more looks, but he blocked her view.

"Talk while we walk." Bai Xun grabbed his arm and exerted force.

Nanchun had no choice but to follow him. But until they were almost at the Bai family's old house, Bai Xun still didn't say a word.
