The Qian family recounted in detail what had happened in the past few days.

It was probably like this: that day they carried two big bulls worth of coins to pray to the river god. They knelt for a long time but the two dragon statues on top did not respond. Just when they were about to leave, a gust of wind suddenly blew in the temple. Everyone was confused and reached the door. The door was closed, locking the two big bulls worth of coins inside.

The next day, the door opened and Qian Daniu in human form came back to life. The mandrill broke free from its restraints and ran away recklessly. Some people saw it heading out of the town, perhaps back to the mountains. In any case, it didn't stay in the town and no one paid any attention to it.

The mandrill was so badly injured that it might not survive, so there's no need to worry about it.

It was just a pity for Qian Daniu. He was already starving and was bitten by the beast. He lost a lot of blood and it took him several days to recover.

Madam Qian sighed and said, "His injury wasn't too serious, just a scar. It made his wife cry a lot, and she was so worried about him for so long that she almost had a miscarriage. She can't move around, otherwise she would have wanted to come with him today."

When it comes to Pei's daughter, the Qian family can't help but feel a little worried.

Jinghui thought for a moment, took out a peace amulet and handed it over, saying that it had been offered to Yinggu.

After hearing the story, Pei Xiaohai stopped crying and stared at Qian Daniu curiously. Sure enough, there was a big scar on his neck. Most of the scabs had fallen off, revealing pink granulations. It was really awkward to have these two things growing on the skin that should have been smooth.

Cheng Tianbao also studied it for a long time. "Biting the neck? Could it be trying to suck the blood? That mandrill is so big, I'm afraid it has some Taoism skills and has evil intentions. Killing it should be easy, why did it let it go?"

Pei Xiaohai guessed that the mandrill was afraid of being beaten to death, so it didn't dare to harm anyone.

Master and the others said that these wild animals are very smart and know how to judge people. With so many people outside, it must be scared.

Thinking of the mandrill, Pei Xiaohai recalled the double vision she had experienced. Thinking about it carefully, it seemed that both times she had double vision, she saw mandrills.

At that time, there were two souls in the mandrill's body, so double vision was normal.

Looking at it now, it's definitely not like that. Her head is definitely not broken.

Pei Xiaohai figured it out, and the Qian family sat and talked for a long time before leaving.

The nuns were so happy about the happy family reunion that they started talking more.

After listening to them, Pei Xiaohai finally understood the whole story. It turned out that Qian Daniu went to the mountain because his elder sister wanted to eat fresh peaches. In fact, these peaches could also be bought at the market, but Qian Daniu was so happy when he heard that his wife was pregnant that he insisted on picking them himself.

The Qian family runs a wine shop. Sometimes when business is bad, Qian Daniu will go up the mountain to pick some mountain products to cook with, which can save some money. As long as he doesn't go too far inside, it's fine.

When he said he wanted to go, no one took him seriously. But something unexpected happened. It was said that he was caught by a mandrill and passed out. When he woke up, he had turned into a mandrill and was being beaten by a group of monkeys.

Jingneng sighed: "It's a good thing he's fine, otherwise how would our eldest daughter cope with it?"

Jingchi said, "The two elders of the Qian family are rare and reasonable people. Otherwise, I don't know what would have happened."

Jinghui: "Given the character of the two old donors, they would never vent their anger on the eldest daughter. However, I don't know how much pain they must be in losing their son and husband..."

All in all, nothing's wrong!

Jing Chi stared at the replaced altar table and said, "Alright, let's not talk about that anymore. It's all fine anyway. Their good days are still to come.

Let's worry about ourselves first. Come over and help put this table in the cellar. We can put a shelf on top of it later. It can hold a lot of things."

There is a large cellar in the temple on the mountain. The vegetables harvested in autumn, dried fruits, pickled candied fruits, picked mountain products, and various foods collected from begging are all placed in the cellar at this time. When the mountain is blocked by heavy snow, it will be difficult for them to go down.

This is the confidence for the nuns to survive the winter, and it is also what Jingchi cares about most. She doesn't want to encounter the bad situation this year where there is not enough food when cooking, and there is a little thing at her feet rolling on the ground and crying because it can't eat the fruit.

Little Pei followed them, wanting to play in the cellar as well.

But the nuns wouldn't allow it.

Cheng Tianbao went there, but soon he was frightened and ran back, saying with lingering fear: "There are big rats in there! Such big ones!"

He gestured as big as a dog. Pei was afraid of being bitten and believed it, so he ran away for a long distance.

I only saw Jingneng carrying two little mice up and releasing them...

Pei Xiaohai: "What kind of eyes do you have?"

Cheng Tianbao blushed, his eyes wandering: "It was so dark down there, I didn't look closely. I heard the rats chirping, so I ran away."

Pei Xiaohai: "You are such a coward."

Cheng Tianbao: "Your words are really rude. If you are not afraid, go and play with them."

Pei Xiaohai: "I won't."

"why?"

"Because I'm a coward too." Pei Xiaohai admitted it very frankly.

Cheng Tianbao didn't appreciate her honesty at all. Instead, he became angry: "Then why are you talking about me?"

Pei Xiaohai: "Oh, I'm happy with it. What can you do to me?"

Cheng Tianbao really couldn't do anything, he could only repeatedly scold her as a scoundrel, a piece of meat that couldn't be flattened by a hammer...

Pei couldn't understand many of the words, so naturally they had no killing power. Cheng Tianbao saw that she didn't take it seriously, so he continued to scold her and then collapsed to the ground and started crying.

The next day, there was frost and the vegetables in the field were frozen. Pei Xiaohai thought it was him crying and went to complain to the old nuns.

What a huge blame, it was put on me right away.

Cheng Tianbao cried so hard that snow fell in the house.

The three old nuns cleared his name while looking at Pei Xiaohai, who was still arguing with others, with a headache:

This time Lian Jingneng doesn’t even care about fate. This kid just deserves a beating. How can he be addicted to bullying ghosts?

It is obviously impossible to expect Pei Xiaohai to find a way to get along with his friends on his own.

Will it feel better if I get beaten up?

Pei Xiaohai's eyes were wide open, red, and he cried and yelled: "I'm sorry, I won't talk to you anymore!"

Cheng Tianbao's face flushed and his neck thickened: "I won't pay any attention to you either!"

The two of them ran away after yelling, but after a night, they stuck together again.

The three old nuns were drying their quilts and clothes that were wet from the snow and were still damp. They thought to themselves: We don't want to bother with you anymore. You are such unlucky kids.

Little Pei still thought he was pretty good. He tugged at Jingzhi's clothes and said, "Master, my throat hurts. Can you stew some pears for me?"

Cheng Tianbao: "I want one too!"

Little Pei pointed to the side and said, "He wants one too."

It is they who need to reconcile, but it is others who have to suffer.

Jingchi was so angry that he laughed: "Do I look like a stewed pear to you two?"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Pei Xiaohai ran away and hid in the corner, peeking at her.

The man and the ghost secretly complained: "Why are you angry again? Can we still eat stewed pears?"

"It's probably over. Don't worry about it. Let's go play with rabbits."

Pei Xiaohai was unhappy: "I don't want to play with rabbits, I want to eat meat, I'm so greedy."

Cheng Tianbao had long been tired of eating eggplants, beans, radishes, and cabbages with Pei Xiaoxiao every day. He rolled his eyes and started to come up with a bad idea: "Why don't we roast a rabbit secretly? It's farther away and the nuns won't notice."

When their eyes met, the expressions revealed were one of mutual sympathy between the two greedy ghosts.

"good idea!"
