He was attracted by Cao Xingteng's destiny of having many children and grandchildren, so he made a contract with him.

At this point, the Cao family looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

The Cao family has only had one son for three generations since the time of Minister Cao. They couldn't even have more daughters, let alone many sons and grandchildren.

The weasel looked at Minister Cao's expression and snorted again.

"The Cao family is now dwindling in numbers, which is the price Cao Xingteng has to pay for breaking his promise!"

When the late emperor was still alive, Cheng Jiao had not yet tampered with the imperial mausoleum, so the princes and grandchildren were naturally blessed by the purple aura.

The tiger that attacked the Fourth Prince was just a trick; the weasel used up all its spiritual power to complete the act.

The late emperor had taken a fancy to the fourth prince at that time and intended to make him the crown prince, so he would naturally reward Cao Xingteng who "risked his life" to protect the prince.

Cao Xingteng got an official position and a mansion, and then he invited Huangpizi back to serve him, which benefited both sides.

Unexpectedly, Cao Xingteng had evil intentions and went against what had been agreed upon. He pretended to deceive the beast at first, but then took out a knife when the beast was not prepared.

"Cao Xingteng chopped off my foot right then. If I hadn't used my inner elixir to counter it, I would have probably lost my life."

The weasel's voice became deeper and deeper. "Tell me, should I retaliate against the Cao family?"

Everyone present fell silent and the scene was very awkward.

The fact that this weasel is only coming to take revenge now shows that he was indeed seriously injured at the beginning. This is the debt that Cao Xingteng owes him.

Gu Lingze also scratched his head. This weasel had no blood and had never killed anyone. He had been practicing peacefully for so many years, but encountered such a thing. It was really unlucky.

Minister Cao stepped forward, clasped his hands and bowed, "I apologize to you on behalf of my father. The Cao family is indeed ashamed of you at this time, but the child is innocent. I am willing to pay with my life."

"father!"

"master!"

The rest of the Cao family panicked, and Madam Cao even knelt on the ground, "I am a wife of the Cao family. If you really want to pay with your life, then take mine."

Gu Lingze himself is a person who will avenge his enemies, so he can understand the resentment of the weasel. However, if Minister Cao and his family are as greedy and selfish as Cao Xingteng, and repay kindness with resentment, he will not care at all.

But after a few days of contact with them, he found that the Cao family was just as their faces showed, upright and unconventional, which was rare.

"Senior, don't let the disaster affect your family."

The weasel glared at him and said, "Do you mean for me to dig up Cao Xingteng's grave?"

Gu Lingze coughed twice, "That's not what I meant."

"Why don't you become a tribute to the Cao family and give them a chance to make amends."

The weasel waved his claws and said, "I am already in this state, why do I need any offerings?"

Perhaps because he was a little excited, the weasel started coughing again, and his body kept shaking.

"Ah Huang, it's you~"

Everyone's eyes turned to see Xiaobao standing at the bedroom door in his pajamas, his little hand pointing at the weasel on the chair.

There was another round of earth-shattering coughing. The weasel finally managed to catch its breath and immediately glared at Xiaobao.

"You little brat, shut up!"

Gu Lingze bit his upper lip and tried hard to suppress the corners of his mouth. He was afraid that if he laughed out loud, the other party would get angry and embarrassed.

Shi Lanqing hurriedly wanted to take Xiaobao back to the house, but Gu Lingze asked her to bring Xiaobao's quilt over.

Gu Lingze wrapped Xiaobao tightly and placed him on his lap, facing the weasel.

"Ah Huang, are you here to play with me again?"

"Ah Huang, are you hungry?"

"Ah Huang, you..."

The weasel's whiskers trembled with anger, and he slammed the table with his front paws, "I told you to shut up!"

Xiaobao pursed his lips, tears quickly gathered in his eyes, and it looked like the tears were about to fall.

The weasel suddenly looked panicked, and its two front paws unconsciously scratched the hair on its abdomen.

Gu Lingze gently shook Xiaobao twice, "Don't cry, Xiaobao, Grandpa Huang is just joking with you."

Xiaobao looked up at him and said, "Why is it Grandpa Huang? It's Ah Huang."

Minister Cao also came over at this time, "Xiaobao, you should respect your elders. This Huang..."

"He's Grandpa's old friend and our family's benefactor. You can't be rude."

When Xiaobao heard this, he blinked a few times and smiled widely, "Grandpa Huang."

The weasel glanced at Xiaobao unnaturally and uttered a low "hmm".

This weasel could have stayed hidden all the time. Anyway, it held Xiaobao's life in its hands. Even if Gu Lingze turned it out, as long as it was determined to fight to the death, Gu Lingze would be helpless.

It knew clearly that the person who could rescue Xiaobao must be an extraordinary person, but it came anyway. If it met someone who couldn't distinguish right from wrong, it might lose its life.

Maybe it wanted to kill Xiaobao at the beginning, but now it is willing to take such a big risk to come here, it must not be for this purpose, but it just can't swallow this anger.

Gu Lingze finally put his mind at ease. He had originally guessed it, and now it has been confirmed. The Cao family should be able to turn danger into safety this time.

He knew what was going on, so he handed Xiaobao in his arms to Shi Lanqing and signaled Minister Cao and the others to leave first.

Gu Lingze closed the door and turned around with a bottle in his hand. Zhao Chengmo frowned when he saw this, but Gu Tianhua knew nothing about it.

"I know you don't care about my talisman, but I have to be loyal to someone who has entrusted me with this. I hope this can make up for it."

The weasel's true identity had been exposed, and there was no point in continuing to stalemate with Gu Lingze. He was also a little curious, so he took the jade bottle from his hand.

As soon as he opened the bottle cork, he suddenly put it back on, staring at Gu Lingze with wide eyes.

"This is just an accidental gift from me, I hope you can accept it."

The weasel couldn't help swallowing twice, "Give it all to me?"

Gu Lingze smiled and nodded.

There were five drops of spiritual milk in the bottle, and he had lost a lot of blood this time.

The weasel hugged the bottle to his chest and said, "You can't regret it!"

"I won't regret it."

"You wait." After saying this, the weasel jumped off the chair, ran to the yard and started digging under a tree hole.

After a while, he dug out a gourd of strange color and wiped it with his claws, "Here, here you go."

Gu Lingze raised his eyebrows, "This is..."

The weasel cleared his throat and said, "This is the little guy's life span. I took your things, so I'll give them back to him."

Gu Lingze bowed and said, "Thank you for your understanding, senior." Then he took the gourd.

The weasel made a "tsk" sound, ran towards the courtyard wall with the bottle in hand, rolled over, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Without further ado, Gu Lingze took the gourd and walked into the room, asking the Cao family to prepare things, as he wanted to return Xiaobao's life to his body.
