Rizhao didn't even know who Blind Liu was. He came with a killing move, aiming to take people's lives. He was even more cruel than Feng Qingzi, and he could not be spared.

If he is spared, I am afraid that more people will be buried at his hands.

Blind Liu's face darkened, and he didn't move at all, but his long gray hair moved without wind, and each strand stood upside down, like a flag fluttering in the wind, rustling.

Rizhao was horrified when he saw this, but his moves were old. He had made the move with the intention of killing, and all his strength was concentrated on the sword in his hand. If he withdrew the move at this time, he would suffer a backlash.

Without giving him time to think, when the tip of his sword was approaching, Blind Liu swung his long sleeves and struck out with one palm. A powerful aura was like a mountain pressing down on his head, and with a "bang", it hit Rizhao's chest.

The word "Uncle Master" was still stuck in his throat when his sword fell to the ground, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and he flew out like a kite with a broken string. The two men he had brought with him both leaped up and rushed over, but their hearts were also shattered by the strong energy. The three of them were thrown against the blue brick wall one after another, and then fell to the ground with a "thump".

Rizhao's eyes were wide open, full of resentment. His master had mentioned to his fellow disciples more than once that, apart from himself, there was no one else in the world who could surpass them.

Because the only ones who could have surpassed them, Nanyangzi and Huaxinzi, had both passed away, turning into smoke. Furthermore, the Nanyangzi he remembered was not the same as she was now. He couldn't understand why his master, Feng Qingzi, had lied to him. Given his master's suspicious nature, he didn't believe he didn't know Nanyangzi was still alive.

At the moment before his death, he hated and resentful Feng Qingzi so much.

But he didn't know that Feng Qingzi had already passed away before him, and even his soul was not left behind.

Old Qin regained consciousness from the shock and ran out to see the charred remains of the green spider scattered all over the ground. He shook his head and said, "This yard has been stained for nothing."

Qin Yifan: "How annoying! Luckily, these green spiders were discovered in time and only killed four people. It's a blessing in disguise!"

Old Qin said: "Indeed, thanks to these four brave warriors, my son is safe and sound. Report them well and they will be rewarded accordingly."

Qin Yifan nodded: "It should be so."

He and his son exonerated Blind Liu with just a few words. Although Rizhao deserved to be put to death, it happened in the back hall of the county government office after all. He killed three people. As the father and mother of a county, he could not do without an explanation.

Therefore, Rizhao and his younger brother Fan Zhaoxue could only die at the hands of the green spider.

When Jian Ning and his companions returned, they learned that Rizhao had launched a counterattack and attacked the county government compound. This was too rampant and presumptuous. However, they had nothing to say about Qin Yifan's aftermath. Ding Youtian whispered to Jian Ning, "Brother Qin's arrangement may not be a bad thing. Prince Yong will eventually bring about his own destruction if he continues to act this way."

Jian Ning had no interest in officialdom matters. She couldn't understand them, nor did she want to. She only cared about whether Dabao, Qiaofeng, and the others were frightened. After asking, she learned that Yue'e had been holding them and Mei Niang and the other women back from witnessing the bloody scene.

It was getting late, so Ma Fuquan said goodbye and took Guoguo back to Dingjia Village on Qiu Ge's bus.

Guoguo initially refused to leave, but Ding Youtian gave it some psychological counseling and entrusted it with the important task of looking after the four little foxes. Only then did it reluctantly follow Ma Fuquan.

Yuechan and her sister rested in the back hall of the county government office. Blind Liu was dragged to Old Qin's home by force. The two old men actually planned to have a night talk by candlelight around the charcoal fire.

Old Qin was so impressed by Blind Liu that he said that if he were not half buried in the earth, he would have to take him as his master.

Mei Niang nudged Jian Ning quietly with her elbow and lowered her voice, "I've been married to his family for many years, but this is the first time I've seen my father-in-law be so talkative. It's rare to hear him say a few words except when he argues with my mother-in-law."

"Fortunately, Brother Qin doesn't have the same temper as your father-in-law." Jian Ning couldn't help but chuckle when she thought of the time when Old Qin asked Ding Youtian to write the words "Mother is critically ill, come back quickly."

"What are you laughing at?" Ding Youtian and Qin Yifan were walking side by side in front. When they heard her laugh, they turned their heads and asked.

"Laugh at you."

“Oh, what’s so funny about me?

"you guess."

"No guessing. How can I guess what my wife is thinking? Anyway, whatever my wife says is right."

Mei Niang poked Jian Ning again, thinking that their way of getting along as a couple was really novel. "Do you usually talk to your husband like this?"

"What else? Do I have to burn three sticks of incense to worship him?"

Mei Niang burst out laughing, and this time it was Chun Yifan's turn to turn around and ask her what she was laughing at. She glanced at Jian Ning with a smile, implying that she would not dare to answer her husband like she did, "Nothing, I was just joking with Sister Jian, talking about the way we women talk."

Hearing her say this, Jian Ning wanted to ask her, "Sister, did you have any pregnancy dreams?"

Mei Niang shook her head. "I rarely dream, and even when I do, I forget it as soon as I wake up. Even if I remember it, how can I know if it was a pregnancy dream? Madam Li and my mother-in-law told me that pregnancy dreams would be clear in my mind. I was just about to ask my sister, is it true as they said?"

Jane Ning is nominally the mother of four children, but she has never been married, so she has no idea about the details. However, due to her work, she has heard that pregnant women not only remember their fetal dreams very clearly after waking up, but also know that they were fetal dreams.

"Maybe it's still early. Some people will have prenatal dreams right after they get pregnant, while others will have them later. If you have a prenatal dream, your sister will know when she wakes up."

"Have you chosen a name for the baby?"

Jane Ning asked again.

"The boy's name is Qin Zhuoyi, and the girl's name is Qin Qiuyu." Qin Yifan turned his head and said.

"It sounds good, but how do you say it?" Ding Youtian took over. His understanding of Zhuoyi was that with a glass of sake, he could be isolated from the world and stay away from worldly troubles.

He could tell from the name Qin Yifan gave his child that Qin Yifan was tired of officialdom and indifferent to fame and fortune. This was unlike the Qin Yifan who had lofty ambitions in the past.

Qin Yifan said calmly, "I don't have any explanation. I just think that life is short, like grass and trees withering in autumn. With a cup of muddy wine, two or three close friends, and a peaceful and happy life, it is not in vain to have lived in this world."

Ding Youtian was startled. Wasn't this the comfortable life he'd longed for? He'd been listening to Liu Xiazi's historical biographies since he was little, and after attending school, he'd developed this desire. Qin Yifan had often advised him that a man, standing between heaven and earth, should vow to be a pillar of his country and leave his name in history.

Why are they the other way around now?

He was planning to go his own way, but he turned around and took up the banner of inaction. Thinking about how he dealt with Rizhao and others tonight, he seemed to have realized something.

He raised his hand and pressed Qin Yifan's shoulder, and everything was said without words.

When they arrived at the Qin Mansion, Jian Ning and Ding Youtian were husband and wife, so Mei Niang naturally arranged them to stay in the same room.

There was only one bed in the room, and Jane Ning was stunned.
