Chapter 8 Son of Sin

Er Ma's wife couldn't help but yell at him in the field for meddling in other people's business.

She doesn't do any housework at home, but instead finds men for other people.

Ji Huaizhi fed sheep at the place where they hid the corpses, and also cleaned up the mess to prevent others from noticing anything.

Unexpectedly, I found an injured wolfhound nearby.

It probably smelled blood nearby and wanted to find something to eat in the vicinity.

I dug a few holes nearby, but because I didn't have the strength, the holes weren't very deep.

Ji Huaizhi took out some food to feed the dog, and the dog started whining and licking Ji Huaizhi's hand.

The black and brown dog looks quite healthy, but it's injured; it looks like a mix of a wolfhound and a country dog.

"Good dog."

Ji Huaizhi patted him: "Follow me and I'll get to eat meat, but you have to listen to me."

The dog struggled to its feet, whimpering even louder.

Looking at its wounds, it was beaten like this, but I don't know what it did wrong to almost get killed.

Ji Huaizhi thought for a moment and realized that there was indeed a place nearby that specialized in raising dogs and herding sheep.

That family just happened to be the one he needed to deal with.

The dog arrived just in time.

"He really is a good dog." Ji Huaizhi patted him and then fed him some sausages and other things.

In just a short while, the wolfhound had become very affectionate towards him.

She listened to him very well and even helped him watch the sheep.

Ji Huaizhi took him to an abandoned cave dwelling, made a makeshift nest out of dry grass, and left him water and food, telling him to behave himself there.

Looking back at the cave dwelling, they found hidden bloodstains on the ground, which Ji Huaizhi had cleaned up.

Take it slow.

After returning home, Grandma Ji was much better, and Da Ma Ji also looked more energetic.

Only Ji Erma and his wife were so tired they couldn't straighten their backs.

"Brother, why don't you come to the fields with us tomorrow?" Ji Erma also objected; he and his wife were exhausted, like dogs.

"There's so much corn in such a large field that the two of us can't possibly harvest it all."

“Go,” said Old Mrs. Ji. “From now on, Da Ma will go to work together, so he won’t bring back any more of those weirdos from home.”

Ji Dama: "I gave all the money I earned to my family. It's not like I didn't pay any money even though I didn't work."

Er Ma's wife was cooking at the stove when she heard this. She pouted and looked at Yu Man, saying, "Who doesn't know where your husband got his money?"

Yu Man didn't react much, she just played with her knotted hair.

She's counting down the days now, and the longer it goes by, the more excited she feels.

"I saw a dog while herding sheep today," Ji Huaizhi suddenly said. "The dog looked injured."

"Be careful with our sheep, they're probably raised by Li Laosi's family." Er Ma's wife knows a lot of things every day.

"He originally kept the dog to herd sheep, but he didn't expect it to be such a bad dog that would bite the sheep. So Li Laosi planned to kill and eat the dog, but the dog was injured and still managed to escape."

At this point, Er Ma's wife clicked her tongue and said, "I wonder what dog meat tastes like."

"Why are you so greedy?" Ji Erma frowned.

I felt she embarrassed me.

"Where did you see that? Why don't we catch it, kill it, and eat it?" Ji Dama also wanted to eat; he hadn't had any meat in a long time.

Old Mrs. Ji knows that these beasts have a keen sense of smell, so she won't dig up what they buried, will she?

"If you run into it, beat that dog to death."

When Ji Huaizhi was herding sheep, he would always prepare food for the dog. The dog would be overjoyed to see Ji Huaizhi, and would help him watch the sheep and sit down next to him, wagging its tail like a propeller.

Seeing that his injuries had almost healed, Ji Huaizhi stroked its long snout again: "Good dog."

Do you remember your former owner?

Ji Huaizhi had a smile on his lips; his expression made him look rather mature for a child.

Zhuang Niu's family hadn't been able to find him for so long, so they finally reported him missing to the police.

A grown man vanished into thin air, becoming an unsolved mystery.

On his way back after herding sheep, Ji Huaizhi encountered Li Laosi and Ji Dama talking.

It seemed the other party had slipped something into Ji Dama's pocket.

When he saw his son, Ji Dama suddenly became a little excited.

She took everything out of her pockets and returned it to him.

Li Laosi's expression turned somewhat unfriendly, and he cursed, "What are you pretending for now? You've done plenty of this kind of business before!"

Ji Dama waved his hand and left: "Get lost, don't bother me."

After the man left, Li Laosi spat.

Upon seeing Ji Huaizhi, he flashed a lewd grin with his yellow teeth: "Sanwa's back from herding sheep?"

Has anyone visited your house recently?

“Uncle Li, I saw your dog when I was herding sheep.” Ji Huaizhi pointed in a direction.

"Really? That dog is still alive?" Li Laosi thought about going to check: "A beast is a beast, it actually dared to run away."

With a quick chuckle, he said, "You have a day off tomorrow, right? Uncle will bring you some dog meat, so open the door for me, okay?"

"I'm bringing you a bowl of dog meat, but don't tell anyone. You're eating it all by yourself."

After saying that, he walked in the direction Ji Huai pointed.

The sheep nearby bleated a few times, and Ji Huaizhi smiled and herded the sheep home.

The corn harvest at home is almost complete, and the Ji family has had a much easier time these past few days.

Ji Huaizhi took out Ultraman cards and played with them with his two cousins ​​on the stone mill.

When Er Ma's wife came back to cook, she saw him and said, "Sanwa, come and give me a hand."

"I'm not going."

"You brats, none of you are any good." He scolded her while she was cooking, and kept banging and tapping on the table.

Looking up and seeing Yu Man, he felt a surge of anger.

"Your family is really pampered, you all get away with it without doing any work and just eat for free." He dropped what he was holding and went over to vent his anger.

"You too, and your son too!" Er Ma's wife reached out to slap her, but felt a sharp pain on the back of her neck.

She touched it and found blood. When she pulled down one sleeve, she saw that there was a tear in her clothes.

"You son of a bitch, Ji Huaizhi, how dare you throw a knife at me? Are you trying to die?" She was furious.

If a knife were stuck in her neck, would she still want to live?

Ji Huaizhi held an Ultraman card between his index and middle fingers: "Wrong, Second Aunt, I'm using an Ultraman card."

His two cousins, who were much taller than him, lit up: "How did you do that?"

"Teach us quickly!"

Er Ma's wife got angry when she saw that her two sons weren't worried about her and even asked her to teach them.

He grabbed a rag and pressed it against her neck: "You're learning all sorts of nonsense. Have you even finished your homework?"

"Let's see if I tell on you when your dad comes back!"

My neck is a little sore. Why is Ji Huaizhi acting like a lunatic all day? I looked down at the Ultraman cards at my feet and my expression was a little ugly.

Second Aunt didn't have time to complain because news came before dinner that Li Laosi had been bitten to death by a dog.

"Dead?" Er Ma's wife was still shaken when she heard this.

"It was bitten to death alive. When it was rescued, it still had a breath left, but it died shortly after. Eat quickly, we still have to go help out tonight." Grandma Ji also felt sorry for it.

"It's terrifying, a bloody mess." Ji Dama felt a chill: "His neck had been bitten so many times."

"We were just talking together not long ago, how unpredictable life is."

Ji Dama then said to the three children:

"That dog has escaped and we haven't caught it yet. You three kids shouldn't go out for a while, and you shouldn't herd sheep either. Just cut grass instead."
