Chen Yunyun was quite surprised by the two children's answers, especially the older one's.

Da Wa is the one who has turned evil the most in the book, and her system shows that Da Wa's evil value is also higher than Niu Niu's.

Why is that the answer?

The situation was urgent, and Chen Yunyun didn't have time to think it through.

Seeing Zhang the hunter's appearance, Chen Yunyun couldn't help but put herself in his shoes.

If a close relative were to go missing, I don't know how anxious I would be...

Fine, I'll just treat her like a saint this once.

After putting the children to sleep, Chen Yunyun lay down and activated her dream-entering technique.

This is all she can do right now.

I tried many times, but I just couldn't get into Tiger's mother's dream. Maybe Tiger's mother wasn't asleep.

Chen Yunyun had no choice but to try her luck by entering Hu Zi's dream.

Fortunately, she got in easily.

This is a gray, flat area, with a foul-smelling wind blowing in from time to time.

What kind of dream is Tiger having?

Unable to stand the stench, Chen Yunyun moved her finger, and the wind stopped and the fog dissipated.

Tiger Boy was not far away, his head buried in the ground, repeatedly muttering, "Dad, help! It's so scary!"

Chen Yunyun stepped forward and kicked him.

Tiger cowered even more, pleading, "Please don't eat me! I have pork at home. I... I also have chestnuts, you can have them!"

"Please don't eat me and my mother, I beg you!"

Chen Yunyun's gaze fell on the chestnuts; weren't they the ones she bought from her family?

The child's speech was really strange, so Chen Yunyun scooped him up and said, "Hey, look carefully at who I am."

Tiger kept his eyes tightly shut, trembling under Chen Yunyun's care, his face pale with fear.

"If you don't say something, I'm going to beat you up!"

Tiger was taken aback. Why did those words sound so familiar?

I think I heard about it last time when he got beaten up by that damned Big Fist Mountain God...

As soon as Hu Zi opened his eyes, he met Chen Yunyun's ambiguous smile.

"W-how is it you?"

How come the Great Fist Mountain God looks like her?

Tiger was so startled that he forgot he was afraid.

"Tell me, what happened after you left?" Chen Yunyun asked with a serious expression.

Tiger couldn't help but recall everything that had happened that night.

In her dream, Chen Yunyun could read Hu Zi's thoughts and see the memories in his mind.

In the video, Tiger is peeling chestnuts and walking ahead.

A moment later, he turned around and saw a dark monster lying on his mother, sucking on something.

The stench was so strong that Tiger vomited.

The monster walked towards him, and Tiger saw its full appearance.

Four arms, eight legs, and an extra face growing on the monster's belly.

Tiger screamed, his pants soaked with fear...

The monster drew closer, its stench overwhelming, and its enormous tongue, dripping with pus and blood, loomed large in front of Tiger.

I guess they wanted to ingest something from him.

But the monster sucked for a long time and still couldn't suck anything out.

The monster roared loudly, turned into thick fog, and disappeared.

After recalling everything, Tiger vomited again.

Chen Yunyun also vomited along with him this time.

What was that thing? Ugh, it was disgusting! After vomiting, both of them looked pale.

In her memory, Chen Yunyun saw that Hu Zi's mother and Hu Zi were somewhere outside the village, down the mountain.

If you look for it now, you should be able to find it.

Chen Yunyun kicked Hu Zi out of his dream, "Wake up, wait for your father to come!"

She got dressed, lit a torch, and went out.

"Outside the village?"

Hunter Zhang shook his head. "Impossible, they won't leave the village."

Chen Yunyun didn't have time to explain so much to him, "What if they didn't go out on their own initiative?"

"Go find the person quickly, right next to the third big willow tree."

Zhang the hunter led his group away, leaving a few others standing there, some curiously approaching.

He asked Chen Yunyun, "How did you know about Zhijun's family?"

Chen Yunyun had a plan: "As soon as you left, I fell asleep and the mountain god appeared in my dream."

"They said the person was over there and told me to hurry and rescue them."

At this point, Chen Yunyun knelt on the snow with a devout expression, put her hands together, and bowed deeply towards the direction of the mountains.

"Thank you for the mountain god's protection!"

Seeing Chen Yunyun like this, the others could no longer stand and quickly knelt down, crying, "May the mountain god protect us, may our ancestors show their power..."

Chen Yunyun smiled. Sure enough, only magic can defeat magic!

She thought she had fully grasped the essential skills for living in Xujia Village.

A short while later, a commotion came from outside the village; someone had indeed returned.

As the torches drew closer, those with sharp eyes immediately spotted Tiger's mother in Zhang the hunter's arms, and Tiger on the back of the man next to him.

Those who had stayed behind all instinctively looked at Chen Yunyun.

My goodness, that's so accurate!

They actually found it!

It really is the protection of the mountain god!

Those people knelt down again and kowtowed several times.

As Zhang the hunter passed by Chen Yunyun, he looked hurried but nodded to her.

Once the person was found, the villagers dispersed.

After returning home and lying in her warm bed, Chen Yunyun was not sleepy at all.

What is that monster?

What did it suck from Tiger's mother's head?

Chen Yunyun slept very restlessly, barely sleeping all night, and when she woke up the next day, there was a noticeable bruise under her eye.

The eldest child brought her some sweet soup. "Mother, don't worry, you've done your best."

"Thank you, Arun."

Chen Yunyun took the sweet soup. The boiling water had been deliberately cooled down before being served, and the temperature was just right when she drank it.

After drinking the sweet syrup, Chen Yunyun felt much better.

She went to the woodshed and took the initiative to ask the system.

What is that monster?

The system's cold voice replied, "Host, accept the mission?"

Chen Yunyun then realized that the system had already issued a task last night, but she was dreaming at the time and did not notice it.

Take a look at the task information.

[Side Quest: Defeat the Beast. Success rewards 200 points; failure deducts 100 points.]

This is the first time the system has issued a side quest.

Chen Yunyun thought for a moment and then chose to accept the call.

That monster can enter the village and kidnap Tiger's mother and Tiger. Who knows, one day it might take her child too.

Chen Yunyun was really worried about leaving such a big safety hazard, so she thought it would be better to eliminate it as soon as possible so that she could live a more peaceful life.

"What is this strange beast? Is it very powerful?"

A small booklet floated out from the void, and Chen Yunyun took it and opened it.

The Chimei, a mythical beast, exists as a vessel of resentment. Its true form grows by absorbing souls; it is an evil creature.

Absorbing souls?

Then last night, didn't Tiger's mother...?

Wait, why wasn't Tiger successfully absorbed?

[Host, you gave Tiger a Rejuvenation Pill. That pill was refined by an ancient immortal master and contains pure immortal power, making it impervious to all evil.]

"I see."

Chen Yunyun turned off the system panel and had just come out of the woodshed when there was a knock on the door.

Chen Yunyun felt that her front door had endured an unusual amount of stress these past two days...
