"Bang!"
Realizing what was happening, Li Fan kicked Chen Zhixiu away.
"Pfft!" Chen Zhixiu spat out a mouthful of blood, her face turning even paler.
Li Fan stood up, straightened his clothes, and looked coldly at Chen Zhixiu: "Heh, overestimating yourself!"
Chen Zhixiu tried to get up, but due to the poison and injuries, she was unable to move an inch.
"Hmph, Xiu'er, I was once your father's fellow disciple. If you provoke me again, don't blame me for not even leaving you a whole corpse!"
Li Fan's words enraged Chen Zhixiu even more. She dug her fingers into the soil, her eyes filled with hatred: "My father treated you like family, why did you harm him!"
"I harmed him? No, no, no!" Li Fan shook his head with one finger and laughed out loud. "If anyone's to blame, it's you, Xiu'er!"
Li Fan burst into laughter: "Who's blaming you for blocking Lord Xiao's way?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Zhixiu's pupils constricted sharply: "Xiao Guangyuan? How did I stand in his way! He has already divorced me, we have nothing to do with each other anymore!"
“Yes!” Li Fan looked at Chen Zhixiu and said with a smile, “Lord Xiao originally did not want to kill you all, but it’s a pity that Madam Xiao found out about your existence, which forced Lord Xiao to take drastic measures against you.”
Chen Zhixiu looked at Li Fan incredulously: "He broke his promise back then! What crime have I committed? Is there no law in this world?!"
“Sleeves…” Li Fan drawled out, “If you have to blame someone, blame yourself for being just a commoner, powerless and without influence. What do you have to fight them with?”
“I didn’t want to hurt your parents. After all, your father and I are fellow disciples. Oh, by the way, your father lied to you. We’re not just fellow disciples who studied carpentry together. We’re known in the martial arts world as the Black and White Duo.”
Li Fan stroked his goatee: "I advised your father to submit to the imperial court and serve its people, but he refused and insisted on retiring from the martial world. Just in case, I had no choice but to poison your father as well."
Chen Zhixiu bit her lip hard, trying not to cry.
Having been given a second chance at life, she naturally knew that her parents were extraordinary, not only her parents, but also her brother and sister-in-law.
But they didn't say anything, and she wouldn't ask. After all, they were family, and she would always remember their kindness to her.
She always thought that since she had been given a second chance at life and had the upper hand, she could protect her family. But she never expected that her family would die because of her!
Her heart felt as if it had been crushed by a giant hand, and the pain made it hard for her to breathe.
"mother!"
"aunt!"
As voices rang out, Chen Zhixiu struggled to open her eyes. The tiny figure made her heart leap: "Tuantuan, hurry! Hurry!"
Xiao Tuantuan rushed to Chen Zhixiu, took out a pill from her bosom, and fed it to Chen Zhixiu: "Mother, it's alright, Tuantuan is here, you'll be fine..."
Her trembling voice betrayed her fear.
Chen Xingfeng and Chen Lingfeng stood in front of Chen Zhixiu, watching Li Fan warily.
Li Fan looked at the three children and laughed, "You really came uninvited. I was just about to come find you myself. This is perfect, it saves me the trouble of making this trip."
"By the way, don't even think about Chen Xiaoran and the other two coming to rescue you. They're probably too busy to help themselves right now, hahaha!"
Li Fan's words made Chen Xingfeng and the other two feel a sudden sinking feeling in their hearts.
Xiao Tuantuan quickly stood up and, without saying a word, threw a handful of sleeping pills at Li Fan!
"elder brother!"
Xiao Tuantuan shouted, and the two brothers, Chen Xingfeng and Chen Lingfeng, quickly helped Chen Zhixiu walk towards the carriage.
Xiao Tuantuan stayed behind to cover the rear.
"Damn it!" Li Fan shouted. He had actually underestimated these three children!
"Don't even think about leaving!"
Li Fan made a swift move, and just as Xiao Tuantuan was about to meet him, three black figures suddenly appeared around them and blocked Li Fan's palm strike!
Xiao Tuantuan, who was about to make a move, froze...
Is this what they call the secret guards?
"Tuantuan, let's go quickly!"
Xiao Tuantuan nodded quickly. After the three of them put Chen Zhixiu into the carriage, Chen Xingfeng drove the carriage and sped towards Chenjia Village.
Inside the carriage, Xiao Tuantuan looked at Chen Zhixiu, who had already fainted, her little face full of solemnity.
"How is it? Aunt's poison..." Chen Lingfeng asked in a low voice.
Xiao Tuantuan shook her head: "The antidote has been administered."
Chen Lingfeng breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good. It's good that you learned medicine from your grandmother and uncle and developed the antidote."
Xiao Tuantuan pursed her lips, feeling extremely fortunate.
She also saw the recipe for the antidote pill by chance, and seeing that the medicinal materials were very common, she tried to make some.
But I haven't had a chance to show it to my maternal uncle and grandmother yet, so I don't know if it will be of any use.
However, it seems that his antidote pills were successful this time.
As soon as we arrived at the village entrance, we saw the three Chen brothers.
"Father! Second Uncle! Third Uncle!"
"Father, eldest uncle, third uncle!"
Xiao Tuantuan lifted the curtain and looked at Chen Xiaoran and the other two. For some reason, her nose tingled with emotion: "Eldest Uncle, Second Uncle, Third Uncle..."
Chen Xiaoran walked over quickly, his fists clenched tightly as he looked at Chen Zhixiu, who was in a disheveled state inside the carriage.
"Sleeve..."
Chen Zhixiu slowly woke up and grabbed Chen Xiaoran's sleeve: "Save my parents..."
Chen Xiaoran's eyes turned cold, and he quickly said, "Yi Jun, Wen Xiu, you two go back right now!"
"Second Uncle, take me with you!" Xiao Tuantuan took a deep breath and climbed out of the carriage. "I have the antidote on me!"
Without asking any more questions, Chen Yijun grabbed Xiao Tuantuan and rushed out.
Chen Wenxiu used his lightness skill to quickly follow behind.
Xiao Tuantuan's mouth dropped open in shock. Good heavens, all three of her uncles know martial arts!
"Grandfather! Grandmother! Eldest aunt! Second aunt!"
Looking at the unconscious crowd, Xiao Tuantuan took their pulses with trembling hands, then took out a medicine bottle: "Second Uncle, Third Uncle, this is the antidote..."
"Wen Xiu!" Chen Yijun divided the antidote in two, and the two quickly fed it to Chen Luo and the others.
Xiao Tuantuan watched this scene in fear, and a string in her mind suddenly snapped.
"Soup Spoon, I know why my maternal grandfather and the others didn't go to pick up my mother after they found out she had been divorced in my previous life."
"Because they have already been killed by Xiao Guangyuan..."
"Yes, in my past life, the people Xiao Guangyuan sent poisoned my mother with a slow-acting poison and killed my maternal grandfather's family. He originally intended to let my mother die, but he wanted to climb higher in rank, so he thought of me. He could give me to that high-ranking official in exchange for her promotion and title, thus avoiding any future troubles. So he simply burned my mother alive..."
"Spoon, why do you think there are such despicable and vicious people in this world?"
A single tear fell from Xiao Tuantuan's eye...
"Heartbroken" and "heartbroken to death" are not enough to describe Xiao Tuantuan's hatred and sorrow at this moment.
At this moment, Xiao Tuantuan had no idea that the trading space had undergone earth-shattering changes!
The shape of a soup spoon gradually emerged, a large spoon lying horizontally in mid-air.
The next second, the spoon transformed into a baby. Looking at its own form, the spoon quickly reached out, and a tear appeared in its palm.
"Finally got it! Tears of sadness!"
