After Shen Hua left, she didn't go to the toilet, but quickly headed to the village chief's house.
She needed to go and see if the village chief was anything strange. There was a high chance that Shang Wenwen was with him, and she had to steal her away.
The village chief mentioned yesterday that the painting could be found soon.
"Wah wah wah".
"How do you take care of your child? He's crying like this. Hurry up and feed him. If my precious son goes hungry, I'll make you pay."
"Bad woman, bad woman, I'll hit you, I'll beat you to death."
"Doggy, be good, don't hit her. If you kill her, no one will cook for you."
"No, didn't Dad find me a beautiful wife? The dog will be taken care of."
Shen Hua stood gently on the roof and looked down, overhearing the conversation inside.
Inside sat the village chief, next to whom stood a woman holding a crying child, and next to her stood a man who was slightly taller than her.
He was hitting a woman with his hand, while Shen Hua was curious about the daughter-in-law she was talking about.
"You can only say these things at home, understand? You can't say them outside, or you'll lose your wife. Also, she's your stepmother, and that's your brother. If you kill her, who will cook for me and take care of your brother?"
"Anyway, I won't live much longer. Dad, where's my wife? I want to see her."
"Not now."
"No, I want to see, I just want to see."
In just a few short movements, Shen Hua could tell that this man had mental problems.
The woman didn't react at all after hearing their conversation.
It seems this village really is connected to demons. They all know that ordinary people have entered, so they don't pay attention to their conversations and aren't afraid that others might eavesdrop like she did.
Shen Hua noticed something was wrong and turned around to look, only to find that Xie Sichen had followed them and even dealt with a crow.
I've become careless; I'm really becoming less and less vigilant.
She gave Xie Sichen a thank-you look, without questioning why he had followed her, and continued looking inside.
Unable to resist his simple-minded son's pleading and pleas, the village had agreed to take him to meet his wife.
Shen Hua glanced at Xie Sichen again and gave him an invisibility talisman: "Don't tell anyone, or I'll beat you up."
He saw her draw the talisman last time, and this time she took out an invisibility talisman. Others might not be able to tell that her talisman was different, but Xie Sichen couldn't possibly not see it, so she gave him a small threat.
Xie Sichen nodded, indicating that he understood.
Shen Hua didn't look at him, stuck the talisman on her body, and followed behind the village chief.
Where they walked, in the backyard of his house, next to the well, the village chief touched something, and suddenly a cellar appeared.
The village chief led his mentally challenged son inside, followed closely by Shen Hua and Xie Sichen.
Inside, it looked dark, but after the village chief placed a bead, it lit up, and in a corner of the cellar, a person was tied up.
This person was Shang Wenwen. Her mouth was gagged and her hands and feet were tied, but when she looked at the village chief and his son, she was frighteningly cold.
The simple-minded son was frightened and quickly hid behind the village chief.
"Dad, your eyes look so fierce, I'm scared."
"Don't be afraid, son. Take a look and see if it looks good. If you don't like it, I'll get you a new one. As for being fierce, you'll be well-behaved after a few lessons."
The simple-minded son listened to the village chief's words, peeked out, and nodded, saying, "Dad, she's beautiful, my wife, my wife."
"It's just a woman, why are you so happy?"
