Beside them, Pan Lan exclaimed in surprise, "Lai Zi, this ox is so intelligent! Where did you get it?"
He had never encountered such a spirited ox before. If he didn't have no land at home and didn't need it, he would have bought it.
“I bought it in town. Xiao Liu does have some intelligence,” Lai Zi explained. “Maybe he’s been seeing a lot of people lately and has absorbed some of their energy, which has made him more perceptive.”
“I see,” Pan Lan said thoughtfully, “Since it has a spirit, it won’t do this for no reason. I’ve heard that cow tears can open the eyes of the spirits, so maybe cows can see things that we can’t.”
He lowered his voice, leaned forward cautiously, and asked tentatively, "Is there something unclean up ahead?"
God knows, he was most afraid of ghosts and spirits and other such nonsense. Because of this, he would avoid going out at night if he could, and if he absolutely had to, he would carry a few talismans with him. Even normally, he would carry one to calm his nerves.
"That's bullshit," Niu Ping punched Pan Lan. "In broad daylight, there aren't that many unclean things around."
He's just making a fuss here, making everyone tense even though there's nothing wrong.
“At the village entrance,” Huang Xiaosan squinted and looked towards the locust tree, “it looks like there’s someone there.”
After observing for a while, he spoke again with certainty, "There's someone at the village entrance, hiding behind the locust tree."
"Why are you hiding behind the tree?" Huang Lao Er asked, puzzled. "To cool off? It's not hot here."
“Playing tricks,” Pan Lan said angrily. “Is that really how it is? They suddenly appear to scare us when we pass by. Damn it, I hate these tricksters more than anything in my life.”
As he spoke, he looked at Inspector Niu ingratiatingly, "Boss, you guys go down and take a look, I'll wait in the car."
"Coward," Niu Ping couldn't help but kick him, "It's one thing to be afraid of ghosts, but you're afraid of people too. Can't you be any more dignified?"
He didn't know what to say.
Despite being such a coward, I've never seen his hand tremble when he grabs someone; he's ruthless more than anyone else when he strikes.
"It's not that I didn't bring a talisman," Pan Lan touched her nose, somewhat embarrassed, "otherwise, this wouldn't have happened."
He always carries talismans with him when he goes out, but he felt that today was a special day for his brother, so he was carrying some bad luck with him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have let others take the lead; he would have rushed up on his own.
“Those people,” Lai Zi looked at the tree roots, “are from the Huang clan chief’s family. What do they want?”
That old man is definitely up to no good.
“We’ll find out when we get there,” Huang Lao Er said. “There are so many of us, we don’t need to be afraid of them.”
No sooner had Huang Lao Er finished speaking than he saw two disheveled women running toward the oxcart.
"What's going on here?" Huang Xiaosan asked the two of them, puzzled. "What are the clan chief's Qini and Third Sister-in-law up to?"
Running towards a group of men like that is just too shameless.
If people find out, they'll think I'm deliberately taking advantage of them.
With that thought in mind, Huang Xiaosan immediately turned his face away, refusing to look at the two running people.
"This is... a honey trap?" Inspector Niu smiled with interest. "Lai Zi, Huangjiakou is truly a place where hidden talents abound."
In such a short time, our group had only gone through the motions, and we had already been tricked.
“Boss,” Lai Zi knew all this too, and a chill ran down his spine. “Leave this to me. You watch closely, I’ll make them lose more than they gain.”
After Lai Zi finished speaking, he turned to Xiao Liu and said, "Xiao Liu, speed up and ram forward!"
