Startled by Su Xingran's sudden opening of her eyes, He Ergu nearly dropped the bowl she was holding. Su Xingran immediately stood up, snatched the bowl from her hands, pushed He Ergu down onto a stool, and quickly took out silver needles from her spatial storage to prick her acupoints, stimulating her to open her mouth. Then she forced the medicine down He Ergu's throat. She smashed the bowl on the ground, and it shattered with a sound.
After completing this series of actions, Su Xingran was so tired that she was panting. While Old Lady Su and Zhao Xiaohua went out to call for help, she untied the rope on her legs and tied a fake knot. Since it was dark and the kerosene lamp was dim, the three of them did not notice anything unusual.
Aunt He screamed in fright at Su Xingran's series of actions. She knew what the medicine powder in the bowl of water was for, and she kept trying to vomit it out, but no matter what she did, the water mixed with the medicine had already been swallowed.
Old Mrs. Su and Zhao Xiaohua were also startled. They hadn't expected Su Xingran to wake up and even untie the ropes. They stared at Su Xingran in fear. Was she even human? No way. How could she, while unconscious, untie the ropes and even feed the medicine that Aunt He was going to give her to Aunt He instead?
He Ergu, who was still trying to induce vomiting by gagging, suddenly had a fierce glint in her eyes and a ferocious expression on her face. "Quickly grab this brat! You two adults and she's just a little kid, can't you two control her? Grab her now! If you don't teach this brat a lesson, I'm not He Ergu!"
When Su's mother and Zhao Xiaohua heard He Ergu's shout, they came to their senses and hurriedly tried to catch Su Xingran. Just as they reached Su Xingran, Su's father's voice came from the doorway.
"If you dare touch my daughter, I'll kill you!" Su's father's voice rang out behind Su's wife and Zhao Xiaohua. The two women froze instantly, turning their heads with difficulty. Su's father was holding a kerosene lamp in his hand, and the angry expression on his face looked somewhat terrifying in the dim yellow light.
Suddenly, Old Mrs. Su and Zhao Xiaohua collapsed to the ground, limp and weak. It was all over. The second son and his wife had also woken up. They sensed they were in for a world of trouble tonight.
"Mom and Dad, I'm fine, don't worry." This woman named Aunt He tried to feed me the water that contained medicine, but I gave it to her instead. She told the two people on the ground that after I drank this medicine, I would become mentally impaired and confused when I woke up.
The medicine that Aunt He gave me might make someone mentally impaired. I fed it to her, and once she reacts, we'll know if it really is a drug that makes people mentally impaired. I guess she's harmed many people using this method before; if she really becomes mentally impaired, it would be like ridding the world of a scourge.
From the moment Mr. and Mrs. Su entered, Aunt He knew the plan had failed. She knew, of course, what would happen if she took the medicine, which was why she panicked. But now she had no choice; she just wanted to figure out why the plan had failed before she sobered up.
You little brat, you're so clever. No wonder your grandma and aunt wanted to get rid of you, saying you were possessed by an evil spirit. Could it be that you really are possessed by an evil spirit? Otherwise, why would your grandma and aunt say you've become a completely different person?
Don't you know whether I'm an evil spirit or not? Aren't you a sorceress? Weren't you just performing a ritual to subdue and drive away the evil spirit? You know all this, so what's the point of asking me now? Su Xingran asked this on purpose. Doesn't this Aunt He consider herself a sorceress who understands ghosts and spirits? Then why do I need to ask her for an answer?
None of you drank the poisoned chicken soup, right? You pretended to be unconscious to lure us in, didn't you? You knew about the plan all along, so you wanted to trap us like turtles in a jar. Those two idiots just walked right into your trap, letting you catch them completely. When did you find out?
