Chapter 61
Mr. Wang does not seem to be the local headman, because this is just a small village. Since the township officials do not come here, the local big families are self-governing. The Wang family is such a family.
Su Xuan and the others were dragged into the Wang family's house and thrown into the hall. The servants of the Wang family hurried to the back to call Master Wang, while Su Xuan and the others glared at them.
Su Xuan: "Woo woo woo...Ah!"
Which of you is in which body?
Little black dog: “…Woof!”
The little flower dog barked awkwardly: "Woof woof woof..."
The little yellow dog looked pitiful: "Woo woo woo..."
The little beggar lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Su, are you in the bodies of these four puppies?"
Okay, it’s confirmed, the little beggar is Ye Yun without a doubt.
The next second, Ye Yun was kicked to the ground by a villager!
The four dogs immediately looked at the villager coldly.
The villager was the one with the cross-eyes from before. He put his hands on his hips and said fiercely, "What are you whispering about! Just wait quietly for Master Wang to come out and do justice!"
A mole between his eyebrows said sarcastically, "Is he crazy? He's actually talking to four dogs!"
These two people seem to be brothers. Not only do they look alike, but they also always sing in unison.
Ye Yun's back hurt from being kicked, and he hissed. He wanted to rub his back, but seeing that Cross-Eyes was about to kick him again with a dark face, Ye Yun quickly withdrew his hand, feeling a little angry.
After all, the situation is special and it is not the time to worry about these things. Ye Yun glanced at the four puppies and signaled with his eyes: Don't worry about these villagers for now, they obviously came to the wrong place. What should we do next?
Su Xuan: "Ah...Woo!"
Where is Yan Ningan? Yan Ningan came out and surrendered!
The little flower dog lay down, with its ears drooping, and raised a paw miserably.
Wow, it turns out Yan Ning'an is in this little flower dog's body!
Su Xuan glanced at the remaining little black dog and little yellow dog with his keen eyes, trying to determine which one was which.
The little black dog looked at him for a while, then came over and licked his ears.
Su Xuan: “!!!”
The other three dogs looked at them with condemnation.
Su Xuan shrank his neck and embarrassedly kicked the little black dog with his hind legs. The little black dog shook its ears and wagged its tail.
Now it is confirmed that there are two dogs left, the little black dog is Gu Shuo, and the little yellow dog is Dad Lu Tao.
The question is, what situation are they facing now and how can they get back to the correct crossing route.
Yan Ningan thought for a moment, then raised his head and said to them with a determined look, "Woo woo woo... Ao woo woo... Ao woo woo woo!"
Su Xuan, Gu Shuo, Lu Tao, and Ye Yun: "......???"
I don’t understand!!
The four dogs and one person immediately collapsed. It would have been fine if the action had gone terribly wrong, but now even language communication was blocked. God was killing them!
At this moment, several figures walked into the living room from behind.
The leader was probably Mr. Wang. He was wearing a royal blue brocade robe with jingling pendants around his waist. His lavish attire and a hint of arrogance in his eyes formed a great contrast with the villagers below.
As soon as he saw him, the cross-eyed man with the mole immediately put on a flattering smile: "Hey, Master Wang, you're here!"
The villagers also quickly greeted him and were very flattering.
Before Su Xuan and the others could take a closer look at Mr. Wang, their attention was attracted by the person who appeared in the hall right behind him.
The man was wearing a simple black robe, with long hair standing up. His body was as slender as a bamboo and his appearance was extremely handsome, but his eyebrows and eyes were cold as if there was a frost.
He appeared with his brows lowered, and the villagers below gasped - it seemed that this was the first time they saw this person next to Master Wang, and probably the first time they saw such a handsome man. They couldn't help but stare in amazement for a moment.
When the man arrived in the hall, he raised his eyes slightly and glanced at the four dogs and the man indifferently. His gaze paused for a second on Ye Yun who was staring at him blankly, then moved away.
After Si Gou came to his senses, he was cheered up and surprised - it was Zong Ning!
Zong Ning actually showed up here, didn't they come to the wrong place?!
Who was the caster of the spell? What did he want them to do after bringing them here?
Just as these questions popped up in his mind, a third person slowly walked out behind Zong Ning.
The man was exactly the opposite of Zong Ning who was dressed in black. He was wearing white clothes and had a short sword at his waist.
He wasn't as handsome as Zong Ning, but he had a wicked aura to him, with a playful smile on his lips. When he glanced down, several women blushed.
When the ladies blushed, he narrowed his eyes, smiled even more, and said lazily, "Aning, this place is really nice, isn't it?"
Master Wang changed his arrogant expression when facing the villagers and laughed heartily. "That's right, don't underestimate this place, it's a good place for cultivation. Why don't you stay here for a while? I, Wang Xi, will treat you well!"
"Hahaha, Master Wang is generous. That sounds really good," the man in white laughed. He walked forward, gently put his hand on Zong Ning's shoulder, and said with a smile, "Aning, what do you think?"
Zong Ning frowned slightly, brushed his hand away, and said coldly: "Let's talk about it later."
The man in white didn't care. He put his hands behind his back and said with a smile, "Okay, then let Aning make the decision. Anyway, I'm fine with either."
Mr. Wang was dissatisfied, and the corners of his mouth immediately drooped, but he didn't dare to do it too obviously - after all, he was the one who wanted to beg these two to stay.
Seeing that Master Wang was being so cautious with Zong Ning and the man in white, the villagers below became curious and asked tentatively with cross-eyed eyes, "Master Wang, who are these two..."
Mr. Wang's expression became stern, and he said solemnly, "They are immortals who have traveled far and wide. They came here to rest for a while, so I have the honor of inviting them to stay at my mansion. From now on, you should all show respect to them when you see them!"
It’s actually an immortal! ?
The villagers were shocked.
They had never seen an immortal before. They had only heard of some gods and goddesses in stories passed down orally. They had never imagined that the two young men standing beside Master Wang were the legendary immortals?!
Since he is an immortal, he must have some magical powers. No wonder, no wonder Mr. Wang mentioned "cultivation" just now. So that's it!
The villagers' legs trembled and they all knelt down, praising the immortal's wisdom. The scene was extremely exaggerated.
Mr. Wang was very satisfied, and the man in white was still smiling like a fox as usual, but Zong Ning was already showing a little impatience.
Su Xuan and the others were shocked below.
I didn't expect that Zong Ning was so coquettish more than a thousand years ago, and even resorted to such tricks.
Also, who is the man in white next to him?
Could this be the wizard who cast the spell?
That doesn't seem right either.
After Su Xuan and the others' souls entered the bodies of these dogs, they clearly felt that their spiritual power was gone, but even though the spiritual power was gone, their perception was still there.
——Neither Zong Ning nor the man in white had any spiritual energy.
Needless to say, Zong Ning has always been able to completely absorb spiritual power, regardless of whether he was entangled in the spell at this time.
But what about the man in white?
No matter how powerful a sorcerer is, he cannot completely restrain his spiritual power. He cannot be a sorcerer.
Being able to travel with Zong Ning and having such a close relationship with him that he can call him "Aning", is he an ordinary human being, or... a powerful monster?
Su Xuan was shocked and suddenly thought of something. He exchanged glances with the others.
Apparently, even Ye Yun had thought of this—
The ancestor of their family, the one who caused a big commotion on the set, had an encounter with Zong Ning more than a thousand years ago!
During the interrogation, the heeled creature also confessed that their ancestors had been on good terms with Zong Ning and traveled with him for several years before being killed by him.
The four dogs and one man all looked at the man in white, and for a moment their bodies tensed up as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
——No matter how much that idiot described Zong Ning as a villain and their family's ancestor as innocent, Su Xuan and the others did not think that the "ancestor" was really that simple.
The talon not only eats humans, but also likes to induce negative emotions in living creatures and use them as food. The powerful talon's favorite thing to do is to spread plague and indulge in human fear and despair!
If this man in white is the first generation of tiptoe, does Zong Ning know his identity at this time?
No, Zong Ning must not know!
He hadn't noticed the identity of the person next to him at all. Was this the reason why their relationship changed so drastically later?!
At this moment, the man in white also turned his eyes and looked at the four dogs and one person.
The last five were quietly on edge.
The man in white smiled, pointed at them and asked, "What's going on?"
His question interrupted the villagers' kneeling. Master Wang also remembered the important matter at hand. He coughed lightly and asked the cross-eyed man, "Liu Dagou, what's going on?"
Cross-eyed quickly crawled forward, knelt on the ground, pointed at Ye Yun and Su Xuan and said, "Master Wang, so many chickens and ducks have been lost in the village these days. I said it was this little beggar who did it. Today, we, along with everyone else, caught him at the doorstep of Old Zhu's house!"
Villager Lao Zhu stepped forward again and said, "Master Wang, if Liu Dagou and the others hadn't shown up in time, this little beggar would have stolen our ducks!"
The villagers also protested:
"That's right. This little beggar came to our village last year. We've been losing chickens and ducks since last year. He definitely did it!"
"Master Wang, please make the decision for us!"
"This damned little beggar deserves to have his head chopped off!"
The noise gradually grew louder, and Su Xuan and the others felt that something was wrong. However, they had no spiritual power at the moment and were still in the dog's body, so they couldn't even control the situation.
It’s not that they can’t escape, but if they escape, Zong Ning will stay here. What should they do?
Just as he was in a dilemma, Ye Yun suddenly lunged forward, his eyes red as he cried out pitifully to Master Wang, "Master Wang, Master Wang, it's unfair. I just happened to pass by Old Zhu's house. I didn't mean to steal the ducks at all. I was misunderstood. It's unfair, Master Wang!"
Su Xuan and the others were stunned, and then looked at Ye Yun's helpless, pitiful, humble and weak appearance...
Damn, he is indeed an actor, his acting skills come naturally!
The little beggar Ye Yun's soul had transformed into was about seventeen or eighteen years old. He was already handsome, but with his red eyes, he looked up at Master Wang pitifully. Master Wang was immediately stunned: "Ah, this."
This actually works!
Su Xuan acted decisively and quickly lay on the ground, his ears drooping as he whimpered softly, "Wuwuwuwuwu..."
He flicked Gu Shuo with his tail, and Gu Shuo paused and lay down silently.
Yan Ning'an and Lu Tao were so frightened that they started to whine pitifully together. The four dogs and a little beggar seemed to have suffered a great injustice collectively!
Mr. Wang was confused, and the villagers were also confused.
What's with this sudden sadness?!
Cross-Eye was stunned. After coming to his senses, he got up from the ground with a fierce look on his face and strode over to grab Ye Yun's hair: "Hey, you little beggar——"
Ye Yun dodged and rolled directly under Master Wang's feet, shouting in panic: "Master Wang, help me! Master Wang, help me!"
Cross-eyed didn't dare rush to Master Wang and angrily said, "Master Wang, please get someone to pull him away. What if he hurts you?!"
Seeing that the servants were about to come forward, Ye Yun subconsciously dodged to the side again... and hugged Zong Ning's thigh!
Ye Yun raised his head and Zong Ning lowered his head.
"..." Zong Ning said indifferently, "Let go."
Su Xuan & Gu Shuo & Lu Tao & Yan Ning'an: "..."
Even in ancient times, dogs were still real dogs.
Ye Yun: “…”
He took a deep breath, suppressed his temper, and shouted to Master Wang in grievance: "Master Wang, look at this cross-eyed guy. How come he's even more excited than the person involved? No, even Old Zhu himself?! Is he a village yamen runner?! Is he so helpful, isn't he, a chivalrous man?!"
Mr. Wang and the villagers did not understand several words in this sentence, but this did not prevent them from understanding the meaning.
Obviously, this cross-eyed guy is not a very good person. With Ye Yun's simple provocation, they seemed to have really figured out some discord and all looked at the cross-eyed guy.
Cross-Eye panicked and pointed at Ye Yun's nose, yelling, "What are you talking about, you little bastard?! I, I just can't stand your sneaky behavior!"
"Is he usually this enthusiastic?!" Ye Yun shouted at the villagers at the top of his lungs, "We've known him for years, but we've never seen this cross-eyed guy stand up for others like this before. His character is totally out of character!"
Ye Yun didn't know whether the little beggar had stolen the chickens and ducks, but he would just criticize the little beggar whenever he found any loophole. No matter whether these people understood him or not, he couldn't really let them take him away and behead him!
He stretched his neck and shouted, "Did Brother Zhu see me stealing the duck with his own eyes?!"
Old Zhu hesitated for a moment and said, "No, that's not the case. It was Liu Dagou who called out outside the door, so I went out to take a look..."
——There is indeed a problem!
Ye Yun immediately shouted, "Could it be that this cross-eyed guy stole the chickens and ducks himself and framed me? No way, no way!"
At this moment, Su Xuan and the others couldn't help but praise Ye Yun in their hearts for being awesome. His idea of framing others was so clear at this time.
Cross-Eyes was visibly panicking. He felt the probing gazes of Master Wang and the villagers and sank to his knees. He bowed and explained himself, "Master Wang, you're being unfairly accused! I only took the trouble to help because I saw everyone was worried about that missing thief. How can you suspect me? Good intentions must not go unrewarded, Master Wang!"
The entire living room suddenly became chaotic. No one could understand the situation, and Mr. Wang also began to feel embarrassed.
Su Xuan and the others stretched their necks and barked a few more times to liven up the atmosphere. Master Wang had a headache so bad that he covered his forehead. Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore and shouted, "Alright, alright, stop arguing! First, drag this little beggar away and lock him up in the woodshed. And Liu Dagou and Lao Zhu are waiting at home. I'll send someone to your place to inquire about the situation and make a decision tomorrow!"
When Cross-Eyes heard that Master Wang actually suspected him, his face suddenly changed and he blurted out angrily: "We've caught him red-handed, why don't we just throw this little thief in the pond today!"
Ye Yun looked at Master Wang in shock: "Master Wang, he is actually questioning you!"
Cross-eyed: “?!”
Master Wang: “!!”
Ye Yun was about to cry: "Unlike me, I just think that you are really wise, Master. It doesn't matter if I stay in the woodshed for one night. I believe that you will definitely return my youth..."
These words sounded so soft and submissive.
Mr. Wang glared at the cross-eyed man, his chest heaving with anger.
He winked at the servant.
The servant came forward and helped Ye Yun up from the ground.
With this help, Mr. Wang's attitude was very clear. The cross-eyed man's face turned blue. He looked at Mr. Wang in disbelief, and became extremely panicked under the other's dark face.
Ye Yun patted his knees and said "thank you" obediently to the servant. Then he smiled sweetly at Mr. Wang and then smiled sweetly at Cross-Eyes.
Cross-eyed: "..."
Ahhhhh how did things turn out like this? It makes him so angry!!
"Did you feel comfortable hugging that thigh just now?" A cold voice suddenly came from behind Ye Yun's ear.
Ye Yun shuddered, turned his head, and saw Zong Ning with an indifferent expression.
Ye Yun: “…”
Ye Yun smiled at the servant and said, "Excuse me, I'll go to the woodshed with you right away."
The servant did not expect Ye Yun to be so polite, and quickly said, "Please follow me."
Being ignored, Zong Ning: "?!"
The man in white suddenly laughed out loud. Seeing Zong Ning's face darken, he didn't care. He pointed at Su Xuan and the others and asked with a smile, "Where are the four dogs?"
Ye Yun stopped walking, not expecting the man in white to actually bring Su Xuan and the others out alone. His face changed color slightly.
Mr. Wang waved his hand and said impatiently, "They are just four dogs. You can do whatever you want with them. Whoever wants to eat dog meat can take it back!"
When the villagers heard this, they asked, "Can we have more meat tonight?"
The next second it came crashing down.
"I want it, I want it!"
“I love dog meat the most!”
"I'm going home to stew dog meat for my mother. She's been sick for a long time and needs some nourishment!"
"Don't worry, your mother is as strong as an ox. My father needs to be supplemented. He can't even go to the fields!"
"Your father is already ninety-nine this year, only monsters can work in the fields at this age! Give me this dog, and my son will take care of it!"
"I want..."
"I want it!"
A group of people were pushing and shoving each other. Su Xuan saw that something was wrong, so he opened his mouth and bit the hand that was extended to him!
The man was frightened and quickly retracted his hand with a scream!
Su Xuan bared his teeth—who else wants to stew his dog meat?!
Gu Shuo dodged the outstretched hand and stared at the villagers with an icy gaze. The silent coldness made the villagers shiver and they did not dare to attack him for a moment.
...So Yan Ning'an and Lu Tao, who were both confused, were grabbed by the scruff of the neck and taken away.
Su Xuan came back to his senses: "Ahhhhhhh?!"
Dad! Yan Ningan!!
Lu Tao came back to his senses and was also stunned: "Ah...Ah?"
Ah...Ah Xuan?
Ye Yun saw Su Xuan trying to catch up, but Yan Ning'an and Lu Tao had already been kicked out by the villagers, so he couldn't catch up at all. He quickly rushed over and threw Su Xuan and Gu Shuo under him to protect them. He turned around and said to Master Wang pitifully, "Master Wang, I'm a beggar wandering around all day, and these puppies have always been with me. They are like family to me. Can they come into the woodshed with me..."
As he spoke, a tear fell.
Mr. Wang... Mr. Wang seems to be quite impressed by this.
He even hesitated and glanced outside the door, as if wondering whether he should chase the other two dogs back.
But in the end he coughed twice, waved his hand and said, "Go, go."
I'll be flexible this time.
After a while, Su Xuan, Gu Shuo and Ye Yun entered the woodshed and closed the door.
Su Xuan lay on the ground, pounding the ground with his claws.
What now?!
