Following Qiao Dongzi's advice, Yang Yang went to the capital to find Liu Lao Er.
As for Qiao Dongzi, he stayed outside the courtyard gate and did not disturb Mu Run and the two children's rest, thinking that he would go over to explain early the next morning.
Mu Run sat in his room, unable to sleep for half the night, filled with anxiety.
This man named Qiao Dongzi knows her. He doesn't seem to have any ill intentions, but can she trust him?
Could it be that they're after her two children too?
Why?
Could it be that my child has a special status?
A sudden meow rang out.
Mu Run looked in the direction of the sound and saw a pure white cat crouching by the window that had been opened at some point.
When it saw her looking at it, it even scratched its ear with its paw.
"What an adorable kitten." Mu Run, who loves animals, couldn't help but smile. "Meow~"
The little white cat looked at her. "Huh? Don't you recognize me?"
The cat spoke like a human!
"Huh?" Mu Run thought he was hallucinating. "The cat is talking? How is that possible?"
"I am not a cat, I am a mountain beast," the little white cat said again.
Now Mu Run could no longer deny that it could indeed speak human language.
"Mountain beast, does that mean mountain god?" Mu Run asked. Since soul transmigration is possible, the existence of a mountain god is not incomprehensible.
"Hmm." The little white cat nodded, looking at her. "Is this body working well?"
Mu Run was speechless...
It turns out that this mountain beast's name is Cha Bao, and it knows its owner, even the owner gave it its name. In order to save its owner, it used a soul-attachment technique, causing its soul to attach itself to a body that was compatible with its owner's birth chart but had a short lifespan.
Throughout the process, it lost too much spiritual energy and eventually fell into a deep sleep. Now that it has just woken up, it has come looking for her by following her scent.
"Tea Master, since you possess supernatural powers, can you take me and the children away from here?"
"Leave here?"
"Yes, I've run into some trouble. I'd like to take the children to a safe place to take shelter."
"If it weren't for the fact that my guardian mountain is occupied by ferocious beasts, taking you there would be the safest option." Cha Bao stretched, its cute round face, long limbs, and furry paws making you want to hug it and pet it!
"But there's no one where I live, and humans are social creatures, so you probably won't like it too much."
"Right now I just want to find a place where there's no one."
"Meow~ There's a place that should be suitable. Shall I take you and the two kids there?"
"Where?" Mu Run looked at Cha Bao.
...
The next morning, Qiao Dongzi knocked on the door.
The person who opened the door was a young girl with a leg disability, who was also one of the people who disposed of the body last night.
Qiao Dongzi was slightly taken aback, but then, thinking of Mu Run inside, he immediately understood who had killed Huang Chengsi's Dark Raven.
In this county, she's probably the only one capable of killing him.
"Who are you? Oh, the one who helped us load the truck yesterday."
"My name is Qiao Dongzi. To my shame, it was my brother who helped me yesterday. He has something to do and is not here for the time being. May I meet your wife?" Qiao Dongzi asked very politely.
Qiao Dongzi was quite handsome. He usually looked a bit roguish, but when he became refined, he seemed like a completely different person—a gentleman with a charming and elegant demeanor. It was hard for anyone to feel wary of him.
"What do you want with my wife?" Yao Yao asked.
“I used to work for the Grand Commandant’s office, and I know your wife.”
Upon hearing the words "Grand Commandant's Mansion," Yao Yao became excited. "Young Master Qiao, do you know Qiao Yu? She's my older sister."
