The four "slacking off" group, who had finally been pulled out of the dark room, were sitting in the hall, panting and resting, when a small gust of wind rushed past them, followed by a large gust of wind with a protruding belly.
Commander Long smiled broadly, "Xiao Lian and Shuang get along very well and have a great time together!"
Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai subconsciously praised, "Madam is so energetic despite being heavily pregnant!"
Nianying scratched her head, feeling that they seemed to have overlooked something.
At the same time, the four people belatedly realized what was happening and jumped up, shouting, "Something's wrong! Chase after them!"
How could a pregnant woman about to give birth possibly chase someone at the speed of a 100-meter sprint? It's simply a fantasy!
Cheng Shuang heard the sound of gongs and drums coming from outside the Marshal's Mansion from afar, so she ran towards the source of the sound. Her good eyesight allowed her to clearly see Lin Zhengying and a woman hiding in the bushes. They said something, put on lion dance costumes, and rushed towards a group of children wearing red bibs.
The demonic infant was still a child. Once it acted on its instincts, it never considered the consequences of revealing itself. When it noticed Cheng Shuang stop and turn her back to 'her', a smug look appeared on its face. It tiptoed closer, about to teach this human a lesson, when the other party suddenly turned around and made a shushing gesture at 'her'.
Then he focused intently on the scene in the open space ahead.
'Miqilian' then noticed a lion dance in the open space, wagging its tail and entertaining a group of infant spirits. Initially, 'she' was somewhat interested, but upon turning her head, she saw Cheng Shuang gazing at the lion dance with even greater focus, even fascination, than 'she'. 'Miqilian' was instantly consumed by jealousy. What a big liar! Didn't he say he was only playing with 'her'?
Cheng Shuang: No, I didn't, don't talk nonsense!
Cheng Shuang was pondering how to attract Master Zheng Ying's attention and tell him that 'Mi Qilian' was possessed by a demonic infant when she felt a strong gust of wind behind her. The demonic infant suddenly turned on her and slapped her away.
Even though Cheng Shuang reacted quickly and dodged the vital spot in her back, her shoulder was still swept by the strong wind. Only after she rolled to the ground did she realize that her shoulder didn't hurt much.
The demonic infant showed no intention of harming her.
The little girl was a bit surprised, but was then helped up by the arriving Commander Long.
Despite his chubby appearance, Commander Long was surprisingly agile when anxious, like a large monkey. He helped Cheng Shuang up and asked with concern, "Little Sister, what happened? Are you hurt? Why was your sister-in-law chasing you and even hitting you? What happened to her?"
"Brother-in-law, can't you see? My sister has been possessed by a demonic infant!" Nianying said anxiously, stamping her foot as she arrived.
"Yes, Commander, we didn't lie to you!" All the way, Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai explained to Commander Long that Mi Qilian was in danger, but Commander Long didn't quite believe them. He even thought that they were colluding with their master to play a trick on him.
Now, Commander Long looked at Cheng Shuang hesitantly, trying to ask his sister's opinion.
This action hurt Nianying somewhat, and she complained with a hint of resentment, "Brother-in-law, that's my own sister, would I lie to you?! Why don't you go and pursue my sister!"
"Brother, sister-in-law is definitely acting strangely. Be careful, she's become a bit ruthless and doesn't recognize her own family!"
Cheng Shuang's words angered Nian Ying. She grabbed Cheng Shuang and angrily questioned, "Why did you say that about my sister?"
“Nianying, Shuangshuang’s worries are valid. Your sister is clearly possessed by a demonic infant. Have you forgotten that when we ran over, she slapped Shuangshuang?” Qiusheng stepped forward and spoke up.
"I know, I just don't like her stopping my brother-in-law from pursuing my sister. What if the demon baby takes my sister away?" Nianying retorted loudly, her voice filled with anxiety.
Commander Long was the most anxious person present. The woman in front of him and the child she was carrying were his closest relatives. How could he not be worried? He immediately yelled angrily at Nian Ying, "Stop arguing!" Then he looked at Cheng Shuang with concern and anxiety, "Xi Mei, are you hurt? The child in your sister-in-law's belly really is a demon baby..."
“I’m not injured! The one chasing me must be the Demon Infant. Master Zhengying is trying to catch it now. Big brother, you can’t help much if you go up there. You should quickly send Brother Qiusheng and Brother Wencai over to help.”
"Where are they?" Commander Long asked even more anxiously. He looked around and looked up to see a large lion in the distance, and could faintly hear the sounds of fighting.
Without saying a word, he took off running over.
Nianying glanced at Cheng Shuang, and seeing that Commander Long still cared about his sister, she immediately calmed down and hurriedly followed.
Cheng Shuang didn't need to argue with her about these things. After all, she wasn't Mi Qilian's real sister-in-law, and they weren't going to live together forever. There was no need to add to Long Dashuai's troubles with family matters.
The most urgent task is to complete the mission before Lam Ching-ying can expel and eliminate the demonic infant.
Cheng Shuang: Please call me the ruthless task machine, thank you!
When the group arrived, Lam Ching-ying and Auntie Zhe had already wrapped 'Miki Lian', who was sitting on the lion dance, with the lion dance skin. Lam Ching-ying then shouted to Chiu Sang and Man Choi, "Aren't you going to help!"
'Mikilian' struggled frantically, and Aunt Sugarcane kept trying to attack 'Mikilian's' big belly. If she were to be hit, given 'Mikilian's' current state,' she might very well die along with her unborn child.
Lin Zhengying tried his best to stop the demon baby and prevent it from escaping, keeping him extremely busy. He was hit by Aunt Zhe several times.
Cheng Shuang stared dumbfounded at this farce, not understanding why Aunt Zhe was so hostile towards Mi Qilian.
Qiu Sheng, Wen Cai, and Long Da Shuai all tried to pounce on her, but they all subconsciously hesitated to act too roughly because of Mi Qi Lian's big belly.
As soon as 'Mickey' saw someone else rushing over, she suddenly looked up and screamed.
Lam Ching-ying immediately shouted, "Oh no! It's summoning its servants!"
Cheng Shuang suddenly remembered the maid who was with Mi Qilian. Sure enough, within a few seconds, the woman, covered in sticky, wet droplets, kicked Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai, who were rushing towards 'Mi Qilian,' far away.
Seeing such a fierce woman, Commander Long instinctively wanted to stand in front of Mi Qilian, but unfortunately, Mi Qilian was not grateful and kicked him away as well. Then, her gaze was fixed on Cheng Shuang, and she gave the maid a wink.
The maid paused, her steps, which had been heading straight for Lin Zhengying and Aunt Zhe, quickly reversed, and she pounced on Cheng Shuang.
The girl sensed something was wrong and leaned back, trying to avoid the maid's sneak attack. But the maid wasn't going to attack her; instead, she grabbed her waist and quickly used her to block Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai's attack before turning and running away.
Cheng Shuang was not one to surrender easily. The young girl stretched out her finger and, in a particularly malicious move, poked the maid's eyes directly.
Caught off guard, the maid was poked squarely and immediately let out a wail as she was lifted up to be thrown to the ground.
At this moment, 'Michelle,' who was fiercely fighting with Lam Ching-ying, accidentally saw this scene, immediately blocked the attack, tilted her head and commanded in a sharp voice, "Don't fall!"
Lin Zhengying and Aunt Zhe exchanged a glance. Although they didn't understand why the demonic infant treated Cheng Shuang differently, it didn't mean they wouldn't seize the opportunity. They immediately called back Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai, who were chasing the maid, and prepared to capture the demonic infant together.
