Chen Hong kept looking and sensed sothing was wrong. The creature on the ground, despite resembling a weasel, didn’t look like a weasel at all, from its fur to its finer features.
Instead, it looked exactly like sothing she had seen while shopping in town, which could be made into a coat. The only difference was the color of the fur. That creature was called... mink, yes, mink!
She pointed at Little Black on the ground and said, "This... this thing... It’s not a weasel, it’s a black mink... It... It is worth quite a lot of money..."
As soon as she finished speaking, Little Black, who was presud dead, suddenly opened its eyes and simultaneously scratched Mu Danian’s handso face with one paw, while the other scratched Chen Hong’s neck.
The mink’s claws were very sharp, and with a single swipe, red marks appeared on Mu Danian’s face and Chen Hong’s neck.
Both of them scread in agony. Mu Danian angrily reached out to grab Little Black, but accidentally, Little Black climbed onto his head.
Little Black darted its coal-black eyes around, furiously digging with its claws atop Mu Danian’s head.
Its actions were extrely lively.
Mu Danian only felt that his scalp was about to be ripped apart. His hair, which had been ticulously grood, was now a ss in Little Black’s paws.
"You little beast, I’m going to kill you!"
Mu Danian waved his arms frantically, determined to catch Little Black, but the nimble creature was bouncing around on his head.
Not only was Little Black retaliating for being kept inside all day, but it also decided to relieve itself atop Mu Danian’s head.
Mu Danian felt a warm, wet sensation on his head, followed by a stench of urine.
"Damn, the little beast peed on my head..."
"Beat it to death, the little beast ruined my neck."
With burning eyes, Chen Hong grabbed so firewood from the ground and threw it at Mu Danian, intended for Little Black, but missed and fell due to inertia instead.
Her body slamd heavily onto the dirt blocks of the decrepit house, scraping the skin off her elbow, particularly hurting her stomach terribly, making Chen Hong unable to utter a word. The money pouch from her pocket had sohow gotten knocked out and lay not far from Little Black.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Little Black grabbed the money pouch and sped off.
Leaving Chen Hong alone there, wailing about her pain and money being stolen, altogether in a pitiful state...
Once out of the run-down house, Little Black regained its freedom. By now, dusk was settling as the pouch-carrying Little Black initially headed towards Shuangshuang’s house.
But for so unknown reason, it suddenly changed direction, heading towards Niuwei Mountain and quickly disappearing down the country roads of Er Gui Village.
Everybody in the third branch, except for Mu Dashan, was out looking for Little Black. They were loudly calling for it throughout the village, asking the passing people, but no one had seen Little Black.
Little Black was indeed quite unique; if anyone saw it, they wouldn’t forget.
"Shuangshuang, what shall we do? If Little Black is gone, Little Zhi will cry her heart out."
Yu Si Niang was on the verge of tears as she kept stomping her feet anxiously on the spot.
Mu Shuangshuang’s mind was completely blank at the mont; she was analyzing who might have taken Little Black, quickly forming relationship maps in her head.
After pondering several tis, Mu Danian seed the most suspicious.
Because yesterday he was watching Little Zhi all the ti. It was a misunderstanding; Mu Danian’s target was not Little Zhi at all, but rather Little Black in Little Zhi’s arms.
"Fengzi, I know where Little Black is!"
Mu Shuangshuang suddenly shouted towards Lu Yuanfeng, who sprinted towards her.
With just a glance exchanged between them, their thoughts were understood.
"Mother, take the others ho first; Fengzi and I are going to rescue Little Black."
"Sister, Little Zhi wants to go too." Little Zhi, standing beside Mu Shuangshuang, wiped the tears from her eyes.
"Be good, Little Zhi; sister will be back soon. Go ho and wait for sister’s good news."
After speaking, Mu Shuangshuang pulled Lu Yuanfeng along.
Every mont lost ant greater danger for Little Black.
She rembered when she had stolen Mu Danian and Chen Hong’s clothes from the village’s abandoned house; if Mu Danian was indeed responsible, the two would definitely be there.
Her fists clenched unconsciously as she led Lu Yuanfeng to the abandoned house’s entrance, with Lu Yuanfeng climbing onto the roof in no ti while Mu Shuangshuang quietly sneaked inside.
At that mont, Chen Hong was still wailing about her Silver, and Mu Danian was cleaning his filthy self.
Suddenly, a thin figure rushed in through the house door, and when Chen saw who it was, she was kicked to the ground.
Her back slamd hard against the ground, and Mu Shuangshuang stepped on Chen Hong’s chest.
"Speak, where did my Little Black go?"
Chen Hong was too shocked to speak, even forgetting to shed tears.
Mu Danian wasn’t much different; upon seeing Mu Shuangshuang, he instinctively tried to escape, but Lu Yuanfeng jumped down from the hole in the roof and landed in front of him.
Before Shuangshuang entered, Lu Yuanfeng had already checked, but Little Black wasn’t there.
"Speak, where is Little Black?" Lu Yuanfeng extended his hand, blocking Mu Danian’s way with a glare that sent a frostbitten killing intent directly toward Mu Danian.
Mu Danian was trembling in fear, yet his stubbornness and clever mind held him up.
He would never admit it!
"What Little Black, Fengzi, what are you doing? You want to bully people, right! Do you think Mu Danian is easy to bully? I tell you, Mu Danian isn’t soone to be ssed with. If you dare provoke , it won’t end well for you."
Lu Yuanfeng imdiately grabbed Mu Danian by the neck. While he wouldn’t hit a woman, he’d never promised not to hit a man.
He lifted Mu Dazhong by the neck.
Within monts, Mu Dazhong’s face turned red from strangulation, then purple, and after a while, he shook his legs desperately like a dying duck.
Chen Hong was dumbfounded, crying and screaming in terror.
"I... It’s nothing to do with ; it was Mu Danian; he was the one who captured that beast."
"You’re the beast, where did Little Black go, did you eat it?" Mu Shuangshuang roared.
Mu Danian struggled to speak.
"Let... ... go."
Lu Yuanfeng loosened his grip, and Mu Danian fell directly to the floor.
He had lost count of how many tis he had suffered like this, aching as though his body was falling apart, and upon hitting the ground, Mu Danian tried to escape yet again but was caught by Lu Yuanfeng.
"You... You have the guts to kill ; otherwise, I won’t hand over that little beast."
"Fengzi, beat him to death! Damn it, I’ll see today whether it’s their mouths that are hard or my shoe soles!"
