Chapter 27 Unwilling to Believe Speculations
"Ding! Gain growth energy +1!"

"Ding! Gain growth energy +1!"

"Ding! Gain growth energy +1!"

……

“Ding! Growth energy is full, automatically upgrading from LV1 to LV2, rewarding physical fitness +1!”

The next morning, just as Wang Ping'an was drinking milk in big gulps and preparing to lie in his mother's arms to practice the "Purple Qi Sutra" after he was full, a mechanical and cold voice sounded in his mind.

Subsequently.

Wang Ping'an's eyes suddenly lit up, his mind moved, and when he silently said "system", a light curtain immediately appeared in front of him.

Gongfa: Purple Qi Sutra [Introduction]

Looking at the series of data on the screen in front of him, Wang Pingan took a deep breath and suppressed the excitement in his heart. The thirty-eight merit points were the result of him driving the Black Cat Detective to find a suitable granary yesterday.

The merit is hard-earned by hunting down one mouse after another.

Subsequently.

Wang Ping'an exhaled heavily, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and moved his eyes over his talents, skills, and techniques. Looking at the additional golden '+' signs at the back, all of them met the upgrade conditions.

Decide to upgrade those three talents, skills or techniques first!

First of all.

The Purple Qi Sutra must be upgraded. Every time he practices it, it can strengthen his physique and allow him to safely pass through the dangerous infancy.

"Ding! You consume 10 points of merit to upgrade the skill: Purple Qi Sutra, entry level → proficient!"

Second.

Wang Ping'an thought for a while and decided to upgrade his skill: animal taming. This was related to him driving the black cat and hunting mice to gain merit.

"Ding! You spend 10 points of merit to upgrade your skill: Taming Beast, Beginner → Proficient!"

At last.

Wang Ping'an thought for a long time, considering upgrading his talent: crisis sensing. It was because he was so afraid of death that he finally got another life. He didn't ask for great wealth, but at least to fulfill the dreams of his parents and family.

Live a life in peace!
But this strange world is even more dangerous than his ancient life, and is full of demons and monsters.

Even the accomplished Taoist master Xuanqing would misunderstand him as the reincarnation of a great man, and maybe demons would misunderstand him as well.

Treat him like a delicacy!
Talent: Crisis Sense, able to sense dangers before they happen like a spider.

"Ding! You consume 10 points of merit to upgrade your talent: Crisis Sense, entry-level → proficient!"

One after another, mechanical and cold voices rang in his mind. Wang Ping'an exhaled heavily, and a hint of happiness appeared on his face.

Just as he was about to lie in his mother's arms, he practiced the "Purple Qi Sutra" while using the skills: Pet Eyes and Skill: Taming to drive the black cat to catch the head, find a granary again, and hunt mice.

I vaguely saw a figure!
It was Xiaocao who had just come to their house yesterday. He changed into a relatively clean set of clothes, which were his mother's childhood clothes. Yesterday, his grandmother hid them under a bamboo basket and gave them to Zhou Jinju. In addition to the clothes, there were also a few kilograms of food. For this matter, Zhou Jinju went back and forth, wanting to refuse their kindness, but was finally persuaded by his grandparents and his mother.

I saw Xiaocao happily carrying the bamboo basket, looking at the clothes from time to time, as if he liked them very much. He jumped and skipped towards the forest to pick some wild vegetables.

This is what Xiaocao often does. Although she is not very old, due to family reasons, she has become sensible very early and often does things within her ability.

Picking wild vegetables is one of the most basic things!

Wang Ping'an quickly withdrew his gaze and was about to drive the Black Cat Detective to continue looking for the granary. After all, it was not interesting to watch a little girl picking wild vegetables in the mountains. Suddenly, he saw someone following Xiaocao out of the corner of his eye.

It's a middle-aged man!
He was holding something in his hand and looked sneaky. You could tell at a glance that it was not a good thing.

"Is he Xiaocao's uncle?"

Wang Ping'an's face changed. After his grandfather's identification yesterday, he recognized at a glance who the villager following Xiaocao was.

I never thought that Zeng Huihui was following Xiaocao secretly.

'He was sneaking behind Xiaocao, and seemed to be preparing to go up the mountain with her. What exactly did he want to do?'

Thousands of distracting thoughts emerged in Wang Ping'an's mind. When he saw that Zeng Hui was holding a hoe, all those countless thoughts were replaced by a guess that he himself was unwilling to believe.

"That shouldn't be the case. After all, Xiaocao is his niece. How could he do something worse than an animal?"

Wang Ping'an still didn't want to believe it. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration came to his mind, and he thought thoughtfully: "Could it be for the fields?"

He did not forget what his grandfather said when Zhou Jinju was driven out of the Zeng family by the Zeng family as a jinx.

It was their village chief who stepped in and not only arranged a thatched house for her to live in, but also forcibly took away a few acres of thin land from the Zeng family and gave it to Zhou Jinju.

Relying on a few acres of thin land, Zhou Jinju was able to support her and her daughter.

For these few acres of thin land, the Zeng family had caused Zhou Jinju a lot of trouble.

Given Zeng Hui's character, it would not be impossible for him to kill Xiaocao and drive Zhou Jinju away.

Wang Ping'an had no intention of continuing to look for the granary. He hunted mice to gain merit, drove the black cat to catch the head, and followed Zeng Hui secretly.

I hope that the speculations just now are all wrong. If they are true, then it is time for him to take action.

A sunny hillside.

“So many wild vegetables!”

Xiaocao, who was carrying a bamboo basket, suddenly brightened up his eyes, walked over briskly, squatted down, and picked wild vegetables carefully.

Zeng Hui gradually approached until he was behind Xiao Cao without making any sound. He raised his hoe and said to himself:

"Don't blame me, you little girl. Blame your mother. Who let this unlucky person occupy our Zeng family's land and refuse to leave? When you go to the King of Hell, remember to file a complaint against your mother!"

Xiao Cao, who was picking wild vegetables, suddenly felt a shadow blocking her sight. She turned her head subconsciously and saw Zeng Hui raising a hoe and smashing it at her. She panicked and said in panic, motionless:
"Uncle, uncle, what are you doing?"

"Didn't you say you missed your dad? I'll take you to be with your dad right now!"

Zeng Hui grinned.
