Chapter 28: Uncle Worse than a Beast
"Pfft!"
The sound of a sharp weapon cutting through flesh was heard, followed by Zeng Hui howling in pain. The hoe he had just raised above his head suddenly fell to the ground, and he said in panic, "Who, who is it? Come out now!"
Taking this opportunity, Xiaocao got up from the ground and fled away as fast as he could.
Ever since she was old enough to understand, she has been often insulted and bullied by people in the village when she goes out alone. Not only is her ability to withstand beatings first-rate, but even her running speed is far beyond the reach of her peers.
"Don't run!"
Zeng Hui was looking for who had hurt his wrist when he saw Xiao Cao get up and run towards home. He suddenly panicked. He originally wanted to kill Xiao Cao and throw him into the deep mountains and forests to let him be attacked by wild beasts.
Don't let others know that it was him who did it, so that even if they suspect him, there will be no evidence.
But if he lets the grass escape, he will definitely suffer the consequences.
Zhou Jinju's personality is such that although she may appear to be a coward who swallows her anger silently, once her sensitive spot is touched, she will definitely fight to the death.
The grass is her Achilles' heel!
How could Zeng Hui dare to let the grass escape? He endured the burning pain in his wrist, picked up the hoe that fell on the ground, and chased the fleeing grass. But before he had run a few steps, he saw a black shadow flash by in his peripheral vision.
"Pfft!"
Another sound of a sharp weapon cutting flesh was heard. Zeng Hui only felt a pain in his calf, and then he fell to the ground with a "thump".
Only then did he realize that there was a black cat beside him.
"Is it you, the beast?"
Seeing this scene, Zeng Hui had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and he remembered what his son had told him yesterday, that when their group was bullying Xiaocao, a black cat appeared, hurt them and protected Xiaocao.
If Wang Lin and Yuan Liang had not testified, he would have suspected that his little bastard was just trying to amuse him, so how could he say such outrageous things.
just.
Even with Wang Lin and Yuan Liang as testimonies, he still had some doubts.
After all, which cat can be that smart and powerful?
Unless it's a monster!
until……
This time he wanted to harm Xiaocao's life, but was hurt by the black cat. He let the black cat rescue Xiaocao, and the doubts in his heart were completely dispelled.
"Grandpa Village Chief, my uncle—no, that bad guy is right there, holding a hoe, and he obviously wants to kill me!"
Not long after, a childish voice sounded, and Zeng Hui's face changed drastically. He could not stay here any longer and had to hide. Otherwise, if the village chief found out, he would most likely suffer the consequences.
If he didn't know the village chief's character, he couldn't help but suspect whether the village chief had an improper relationship with Zhou Jinju.
otherwise.
Why would he be so nice to Zhou Jinju?
‘Want to leave? ’
Through the perspective of the Black Cat Detective, Wang Ping'an saw Zeng Hui with a ferocious face, enduring the pain in his calf, standing up, and trying to escape with a hoe, but then he once again drove the Black Cat Detective to attack Zeng Hui.
As the saying goes: Cut the grass at its roots. If Zeng Hui had not received a severe lesson this time and was allowed to run away, he might have done something unimaginable.
It is impossible for him to stay by Xiaocao's side all the time and protect her safety!
The next moment, the Black Cat Headhunter turned into a black shadow, and when Zeng Hui was completely unprepared, he slashed out with his sharp claws. Blood splattered on Zeng Hui's calf again, and he wailed in pain, and fell to the ground again. "It's Zeng Hui's voice!"
Cheng Yong smiled bitterly, doubting whether what Xiaocao said was true or not. After all, no matter what, Zeng Hui was her uncle. Even if he was very bad to her and her daughter, there was still the truth that even a tiger would not eat its own cubs.
How could it possibly harm Xiaocao's life!
just.
Zhou Jinju forcibly called him out of his home and said a lot of harsh words to him. He had no choice but to rush over with other strong villagers.
otherwise.
He didn't dare to hug her, fearing that Zhou Jinju might rush to Zeng Hui's house with a kitchen knife.
It's because Xiaocao is Zhou Jinju's Achilles' heel, and everyone in Hutougou knows it.
next second.
Zeng Hui's voice came from not far away, which made Cheng Yong's face change drastically. He did not dare to hesitate any longer, and hurriedly led the other villagers to speed up, and hurriedly said: "Go and have a look, maybe it's a wild animal that is harming Zeng Hui!"
This hillside is close to Hutougou and people often come and go. Usually, the most they see are small wild animals such as pheasants and rabbits.
But that doesn't mean there won't be large wild beasts and top predators around.
Not long after, when Cheng Yong arrived with a group of villagers, they saw Zeng Hui covered in blood. When he wanted to get up and run away, he was attacked by a black shadow, which left several scars on his body and caused Zeng Hui to fall to the ground.
Looking closely, it's a black cat!
"It doesn't want to eat Zeng Hui, it's killing Zeng Hui. I think it's about to become powerful!"
Seeing this, Cheng Yong panicked and said hastily, "Kill it quickly, otherwise if it really becomes powerful, we in Hutougou will be in trouble!"
"stop!"
Seeing a group of villagers holding weapons and wanting to cause trouble for the Black Cat Detective, Zhou Jinju, who had chased after them from behind, quickly stood in front of the villagers and explained:
"Village chief, that's not a monster, it's a civet cat. It was the one that saved our Xiaocao!"
"Jinju, what nonsense are you talking about? It's a monster, how can it possibly save people..."
Cheng Yong spoke subconsciously, most cats are domesticated and will not attack people, but if they attack people, nine out of ten times they are powerful monsters.
But before he could finish his words, a flash of inspiration emerged in Cheng Yong's mind. He looked at the black cat headman not far away and asked in surprise: "Jin Ju, do you mean that this black cat belongs to Wang Lin's family?"
The news of a civet cat appearing in Wang Lin's family had spread throughout Hutougou after a day of spreading. He had also heard about it, although only a few kids had witnessed it with their own eyes, but Yuan Liang could testify.
He could still barely believe this rather outrageous thing!
A civet cat not only rescued the bullied Xiaocao from a few naughty kids, but also took a piece of bacon from home and brought it to Jinju's kitchen.
At this time, he could barely believe that the civet cat had saved Xiaocao from Zeng Hui again.
"Village chief, please save me! There is a monster here that is trying to hurt me. Please get rid of this monster quickly..."
Zeng Hui, who was lying on the ground and preparing to get up and run away, was panicked when he saw Cheng Yong and his group appear. Then he rolled his eyes and spoke hurriedly. Before he could finish his words, the black cat detective who had attacked him turned around and left.
With graceful steps!
At this moment, he finally realized that the Black Cat Detective had attacked him again and again to prevent him from escaping.
"Ding! You saved Xiaocao from Zeng Hui and let him be caught by Cheng Yong. Good deeds will be rewarded with +10 merits and +1 talent for pure and kind thoughts!"
A cold, mechanical voice sounded in his mind, and Wang Ping'an showed a satisfied smile. When he saw Cheng Yong and his group appear, he knew that he was no longer needed here, so he drove the Black Cat Detective away.
