Report

How to deal with Sun Wen had become a problem.

It would be a pity to kill him, but it would be difficult to resolve the hatred in his heart if he didn't kill him.

Using living people to cultivate and turning them into idiots was an evil art that went against the harmony of the heavens. He would definitely suffer retribution …

Chen Xi was probably Sun Wen's savior.

Since that was the case, Chen Xi could only enforce justice on behalf of the heavens and let Sun Wen experience Zhao Guifen's pain.

Thus, Chen Xi specially refined a pill for Sun Wen.

For this reason, he even used a bit of Blood Thorn Grass. It could be said that wool comes from a sheep's back.

Heart Devouring Ants.

However, they weren't ants. They were a type of pill, or rather, poison.

When someone consumed this pill, they would feel as if their entire body was being bitten by fire ants every half an hour.

The heart-wrenching pain didn't come from the body, but from the soul. Thus, it couldn't be described with words.

It was densely packed, as if every inch of their skin was being burned by fire and pierced by needles.

Every time the pill took effect, the poisoned person would feel a pain worse than death. They could only lie on the ground weakly, struggling and praying for the pill's effect to pass quickly.

This pill came from the most poisonous sect in Heavenly Spiral. It was also developed by them to punish disciples who committed grave mistakes.

It didn't harm their lives, but it also made them feel a pain worse than death. It made them feel fear from the bottom of their hearts, and they would never dare to commit the same mistake again.

Although this pill couldn't kill people, it was said that many disciples couldn't withstand the endless heart-wrenching torture and chose to commit suicide to seek relief.

He didn't know if Sun Wen could withstand this kind of torture.

Chen Xi only hoped that Sun Wen could be strong and not be played to death.

If Sun Wen died, it might really be a great loss to the Wu Lian.



Lunch was authentic farmhouse food.

Because Auntie Zhang's house didn't have any natural gas or induction cookers, the old house naturally used a firewood stove.

Perhaps it was a psychological effect, but the food made from the firewood stove seemed to be exceptionally fragrant.

The little fellow sniffed and picked up a piece of bamboo shoot. After tasting it, she immediately pointed at the plate of bamboo shoots fried with meat and laughed happily, "I dug this!"

"Good, good, good. Let's see what you're capable of. Come, eat more."

Auntie Zhang smiled and patted her little head. After giving her a piece of lean meat, she gestured for her to sit properly.

It had been a long time since the old house had been so lively. Aunt Zhang's family of three, Little Bean's family of three, Chen Xi's family of three, and Qin Xueqing's family of three, this meal was really lively.

The table was filled with authentic farmhouse dishes. The little girl giggled as she ate. She seemed to have completely forgotten that she was insisting on going home just a moment ago …

In fact, not only were the vegetables delicious, even the rice was exceptionally delicious.

This was because Auntie Zhang's cooking utensils were not electric cookers, but retorts.

It was the 21st century. Every household used an electric cooker to cook rice, so many people didn't even know what a retorter was.

In the past, a wooden bucket was used to cook rice, and that bucket was called a retorter.

The rice steamed with a retorter was called retorted rice, and the taste was completely different from the rice steamed in an electric cooker.

Steaming rice in an electric cooker was very simple. Put an appropriate amount of rice and water in it, cover it with a lid, and wait for the meal.

But retorted rice was different.

Before the electric cooker was popularized, steaming rice was actually a very troublesome thing. It also required a certain amount of experience and skill. Otherwise, if one was careless, the steamed rice would be half-cooked, or the steamed rice would be extremely hard with no moisture at all.

Many people felt that retorted rice was hard, but in fact, this was because the steamed rice was not good enough. They didn't steam the rice with the right amount of softness and richness.

Now, generally, only restaurants used retorts to cook rice. This was the first time the little fellow had eaten this kind of rice, so naturally, she felt that the rice was exceptionally fragrant.

After lunch, the sister-in-law left with the Yida bottle that Chen Xi gave her.

The toxicity of the Heart-Eating Ant would attack every half an hour, and each attack lasted about five minutes.

The Yida bottle contained the antidote, and one pill could suppress the toxicity for a day.

The toxicity of this antidote was so strong that once it took effect, it could do nothing but lie on the ground and struggle.

Wu Lian still counted on Sun Wen to do things, so Chen Xi naturally had to give him an antidote to suppress the toxicity.

Letting Sun Wen earn the antidote through good performance was like giving a sweet date after a slap.

This was the highest level of controlling people.

Sun Wen's problem was solved, but the little fellow's problem was not.

Although she was still smiling when eating, if she didn't find anything fun in the afternoon, she would probably curse at night …

Chen Xi pondered for a moment, and after saying goodbye to Qin Ruoying, he took the little fellow to the river.

It was still very cold in the valley at the beginning of spring. The little girl was wearing a thick down jacket and a cotton cap. She was wrapped up tightly, only revealing a small pink face.

As soon as she arrived at the valley, she stepped on the big stones and skipped to the river.

Then, she squatted on the stone and carefully reached out to touch the cold river water.

She had never been to the river before, so of course, she was very excited.

February was the best time to fish because the water temperature gradually rose at this time, and the fish would begin to move to the shallow water area on the shore.

The temperature in the shallow water area rose faster under the sun, and a large number of shrimp, water insects, and plankton gathered there, which also provided a lot of food for the fish. Therefore, there would be groups of fish coming to the shallow water to warm themselves, forage for food, and even prepare for laying eggs in the future.

When there were so many fish, it was naturally easy to fish.

Fishing in the countryside was not so particular. A thin bamboo pole, a piece of fishing line, and a hook were enough.

As for the bait …

He just needed to go to the edge of the field and turn over a few stones.

The little fellow was still young, so she didn't feel that the earthworms under the stones were disgusting.

After Chen Xi caught more than ten earthworms and put them into the plastic bag, she followed her father and took one out of the soil under the stones, and then carefully studied it in her hand.

Chen Xi looked at her curious appearance and couldn't help but smile and pat her little head.

After letting the little fellow put the earthworm into the bag, the father and daughter found a shallow water area on the river bank that faced the sun.

The sun in early spring was very bright, and the warm sun shone on the body. The river breeze blew, making people feel refreshed.

The little fellow sat on a big stone by the river. Before she started to fish, she was already happily waving the bamboo pole and giggling.

After Chen Xi put the fishing line on her bamboo pole and hung the earthworm, the little fellow followed her father's example and threw the hook into the river under the stone.

As the saying goes, Jiang Taigong fishing, those who are willing to take the bait.

The crucian carp in early spring was very easy to catch. In addition, Chen Xi used his zhenqi to drive the nearby fish over, so not long after the little fellow threw the bait, she felt a sudden pulling force on the fishing rod.

Seeing this, the little fellow couldn't help but open her eyes wide.

She pulled the fishing rod and was stunned for a moment. Then, she shouted excitedly, "Papa! Papa! I caught a fish! I caught a fish! "

"Amazing! Niannian, quickly lift the fishing rod, or the fish will break free! "

Hearing Chen Xi's words, the little fellow lifted the fishing rod and then threw it to the side.

A crucian carp was immediately pulled out of the water by her and directly thrown into the sand on the river bank.

Seeing that he had really caught a fish, the little guy was so excited that he immediately threw away the fishing rod and ran over to the fish.

This crucian carp was not very big, about a jin. After being pulled ashore, it lay on the river bank and kept jumping.
