Dressed as a villain's stepmother, I use spiritual springs to raise cubs

"and many more."

Xia Bai'an grabbed Tang Song who wanted to hear the sound.

Tang Song staggered a step, and looked at Xia Bai'an in the dark in confusion.

Xia Bai'an lowered his eyes, hid his hands under his cuffs, pulled Tang Song behind him, and replied, "Ergou, we are here."

After finishing speaking, she whispered in Tang Song's ear, "I don't want them to know about my injury, don't say it."

"why?"

"I don't want them to worry, especially Ergou is close to the children, understand?"

Xia Bai'an twitched a pimple between his eyebrows.

Tang Song nodded.

Outside, Ergou hurriedly followed their voices to find them, panting on their knees in the darkness.

"Finally found you, Tie Zhu and I are dying of panic! He just found our human skin mask in the forest, I'm afraid you will be misled!"

Er Gou spoke intermittently, wiping away his sweat.

Human skin mask?

Xia Bai'an stood up slowly, and in the darkness, she could only vaguely see the contours and eyes of Ergou's face. She asked, "What human skin mask? And Tie Zhu and the others?"

"Just... a human skin mask made of batter? Tie Zhu set fire to a pile just now, let's go find Tie Zhu and the others to join them."

Er Gou chattered, and gently tugged Tang Song, pointing him in the direction.

Tang Song glanced at him and walked in the direction he pointed.

Xia Bai'an picked up the muddy skirt, followed Ergou's pace, and asked suddenly: "You said that there is a human skin mask hidden here, how do I know that you are not a fake?"

"The face can be faked, but can the voice be faked?" Er Gou laughed suddenly, "Let's go quickly, if we go back late, that boy Tie Zhu will beat me up again."

Xia Bai'an's eyes dimmed, and he stretched out his hand to Ergou: "I'm tired, Ergou, please carry me back."

"It's done."

Ergou nodded, and took Xia Bai'an's hand.

The next moment, a strange man's scream resounded through the entire forest.

Tang Song followed the sound and looked back, seeing the silvery moonlight illuminating the blade in Xia Bai'an's hand, and the blade was piercing Ergou's wrist fiercely. He was startled and shouted: "Didn't Ergou bark just now..."

"It's just a counterfeit!"

Xia Bai'an scolded angrily, took out the medical knife in the space with the other hand, and put it on the neck of 'Er Gou', then pulled out the knife with the other hand, strangled Er Gou's neck, and tightly held his life in his own hand.

Tang Song also reacted.

The man's words just now were obviously Ergou's voice, but after being attacked by Xia Bai'an, a stranger's scream came out of his throat.

It is clearly false.

He untied his belt directly, and quickly tied up the man's struggling legs.

The counterfeit didn't react at all, the doctor's knife in Xia Bai'an's hand had already cut the flesh on his neck, and he asked coldly, "Whose order are you acting on?"

"Let go...or tonight...ah!"

"Now, I am interrogating you."

With cold eyes, Xia Bai'an took out a needle with paralyzing venom from the space, and slowly pushed it into the impostor's neck.

The severe pain hit, and the counterfeit almost had no time to make a sound, just widened his eyes, and fell limply to the ground.

Both Tang Song and Xia Bai'an took a step back.

Tang Song wiped the sweat from his forehead, and picked up his belt again: "He told so many news at the beginning, and he was so sincere, I thought he was real."

"Things are a little bit bad. It stands to reason that he doesn't need to make up such a story. If he really wants to kill us, he can attack us in the dark. He made so many mysteries, but it made me worry about Tie Zhu and Ergou."

Xia Bai'an stood firm and covered his wound, feeling a little dizzy.

She grabbed Tang Song in the dark, and seeing that Tang Song still looked confused, she clicked her tongue impatiently.

If she really passed out, Tang Song might really die in this forest.

This kid didn't understand anything at all.

She had no choice but to help explain: "The things he said may be true, and the imitation of the two dogs is very likely to be two-handed preparations. Kill me, once and for all, if you can't really kill me, I will also He will think that Ergou is betraying him, so he will split with the Qian family."

Tang Song raised his eyebrows: "The Qian family is just a small family in a remote village, what does the Qian family have..."

"The Qian family is only related to my Chenxiang Pavilion. The medicinal materials of Tongjitang are also signed in his name. If I guess correctly, it should be those women who are playing tricks behind the scenes."

After Xia Bai'an finished speaking, almost his whole body fell into Tang Song's arms, leaving only one sentence, "Go, it's not suitable to stay here for a long time."

Tang Song didn't doubt that there was him, so he simply picked her up and walked towards the place Xia Bai'an pointed at first.

Xia Bai'an was drowsy, but out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a figure passing by.

"Get down," she said.

Tang Song subconsciously softened his knees, and knelt directly on the ground. Xia Bai'an in his arms also fell to the ground. He snorted, but quickly raised his body to look.

There were three small knives sticking out of the tree trunk behind the two of them.

Tang Song had goose bumps all over his body.

Xia Bai'an stopped him behind him, and saw a tall man walking from the forest. He was dressed in a strange black robe, only showing a pair of dark eyes.

"I really didn't expect that Jiaohua in Fuzhong in the capital could escape from our trap several times."

"I didn't expect that juggling killers would have the leisure to play different tricks with me."

Xia Bai'an snorted coldly, and when he heard the calm voices from both sides, his heart seemed to sink into a deep pool.

If it is under siege, it will be difficult.

She may be sure to escape, but she is really not sure that she can face these killers head-on.

The only thing she can do is temporarily protect Tang Song behind her.

The slender man suddenly sneered: "You really are eloquent, but that's all for you today. Those Tie Zhu and Ergou under your command have already discovered the human skin mask we left there on purpose, so go all the way in the direction Look, I'm drifting away from you."

"It looks like I'm going to die here."

Xia Bai'an said in a dull voice, a gleam flashed in her eyes, she thought for a while, then sat down cross-legged and looked at the man, "Before I die, can I ask you a question?"

"I don't hate people who accept their fate like you, so I can make you understand." The tall and thin man snapped his fingers, and people from all around in the forest came out one after another, surrounding them.

"Human skin masks should be one of your tricks, but if you want to conceal your identity, you don't need to use this key item to distract Ergou and Tie Zhu away, but you still did it, isn't it superfluous?" Xia Bai'an ask.

The tall and thin man smiled slightly.

"It's really unnecessary, but we are happy. Who told the employer to ask us to change identities, tarnish your reputation, and then torture you to death? You have to add a human skin mask to sow discord. Since they bother me one more time , but don’t add money, don’t blame us for deliberately revealing this, it’s a small revenge on the employer.”
