Li Shun knew that his daughter was defending her mother. He took the bowl happily and fed it to Zhao Xiu spoonful by spoonful.

When Li Xiaoran saw her mother eating with a smile, she felt a little dejected and turned to leave.

“Did you see that? Your daughter feels sorry for you and is punishing me!” Li Shun looked at his daughter’s departing figure and said happily.

Zhao Xiu looked at her daughter in amusement.

“That’s right. I’ve served you all my life. It’s time for you to treat me better! The daughter I gave birth to is naturally on my side!”

When Li Shun heard his wife’s words, he nodded. “Yes, yes, yes. It’s my turn to treat you well!”

As her parents were showing off their affection, Li Xiaoran went to the vegetable garden alone.

In the blink of an eye, Luo Cheng had been gone for seven to eight days. She wondered how things were going.

Luo Cheng, who Li Xiaoran missed, was in danger.

Because of the addition of the old beggar, Luo Cheng didn’t have enough dry rations.

Although everyone had also hunted a lot of wild animals in the mountains, without dry rations to eat, no one couldn’t take it anymore.

Luo Cheng thought about it carefully and prepared to go down the mountain to buy some dry food from a town not far away before continuing on his way back to the mountain.

As soon as they went out to buy dry food, they were hunted down.

These people attacked immediately.

Every move was ruthless. It was obvious that they wanted this group of people dead.

After five or six rounds of fighting, the group finally entered the deep mountains. Then, relying on Luo Cheng’s experience, they finally shook off the pursuers behind them.

At this moment, Luo Cheng’s arm had also been cut very deeply. Zi Yang was applying medicine to Luo Cheng’s wound.

After the medicine was sprinkled, Zi Zheng took some white cloth strips and carefully bandaged Luo Cheng’s wound.

“Young Master, which side are these people from? Why did the other party find us so quickly? We just appeared. Why did the other party catch up so quickly?” Zi Zheng asked in confusion.

Luo Cheng didn’t speak, but his gaze landed on the old beggar not far away.

“Jing Laosi, tell me! What exactly is going on?”

The old beggar shrank his head, then muttered,

‘Why are you asking me? I don’t know either! You must have provoked someone you shouldn’t have!”

“Old beggar!” Luo Cheng’s gaze turned cold when he saw that the other party was still not telling the truth.

“I took the mountain road this time, so they couldn’t have discovered our existence so quickly. Moreover, I never knew that such a powerful organization appeared in the martial world. They are assassins nurtured by an assassin organization. The person who provoked them was definitely you. Also, you might have been planted with some mark, so we were pursued the moment you appeared!” Luo Cheng looked at the old beggar and analyzed bit by bit.

The old beggar also knew that he was in the wrong because he also felt that those people were probably targeting him, and Luo Cheng and the others were implicated by him.

“I don’t know either! I don’t know what I did to attract a group of people to kill me.” The old beggar said gloomily, “Look at me. I was forced into the deep mountains and didn’t even dare to beg anymore, but the other party still won’t let me off. They recognized me the moment I appeared!”

Luo Cheng looked at the old beggar’s aggrieved expression and calmed down. Then he thought about it.

“Think about it carefully. Have you done or encountered anything special in the past few months?” Luo Cheng asked after a moment.

The old beggar recalled carefully and finally shook his head. “I didn’t do anything! I just walked around! As you know, I only care about wine and food. I didn’t do anything else!”

As soon as he heard the mention of food, Luo Cheng’s heart skipped a beat. He thought of something and asked, “Old beggar, what delicious food have you eaten recently? Is there anything special?”

Speaking of this, the old beggar immediately started talking.

“I’ve indeed eaten something special recently! As you know, beggars are best at making beggar’s chicken, but you’ll get sick of it if you eat too much of it. That’s why I’ve changed my diet recently. I ate roasted pork once. It tasted amazing! ”

As soon as he heard that it was pork, Luo Cheng was alarmed.

One had to know that the things in his hand had also been found in pork and eggs.

“Did you taste anything strange when you ate the roasted pig?” Luo Cheng asked.

“Yes! There was actually a pig belly hidden in that roasted pig. At that time, I thought that the pig belly looked tasty, so I wrapped it in banana leaves and brought it back!” The old beggar said.

“Where’s the pig belly?” Luo Cheng realized that there was something wrong with it and asked, “Did you cut it open and eat it after you went back?”

“Yes! That pig belly was especially delicious. Later, I went to that shop to try roasted pig belly, but that shop owner refused to admit that he had roasted pig belly before and said that I must have remembered wrongly! How could I, a foodie, remember wrongly? I searched everywhere for a long time, but I couldn’t find the roasted pig belly I had eaten before.”

“You know what happened after that. In less than two days, someone suddenly appeared and chased after me to kill me. How could I have time to find roasted pig belly?!” the old beggar said gloomily.

“Was there anything in the pig belly?” Luo Cheng asked after a moment.

“How did you know there was something in the pig’s belly?” the old beggar asked with a puzzled expression. “There was a packet of spices or something hidden in the pig’s belly. I found them when I ate them and threw them away!” “Where did you throw those things?” Luo Cheng asked, realizing something.

“Where else could I have thrown it? I just left it by the roadside. By the way, a

cow happened to pass by. After smelling those spices, it opened its mouth and ate them. At that time, I was glad that a cow could enjoy delicious food with me!” The old beggar said happily.

Luo Cheng looked at the old beggar sympathetically and finally understood something.

“Old beggar, is it possible that the thing you threw at the cow is the reason someone wants to kill you?!”

“How is that possible?” The old beggar jumped up. “Isn’t it just a bag of spices?

Is there a need to do this?”

“What if it wasn’t just ordinary spices?” Luo Cheng asked..
