Chapter 405 After regaining consciousness, five years of marriage with a sickly Miao boy (2/2)

Lin Xianghuai narrowed his eyes slightly. These two, mother and son, are really out of control now, taking their anger out on him?

He took two deep breaths, his heart clenching with anger. Little White looked blankly at its mistress and young master, then glanced up at Lin Xianghuai's livid face. It sighed sadly, "Alas..."

Lin Xianghuai glanced at the two plump rabbits in the bamboo basket, then kicked them with his foot: "Still eating rabbits? Go hungry, you heartless ingrate."

The rabbit, which had been knocked unconscious, was suddenly kicked. Startled, it opened its eyes, met Lin Xianghuaiyin's sinister gaze, rolled its eyes, and fainted again.

Inside the drum tower at the very center of the Miao village, the clan chief, with a serious expression, mediates a dispute among the clan members.

Achi Sha rushed in, sobbing, and knelt on the ground, kowtowing loudly. She clutched the clan leader's clothes tightly and pleaded, "Father, I offended Yuan Jiang, and Ba Daixiong put a blood-drawing Gu on me!"

"My daughter knows she was wrong, please save her!"

Suddenly interrupted, the clan chief's face darkened with impatience. His unfriendly gaze fell on Achisha's pitiful crying face, and then, upon hearing what she said, his expression turned utterly astonished: "What did you say?"

Achisa repeated it tearfully.

The clan chief's vision went black, and he could no longer bother to mediate the dispute among the clan members. He hurriedly summoned the shaman.

After examining her, the witch doctor's expression turned grave. The blood-drawing gu poison in Achi Sha had gathered and formed into blood-drawing worms, which were now gnawing at and sucking her blood and flesh.

Within three days, it will become a dried-up corpse.

The clan chief's bone staff, a symbol of his status, fell to the ground, its silver ornaments jingling and clattering everywhere. He slumped against the railing of the stilted house as if his bones had been removed, his liver-colored lips trembling. He angrily cursed, "Who in the village doesn't know that Ba Daixiong is protecting that Han girl!"

"You've really lost your mind. Even when beating a dog, you have to consider its owner. By bullying Yuan Jiang, you're showing disrespect to Ba Daixiong!"

"Achisa, you have really disappointed me."

Achisha cried in fear, pleading, "I know I was wrong, Father, please save me!"

The clan chief glared at Achisha with exasperation. If Achisha weren't his only daughter, he really wouldn't want to get involved in this mess!

Upon hearing this, the shaman instantly understood that the Blood-Inducing Gu had been planted by Ba Daixiong. He dared not offer to remove the Gu, glanced regretfully at Achi Sha, apologized to the chieftain in Miao language, and hurriedly left.

Did Jie Ba Dai Xiong use a poison?

No one in the village dared to do it.

The clan chief sighed, but he knew that if he wanted to remove the blood curse from his daughter, he could only beg Ba Daixiong to show leniency.

“Father…” Achi Sha bit her lip, her voice trembling, her eyes filled with pleading. She was afraid that the clan chief would not plead with Ba Dai Xiong for her sake, but even if he did, would Ba Dai Xiong forgive her?

Now that things have come to this, Achisha felt nothing but regret. She was wrong; she shouldn't have provoked Yuan Jiang.

This put my father in a difficult position.

Tears streamed down her face as she closed her eyes.

"Achisha, I hope you remember this lesson." The clan chief was helpless; how could he bear to watch his beloved daughter die a tragic death?

"I will definitely remember this." Achisha opened her eyes in surprise, looked at the clan leader's dark eyes, sniffed, and realized that she really knew she was wrong.

On the other side, Lin Xianghuai stood in the courtyard with a stern face.

The image of Yuan Jiang's reddened and aggrieved eyes kept flashing through his mind. His heart felt heavy and painful, veins bulged on his forehead, and he gritted his teeth as he exhaled a breath of stale air.

He picked up two rabbits and started cooking. He made three dishes: braised rabbit, spicy rabbit head, and roasted rabbit. He found a wild ginseng in the mountains and killed an old hen to make soup for Yuan Jiang. Yuan Jiang must have vegetables with her meals, so he picked some fresh cabbage and stir-fried it.

After finishing cooking, Lin Xianghuai took a deep breath, stepped into the stilted house, and reached out to push the door, only to find it locked from the inside...
