I think, do not say that every household in the rural area has a dog, at least half of the families have a dog, why is there only one? Also, how come all the dogs are dead?

The most important question was, why would a dog cry?

I heard Qiao Anshan ask, why is there only one left?

The people next to him said that all the dogs in the village had suddenly died, and only this one was left, so I was carried over.

Hearing him say that, I immediately saw hope, and a sudden thought popped into my mind, that the Holy Infant had appeared?

It didn't say anything as it told me to follow it, and it also didn't tell me where to go. But then, the Xiao Tao suddenly appeared by my side, forcing me to follow it, and then I saw that it was him who disappeared, so I passed out and entered the Yin City, but now, it seems that it was that little Dwarf who wanted to save me, he let me follow it, so that I could shake off the person behind me. If the person behind me was really the Xiao Tao, how could there be no shadow? But in the end, I still chose to follow Xiao Tao. The little Dwarf didn't chase after me anymore, so from this, it seems that the thing that really captivated me was the thing that disguised itself as "Xiao Tao"!

However, to kill so many dogs at the same time, it is definitely not something an ordinary person can do. The only one who has helped me before, the only one who has such an ability, is probably the little Dwarf, who is very likely to be the Holy Infant!

Therefore, I firmly believe that the Holy Infant has already revealed his true colors.

It was then that I realized how wonderful it was to see hope.

After that, there was a period of silence. Then, someone asked, "Is this little kid too evil? If we let him fall into the river like this, will something happen to him?"

Qiao Anshan said loudly. What happened to your hammer, who could escape from my grasp in Qiao Anshan's territory? Zhang Luofeng did not die in my hands, otherwise the result would be the same! Cut the crap, hurry up and fall into the river!

Zhang Luofeng?! Qiao Anshan actually mentioned Zhang Luofeng's name! You must know, Zhang Luofeng is my grandfather! I didn't expect that there would be someone who knew my grandfather here.

I almost blurted out and shouted for them to let me go. I was Zhang Luofeng's grandson, but just as I opened my mouth, I immediately decided to take back what I had said.

Second, Qiao Anshan had said just now, "Zhang Luofeng did not die in my hands, otherwise, the result would be the same", which fully proves that my grandfather had conflicts with them before when he was still alive, so it was useless for me to make a move now, or I might as well die a little faster.

Qiao Anshan was a carpenter, and my grandfather was a craftsman when he was young. They were of the same generation, and also travel together, so there was nothing strange about them knowing each other. It was just that I don't understand what happened between them that made Qiao Anshan clench his teeth.

Could it be that their goal for killing me isn't because of Bao Wenjun? It's because of my grandfather?

At that moment, however, I heard an anxious digging sound. Because I was lying on the ground in the coffin, I could hear it very clearly. The "Duk Duk Duk" sound was probably the sound of the puppy's paws digging into the ground!

Then I heard someone shout, "Little dog wants to run, little dog wants to run, grab him!"

At the same time, I heard a loud clanging sound from the coffin, followed by a series of more clanging sounds that made my head ache.

It was then that the outside was in disarray, and through their conversation I learned that the puppy had run into a coffin and killed himself.

At this moment, I heard someone whisper, 'Lord Qiao, why don't we just throw him in and calculate how we're going to do it? If we delay any longer, it might be detrimental to us!'

Qiao Anshan said, wait, I want to see who dares to cause trouble in my territory, since this brat cannot escape, how about this, I will cut a paper dog for you.

After that, I heard the Lin Zhishu say that we should first focus our attention on the coffin lid, so that no mishap would happen.

Then a few men brought the coffin lid over, and before I could see who it was, it was closed, and I heard a "dang dang dang" and the coffin was nailed to the ground.

Even though it was pitch black and he could not see anything, he could clearly hear the sounds coming from outside.

Worse, though, the air was thinning and I was getting hotter and hotter.

If the Holy Infant truly appeared, I don't know when it would be able to come to my rescue, and I don't know if I would be able to hold it in until then.

The most important thing is that the Holy Infant is not alive, he does not need to breath, and I am a living person so I have to pant. If he did not realize this point and chose to waste time with them, I would be dead by then.

I kept reminding myself not to move. The more people moved, the faster the oxygen disappeared. To put it bluntly, the faster they died.

I heard a scraping sound outside, and a few moments later I heard a series of little barking dogs.

I thought, It's over, the paper dog has done it.

Sure enough, Qiao Anshan shouted and raised the coffin, and then the coffin was lifted and walked forward shakily. After walking a short distance, the coffin was put down, and I think it was towards the river, because I heard the sound of flowing water.

Qiao Anshan shouted loudly. With Qiao Family from his ancestors, Qiao Anshan fell into his Underworld Coffin into the Miasma River and watched as his ancestors protected our Jade Tian Village's prosperity.

A dull thumping sound was heard, followed by a violent shake. The entire world turned silent.

I knew that I had been thrown into the river, and after a collision the coffin stopped moving steadily, as if it had sunk to the bottom.

I wondered how the coffin could sink to the bottom of the water if it was made of wood. Could it be that the red lines on this metal slab had taken effect?

But anyway, there's no point in thinking about it now, all my hopes are dashed.

In the end, the Holy Infant still did not appear, and no miracle happened.

My method of death will probably not be discovered in a few decades, or even a hundred years.

I thought about my parents who were still alive, about Second Uncle, and about Samit's beautiful daughter, Kieran.

The air was thinning out, and the severe lack of oxygen in my brain made me drowsy. I knew that once I fell asleep, I would never wake up again.

There was only a sliver of consciousness left. I could feel water seeping into the crevice of the coffin …

If I die just like this, it would be really depressing, but why? Is it because my grandfather had a feud with their village, and they were afraid that I would know the truth, so they killed me in advance? However, why did he have to do something so inhumane as throwing me into the river alive? Why don't you kill me first before dealing with it?

If there is a next life, I will no longer trust anyone... That was the last thought in my consciousness.

After an unknown period of time, I seemed to have regained consciousness, and my head was buzzing. I heard a line by my ear. "Ha ha! You've finally awoken!"

I can hear that this is Lin Zhishu's voice.

I immediately opened my eyes and sat up, looking at him warily.

When Lin Zhishu saw that I had woken up, his tightly knitted eyebrows relaxed, but he still looked exhausted. His wet clothes were not yet dry.

I asked him, "What do you mean by deceiving me into this place and then throwing me into the river to feed the fishes and now saving me from this?"

Lin Zhishu scolded, I'm lying to you! If I hurt you, would you still be alive? Let me ask you, do you still remember what I saw when I took off your shroud the other day?

I shook my head and said I didn't know.

Seeing him like this, I also got scared by him. I don't know if it's due to some psychological effect or something, but I felt uncomfortable all over, an indescribable heat. I asked him, "What did you see?"

Second Master Lin said, after I took off your old clothes, I saw that you were actually carrying a Infant Spirit on your back, and from inside out, you were carrying a total of twenty-three Infant Spirit!

The astonishment in my heart was indescribable. Looking at Second Master Lin's expression, I knew that he was not lying to me.

Infant Spirit? Holy Infant? Why were there still twenty-three of them? No wonder Steamed Bun had asked Bao Wenjun to stay away from the Indians. I had actually carried twenty-three Infant Spirit on my back!

At this moment, I felt it difficult to breathe. I wanted to say something, but after thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't think of anything to say.

I stared at myself for a long time. I wanted to ask too many questions, but in the end, all I asked was, Why!

Second Master Lin said, don't be anxious, although I do not know why this is so, I know that someone is definitely trying to harm you. I just want to understand why you have so many Infant Spirit on you! In my entire life, I've seen many strange things, but I've never seen a person carrying so many Infant Spirit!

I asked him, are there any of these Infant Spirit that are completely black?

The Lin Zhishu shook his head and said. There was brown, yellow, white, but not black.

Hearing this, I got it. No matter what, at least Steamed Bun's Black Infant was not on me, so I was rather pleased. At least I wouldn't end up like Steamed Bun and Bao Wenjun.

I asked him again, but what does it have to do with you throwing me in the river?

The Lin Zhishu said, of course it was directly related to you. Only if you die would that thing not follow you anymore.

You threw me in the river so he'd think I was dead and leave?

He nodded his head and said that was right, that was exactly what he meant, but Qiao Anshan and the rest did indeed want to kill me, the Lin Zhishu was doing it to protect themselves, so they did not want to be able to see that he was helping me, so on the surface, they had to form a team with the villagers, and furthermore, they had to use them to send me to the river, to let the Infant Spirit leave from me.

I thought to myself as I listened, "He is really a sly old fox, doing things in such a crafty manner."

Ask him, these Infant Spirit have already left me?

Lin Zhishu shook his head and said, No!
