Folklore: The baby starts the game, and the mother takes off her painted skin

Chapter 22: Cut the grass... to get rid of the roots [Seeking follow-up reading]

Mr. Ma is probably shy.

Because Liu Bai discovered that Master Ma didn't say another word until he got on the carriage at the door.

But his face was as red as a monkey's butt, and he acted in a hurry, as if he couldn't wait for Liu Bai to leave.

As soon as the wheels started turning, we had basically entered the old woods.

Master Ma was only concerned with getting on his way, and Liu Bai also kept his instructions in mind without saying anything.

But it didn't take long for Liu Bai to discover a problem. Compared with the last time he came here a few days ago, this road seemed to be much easier to walk on.

There will no longer be a clanging sound after walking for a while.

Liu Bai suddenly thought of what Master Ma said last time, saying that he was top-notch blood food at that time, and those wandering ghosts were desperately crashing into the carriage.

But now that his spirit has caught up and he has lit the furnace, those wandering souls naturally dare not come near.

"Now that you mention it, this carriage is a good thing. Even with so many wandering souls crashing into it, the carriage is still intact."

Liu Bai thought about it and looked around the car walls. Soon, he found a crack, which was blocked with blood-stained cotton wool.

He pulled out a strand out of curiosity.

"Ouch, ouch."

A hoarse voice suddenly sounded, scaring Liu Bai.

"Who, who is talking?" He looked around vigilantly.

Master Ma shouted helplessly outside: "Mr. Liu, please stop being so handsy, okay? We don't have many good ones here, and you're messing with them."

Liu Bai finally understood and stuffed the cotton wool back with a blushing face.

"Your carriage is quite amazing."

Master Ma stopped talking until they were almost at Huangliang Town. Then he spoke again, but his voice was much softer than before.

"Little Liu, did you not read the contents of my book clearly?"

Liu Bai blinked and said, "I can see clearly, a man and a woman are sitting together."

"You brat!" Master Ma was ashamed and angry.

Liu Bai asked again: "But what are they doing?"

Hearing this, Master Ma heaved a sigh of relief, "They are practicing martial arts... It's just that you know about this, if you dare to tell others!"

"What's wrong with telling others? Master Ma, do you want to hit me?" Liu Bai blinked his innocent little eyes.

When Master Ma thought of Madam Liu's unfathomable strength, he couldn't help but shiver.

"We're here, get off now."

Master Ma jumped off the carriage and opened the door. As soon as Liu Bai reached the door, he was carried down by him.

"Huh? Aren't we just at the entrance of town? It's still some distance from my home."

"There's something going on at the farm, I have to go back first." After saying this, Master Ma drove the carriage, turned the car around and returned along the same route.

Looking at this unfunny Master Ma, Liu Bai sighed and had to carry his bag and walk into the town.

At this point, my mother is probably still in the shop and it’s not time for her to go home yet.

Just as he was walking, Liu Bai sneezed twice in succession.

"Ok?"

"Damn it, it must be that guy Ma Lao San who cursed me behind my back, that wicked old Deng."

At the same time, Master Ma, who was driving the cart, regained his composure and muttered, "Fortunately, that kid didn't know what that meant."

But when he thought about Liu Bai asking him if he could solve the problem with his hands, he slapped his thigh in anger.

"尻!"

"That boy is so ignorant of the little things between men and women? I don't know where this smart guy came from!"

...Seeing that the door of his own shop was indeed open, Liu Bai felt relieved.

I don’t know why, but there’s clearly a very ferocious ghost here… Maybe, after all, it’s still my mother.

Liu Bai yawned and felt his eyelids trembling.

'Why am I so sleepy? I remember I slept well last night.'

He forced himself to reach the door of his house, but before he could enter, he fell into the lap of a beautiful woman.

Smelling the familiar scent of peach blossoms, Liu Bai was so sleepy that he couldn't even lift his head. He just shouted in a daze.

"Mom, I'm back."

Looking at Liu Bai who had fallen asleep in her arms, Madam Liu's face, which had originally had some smile on it, instantly turned cold.

She bent down slightly, picked up her child, and first took away the large bag he was carrying.

Then she reached out and touched his head, and vaguely, it seemed as if a spider web was casually pulled off by her.

Liu Bai hummed and tried to open his eyes.

Madam Liu patted his back gently and said softly, "Go to sleep. Mother is here. You will be fine after a good sleep."

In the shop behind, Xiaocao, whose mouth was sewn shut and who could not speak, could only open his eyes wide.

Because it could sense that its own queen was surprisingly... calm.

Although the queen sells incense and candles here every day and is always friendly to the people, Xiaocao has always known how fierce her queen is.

If I remember correctly, there is a piece of land in Qingzhou that is still uninhabited for 300 miles.

And the hundreds of thousands of lives in that city, they are all the Queen's proud paintings...

And now, it seems like someone has attacked the Empress's child?

That... the child that the queen gave up by sacrificing one of her own realms in order to have a child?
Xiaocao couldn't help but shiver when he thought of this.

How can the Empress remain calm when someone is planning to harm her child?
"You stay here and watch. I'm going to go out for a while."

……

Master Ma drove the carriage, humming a little tune, and walked slowly on the mountain road.

But suddenly, he found that Lao Ma could not move, and even he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. He subconsciously wanted to light the three life fires in his body.

The life fire... was also frozen? !
Then, he saw a beautiful woman in a red dress in front of him, holding a child in her arms.

A child who had just got off his carriage.

"This... he wouldn't really tell his mother that I bullied him!" This thought suddenly popped up in Master Ma's mind.

"Fortunately, you sent him back in person." Madam Liu's cold words rang in his ears.

Mr. Ma was confused and wanted to speak, but found that he could not say anything.

The next moment, he suddenly felt dizzy, and when he reacted, he found that he had arrived...

Is this, Wangjiatunzi?
This is Wang Po's territory, but this... Mr. Ma looked at the back of the woman in the red dress in front of him, his old eyes widened, and he was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

What kind of supernatural method is this...

But when he walked into Mrs. Wang's house, saw the things placed on the Eight Immortals Table, and saw Wang Zhu kneeling on the ground, he immediately understood.

He didn't hesitate at all, and there was no such thing as a man's knees being made of gold. He just knelt down as his legs went weak.

Madam Liu seemed unaware.

Liu Bai seemed to be woken up in a daze. He slowly opened his eyes and saw his mother right in front of him. His uneasy heart relaxed.

Then he realized that this place did not seem to be his home, and the cold voice of Madam Liu rang in his ears.

"It's been so long, and I haven't taught you anything yet."

"Today, I, as your mother, will teach you one thing: to cut the grass... you must remove the roots!"
