After surviving my ordeal, I learned that the school beauty had given birth to twins for me.

The elderly people were furious. They all picked up their small stools and walked towards the flower bed, protecting Sanhua and the two children behind them.

Shen Yu looked up at the entrance of the residential area.

The man who came in was a bald man in his thirties with a shaved head and a long scar on his left cheek.

He had a crooked dragon tattooed on his arm, stretched over his shoulder, and because he was so fat, the dragon was deformed.

He was wearing a black vest, shorts, and flip-flops. He was carrying an iron cat trap in one hand and clutching several yellow paper talismans tightly in the other. His face was gloomy, and he didn't look like a good person at all.

This man is named Zhang Biao, and he is a notorious hoodlum in this area.

He served time in jail for fighting when he was young. After his release, he didn't look for a proper job. Instead, he made a living by stealing chickens and dogs and swindling money from old people.

He also drinks heavily, and when he's drunk, he beats his wife and children. His wife divorced him, and he lives alone. He's mentally disturbed and likes to abuse cats.

In the past six months, at least fifteen or twenty stray cats have gone missing in this area; he caught them and tortured them to death.

Last week, he sneaked into Chenguang Community to catch a cat. As soon as he opened the cage, the calico cat scratched his face all over, almost blinding him in his right eye. He was bedridden at home for a whole week, and the scars on his face still haven't faded.

How could he possibly swallow this insult?

Before his injuries had fully healed, he was already asking around for a master who could cure evil spirits.

Later, at the temple fair, I met an old man with a stall and spent a full five thousand yuan to buy a soul-locking talisman.

The swindler spoke with great enthusiasm, claiming that the talisman was blessed and could immobilize even the most powerful evil spirits.

At that point, not even a ghost, let alone a cat, will be able to escape.

Zhang Biao believed it to be true and came here today with the talisman and the cage, specifically to seek revenge.

Not only do they want to capture Sanhua and torture her to death, but they also want to skin her alive to vent their anger.

As soon as Zhang Biao entered the residential area, his eyes scanned the surroundings like searchlights, and he immediately spotted the calico catfish with its fur standing on end on the stone by the flower bed.

"Well, here you are, you damned beast!"

Zhang Biao grinned maliciously, picked up the cage, and limped toward the flower bed.

After being scratched by Sanhua last week, he tripped and fell while running in a panic, and his leg is still limping.

When the stray cats around saw him, they all meowed in fright and scurried into the bushes, not daring to show their heads.

Only the three flowers are guaranteed.

It stood on the rock with its back hunched over, breathing on Zhang Biao, the hair on its back standing up like needles.

It cannot run.

If it runs away, this person will catch other kittens, and will also cause trouble in the community, hurting the elderly people who are kind to it.

It's the boss cat in this neighborhood; it has to protect everyone.

"What's wrong with you?!"

Grandpa Wang was the first to step forward, blocking the flower bed with a palm-leaf fan in his hand, pointing at Zhang Biao.

"You're not welcome in our community, get out now!"

"That's right! You're catching the cat again! Do you believe we'll call the police right now!"

Grandma Zhang was trembling with anger, "You deserved to be scratched last time! Who told you to abuse the cat!"

"Security! Security! Get this person out of here!"

The old people all gathered around, forming layers upon layers to block Sanhua, pointing and cursing at Zhang Biao.

"Call the police?" Zhang Biao scoffed, spitting as he spoke, his face full of arrogance.

"What's wrong with me catching stray cats? They're not your pets, it's none of the police's business!"

"I'm telling you old fools, nobody's going to stop me today!"

Zhang Biao waved the yellow talisman in his hand, his smile growing even more sinister.

"That damned beast scratched me last week, I'm going to skin it alive today!"

And let me tell you, I specifically sought out a master for a talisman; this damned beast isn't getting away today! Anyone who tries to stop me, I'll curse them all!

Now that he has the master's talisman, he is very confident and doesn't take these old men and women seriously at all.

The old folks didn't believe in his talismans or anything like that, and they were arguing with him.

"What master or what master? I think you're just crazy!"

"Get out of here right now! We're really calling the police if you don't leave!"

"Everyone, attack together and drive him out!"

Zhang Biao grew impatient and shoved Grandpa Wang, who was blocking the way, onto his shoulder.

Grandpa Wang was already seventy-two years old, and he couldn't withstand such a push. He staggered back several steps and almost fell to the ground.

Fortunately, Shen Yu reacted quickly and stepped forward to support Grandpa Wang's arm, preventing the old man from falling.

"What are you doing!" Shen Yu's voice turned cold.

"How could you push Grandpa!" Niannian's little face was flushed with anger, and she clenched her little fists, looking extremely upset.

"Bad guy!" Gui Gui also stood in front, like a small cannonball, glaring angrily at Zhang Biao.

Zhang Biao glanced at Shen Yu and saw that he was just a handsome young man dressed plainly, with two children in tow, and didn't take him seriously at all.

"Where did this pretty boy come from? Mind your own business!"

Zhang Biao cursed, his eyes scanning the crowd as he stared intently at the three flowers on the rock. "You damned beast, come here!"

He took out a lighter from his pocket, clicked it, and lit the yellow talisman in his hand.

The talisman paper wasn't a normal yellow color; it emitted black smoke when burned.

There was also a strange, fishy stench, somewhat like the smell of rotting dead fish. It made people dizzy and nauseous, and elderly people nearby couldn't help but frown and cover their noses.

Zhang Biao muttered something under his breath, like he had a toothache.

When the talisman is half-burned.

Sanhua, who had been hunched over and panting, suddenly froze.

As if someone had acupunctured him, he stood stiffly on the rock, his whole body trembling uncontrollably, unable to even scream, his amber eyes filled with fear, tears welling up in his eyes.

It felt something cold and sticky, like a snake, coiling around its limbs and burrowing into its body through its pores.

It was so cold that its bones ached, and it couldn't muster any strength; it couldn't even move.

It wanted to call out, but couldn't make a sound.

I want to run, but I can't lift my legs.

It could only watch helplessly as Zhang Biao grinned maliciously and walked towards it step by step.

"Huh? What's wrong with Sanhua?"

"Why aren't you moving?"

"Were you frightened?"

The elderly people were anxious and wanted to go over, but when they smelled the black smoke, they felt dizzy, their legs went weak, and they couldn't even stand up straight.

Grandma Zhang was so anxious that tears were almost welling up in her eyes.

Sin ah.

This wonderful cat is about to be ruined by this bastard.

Zhang Biao looked at the three flowers fixed on the rock and laughed triumphantly. His laughter sounded like a male duck quacking, and it was particularly unpleasant.

"Hahaha! Frozen in place! I told you the master's talisman worked!"

"You damned beast, keep scratching me! Keep running!"

"Today I'm going to chop off your claws and skin you alive!"
