Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser

When Aunt Miao said this, Feng Yuanlin, Director Wang and the others were alarmed. After listening to Aunt Miao talk about Cousin Pan's family, their frowns didn't ease.

Even if they hadn't experienced what happened in the village before, this matter couldn't be simple no matter how you looked about it, to say nothing of how Director Wang and the others had witnessed all sorts of methods and schemes in the circle.

Before Aunt Miao could continue, Director Wang couldn't help but say, "What happened to this family had something to do with Father Pan and that 'benefactor'!"

Director Wang's tone was affirmative and not a question.

Aunt Miao sighed and continued, "I didn't know at that time. I just felt that something was too strange about what happened to Cousin Pan's family!"

What she didn't say was that she had been focused on her own family affairs and her child at that time, and she wasn't in the mood to care about what happened to Cousin Pan's family at all.

However, when the children and pregnant women went missing, Aunt Miao kept an especially close eye on her child.

But she also heard some talk in the village, such as how Father Pan's cousin disrespected the True Buddha Lord and was punished for it.

Speaking of which, nobody really believed that what happened to Cousin Pan's family had to do with the True Buddha Lord; most people thought that it was an accident. In addition, the villagers were simple and honest. When something happened to Cousin Pan's cousin, Father Pan acted very sad, and the villagers didn't suspect that this matter had anything to do with him.

Aunt Miao always thought that her family was too far away from these things; it was fine as long as she just took care of her own family. She couldn't be bothered with the True Buddha Lord or whatever. However, she never thought that while she wanted to live a good life, someone had already set their sights on her family.

Later, her mother-in-law suddenly contracted a 'terminal illness.' At first, Aunt Miao really thought that her mother-in-law had a terminal illness, but when she thought about it later, she realized that wasn't the case. After all, in such a remote mountain village, how could anyone easily diagnose a terminal illness? Not to mention, the doctors in the village were all half-baked and didn't have any good medical skills at all.

It had just been someone using her mother-in-law to make Xu Jianmin obediently take the bait.

Aunt Miao had been under too much pressure when her mother-in-law contracted her 'terminal illness,' and both the Xu mother and son had said so themselves; why would Aunt Miao doubt it? All she thought about was making money so that she and Xu Jianmin could take her mother-in-law to a hospital for treatment.

That was when she fell into her mother-in-law's trap.

Speaking of which, she had always felt that there was nothing she had for her mother-in-law to plot against her – that was, until the other party set her sights on her son.

Only then did Aunt Miao truly understand how unfathomable and vicious people could be.

Ranran was Mother Xu's grandson, but Aunt Miao never thought that for the sake of small profits, Mother Xu wouldn't care about his life at all.

Aunt Miao had always known that not only did her mother-in-law dislike her grandson, she also disliked how 'good' Xu Jianmin was to her. As the saying went, even a vicious tiger wouldn't eat its cubs, and Aunt Miao always thought it was fine since Ranran was the grandson of the Xu family.

She never thought that the human heart could really be so vicious.

Mother Xu wanted to sell Ranran for a little bit of money and didn't care about his life. Naturally, Aunt Miao didn't agree, and neither did Xu Jianmin. After all, he only had one son; how could he bear to sell him?

Mother Xu got very angry. To Mother Xu, this was a win-win situation. This grandson was in poor health because he had been born prematurely – who knew if he would live to grow up. She might as well sell him and earn some money for her son to marry a new wife and have a healthy child.

So, even if the two of them didn't agree, Mother Xu's desire to sell her grandson didn't change.

Later, the person who targeted her family found Jianmin's weakness and put on a show with Mother Xu, who pretended to be terminally ill.

Although Xu Jianmin did care for Ranran, he was famous for being a filial son. His own mother was about to die, so of course, he couldn't care less about Ranran.

Xu Jianmin's determination not to sell his son weakened significantly.

Xu Jianmin had said to Aunt Miao back then that the other party's family background was good, and it would definitely be beneficial for Ranran's future prospects if he was adopted. Not only that, Father Pan and the rest of the Pan family also advised her that this was better for the child.

The more these people from the Pan family said this, the more she didn't dare believe them. She hadn't thought much of what happened to Cousin Pan's family before, nor had she been in the mood to care. Now that something had happened to her family, however, she couldn't help but wonder.

In the end, she wasn't someone from the village. On the contrary, she had seen many evil and strange things in the Miao family, as well as many atrocities. In addition to raising Gu worms, her father even personally knew of someone who abducted babies and cut off their hands and limbs to be refined into certain 'treasures.'

In fact, Aunt Miao had gotten a bad feeling from the moment the 'benefactor' whom Father Pan brought to the village wanted them to accept some True Buddha Lord – she just hadn't wanted to admit it. Now that the other party was eyeing her son, she couldn't help but wonder. At the same time, what she was most afraid of was that the other party wanted to buy her son for other uses, not to adopt him.

The more she thought about it, the more unwilling she became. It had to be pointed out that when babies were refined through some unorthodox evil arts into something else, their souls were imprisoned and they could never be reincarnated. How could she bear for her son to suffer like that?

She was still relying on Xu Jianmin at that time, and hoped that he would persuade Mother Xu to give up on this idea on account of his only son.

Who would have thought that Xu Jianmin was a real mommy's baby and a 'filial son.' Seeing that his mother was terminally ill, he no longer cared about his son and was prepared to sell Ranran.

While Xu Jianmin wanted to sell Ranran off, the 'benefactor' and the Pan family had other ideas. First of all, Father Pan tricked Xu Jianmin into saying that the True Buddha Lord whom he had just accepted was especially effective. After he believed and invited the True Buddha Lord into his house, not only did his mother recover from her terminal illness, all his wishes were fulfilled!
