Rules of the Strange: Starting with the Weird Peppa Pig

"If that's the case, then how are you any different from those demons?"

When Da Niu Niang heard Li Fan's words, she also stood up, somewhat angry.

“They are being selfish. I am doing this to protect my daughter from danger. I am protecting her. You men don’t understand anything.”

As she spoke, the black aura around her seemed to be emanating from her again, and she looked like she was about to become even more eerie.

Li Fan shut his mouth, but his eyes were filled with disgust, the same disgust he felt when looking at the group of devilish villagers who trafficked women.

"Big cowgirl."

At this moment, Wuxin spoke up from the side.

She could actually tell that Da Niu Niang seemed to have a particular aversion to men for some reason, so her brother and Li Fan's attempts to talk to her not only failed to persuade her, but might even have the opposite effect. She could only rely on herself to resolve this matter.

But she wasn't entirely confident. After all, from yesterday to today, although Da Niu Niang had been very kind to her, agreeing to almost every request and taking meticulous care of her, she would get angry and leave as soon as she suggested untying the ropes or leaving the place.

But it seems that if she doesn't speak up soon, Big Cow's mother might start fighting with her two brothers.

"Actually, I'm getting a little bored sitting here. I really want to go out and see the world. If you agree, I promise I'll be back before dark tonight, okay?"

She could only try to appease Da Niu Niang and escape first.

Big Cow Mother looked at Wuxin behind her, and her expression softened again.

"Good boy, it's dangerous outside, especially when you're with a man."

Men are all untrustworthy. Just stay with Mommy, okay? Don't go anywhere. Mommy will protect you.

"Damn it, how are you any different from a human trafficker? You were so angry when your daughter was tied up in the basement, but why can you treat our sister like this?"

"Have you ever thought about how heartbroken your real daughter would be if she saw you like this?"

Li Fan couldn't take it anymore. As he said this, he grabbed the shovel in his hand and rushed over, not bothering to waste his breath arguing with Da Niu Niang.

Wuyin had the same idea, so she took the opportunity to rush to Wuxin and quickly cut the ropes binding her hands and feet with a scalpel.

When Da Niu Niang heard Li Fan's words, her expression froze for a moment, then her face became even angrier, and the black mist around her grew thicker and thicker.

"You stinking man, you don't understand at all. What right do you have to judge me? You men are all selfish, selfish, selfish!"

She screamed shrilly, seemingly completely insane, and suddenly appeared behind Li Fan, raising her hand to grab his back.

Li Fan, having returned to reality in a soul state, felt quite light and agile, and turned to dodge the attack.

But he couldn't do much to Da Niu Niang now, and could only harass her from the side.

Chapter 106 The Tragic Life of Big Cow Girl

Big Cow Girl also realized that Li Fan was only harassing her and had not actually attacked her, and sensed that something was wrong.

Her gaze fell on another man.

Sure enough, the man was no longer there; he was secretly preparing to slip away with his beloved daughter.

Big Cow's mother felt that her precious daughter was about to run away with a bad man, so she rushed forward and attacked Wuyin.

With a sharp look in his eyes, Wuyin suddenly plunged a scalpel into Da Niu Niang's arm, then quickly took two steps back.

In an instant, black mist rose up and surrounded the big cowwoman's arm, but in just a few seconds, her arm was completely intact and attacked Wuyin again.

Wuyin kept dealing with the attacks from the Big Bull Mother, and Li Fan cooperated very well. When he saw that the Big Bull Mother was ignoring him, he immediately threw away the shovel, grabbed Wuxin's wrist, and quickly fled towards the cave entrance.

The two quickly climbed out of the cave and reached the dry pond. Seeing this, Wuyin stopped fighting with the big cow girl and, after blocking her attack once again, turned and fled towards the cave entrance.

This time, however, the big cow mother was not restricted by the mud cave. Instead, she leaped out of the cave, her eyes fixed on her beloved daughter's back, and charged towards Wuxin.

Seeing this, Wuyin quickly followed from behind, but his speed was far slower than that of Da Niu Niang.

"Why don't you listen to your mother again? Why? Why? Why don't you listen to your mother again?"

She was muttering to herself frantically as she rushed toward Wuxin.

Wu Xin turned and ran away. After all, compared to her two brothers, she only had a few extraordinary talents, but her physical strength and stamina were completely inferior.

Li Fan had no weapons left, but the situation was urgent, so he stood behind Wu Xin with a determined look in his eyes.

No one can take his sister away unless they step over his corpse... no, over his soul.

Just as Big Cow Girl appeared in front of Li Fan and was about to slap him away, she suddenly froze, her hand hovering in the air, not falling.

Li Fan finally snapped out of his shock and saw that Wu Xin was standing in front of him.

She gently embraced the bizarrely transformed Great Cow Girl, who seemed frozen in place, her expression blank.

The scene was rather eerie. Wuyin, who was running over from a distance, watched this scene and frowned.

Wu Xin hadn't thought about what would happen if she hugged Da Niu Niang, but she seemed to have heard some things from her brothers about Da Niu Niang's real daughter, and she had a guess in her mind.

Moreover, she didn't want Li Fan to get hurt because of her, so she tried to hug him.

After all, the more pain a person is in, the more they often need the simplest comfort.

She gently patted Da Niu Niang's back, softly comforting her.

"It's okay. I know you must be very sad, and I know you've been very tired. Take a rest, no one will blame you..."

Li Fan and Wu Yin looked at the two of them, feeling a mix of emotions.

They had witnessed firsthand what Da Niu Niang had gone through, but they had never thought to say a word of comfort to her.

As Wu Xin hugged Da Niu Niang, the black mist on her body actually began to dissipate slowly.

Not only that, but a wisp of white mist seemed to float above her head, and her body became somewhat transparent.

She kept sobbing softly, and in the end, she even squatted down, buried her head in Wuxin's arms, and cried loudly, as if she wanted to release all her pain.

She didn't want it to be like this either...

But she was in so much pain.

Before she died, a mysterious person told her that if she strangled herself with a fishing line at the bottom of the pond, she would be able to keep her last breath.

And that breath is her memory.

Once someone unlocks this memory, she will be able to go back in time, adjust the timeline, and change the course of events within the memory.

Although it was no longer the real world, there was nothing in the real world that she would miss. She was willing to stay in her memories forever and spend her life with her daughter.

So she went to the pond alone and hanged herself with a fishing line. She gradually couldn't breathe, so she instinctively stuck out her tongue to try to breathe fresh air.

But at that moment, it seemed as if her daughter was standing in front of her, smiling and saying something to her.

"Mom, long time no see."

A slight smile crept onto Da Niu Niang's lips as she stuck out her tongue, and her eyes widened as she tried to get a clearer look at her daughter.

This was her last expression before she died.

But in the end, as she entered her memories, she discovered that her daughter had not survived a single night at that beast's hands!

This memory is just making her relive the pain she once experienced. How could she bear it!

She knew perfectly well that it was wrong of her to kidnap other little girls and raise them as her own daughters, but she was in so much pain.

Perhaps she really is selfish.

Wu Xin gently stroked Da Niu Niang's hair.

Da Niu Niang was probably only around thirty years old when she died, but she already had a lot of white hair, which showed that she had experienced a lot of pain and suffering.

She quietly held Da Niu Niang and stayed with her.

Big Cow Mother cried for a long time, gradually changing from loud wailing to soft sobbing. Finally, she slowly stood up, her hands supporting Wu Xin's shoulders, her eyes looking somewhat tired.

"Go out with them, but remember a few things I told you."

Upon hearing this, the group's expressions instantly turned serious, awaiting what the old woman, Da Niu, would say next.

"First of all, today is Sunday. If you see a merchant selling ostriches, stay away from him, be sure to stay far away."

The second thing is to stay away from those villagers recently; they... are about to hatch successfully.

The third thing is that you must return to me before nightfall.

Da Niu Niang paused here, glanced at Wu Xin with a complicated look, and changed her words.

"If you don't want to come back to me, then you must hide in a safe house where there are no villagers, and never wander around the village at night."

Wu Xin nodded after hearing these words.

She knew this was a hard-won rule, and perhaps she could glean some other information from it, so she spoke up.

"Then why do this?"

When Da Niu Niang heard Wu Xin ask this, she hesitated for a moment, but still answered firmly.

"Don't ask why, just do this. I know these things aren't good for you. If you encounter any danger, I will protect you."

Wu Xin hugged Da Niu Niang again, her eyes resolute.

"I promised that I would return to you before dark, and I will not break my promise."

Chapter 107 The Merchants Are Back

Da Niu Niang nodded with a complicated expression, then took one last, reluctant look at Wu Xin before turning and leaving.

She walked slowly, her back slightly hunched, back to the basement.

She now considers that basement her home, because it was the place where her daughter needed her most in her final moments.

Meanwhile, the three of them synchronized all the information gaps from yesterday.

After thinking for a while, Wuyin said...

"Today is Sunday, and according to the first villager, a merchant should appear today."

Big Cow's mother also said that if the merchant comes today, you must stay far away from him.

However, I think we should try our best to save the ostrich the merchant is holding.

Wu Xin nodded as well.

"Those ostriches that the merchants recently brought over are most likely innocent bystanders from outside."
