I started out with seven husbands, and I worked hard to support my family while crying.

Chapter 403: I have diarrhea

Fang Xiaoxiao pretended to be calm and said with an embarrassed look, "Master, I'm sorry, my stomach is upset and I need to go to the toilet."

The bald monk, looking impatient, gave a random, haphazard directions.

The two went to the outhouse. Fang Xiaoxiao clutched her stomach, her brows furrowed, and said, "I have diarrhea, it'll probably last for a while. You should go back to sleep first, don't suffer here with me."

Wang's second daughter shook her head firmly and said, "No, I'll wait for you here."

Helpless, Fang Xiaoxiao had no choice but to go into the outhouse. As soon as she entered, Pei Yan's figure suddenly flashed out from the darkness, startling Fang Xiaoxiao so much she almost screamed. Both surprised and annoyed, she said in a low voice, "What are you doing here?"

Pei Yan made a shushing gesture, signaling her to be quiet.

Just then, a light footstep sound came from outside the latrine. The two immediately held their breath and hid in a corner to eavesdrop on the sounds outside.

At this moment, Fang Xiaoxiao's heart was in her throat, and her palms were sweating with nervousness.

Outside the latrine, the quiet night was broken by the bald monk's rough voice and the timid reply of the Wang family's second daughter.

The bald monk glared with lecherous eyes and asked menacingly, "Why don't you go back?"

The second daughter of the Wang family trembled with fear, and said in a tearful voice, "I...I'm waiting for someone."

The bald monk looked around furtively, finding no one around. His lewd gaze landed unabashedly on the delicate and lovely face of the Wang family's second daughter, and a wicked lust ignited in his heart.

Inside the outhouse, Fang Xiaoxiao heard the commotion outside and was so angry that her eyebrows furrowed and her teeth clenched. Pei Yan's eyes widened in fury, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked, and he growled in a low voice, "That beast, I'll definitely kill him!"

Fang Xiaoxiao quickly reached out to stop her, saying with a tense yet calm expression, "Absolutely not! Making a move now would alert the enemy!"

Completely puzzled, Pei Yan asked anxiously, "Then are we just going to let this wicked monk do whatever he wants?"

A sly glint flashed in Fang Xiaoxiao's eyes as she swiftly retrieved the "I Love a Piece of Firewood" aphrodisiac from her bosom, a slight smile playing on her lips. Pei Yan instantly understood her intention.

Just then, the second daughter of the Wang family could no longer endure the bald monk's lewdness and screamed in terror. The bald monk, far from restraining himself, became even more arrogant, lewdly laughing, "Little beauty, the louder you scream, the more excited this humble monk becomes!"

Taking advantage of the moment, Fang Xiaoxiao suddenly pushed open the latrine door and stepped out. The bald monk was startled by the sudden commotion. When he saw that the woman in front of him was exceptionally beautiful, his eyes were glued to her, and he almost drooled. A wicked idea instantly formed in his mind.

"Hehe, it's truly a blessing from heaven! Today, this humble monk has stumbled upon two beauties. Come with me!" the bald monk said, stretching out his thick arm to grab them.

Fang Xiaoxiao pretended to be trembling with fear, her beautiful eyes brimming with tears. Her delicate and helpless appearance made the bald monk's eyes light up with excitement, and his mouth almost stretched to his ears. The second daughter of the Wang family was really frightened. Her face was pale, her teeth were chattering, and she shrank tightly behind Fang Xiaoxiao.

Fang Xiaoxiao suddenly said in a coquettish voice, "Master, I'm so scared, I want to drink some wine to bolster my courage." Upon hearing this, the bald monk was so happy that the fat on his face trembled. He hurriedly handed over the wine pot in his hand and said, "Beautiful lady, drink!"

The second daughter of the Wang family was full of doubts and was about to ask a question when Fang Xiaoxiao quickly stopped her with a look, and the second daughter of the Wang family immediately fell silent. Fang Xiaoxiao took the wine pot, tilted her head back and pretended to take a sip, and then secretly put the "I Love a Piece of Firewood" aphrodisiac into the wine pot.

Upon seeing this, the bald monk snatched the wine jug and began gulping it down in a very crude manner.

Fang Xiaoxin secretly calculated the time it would take for the drug to take effect. When she felt it was about time, she grabbed the second daughter of the Wang family's hand and ran away as fast as she could.

The bald monk finally realized what was happening and tried to stop them, but he only felt extremely hot and weak, and could only watch helplessly as they ran away.

Fang Xiaoxiao and her companion ran all the way back to their room, panting heavily with lingering fear. They spent the night without saying a word.

The next morning, the other bald monks gathered together and discussed the matter.

“This bald monk committed many evil deeds, and his death is suspicious!” a bald monk said with a frown.

“Maybe it’s retribution!” another bald monk chimed in.

"But why would the horse kick him for no reason?" someone asked.

At this moment, Fang Xiaoxiao and Wang's second daughter deliberately moved closer, showing expressions of surprise and confusion in front of everyone.

Fang Xiaoxiao's eyes widened, and she said incredulously, "Oh my, how could this be?"

Wang's second daughter also feigned ignorance and said, "That's really strange!"

For the next few days, Fang Xiaoxiao and the second daughter of the Wang family were practically inseparable. But Fang Xiaoxiao knew in her heart that these bald monks were hiding a lot of shady dealings.

Every day, these women were gathered together to listen to sermons, saving them from even chores like cleaning.

That night, the darkness deepened, and all was quiet. Fang Xiaoxiao tiptoed out again, this time without the second daughter of the Wang family. Like a nimble cat, she silently arrived at the agreed-upon place and found Pei Yan.

Fang Xiaoxiao's eyes were filled with urgency as she lowered her voice and asked, "Pei Yan, have you discovered anything these past few days?"

Pei Yan frowned and said with a solemn expression, "During this time, the bald monk we encountered when we escaped from the dilapidated temple has not shown up."

Fang Xiaoxiao frowned even more deeply and asked, "Are there any others?"

Pei Yan took a deep breath and continued, "I saw a lot of bald monks guarding a temple pagoda. I figured that's where they hide their people."

Fang Xiaoxiao's gaze was firm as she solemnly instructed, "You must keep a secret watch, and inform me immediately if anything happens."

Pei Yan nodded, and with a flash, he disappeared into the night.

Fang Xiaoxiao turned around and walked back. As soon as she returned to her room, she heard the angry roar of the eldest daughter of the Wang family coming from inside.

Wang's eldest daughter stood with her hands on her hips, her eyebrows raised, and her eyes wide as saucers. She shouted, "You ungrateful brat! How dare you steal my hairpin! It was a treasure given to me by the head monk!"

Wang's second daughter, her eyes red and swollen from crying, sobbed as she protested, "Sister, I really didn't steal it."

Fang Xiaoxiao quickly stepped forward, reached out and grabbed Wang's eldest daughter, and said gently, "Sister, don't get anxious. Maybe there's a misunderstanding."

The eldest daughter of the Wang family said angrily, "What misunderstanding could there be? I've always treasured this hairpin; it's kept in a box. If she didn't steal it, who else could it be?"
