"What are you yelling about, nothing’s even happened yet, and you’re already losing your cool!"

Gao Tiezhu was a bit displeased with his wife’s panicked demeanor, so he loudly chided Ms. Zhu.

Ms. Zhu, having been scolded, immediately quieted down.

She stepped back several times, curled up in the corner, and dared not say a word.

At this moment, in the pigsty, the pigs that were originally asleep began to get up one by one.

They let out terrifying screams, and a few pigs even started climbing the pigsty, looking desperate to get out.

The roosters in the chicken coop started crowing, and the clucking resonated throughout the village.

People who heard Xing Beichen’s prophecy during the day quickly got up from their beds and hurried to Gao Tiezhu’s house to see the spectacle.

"Dad... something’s really going to happen, what should we do, should we flee!" Gao Cuihua, trembling, pointed at the pigs hanging their hooves on the pigsty.

Gao Tiezhu was already somewhat convinced by Xing Beichen’s words.

However, thinking of how he personally drove Xing Beichen away earlier, he couldn’t swallow his pride.

He could only suppress his family with his authority.

"Everyone, stay calm, isn’t it just pigs climbing the sty and chickens crowing? Who hasn’t seen or heard of these things?"

After all, Gao Tiezhu was the head of the family, and people still listened to his words.

So everyone quieted down again!

But the continuously screaming pigs didn’t stop because of it, instead, they cried even more tragically.

A few pigs started to push against the gate, and the wooden gate creaked under the pressure from their snouts.

The chickens in the coop flapped their wings and flew out.

A few flew onto the roof in the backyard, while others landed in the backyard!

"Mom, it’s bad, our chickens are going to fly away!" Gao Cuihua shouted anxiously.

Ms. Zhu panicked, the hundreds of chickens at home were their treasures.

Without the chickens, where would they get their daily food???

"What are you standing there for, hurry and catch them!" Gao Tiezhu shouted.

Several members of the Gao Family, including Ms. Zhu and the children, started catching chickens, even the hired hands in the backyard began catching them too.

But chickens are small, and coupled with this time they’re incredibly agile, two people surrounding one chicken still couldn’t catch it!

After several rounds of trying, they managed to grab only a few feathers, nothing else!

Everyone’s attention was drawn to the chickens.

No one noticed that the pigs originally pushing against the gate, together, actually managed to push open the pigsty.

With the pigsty gate open, the dozen or so pigs inside rushed out all at once.

Like lunatics, they ran into anyone in sight—

The first person knocked over by the pigs was Gao Tiezhu.

His hefty body was hit by a sow, sent flying, and landed with a dull thud.

"Ah..." Gao Tiezhu let out a miserable scream.

Then came several of the hired hands...

The pigs seemed to have eaten something, their strength was terrifying.

Even the more skilled of the hired hands weren’t spared, each was knocked to the ground and trampled several times.

Some were trampled until they spat blood and lost consciousness on the spot!

At this point, Gao Tiezhu’s backyard looked nothing like a backyard.

The farming tools, the wooden basins for washing... everything placed in the backyard was trampled by pig hooves.

"Kill them, slaughter all of them, slaughter all the pigs!"

Seeing the situation in the yard, Gao Tiezhu groaned and shouted.

The pigs seemed enraged, charging towards Gao Tiezhu one by one.

If all dozen pigs were to hit Gao Tiezhu, he would be crippled if not dead...

"Master, Master... get up quickly, the pigs are coming..." Ms. Zhu shouted while retreating.

At this point, Gao Tiezhu was lying on the ground, aching all over, unable even to get up!

So he could only shout to his hired hands, "Ah Da, Ah Er, Ah San... stop those beasts for me, stop them..."

A few people heard and, regardless of danger, all rushed over.

But a dozen people were simply no match for the dozen or so crazed pigs.

The pigs’ snouts easily overturned the few people in front, and the unlucky ones were slammed against the wall, letting out screams...

A few fat pigs finally broke through the human barricade and reached Gao Tiezhu.

Their hooves trampled onto Gao Tiezhu’s back, and all one could hear was the crack of breaking bones.

Gao Tiezhu let out piercing screams.

After trampling over Gao Tiezhu, the pigs began to ram the backyard gate.

Several pigs together broke open the backyard gate of Gao Tiezhu’s house.

Because someone had secretly opened the front courtyard gate to watch the commotion, the pigs rushed out through the front yard gate of the Gao Family.

And disappeared into the night!

The Gao Family’s backyard was filled with gloomy despair, mixed with the cries of women, the groans of men, and the screams of Gao Tiezhu...

Various sounds blended together!

In the front yard, those spectators watching the commotion covered their stomachs, laughing non-stop.

At last, heaven has opened its eyes; this Gao Tiezhu, who exploited the village and harmed the people.

This time, it was divine retribution.

If heaven opened its eyes again, it should let Gao Tiezhu die!

The crowd discussed endlessly, putting more and more trust in Xing Beichen who visited the village during the day!

After watching the commotion, everyone went back to their homes, seeking out their mothers!

Meanwhile, the Gao Family was busy calling the doctor and cleaning up the backyard.

By the time everything was settled, it was already dawn.

Gao Tiezhu lay on the bed, unmoving, his bones broken by the pigs’ hooves.

He kept asking his family to summon Xing Beichen back, to save his life!

The Gao Family could only helplessly explain.

"Master, that Daoist said he would come today at the same time as yesterday, we... we can’t find him!" Ms. Zhu said.

"Get out, all of you get out! Get out!" Gao Tiezhu was in pain all over, and even angrier hearing Ms. Zhu’s words.

But after a while, Gao Tiezhu suddenly laughed, "Luckily I was uneasy yesterday, let Nineteen follow that Daoist, so once Nineteen returns, we’ll know where the Daoist lives!"

Ms. Zhu was also excited after hearing this!

A while later, the sent-out hired hand returned.

Upon returning, he declared that Xing Beichen was a divine being.

"Master, yesterday I followed that Daoist as you said, but as soon as I reached the village entrance, I felt dizzy, and when I opened my eyes again, it was like being in paradise!"

Hearing this, Gao Tiezhu suddenly became spirited!

"Then what?" Gao Tiezhu asked!

"Then a little child came out, saying that Daoist was a living immortal, I as a mortal shouldn’t follow him!"

The hired hand bragged, elevating Xing Beichen to a certain height.

Because only by doing this, his being knocked unconscious wouldn’t be discovered by Gao Tiezhu.

And he wouldn’t be punished by Gao Tiezhu!
