    I suddenly remembered Wang Dazhu and his mother, who had come back from the dead, and then I thought of the terracotta figures that Wang Dong had accidentally smashed. Could they be connected? "Could it be that Wang Dazhu and his mother returned as terracotta figures?" I looked at the plump aunt with complicated feelings; she was still smiling smugly. "Hehe, you actually found out. But there are more than just them as terracotta figures." What did that mean? Could it be...? Before I could think any further, the plump aunt said it herself: "Many people in your village have already been replaced." No wonder when they saw the corpses were terracotta figures, the villagers weren't panicked or terrified, but chose to believe the plump aunt, thinking I was behind it. It turned out that a large portion of them were also terracotta figures, and the plump aunt was with them, so naturally they sided with her. This was troublesome. I didn't know the purpose of these terracotta figures, and rashly taking them out of the village might cause even greater trouble. The plump aunt had anticipated this, and her smug tail was practically wagging in the air, but I wasn't afraid of her. "So what if they're terracotta warriors? They're utterly harmless!" I made a slapping motion, signaling her not to forget. "Wang Dong could kill one with a single slap. While I'm not as strong as Wang Dong, dealing with them won't be a problem." The plump aunt's eyes turned cold, then she smugly raised the corners of her mouth again: "You think the Thousand-Handed Buddha's terracotta warriors are only this strong? The ones Wang Dong killed were just defective ones. The real terracotta warriors are far more powerful than you humans." The plump aunt laughed heartily, her eyes gleaming red. I immediately grasped the key point: "What do you mean by 'you humans'? Aren't you human?" The plump aunt didn't speak, but Xue Tinghan's sharp eyes recognized her true nature: "She's not human, she's the Gray Fairy." The Gray Fairy? So she's a rat. No wonder she's so sharp-tongued. "So, you brought the rats to the dry well? You killed Wang Dazhu and the others too? You're the Gray Fairy who wants revenge on our village?" I frowned, sensing something was terribly wrong. If the plump aunt really was the Gray Immortal, then my previous plan had been far too difficult for me. She probably wanted to tear me apart right now; why would she want to make peace with me? "Since you've recognized me, I won't hide it anymore. That's right, I am the Gray Immortal. You harmed my descendants, and I will make you pay with your blood!" The plump aunt angrily waved her hand, causing the surrounding air to vibrate. The words "blood for blood" struck my mind like a demonic chant, echoing... The lingering sound rippled through my head, buzzing like someone was endlessly striking a bell or drum. My head was throbbing with pain. Xue Tinghan stood beside me, supporting me, and the sounds in my head slowly subsided, but I was still dizzy. Xue Tinghan gently said, "Cover your ears." I immediately covered my ears tightly. Xue Tinghan then produced a wooden fish from somewhere and began to strike it. The steady, rhythmic sound of the wooden fish instantly drowned out the buzzing noise made by the fat aunt, who let out a miserable scream. "I won't let you get away with this!" And vanished without a trace. The men who came with her were all paralyzed on the ground, broken into pieces. So they were all terracotta figures; no wonder they wouldn't drink the chicken soup. Right, can't terracotta figures eat? Maybe this method can be used to distinguish between real people and terracotta figures. I excitedly rushed out, ready to have the village chief gather all the villagers and treat them to a big meal. Xue Tinghan suddenly appeared in front of me, blocking my way. "What's wrong?" I asked him curiously. I still had important business to attend to; why was he stopping me? Did he think my method wouldn't work? Xue Tinghan lifted me back to the table like a chick, saying, "You haven't eaten yet. Eat your fill before you go." I was speechless. So this guy was just worried I hadn't eaten enough. And he acted so domineering, leaving no room for negotiation. I couldn't disobey him, so I obediently sat down, finished my meal, and then left. But I'd already eaten all the food, so what was I going to offer the villagers? Xue Tinghan said he'd take care of the food, and told me to make it a big affair and invite everyone at once to avoid trouble. I went without worry, feeling quite pleased with myself: He'd finished his own business and was coming to help me? With him as my backer, what did I have to worry about? Soon, the villagers arrived one after another, filling several large tables. Except for Wang Dazhu and his mother, and the village chief's family, everyone was there, making a total of five large tables. My family only had one large table; the other four were brought from home by Wang Dong and Uncle Feifan. They were my two most capable assistants in the village now. The banquet began, and as usual, I exchanged some polite words. The villagers all flattered me, with Wang Dong and Uncle Feifan practically praising me to the skies. I raised my glass and toasted everyone: "Enough talk, it's all in the wine. I'll drink to you all." Most of the people at the table picked up their glasses. Some said they didn't drink, so I smiled and suggested they drink tea instead, which they readily agreed to. This was strange; could terracotta warriors drink alcohol? I remained still and continued to observe. Many people were starving, and upon hearing that they could eat, the food on the table was devoured in the blink of an eye, not even enough for a small treat. Xue Tinghan brought some more food and placed it in the kitchen. I pretended to go to fetch some dishes and reported the situation to Xue Tinghan in the kitchen: "I just observed carefully, and everyone is eating seriously; no one is skipping a meal. Could my previous assumption have been wrong? Can terracotta warriors eat?" Xue Tinghan pondered for a moment and asked, "Are you sure everyone ate? Including the elderly and children?" I suddenly realized that many children hadn't come to the table, and those who were weren't eating seriously; some were waiting to be fed by adults. The elderly were slow and couldn't compete with the young people; although they had chopsticks, they didn't eat much. Could the terracotta figures be among the old man and the child? Xue Tinghan didn't speak, letting me figure it out myself. I knew he wanted to test my abilities. I'd already received his guidance, so I couldn't rely on him anymore. Who the terracotta figures really were, I'd have to find out for myself. After bringing the dishes out of the kitchen, Wang Dong was waiting at the kitchen door. He mysteriously pulled me aside and said, "Sister Wei, I've noticed something's off with Lin Feng's family." I lowered my voice like him and asked, "What happened to them?" Wang Dong said he saw his wife secretly vomit up all the food. Lin Feng himself was also acting suspiciously. But I clearly remembered Lin Feng eating with gusto. Lin Feng was Wang Cuiya's son-in-law, one of the few outsiders in our village, and he didn't usually interact with others. I heard he had some grudges with Wang Dong…
