As mentioned before, the stubborn old man spent time outside when he was young.

It wasn't until he was injured that he returned to the village. The stubborn old man honestly married a wife and settled down.

But what the people in the village didn't know was that the stubborn old man's injury made it impossible for him to have any more children for the rest of his life.

From the initial disbelief to the subsequent confusion, the stubborn old man never dared to tell his wife the news, for fear that she would leave him.

The wife, who was unaware of this, just thought it was all her fault, and instead felt deeply guilty about the old man.

Especially as they grow older, both husband and wife are eager to have children of their own, and they do a lot of things like seeing doctors and taking medicine, burning incense and worshiping Buddha.

However, the results have never been ideal.

So when she got older, the stubborn old man's wife became particularly fond of children because of her empathy, and she often raised cubs of various animals at home.

Perhaps out of guilt, the stubborn old man, who was always stubborn, was quite tolerant of his wife in this regard.

He was busy in various ways to meet his various requirements, and even asked other villagers for help several times, just to satisfy his wife's desire to raise animal cubs.

By chance, the stubborn old man bought a pair of captured civet cats from an Orion—a pregnant civet cat couple.

According to Orion, he originally only caught the pregnant female civet cat.

But what he never expected was that just when he was about to close the net and go down the mountain, this male civet cat took the initiative to appear in front of him.

It is precisely because of this special spirituality that the hunters who rely on the mountains do not dare to deal with the pair of civet cats easily, for fear of revenge from mountain gods and mountain ghosts.

Therefore, after understanding that the stubborn old man was just buying a "pet" for his wife, Orion decisively threw the pair of hot potatoes to him.

If the story develops to this point, at best it would be that the stubborn old man and his wife adopted a civet cat couple who are extremely humane and extremely loving.

However, not long after adopting the civet cat couple, the stubborn old man and his wife discovered that something seemed not right.

Because every day at midnight, they seemed to hear whispers coming from the room next door, as if someone was talking at a deliberately lowered volume.

As a result, the two of them observed for a while and discovered that the pair of civet cats they adopted seemed to be able to speak human language?

Not only that, the three little civet cats born to this pair of civet cats also seem to be able to speak human language.

And because they spent a lot of time with the old man's wife, the human language was smoother than that of their parents.

Shock, doubt, fear...

Although the stubborn old man wanted to drive these "monsters" out of his home, he could not resist his wife's tearful pleas, so he could only acquiesce in the existence of these strange civet cats.

Since then, the stubborn old man and his wife have reached a wonderful tacit understanding with these civet cats.

This tacit understanding lasted until the pair of civet cats died suddenly one night, leaving only three crying little civet cats, all alone and relying on each other.

"A civet cat who was born to refine the horizontal bones and open the throat orifices?"

After briefly understanding the origins of these three civet cats, the young man in Tsing Yi suddenly remembered a huge "loophole" in this story.

"Then how did you disguise yourself as the old man's son?"

It would be okay if there were only three civet cats. After all, civet cats that live longer are rare, but as long as they don't make too much noise, usually no one will notice them.

But according to the civet cats themselves, they have lived in the stubborn old man's house as "human beings" for more than ten years.

It wasn't until the stubborn old man's wife passed away that the stubborn old man gradually "kicked" them out of the house.

"That...because we can 'transform'."

After hearing the question from the young man in green, it was the largest civet cat who spoke.

"On the night when our biological parents failed to transform, we gained this ability to 'transform'."

The raccoon cat brother first glanced at the young man in green timidly, and after making sure that the young man had no objection, he transformed into a young man.

From between the young man's brows, you can vaguely see what the stubborn old man looked like when he was young.

"Huh? Transformation?"

His eyes suddenly widened. The young man in green never expected that these three cute civet cats could actually turn into human forms.

You know, spirits like the young man in green, who have been practicing for nearly a hundred years, are still unable to completely transform into human form.

How could these three civet cats, who were only in their early twenties at most, possess such outrageous talents?

"Wait a minute, this isn't a transformation!"

Just as the young man in green was surprised, he suddenly noticed that this three-civet cat didn't seem to have completely opened its nine orifices.

In other words, these three civet cats do not even have nine complete orifices, but those that have been opened form a subtle harmony.

The young man in green had experienced this feeling before. It was the feeling that the mandrill felt when he used the Pure Yang True Fire.

"This is... supernatural power?!"

"You mean, your three sons are actually three civet cats in disguise?"

Shocked, Butcher Zhang suddenly stood up from his stool, his eyes not concealing his shock.

In a sense, Butcher Zhang had watched the three sons of the stubborn old man grow up, so naturally he couldn't believe that they were actually three civet cats disguised as humans.

"Those three boys have a very magical transformation ability. It's not difficult to hide it from you."

His eyes were full of nostalgia and pride. At this moment, the stubborn old man finally let go of all the defenses in his heart and spoke to Butcher Zhang from the bottom of his heart.

"It's just that, although those three boys can make their bodies grow up slowly, their minds are still no different from those of children."

"In addition, I don't have a few more years to live, so in order to let them live independently as soon as possible, I kicked them out of the house."

When he said this, the stubborn old man's tone was filled with both relief and regret.

Fortunately, the three boys can still live independently like human beings even if they are kicked out of the house.

Unfortunately, I may not be able to see the day when my three sons truly grow up.

The gap in outlook and mentality brought about by the difference between men and monsters cannot be made up for in a short time no matter how hard the stubborn old man tries to encourage the young man.

"In other words, the disappearance of poultry has nothing to do with your three sons?"

Zhang Tutu, who was keenly aware of this, suddenly changed his expression and his voice became serious.

"Then...the monster Pei boldly mentioned is still hiding in the village?"
