After saying that, he crawled back into the room, and lay on the mat without even taking off his coat, hoping to paralyze the mountain grandmother and let her relax her vigilance against herself. But Grandma Shan squinted at the man and said disdainfully, "You guy, are you looking for a chance to escape?" The man felt that he had nothing to hide, and that there was only a dead end to stay in, so he desperately fled from the mountain grandmother's house, and at this time the mountain grandmother also recovered her true face, and with her powerful demon power, she easily caught the poor man and used it as a delicious meal.
