Tang Li first checked the woman’s carotid artery before opening her mouth to take a look. Then she said to Qi Yihan, “She ate a poisonous plant here, trying to commit suicide.”
After saying that, she stood up and walked to the two women with hollow eyes. She asked, “I’m here to save you all. Do you want to go with me?”
After a long while, they raised their heads and looked at her expressionlessly as if they had just heard her.
Tang Li added, “We’re going out soon. If you want to go out with us, come with us.”
After a while, one of the women asked in a trembling voice, “Are you really here to take us out? How can you take us out?”
“Nothing is impossible,” Tang Li said, and a convincing aura emanated from her body.
The two women looked at her in a daze.
After a while, another woman with a mole at the corner of her eye covered her face and started crying. “Look at my face and my body. How can I live like this?”
After saying that, she covered her face and buried her head.
“No matter what, your family must be looking for you. No matter what you become, the people who really care about you definitely won’t mind.”
These words finally touched the two of them. A glimmer of hope appeared in their eyes at the same time. They trembled as they got up from the ground and looked at the woman lying there.
The woman with the mole said, “The three of us were captured by that devil at around the same time. We’ve been here for more than two years. Sister Xiangwei’s youth and beauty were sucked away by the devil a year and a half ago.
“For me, it was a year ago, and for Lu Yue, it was six months ago. After our youth was stolen, it was Sister Xiangwei who helped us continue living. I didn’t expect her to suddenly say yesterday that she couldn’t go on anymore. Then, she ate a kind of grass and died.”
The woman with the mole was called Xie Wanying. At this point, her voice had become extremely hoarse. She extended her finger towards the bones in the courtyard.
“These people couldn’t accept the fact that they were old and ugly, so they committed suicide. In the beginning, it was the three of us who buried the people who committed suicide, but the more people we buried, the more numb we became.”
After Xie Wanying finished speaking, Lu Yue added, “Sister Wanying and I were going to kill ourselves in the next few days, too.”
Then, she looked at Tang Li and asked, “Can you really take us out? That devil is not human. Can you deal with her?”
“I already dealt with her.”
“How? Are you a Taoist master?”
Tang Li did not explain and nodded. “Yes.”
When Lu Yue heard this, she suddenly started crying again.
This time, she was crying tears of joy.
Xie Wanying also started crying.
Tang Li waited until the two of them were done crying before taking them out with Qi Yihan.
When they walked out of the courtyard, the two of them turned around to take a look.
Xie Wanying asked Tang Li, “Can you find their families? Many of them came all the way from other provinces just to try out the scenes. Some of them have been here for several years. I hope that they can… return to their hometown.”
Tang Li said, “We are currently standing beneath Sui Yang road. If we want to take them out, we have to dig all the way up.”
She turned to look at Qi Yihan.
If they really dug this place up, many of the buildings on the ground might be destroyed and a great loss would incur.
Qi Yihan said calmly, “Since something happened here, the manager here has the responsibility to send them back to where they were from.”
Hearing that, Tang Li couldn’t help but shake Qi Yihan’s hand.
Qi Yihan looked at her hand and then at her curiously.
Tang Li smiled at him and said, “It’s good that you think this way. No matter what, karma is important. The good deed you’ve done today will bring you luck one day.”
Qi Yihan didn’t care if there was karma or not. To him, as long as Tang Li wanted to help them, he would.
After saying that, Tang Li said to the girls who were already walking over, “I’ll take you out now, but close your eyes first.”
They subconsciously closed their eyes.
Qi Yihan looked at her and closed his eyes.
Tang Li took out the copper bell and started ringing it. As she shook it, she mumbled something. At the same time, a wall of runes was built around them, and the wall shone brightly.
After a flash of light, the group of people disappeared.
“Alright, you can open your eyes now.”
The moment Tang Li spoke, their eyes snapped open.
“Why is it so dark?” Tang Zitong was a little afraid. “Cousin, are we out?”
“Yeah, it’s nighttime.”
Just as Tang Li finished speaking, Qi Yihan’s voice sounded. “I’ve called someone. They’ll be here soon.”
“Eh? When did you make the call?”
Tang Li was also very curious.
Qi Yihan did not say.
At this moment, light and footsteps came from afar.
At the same time, Officer Yang’s excited voice was heard. “Are you sure Fourth Master and the others are here?”
The moment Officer Yang finished speaking, the lights above everyone’s heads lit up.
The women could not stand the light and quickly covered their faces with their arms.
Qi Yihan and Tang Li stood there watching the large group of people walking over.
Among these people were Qi Yihan’s bodyguards, the manager, and a few people in uniform.
The group of people heaved a sigh of relief when they saw the two of them.
“Fourth Master, Fourth Madam, I’m so glad that you’re safe,” Manager Wu said.
He was terrified when they went missing in his management area.
After a few men in uniform walked over, one of them, a man in his forties, patted Qi Yihan on the shoulder. “When we received the news that you suddenly disappeared here, we were all shocked.”
In contrast to the man’s excitement, Qi Yihan remained expressionless.
The man took a step back and looked at Tang Li. After sizing her up, he extended his hand toward her. He exuded the aura of a powerful leader and said seriously, “You must be Qi Yihan’s wife, you’re very famous in our circle.”
Tang Li extended her hand to shake his hand. She smiled and said, “I have some knowledge about unnatural science. For example, the human body’s magnetic field and the Earth’s magnetic field. You can also treat my research as a side family of science.”
When the middle-aged man heard Tang Li, he couldn’t help but lose all his seriousness and burst out laughing. “Alright. That sounds like a legit explanation.”
After saying that, he introduced himself, “My surname is Zhu. You can call me Uncle Zhu.”
Tang Li was about to call him Uncle Zhu when Qi Yi said coldly, “Just call him Mr. Zhu.”
Tang Li thought for a moment and said, “Mr. Zhu.”
Mr. Zhu looked at Qi Yihan unhappily. “I’m twice her age. What’s wrong with her calling me uncle?”
Qi Yihan said calmly, “Do you want me to call you Uncle too?”
Mr. Zhu smiled awkwardly. “Haha… That’s not necessary..”
