Li Ping'an, female, 23 years old, specializes in errand-running services. Punctual, thoughtful, and meticulous, she has received countless positive reviews.
One day, Li Ping'an leaned...
Meet old friends again
In a wooden house outside the city, a family was hurriedly packing their luggage in the moonlight. Suddenly, a little girl called out, "Mom."
The middle-aged woman in a headscarf looked over and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I seem to have forgotten to tell the guests that they can't drink alcohol or think about bad things when they watch the show at night." The little girl felt that she had caused a big disaster. Suddenly, she stood there, not daring to move.
The middle-aged woman came over and touched her head. "It's okay. Even if it's a nightmare, you'll wake up in less than an hour."
"Hurry up and pack up. We have to set off when your father comes back." The middle-aged woman said softly after seeing that the little girl was in a better mood.
"Then if I meet my sisters again, I will definitely apologize." The little girl nodded.
"Okay, then you must remember their appearance carefully and don't make the mistake." The woman replied.
An old man at the door was looking out, looking anxiously, "Why hasn't he come back yet?"
"It's okay, he will be back soon." Although the old woman was worried herself, she still spoke to comfort the old man.
A man wearing brown cloth and a conical hat gradually appeared from the distance pulling a horse-drawn carriage, and everyone in the house breathed a sigh of relief.
"Are you done packing?" The man put the large package he was carrying on the table.
"We can set off now."
"Okay, let's leave early to avoid being discovered." The man loaded the things into the carriage and touched the little girl's head when he passed by.
"Once we get to Blackwood City, we can send you there to learn immortal arts. We will be relieved to have your brother looking after you."
"Then we can buy a small yard, set up a stall, and start a small business. The eldest brother won't have to run back and forth every time, and our family can be reunited."
"It's a pity for the flowers here,"
"Alas, although this flower is beautiful, who can blame me..."
"Hurry up, I see a group of bees flying in the distance, hurry up!"
As the carriage drove away, the voices of several people disappeared in the wind.
Li Ping'an watched the bizarre scene in front of her shattered, and she felt dizzy in an instant, as if she was flying in the clouds, making her feel like vomiting.
The discomfort was too severe and Li Pingan was stimulated to wake up. A buzzing sound instantly came to his ears. Li Pingan frowned. It was so noisy.
When she regained consciousness, she looked around. In the distance, there was a dark woods with some strips of cloth hanging on the trees. A house-like object was hidden in the shadows, and countless bees were circling around her.
Li Ping'an raised her hand and wanted to rub her eyes, but she saw countless black and yellow wasp-like bees crawling all over her hand. It didn't hurt, but it was creepy.
Li Ping'an looked around, hoping to find other people, but found that she was the only one here. She was a little confused for a moment and didn't know what to do with these bees.
There was a sound of footsteps coming from a distance. Li Ping'an immediately raised his head and perked up. A woman wearing a veil walked over without saying a word.
When Li Ping'an saw this man, his heart skipped a beat and he thought of what the man had said before.
The woman stopped in front of Li Ping'an and took off the veil on her head, revealing a slightly plump face. "Long time no see."
Even though Li Pingan had guessed it long ago, he was still stunned. "Sister Hua"
When the woman heard Li Ping'an call her name, she smiled and said, "You still remember me."
"Why is this happening?" Li Ping'an looked at the bees crawling all over his body, feeling somewhat puzzled.
"Well, this is a long story, but you must believe that Sister Hua will definitely not harm you." As she said that, she waved her hand, and all the hornets flew away.
Sister Hua stood in front of Li Ping'an and said helplessly: "I originally met you here, hoping to have a good chat with you, but who knew..."
"You don't know yet, who is that man in your team?" Sister Hua wanted to go up and touch Li Ping'an's head, but she dodged her.
Sister Hua didn't care and continued to ask: "Do you know who that man is? He is also an acquaintance of ours on the ship."
When Li Ping'an heard this, he was completely convinced. It was true that the more you worry about something, the more likely it will happen.
"I rescued you from him."
"Sister Hua, I understand. That's Jiuqi, right?" Li Ping'an asked loudly, seeming very excited.
Hearing Li Ping'an's answer, Sister Hua was stunned for a moment, "You know everything"
"No, I just realized it after hearing Sister Hua's reminder."
"Thank you so much, Sister Hua. If you hadn't told me, I would probably still be kept in the dark." Li Ping'an thanked Sister Hua sincerely.
"Sister Hua, let's talk later. I'm going to settle the score with Jiuqi. I'll treat you to a drink afterwards." After saying that, Li Pingan walked out angrily.
Unfortunately, before Li Pingan had gone far, a ghostly voice came from behind, "Stop."
Li Ping'an's facial features suddenly twisted together. The woman took a deep breath, turned around with a normal expression and said, "Sister Hua, what's wrong?"
"Look at you! You've forgotten what I told you on the ship again," Sister Hua complained. "Didn't I tell you you're no match for him? Why are you still so impulsive?"
"He doesn't know yet that I have seen through his true identity. I will just go over to him, and then use my white knife to attack him and my red knife to attack him. Isn't that enough?" Li Ping'an continued to make jokes and spoke of his plan with a beaming expression.
Sister Hua pondered for a moment and nodded, "Yeah, why don't you give it a try."
Hearing this, Li Ping'an couldn't help but want to laugh. He raised his foot and walked out. Suddenly, he felt a sharp pain in his heart. The pain made Li Ping'an curl up. Then he saw a bee that was bigger than the other bees crawling out. The needle on its tail was shining coldly and flew into Sister Hua's hand.
"Is that what you want me to say?" Sister Hua squatted down and looked at Li Ping'an with a mocking look in her eyes.
"Why, why?" Li Ping'an still didn't understand why Sister Hua's attitude changed so quickly. She had clearly helped to save her several times on the ship before, so why did she turn against her so suddenly?
The bee venom in Li Ping'an's body had not yet dissipated. Sister Hua's hand touched hers, unexpectedly, very gently. "Before, on the ship, you were like a rabbit that fell into a wolf's den, ignorant, fearless and naive."
"I really want to treat you as my junior,"
"But how did you treat me?" Sister Hua lifted Li Ping'an's chin and forced him to look directly into her eyes. "I told you, Du Juan, I must get it."
"It's on your body now," Sister Hua raised her hand and began to slide down from Li Ping'an's forehead, randomly tapping a few places, "Is it here, here, or here?"
Then, he stood up, his eyes cold, "Only when you die will Dujuan recognize its master again."
Li Pingan had a bad feeling when he heard this. Sure enough, Sister Hua's next sentence was, "I'm talking about death in the true sense."
"I don't know what your resurrection mechanism is, but I will try it slowly."
Li Pingan thought to himself, is this person so fickle? No, I can't just sit there and wait for death. While Sister Hua was turning her head, Li Pingan quickly released the "Exploding Octopus" and "Cuckoo" in his body and rushed towards Sister Hua.
Sister Hua turned around, and something popped out of her hand. Two balls, one black and one red, began to spin in the air. Li Pingan panicked, and despite the pain in his chest, he stood up, his face filled with shock. "What's going on?"
Seeing the two balls trapped, Sister Hua turned to Li Pingan and snorted coldly, "I came in a little later than you. Do you know what I did?"
Li Ping'an is not a fool. After hearing her say that, of course he knew what she was going to do. Suddenly, he was speechless. No, if you could get this thing, why didn't you bring it with you when you got on the boat? Then who could snatch it from you?
You're going around in circles, don't tell me you're just messing with me
Of course, Li Ping'an only dared to curse these words in her heart. After all, she was afraid that saying them out loud would irritate the psychopath Sister Hua and send her to death early.
Sister Hua raised her eyebrows and looked at Li Pingan, "You are cursing me in your heart, right?"
Li Pingan didn't dare to admit it and kept denying it, "No, I didn't."
"I advise you to curse a few more times while you still have the strength." As she said that, Sister Hua put out the things she had prepared.
Li Pingan took a look, then closed his eyes and said weakly, "Sister Hua, don't we have a gentler way? Do we have to fight to the death? Can't I just give it to you?"
Hearing Li Ping'an's innocent words, Sister Hua smiled, holding a scalpel in her hand, and turned to look at Li Ping'an, "If it can really be sent out like you said, I won't be willing to kill you."
"But, but if you try like this, what if you never get any results?" Li Pingan was still trying to persuade Sister Hua to give up the idea. "Maybe, maybe there's a way to transfer Du Juan to you?"
Sister Hua's tone turned cold, "Can't you find out?"
"I don't intend to try it out." As long as she died enough times, and died tragically and painfully enough, she would eventually be unable to resist seeking relief.
Sister Hua only said half of her words. Li Ping'an thought about it carefully before he figured out her hidden meaning.
No, I can't wait until she has dealt with everything before sharpening the knife to attack me.
Li Ping'an felt the toxins in his body, but it was okay, he could bear it.
While Sister Hua was facing away from her, Li Ping'an quietly retreated. Feeling that she had almost covered the area, she started running. She didn't know where to run, but she didn't care. She just ran and talked later.
The moonlight was shrouded in mist, and the already dim forest became even darker. Li Ping'an didn't know if he was running in the right direction. The surroundings became quiet, and he could only hear the sound of his own heavy breathing.
Sister Hua heard the movement behind her but didn't react. She hummed a song as she put everything in place. Then she said to the figure hidden in the shadows, "Go, drag her back."
A nimble figure rushed towards the direction where Li Ping'an disappeared.
