"Bang"

"Bang"

...

...

They were curled up haphazardly on the ground, their faces contorted in pain, their hands clutching their injuries, crying out, "Ouch, damn it, it hurts so much!"

Qin Zhiluo stepped on the scarred man's neck with her high heels, "Hand over your phone!"

The scarred man, trembling, handed over the phone, pleading, "My lady, I was wrong, please let me go!"

Qin Zhiluo held her phone, sat in the car, took a deep breath, and dialed the number.

"Who is it?" came a cold, hard voice.

Qin Zhiluo touched her head, already sensing her brother's anger. "Brother, it's me."

Long Yanli's fingers stiffened slightly, and he said in a gentle yet anxious tone, "Baby, where are you?"

...

...

The propellers cut through the hot, dry air with a deafening roar as a large helicopter slowly hovered over the desert.

The helicopter landed not far away, and the cabin door slowly opened. Long Yanli stepped out first and strode towards Qin Zhiluo.

"Brother!" Qin Zhiluo was already frozen stiff and immediately rushed into Long Yanli's arms.

Long Yanli held her tightly, feeling the coldness in her arms, and took off his coat to put it on her.

"Sis! Are you alright?!" Qin Ji rushed over immediately.

Guandu looked at the dozen or so people squatting around the fire roasting meat and smiled, "There's even takeout in the desert?"

Lu Ze and Bo Tingxuan, who had been worried, were relieved to see this comical scene.

"Baby, are you still cold?" Long Yanli wrapped her up tightly, making sure not a breath of wind got in.

The scarred man stepped forward obsequiously, "Heroine, the meat is ready."

Qin Zhiluo nodded, "Brothers, come and try it, their cooking is excellent!"

Long Yanli sat on the withered tree trunk with the little girl in his arms, took a bite from her hand, and said, "Not bad."

Qin Ji ate heartily, a very satisfied expression on his face. "This is really good. Where is your shop located? I'll definitely come here when I have time."

The scarred man and his companions didn't dare utter a word, cowering timidly beside the car, occasionally stealing glances at Qin Zhiluo.

Lu Ze smiled. "They are mercenaries."

Long Yanli gave them a deep look, which frightened them so much that they immediately lowered their heads. They couldn't afford to offend him!

Qin Ji ate the barbecue with a puzzled look in his eyes. "Are mercenaries turning to barbecue restaurants now? The industry is so bad."

Bo Tingxuan couldn't help but smile. "It's a matter of necessity."

The darkest-skinned one hunched over and shuffled over to Qin Zhiluo. He raised his hand to wipe the blood from his face, but then, afraid of appearing disrespectful, he withdrew it halfway up and bowed, saying, "Heroine, the meat is all cooked. Can we leave now?"

Qin Zhilu smiled and said, "Get lost."

They immediately jumped into the car and sped away.

Qin Ji said with a regretful expression, "I haven't left my contact information yet!"

Long Yanli wiped the little girl's mouth and said, "Baby, let's go home."

Qin Zhiluo nodded.

After cleaning up the place, Long Yi took the remaining barbecue back with him; it was really delicious.

...

...

"Master, I'll go fetch a doctor!"

"Get out, all of you get out!" Zi Ye curled up on the ground in agony.

His eyes were bloodshot, his eyeballs filled with terrifying blood vessels, his mouth twitched uncontrollably, and he suddenly burst into laughter. Pain and madness intertwined, and his perverted appearance was chilling. It was as if he was enjoying some kind of perverse pleasure in this pain, and he rolled and twisted on the ground.
