The Fifth Elder was horrified and tried desperately to open his eyes. However, under the effect of the talisman, his eyes seemed to be glued shut with peach gum, and they were so heavy that he couldn't open them at all!
My body was numb and I couldn't move at all!
Fully conscious and fully awake!
In this situation, the fear in the hearts of the five elders was like over-fermented dough, expanding infinitely and magnifying, and they screamed desperately in their hearts!
...Is there anyone here! Come and save him! What on earth is that little bitch Shen Ning'er going to do to him!
Shen Ning'er stood in front of the bed, watching indifferently as a snow-white silver snake coiled around the Fifth Elder's neck, raising its head and biting at the Fifth Elder's cheek bit by bit.
——A grown man, but he maintains his face to be more delicate than a woman’s. Isn’t that disgusting?
- Don't think I didn't see the disgusting look on your face when you looked at me.
——Now your face is as ugly as mine. Let’s see how you can laugh at me. Let me let you taste the feeling of being ashamed to face people.
Perhaps because her own face was ruined, Shen Ning'er couldn't see any intact face. Even if the facial features of that face were not outstanding and ordinary, she couldn't help but want to ruin the other person's face.
Now, seeing with her own eyes that the Fifth Elder's face was so swollen that it was unrecognizable, Shen Ning'er suddenly felt a lot more relieved.
She said, "I think that little bitch Shen Qiqi must have become suspicious of your intentions, so she used this talisman that immobilizes you. On the surface, she seems to care about you and wants you to have a good rest, but in fact, she is imprisoning you to prevent you from stealing her limelight."
"I'll take this opportunity to destroy your face. I'll then blame it all on her... I've done this to you right after I came back. Let's see how she explains this to the other elders."
After Shen Ning'er finished speaking, she smiled happily, then turned into a wisp of black smoke and went out from the back window, leaving the Fifth Elder lying alone on the bed as if struck by thunder, almost fainting.
——His face!
——Shen Ning'er, this damn little bitch, actually ruined his face… How could she be so vicious!
Not long after Shen Ning'er left, the elder woke up from his coma. He turned his head and saw the situation on the bed. He was terrified and shouted "Old Five" and rushed over to save people.
At the same time, on the long street of Yuzhou City, Shen Qiqi was standing on the street with a frown on her face.
Because it accepted many people who came to seek refuge, the population in Yuzhou City increased rapidly. The long street, which was usually very busy, was now even more crowded with people coming and going, shoulder to shoulder, and extremely lively, with constant laughter and joy.
That’s right, there was constant laughter and joy.
No matter where Shen Qiqi goes, she can always hear this voice——
"Aunt Qiu, please stop looking so sad. Although our sect leader is still in seclusion, the second young lady has returned. Once she kills all those evil spirits, you can leave the city and go home."
"What? You said the second young lady is too young to do anything? Nonsense, what's wrong with being young? Who said being young means being incompetent? Didn't you see? This morning before dawn, a large group of evil spirits came outside the city gate. I heard there were tens of thousands of them, and they were all killed by the second young lady alone!"
"I heard that the second girl had a sword that could spit fire. With a wave of her arm, a rain of fire rained down on the evil spirits. The fire whooshed and burned all the ghosts in the sewers to death!"
"Oh right, the second girl is accompanied by a majestic white tiger! Oh, that tiger is so big, its eyes are bigger than my head!"
"How does it compare to the divine bird raised by the young master of the Jiang family? Is there any need to compare? Our second daughter's white tiger is definitely more powerful."
"That's right, the tiger is the king of beasts."
"The second girl is back. Now the people of Yuzhou are saved!"
...Sounds like this can be heard everywhere.
It was precisely because of the addition of these voices that Yuzhou City, which had been dull for many days due to panic and anxiety, finally came alive again.
Children are surrounding the old man selling candied haws, tiptoeing to pick the biggest one.
A coolie with a coarse cloth scarf draped around his neck walked into the braised meat shop with big feet, ordered a plate of braised meat and a bowl of wine generously, celebrating the upcoming victory in advance;
In front of a wonton shop, a woman with a homespun apron tied around her waist was happily soliciting customers.
Everywhere you look, you can see the lively and bustling atmosphere of fireworks.
Shen Qiqi looked at the smiles on the people's faces and felt a heavy weight on her shoulders, as if a huge mountain was pressing down on them.
The people trust her so much, but can she really protect this lively atmosphere for them?
The ones who coveted this excitement were not only Shen Ning'er, but also Jiuying, the world-destroying monster who had provoked the war.
Shen Qiqi felt the weight on her shoulders become heavier.
At this moment, the woman's cheerful voice reached her ears:
"Miss, are you hungry? If you are, come in and have a bowl of wontons... It doesn't matter if you don't have money. You can send it over when you have more money. There's no rush."
Shen Qiqi looked up and saw that it was the woman in an apron standing in front of the shop soliciting customers.
The woman in the apron came forward, glanced her up and down, and said with pity, "You came to the city to seek refuge, didn't you? You've suffered so much. You were such a good girl, and now look what you've become."
Shen Qiqi was stunned when she heard this, and subconsciously glanced at her clothes. After seeing this, she immediately understood why the woman in the apron didn't charge her for the wontons.
She had previously fought a fierce battle with an evil spirit outside the city gate. Although she was not injured, her face was covered in black soot, her clothes were stained, and her whole body was covered in dust, looking very embarrassed.
It’s no wonder that the woman in the apron treated her as a homeless beggar and even waived her meal money.
These are the people of Yuzhou, simple and kind.
Such simple and kind people should be treated well by life!
Shen Qiqi straightened her back with force.
We have to protect it even if we can't, even if it costs our life.
As long as she is still alive, she will protect these simple and kind people at all costs.
Shen Qiqi smiled at the woman in the apron and said, "Thank you, Auntie, but I don't have time today. Next time, when I'm free, I will definitely come and try the wontons you made."
As long as Yuzhou City is preserved, the wonton shop can survive. Don't worry, there will be plenty of time in the future.
The most important thing right now is to quickly tell the elders the reason for his father's injury and the news that Shen Ning'er is in Yuzhou City, so that the elders will not be fooled by Shen Ning'er again. After all, what that woman is best at is using all kinds of sweet words to deceive people. She can turn white into black with just one word she opens and closes.
Thinking of this, Shen Qiqi temporarily put aside the search for Shen Ning'er, called up Xie Beiming and others, and went straight home.
As a result, as soon as she stepped into the house, she saw the fourth elder rushing out in a hurry, as if his butt was on fire.
