Fat Tiger had previously analyzed with her that Zhuang Feifei's space leaving her body was likely to return to the bloodstone necklace and then be bound to someone else again through a blood oath.
Li Hongying is now asking Zhuang Feifei for the bloodstone necklace, which means that Li Hongying has already obtained Zhuang Feifei's fifth drop of blood, but has not yet obtained Zhuang Feifei's bloodstone necklace. She still needs to find the bloodstone necklace to have a chance to obtain the space.
She went to the county town this morning. She doesn't know when Li Hongying obtained Zhuang Feifei's fifth drop of blood, or what happened in between that caused Li Hongying to not get the bloodstone necklace in time and instead have to come back to ask Zhuang Feifei for it.
She used telepathy to contact Black Tiger, who was separated by a wall.
[Black Tiger, Zhuang Feifei doesn't have that mole on her collarbone anymore, right?]
Black Tiger immediately relayed the information it had received to its master: "Master, there are none left."
【Oh, it seems that while we were away, Li Hongying was almost successful, only lacking the bloodstone necklace. While the two of them are busy dealing with each other, quickly search Zhuang Feifei's house to see if the bloodstone necklace is there.】
Yes, Master.
Black Tiger glanced at the two women and quietly slipped into Zhuang Feifei's room.
With only four rooms, Black Tiger easily patrolled them all using his treasure-hunting skills.
However, the results of the inspection were very disappointing.
It then cleverly clung to the base of the wall and searched the yard. The chances of finding it in the yard were already smaller than in the house, and unsurprisingly, the bloodstone necklace was nowhere to be found.
[Master, I've searched Zhuang Feifei's entire house, but I still can't find that bloodstone necklace.]
Luo Jingyan frowned slightly: "Since it's not at home, it must be hidden outside by Zhuang Feifei. Keep an eye on them a little longer; perhaps you can get information about its whereabouts from Zhuang Feifei."
Yes, Master.
In order to make Li Hongying give up on her as soon as possible and stop bothering her, Zhuang Feifei did not put up a strong resistance.
"Li Hongying, I really don't have any chicken-blood stone necklace. Asking me again is pointless."
I don't believe it.
The system told her that Zhuang Feifei had it, so Zhuang Feifei must have it. The system and she were on the same side, and what the system told her couldn't be false.
"You say you don't have it, but do you dare let me search your house?"
"Why should you search my house? What if you mess up my things and take them away?"
"I only want the bloodstone necklace. If you don't let me search, I'll slash your neck. If I don't find the necklace today, I won't let you off the hook. I'll haunt you every day."
Zhuang Feifei reluctantly agreed: "I can let you search, but you have to give me two yuan. I absolutely cannot let you search for free, otherwise who will compensate me for my losses?"
"Okay, here you go."
Li Hongying pretended to check her pockets, but Liu's mother was strict, and she didn't have a single penny in her pocket.
She bent down and quickly picked up a wooden stake from the ground, then smashed it on Zhuang Feifei's head, knocking her unconscious.
After Zhuang Feifei fainted, Li Hongying closed and locked the front door, then went into Zhuang Feifei's room to search for her.
Zhuang Feifei's house was quite large, but there wasn't much stuff inside, so Li Hongying quickly searched the whole place.
There was no trace of the bloodstone, and not even any of the other jewelry was found.
She thought for a moment. Zhuang Feifei probably wouldn't hide such a valuable item as the bloodstone necklace in a regular place. So, she searched everywhere she could think of: the kang hole, the corners of the walls, the firewood pile in the kitchen, the fire hole under the pot. But she still couldn't find the bloodstone necklace.
Where exactly did Zhuang Feifei hide the things?
She was at a loss and feeling frustrated when she glanced at Zhuang Feifei on the ground.
To find out the whereabouts of the bloodstone necklace, we must start with Zhuang Feifei.
She helped Zhuang Feifei into the house, placed her on the kang (a heated brick bed), and sat on the edge of the kang herself, waiting quietly for Zhuang Feifei to wake up.
She also tied Zhuang Feifei up with rope and stuffed a rag into her mouth, so that if Zhuang Feifei woke up, she would still be at her mercy.
Two hours later, Zhuang Feifei slowly woke up and saw Li Hongying sitting in front of her as soon as she opened her eyes.
She tried to speak, but when she opened her mouth, she found that it was stuffed with rags, and could only make muffled noises.
Her hands and feet were also tied up by Li Hongying, and she couldn't move.
Li Hongying yelled at her menacingly, "Tell me where you hid the things. If you don't tell me, I won't let you go."
Zhuang Feifei shook her head and glared at Li Hongying, as if to say, "You've covered my mouth, how am I supposed to say anything?"
Li Hongying raised her hand and removed the rag from Zhuang Feifei's mouth: "Zhuang Feifei, I'm warning you, I must get that bloodstone necklace. If you don't tell me, I'll drag you into the mountains tonight and feed you to the wolves."
Zhuang Feifei snorted coldly.
"Fine, I'll tell you then. Anyway, that space can't come back to me. I've told you where it is; whether you can find it or not depends entirely on your luck. I left it in the mountains, in a very deep canyon. Go find it."
"Which canyon?" Li Hongying's eyes lit up immediately.
"I can't remember exactly which one it was. There are so many canyons in the mountains, the terrain is so complicated, and there are forests everywhere. I just randomly picked one and threw it in. Those valleys all look almost the same. How could I remember clearly? I just remember that after going up the mountain, I went quite far in, deep into the mountains. If you want to look for it, go ahead."
Li Hongying said resolutely, "As long as I can get the space and the supplies inside, what do a little risk and hardship matter? Once I find it, the hard times will be over."
She had been planning and strategizing for so long, and now all that was left was to find the necklace.
Hearing her words, Zhuang Feifei couldn't help but feel smug and secretly mocked Li Hongying.
Li Hongying, you still dream of supplies inside? It's just an empty shell; there's not even a single grain of rice left. Want supplies? Dream on!
Seeing Li Hongying's delusional fantasies and thinking about Li Hongying's frustration after her plan failed, she actually felt a little comforted.
She didn't tell Li Hongying which canyon it was in; there were so many canyons in the mountains, she told Li Hongying to just search around.
Given the complex and treacherous terrain deep in the mountains, and the frequent appearance of wild animals, Li Hongying would definitely encounter many dangers if she went in. If she encountered wild boars or wolf packs, there was a high chance she wouldn't be able to come back.
