Under his sister's desperate gaze, Kong Yuehui was taken away by the old woman.
There was new movement in the black box in Gu Huaiwei's arms.
After Kong Yuehui lost consciousness and was taken away, the curse on Sister Jin was automatically lifted.
After the old woman left, Gu Huaiwei ignored Kong Yuehui's sister, but prepared to go to the underground birdcage to take Xiling Ling, and then meet up with Zhou Chuan Ning and leave here.
"Why did you do this to my brother? He didn't really hurt you, did he?" The girl in the lotus-pink silk dress seemed to have endured it again and again. Her voice trembled, revealing the grief that was hard to hide. "Even if you don't want to stay, just leave. Why did you call the guide here? Even if my brother did something to you, it doesn't deserve the death penalty."
"I didn't call you."
"Who else could it be but you? I've heard about the haunted house in the amusement park. That child was taken away by the guide because of you." The girl was deeply shocked because she had witnessed Kong Yuehui being taken away after having his head smashed by the old woman. Her voice became sharp and her shoulders trembled as she put the blame on Gu Huaiwei. "I will never forgive you!"
Gu Huaiwei raised the corners of her lips slightly: "Whatever you want."
The girl shouted angrily, "Stop!" She really wanted to get an explanation from Gu Huaiwei.
Gu Huaiwei ignored her.
She didn't need to explain too much, and she didn't want to get too entangled with this stubborn girl.
The girl wanted to catch up and argue.
"Don't go." The county magistrate came out from behind the rockery. He put his hand on his daughter's shoulder and looked at Gu Huaiwei's departing back with a gloomy expression. "She didn't call the guide on her own initiative, but the manager arranged him to be by her side to clear obstacles for her.
I had already reminded that rebellious son that the castle's administrators attached great importance to the bet they had made with humans.
Let him contact the operator first. Before the bet fails and the hunting ground opens, don't use harsh tactics to offend the manager. He just didn't listen, and that's why he ended up like this. It's not worth your grief at all."
"Brother is seriously injured and may never come back." The girl's face was grim. She looked at her father seriously, a familiar yet unfamiliar look. "Even if brother is a failure, he is still an important family member to us. Everything he did was just to fulfill your expectations. He will not rest in peace until he gets justice for brother."
"Your brother was only taken away, he's not dead yet." The county magistrate's expression grew even colder. "If we seek justice, you'll be implicated as well."
"Dad, what are we to you?" The girl stared at her father, tears falling like pearls from a broken string. "You have so many children, some of whom you kicked out of the house without even remembering their names.
Mom was a sacrifice. After giving birth to us, she wanted to take us away from this place. My brother and I betrayed Mom and chose you.
Later, your mother died, and you received a new sacrifice, giving birth to new children, batch after batch, and strengthening our tribe.
But no matter how many children you had, you only kept my brother and me by your side. I always thought we were special, but the result was still the same. To you, my brother and I were no different from those children who were kicked out!
She thought that she and her brother were special.
She also thought her father was great.
The father sacrificed a lot for the entire tribe, for the town, and for them to gain a foothold in paradise.
But it wasn't until today that she suddenly realized how hypocritical her father's so-called contribution to the tribe was.
"You are emotionally unstable now and need to calm down." The county magistrate looked at his daughter, then at the pool of blood on the ground and sighed.
All previous efforts were in vain.
His two children have the best physical condition, age the slowest, and have the strongest abilities in recent years.
He screened the genes of his own children, and then combined the children with better physiques with the young and healthy ones, and then gave birth to new children to pass on the excellent genes.
But the sacrifices were just ordinary humans.
It's not much better.
After meeting Gu Huaiwei, the county magistrate finally understood why the managers of the park loved her so much.
That's simply the perfect physique.
He knew his son's character, but still held a martial arts competition to find a bride out of selfish motives.
He hypocritically reminded Kong Yuehui not to use too harsh means, just to coax her and leave the mark of the peacock feather on her body.
But the county magistrate also knew that Kong Yuehui did not want to disappoint his father, so he would definitely try his best to meet his request.
The county magistrate is loyal to the park manager.
But the administrator has been lying in the castle for too long.
This made his originally loyal heart restless.
He indulged Kong Yuehui to see how far he could go and whether the castle's managers would intervene.
Now, he got the answer he wanted.
"I'm calm." The girl lowered her hands dejectedly. She was filled with disappointment in her father. "If Daddy is unwilling to help, then I will use my own methods to redeem my brother."
When Gu Huaiwei came to the underground birdcage, she saw Xiling Ling digging a hole. When she heard someone coming, she quickly tried to grab a bunch of weeds to hide the hole.
"Don't hide, it's me."
"Miss Gu!" Xiling Ling's eyes lit up. She gripped the iron bars that held her captive with both hands, both of which were covered in blisters from digging. "I thought you didn't know I was missing! That Kong Yuehui is a super villain. He tied me up and brought me here the same day the sedan chair came to pick you up. I saw Sister Jin here. Let's go save her!"
"No need, I've already rescued them." Gu Huaiwei took out the black box. "The situation here has changed a little. It's not safe for you two to follow me outside. You go into this box first and stay with Sister Jin for a while. I'll let you out after I leave here."
"This box is so small, how can I get it in?" Xiling Ling put her index finger to her lips and looked at the small black box in Gu Huaiwei's hand with some curiosity.
Gu Huaiwei used both hands to bend the iron fence to let Xiling Ling out, and then while she was still figuring out how to use the small box, she chanted a spell and put her into the black box.
She was about to leave the county magistrate's mansion.
Kong Yuehui's sister was standing at the door, with several dazed men standing behind her, as if they had been drained of their energy, blocking her way.
She no longer wore a plain white dress, but changed into a gorgeous brocade long skirt. The hem of the skirt was embroidered with peacock feather patterns with gold thread, which was as bright as clouds and dazzling.
Her hair was tied up high, and it was adorned with lotus flowers made of pearls, shining with jewels. She had discarded the round fan in her hand and replaced it with a gorgeous feather fan, which she gently waved.
She patted her chest and said, "Don't be nervous. I won't make things difficult for you. Please call out the guide."
"However..." The girl raised her eyebrows slightly, "As the sacrifices, they want to talk to you alone."
