Chapter 344: Wang Yanji appears! Yuan Shanjian reunites in the secret room
Zhou Ying sighed repeatedly, and reached out with great effort to turn the mechanism behind the shrine, revealing a secret room. He Zhaojun and Shao Shang looked at each other and decided to help Zhou Ying to a safe place to give birth first.
Long Feibai had been holding back on his strength. He was a doctor and didn't want to hurt more people's lives. But Lou Yu kept pestering him, so he moved his fingertips and a golden needle flew out, hitting Lou Yu right in the middle of her eyebrows. Lou Yu fell to the ground like a noodle, and it was unknown whether he was alive or dead.
"Come in quickly!" He Zhaojun grabbed the back of Long Feibai's clothes and dragged him into the secret room. The door slowly closed and the few people were temporarily safe.
Long Feibai immediately squatted down to check on Mrs. Lou's condition, frowning slightly, because he didn't have many medicines and instruments on hand, only a small medicine box with all the necessary tools to ensure her safety.
He twisted his ankle accidentally when he fell just now, and now it is difficult for him to even stand, but he can't take care of himself at all.
He Zhaojun took out the tinderbox she carried with her, blew on it, and lit it, illuminating a small area nearby. Shao Shang exclaimed, "There's another person there!"
When the two men ran closer, they found that the man in front of them, tied with iron chains and with a bloody face, was actually Yuan Shanjian.
"Yuan Shen! How did you get locked up here?" Shao Shang went to check his injuries. Fortunately, most of them were superficial injuries and he was still conscious.
Yuan Shen opened his eyes and saw that it was Shao Shang. He was a little bit unconvinced, but soon, he frowned anxiously: "I found Tian Shuo lying in ambush here, waiting for the Third Prince to pass by, intending to kill him with kerosene. Don't worry about me, leave quickly and warn the Third Prince!"
He shook the chains and looked at He Zhaojun excitedly: "Take Shao Shang away first, go quickly!"
Shao Shang shook her head: "Yuan Shen, don't say such discouraging words. If you want to leave, let's leave together!" She picked up the long knife beside her and chopped at the iron chain on Yuan Shen's wrist, but the chain did not move at all.
"There's no other way. Cut off his hands and feet first, and then I'll reconnect them after taking him away." Long Feibai suddenly spoke from the side, and his words were so horrifying that Yuan Shen refused again and again.
He struggled hard, his wrists bleeding from the shackles. "You can't take revenge on me just because I laughed at your poor Mandarin speaking!"
"Just do as he says." He Zhaojun pulled out the dagger from her leg and slashed down. Yuan Shen screamed, but the pain he had imagined didn't come, and his wrist felt relieved.
He Zhaojun used the dagger in her hand to chop the thumb-thick iron chain as if she was cutting melons and vegetables. The cut was very neat and the long iron chain fell off with a sound.
"What a fast knife." A female voice came from the shadows behind the crowd. She held a torch in her hand and lit the lamp oil beside her. A series of flames lit up, and at the end was Lou Ben's spirit tablet.
He Zhaojun pressed the dagger into Yuan Shen's hand, signaling him to cut the other chains himself. She turned to look at Wang Yanji: "You finally showed up, Wang Yanji."
Wang Yanji's face was half-smiled, and her strange expression made He Zhaojun very uncomfortable: "You are no longer the Sister Yanji you once were. I dare not recognize you anymore."
"Who is the same as they were back then? You've changed too." Wang Yanji looked back fondly at Lou Ben's memorial tablet, her eyes revealing nostalgia. "Besides, I've already died once. The river water is cold, but after losing my child, my heart is even colder."
He Zhaojun scowled coldly, "So, you're going to implicate Zhou Ying and let her die here too? Your revenge is completely illogical!"
