Upon hearing the middle-aged man's words, Li Sisi thought to herself, "I'm doomed."
"What happened?" As expected, the old apothecary immediately asked, "Someone helped you, right? Who helped you, and where is it?"
"No one is helping us," Li Sisi flatly denied. If she said it, Yao Lao would definitely go to Wang Han.
"Feng'er." Seeing Li Sisi's firm denial, the old apothecary called out to Feng'er.
"Sister Sisi, Brother Tiezhu, I'm sorry, hypnosis." Hearing this, Feng'er stepped forward helplessly, apologized, and used hypnosis on the two of them.
Seeing that the two were hypnotized, the old man immediately asked, "Have you revealed any secrets?"
“No, I’ve never mentioned it to anyone,” Li Sisi said blankly.
Seeing this, the old apothecary nodded in satisfaction and continued to ask, "Who helped you? Did the person who helped you come back with you?"
“Wang Han helped us; he was with us.”
"Who do you think helped you?" Upon hearing Wang Han's name, Yao Lao trembled and immediately interrupted Li Sisi to ask.
“It’s Wang Han,” Li Sisi replied.
"What does he look like? Do you have a picture of him?" the old doctor asked quickly. Every time she heard this name, she would get excited. Even though she was disappointed every time she went looking for him, she would not give up. She firmly believed that Wang Han would reappear one day.
Li Sisi nodded, took out her phone, and found a photo of herself with Wang Han.
Looking at Wang Han in the photo, the old doctor couldn't help but burst into tears. He grabbed Li Sisi and asked anxiously, "Where is he? Where is he? You must know, right?"
“At the auction,” Li Sisi said blankly.
"The auction." Upon hearing this, the old apothecary immediately rushed out of the window and flew towards the location of the auction, leaving the crowd looking at each other in bewilderment.
"Zhou Li, what do we do now?" the man holding Li Sisi and the other man down asked the man who had just been standing next to the old doctor.
"The Zhang brothers and I are going after Elder Yao. You two wait here and keep an eye on the two of them," said the man called Zhou Li, before leading the two men out to chase after them.
Shortly after Zhou Li and the other two left, Zhao Yi finally found the place with his men.
"Feng'er, you're the one who told Zhao Yi the news, aren't you?" A middle-aged man who had stayed behind glared at Feng'er when he saw Zhao Yi and the others.
"Brother Zhao Yi, couldn't you have come when I wasn't here?" Feng'er said helplessly, then said to the man glaring at him, "Dad, let me explain."
"Uncle Zhang, please let Li Sisi and her brother go. If you take them back, they'll be in big trouble," Zhao Yi pleaded.
"Absolutely not, we must take them back." Uncle Zhang shook his head and said, "We must ask Old Medicine Master for help."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yi felt somewhat discouraged and muttered a complaint, "We've been guarding this tomb for generations, what is the point...?"
"Shut up!" The man called Uncle Zhang was immediately shocked and interrupted Zhao Yi, but it was too late.
“A tomb?” In a room, among the people who came to monitor the Li siblings because of Wang Han, a woman with pointed ears said to the others, “They just said they’ve been guarding a tomb for generations.”
"They are the tomb keepers, so for whom are they keeping these tombs generation after generation?" the leader asked, and everyone exchanged glances.
