However, after the female assistant shouted, no one immediately jumped out to help her.
"Huh?" She looked around in confusion.
Yuan Mengge said to her, "Are you waiting for them to come out and help you? I've already caught them, and now you're the only one left. Don't waste your time, come over here yourself."
"What?" The female assistant looked at her incredulously after hearing this, then suddenly turned and ran away.
Yuan Mengge sighed as she watched her run away, saying, "I made you come all by yourself, you're so disobedient."
After saying that, he suddenly took off and rushed forward.
"Ah—" The female assistant had run less than ten meters when Yuan Mengge rushed up from behind and kicked her to the ground.
“I told you to come here by yourself, and you still ran away. Do you think you can get away?” Yuan Mengge grabbed her hair and dragged her up.
"Ah—ouch! Who...who are you? Why are you doing this? If you do this...Aro God won't let you get away with it!" The female assistant struggled and shouted at her.
Yuan Mengge laughed and said, "Is that so? Then I'd like to meet your Alok. Isn't this just a fake god that your leader made up? If it really exists, then let it out. But before that, you have to come to the prison with me first."
Then she grabbed her female assistant and walked back towards the cave.
After hearing her words, the female assistant's eyes flickered, and then she fell silent.
Because Yuan Mengge was right, this so-called Aro God is a fake god they made up to deceive people.
It's okay to fool those believers, but you can't fool these clear-headed people.
"Who are you? What are you? Are you a police officer? How do you know about this place? Did you follow us in?" The female assistant was dragged along, constantly questioning Yuan Mengge about her identity.
Her fate of being arrested is already sealed, but what she's most curious about now is who arrested her.
"Wait a minute...you're a woman, right?" The female assistant suddenly noticed something, staring at her and looking her up and down as she spoke.
Yuan Mengge did not answer her question.
The two arrived at the cave entrance, where several believers were standing.
After hearing what the man who came undercover said, their faith in the Longevity Cult was somewhat shaken, but they had not lost their trust in it.
"Really, he's guarding the door, we can't open it to rescue the cult leader."
"What should we do? We can't get in, so we can't sincerely worship the gods. Ara will definitely blame us for not being sincere enough, and what if he punishes us then..."
"That person's mother must have not had enough faith in Ara, which is why Ara did not save her."
"That must be it!"
"Should we subdue him together, and then open the door to the shrine?"
They hadn't initially intended to hurt anyone, but the thought that if the worship ceremony were disrupted, angering the gods of the Longevity Cult and causing divine punishment to fall upon them, they became afraid.
So they started to get restless.
Just then, Yuan Mengge tied several people up with ropes and dragged them all back.
Looking at the believers at the cave entrance, Yuan Mengge, to prevent any more brainwashed believers from causing trouble, held a knife in her hand and warned them.
"Don't bother me, or don't blame me for being impolite."
Seeing the knife in her hand, the believers dared not approach her directly.
The few charlatans from the Longevity Cult that she had arrested were now silenced and unable to incite others.
Yuan Mengge pushed everyone into the shrine chamber inside the cave, and looked at the man guarding the door, saying, "It seems you already know they are frauds, so why did you still come in with them?"
The man said, "I just wanted to see where their headquarters is. I heard that they take their followers to a certain place every month to hold a worship ceremony. If I find this place, I might be able to find evidence that they are deceiving people. That's why I pretended to be one of their followers and sneaked in."
Yuan Mengge said, "It's too dangerous for you to act alone like this. They've killed many people. If you're discovered, you might die in these mountains."
The man said, "Even if I die, I'm not afraid. Besides, I've already called the police. I've left some coded messages along the way, and the police will find us here soon. If I die, the police will definitely expose this gang."
When Yuan Mengge heard him say that he had called the police, her eyes lit up: "You called the police?"
That's great, then she won't have to figure out how to get these people out by herself.
After all, there were more than ten people, and she couldn't escort them all at once. She was alone, didn't have a gun, and wasn't intimidating enough. They would definitely create an opportunity to escape.
She originally planned to send these people out in batches.
Since the police are coming, she can just hand these people over to them.
The man nodded: "That's right. If I don't go out for three days, the police will find me by following my signals. If I still haven't gone out tonight, the police will move in. It's already taken us a day just to get here from outside the mountains with those swindlers, and now another day and a half has passed."
If the police arrive quickly, they should be able to get here in about seven or eight hours.
So they just need to hold on until tomorrow morning.
Yuan Mengge thought for a moment and said, "Now I have all these swindlers under my control, but those believers outside might cause trouble. We really need to be careful of them."
The man asked curiously, "You arrested everyone, so what about the others?"
Yuan Mengge said, "They were tied up in another place."
For the past few days, she has only given those people water, not food, just enough to keep them half alive.
That way they won't die, but they won't have the strength to escape.
The man looked her up and down and asked, "Did you come alone? Don't you have any companions?"
Yuan Mengge shook her head.
The man said, "You're quite bold... Were your family members also deceived by them?"
In his view, anyone who hates the Longevity Cult as much as he does must have someone in their family who has been deceived, just like him.
Yuan Mengge neither denied it nor said anything more.
The man assumed she was agreeing.
After discussing it, the man decided to stay and guard the door, leaving the knife for him to use for self-defense, while Yuan Mengge went out to keep an eye on the believers.
She warned those people to stay put and she wouldn't restrict their freedom, but if they wanted to save those swindlers, she wouldn't stand idly by.
The believers initially remained silent, focusing their attention on the wooden hut.
But when night fell, they started planning how to rescue the people.
But their plans were all disrupted by Yuan Mengge.
