Su Qiushi often sat in this rocking chair, drinking tea and basking in the sun.
After experiencing it firsthand, Su Ruyi found it to be quite good, except that it was missing a parasol.
Lan Jun was taken aback when he saw Su Ruyi.
This village doctor, whom she barely noticed, actually beat her?
And they moved her to this unfamiliar little courtyard!
Su Ruyi is backed by Cheng Weiguo, which means she has been exposed!
But why is Su Ruyi the only one in this courtyard?
Where did the others go?
Lan Jun moved silently toward the base of the wall.
If she can find a small twig in the corner, she can unlock her handcuffs and shackles!
Lan Jun moved for more than ten minutes until he reached the base of the wall.
Soon, she found a thin twig.
She maintained a calm expression, adjusted the branch, and extended it toward the handcuffs.
But suddenly her hands were empty.
The branch fell to the ground!
Lan Jun hurriedly reached out to feel around.
Because her hands were tied behind her back, she had great difficulty finding her way, and both of her arms were almost dislocated.
"This is a ghost!" Lan Jun cursed under his breath.
I can't reach that branch no matter how hard I try!
Lan Jun had no idea that it was Su Ruyi who had moved it for her.
Su Ruyi appeared to be admiring the scenery, but in reality, she was using her divine sense to monitor Lan Jun's every move.
Seeing her furtively moving towards the base of the wall, her hand groping along it, probably looking for tools to unlock the handcuffs, I broke off a small twig from the apple tree outside and placed it at the base of the wall.
Lan Jun adjusted his posture for a while before turning around.
I looked around for a long time, but I couldn't find the little branch I had seen earlier.
Su Ruyi teased her for a while, but then got bored, so she used her divine sense to control the twig and put it into her hand.
Suddenly, a hard object appeared in Lan Jun's palm; upon touching it, he found it was the small twig.
She tensed up at first, then immediately realized that she must have slipped and accidentally dropped the branch on herself.
So she manipulated the tree branch and began to unlock the handcuffs.
Su Ruyi watched helplessly as Lan Jun unlocked the handcuffs with a "click" in less than a minute.
Su Ruyi quickly used her divine sense to lock it again with a "click".
Lan Jun stood there frozen for a few seconds before starting to unlock the door again.
And so, Lan Jun opened it and Su Ruyi locked it, trying it about ten times.
Lan Jun was exhausted and covered in sweat.
The handcuffs were still on her wrists, perfectly intact.
Su Ruyi got tired of the cat-and-mouse game, and in a flash, she left the space and took the twig away again.
Lan Jun felt his palm go empty again.
At that moment, she finally realized that something was very wrong.
She looked towards Su Ruyi again, but there was only the rocking chair still rocking; Su Ruyi was nowhere to be seen!
Lan Jun shouted loudly, "Stop playing tricks! Come out!"
No sooner had she finished speaking than Su Ruyi appeared out of thin air in front of her.
Lan Jun's eyes widened instantly, fear making her feel dizzy. She stammered, "You...are you a human or a ghost?"
Su Ruyi smiled but remained silent.
Lan Jun took a few deep breaths and forced himself to say, "What...what exactly do you want to do?!"
"That's what I should be asking you, Sister Lan Jun!" Su Ruyi smiled slightly, and then, with a wave of her hand, a pile of daggers, sleeping pills, and poisons that she had taken from Lan Jun over the past few days fell to the ground with a clatter.
At that moment, Lan Jun felt a deathly chill.
With a wave of her hand, Su Ruyi conjured up a bunch of things out of thin air!
So it turned out she stole all my gear!
My plans have consistently failed because she's been sabotaging me behind the scenes!
But is this Su Ruyi a human? A ghost? Or a monster?!
Su Ruyi stretched out her hands, and a silver needle appeared in each of her palms.
Lan Jun watched helplessly as the two silver needles floated up on their own and stood in the air.
Then, it turned 90 degrees and the needle was aimed at her two eyes!
Then, they began to approach!
Lan Jun hurriedly retreated.
However, the silver needle followed her retreating rhythm, always remaining three or four millimeters away from her eyeballs.
witchcraft!
This is sorcery!
Lan Jun's atheistic values shattered into dust in an instant.
Her courage and boldness vanished instantly; cold sweat poured down her neck, and her clothes were soaked through.
No wonder... She repeatedly put sleeping pills in Su Ruyi's food, with each dose larger than the last. It would have been enough to knock out a wild boar, but she couldn't even seduce this little girl!
This... is a monster!
Looking at the needle point so close to his face, Lan Jun's eyes widened, not daring to blink: "Ruyi... sister, what... what are you doing? Let's... talk this out!"
"Fine, then tell me why you tried to harm me! You drugged me and choked me!" Su Ruyi's voice was full of mockery. "No need for excuses, I don't want to hear your nonsense!"
"..." Lan Jun fell silent instantly.
Seeing her so stubborn, Su Ru said expressionlessly, "I'll count to three. If you don't tell me, my needle will move!"
Lan Jun turned his gaze to Su Ruyi and pressed his lips tightly together.
"one!"
"two!"
"three!"
"Ah—" Lan Jun suddenly let out a shrill scream.
Su Ruyi had already manipulated two silver needles and inserted them into her eyes.
After the excruciating pain, she went blind.
When she was able to open her eyes again, her gaze had lost focus.
"My eyes..." Lan Jun collapsed to the ground, tears streaming from his dazed eyes. "How could this happen? Why..."
"Are you willing to talk now?" Su Ruyi asked calmly again.
Lan Jun's expression shifted, and he suddenly gritted his teeth.
Su Ruyi realized—she wanted to commit suicide.
Lan Jun gritted his teeth and said with his neck stiff, "You monster! I accept that I've been defeated by you! But don't forget, after I die, I'll be a ghost, and we can still fight each other!"
"Fine, if it means you can die." Su Ruyi said, then fell silent.
Lan Jun stiffened his neck and waited for several minutes, waiting for the poison to take effect.
Of course, in her perception, time was much longer.
She clenched her teeth even more fiercely several times, and with a "crack," her hollow molar shattered completely.
Then, she spat out a lot of sawdust.
"What is this taste? Why does my mouth taste like wood?" she cried out in panic.
"Because I replaced your poison with sawdust," Su Ruyi said quietly. "Sister Lan Jun, I advise you to tell the truth sooner rather than later, so you can avoid a lot of suffering!"
After saying that, Su Ruyi began to fiddle with the things she had thrown on the ground earlier.
After a rustling sound, Lan Jun felt as if his arm had been lightly pricked by something like a needle.
