Upon hearing this, Luo Cheng was slightly alarmed. After all, the two had been companions for a day, and he was naturally closer to Xiao Wang than to others. So he disregarded the awkwardness from before, shook Xiao Wang's thin shoulder, and demanded, "You bastard, where's Bai Wan? Quickly take out Bai Wan!" Luo Cheng's consideration was simple: to heal himself as soon as possible might eliminate the possibility of transforming into a 'demon'.
Xiao Wang wouldn't listen to anyone's advice; he kept flirting with Luo Cheng!
"Look at the ground!" Tai Er exclaimed in horror.
As they looked over, they saw that under the moonlight, Xiao Wang's shadow was gradually fading, like a faded ink painting, about to dissolve into the ground.
The older woman gritted her teeth, reluctantly took out half a white pill, turned her head and stuffed it into Xiao Wang's mouth. "Success or failure hinges on this. If it doesn't work, then it's Xiao Wang's fate! Oh, by the way, you have to prove to me that my white pill was lent to him."
Although the nature of her work has made her accustomed to life and death, it doesn't mean she would be indifferent to life. If she has the opportunity to save someone, she will never stand idly by.
Xiao Wang was undoubtedly lucky; the white pill healed his wounds and stopped his transformation.
No one knows what Xiao Wang will become after all the shadows disappear, but no one is willing to gamble on that possibility.
Luo Cheng said with lingering fear, "This Xiao Wang is already terrifying enough. If he were to transform completely, he would devour us men alive!"
Xiao Wang lay on the kang (a heated brick bed), gradually waking up. His once beautiful face returned to its normal, square, masculine features. He covered his head, groaned twice, and woke up, saying, "What a terrible sleep! My whole body aches..." He barely finished speaking before he sat up abruptly and lay back down, rubbing his forehead with the back of his hand, muttering curses, "What a bizarre nightmare! It's disgusting to the core!"
The people inside had sharp ears and eyes and heard everything clearly. Lianlian smiled gently, "It really wasn't a dream! Look how much Brother Luo kissed you, his neck is all red!"
Indeed, it must have taken a lot of effort to kiss Luo Cheng, a rough and dark-skinned man, until he had several red marks.
The two men on the kang (a heated brick bed) immediately sprang up like monkeys climbing a tree, creating a great distance between them so much that they didn't even dare to make eye contact.
Du Lanshan glanced silently at the delicate, smiling girl beside him. Indeed, the more unassuming someone is, the more you shouldn't underestimate them! His words were a blow to the two tough, hardened men.
Lianlian ignored the gazes falling on her and just smiled, "I want to see if Brother Wang has any memories, otherwise, who should I ask for Big Sister's White Pills!" Her tone was gentle, and even though she was helping someone collect a debt, it was hard to dislike her.
They were just strangers who met by chance. The importance of half a pill is self-evident. If something happens to Xiao Wang or he leaves first, why should the older sister bear the loss? Just because she is kind-hearted?
The older woman patted her on the shoulder, touched. "Good sister, thank you for thinking of me!"
Xiao Wang scratched his head. He had come here pretending to have amnesia to escape the awkward situation, but Lianlian reminded him that once he entered this place, he might meet fewer and fewer good people, so he should cherish what he had!
He took the white pill, carefully divided it in half with a medicine divider, returned it to the older woman, and expressed his gratitude to the companions who helped restrain him.
His experience was actually quite simple. On the bridge, after being attacked by an unknown creature, his foot, though treated simply, became increasingly numb and painful, and his whole body felt warm. So, after noticing that Luo Cheng had fallen asleep, he quietly opened the window.
Unexpectedly, the moment the moonlight streamed into the room, a sudden change occurred. He felt the burning pain of flames from the wound, and with virtually no power to resist, he lost his mind, like a soul floating above his body, looking down at himself as he gradually changed his expression and became entangled with Luo Cheng.
Xiao Wang frowned, his smile vanishing. Having passed the most awkward stage, in order to solve the mystery, he simply spoke his mind, "It's strange, but at that time I was really single-mindedly trying to seduce Brother Luo." He looked out the window; the small river was damp and cool, making the night air crisp and refreshing. The crescent moon lay on the river's surface like a small hook, inexplicably stirring his heartstrings.
He said softly, "I want Brother Luo to cross the river with me!" A more realistic way to express this would be that he wanted Luo to be the one he longed for, the one who would be at his feet, and to cross the river with him.
“If we let your injuries heal on their own, you’ll become a complete beauty, and I’ll be completely ‘bewitched’ by you, right?” Luo Cheng said in a deep voice. With their lives at stake, there was no need for the two grown men to dawdle and argue about who would suffer a loss or who would gain an advantage. They quickly straightened their attitude and began to analyze the current situation with the others.
"First, you can't get injured. Second, you can't leave the Beauty Village on your own. Third, you can get some hints from the steward, such as not to open the windows at night." Du Lanshan concluded, "Given this situation, the village across the river is probably not inhabited."
The older woman spoke up at the right moment, her brows furrowed, "However, there is a 50% chance that the starting point of the Gate of Reincarnation is in the Rich Village."
“I suggest we don’t launch a direct attack.” Lianlian sat on the kang (a heated brick bed), fiddling with the water glass in her hand. “We can be patient and spend a few days getting to know the villagers. Everyone’s White Pills are scarce, so it’s necessary to be cautious.”
One injury could lead to a chain reaction. There were six of them in total. Even without the villagers' help, they couldn't withstand the internal strife.
Lianlian's suggestion was widely praised, and the six of them simply huddled together in one room and barely managed to get some rest for the night. The next morning, before the village chief could wake them up, they got up and gathered together to discuss how to break out of the village separately and gather information.
Du Lanshan bluntly stated that they could be bribed.
What does the Beauty Village lack? Food!
They used food as capital, first exchanging it for the villagers' labor to wear down their guard, and then taking advantage of their unpreparedness to obtain information.
The idea is good, but the defenders don't have much to spare.
Of course, apart from Du Lanshan, who has a convenience store background, the other five clearly looked troubled.
...Oh, oh, oh, ten minutes...
