Chapter 292 My Body is Super Useful
Just when she had more than a hundred talismans in her hand, a faint but clear sound of footsteps came from the quiet secret room.
Ye Linglong paused with the pen in her hand, and she grabbed Chen Qiyuan and pulled him in front of her to block herself.
Chen Qiyuan was so frightened by the sound that he was shaking like a sieve. Now he had to stand in front of Ye Linglong, and his mentality collapsed immediately.
"Why are you panicking? Have you forgotten that it was Gong Peilan who let you hide here to protect you? Who else knows you are here except her? That sound must be her coming to pick you up!"
"Eh? That's right."
Chen Qiyuan stopped shaking immediately.
If it's Gong Peilan, then there's nothing to be afraid of.
Chen Qiyuan stood up straight and mustered up his courage, but at this moment a terrible thought suddenly popped up in his mind.
Those are footsteps! Footsteps! Gong Peilan is in a wheelchair, how could she walk? It must be Zhan Yuhuai!
Soon he was frightened and trembling like a sieve. It must be Zhan Yuhuai, it must be...
At this time, the owner of the footsteps walked into their space. With the light of the night pearl, Chen Qiyuan could see the person clearly.
Then suddenly, his face lit up with joy. It was Gong Peilan!
So he called out excitedly: "Madam! You finally came to pick us up. I was scared to death!"
The corners of Gong Peilan's lips slowly curled up, revealing a gentle smile.
"Yu Huai already suspected me, and I managed to trick him away, so I hurried over to pick you up. Are you okay?"
"We are fine, but what is this place? Why are there so many strange things? What has Zhan Yuhuai done all these years?"
Gong Peilan put away her smile and sighed softly.
"Everything is as you can see. I can't persuade you. There is nothing I can do. You are the only ones I can save. I will take you away from here. What about the little girl who was with you? Where did she go?"
"she?"
Chen Qiyuan turned around and found nothing behind him, including Ye Linglong!
Ran away? My little junior sister actually ran away!
"What are you guys playing at? There is a special barrier here. No one can get out without me leading you. Don't wander around. It's very dangerous here. Get her out now."
"She just..."
Chen Qiyuan was about to speak when he suddenly realized something was wrong. Seeing Gong Peilan walking towards him step by step, his heart rose to his throat.
"Wait!"
Gong Peilan stopped.
"What's wrong?"
"Aren't you in a wheelchair? How come you can walk on your own now?"
Gong Peilan raised her eyebrows in surprise.
"I'm just feeling unwell. My legs aren't broken. Is it strange that I can walk?"
"No, that's not right! If this secret room belongs to Zhan Yuhuai, then why can the mechanism at the head of your bed open the entrance? Haven't you always disagreed with and not participated in his affairs?"
"I didn't say that this secret room belonged to Zhan Yuhuai. It was mine. It was just that after I fell ill, Zhan Yuhuai used it. I couldn't control it anymore."
"If you can't control it, why can you still come in? If you can come in, you can destroy these!"
"Oh, how come you become so smart?"
…
Chen Qiyuan was about to cry. He thought that Zhan Yuhuai was the culprit and Gong Peilan was innocent. He didn't expect that Gong Peilan was the mastermind. He jumped into the entrance she opened without hesitation and was locked in by her.
"It's you. You did all this, didn't you?"
"yes."
"So you were the one who used a body replacement to save his life, right?"
"Yes."
"Ten years ago, Bai Yuling was destroyed and the pagoda was lost. You were the one who manipulated the situation behind the scenes to blame Bai Yuling and save Danxin Hall?"
"Oh, forget it. Those idiots in Danxin Hall can't even protect a pagoda. I thought if I gave it to them, the people in Divine Doctor Valley wouldn't discover the secrets inside unless they had a chance to touch it. I didn't expect them to be discovered by Lord Baiyuling."
…
The culprit behind the scenes turned out to be her. This woman smiles so gently, but what she did is so terrible!
"The pagoda is lost, so you can use these nutrients to cultivate a body for your replacement!"
"Yes, there was no need to go through so much trouble to deal with so many messy things, because the pagoda was lost, and the loss was too great."
After saying this, Gong Peilan sighed again.
"You don't know that other people's bodies are not easy to use and are easily damaged. For example, mine now becomes out of breath after walking a few steps. It's almost useless and it's time to replace it."
"Not only that, you turned those withered bodies into puppets on strings!"
"That's the puppetry technique passed down from my ancestors. Our Gong family doesn't have any talent in cultivation, and this is the only thing we can show off. It also guarantees my safety, right? Otherwise, why do you think so many people listen to me?"
Seeing that she admitted everything, Chen Qiyuan did not feel happy at all. Instead, he became even more panicked.
Because the moment you tell him everything, that's when you're ready to kill people!
Seeing Gong Peilan approaching step by step, Chen Qiyuan was so scared that he turned around and ran away.
“Ahhh! Help!”
Gong Peilan sneered, and her five fingers moved quickly, as if she was controlling a thread.
The next second, several puppets around Chen Qiyuan immediately pounced on him.
"I have no patience left after talking to you for so long. Where is that little girl? If you don't hand her over, I will tear you into pieces right now!"
"I don't know either!"
"Since you are so stubborn, I will let you have a taste of being dismembered!"
Seeing that those puppets were about to catch him, Chen Qiyuan felt extremely regretful.
If I had known that it would be the last suicide note, I would not have torn it up. Even though I am not satisfied with the way it is written, at least it is a letter.
“Ahhhh!”
Just as he was screaming, suddenly there was a "puff puff" sound of burning flames, and the next second there was a "bang bang bang" sound of a body falling to the ground.
Chen Qiyuan turned back in surprise and found that all the puppets on the strings had fallen down and could not move. It was possible to save them. Maybe he could even have a chance to write a new suicide note.
Gong Peilan's brows furrowed instantly when she saw the three puppets falling to the ground. There were burn marks on their vests. Her little paper figures were burned!
She suddenly raised her head and looked in front of her where Chen Qiyuan was, only to see Ye Linglong already standing next to him, holding a stack of talisman papers in her hand. It was this talisman paper that burned her little paper man!
She actually discovered the secret of puppetry and found a solution so quickly!
Gong Peilan's face was wrinkled into a ball. Her gentle look was gone and now she looked twisted and ferocious.
"You are not an ordinary disciple of the Divine Doctor Valley. Who are you?"
"Hey, you don't know who I am after all this time? It seems that you took great pains to trick me into coming here just for my lovely and charming body. Although you can't get it, I can tell you that my body is very useful."
