After Lin Dan left, Liu Liang took a long time to recover. The strange thing was that no matter how loudly he screamed in the box, the people outside seemed to be unable to hear him. He started the car while dragging his body in great pain and returned home. Thinking of the ant in Lin Dan's hand, his heart sank.
"It's okay. My father-in-law is an old hand. He will definitely find someone expert to deal with her. How capable can a teenage girl be? I don't know much and was frightened by a little trick. I don't believe that no one in this world can deal with her!" After arriving home, Liu Liang did not get out of the car, but sat in the driver's seat and kept muttering, as if to cheer himself up. Over time, he actually hypnotized himself, and the fear in his heart was reduced a lot. Only then did he push open the car door with trembling hands.
"Sir, you're back," a servant came up to him anxiously and said, "You should go to the United Family Hospital right away. Old Mr. Chen and Mr. Chen are both sick. His wife has already rushed over."
Liu Liang immediately thought of the bottles in Lin Dan's hand, and his face turned extremely pale in an instant: "What disease? What happened to them?"
"They have the same disease as the young lady, and they are still being treated. Sir, please go quickly. When the lady called me, she was already crying."
"I, I'll go right away." Liu Liang felt dizzy, but he still forced himself to drive there. He ran through several red lights on the way and almost had a car accident. When he finally arrived at the hospital, the Chen father and son were already in the ICU. Liu Ruoyun's ICU was right across from them. Chen Li stood in the middle of the corridor, looking at her father, then her brother, then her daughter, her face full of confusion.
She had no idea what was going on. Why did the three most important people in her life all fall ill in just a few days? Didn’t they exchange lives with others? They should be able to survive! Yes, it was all that bitch Lin Dan’s fault. She messed up her plans, so all these things happened.
She gritted her teeth, her face full of resentment. She saw Liu Liang coming from the end of the corridor and immediately asked, "How was your conversation with Lin Dan? Why did my dad and brother fall ill right after you left?"
Liu Liang looked at his dying father-in-law and brother-in-law, and then at Liu Ruoyun who was so thin that she looked unrecognizable, and suddenly broke out in cold sweat. Only then did he realize that he had met Lin Dan and escaped unscathed, but it was nothing short of a brush with death.
"She got the blood of our whole family, yours, mine, my father-in-law's, my brother-in-law's, and even the dog at home. She fed my blood to an ant, and my life is in her hands. If she kills the ant, I will die too." Liu Liang was so scared that his whole body was cold, and he almost choked with sobs as he spoke: "Xiao Li, what should we do now? My father-in-law is also sick, who can we find to deal with Lin Dan? Her methods are too weird. If we had known this, we should not have provoked her in the first place. I have so many illegitimate children, whose life you want to exchange is not a big deal?"
"Shut up right there," Chen Li slapped Liu Liang hard, gritting her teeth and saying, "Money makes the world go round. Can't I deal with a powerless bitch? My dad knows a few friends in Xuanmen. I'll take out 100 million to buy her life. If that's not enough, I'll add another 100 million. I'll throw money at it and buy the entire Xuanmen. Let's see if she can handle it!"
Chen Li was a man of action, and she immediately took out Chen Qiu's cell phone to make a call.
The call was quickly connected on the other end. After she described what happened to the Chen family recently, he said nonchalantly, "It's just a Gu player. Don't worry. Does your father have the girl's fetal hair, fetal blood, and placenta?"
Chen Li's expression froze, and she shook her head and said, "She has taken it away."
"This is a bit difficult. The sorcerer has some ability to restrain my mystical arts, so I'm not 100% sure. Let's put it this way. We in the Xuanmen have a dark web. I'll help you post a bounty online to buy the life of that little girl. How about it? How much do you offer? The more you offer, the more masters we can invite, and this matter can be resolved quickly." The dark web that the other party was talking about was obviously not a regular Xuanmen website. It should be something like a black market transaction, otherwise people would not post the news of hiring a killer to buy a life.
Chen Li's eyes lit up, and she immediately said, "I spent 100 million to buy her life. I want her to die immediately, and her soul will be shattered!"
"One hundred million? That's a high enough price. I'll help you post it." The other party said as he operated, and finally promised: "Within 24 hours, the experts near Beijing will come to your house to negotiate with you. You just wait. After the matter is done, you must not refuse to pay, otherwise the consequences will be more terrible than meeting this Gu woman."
Chen Li nodded repeatedly: "I know, as long as I can kill that bitch, I will give you any amount of money! Hurry up, my father, my brother, and my daughter can't hold on any longer!" She naively thought that as long as she killed Lin Dan, her family would get better immediately.
The man chuckled twice and reminded, "The lives of your father, your brother, and your daughter have another price. So let's deal with that yellow-haired girl first."
Chen Li was stunned. When she wanted to ask more, the other end had hung up. However, as soon as she thought that many masters would be invited soon, she was no longer afraid of anything. If that sorcerer could exchange the lives of my father and others, then naturally others can do it too. China lacks everything except capable people.
However, she didn't know that after the other end hung up, he began to feel annoyed again, muttering, "Oops, I forgot to ask her where the Gu girl came from and what her name was. If she is from Haicheng and her name is Lin Dan, then it will be terrible! But forget it, I am not making this money anyway, so I don't care whether others live or die."
Chen Li held the phone in a daze for a while, and then began to urge Liu Liang to raise funds. Liu Liang was a man who valued his life, so he did not dare to delay even a moment and collected the 100 million yuan that night. In order to prevent any accidents, an additional 50 million was prepared, which was a huge investment.
The two stayed in the hospital all night. During that time, the doctor issued three critical illness notices, two for Chen Qiu and one for Chen Chu. It was obvious that they were dying. Chen Li's heart was burning with anxiety, and she felt that every minute and every second was torture for her. When she was about to give up, the maid finally called and said that several gentlemen came to visit, their clothes and behavior were very strange, and asked her if she wanted to call the police.
"Don't call the police. Invite them into the house immediately and treat them well. My husband and I will be back soon." Chen Li was cheered up and left with her bag.
Liu Liang also seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and hurriedly ran after her. He didn't sleep at all last night. As soon as he closed his eyes, the ant appeared in his mind. He kept imagining what Lin Dan would do with the ant. Would he drown it, burn it to death, or soak it in sulfuric acid to melt it into liquid? Every imagination made him extremely terrified. It turned out that having one's life in someone else's hands was such a desperate and painful thing.
They returned home quickly, only to see four men sitting on the sofa. One had a long braid, wore a mandarin jacket, and was very thin. One was wrapped in a black robe and his face could not be seen clearly. The other two seemed to be master and disciple. The older one had an immortal look and was very stylish, while the younger one had a pale face, as if he hadn't slept for many days.
The four of them turned their heads at the same time and looked at Chen Li and Liu Liang with gloomy eyes.
"Masters, thank you for keeping me waiting." Chen Li felt a little scared, but she still walked in. The servants in the house served hot tea and snacks and then moved away.
"I heard that you want to buy a person's life?" The man in black robe spoke first.
"Yes, we offer 100 million to buy the life of that dead girl. Whoever completes the task will get the money." Chen Li showed a resentful look.
Just as they were about to inquire about the target person's specific situation, Liu Liang's cell phone rang. He looked down and saw that it was a video call from the company's vice president, so he quickly answered it. The camera shook for a while before the vice president's face appeared on the screen. He said anxiously, "Boss Liu, please come to the company right away. Something has happened!"
"What happened?" Liu Liang's heart was beating rapidly.
"Look at our company building. It became like this overnight." The vice president pointed the camera at the building behind him and saw that the skyscraper, which was originally full of floor-to-ceiling windows and always shone with a clean light in the morning light, had become dirty overnight. Large chunks of dark gray glass were covered with traces of corrosion, as if some poisonous insects had crawled on it. Looking from a distance, the building looks gray and out of tune with the surrounding skyscrapers. Looking from a close distance, the scene looks a bit disgusting.
However, what is even more bizarre is that the three or four meter high golden signboard erected on the top of the building has now completely rusted, leaving only a steel frame. The four big characters "Liu's Finance", which were originally the most eye-catching and could be seen from hundreds of meters away, have completely disappeared from the sight of passers-by.
The destruction of a signboard is a very ominous sign for a company. In addition, the glass corroded by unknown liquids may pose a safety hazard. These accidents are enough to make the employees of the Liu family chaebol sweat.
Liu Liang stared at the unrecognizable skyscraper and felt more and more how terrifying Lin Dan was. In just one night, she turned his company into this state. How did she do it?
The old man stared at the phone screen for a while and sneered, "It's just a golden silkworm Gu, a trivial trick!"
The others also sneered in disapproval.
Liu Liang was overjoyed and immediately pleaded: "I will add some more money, please come with me to the company to solve the problem of golden silkworm Gu." The company was his hard work, even if his wife and children died, he would not let the company go bankrupt.
"How much?" the black-robed man asked sinisterly.
"Five million?" Liu Liang reported a number tremblingly.
"You want to kill a golden silkworm Gu for five million? You are too naive," the black-robed man said slowly, "Do you know what will happen to your company if the golden silkworm Gu is not removed?"
"What will happen?" Liu Liang was filled with ominous premonitions.
"You'll know in a moment." The man in black robe laughed maliciously.
