"It's no use. From the capital to here, our men are everywhere. The moment you show your faces, they'll kill you!"
When Lin Shen saw that Xu Qingqing wanted to abandon the car and walk into the mountains, he spat out the sock in his mouth and mocked her for being naive.
Xu Qingqing: "Hmm? I see. Thank you for reminding me. Situ Xing gagged him."
After saying that, Situ Xing, disgusted by the sock that was covered in saliva, took off the other one and stuffed it into Lin Shen's mouth. Lin Shen clenched his teeth tightly, and no matter how hard Situ Xing tried, he couldn't pry his mouth open.
"No, this person's mouth is too tightly shut. I can't pry it open no matter what I do." Situ Xing was at a loss.
Xu Qingqing glanced at the rearview mirror, saw the situation behind her, and took out an embroidery needle from her canvas bag: "Use this to prick him, keep pricking him until he lets go."
Situ Xing happily took it, then gestured at Lin Shen, who was shirtless, hesitating about where to tie it.
Situ Kong glanced at her canvas bag and asked curiously, "Comrade Xu, I didn't expect you to have embroidery needles in your bag. I'm very curious about what's in your bag."
"Oh~, you mean this?" Xu Qingqing picked up the canvas bag and explained, "With my damn constitution, I don't feel safe without preparing something. Actually, there's not much inside, just some life-saving things."
Speaking of this, thanks to her unlucky constitution, Xu Qingqing always has to keep some things on hand. Last time, she discovered that bamboo skewers were surprisingly useful as traps, so she shaved off a whole bunch and piled them all in her space for emergencies. Sure enough, they came in handy again now.
Xu Qingqing planned to dig a trap like last time, killing as many as she could. So when they arrived near the mountain, she had the others get out of the car and untied the cloth binding Lin Shen. The others were puzzled.
Situ Kong: "Comrade Xu, are we taking this person up the mountain? Won't that slow us down?"
Besides, this man was sent by Master Qing to kill them. In Master Qing's eyes, he was just a small subordinate. Even if they kidnapped him to threaten those people, it would be useless. There were plenty of people like him. Whether one or many were sacrificed, Master Qing would not care.
Xu Qingqing shook her head: "No, this person is somewhat useful. It's good to use him to attract those people's fire. It would be best if the other side could fall for it, but if not, it can buy me some time so I can prepare for my next move."
Upon hearing Xu Qingqing's words, Situ Kong instantly understood that she was using Lin Shen as bait.
But how could she control Lin Shen, the bait?
Situ Kong voiced his doubts, and Xu Qingqing smiled mysteriously, took out a small bottle about the size of a palm, poured out a green pill, and smiled: "This is my No. 3 Stiffening Pill."
"Stasis-inducing pills?"
"That's right, just like its name, one pill can freeze a person's entire body, rendering them unable to move. It's the ultimate evolution of anesthetics!"
Xu Qingqing proudly showed them her pills, then pinched Lin Shen's cheeks, forcing him to open his mouth, and threw them in. She then took out a knife and cut off the cloth binding his hands and feet.
Situ Kong and his companions were filled with skepticism about the stiffening pill Xu Qingqing mentioned. They had never heard of such a pill that could make someone's whole body stiff, which they found hard to believe.
Seeing that they didn't believe in her No. 3 pill, Xu Qingqing put her hands on her hips, raised her chin, and sneered, "Just wait and see, you'll soon find out whether my No. 3 pill really works or not. Humph!"
For the next while, Xu Qingqing and the others stared at Lin Shen on the ground. Because Situ Kong had tied him up so tightly, his hands and feet were not circulating properly and were numb. He struggled to get up, but his hands and feet were completely out of his control.
Lin Shen naturally heard what Xu Qingqing said, but he didn't take it seriously. He thought it was just a scare tactic. How could such a thing exist in this world? Even the Yu family behind Master Qing, that ancient family that had survived through many dynasties, didn't have such a pill that could make a person's whole body stiff.
Pshaw! Does he really think he's a fool?!
Lying on the ground, Lin Shen's eyes were filled with malice. Just wait, once he regained feeling in his hands and feet, he would make these people pay a terrible price and let them know how miserable the consequences would be for offending him and Master Qing.
Seeing that he didn't move, Xu Qingqing kicked him and scolded, "Hey! While you can still struggle, hurry up and move, or you won't have a chance to move later. Don't be ungrateful."
The Situ brothers: "..."
Factory Manager Li: "..."
Lin Shen: "..."
You're a real dog!
Lin Shen was filled with resentment. He lay on the ground and didn't move no matter how much Xu Qingqing kicked him. He vowed to teach her a lesson.
On the other side, Jin Dahu sat in the car, his big eyes staring at the road ahead. Then he closed his eyes and began to spin the prayer beads in his hand, faster and faster, until he suddenly tightened them. These were the prayer beads that Master Jin had given him, to help him control his temper.
Lin Shen hasn't shown up yet, so he must have failed. Even with so many men and weapons, he couldn't even take down Situ Kong. He's just as useless as Zou Jin, the worst of the worst.
Arrange for people to put nails on the road, and then wait for the other party to come to the door.
Xu Qingqing hadn't tried the No. 3 pill before. She scratched her head, thinking that the medicine should be taking effect by now. So she picked up a stone from the roadside and threw it at Lin Shen's head: "Hey! Wake up, your mom wants you to come home for dinner."
No response? Xu Qingqing threw a few more pieces: "If you don't wake up soon, your wife will run off with another man, taking your child and calling someone else 'Dad'."
Situ Kong couldn't stand it any longer, so he walked over to Lin Shen's side, wary of a sudden attack, and then kicked him. Lin Shen's expression twisted uncontrollably for a moment. How could this person's body be so tough? The next second, he returned to his normal expression, endured the pain, and calmly walked towards Situ Xing's side.
Situ Xing noticed that his brother's walking posture seemed different from usual, as if he was walking with a slight limp. Just as he was about to voice his doubts, he saw his brother's threatening look, as if warning him.
Situ Xing: "..."
(╥╯^╰╥)
Lin Shen rolled over a few times and landed on his back. Xu Qingqing and the others walked up to him and found that his eyes were filled with fear, but his face still showed a hateful expression with gritted teeth. What a strange expression.
"Go to hell!" Xu Qingqing jumped up in fright and kicked him away, yelling, "Get out of here!"
Startled, she forgot to control her strength. Oh no! Xu Qingqing quickly realized what was happening and looked up at the figure. Her gaze followed the figure as it traced a graceful semi-circle in the air until the other person fell from mid-air onto a tree branch, legs spread apart, and crashed straight into her...
In that instant, the Situ brothers and Factory Director Li instinctively tightened their legs, their expressions contorted in pain, as if they heard the sound of their testicles cracking. That force must have caused them to explode, right?
Xu Qingqing: "(?｀?Д?′)!!"
Bro! Are you okay? She really didn't mean it.
