“Alright, everyone, disperse! The rehearsal is over. There’s nothing else to watch. Thank you for your support just now. There was no commotion at all during the rehearsal. I’ll treat everyone to melon seeds another day!” Li Xiaoran waved enthusiastically.
As soon as they heard that they could eat melon seeds, the people at the surrounding stalls were immediately happy.
With the thought that they would be fools not to take advantage of the situation, everyone happily returned to their posts and continued to set up their stall to sell things.
On the other side, the group of people led by Luo Ziyang suddenly woke up in a dark cave.
When they opened their eyes, they saw that yellow talismans were stuck all around the cave. Even their bodies were covered in talismans.
“Immeasurable Heavenly Venerate, you’re all awake?” A voice sounded from the cave entrance.
The men squinted and saw a man in a priest’s robe walking over.
“You’re really lucky to dare to barge into the territory of a thousand-year-old tree demon. You’re really bold! If you hadn’t been lucky enough to encounter me passing by and saving you all from the Witch of the Black Mountain, you would have died!” The Daoist priest said with a sage-like appearance.
At this moment, everyone looked at each other. They looked around the crowd but couldn’t find Jian Kang.
Disappointment flashed across Huang Xingkai’s eyes. Then, he calmed down and walked in front of the Daoist master.
“How should I address you? You saved our lives. We must repay your kindness!” The Daoist touched his beard when he heard Huang Xingkai’s words.
“There’s no need to repay me! You guy were not destined to die! I hope you can cherish your hard-won lives in the future and do more good! Otherwise, karma will eventually get you!”
With that, the Daoist turned and left.
“By the way, stay in this cave for a day! When the sun rises tomorrow, the evil aura on your bodies will dissipate. At that time, you can naturally leave in peace! If you leave early, bear the consequences!”
The people in the cave looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
“What do you think, Kai?” a buddy asked.
Huang Xingkai circulated his internal energy, but he still couldn’t mobilize it. His limbs were limp.
“Try your bodies. It’s very difficult for you to move your limbs, let alone leave.
It’s better to wait here until dawn!”
With that, Huang Xingkai found a cave wall to lean against and sat down.
Seeing this, the others followed suit and sat down to recuperate.
Huang Xingkai closed his eyes and thought about something.
To be honest, he was indeed shocked by the previous scene.
However, he didn’t believe the priest’s words at all.
Huang Xingkai didn’t believe that there were ghosts in this world at all. However. since the other Dartv could set uD such a traD, thev were more than capable enough of dealing with them.
In the end, he found an excuse to let them go, presumably because he didn’t want to make enemies with them.
After understanding this, Huang Xingkai heaved a sigh of relief.
On the other side, Luo Ziyang returned to the shop after arranging the follow-up matters.
Coincidentally, everyone was resting, so Luo Ziyang asked the question on his mind.
“Sister-in-law, we can only fool them for a while! Anyone with the slightest common sense wouldn’t believe us!”
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she laughed.
“I naturally know that these tricks definitely can’t fool people! However, smart people should think about whether they will help others deal with us in the future! You have to know that if we wanted them dead, they would have died countless times already.”
Luo Ziyang didn’t understand what Li Xiaoran meant and looked at her in confusion.
“Ziyang, there are many smart people in this world. Smart people naturally judge the situation when they do things. Think about it, if you met someone you’re not sure of, would you cause trouble so rashly?”
Luo Ziyang thought for a moment and shook his head.
“I wouldn’t. At least, I’d avoid it! If I have to fight this person, I’d investigate this person thoroughly. Or I’d observe this person’s every move and discover his weaknesses and patterns.”
“That’s right. They wouldn’t get any benefits from dealing with us. Instead, they might lose our lives! Do you think any smart people would take the initiative to provoke us?” Li Xiaoran asked.
“What if the other party isn’t smart and comes looking for trouble with us in the future?” Mao Dao asked.
Li Xiaoran thought of something and said, “Then next time, it won’t be a matter of making them feel weak all over but really killing them!”
Luo Ziyang finally understood what his sister-in-law was thinking and smiled.
“Sister-in-law, you’re amazing! In my opinion, those people probably won’t come looking for trouble with us anymore! As for Jian Kang, I plan to send him to the border to do manual labor. This guy idles around all day and doesn’t do anything. We should let him experience some suffering!”
“That’s not a bad idea, but just don’t kill him!” Li Xiaoran thought for a moment and said.
Just like that, the two of them decided what Jian Kang would experience in the future.
However, what Li Xiaoran and Luo Ziyang didn’t expect was that the ignorant and incompetent playboy that caused trouble all day long underwent a drastic change.
After Jian Kang was sent to the border by the two of them to do manual labor, it actually stimulated Jian Kang’s courage as a man. He became an unyielding man who protected the country and did his part.
After dealing with Jian Kang’s matters, Li Xiaoran stopped thinking about these things.
Because there were two fewer people in the shop, everyone was busy.
Therefore, Li Xiaoran was thinking about where to hire people from.
After her previous bad experience, Li Xiaoran didn’t plan to search in the village anymore.
It wasn’t that there was no one suitable, but she didn’t want to hire ingrates anymore.
She didn’t want to contribute without appreciation.
She had clearly helped these people, but she didn’t get a word of thanks. They even ran faster than anyone else at the critical moment.
Li Xiaoran, who was heartbroken, naturally didn’t want to help the villagers anymore.
Mao Dao thought of something and suddenly asked, “Sister-in-law, if the shop is short of people, can I introduce people from our village to work?”
Li Xiaoran looked at Mao Dao and thought for a moment. “Is the person you introduced reliable?”
“She’s reliable, definitely reliable!” Mao Dao nodded and promised seriously, “If anything happens, feel free to ask me to take responsibility!”
