atrol car with flashing lights sped past us, and many vehicles willingly gave way to let the police car through.We both looked at each other, our brows furrowed deeply.The political atmosphere here is...She really wants to get closer to my brother. I didn't expect her to be so interested in him.
"... Brother, what should we do now Should I go to the village with Miss Lin to get the antidote"
"No, we're going together. This time I caused the trouble." He stretched and stood up, saying, "I'm going to the Lin family now--"
I stared at him in surprise. Going to the Lin family now
This old and new grudge combined, are you trying to experience what their washboard tastes like
"I have to go and apologize in person! What else can I do I need to explain the situation to the Lin family if I want to take Lin Yanqin away. I certainly don't want to be wanted by Interpol!" He twitched his lips.
That expression, my intestines turned green with regret.
I chatted with Lin Yanqin to ease her nervousness and worries.
The sick person was more sentimental. She told me, “ … I feel feverish, Xiao Qiao, you don't know how happy I was to receive your calls and messages because usually where you are, your brother is too. Even if we can't talk, it's nice to at least catch a glimpse of each other.”
This...
"Miss Lin, my brother... he's not a good man. What do you like about him"
“Hmm… First impressions, you know” She smiled mischievously. “He smashed my headlight, and most people would be either nervous or trying to pass the blame. But he just came up to my car window all cocky and cool… And he’s really funny, I can tell he lives life on his own terms.”
"But my brother... he doesn't like to be tied down. He doesn't even look for girlfriends, and he's a staunch bachelor. And you're a wealthy heiress... I guess your future will be marrying into a prominent family with a grand wedding, right"
Lin Yanqin lowered her head silently, without a word. After a while, she raised a smile again.
"It's okay, I haven't reached the point where I have to get married yet. I can still secretly like him for a while longer, hehe..."
There's a slight pang of bittersweetness in my heart.
She, like her brother, was self-disciplined and principled, with a clear mind, but she didn't show it on her face.
“I’ve never met people like you before.” Lin Yanqin smiled slightly. “You are mysterious, interesting, and able to live an ordinary life with ease. I’m happy to meet you, thank you for giving me a different experience and insight.”
She thanked me so sincerely, I could only wryly smile and say: " ... When you get married, you should personally tell my brother. I'll definitely help bring him in front of you, so you can tell him yourself...and make him regret it."
"Haha," Lin Yanqin smiled. "I think your brother won't regret it, he can live very freely no matter what the circumstances."
Her face had a flush, looking somewhat sickly.
The old woman swore on her life that she had no intention of harming her, the poison only caused her body to react — just fever or fainting, absolutely no venom.
The old woman also told me that Xianniang was a term for a part of the Cao Gu Po people. Although they were skilled in gu arts, they didn't harm people for no reason. Instead, they used gu arts to treat some minor ailments common among the mountain people.
But we dare not be complacent, planning to set off early the next day.
When my brother came back from the Lin's, he had a scratch on his face. He said that Mrs. Lin was so angry she hit him with her handbag, and the decoration on it scratched his face.
Also coming were Lin's mother and Lin Yanhuan.
Mother Lin pitied her daughter and scolded Lin Yanhuan, saying he hadn't taken good care of his younger sister. He even scolded us until we were seething with anger.
My dad got angry: "Whose child isn't a treasure! But when children grow up, they have their own lives. What are you, an old woman, meddling in so much You have this time, why not apply more face masks!"
Mom Lin’s face turned green with anger. Lin Yanqin whispered, “Mom, if you do this, I won’t have any friends left…”
When Lin's mother heard this, she held back. Lin's family's circumstances did indeed mean that Lin Yanqin had no real friends and no normal social life. Lin's mother also felt a bit guilty.
But in her eyes we are "untrustworthy friends," unreliable!
Lin Yanhuan saw that her mother's emotions had subsided, so she persuaded her mother back. Then she went to talk to my brother alone for a few words.
My brother didn't look good, but he admitted his fault and took the blame. His attitude was impeccable.

The old woman said their village was nestled among mountains and by the water, but it was deeply hidden. This village was almost a thousand miles away from us. My brother drove for eight hours to reach a remote wilderness area, and then we trudged in, one step deep, one step shallow, until late at night.
This is bigger than I imagined, but after seeing King Miao's City, we've come to expect this.
However, there's a wide river beside this village. The water is thick and fast-flowing, which makes me feel strangely familiar with it.
"Old Immortal, what's the name of this river" I asked.
"The Mekong River."
What!
The Mi River Isn't that the Great Shaman King's territory!
"Hey, isn't the Witch King City hidden in the secret passage within the Mi River basin! Do you know Mu Wanchen" I asked urgently.
She widened her eyes, looking at me in terror: "You... how did you know the Great Shaman's name!"
Of course I know!
I'm even helping him find a wife!
Hold on, hold on!
"—You put a love spell on my friend, not to find a wife for Mu Wanchen, right!" I asked in shock.
She looked flustered and stammered, unable to speak.
Lin Yanqin lay on the bodyguard's back, these two bodyguards taking turns carrying her up the mountain. She was burning with fever and a bit delirious, suddenly mumbling: "Xiao Qiao, where's your brother..."
My brother is right beside you...
I glanced at my brother, his expression was conflicted.
When someone is feverish, their words always carry a hint of coquettishness. Miss Lin asked me, "Brother," in a moment, and anyone could tell who she had in mind!
My nameless anger ignited - this Mu Wanchen fellow, I thought he was a good person!
He had poisoned all the women he’d found in the surrounding villages with his venomous gu, and seeing him so despondent, I felt sorry for him and even helped him locate his future wife’s birth date, time of birth, name, and whereabouts!
He even sent people out to look!
"Mu Wanchen! Get your butt out here! You big jerk!" I roared into the dark valley, my voice trembling with rage.
The old woman was so frightened that her soul flew away, and with a thud she knelt on the ground begging for mercy: "Don't shout! Don't shout! The Great Shaman King isn't here! The Shaman King's city is very far from here! We are just a tribe under the rule of the Great Shaman King! You must not offend the Great Shaman King, he will take his anger out on us!"
"You're siding with the tigers, you're not good people! You deserve to be punished!"
I've never been this angry before.
I feel like I've been deceived. Back then, I was so naive, begging Jiang Qiyun and even getting Mu Wanchen to carve the wife's whereabouts on the cliff. Turns out he was still looking for different women to test with!
The old woman kowtowed and said: “Please, I’ll immediately go to the village to find medicine for you… After you’re healed, please leave with your friends quickly. Even if this old woman is blind and doesn't know Mount Tai! Please have mercy on me and spare my life! Don’t offend the Great Shaman King, if we offend the Great Shaman King…”
She pleaded frantically, behind her mountains and canyons stretching endlessly into darkness. A rumbling sound like thunder shook our eardrums—
"... Insulted me, what are you going to do about it"
>air is already thinning..."This bunch of gossips, I asked them for Teacher Wang's phone number. Standing in the hallway, I dialed. Soon a man's voice rang out in my ear: "Who is this""Teacher Wang, I...
