Chapter 327 Aren't you tired?
Red Phosphorus: "!!" Okay, there's no need to ask anymore. This person is just sick. Otherwise, how could he say something like that?
Old Li finished speaking, but the girl in front of him fell silent again. He scratched his head, realizing that he no longer possessed the same imposing presence he had when he issued the order to arrest people outside the city that day.
Honglin didn't want to spend too much time with him, afraid that if she stayed with him for too long, she would become just like him, silly and foolish.
Just as I was about to leave, I heard someone behind me ask, "Where are you going? You can't leave without my permission, and no one can leave here without my token."
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Honglin immediately turned to look at him, her eyes brimming with anger.
Seeing this look in Old Li's eyes, excitement was evident in them, and his gaze remained fixed on the red phosphorus without ever looking away.
Knowing she couldn't get out, Honglin went to look for Hua Niang and the others, but she searched the whole courtyard and still couldn't find them.
To find out where Hua Niang was, Hong Lin had to stop and turn around to look at the tagalong behind her: "Where are my four sisters? Where did you take my four sisters?"
"Are they all your sisters? Have they all helped you? How about I release them all?"
The voice and tone sounded like those of a servile lackey, but Red Phosphorus wasn't buying it at all.
"...Li Changyong, when did you become so shameless? Did that guy surnamed Gu learn it?"
"He's shameless, and you're shameless too. I think the two of you are truly birds of a feather."
"No, no, I didn't study with him. I have absolutely no connection with him. He is him and I am me. We are different..."
He was clearly a general, a commander of troops, but now, in front of Honglin, when he spoke and explained himself, he acted like a timid little wife who had made a mistake, both shameless and pitiful!
He said he didn't and even called out Honglin's old name, but Honglin didn't like it at all and told him to shut up after just one call!
Yes, the two of them know each other, and they've known each other for several years.
At that time, Honglin was a very young girl. She was probably too young and didn't understand things. So when she liked someone, she just kept throwing herself at him.
But that person was like a block of wood; no matter what, he always listened to his brother, believing that whatever his brother said was right and everything else was wrong.
Oh, there's one exception: his direct supervisor. He treats everything other than what people in those two categories say as utter nonsense!
She had never met the person, but she had heard of his reputation. Everyone said that he was a great demon king, and that no matter where she saw him, she should stay as far away as possible.
Although she had never met that person, hearing those kinds of words so many times made her not want to see him again, especially when she heard this tagalong talking about how great and amazing that person was. She wanted to see him even less!
In the end, Honglin still couldn't find Hua Niang and the others. Li Changyong said that Hua Niang and the others had been taken to another place, but when asked, he wouldn't say where they were.
Honglin was so angry that she almost got into a fight with the man.
Hong Lin held a silver needle in her hand and glared at Li Changyong: "I'm warning you, Li, no matter where you took them, you better bring them back to me safe and sound, or I'll never forgive you."
"Okay, okay, I understand. It will be perfectly intact, I promise..."
After Li Changyong finished speaking, he ran out. He was going to find that old woman and get the person back. If he really sent the person back, he wouldn't be able to live the rest of his life.
But he searched everywhere and couldn't find the old woman, and the men had also disappeared along with her.
He arrested his men and questioned them, only to hear them say that the old woman had already taken the man away with his permission, so the people at the gate didn't even try to stop her. Upon hearing this, Li Changyong was horrified.
When did he ever say such a thing? When did he ever give that old woman such permission? That old woman just took him away like that, and no one outside even tried to stop her. Didn't they know to send someone to tell him?
All they know how to do is eat. They can't do anything else. They can't even handle such a small thing. They might as well go home and farm.
Knowing that the woman had already escaped, Li Changyong led his men directly to the old woman's lair, only to find that it was now empty, with nothing inside.
"Damn it, I asked her to deliver someone, and where the hell did she send them?"
You know, if you just send the person there directly, that would be fine, but he can still intercept them halfway there and bring them back.
But now?
Nobody knows where he's gone. Where is he going to ambush him?
On the other side, Hua Niang, who was forced to run with them, had a calm expression, while Hong Xiu and Xiao Lingdang next to her did not look so good.
They stared at the old woman before them, their faces deathly pale. Honglin was absolutely right; this old woman was a witch, a particularly detestable witch.
From the moment they were brought out and put on the carriage until now, that old hag hasn't stopped talking. I don't know where she gets so much to say. That stinky mouth of hers just keeps going on and on. I really want to shut her up.
When Little Bell heard what the old witch said, she clung tightly to Red Sleeve. She was young and came from a respectable family, so she had never heard such words before.
Now, whenever Little Bell hears what that old hag says, she trembles with fear, as if she herself might become that thing in the next second.
The old witch was very satisfied when she saw the little bell; this was exactly the effect she wanted. She then said with a smile, "Don't be afraid. As long as you listen to me obediently, I guarantee you'll live a life of luxury and have nothing to worry about."
Hearing this, Hongmei coldly looked at the old hag: "Auntie, did you say that? Can you shut up now that you've said enough?"
"You've been talking for as long as we've been up here. Aren't you tired of this constant chatter?"
"Even if you're not tired, think about us! We can't even get a break because you keep talking here!"
The old witch was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, probably not expecting a young woman to speak to her like that.
