Chapter 290 - 268: Must Meet Today (Monthly Ticket 750+Update)
Xiao Qian thought all night about how to save themselves. She had memorized the terrain she observed when she came, and with some information passed down from Shi Yu’s past life, she had a bold idea.
“Shi Yu, I have a daring idea. If we do it right, we can escape. If we don’t, well lose our lives. What do you think?”
“I’ll listen to you.”
“Very well, let’s do this…” After whispering into Shi Yu’s ear, she nodded, understanding their plan.
Xiao Qian reached out her hand, “Although I don’t know what consequences we’ll face for doing this, I do know that if we don’t, the outcome for us will not be good.”
Shi Yu put her hand on Xiao Qian’s.
Live or die together. I’d rather risk my life for something great than lose myself and become a mere breeding tool.”
Growth happens in an instant, and now Shi Yu has grown up.
“Will your conscience be bothered if we do this? After all, if we succeed, we’ll harm a whole crowd of people.”
Shi Yu’s previous character was softer, and she had sympathy for many people. But now, she had been completely transformed by Xiao Qian.
Shi Yu shook her head firmly.
“When they chose to be collectively numb and didn’t respect our lives, when they didn’t treat us as human beings, why should I care about them? I have sympathy for them, but who will sympathize with me? If it weren’t for you, Boss Qian, I would be now…”
No one dared to imagine the consequences.
Xiao Qian gripped Shi Yu’s hand, “When we get back, there will be many ways for you to express gratitude, but not now. As good sisters, Boss Qian win definitely get you out safely!”
“Yes, we have to survive and get out!”
The two girls exchanged a knowing glance, and everything started from that moment.
Halfway through Da Paozi’s roasted chicken, some villagers arrived.
“Da Paozi, can your Fairy see things today?”
“Let me go ask!”
Da Paozi ran into the house, and Shi Yu agreed to see. The visitor carried incense, and Xiao Qian took two broken bowls. They placed one yuan under a bowl and filled another with soil to serve as an incense burner. Then the man lit the incense and confided in Shi Yu.
“Grandma Huang, my grandson had a fever as soon as he returned home.
Please help with your divine powers.”
Shi Yu and Xiao Qian recognized the old lady, who had fed a child with steamed bread in public the previous day. She treated her children like treasures but did not treat the girls bought back home as human beings, pushing away the pitiful girl in front of everyone.
Xiao Qian knew in her heart that it was the flu virus she had brought from the city that infected the people. Nonetheless, she continued to pretend and whispered in Shi Touyu’s ear.
Shi Yu, pretending to be the legendary Huang Xian, looked like a deity. She sat with crossed legs and pointed her fingers at her knees, making a snapping gesture. Those who knew Huang Xian recognized her, while others felt she resembled a Bodhisattva.
“Bring water!” Shi Yu said to Xiao Qian.
Xiao Qian immediately scooped up a pail of water. Shi Yu gestured in the air a few times before saying “begin” and handed the bucket to the old lady.
“Go home, divide the water into two halves. Mix one half with two pails of water, heat it up and let the child drink it in a few doses, with a total of two and a half pails to increase urination frequency. Use the other half to wet a cloth, wipe the child’s body. This is the method to remove my divine powers. After that, consult a doctor, take Baniangen and other herbs, and the fever will recede within three days!”
Thank you, Grandma Huang, for your divine help!”
The old lady bowed and carefully carried the bucket of water out.
Xiao Qian gave Shi Yu a thumbs-up.
Excellent! Just like that!
It was just ordinary water. What Shi Yu said was actually a method for reducing fever in children. A child with a viral fever would not last more than three days. Luckily, the child had a fever all night, and when the grandmother left, the fever had not yet subsided. By the time she returned, the fever had subsided after being wrapped in a warmed quilt and sweating it out. She immediately believed that Shi Yu’s divination was effective and began to spread the word that Grandma Huang gave sacred water with miraculous powers.
In such a closed-off place, the speed of spreading these rumors was very fast, and soon everybody knew.
As the villagers arrived one after another, Da Paozi and Dagen’er were both kneeling on the ground, burning incense under the influence of Boss Qian and Xiao Yu. Upon seeing this, everyone became even more convinced of the divination.
Da Paozi arranged for the villagers to line up outside, while Dagen’er eagerly asked Shi Yu about having children.
Shi Yu had already rehearsed a script with Boss Qian and gave Dagen’er a pail of water. He was told to carefully take it home, shut the door, pull the curtains, and not entertain any guests. For three days, he must wash his genitals with the water, not eat or drink, and prepare a urine bucket inside the room, using it for all his needs and never going out. He must absolutely avoid sunlight and moonlight. Every time he washed, he would take a sip of the water. When he had drunk all the water, it would be effective.
Dagen’er believed it completely and immediately carried the water home. Xiao Qian’s intention was not only to disgust him.
She and Shi Yu were about to escape, so they couldn’t let Dagen’er, a strong fighter, interfere. He would be washing his genitals at home, and Shi Yu added that if he heard any noise or shouting outside during his seclusion, it would all be demons from the underworld trying to confuse him. He must not open the door, or else all hope for having a son would be lost.
After starving him for three days and drinking the water he had washed his genitals with, even if he wasn’t weak from hunger, he would have diarrhea. The threat of the village tyrant was cunningly removed by Boss Qian and Shi Yu with their trickery.
As for the remaining divinations, there were those asking for life and death, for diseases, and for whether boys or girls would be born.
When Shi Yu saw a man, she would deceive him into staying inside for a day without coming out, or tell him to drink water without eating for a day. When she saw a woman, with Xiao Qian’s help, they would make up random things, blabbering nonsense to deceive people.
It could be predicted that the fighting power of this village would be reduced by at least half by Xiao Qian’s plan, and the other half depended on luck!
A civilian helicopter headed towards the mountainous area where Xiao Qian was located, advancing rapidly.
During the past hours, Yu Minglang had been sleepless, exhausting his relationships to the fullest, and finally found a clue.
Interprovincial crime brought great interference to rescue efforts.
In an era without surveillance and real-name systems, finding someone was difficult. Once someone went missing, they could be gone for a lifetime. The fact that Yu Minglang was able to find clues within this time frame was already a great achievement.
“One, how long will it take for us to get there?” Qiao Zhen anxiously asked.
I m more anxious than you, but if nothing goes wrong, we can bring them back today!” Yu Minglang quickly reviewed the information received from various places within a short time. One hand was fixed on his shoulder while he performed tasks single-handedly..
