Miaomiao's voice was no longer full of vigor. She sounded so weak that it seemed she might take her last breath the next second. Looking at Miaomiao like this and hearing her aggrieved question, Wei Ziqi's eyes also turned red.
But at this moment, he couldn't give any response. He lowered his head, placed his hand on Miaomiao's belly, and then drew out his knife and stabbed it down.
Blood spurted out immediately and flowed into the wooden basin at Miaomiao's feet. Just then, a person who had been watching Wei Ziqi suddenly rushed forward, pushed him away, and said, "You're using so much force. Aren't you afraid of killing her?"
"Forget it. I guess you have quite a deep grudge against this woman. You should go back to your dormitory quickly. I'll cover for you here."
The young man pushed and shoved Wei Ziqi, urging him to leave quickly. Under the pressure, Wei Ziqi had no choice but to leave the basement and turn back to the room where he had first woken up.
The room was empty, and there were no surveillance cameras on the ceiling. But in this place, one had to be extremely careful everywhere. Wei Ziqi climbed onto the bed, pulled the quilt over his head, and in the dark, he used his coat to bandage his palm to stop the bleeding.
That's right. He was stopping his own bleeding.
How could he bear to hurt Miaomiao? So just now, he had used his body to block all the surveillance cameras. He had placed his hand on Miaomiao's belly, but the dagger had stabbed into his hand, and the blood that flowed was his own.
Now he had to find a way to contact the outside world, but he had no idea where this place was. He only had the address information of Jinding Garden. Yin Chuan hadn't taken his phone after he had used it just now, but he was afraid that the phone had been tampered with, so he didn't dare to use it easily.
"The things have all been obtained. The higher - ups said that he was the most thoroughly hypnotized, so he can be taken to the ceremony."
Someone was coming. Wei Ziqi quickly poked his head out, looking normal.
"Why are you still going to sleep? Hey, what's wrong with your hand?"
The young man who had woken him up at first pushed the door open and pointed at Wei Ziqi's hand in surprise.
"It's nothing. I was too excited when I was taking revenge just now, and the dagger was very sharp. I accidentally cut my own hand."
"Oh, why are you so careless? Well, let's not talk about this for now. Grandpa asked us to go to the ceremony. Soon you'll be able to witness the most miraculous scene in the world! After the ceremony, we can all get a share of the benefits. This is a great thing! Come on, let's go quickly."
The ceremony?
What on earth were they up to?
A group of crazy and law - breaking people. What kind of world miracle could they create?
Filled with doubts, Wei Ziqi followed the young man to a courtyard.
The courtyard was full of people. Wei Ziqi saw many familiar faces, such as the heads of the Gu family, the Lu family, the Tao family, and Tao Jingying and Miaomiao who were tied up.
And the layout of this courtyard was exactly the same as the one where Miaomiao had challenged someone.
So this was the territory of Liao Che's master!
Finally, he had confirmed his location. Wei Ziqi didn't care about whether he would be exposed or not. He quickly took out his phone and edited a text message, sending the location and a distress signal to Lin Yao and his father.
He had his father's phone number originally, and he had known Lin Yao's phone number by heart since primary school.
Just as the text message was sent, Liao Che's master walked out of the crowd, stood beside Miaomiao and Tao Jingying, and shouted, "Today, I've invited you all here to fulfill the promise I made before. Without the support of all of you here, my development over the years and all the things I've done would have been extremely difficult. I've long regarded you all as confidants and friends. Since we're friends, we should share the good fortune. Otherwise, the long journey of life would be very boring and lonely without the company of relatives and friends. Well, no more nonsense. Now, let's officially start our journey to immortality!"
Immortality?
Were these people crazy?!
After Liao Che's master announced the start of the ceremony, four or five people carried a large cauldron together and placed it in the center of the garden. Then they carried two wooden basins forward and poured the blood in the basins into the cauldron.
One of the wooden basins was the one that had caught Miaomiao's blood. Wei Ziqi had remembered the unique pattern on it at a glance.
The other basin should have caught Tao Jingying's blood, because there were obvious bandage marks on her wrists and ankles, which should have been caused by blood - letting.
After pouring all the blood in the basins, these people carried over a pot of flowers. This flower was the family heirloom of the Wei family.
"This flower is called the Ever - living Flower. There's only one such flower in the whole world. Later, when the blood in the cauldron boils, put the petals and the precious medicinal materials that you've all gone to great lengths to find for me into it and boil them for ten minutes. Then you can get the soup that can make you immortal. I forgot to tell you all that this little girl has excellent bones. She's a once - in - a - millennium martial arts prodigy with a very good physical constitution. Mixing her blood into the cooking will not only make you live forever but also keep you healthy. I really took a lot of effort to catch this little girl."
Liao Che's master pointed at Miaomiao and explained. Wei Ziqi, standing in the crowd, tightened his grip on the dagger and watched the old man warily. He had made up his mind that if the old man wanted to hurt Miaomiao again, he would rush forward.
Just then, a young man suddenly rushed in from outside in a hurry. He leaned over to Liao Che's master and whispered a few words in his ear. Then the old man's face changed greatly and he said, "There's an important guest outside. I have to go and check. This is my son. He also knows the process of making the medicine. He'll preside over the following things."
Liao Che's master suddenly pushed Yin Chuan forward. Wei Ziqi was shocked. How had these two suddenly become father and son? He had met Yin Chuan's parents!
"Everyone, I just took a look. There are quite a few people here. This amount of blood may not be enough. The scene later may be a bit ugly. If you have a low tolerance, you can choose to avoid it first."
Yin Chuan clearly wanted to kill Miaomiao. What nonsense about the blood not being enough. Half a basin of blood just poured in would have been enough to kill someone with a weaker constitution. Miaomiao was born with a good constitution, so she was still alive weakly after losing so much blood.
Wei Ziqi would never just watch Miaomiao being hurt in front of him. Without saying a word, he rushed forward with the dagger in his hand.
Anyway, he had already sent out the address and information. It was just a matter of time before he was rescued.
Now, even if he had to use his own life to buy time, he had to wait until Lin Yao and his father came.
No one had expected Wei Ziqi to rush up. When he rushed in front of Yin Chuan at an amazing speed and stabbed the dagger into the latter's belly, everyone was stunned.
Having succeeded with one strike, Wei Ziqi used all his strength to grab Yin Chuan's arm and put the dagger against his neck, shouting, "If you don't want him to die, don't come closer! Otherwise, I'll perish with him!"
