The Fairy Maiden (2)

elope.The bread is embedded with five emperors coins.My family doesn't place much emphasis on Taoism or spells. I only know that my father gave us these things to ward off evil spirits and bad luck.Th...Ms. Lin's upbringing was strict, and her posture when she stood there was even more standard than that of a flight attendant. Even without makeup, her air and mannerisms were far from those of a village woman.

Besides, there was a bodyguard squatting by her side. That bodyguard's muscles were so obvious! Does selling mineral water require this physique

" ... I knew she couldn't fake it! Look at everyone around her staring! See those old bachelors eyeing her up!" My brother complained.

I glanced around and saw that several middle-aged men were secretly eyeing Lin Yanqin.

These people had probably never seen a young lady with such an air of grace as Lin Yanqin. Their primal instincts drove them to stare at her.

Miss Lin has a slender figure and is tall with long legs. At 1.7 meters, she can pull off any outfit – though she's very dissatisfied with it and even tried to get me to stop looking.

But the aura of those aristocratic young ladies made everyone around them restless, they just felt ashamed and didn't dare to approach them.

Some of the old bachelors were staring at her relentlessly, and I found it quite off-putting.

Miss Lin seemed a little uneasy, but she tried her best to keep calm in order to wait for us.

A few rustic villagers crouched by the roadside, whispering to each other. We overheard snippets of their conversation as we passed.

"That woman is so fair... I just wonder if she's clean."

"You shameless bastard! What do you mean 'grinding disc' Do you think she's going to grind for you!"

"Oh my, don't talk, don't talk, it's already hard!"

I just want to scream.

My brother was also about to lash out, but now wasn't the time for that. He walked closer so Ms. Lin could see us. Ms. Lin nodded and walked towards the more crowded area.

She was so dazzling in comparison to the other women around her that it was almost cruel. Most of those women hadn't gone out to work, but they were incredibly proud and arrogant, spoiled by having matchmakers constantly coming to their doors, making them look down on everyone else.

The people behind us also got out of the car, three of them, with one driver remaining in the vehicle.

"Xiao Qiao, don't wander off, I'm afraid you'll be targeted too," my brother chuckled.

I scoff, "Hmph, I'm a mother now, nothing scares me!"

We led the followers to the middle of the market, and when my brother was about to play the role of a bandit who kidnapped Miss Lin, something seemed to have happened to her.

An old woman stopped her and spoke to her eagerly.

What's the matter Trying to introduce your son

Is your son as handsome as my brother Does he have as good a figure as my brother Does he have my brother's high emotional intelligence and charisma Does your son have… oh, I guess my brother isn't very wealthy.

Miss Lin politely shook her head. The old woman persisted, finally reaching out and grabbing her wrist—

"Damn, this old woman's acting like she's trafficking people!" My brother got angry and shoved his way through the crowd to get to Ms. Lin.

He shoved her while scolding: "Old hag, why are you clinging to my daughter! Let go! If you have the guts, let your son come and propose himself!"

Before we could reach Ms. Lin, she suddenly jerked as if struck by electricity, forcefully pulling her hand away from the old woman's grip.

"Ouch!" she gasped.

I squeezed next to her and hurriedly asked, "Where does it hurt"

She raised her hand to check and found a red dot on her wrist, like she had been bitten by a mosquito, swollen into a small bump.

My brother wondered, "How delicate and tender is a thousand gold daughter Even a mosquito bite would hurt!"

Lin Yanqin's face was a little red, and she said unhappily, "It doesn't hurt now, but it's itchy!"

"What did that old woman tell you" I asked.

"...She told me about the matchmaking, saying the man was a village head and rich and powerful..." Lin Yanqin said with a wry smile.

I say nothing, village head You probably don't know how wealthy and influential Miss Lin is.

The person tailing me pushed into the throng of people. My brother signaled to Ms. Lin that it was time to begin.

His thought was: Miss Lin screamed, he would carry her to the other person's car and run, drawing the crowd over to block the car, then Miss Lin's bodyguard would take the chance to catch our tail.

Who knew that the change would come so suddenly!

I don't know who came up with this brain-dead plan, but they actually set off a string of firecrackers!

The deafening crackle and roar made it impossible to hear each other speak!

At that moment, the group of people who had been following us suddenly surrounded us. Unable to communicate verbally, they pointed guns at our stomachs.

Guns… who are these people

My brother's mind raced, and he immediately changed his hand covering his ears into a surrender gesture. However, I saw him discreetly make a pinching motion with his fingers!

As soon as the firecrackers had finished, my brother lit a firecracker to ignite the decorative archway next to us. Balloons popped one after another, and the three men immediately turned around in alarm. He kicked over one of them, grabbed me and Lin Yanqin, and we ran out!

Just a short distance into the run, Miss Lin's bodyguard arrived in a hurry, saying urgently: "Don't act rashly, these people are—"

Before I could finish my sentence, I heard a gurgling sound!

Lin Yan fainted!

We were shocked! Miss Lin fainted just from a mosquito bite!

The bodyguard immediately went to hold Lin Yanqin and prepare to take her to the hospital. The other two bodyguards stopped those who were chasing us, whispering about the situation.

What on earth is going on!

Lin Yanqin's closest bodyguard walked over and whispered to us, "Two, misunderstanding! It's really a case of the water overwhelming the Dragon King temple. These are our own people."

"Who the hell is this, our own people or are they trying to hijack us" My brother roared.

"It really is our people. The two of you can take some time to talk to them. We'll send the young lady to the hospital right away!" The bodyguard hurried off.

"Wait!" I grabbed him urgently. "Lin Yanqin was fine just now! Why did she suddenly faint Was she bitten by something poisonous Let me check her!"

The bump on her wrist from the mosquito bite earlier has actually gotten bigger. Could it have been stung by a bee!

If it's poisoned, then it's better to go to my house and find the old woman covered in dirt. She knows a lot about removing poisons!

I looked up just about to say I'd take her home with me, but in a blink of an eye, I saw the old woman who was hunched over earlier watching us from afar!

Those murky eyes were smiling yet not smiling, staring right at us!

"Bro! That old hag must have tampered with it!" The only one who had touched Lin Yanqin's wrist just now was that old woman.

"Go after him!" My brother charged without hesitation.

I rushed into the crowd, charging at the old woman with my partner!

We chased the old woman out to the edge of the road, and my brother suddenly leaped and pinned her to the ground!

He forcefully pressed against the old woman's body, yelling: "You dead hag, what kind of thing are you, daring to harm people!"

The old woman sneered, suddenly shaking out a small bag of powder.ghtly and continued beside me, "Otherwise, after thirteen needles are administered, the spiritual energy will be completely depleted, leaving nothing but ashes."Does this work I'm a little doubtful, m...
