He said, "This is a treasure carefully developed by Lü Dongbin of the Tang Dynasty."

Xia Luyao nodded doubtfully: "What's its name?"

However, Lin Beichen fell silent. The wind blew past him, bringing a hint of coolness. He suddenly said as if stimulated: "You still don't believe me."

Xia Luyao looked at Lin Beichen who was almost about to cry, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

She took a deep breath, reminding herself not to attack Lin Beichen here.

"Alright, alright," she said, "Hurry up and save them. We still need to find Dr. Zhou."

Lin Beichen didn't waste any more words. He just picked up the electric drill and started drilling holes.

He tried to recall when the electric drill entered his backpack, but found that he had no recollection of it.

But he was too lazy to go into it further. The most important thing now was to rescue Feiying and others.

He took out a piece of talisman paper from his bag and stuck it on the electric drill, then shouted: "Hurry!"

The talisman began to glow, and the drill bit became sharper and brighter.

Then Lin Beichen pressed the switch of the electric drill with a serious face and started digging a hole to save people.

Although Xia Luyao expressed concern about his actions, Lin Beichen confidently stated that everything was under his control.

Lin Beichen sensed someone approaching from a distance. He didn't pay much attention to it at first, but then he felt a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart.

He thought to himself that perhaps this crisis intuition should be given a more appropriate name, such as "palpitation method."

Well, this name is both sensible and reasonable.

Although he was alert in his heart, Lin Beichen did not stop his hands and continued to drill the hole in the ground with concentration.

He knew that the one who was in real danger at the moment was not him, but Xia Luyao.

Faced with the source of his palpitations, Xia Luyao probably didn't even have a chance of survival.

However, Xia Luyao was completely unaware of this and she continued to talk to Li Congjing with a smile on her face.

In Xia Luyao's eyes, Li Congjing was just a cute little girl, and she even felt an inexplicable sense of comfort in her heart.

"Because there are people down there waiting for him to rescue them." Xia Luyao explained vaguely. She did not reveal too much information to Li Congjing.

In her opinion, it was necessary to be a little cautious with such a non-threatening and quite likable person.

Li Congjing didn't care about Xia Luyao's attitude. There was a trace of embarrassment on her face, as if she was hesitating about something.

Seeing this, Xia Luyao mistakenly thought that she wanted him to help find the elders in the family, so he asked tentatively: "Little sister, is there anything you need our help with?"

Li Congjing shook her head, bit her fingernails, and looked like she was thinking hard.

This made Xia Luyao even more confused. She had no idea what Li Congjing was thinking.

Finally, Li Congjing showed a look of determination on her face, and she said to Xia Luyao seriously: "Sister, I am actually the heir of Taoism."

As soon as these words came out, Xia Luyao was shocked.

Although she knew something about Taoism, she had never thought that the lovely little girl in front of her would be the successor of Taoism.

However, what shocked Xia Luyao even more was that Li Congjing actually knew that Lin Beichen was also a descendant of Taoism. At this moment, Xia Luyao began to believe that this little girl in front of him might really have an indissoluble bond with Taoism.

Seeing that Xia Luyao was already wavering, Li Congjing took out a broken porcelain piece from his pocket and said mysteriously, "This is something my master asked me to give you. He said this thing can save his life."

"Replace a life?" Xia Luyao widened his eyes and looked at the porcelain piece in Li Congjing's hand in disbelief.

She struggled and asked, "Are you sure that Lin Beichen will really have a catastrophe within 24 hours?"

"Yes." Li Congjing nodded affirmatively. Xia Luyao took a deep breath and looked at Li Congjing sincerely: "Then please give it to me."

However, at the moment when Xia Luyao reached out to take the porcelain piece, Li Congjing's face suddenly changed, and he took out a bag of powder from his pocket, and knocked Xia Luyao unconscious unexpectedly.

Li Congjing looked at the unconscious Xia Luyao with a complicated expression and whispered softly: "If I had always been the same, I would have been much happier than you two."

After saying this, she turned and walked towards Lin Beichen who had been digging a hole.

At this time, Lin Beichen had stopped digging the hole and looked at Li Congjing vigilantly.

He knew that this seemingly cute little girl was actually not easy to deal with, so he didn't dare to let his guard down for a moment.

However, Li Congjing did not seem to intend to attack Lin Beichen. She just looked at him coldly and said, "Lin Beichen, you don't have to pretend. I know you are not drugged."

Hearing this, Lin Beichen snapped his fingers helplessly, dispelling the illusion he had created.

He was indeed not drugged, and everything that just happened was just an illusion.

But now he had to face a realistic problem: how to escape from this dangerous little girl while ensuring Xia Luyao's safety. He was filled with a sense of crisis at this moment.

Li Congjing looked at Lin Beichen with a sickly blush on her face. She asked with a little excitement: "Did Joseph say a lot of good things about me to you?"

Lin Beichen's heart trembled, knowing that Li Congjing was testing him.

He didn't dare to speak carelessly, so he could only answer carefully: "Joseph... said you are cute and beautiful, and told me how much he loves you."

Hearing this, Li Congjing showed a happy smile on her face.

She seemed very satisfied with Lin Beichen's answer, and the murderous intent in her body gradually dissipated.

Lin Beichen breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he had escaped danger for the time being.

He secretly sighed in his heart that women's hearts are as unpredictable as the sea, especially a crazy woman like Li Congjing who is even more unpredictable.

However, he also understood a truth: sometimes telling the truth may not necessarily save your life, but saying what the other person wants to hear can get you out of danger.

The two fell into a brief silence. Li Congjing seemed to be still immersed in happiness, while Lin Beichen took the opportunity to quietly observe the surrounding environment looking for a chance to escape. At the same time, he was also thinking about how to rescue Xia Luyao and reveal Li Congjing's true identity.

He knew that the crisis was not over yet and that he had to remain vigilant to meet the challenges ahead.

At this time, Li Congjing gradually woke up from her feeling of happiness. She looked at Lin Beichen in front of her and secretly planned her next step.

Behind this seemingly calm conversation actually lies turbulent waves and unknown dangers, and the contest between the two has just begun.

Lin Beichen listened to Li Congjing's words, but his heart was not shaken by her threats.

He was confident that he could escape from Joseph and was not very afraid of Li Congjing.

However, he began to have doubts about certain aspects of Joseph, especially his respect for the law and his unexplained sexual quirks.

"Is Joseph a pervert?" he wondered in his heart, but he could not find the answer from the deceased.

Li Congjing's tone suddenly became serious, as if she was revealing a big secret.

She lowered her voice and said mysteriously: "I'm going to give you an extra reward. Although this may cause me trouble, since you make me happy, it doesn't hurt to tell you." Lin Beichen was immediately cheered up when he heard this.

If what Li Congjing said is true, then this secret must be very important.

At the same time, he also began to doubt Li Congjing's mental state. She seemed to be more than just a person who was madly pursuing love.

"Have you ever ignored the two people who escaped from you?" Li Congjing's question confused Lin Beichen.

A runaway? He had been on the run almost all the time since he came here. How could he have let anyone escape from him?

Li Congjing didn't seem to expect his answer, and continued to speak: "Joseph and I have no conflict with you. The reason we intervened in this matter was actually a spur of the moment decision. You misunderstood Joseph's true identity from the beginning."

There was a hint of reminiscence in her words, as if she was recalling her past with Joseph.

Lin Beichen's heart moved. Could it be that Joseph could transform a person similar to the trench? What was the deep meaning of this secret?

Li Congjing suddenly threw down two maps, one was an underground map, and the other was a comparison map of the ground and underground.

She pointed to the place marked with the words "Kaisen" on the map and said, "Your companions will be placed there."

After saying that, she turned and left, leaving Xia Luyao and Lin Beichen looking at each other in bewilderment.

Lin Beichen looked at the two words on the map and was speechless.

The handwriting was really ugly, but he gradually realized that Li Congjing might be a real Xia person, and the love between her and Joseph might have transcended racial boundaries.

What is so beautiful about the love between them?
Lin Beichen didn't know, but he knew that Li Congjing's change in attitude must be related to Joseph.

The thought that Joseph might die for this woman filled him with emotion.

However, the current situation did not allow him to think too much.

His two biggest imaginary enemies have left, one is nowhere to be found and the other has passed away.

He and Xia Luyao are still in danger and must find their partners as soon as possible and leave this dangerous place.

After Xia Luyao woke up, he looked at the map in front of him and Lin Beichen's solemn expression, and couldn't help asking: "What is this?"

Lin Beichen replied briefly: "Map."

He didn't see any mystery from the map, he just hoped it could guide them to find their companions.

After telling Xia Luyao what happened before, the two began to study the map.

Xia Luyao looked at the two big words "Kai Sen" on the map and said speechlessly, "Kai Sen means happy! How could you not understand?"

Lin Beichen suddenly realized that these two words had no deep meaning, they were just a cute way for Li Congjing to express himself. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart that he thought too much.

Just then, a low-key troop carrier appeared in their sight.

A group of big men got out of the car, all holding guns and looking ferocious.

Lin Beichen and Xia Luyao looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.

These people were obviously not Joseph's elite soldiers, so who were they?
At the same time, Li Congjing also encountered trouble.

She looked at the "Joseph" who got out of the car in front of her - actually the imposter Joel - and asked coldly: "How dare you block my way?"

Joel just wiped his hands calmly, with a sarcastic smile on his face: "Ms. Li, it seems that you still need to face reality."

The group of elite soldiers behind him immediately raised their weapons and pointed them at Li Congjing, as if they would pull the trigger at any time.

However, Li Congjing showed no fear at all. She just sighed softly: "Garbage will always be garbage..."

Before anyone could react, she suddenly pulled out a gun and pulled the trigger.

With a "puff" sound, Joel's shoulder was hit by Li Congjing's bullet.

She said calmly, "Joe has been undercover for a long time, and his people have been undercover for a long time as well."

Joel's expression suddenly changed, and he finally realized his naivety. Li Congjing was more powerful and cunning than he had imagined.

"Joel, I don't want to fight with you." Li Congjing's words revealed murderous intent, "I will start counting down to three now, you'd better get out of the way quickly."

Joel's face was gloomy. He didn't expect that his carefully planned action would end up in such an embarrassing situation.

When he heard the number "two", his heart tightened. He was locked in by Li Congjing's murderous intent. He felt his pores tighten and he could not hide his inner panic.

"Wait!" Joel shouted hurriedly.

Li Congjing stopped, she didn't want to die here.

Although she was able to kill Joel, she would also die afterwards.

What she needed was a heroic ending, not this meaningless sacrifice.

"Let her go." Joel uttered these words with difficulty, his pride and confidence disappearing at this moment.

Li Congjing glanced at him coldly and walked past him.

Joel stared at her back, feeling indescribably frustrated.

He knew that the leadership position he had worked so hard to establish no longer existed.

On the other hand, Lin Beichen and Xia Luyao faced a group of big men.

A big man with a scar on his face walked up and looked Lin Beichen up and down.

"Are you the Lin Beichen that our employer mentioned?" he asked jokingly.

Lin Beichen didn't say anything, but just silently prepared to fight back.

However, Xia Luyao gave him a look, signaling him to stay calm.

The big man laughed: "You two little guys are of noble status and your family is rich. We will have to avoid you when we see you next time."

Lin Beichen and Xia Luyao looked at each other, feeling somewhat puzzled. Could it be that these people were here to protect them?
"Are you sure you are here to protect me?" Lin Beichen asked.

"Of course, look, this is your photo, right?" The big man took out his cell phone and showed a photo of Lin Beichen.

Lin Beichen squinted his eyes and looked carefully. It was indeed his photo. He began to feel strange and didn't understand what the employer behind it was up to.

"Do you know where we are going?" Lin Beichen asked tentatively.

"We take money from people and help them get rid of disasters. We will follow you wherever you go." The big man replied.

Lin Beichen thought for a moment, (End of this chapter)
