Please control me, my divine being!

The next morning.

As soon as it was dawn, Li Qinghe got out of bed, washed up quickly, and went to the front hall to have breakfast.

A vegetable bun and a bowl of congee.

For a lodging fee of only ten copper coins, the complimentary breakfast was quite substantial.

The woman was frail and pale, almost bloodless, and asked cautiously, "Guest, are you enjoying the food?"

"Hmm." Li Qinghe finished her breakfast in a flash, but her gaze drifted to the Dumb Alley across the street. The weasels were still there, constantly roaming around the alley.

After she finished eating, she took out half a tael of silver from her pocket: "Please prepare lunch and dinner for me as well, thank you."

"You don't need so much, sir." The woman accepted the gift with a flattered and somewhat apprehensive expression.

"Then keep it to deduct from the room fee."

Li Qinghe stepped out of the inn, the sunlight dazzling.

She wanted to go to the brokerage firm first to see if she could sneak in and meet the head broker.

But at that very moment...

She suddenly heard a faint murmur in her ear.

The sound was like willow catkins in the wind, brushing past my ear.

Divine guidance!

Li Qinghe quickly calmed down, trying to hear clearly what the murmur was saying.

"look..."

The word echoed in my ears.

Li Qinghe frowned, her small face full of confusion. What does "god" mean?

Is it to watch the weasels in the alley and, when they're not around, secretly take out Bai Tieya's belongings?

The next moment.

Her body suddenly went out of control and she walked towards another area.

This road leads to the north of the city. The houses on both sides are low and sparsely populated, giving it a desolate and vast feel. The further you go in, the quieter and more secluded it becomes.

The peace was broken by a cry.

A couple led a crying girl out of a side alley.

"What are you crying for? Once you become a disciple of Huang Xian, you'll be a superior person, living a life of luxury." Her mother sneered, glanced coldly at Li Qinghe beside her, pinched the girl again, and pulled her quickly forward.

The girl's father, standing beside her, looked sullen, as if made of stone.

Li Qinghe slowly remembered that this direction was the meeting place for the matchmaker.

She continued walking forward.

A large mansion came into view, and the three of them entered through a side door.

Li Qinghe suddenly crouched down, nimbly climbed a large tree, crossed the wall, and easily slipped into the huge courtyard.

The stench of the weasel permeated the courtyard.

Li Qinghe walked quietly into the depths of the courtyard, feeling both nervous and bewildered.

What does the deity want to do?

The large house was square and divided into many small courtyards. Li Qinghe stopped at the corner of a small courtyard and hid in the corner, where she found the family of three she had met earlier.

"This girl has good potential; she has a good chance of winning the favor of the Werewolf."

A man dressed in a yellow shirt and shorts took the crying girl and said to the parents, "Your incense money for this year is waived; the Yellow Immortal will protect you."

The middle-aged couple thanked them profusely and quickly took their leave.

After her parents left.

The girl was led into the house with a look of terror on her face. Then she screamed, and all the noise stopped abruptly.

crunch.

The wooden door was pushed open.

Two men in yellow shirts walked out looking gloomy.

"It won't work again, the success rate is too low. Not being from the North, and without being trained from a young age, it's good if two or three out of ten can be successfully converted. They're just low-quality talents."

"The children are of poor quality but plentiful. Ask the brokers to send more children; we have limited time."

After exchanging a few words, the two headed towards other courtyards.

Li Qinghe clenched his fists, a surge of anger welling up inside him.

This kind of thing is happening all over other courtyards, involving both men and women. It's unclear what their fate will be, but it certainly won't be a good one.

But there was nothing she could do.

People wearing yellow shirts and short jackets have yellow hair on their exposed skin, which is a mark of the yellow-haired horse.

In other words, a cultivator.

How can one person deal with so many cultivators?

And what's most important to me right now is to find a way to save my mother.

Li Qinghe had intended to quietly slip away, but then she vaguely heard a familiar voice coming from the side.

Now her hearing is acute and her perception is outstanding. After a short while, she recognized the voice.

Manager Zhang!

You couldn't have misheard.

Having worked for the Zhang family for many years, she was extremely familiar with Steward Zhang's voice.

Previously, the evil sores broke out in Huangshui Town, and the entire Zhang family was deserted. She thought she would never encounter it again in her life, but she encountered it on the second day after entering Lianshan City!

No, this is not a coincidence, but divine guidance!

Li Qinghe quietly crept to the outside of the room and peered inside through the crack.

...

[Peeping check, difficulty 6 points. You used the Fate Dice and scored a total of 8 points. Peeping successful!]

You carefully crouched at the corner outside the door, hiding your figure in the shadows, and peered into the house through the crack.

Manager Zhang, accompanied by a young man in a long robe, stood before the even taller Huang family brother's horse.

The manager, who usually had a stern expression, had a fawning smile on his face: "Brother Huang Qi, Sister Hong sent us over."

Our third son used the "miracle water" by mistake before, and his illness has recently relapsed.

Only you can do this.

"Look at these festering sores; if they aren't treated soon, the Third Young Master will die."

Brother Huang Qi looked troubled: "Manager Zhang, this matter is a bit difficult."

"Seventh Brother, Huang Xian is building temples and shrines in Lianshan City, and he needs money right now. The Zhang family is preparing to donate money for incense offerings for a few more temples and shrines."

Moreover, the Zhang family is familiar with the surrounding area, and I'm sure the adults were satisfied with our previous cooperation in Huangshui Town.

"That's not enough."

"In Lianshan City, the Zhang family can help you find many people you need..."

Upon hearing this, Brother Huang Qi stood up and smiled, "Then I'll help you this time, but don't forget to do the job."

The words fell.

The yellow hairs on the horse belonging to the Huang family grew wildly, with each hair sticking out and penetrating into the body of the young master Zhang.

The yellow hair, like long needles, pierced the skin and broke the sores, causing pus to flow out continuously from the sores.

The evil sores on the young master Zhang's body disappeared quickly, and he returned to normal in no time.

When you see this, you clench your teeth and dare not make a sound.

Only after the entire treatment was completed did Steward Zhang leave with his young master, and you, having discovered everything, had a raging fire burning in your eyes...

Zhou Qing stared at the options.

The Huang family's brother-in-law does indeed have the ability to cure sores. The game text hints that there will be extra rewards at the [rendezvous point], and I never expected it to be this.

To stabilize the girl's condition and help her understand and accept her mother's death, treating the sores is the first step.

Zhou Qing's mind raced, and combined with the additional information that popped up in the game text, he had already made a rough deduction about what had happened in Lianshan City.

The strength of Huang's younger brother's horse is not much higher than that of the likes of Zhang Tan.

We can wait until Brother Huang is alone and then capture him alive.
