Chapter 532 Black Lotus Festival
"I believe you, Qiuhong." The Palace Master's wife gave Qiuhong a reassuring look.
"Thank you, ma'am." Qiuhong breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.
"Mr. Meng, it seems this is just a misunderstanding..." Yin Shang looked at Mr. Meng who was standing aside.
"It turns out that the Palace Master is not a good person either." Yan Li said this and silently distanced herself from Yin Shang.
Yin Shang: ...
It seems that in Meng Guixin's opinion, those who are speaking for Qiuhong now are not good people.
"Xin'er, no matter what the truth is, let's just endure this matter for now, okay?" Old Meng looked at Yan Li.
"Okay then, I understand." Yan Li nodded with great grievance.
"Homecoming..." Yin Shang took a step forward and wanted to say something, but after taking Yan Li, he took a step back, his face full of vigilance.
Yin Shang was stunned when he saw this!
"Don't blame me, Palace Master. After all, Gui Xin was alone before and had no one to protect him..." Old Meng's eyes were full of heartache.
"Whatever." Yin Shang sighed.
"Someone, break Qiuhong's hand." Yin Shang ordered expressionlessly.
As soon as Yin Shang finished speaking, someone came out and quickly broke Qiu Hong's hands.
"Ah..." Qiuhong's scream rang out.
The Palace Master's wife looked very unhappy when she saw this.
"Gui Xin, is this okay?" Yin Shang looked at Yan Li.
"It's terrible, so terrible. It turns out that the hand can be broken with such a light snap." Yan Li did not reply to him, but hid directly behind Mr. Meng, in a corner where no one could see, with a slight smile on his face.
This maid is not a good person either, she should be taught a lesson.
"Palace Master, I will take Qiuhong back first." After saying this, the Palace Master's wife turned around and left with Qiuhong, whose hands were broken.
In fact, Yan Li was still very curious about what the Palace Master's wife wanted to do with her.
But none of this matters anymore. I don't want to have too much interaction with her anyway.
In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the Black Lotus Festival.
"It is indeed a dark day." Yan Li looked up at the dark sky and sighed.
"Grandpa, will everyone in the Zi Han Palace go today?" Yan Li looked at Elder Meng.
“That’s right, but only hall masters and elders can enter the Black Lotus Pond. No one else can enter.” Elder Meng nodded.
"Then let's go." Yan Li said.
The two came to the square where the Black Lotus Festival was held.
At this time, the 198 children were all dressed in black and tied aside.
Their mouths were blocked so they could only shed tears silently.
"Oh..." Mr. Meng couldn't help but sigh when he saw this scene.
"Mr. Meng, why did you bring Gui Xin here?" The third elder walked over here and looked at Mr. Meng with great disapproval.
"Gui Xin is very curious about the Black Lotus Festival. She saw everyone coming, so she begged me to bring her here to see it." Old Meng said.
"Mr. Meng, that scene...you should take her back first." The third elder said as he looked at Yan Li standing aside.
"Mr. Meng, you should also want to enter the Black Lotus Pond together, so why don't I help you bring Sister Guixin back?" A young man walked over.
"Gui Xin, he is the Great Elder's disciple Li Ji, why don't you go back with him first?" Elder Meng spoke after Yan Li's signal.
"Okay then, Grandpa, you go ahead and do your work first." Yan Li nodded.
"Sister Guixin, let's go." Li Ji took Yan Li away from the scene.
"This is not the way back to our yard." Yan Li said in pretended panic as she watched the surroundings becoming increasingly desolate.
"Still want to go back? I don't think you can go back in this life. You actually relied on Old Meng to protect you and caused Qiuhong to break both her hands." Li Ji knew that usually no one came here, and today was the Black Lotus Festival, so it was even more impossible for anyone to come, so he revealed his true face.
"What do you want to do? If you dare to hurt me, my grandfather will not let you go." Yan Li said loudly.
"No one will come here. If I kill you here, no one will know." Li Ji's face became ferocious.
"It turns out that no one will come here. That's great." Yan Li changed her previous timidity and a hint of mockery flashed in her eyes.
"You...you..." Seeing Yan Li's sudden change, Li Ji was obviously frightened.
"What about me?" Yan Li quickly stepped forward and grabbed Li Ji's neck with her hands, her eyes cold.
"Miss Meng, I was wrong, I was wrong, please let me go." Seeing this, Li Ji quickly begged for mercy.
He dared to attack Yan Li because he knew that the man named Ye Wu was sent out to do something today.
Who would have thought that Yan Li was the living devil.
"Let you go? If I were really a powerless girl, I would be the one dying now." Yan Li said and then twisted his neck in his horrified eyes.
The next step is naturally to destroy the body.
After doing all this, Yan Li went straight back to the Black Lotus Festival in stealth.
At this point, the various rituals have been completed.
I saw Yin Shang leading the elders and the children towards a place.
The invisible Yan Li mixed in with the team and walked forward with them.
They entered the Black Lotus Forbidden Land and then came to the Black Lotus Pond.
Yan Li looked into the black lotus pond and found that there were black lotus flowers as big as millstones blooming in it. Each of these black lotus flowers had teeth.
The children were so frightened when they saw these strange black lotuses that they trembled in fear, and some of the timid ones even fainted.
The elders muttered a lot of things to the Black Lotus Pond and then bowed to it collectively several times.
Afterwards, Yin Shang ordered the children to be thrown into the Black Lotus Pond.
When the children were thrown in, the black lotuses did not start fighting for food like in previous years, but all stayed where they were.
Although it was strange, Yin Shang still led everyone to bow a few times to the Black Lotus Pond and then turned around and left.
After Yin Shang and the others left, Yan Li took out a space ring and directly put the frightened children into the ring space.
She stood aside and observed these strange black lotuses.
At this moment, perhaps the effect of the medicine powder Yan Li gave them had taken effect, so the black lotuses that did not eat the child became restless.
Yan Li discovered that these black lotuses had to be eliminated!
So she grabbed one and threw it into the space, trapping it with a barrier and preparing to keep it for research.
Yan Li simply applied a handful of medicinal powder to the remaining black lotuses, and they slowly withered and finally turned into ashes and dissipated.
After all the black lotuses disappeared, Yan Li discovered that the black lotus pond was almost filled with children's bones.
From this we can see how much evil the Zi Han Palace has committed and how many innocent children it has killed.
Finally, Yan Li burned the bones with fire, completely destroyed the entire Black Lotus Pond, and then left the Black Lotus Forbidden Land.
As soon as she left the Black Lotus Forbidden Land, Yan Li returned to the place where Li Ji had taken her before.
She was waiting for Mr. Feng Meng to come and find her.
She had already sent a message to Mr. Meng before, and he would bring people here soon.
