"You have done so many bad things and don't care about your own life. I can understand that."
As Gu Nian spoke, he held a dagger and approached the white-haired old ape.
"You don't care about your own life, what about it?" Gu Nian narrowed his eyes, looked at the woman, and asked coldly.
As she expected, the woman immediately became nervous when she saw her approaching the old ape with a dagger.
"What are you going to do? I'm warning you, don't touch it, or I'll kill you all!" the woman shouted hysterically.
Gu Nian clicked his tongue, "It seems you haven't figured out the situation yet. Now you are in our hands."
She paused deliberately, then used the dagger to strike twice with the white-haired old ape who was struggling to break free, but to no avail, making the woman scream in fright.
"What are you going to do? Come at me with whatever you have, don't touch it!"
"I just said, we never want to hurt anyone. We just want to know the whereabouts of our friends. We just want to know the truth of the matter. We want to know why you are targeting us and why you are doing these things."
"If I tell you, can you put the dumplings in?" the woman asked.
Her eyes looking at the white-haired old ape seemed to be full of reluctance and sadness.
The white-haired old ape seemed to be able to sense the woman's emotions, and suddenly spoke, whining sadly, and tears actually flowed from his eyes.
"As long as you tell us what I want to know and promise not to hurt us again, we can consider it," Gu Nian said.
She knew that the glutinous rice balls in the woman's mouth should refer to the white-haired old ape.
And whether to let them go depends on their judgment of the danger of the whole thing.
The woman pursed her lips, glanced at the glutinous rice balls, and nodded.
"Your companions are in the cellar beneath the east wing."
Gu Nian nodded and said to Li Shan and Zheng Xixi: "You two go rescue people."
Having said this, she thought for a while and took out a set of clothes, some water, and food from the space.
"Bring Xiaobai over too. I think Leng Shan may need treatment."
Gu Nian said as he summoned Xiaobai.
After confirming that Zheng Xixi and Li Shan were both themselves, Gu Nian no longer needed to avoid them when summoning Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai.
Zheng Xixi and Li Shan did not expect that they could even raise pets with special abilities in the game, and they couldn't help but marvel.
Finally, under Gu Nian's urging, the two people took Xiaobai and left.
"Then tell me now, who are you and why do you want to hide in this lonely garden and harm others?" Gu Nian asked.
"My name is Li Mengju, Li Changgeng is my grandfather, and Li Wu is my grandma. As you see, the unnamed tablet on the altar table belongs to my mother. My mother's name is Li Waner."
Li Changgeng's family is not local, they live in Xikou Town outside Huaishu Village.
Their family was in the paper-making business and opened a small shop in the town to make a living.
About a few decades ago, the old man of the Sun family, the richest family in Huaishu Village, passed away. He went to the town and invited Li Changgeng and his family to Huaishu Village to take care of the old man's affairs.
At that time, Li Waner was still a twelve-year-old child.
She, her parents, and a four-year-old brother came to Huaishu Village and stayed in the Sun family's Jiyuan.
