A passerby in a horror movie
Chapter 26 What sounds good is a good start
"What a bunch of beasts, heartless and treacherous."
Even knowing Bu Wantian's true colors, Li Haotian still couldn't help but curse after hearing Zhang Xiaosan's words.
Judging by the time, Tian Qi was about to implement the plan, and Li Haotian didn't want to waste any more time.
With a swift movement, Zhang Xiaosan's neck was slashed open by the dagger.
"you……"
Zhang Xiaosan stared wide-eyed for a long time before dying, his eyes wide open as he looked at Li Haotian.
Despite killing someone, Li Haotian showed no remorse or guilt; on the contrary, he remained remarkably calm.
Although he swore before Wong Tai Sin that he would not use magic to harm people, this did not include beasts like Zhang Xiaosan, and he did not use magic.
In the real world, Li Haotian would not act so impulsively, but this is the movie world, and he only wants to punish these beasts in his own way.
Moreover, this was during the Republican era, when the legal system was fundamentally flawed. If Huangshan Village could resort to vigilante justice to beat Chu Renmei to death, then it wouldn't be unreasonable for him to kill the wicked in the name of justice.
After dealing with Zhang Xiaosan, Li Haotian suddenly felt a strong fluctuation of magical power within his body, and the feeling of blockage was much less.
This further confirmed his idea.
So, Li Haotian ran towards Huangshan Village.
At this moment, in Huangshan Village, Bu Wantian is pretending to read a book in his study.
But Bu Wantian's mind was no longer on the book. Today was the last day of his plan. If the plan succeeded, he could get rid of Chu Renmei and marry a rich and beautiful woman.
Meanwhile, Tian Qi was sitting in a secluded corner, waiting for Chu Renmei to return.
Chu Renmei had already joined the Mirror Drama Troupe and was earning some money, so she was in a good mood.
“Aunt Mei, you actually acted in a civilized play with someone else. Teacher Bu will definitely scold you to death when he finds out.”
Xiao Qiang, who was standing nearby, exclaimed in surprise when he learned that Chu Renmei had joined the drama club.
The Bu Wantian family is a scholarly family, very traditional, and they absolutely could not accept such a novel thing.
However, Chu Renmei had no choice. Firstly, she herself loved singing opera, and secondly, she needed to pay off Bu Wantian's debts. If she didn't join the opera troupe, her family probably wouldn't be able to make ends meet.
"Don't tell Teacher Bu that I'm giving you this bracelet. As long as you promise Aunt Mei to keep it a secret, I'll agree to anything you ask."
Chu Renmei took out a silver bracelet and gave it to Xiaoqiang, asking him to keep it a secret.
Xiaoqiang naturally agreed and left happily.
Chu Renmei also packed her things and prepared to go home.
Inside the alley, Tian Qi, seeing Chu Renmei returning home, also made a move. Just as he was about to get up and follow her, he suddenly saw a figure blocking his way.
This man was Li Haotian, who had rushed over. After learning about the plan from Zhang Xiaosan, he immediately found Tian Qi's location and happened to run into Tian Qi about to leave, so he quickly stopped him.
"Are you blind? Get the hell out of my way!"
Tian Qi, who almost bumped into him, glared angrily at the young man in front of him. If he hadn't been in a hurry, he would have given the guy a good beating, given his personality.
Do you know what "ding ding ding" means?
Li Haotian ignored his threat and asked Tian Qi with a smile.
"Are you fucking crazy? What do you mean by 'ding ding ding'?"
Tian Qi didn't understand what Li Haotian was saying and thought he had encountered a fool, so he quickly raised his hand to push him away.
"Ta-da! Ta-da!"
Li Haotian grinned, and suddenly reached out from behind his back, holding a wooden stick as thick as an arm. With lightning speed, he struck Tian Qi on the head.
"boom."
"Does it sound good? If it sounds good, then it's a good start."
Li Haotian said softly.
Tian Qi was hit hard on the head with a club, instantly lost consciousness, and was unable to react at all, falling straight down.
Li Haotian quickly helped him up and dragged him to a corner of the alley. He felt around in his pocket and took out a ring.
Then they left the person at the corner, making sure no one would notice for a while, before leaving.
"It's your turn next."
Li Haotian looked towards an old house across the street.
This is Bu Wantian's old house, and also Chu Renmei's home.
According to Zhang Xiaosan's plan, Tian Qi would harass Chu Renmei tonight, then he would lead his men to break in and discover her, which would then attract the village chief and other villagers.
Once the village chief finds out, he will definitely beat Chu Renmei to death in order to protect the village's reputation, and then their plan will succeed.
Bu Wantian, however, had to stay out of it and not let anyone else know about his plans.
Li Haotian, of course, could not do as he wished.
Such a person should naturally be ruined and disgraced.
However, before going to find Bu Wantian, Li Haotian wanted to meet Chu Renmei first.
Chu Renmei created an illusion to play a role-playing game, so she definitely won't reveal her true form. Therefore, she should be safe at this moment.
Of course, even if Chu Renmei were to make a move, his magical power would still be intact, so he wouldn't be without the ability to protect himself.
After adjusting his breathing, Li Haotian straightened his clothes and then arrived at Chu Renmei's house and knocked on the door.
"Dong dong dong."
"Who is it?"
The door opened, and Chu Renmei looked at Li Haotian curiously and asked.
Li Haotian was also sizing up Chu Renmei. Although Chu Renmei's appearance was average when she was alive, her voice was very pleasant.
Li Haotian didn't sense any ghostly aura from Chu Renmei, so he relaxed a little.
"Hello, my name is Li Haotian. Do you live here, Chu Renmei?"
Li Haotian pretended not to recognize Chu Renmei and asked her.
Under normal circumstances, Li Haotian had never seen what Chu Renmei looked like when she was alive, so it's normal that he didn't recognize her.
"I am Chu Renmei. Mr. Li, what can I do for you?"
Chu Renmei looked at Li Haotian warily and did not let him in, after all, Li Haotian was a man and his background was unknown.
"Alas, you must be Chu Renmei. How pitiful."
Li Haotian suddenly sighed and looked at Chu Renmei with a pitying expression.
"Mr. Li, what are you talking about? What's so pitiful about me? If you have nothing else to do, please leave here."
Chu Renmei frowned and said with displeasure.
Chu Renmei was naturally not happy that a strange man had said she was pitiful for no reason.
As she spoke, Chu Renmei was about to close the door.
"Wait, listen to me. You don't know yet, do you? Your husband is having an affair and is now working with outsiders to frame you and divorce you."
Li Haotian reached out to stop her and said to Chu Renmei.
"What nonsense are you spouting..."
Just as Chu Renmei was about to unleash a torrent of curses, she suddenly noticed the ring in Li Haotian's hand, paused, and stopped.
"This is my ring."
Chu Renmei recognized the ring; it was part of her dowry and one of the few valuable items she owned, but she had recently given it to Tian Qi as collateral to pay off Bu Wantian's debt.
I never expected it to end up in the hands of this man.
Seeing that Chu Renmei's emotions had calmed down, Li Haotian continued:
"I found this ring on a guy named Tian Qi. It's yours, isn't it?"
"As for how I know this, it was Zhang Xiaosan who told me. You know Zhang Xiaosan, right? He's Bu Wantian's subordinate."
These guys were plotting to harm you, and I overheard them. I came to tell you out of kindness. If you don't believe me, I can let you hear your husband's true colors for yourself.
Li Haotian briefly explained Zhang Xiaosan's plan.
Since we've decided to help Chu Renmei, let's go all the way and let her know the truth in advance so she can give up on Bu Wantian sooner.
With Chu Renmei's abilities, she could support herself and live a good life by performing operas, so she had no need to rely on Bu Wantian.
"You come in."
When Chu Renmei saw the ring, she was already somewhat convinced, especially after Li Haotian explained the plan so clearly, which made her tremble with fear.
If these people really succeed, her fate will likely be very tragic.
