The Big Shot Tears Apart Her Villainess Script After Transmigrating Chapter 235 - Soul Cry Bird

Chapter 235: Soul Cry Bird

The girl’s voice was especially pleasant, like a silver bell.
Tang Li looked at her and asked, “Were you the ones who chased away the ghosts just now?”
Then, she said with lingering fear, “I was so scared.”
The girl looked at Tang Li. Tang Li was against the light, so the girl couldn’t see her face clearly. However, she felt that when the woman opposite her said she was afraid, she didn’t seem to be afraid at all.
At this thought, the girl tightened her grip on the copper bell and nodded.!!
Qi Yihan switched off his flashlight. He hugged Tang Li tightly and whispered into her ear, “Is there anything wrong with these two?”
Tang Li thought for a moment before saying, “They’re human, but they do attract trouble.”
These two people went down the mountain just to buy sacrificial items. They were obviously different from ordinary natives.
Tang Li said to Qi Yihan, “We might meet again.”
Qi Yihan nodded.
The two of them stopped talking.
The entire cave became quiet, except for the deafening thunder outside.
They did not sleep much before the day broke.
As expected, the storm stopped at five or six o’clock in the morning.
The moment the rain stopped, the father and daughter left with their baskets on their backs without saying goodbye.
However, before the girl left, she took a look at Yuan Yuan, her eyes filled with curiosity.
After the two of them left, Mrs. Guo quickly said to Tang Li, “Mrs. Qi, I think there’s something wrong with those two.”
“They will attract Yin Spirit.”
Hearing that, Mrs. Guo suddenly looked solemn. “There are witches in the nearby villages. Are those two people witches?”
Witches would not personally go down the mountain to buy things.
Mrs. Guo looked even more solemn when she heard that.
“What’s wrong?” Tang Li asked.
Mrs. Guo said, “The people in the villages believe in witchcraft very much. I heard recently that some foreign forces want to use them.”
Qi Yihan begun to look serious as well. “I heard that several living human laboratories have been set up in border recently. This kind of laboratory needs a large number of living people for experiments. Over a thousand people have mysteriously gone missing on the southern border.”
“That’s right!” Mrs. Guo’s expression darkened. “I’m worried that they’ll target us.”
If they were targeted, it would be even harder for them to find Yuan Yuan’s soul.
“Don’t worry. I’ll make sure everyone is safe.” After saying that, Tang Li took out a piece of yellow paper and folded it into a paper crane before throwing it into the air.
The paper crane seemed to have come to life and flew away.
After the other ten or so people fed the horses, the group of people hit the road again.
On the way, the guards were also discussing what happened last night.
“Last night was really strange. The fire lit in our cave suddenly went out, and the horses suddenly became especially irritated.”
“Our cave was the same, but fortunately, we have the talisman that Mrs. Qi gave us previously.”
“No matter what, I think we should be careful from now on.”
After walking for half a day, they arrived at a very big valley.
Mrs. Guo said to Tang Li, “This valley will take at least two hours to cross. And at the end of it is the place I told you before that is covered in fog all year long. The terrain there is very complicated. If we’re not careful, we’ll get lost.”
Tang Li and Qi Yihan looked at each other.
Qi Yihan said, “I happen to have brought some detection equipment. As long as it’s a natural phenomenon, the detection equipment will show us the way out.”
Tang Li was a little surprised that he even planned this. The luggage he brought along was prepared by the bodyguards, but she did not look at what was inside.
She was suddenly curious about what was in that luggage.
Qi Yihan seemed to have read Tang Li’s mind and said, “When we get there, I’ll open the luggage for you to see.”
Tang Li nodded.
A group of people were riding horses along the valley.
The valley was actually quite steep, and there were a lot of stones of different sizes, so they still couldn’t move fast.
The sound of their hooves echoed across the valley and occasionally startled the birds on the cliff.
Every now and then, Mrs. Guo would tell them what kind of bird it was.
“The bird that sounded like a baby crying was called Soul Cry Bird. The sound they make during the day is different from the sound at night. In the day, it sounded like a baby crying, but at night, it sounded like an adult crying.”
Tang Li was amazed by what she heard. This was the first time she had heard of such birds. “Really? Are there any messages in their cries?”
“In the daytime, no. But at night, it cries when someone is about to die.”
“Does that mean it’s best not to hear this bird at night?”
“Right.”
“What if we did?”
“Nothing you can do.”
Mrs. Guo shook her head. “The Soul Cry Bird is just a bird. When it cries, it means that that person is going to die very soon.”
Hearing that, Tang Li did not say anything else.
An hour into their journey, the fog started to get stronger in the valley.
At first, it was faint. After walking for a while longer, the group of people had to stop and got off the horse.
Mrs. Guo said, “Let’s walk with the horses. They can’t navigate their way in this foggy environment.”
Qi Yihan took the luggage off his horse.
Tang Li walked over and saw him squatting down to open it.
The moment the luggage was opened, Tang Li widened her eyes in shock. “Yihan, did you bring a bag of equipment?”
There were all kinds of equipment with different uses. Many of the equipment looked strange, and Tang Li had never seen them before.
Qi Yihan looked at her shocked expression and smiled. “These are all equipment developed by my laboratory. A fog like this is usually caused by geology and some magnetic attraction. In that case, a detector can come in handy.”
After saying that, he took out a detector that looked like a compass about the size of his palm. There was something that looked like an arrow on the compass. He tested it for a while before handing the compass to Tang Li. He closed the luggage and placed it on the horse.
Tang Li examined the compass. When Qi Yihan took it, she said, “This looks like a feng shui compass.”
“Exactly, it was designed using the feng shui principle.”
Tang Li had never used a compass before, because why would she need one when she could just look at the sky and tell where to go.
However, Tang Li suddenly felt that with this kind of compass on her, she would look more like a master. She said, “I’ll get a compass too when I go back.”
“If you like it, this is yours.”
Qi Yihan said this very calmly as if the thing in his hand was a very cheap device. However, Mrs. Guo and the guards, who know the value of this thing, were surprised.
