Chapter 11 The Iron Chain Bridge Escape
Everyone's eyes lit up. They looked at me expectantly.
"Now step forward if you meet these three conditions!
One, you have never killed any living being in your life. Two, you have never cheated anyone emotionally. Three, you have always been vegetarian."
Everyone looked at one another.
Some faces tightened.
Some looked ashen.
Some still looked expectant.
Only one person stepped forward.
That was the Monk.
The Monk saw everyone staring at him and immediately chanted. "Amitabha."
I told the Monk to return to his room immediately.
No matter what happened in the inn next.
Do not come out.
The Monk hesitated as he looked at the crowd. Finally he sighed and shook his head.
After he returned to his room.
The sound of the wooden fish came from inside the door. Each beat seemed to strike the hearts of the crowd.
Meanwhile the woman's laughter outside grew closer and closer.
I knew Hua Pi Gui was already close to the inn.
I said urgently. "If you want to live, do exactly as I say."
I led them to the back of the inn and opened the back door.
The inn's back door stood at the edge of a cliff.
Only an Iron Chain Bridge led to the mountain on the other side.
Once they crossed the bridge, they would be out of the barrier.
The creatures inside could not pass.
This was their only chance to survive now.
"Women go first across the bridge. Once you reach the other side, you will be safe."
The bridge was narrow enough that only one person could cross at a time.
Upon hearing that I wanted women to go first.
Several men immediately protested.
"Why let the women go first!"
"They're too slow. Those of us behind won't make it. Won't we all die?!"
The lawyer pushed through the crowd and stepped forward.
He adjusted his glasses and threatened me. "In the face of the right to life, everyone is equal. I insist on going first. If you can, sue me!"
With that he pulled his girlfriend, who already had one foot on the bridge, back down.
He wanted to go first himself.
His girlfriend looked at him, eyes wide.
She cursed loudly. "I came to this damn place for you. Now for your survival you want me to die?!"
She pulled a USB drive from her pocket. "Fine. Now it's do or die. You secretly filmed Boss Huang's cheating video. It's all in my hands. Do you think Boss Huang will let you live if he knows?!"
The lawyer's face changed.
He was about to snatch the USB from his girlfriend's hand, but someone behind grabbed it first.
The boss they mentioned now looked at them with a livid face.
"I was wondering. Someone has been following me since I entered the mountain and staying at the same inn. Was it that tigress who sent you?!"
"Today Huang Youming is putting it here. Last time that tigress was lucky not to die from the fall down the mountain. When I get back I will deal with her properly!"
The boss's young girlfriend heard this.
She nestled into his arms.
"Boss Huang, I am not like them. Even if we die later, I will die by your side."
I stood by the door, watching the scene, and sighed.
They did not know that I could observe qi.
Their faces already looked marked by death.
If they kept seeking death, nothing could save them.
During their argument.
The Guo Meiyue who had been unconscious behind them had already woken up.
She stood behind Huang boss's young girlfriend. Her face somewhat sinister, she said. "Is what you said true?"
