Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Suddenly Made a Comeback!-Chapter 136 - : Jiang Li Can Actually Draw Talismans?!

Chapter 136: Chapter 136: Jiang Li Can Actually Draw Talismans?!

A few people retraced their steps back to the place they had just been.

They continued straight up the mountain path until the trees became denser and the road at their feet grew more rugged.

Aunt Ying grew increasingly uneasy.

“Why would Lai Fu run up the mountain? It’s usually so well-behaved.”

[Damn, Chixia Village actually has places like this, the desolate forest looks so scary.]

[Help, isn’t this supposed to be a transformation show? How did it turn into extreme adventuring?]

...

[Jiang Li is still leading the way in front. She really isn’t scared.]

[Doesn’t any wilderness survival show want to recruit Sister Li? I want to see her take down a savage with an axe.]

[What are you talking about upstairs? Our Lili is beautiful and intelligent, she couldn’t possibly be that kind of person.]

Hearing this, Zhao Lang steadied Aunt Ying, “Don’t worry, nothing’s wrong. People from the village often come and go in this forest. Lai Fu probably just got bored at home and ran this far.”

Zhao Lang’s words significantly comforted Aunt Ying, and she nodded before continuing to follow behind Jiang Li.

After walking further inside, Jiang Li suddenly stopped.

“It should be here, no mistake.”

Aunt Ying hastened her calls.

“Lai Fu, Lai Fu, where have you gone? Come to mommy.”

However, no matter how much she called, the forest remained silent, without the slightest stir.

Even the people in the live broadcast noticed something amiss.

[Did Lai Fu encounter some danger? Dogs are extremely sensitive, it’s impossible for these people to have been searching for so long without any sign.]

[Is Jiang Li playing tricks again? Maybe Lai Fu isn’t even here, and she’s just leading people to this place to draw in viewers!]

[How did it turn into a suspense drama? Lai Fu, please be okay. Otherwise, this dog lover will truly break down in tears.]

Aunt Ying continued calling in the same spot, and the camera operator started helping her search as well.

Meanwhile, Jiang Li left the path and walked towards the deeper part of the forest.

Zhao Lang took note of her actions and quietly followed her.

“What’s wrong?” he whispered.

“Lai Fu is likely more unlucky than lucky,” Jiang Li said, “I’ve estimated that its life thread has almost run out.”

Zhao Lang’s expression turned serious as well.

“I had guessed as much.”

Jiang Li was surprised, “Then why did you say that to Aunt Ying just now?”

“Before the truth is discovered, even a second of false hope is enough,” Zhao Lang said, looking ahead, “I didn’t want to see Aunt Ying grieve too soon.”

Jiang Li squinted her eyes.

The man actually had a heart.

Zhao Lang passed by her and walked a few steps ahead, “There are many traps laid by the hunters from the village in this forest. I was injured by these things a month ago. I fear Lai Fu has suffered the same fate. I roughly know where they are; come with me.”

As expected, they hadn’t taken many steps before they found Lai Fu trapped and struggling against a snare.

It lay on the ground breathing its last, one leg tightly clamped in a bear trap, and blood from the wound had stained a large area of the fallen leaves red.

It was evident that it was in extreme pain and weakness; even when Jiang Li and the others approached, it gave no reaction at all.

Jiang Li furrowed her brows.

“It’s beyond saving.”

Having lost so much blood, with its leg bitten off by the sharp teeth of the trap, even if they took it to the hospital now, there was no cure.

“Indeed,” said Zhao Lang as he squatted down and started to stroke Lai Fu’s body.

Lai Fu finally showed a reaction, lifting its head with difficulty to look at him and whimpered lowly twice.

Zhao Lang’s hand paused.

He understood very well what that look meant.

So, he let out a sigh.

“Ah, forget it. I’ll be the bad guy.”

He found Lai Fu’s vital point and guided it through its last journey.

Jiang Li naturally noticed his move, and subconsciously wanted to stop him, but her hand stopped mid-air.

She understood Zhao Lang’s approach.

Lai Fu was beyond saving, and instead of releasing it from the trap and causing further pain, it was kinder to let it pass swiftly.

What she hadn’t expected was Zhao Lang’s decisiveness.

This person.

Was truly extraordinary.

Aunt Ying and the camera PD arrived soon after.

The moment Aunt Ying saw Lai Fu, it was like the world went dark for her, and she immediately wanted to rush over.

“Lai Fu, oh my Lai Fu.”

Zhao Lang hurried to support her, his slender eyebrows also tightly knit.

“Aunt Ying, I’m sorry…”

Despite the camera being quickly angled away, the live-stream audience could still guess the outcome from the conversation.

[My god, Lai Fu really met with tragedy…]

[I’m devastated, seriously, Lai Fu was so adorable. Just yesterday I was saying how much it looked like my golden retriever. Now I’ve put myself in Aunt Ying’s shoes, I’m bawling my eyes out.]

[How could this happen? Who would set such a trap in the forest? It’s outrageous.]

[This isn’t another one of Jiang Li’s scripts, is it? Abusing animals for views? Disgusting.]

[??? Could some of you please not be so malicious in your assumptions? Lili was petting Lai Fu just yesterday, and Lai Fu liked her too. Those who call this a script, I urge you to watch your words and accumulate some spiritual merit!]

Although she found it difficult to bear, Jiang Li stepped forward as well.

She glanced at Zhao Lang, then placed her hand on Aunt Ying’s shoulder.

“Aunt Ying, please accept my condolences. No one wants to witness such accidents, but it’s happened. Let’s take good care of Lai Fu’s remains.”

“I’ve brought some talisman paper. I’ll draw some Eternal Life Talismans for you later to send to your house, to ensure Lai Fu’s safety and happiness in its next life.”

Whether humans and beings have afterlives was something she couldn’t know.

But to preserve hope for the future, she chose to believe that this passage truly existed.

As expected, after hearing these words, Aunt Ying raised her head, looking at her with a mix of excitement and emotion.

“Really, you can do that?”

Jiang Li nodded, “If you believe in my abilities.”

Aunt Ying, tears streaking down her face, took hold of her hand, “Girl, it’s Lai Fu’s fortune to have met you. Thank you. If it weren’t for you, it might have lay out here in the wilderness for days…”

Jiang Li said nothing else, only gripping Aunt Ying’s hand in return.

Zhao Lang stepped forward, found some dry grass to cover Lai Fu, then placed it in his own backpack.

After helping bury Lai Fu with Aunt Ying and her family, he accompanied Jiang Li back to the cabin.

Watching her take out several pieces of talisman paper and cinnabar from her luggage.

The girl sat at the table, seriously grinding cinnabar to draw talismans.

The live-stream audience was amazed.

[Holy cow, Jiang Li can really draw talismans. I thought she was just boasting.]

[Is there someone in this profession that can explain? Is Jiang Li bluffing or for real?]

[My dad is a Taoist. I’ve been following Jiang Li for a long time now. I can absolutely guarantee that what she’s drawing is a Rebirth Talisman! Such talismans are extremely difficult to create, plus the person drawing them needs profound power for them to be effective. Wait till she burns them, and you’ll see. The darker the flame, the stronger the curse.]

[For real? Isn’t this deceiving people? We live in a rule-of-law society, let’s not dabble in such nonsense.]

[Belief makes it real, disbelief negates it, friends. You may not believe, but please watch your behavior and avoid bringing disaster upon yourselves through words.]

Zhao Lang watched the vigorous strokes of her pen, and suddenly smiled.

“Miss Jiang, if you have the time, why don’t you draw a few Eternal Life Talismans for me?”

Jiang Li paused her pen, looking at him in confusion.

Such talismans were not good omens for the living. Why would he ask for them?

Zhao Lang took a step forward, his figure obscured by the shadow of the door, elusive and unclear.

“For those who have not found peace in death, isn’t this talisman the best of consolations?”
