Chapter 43: They Deserve It
The farce ended with the soldiers scolding the women and told them to stop framing other people.
"But we’re not lying and..."
"Just look at her and see if she can really fight against three people at once. Moreover it’s dark at night and you don’t even see your attacker. Can you guarantee that it’s really her who did it? I remind you that false perjury is crime." The female soldier looked at these three women who continued to make trouble coldly.
It was cold and everyone was tired after coming to this temporary shelter. There were too many people who made trouble every single day that the female soldier didn’t want to see even a single one of them anymore.
Because she would feel like beating them all up without exception.
And before they came here with flashlight, the entire area was extremely dark. Today was moonless and because these three women were here to snatch Yu Shi Lan’s bag, they will naturally not turn on their flashlight.
Thus, they have never seen who their opponent is from the beginning until the end.
They believed that it was Yu Shi Lan who beat them up simply because they were targeting her and if there was anyone who has a reason to beat them, it would be her.
But...
There’s no evidences.
The three women couldn’t explain why they were here when their sleeping place was actually so far away.
"I..."
"Go back now!"
Yu Shi Lan watched as the three women were being scolded and lightly stroked the head of Xiao Mao that peeked out. The little cat was a bit curious about these things and felt that it was really interesting to see them being beaten up one by one.
"Meow." <They deserve it.>
Those who harmed others had to be ready to be harmed back.
This was how the causal law worked and cultivators were people who paid close attention to the causal laws among many other laws. Of course, there were also those who didn’t pay attention to these things because of the specific paths that they have taken.
Yu Shi Lan’s path was more of the grey area.
It was not as extreme as those in the dark path but it was not as righteous as those in the light path either.
But this was also the path that Yu Shi Lan was most comfortable in.
If there were people who offended her, she will beat them up without mercy. But she would not intentionally provoke other people for no reason. She was not so bored that she wanted to cause trouble for others when she had other things to do.
’It would have been better if they hadn’t made trouble,’ Yu Shi Lan communicated mentally with Xiao Mao.
Her eyes landed on the girls’ injuries before she looked away.
Even though she hadn’t planned to hold back that much, but her body’s control was not as good as it used to be. She had been weak and malnourished for too long that it was difficult for her to control her body perfectly.
Otherwise, two of them would have died from being fatally wounded within a few seconds.
But....
’With the current medical situation, it will be a miracle if they could survive.’
After seeing the condition of that knife, the injury, and the blood that has been lost, Yu Shi Lan could guess more or less about the situation of their injury.
They had lost too much blood and in the next period of time, they had to take care of themselves.
At least, they would not bother her again.
And sometimes... being alive is worse than death.
"Go back to sleep and stop watching the fun." The female soldier waved her hand the people dismissed.
They went back to their respective resting place without hesitation and rested quietly for the night. The three girls were brought out through different ways while being helped by the nurse who were present on the scene.
Yu Shi Lan looked at the scene for a moment before closing her eyes.
Forget it.
No matter what happened to them in the future, it had nothing to do with her.
...
The rest of the night passed by quietly.
After that one drama, it seemed that other people were no longer so eager to move. What if there was someone who attacked them in the middle of the night like those three girls?
Even if they were girls, but fighting three against one was definitely not an easy thing to do.
So they chose to refrain themselves from stepping forward to cause trouble.
"Meow..." <The temperature is getting colder, Miss... is this the same as your first life?>
Xiao Mao woke up and shivered in Yu Shi Lan’s pocket clothes. She hadn’t felt anything before, but now... she felt that this place was really not suitable to live.
