Exposed 1175 traces

with the corner of his eye, and at the same time, he grabbed my hand that had reached into his clothes.I leaned over his shoulder, gazing into his dark eyes, the gold flecks within burning like embers...Border defense, just thinking about it makes me feel irritable.

Everything is fine here, the people are living and working in peace.

But once you cross over, there are all sorts of monsters and demons!

And the terrain here is very special, with many mountains and dense forests, inhabited by snakes, insects, rats, and ants.

In the past, people said that the south was a land of miasma, where civilization hadn't blossomed, the customs were rough and wild, the mountains were barren and desolate, the climate was hot and humid, and there were many poisonous creatures. Witchcraft and sorcery were prevalent.

It used to be a place for exile of serious criminals, but that saying is long gone now. However, there are still impoverished and dangerous places outside.

When people's survival is at stake, morality and order become luxuries. Ordinary people only consider survival issues. For survival, they take risks, crossing moral boundaries; there are too many who do anything to stay alive.

Aunt Lu's husband is one of them.

His husband was originally a businessman, and in order not to affect Lu Jie's career, their family business was registered under someone unrelated.

If nothing happens and we don't investigate, then everything will be calm.

But once something goes wrong, it's all over.

Sister Lu practically begged me to come to the border and see what was going on. My junior wife told me to go first, she could join me later through the Emperor's magical means.

So I packed a bag and rushed to the border, covered in dust and wind.

A tanned, lean and fit man drove to the airport to pick me up. He introduced himself as Mr. Xie and showed me his ID card.

“Miss Yin, I’ve been taken care of by Sister Lu a lot. This time she asked me to receive and welcome you. If you have any needs, just tell me… hey, is this backpack of yours a magic weapon for exorcising demons It looks very mysterious!” Brother Xie was very talkative and chatted with me all the way to the border.

I took a look in my backpack. It was packed with clothes, toiletries, shampoo, and the must-have sixGood cologne, wind oil essence, Yunnan Baiyao... compressed biscuits, water bottle, large scarf, sun protection clothing, and even hair styling products.

Weapon of the gods, huh

Because last time's messy experience left me traumatized, that disheveled state was truly heartbreaking. So this time, I decided to tie my hair up in a high ponytail and even brought along some hair gel for extra hold.

Probably this sharp look made Brother Xie think I was a seasoned "master."

"Xie Ge, are we going abroad" I asked in a low voice.

"Psst... I'll tell you, there's a village here right next to the border. You can go abroad just by walking there in the morning. We just have to move quietly and make sure no one sees us." Xie Ge said in a low voice.

"Is that even possible What if someone tries to bring in something bad" I asked, frowning.

“Don't you think they're stupid! How dare they do such a foolish thing! They just open one eye and close the other when it comes to daily life, production, and a little bit of trade—buying and selling things like fruit, rice, etc. These are matters of livelihood, so they loosen up a bit! We're so strict here, who would dare trade such foolish things in this place If they get caught, they'll be finished!”

Oh oh... I nodded repeatedly.

"We sneak out of the village at night, I know the backroads, Miss Yin, are you afraid"

".....I'm not afraid."

"Well, well, I knew you masters had guts."

"Well, I'm not a master, I just came to see the situation. My friends will be here soon."

"Is that so Would you like me to take it"

"No, no, my friend has his own transportation."

Why would my little junior sister need to be brought here Wherever I settle, the Emperor will sense my presence. One spell and he sent my junior sister over.

The Sovereign Lord doesn't seem to mind at all that his little wife is busy slaying demons and helping people. Maybe in his eyes, it's a necessary path for self-cultivation and accumulating virtue, rather than just sitting around reading scriptures all day.

Along the way, we reached a charming village before nightfall. There was a checkpoint here, as well as a street with ethnic flavor. Domestic tourism is everywhere.

But look across the street, it's dark and deserted. I'm sitting outside a charming cafe, enjoying the shade and using their WiFi. Across the way is just an ordinary road.

"Miss Yin, have something to eat first!" Xie Ge said while holding a tray, "I'm afraid you won't dare to eat things others give you, so I ordered some myself. Go order your food now."

This guy seems pretty worldly. I'm cautious about anything he's already had a sip of, like water, or any food he offers me.

I only feel comfortable putting something in my mouth after I've watched someone else eat it.

Xie Ge told me that this place gets lively at night, and some wealthy people from across the street come to eat and drink. Because this port is open until midnight, we can climb a mountain path around it later on.

"How long do we have to climb My body can't take too much strain." I said frankly.

"Huh Why"

"...I am pregnant."

"Pfffffff!! *cough cough*!" Xie Ge spat out a mouthful of iced juice, nearly spraying it on a tourist aunt. He was scolded by the aunt.

"Oh my goodness, I'm so sorry! I didn't realize you were pregnant... Well then, what are we going to do Walking this mountain path would be very difficult for you..."

"It's fine for a short time, I'm not that delicate... Just don't be gone for three days and three nights or anything."

"No, no!" Xie Ge waved his hand. "It'll take about two or three hours to get to the village... that village..."

He frowned and lowered his voice, "It's almost entirely reliant on Sister Lu's husband's business for survival. The people in that village all work in the jade mine, and there are also processing plants. The entire village has prospered because of Sister Lu's husband becoming wealthy, so he's very influential there. Sister Lu's husband calls the shots, even the village head listens to him."

"Well, I heard he has a few women over there too. If you see something like that, don't tell Sister Lu, just keep it between us. After all, their relationship is more like partners. Making things public wouldn't be good for anyone..."

I listened to Xie Ge's reminders while secretly taking him in.

He was a young man, yet he drove a Mustang and wore what looked like a Rolex watch. It seemed he had benefited greatly from Auntie Lu and her husband.

"Don't worry about this, I'm just here on assignment. I'm checking if there are any 'attachments' related to witchcraft or sorcery on Lu Jie's husband's side. My focus is solely on that aspect; I don't concern myself with anything else."

"Heh heh, that's good, that's good...Men, when they have money and power, they treat women as toys. They don't really mean anything, it's all pretense, they just take what they want! Most men are like that!"

Tsk, my man is nothing like that.

"Brother Xie, I want to ask you about someone..." I took out my phone and pointed to the only photo of Big Sister.c or respond to the general public with talk of ghosts and spirits.It stands to reason that if a country is governed by supernatural forces, what's the difference between it and an uncivilized tribeSo...
