Chapter 165 A miraculous escape from death inevitably brings good fortune.
Although Li Yi acted quickly, there were simply too many people inside the warehouse.
In addition, he focused most of his attention on Zhao Liangli, which is why he missed the man in the suit.
Wang Tao is currently in the hands of the man in the suit, and there are still dozens of meters between them. No matter how fast he is, he can't outrun the dagger.
Seeing the scratch on her neck, Li Yi quickly said, "Sister Wang, don't move!"
The man in the suit looked at his accomplice rolling around on the warehouse floor, his face filled with panic.
The move Li Yi just made was absolutely terrifying.
If he hadn't reacted a little faster, he would definitely be lying on the ground right now.
Even now that he had Wang Tao in his grasp, he still couldn't stop trembling. "Boy, release Third Master right now!"
Li Yi glanced at Zhao Liangli in his hand, then at Wang Tao, "Let's both let go."
The man in the suit quickly shook his head.
The strength Li Yi just displayed was such that even ten of them wouldn't be a match for him.
If I really let go of the woman in my hands, what's the difference between that and courting death?
"Kid, release her first. I'll release her after we leave."
"No, they have to be put together!"
Li Yicai wouldn't believe his nonsense.
If Zhao Liangli is released, then I will have no leverage left, and Wang Tao will be in even greater danger.
For a moment, the two were frozen in place.
The man in the suit looked around, and when he saw the cold storage room not far away, his eyes lit up. "Kid, you go in there now, and then we'll release the people together!"
Li Yi followed his gaze and thought it was just an ordinary storage room.
Seeing the man in the suit tighten his grip on the dagger, he could only nod in agreement. "If you dare to try anything funny, don't blame me for being impolite."
"Don't worry, as long as you go in obediently, I'll definitely let them go!"
Upon seeing that Li Yi had indeed entered the cold storage, the man in the suit immediately showed a look of delight.
Then, he hid at the entrance of the cold storage, ready to close the door at any time. "Kid, let's release the people together now."
Li Yi thought the man in the suit wanted to lock him in the storage room and then escape with Zhao Liangli.
However, as long as Wang Tao can be replaced, they can settle accounts with them anytime afterward.
"Alright, let's count to three and release them all at once."
"no problem!"
So, the man in the suit grabbed Wang Tao, and Li Yi grabbed Zhao Liangli, and the two began exchanging hostages at the door.
"one two three!"
To ensure Wang Tao's safety, Li Yi didn't do anything shady.
When the man in the suit pushed Wang Tao over, he also pushed Zhao Liangli out.
Bang!
Just as Li Yi pulled Wang Tao into his arms, the door to the cold storage was closed.
However, he didn't pay any attention to it.
"Waaah~"
Li Yi quickly removed the hood from Wang Tao's mouth and untied the ropes binding her.
After being freed, Wang Tao immediately threw herself into Li Yi's arms, crying, "Little Li!"
Li Yi quickly patted her back, "It's alright, Sister Wang."
Outside the cold storage.
The man in the suit helped Zhao Liangli up. "Third Master, are you alright?"
Zhao Liangli, who had just escaped, was both shocked and furious. "That brat! I'll tear him to pieces!"
The man in the suit quickly said, "Third Master, don't worry, that kid is locked in the cold storage now. This time, he can't escape!"
Zhao Liangli was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, and then he remembered that this warehouse was originally where Guang Shengtang stored medicinal herbs and products.
The cold storage rooms there can reach temperatures as low as minus fifty degrees Celsius.
Faced with such low temperatures, a normal person simply couldn't endure it for long.
"Haha, well done! I'll make him freeze to death inside. Then, the Thirteen Ghost Needles will be mine."
Bang!Bang!Bang!
Li Yi banged on the door a few times and finally realized something was wrong.
This storage room is actually made entirely of metal.
Even with all his might, he couldn't break the door open.
"That shouldn't be the case. How can the door to a mere storage room be so hard?"
Just as Li Yi was wondering, he suddenly heard the sound of fan blades turning.
He looked up and noticed that several fans were installed above the entire storage room.
A gust of cold wind swept over him, and Li Yi finally came to his senses.
Oh no! This isn't just an ordinary storage room, it's clearly a cold storage facility!
"Achoo!"
Wang Tao sneezed.
Seeing this, Li Yi quickly went over and asked, "Sister Wang, what's wrong?"
Wang Tao said, shivering, "It's okay, I'm just a little cold."
Li Yi glanced at her thin dress and frowned.
My physical condition has long since reached its limit, and I also have internal energy, so I don't need to worry about the temperature dropping for the time being.
But Wang Tao definitely couldn't endure it.
"Sister Wang, hang in there for a moment, I'll figure out a way to get out as soon as possible."
"it is good."
After comforting Wang Tao, Li Yi walked to the door again.
This time, he tried to mobilize the internal energy within his body, wrapping it around his fist, and then smashed it out with all his might.
Bang!
After a loud bang, the tightly closed door remained motionless.
"Again!"
Li Yi gritted his teeth and continued throwing punches.
Bang!Bang!Bang!
Unfortunately, after smashing it dozens of times, all they managed to create was a small dent in the door.
At this rate, no matter how much we smash it, we won't be able to open the door.
Seeing this, Li Yi had no choice but to stop for the time being.
He turned to look at Wang Tao, who was squatting on the ground.
At this moment, the temperature inside the cold storage has dropped to around thirty degrees Celsius.
Wang Tao curled up in a ball, and a layer of white frost appeared on her eyebrows and hair.
"Sister Wang, how are you?"
"I...I'm fine..."
Li Yi squatted down and checked Wang Tao's condition.
Her exposed skin had begun to freeze slowly, and if this continued, all the cells in her body would die.
In the end, he froze to death.
Seeing this, Li Yi quickly reached out and began to massage Wang Tao's body.
At the same time, he also transferred his internal energy into the other person's body.
Under the extreme cold, Wang Tao's consciousness was already somewhat hazy.
However, as Li Yi channeled his internal energy into her, her body began to warm up slowly, and she gradually regained consciousness.
"Xiao Li... why do I suddenly feel so hot all over? Am I going to die?"
"Sister Wang, I'm using my internal energy to help improve your blood circulation, that's why you feel hot. Don't worry, we'll be fine."
Internal strength?
Wang Tao was stunned for a moment, then quickly stopped him, saying, "Xiao Li, stop right now!"
"What's wrong, Sister Wang?"
"Save your internal energy, that way you can survive; otherwise, we'll both die here."
Upon hearing this, Li Yi shook his head. "Sister Wang, my physical condition is far beyond that of ordinary people. Even without internal energy, I am not afraid of the cold. You don't need to worry."
"No! Even if you're in great health, you definitely can't withstand such a low temperature. Just leave me alone."
At this moment, the temperature inside the cold storage had dropped to minus fifty degrees Celsius, but it stopped dropping further.
Although Li Yi felt a little cold, he could handle it perfectly.
His only worry now is that his internal energy is limited. If he exhausts it all before the door opens, Wang Tao will truly be doomed.
After thinking for a moment, Li Yi simply paused what he was doing and prepared to give it a try.
"Sister Wang, come into my arms!"
"what?"
