Pursued by the Heavenly Dao, first level up in the courtyard.

The fastest speed of telekinesis is close to 28,000 meters per second, which is just over 81 times the speed of sound. It is only more than three times the maximum speed of Iron Man's Mark 85 nanometer armor 2.0, which is 8,000 meters per second, but not even four times.

The speed of light is approximately 300,000 kilometers per second, and Qi Bing's current speed of divine thought flight is less than one ten-thousandth of the speed of light.

When Qi Bing uses teleportation, he can teleport up to 3,000 kilometers at a time, and he can teleport up to 10 times per second. His current maximum teleportation speed can reach one-tenth of the speed of light.

"In the small world of the courtyard, my maximum teleportation speed can reach one-tenth of the speed of light. In other small worlds, I may not be able to teleport, and even if I can, my speed will be greatly reduced."

"If I were in a Middle Thousand World, my strength would definitely be greatly reduced, since a Middle Thousand World is one level higher than a Lesser Thousand World."

With his strength greatly increased, Qi Bing was filled with pride and arrogance. But when he thought of the Heavenly Dao, his pride and arrogance lasted less than three minutes before they vanished.

Anyone who has a mortal enemy like the Heavenly Dao cannot be arrogant until they defeat it.

Tan Guilan, who was Yi Zhonghai's wife, accidentally discovered the affair between Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu. She was filled with grief and indignation, but was powerless to resist.

With her family gone and no one to rely on, Tan Guilan was counting on Yi Zhonghai to support her.

Realizing his wife had discovered his affair with Qin Huairu, Yi Zhonghai was terrified. After weighing the pros and cons, he decided to take action.

Once you've done something once, you'll do it a second time, a third time... countless times.

Yi Zhonghai, who successfully sent He Daqing, Jia Dongxu, and Zhang Cuihua away, is already very skilled at sending people to their deaths.

Yi Zhonghai thought to himself, "If Guilan is gone, Qin Huairu can do the laundry and cooking. It's just that Banggeng, Xiaodang, and Huaihua will be left unattended. At worst, I can spend some money to have Yang Ruihua take care of them."

"Without Guilan, I have no wife, and Huairu has no husband. If Huairu and I get a marriage certificate, Banggeng, Xiaodang, and Huaihua will be my children, and I can become a father. It may not sound good, but it is reasonable and legal."

The more Yi Zhonghai thought about it, the more agitated he became. After much deliberation, he decided to drug Tan Guilan.

Tan Guilan, who regularly takes medicine, adds other herbs to her herbal decoctions without anyone noticing.

Now that someone in the family has died, the people won't report it and the officials won't investigate. As long as nothing unusual is found, no one will suspect anything.

After planning for several days, Yi Zhonghai began to take action. Tan Guilan, who was taking medicine every day, was getting healthier and healthier.

In less than a month, Tan Guilan stretched out her legs and went into the sky.

"I can't believe this old lady actually died?"

"Everyone dies sooner or later, and this old lady already had heart disease."

"Tan Guilan is only forty-eight years old this year, but most of her hair has already turned white."

"After the old lady left, life became difficult for the old man. When the old lady was alive, she did all the housework, such as washing clothes, sweeping, and cooking. Now that she's gone, the old man has to do all the housework himself."

"With Tan Guilan gone, there will be no one to take care of Qin Huairu's child."

"Banggeng and Xiaodang are both in elementary school, and there's only Huaihua, so we can just find someone to look after her."

"Huaihua is three years old this year and can already go to daycare."

The Intermediate People's Court, the Yi family.

Yi Zhonghai looked at his motionless wife, Tan Guilan, and crocodile tears streamed down his face.

Several neighbors, seeing Yi Zhonghai's heartbroken state, were moved by his and Tan Guilan's loving relationship through thick and thin.

The front yard, the Ye family's house.

The three time travelers from the Time Traveler Alliance are discussing the death of Tan Guilan.

Li Kun asked in confusion, "Old Lin, Tan Guilan was still alive in the play in 1966, how come she's dead now?"

Lin Fan said, "The old lady in the TV series seems to have died in the winter of 1976."

Ye Qiu frowned: "Dying twelve years prematurely is not normal."

Lin Fan said calmly, "This courtyard world has already mutated. Isn't it normal for an old lady to die twelve years early?"

Li Kun laughed and said, "With Tan Guilan dead, Yi Zhonghai's days are numbered."

Lin Fan laughed and said, "With Tan Guilan dead, Yi Zhonghai's life will be much easier. There will be no obstacles between him and Qin Huairu. If he marries Qin Huairu, he will have both a son and a daughter and become a father."

Li Kun whispered, "It is said that the original name of the Siheyuan TV series was Shazhu. When Shazhu was old and could not earn money, he was thrown under a bridge by a stick and froze to death. He was also eaten by wild dogs. In the end, Xu Damao helped Shazhu collect his body."

Lin Fan speculated, "If Yi Zhonghai marries Qin Huairu, will he be thrown out by the authorities when he gets old?"

Li Kun laughed and said, "It's something to look forward to."

Ye Qiu said, "It's very unlikely that Yi Zhonghai will be thrown out. He's a level seven fitter in the factory and will receive a retirement pension. In rural areas, sending off an elderly person reduces the burden, but in the city, sending off an elderly person means losing an income."

After thinking for a moment, Li Kun said, "In this world of courtyard houses, each state has established industrial and agricultural groups. The people who farm in the countryside are no different from the workers in the city. They all receive pensions when they reach the age of sixty-five."

Lin Fan pondered for a few seconds, then said, "If Yi Zhonghai marries Qin Huairu, Bang Geng will definitely resent him. When Yi Zhonghai is about to die, Bang Geng will likely throw him out."

Ye Qiu nodded: "That's true. When Yi Zhonghai is about to die, he can only collect his pension for two or three more months at most. The gangsters who have resented Yi Zhonghai for many years are very likely to prevent him from dying at home."

Qi Bing, who lived in the neighboring east courtyard, learned of Tan Guilan's death and, after some calculation, knew the cause of her death.

"Yi Zhonghai could be so vicious as to harm Tan Guilan, with whom he had shared a bed for many years."

Qi Bing had no intention of dealing with Yi Zhonghai, firstly because of the aura of the film character, secondly because Yi Zhonghai posed no threat to him or his family, and thirdly because Tan Guilan was not a good person to begin with.

Back when the deaf old lady was still alive, Tan Guilan and the deaf old lady often said that parents were unkind and children were unfilial, sowing discord between Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu and Liu Haizhong and his wife.

Tan Guilan knew perfectly well about He Daqing sending money and letters back. During the time when He Yuzhu took He Yushui to collect recyclables, hunger was the norm, but Tan Guilan turned a blind eye to it.

Tan Guilan in the courtyard passed away, and Liu Haizhong called on everyone to help.

Although there are many wild animals in the courtyard, they will lend a hand to their neighbors' happy events and funerals.

There are always exceptions, and Qi Bing from the east courtyard is one of them. He has very little contact with the people in the main courtyard; if you do the math, he hasn't been to the main courtyard for several years.

The backyard, the Liu family's house.

Chen Rong sighed, "My dear husband, Tan Guilan was such a good person, and she's dead."

Liu Haizhong rolled his eyes and said, "If Tan Guilan is a good person, then there are many good people in this world."

Chen Rong was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Isn't Tan Guilan a good person?"

Liu Haizhong said, "How could Tan Guilan not know that Yi Zhonghai intercepted the letter He Daqing sent back?"

Chen Rong nodded: "You're right, Tan Guilan definitely knows what Yi Zhonghai did."

Liu Haizhong whispered, "Let me tell you, I saw Yi Zhonghai sneaking into the Jia family's house in the middle of the night a while ago."

Chen Rong exclaimed incredulously, "Impossible!"

Liu Haizhong said, "It's easy to draw the skin of a tiger, but hard to draw its bones; it's easy to know a person's face, but hard to know their heart. I never expected Yi Zhonghai to be this kind of person."

Chen Rong, quick-witted, asked, "Honey, do you think Yi Zhonghai was behind Tan Guilan's death?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Haizhong was stunned. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "It's probably very unlikely. After all, Yi Zhonghai and Tan Guilan have a very good relationship, and Tan Guilan herself is ill. Perhaps Tan Guilan already knew about Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu's affair."

Chen Rong whispered, "Honey, do you think Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu will get their marriage certificate?"

After a few seconds of silence, Liu Haizhong said, "If Yi Zhonghai marries Qin Huairu, he can immediately become a father, with both a son and a daughter."

Yi Zhonghai provided the money, Yan Bugui purchased the ingredients and kept the accounts, and He Yuzhu was in charge of cooking.

Tan Guilan's body was kept for three days before she was laid to rest.
