Chapter 490 The Childe in the Tang Family Lives Off A Girl 57

The streets around this area are quite dirty, where all houses are old and single-story ones. According to the address Wuyou inquired about, she finds the store owner she saw in the daylight with ease. Unexpectedly, the store owner is not asleep yet.

“Perfect,” Shirla moves her wrist and says, “Then we don’t need to wake him up.”

Then what is the store owner doing? He is dividing the spoils.

In the small and shabby house, three people are gathering around a dirty and greasy table, where lie a pile of dollars as well as a few credit cards. They, who are speaking in the local dialect, may think the credit cards are useless. So they push them aside.

After that, they start to divide the money. After they are done with dividing, they all smile disgustingly and frivolously...

“Shall we go inside?” Shirla is fully prepared for the fight.

Wuyou stretches out her hand, strokes the door, and fixes her fist on a specific position. After that, as the joint of her forefinger bulges slightly, she jolts up all of a sudden, “Clatter!” The door opened.

“Whenever I see you perform this so-called... inch boxing, I find it quite amazing!” Shirla strokes Wuyou’s hand and finds out there is no injury at all.

They push the door and go into the room quietly.

The store owner, who is about to take out a bottle of wine for the celebration, sees there are two more persons in his room all of a sudden, feeling startled.

“Oh, it’s you!” Soon, he recognizes Wuyou and Shirla.

The other two men also walk forward and form an encircling position with the store owner, blocking Wuyou and Shirla in the corner.

They ask the store owner as they eye the two girls up and down with disgusting looks in their eyes, “Do you know them?”

The store owner giggles and says, “Do you forget them? They are the girls in my store in the daylight, aren’t they?”

“Girls from Hua Country? They are rich as well as beautiful.” The man stealing the wallet chuckles, “But, you are so amazing that you can even find me here.”

“Does that make any difference at all even though they are here?” Their partner says arrogantly, “You’re just two girls. Do you think you can get the money back from us?”

The store owner strokes his greasy beard and says, “How about this? You want money, right? If you serve us well, I will give the money back to you. What do you think?”

“Ha, ha, ha!” The other two men smile and one of them dares to go forward and intends to stroke Shirla’s leg.

Before he reaches Shirla’s leg, he exclaims miserably.

“Ah, ah, ah, ah!” The man rolls on the ground and is all bloody between his legs. He exclaims, stretches out, and takes out a piece of meat. As his partners see the shape of the meat, they, who are originally panicked, look more frightened.

“F**k!” The store owner throws the wine bottle on Shirla’s body, turns around, and runs away.

The store owner’s other partner rushes forward and starts fighting, who is kicked out by Wuyou and falls on the ground. At that time, the store owner goes back with a knife. Seeing that his other partner lay on the ground whiningly, he is hesitant for a while. After that, he turns around and runs at the door.

“Ah!” Shirla raises her hand, making the store owner lie flat on the ground. There is even a... fork stuck on his back, which he just took out from the kitchen for the celebration over the dinner.

“I will give the money back to you! To you,” The store owner howls, “I will give all my money to you. Please spare me! Spare me!”

Shirla kicks him and says, “Go. Take the money out.”

Putting up with the pain, the store owner runs to the front of his two partners staggeringly. As he sees the one who got castrated is not moving at all, he is so frightened that he fails to control himself and pees inside his trouser.

“Fool!” Shirla covers her nose, “Don’t get it dirty.”

The store owner takes out the money while weeping. His other partner, who isn’t injured, doesn’t move either. It is unknown whether he was killed by Wuyou’s kicking. The store owner tries to take the money out of his pocket. As he just puts his hand in, the man moves and glares at him.

The store owner ignores him and takes the money out shiveringly.

Wuyou asks, “Is it enough?”

Shirla finishes counting the cash and says, “Yes. Let’s go!”

They walk out of the door swaggeringly. As they are at the door, Wuyou turns her head and stares at the store owner, who is about to pick up his cell phone to call the police.

“You know quite well what kinds of things you have done to break the law. Even if we get arrested to the police station, I have the budget to get myself a lawyer. How about you?” After finishing her words, Wuyou and Shirla leave the store owner’s house.

The store owner sits on the ground in a daze and dials a call through in the end.

“Hello, is there an ambulance...?”

It is not until Gungun sees they come back that he goes inside the room from the balcony. As soon as he lies on the bed, there comes Wuyou’s text.

“Why are you still awake?”

Gungun doesn’t know how to reply to Wuyou’s text.

He is thinking about whether he should pretend to have fallen asleep or not hesitantly.

Then another text comes.

“I saw you on the balcony.”

Alright...

He replies, “I saw you go out.”

“Yes. The issue is solved. Go to sleep quickly.”

“Okay... Good night!”

Early in the morning the next day, they are about to visit Carl Shrine. Zhuang Qin and the female student, whose money was stolen yesterday, run over together, looking excited.

“Senior, senior!” They wave the wallets at their hands, “The police put the money at the reception area! All cash is there!”

Shirla chuckles, “Okay. Glad to hear that. Remember to post in Moments to praise the police in Ai Country.”

“Yeah. Of course!” Zhuang Qin nods. As she sees Gungun and Wuyou walking over, she pulls her classmate’s hand and runs away in a hurry.

Shirla raises her eyebrows and gets in the van. After Wuyou comes over and sits by her side, she talks to Wuyou in a low voice.

“The girl probably has figured out the situation. She runs away whenever she sees you and Gungun now.”

Gungun pokes his head out and asks across Wuyou, “What... what did you do to the store owner last night?”

“One was castrated and one was injured,” Shirla puts on the headset and adds, “So disgusting. We scared the shit out of the remaining one.”

Gungun is speechless, “...Thanks for your efforts.”

The shrine they will visit today is the most ancient one for worshiping in Ai Country, where ancient and magnificent Gods in the legends are worshiped. If it were nothing but a temple, it wouldn’t be that attractive to the tourists. What matters is that there is an underground labyrinth occupying a large area under the shrine.

“Based on the historical research, originally, there was an underground ancient city here, which probably showed up in the Tang Dynasty period of Hua Country. It is not in recent days that it is discovered. Moreover, due to the technical issues, one-third of the land hasn’t been probed yet. It means that we can’t see the whole look of the labyrinth today.”

The tour guide does the introduction for them at the entrance, “After we go into the labyrinth later, please follow me closely. The places which we can’t go to are set up with warning signs. If you are lost and separated from the crowd, you should follow the warning signs and walk along. All the internal paths are interconnected. So, everybody, you must watch out...”

Zhang Li stands there with a pale look on her face. After Wuyou notices her look, she stares at her.

“Ah! Wuyou. I... I dare not go somewhere black and small.” Zhang Li thinks she can’t catch her breath now.

Wuyou replies, “Claustrophobia.”

“...The name sounds pretty scary. F**k!” Yuan Yiming looks surprised, “I didn’t expect that you would have such a finicky illness.”

Zhang Li ignores him and says, “You go inside! I will wait for you at the entrance.”

Wuyou points and says, “Go to the pavilion. Don’t hang around randomly.”

It turns out the pavilion is a drinking bar instead. Zhang Li orders a cup of milk tea and watches them go inside.

The underground labyrinth is quite eye-catching. However, it is true that it is quite narrow. Standing in the passageway, only one person can stretch his hands out. Nor is it tall. It is constructed from stones, whose material and texture are mysteries. There is a small stone house every few steps away. There are beds, something looking like kitchen stoves, and even some crude furniture inside.

“Is it true that people in ancient times live underground?” Zhao Shen pouts his mouth, “Judging from the size of the houses, could it be that they are the Underground Fairies?”

“You surely played too many computer games,” Yuan Yiming despises him and says, “The way I see it, they are The Hobbit!”

Zhao Shen replies with surprise, “It is another possibility.”

Although one-third of the labyrinth isn’t open to the tourists, it takes them more than an hour to finish visiting the other two-thirds of the labyrinth. Since they don’t need to run, they follow the tour guide all the time and plan to exit when they are at the entrance.

They see a junior student at the middle school department running over in a panic.

“Senior Lang, something goes wrong,” He yells at Gungun, “Gu Li... Gu Li is missing.”

About dozens of minutes ago, as several juniors heard that they would walk back, they found the visit boring. After that, the two boys, who were good at making trouble, left the group sneakily, made a turn, and intended to visit the part of the labyrinth that wasn’t open yet.

“Originally, we thought we would come back after a short visit...” The junior almost bursts out crying and adds, “But Gu Li insisted that he had seen the light ahead and he would go to have a check. I couldn’t convince him. But I dared not go with him.”

Then the ill-fated Gu Li went forward on his own. At first, he could be seen. Then all of a sudden, he was gone.

“What the hell,” Yuan Yiming scolds him roughly, “Are you out of your mind? Didn’t we agree that we wouldn’t hang around randomly?”

It is dark underground. The topography here is complicated as well as narrow. If something does happen to Gu Li, it won’t be easy to rescue him.

“Woo, woo, woo... What should we do? Will... will Gu Li die?” The junior, who is originally scared, is scared by Yuan Yiming’s scolding so much that he bursts out crying directly.

The look on the tour guide’s face goes pale. He leaves and informs the staff members in the scenic area. The group leader leads them out in a hurry. After they get in the van, the group leader calls the roll and finds out a junior named Gu Li has gone missing in the end.

“You wait here and don’t go inside anymore.” The group leader gets out of the van and comes back a while later, “The staff members in the scenic area have gone down to look for Gu Li. He should be found soon.”

The group leader goes off the van every few while. Every time he comes back, the look on his face is more ghastly. In the end, an hour has passed. He says with a solemn look on his face that they called the police already since they couldn’t find the boy.

All the juniors are frightened. Some girls even cry in a low voice.

Wuyou, who frowns all the time, stands up and gets off the van in the end.

Gungun and Shirla follow her in a hurry. So do the other three, including Zhao Shen. Zhang Li asks straightforwardly, “Wuyou, could it be that you want to go inside to look for the boy?”

“I’d like to have a try.”

“No!”

As soon as Wuyou finishes her words, Gungun speaks.

“What will you do there? The police will be here later.” Never will Gungun allow Wuyou to go down.

Even the staff members in the scenic area have failed to find the boy. How come, Wuyou, who is here for the first time, can find Gu Li?

“What should you do if you get lost inside?”

“Ouch! Impossible!” Shirla snorts, “You shouldn’t insult Wuyou’s capability. Wuyou, I will go with you!”

Gungun glares at Shirla and thinks that she has misunderstood his point.

Sensing that Gungun is quite stubborn, Wuyou has no choice but to give in and says, “Let’s ask the staff members first.”

So they turn to the tour guide a moment ago, who leads them to where the staff members are. The staff members just returned from the underground labyrinth. Their waists are still tied with ropes.

“It is a solution.” As Shirla sees the scene, she is enlightened right away.

If they go inside with ropes tied on their waists, at least, they won’t get lost.
