Chapter 958 The Grave Robbers' Chronicles 46
Xie Yuchen and Hei Xiazi, being two shrewd individuals, naturally sensed something amiss and didn't press the matter further.
After another day of travel, Gu Wusi shortened what would have taken them several days to a single day, constantly moving at high speed.
So everyone was exhausted, especially those who were physically weak and rarely exercised.
"Rest for one night, and we'll arrive tomorrow." Gu Wusi was hungry and wanted to stop for dinner.
Wu Xie was clearly panting heavily, and his eyes lit up at the mention of rest: "I really can't go on anymore."
On the way, for some strange reason, he even slipped and fell twice on flat ground, making him look the most disheveled of everyone.
"How can a man say no?"
Black Bear picked a blade of grass, put it in his mouth, and said meaningfully.
"All I know is that I need to rest." Wu Xie gulped down water and sat on the ground, unable to get up, ignoring his teasing.
Fatty was tired too, but he wasn't as eccentric as Wu Xie.
"I'm exhausted, I really can't walk anymore, my legs don't even feel like my own anymore."
Gu Wusi looked at everyone's exhausted appearance, and then glanced at Zhang Qiling, who was still standing straight.
His physical strength was about the same as when he didn't use his spiritual power. He had been traveling all day and didn't feel anything.
Inside the bronze gate, the two fought monsters for three days and three nights before they felt quite tired.
Next up are Hei Xiazi, Xie Yuchen, A Ning, Pan Zi, A Ning's men, Fatty, and Wu Xie.
"Is Miss hungry? How about some green pepper and shredded pork fried rice?" Hei Xiazi walked up to Gu Wusi and started rummaging through her bag.
"Could you heat it up?" Gu Wu thought for a moment and didn't refuse.
"Of course, no problem. Just wait to eat. Blackie's service will be impeccable."
He went to find something to burn to start a fire, and he didn't look tired at all as he moved.
Xie Yuchen felt that he admired this person for seizing every opportunity to curry favor.
Noticing his gaze, Black Bear turned around.
"Would you like a serving, Mr. Flower? It'll cost you five hundred... Oh, I forgot you don't eat green peppers. What a pity, you can't have the same green pepper and shredded pork fried rice as us."
His tone was so smug that it made you want to punch him.
Hearing this, Xie Yuchen wanted to roll his eyes: "Give me one too, I want to try this fried rice and see how it's different from the others."
"Five hundred yuan, will you pay by card or cash?" Black Bear's smile deepened.
"Cash, there probably isn't a signal to swipe cards here." Xie Yuchen rummaged through his bag and deliberately took out a thousand yuan: "This is for two meals, plus Wu Si's."
Hei Xiazi only charged five hundred: "You don't need to pay for the young lady's share. She doesn't need to spend any money with me."
After saying that, he gave Gu Wusi a sly smile and raised an eyebrow.
If he accepts the money that Jie Yuchen paid for Gu Wusi, what does that mean? Doesn't it mean he admits that they are closer?
After taking the money, how am I supposed to pursue her? This young master Xie is quite cunning; he's even trying to scheme against me.
That's right, Hei Xiazi has figured it out, to hell with his worries and hesitations.
People like them, once they have a goal, will immediately take action to seize it; hesitation is not their style.
If Gu Wusi were to become someone else's, he would regret it just thinking about it. He couldn't bear to think about it.
Seeing that he didn't take it, Xie Yuchen could only take it back: "Heat up my meal too."
"Okay, boss, eighty yuan for labor." Black Bear grinned, skillfully ripping people off.
"Here you go, keep the change." Xie Yuchen rolled his eyes and handed him another hundred.
After receiving the money, Black Bear hummed his fried rice song as he heated up the rice.
Gu Wusi watched in amazement, marveling at how even a blind man could change his nature for love, and how Xie Yuchen had also joined in to trick people.
Just as I was thinking this, a hand holding a chocolate appeared in front of me and offered it to me.
"The food isn't ready yet, eat this first." Zhang Qiling sat down next to her.
Gu Wusi now sensed that many people were looking over with amused eyes.
She calmly accepted it: "Thank you."
The chocolate was too sweet, and the guy's persona crumbled.
All three are people she's had connections with in other parallel worlds, so it's a tough choice.
She decided not to choose at all and to see what they did; she preferred things to develop naturally.
"See how innocent he is? Even Little Brother is now fawning over people first!" Fatty nudged Wu Xie with his hand and said.
"Pah, pah, pah, what do you mean by 'fawning'? This guy is just showing concern for people, while that one over there is the one who fawned first."
Wu Xie pointed to Hei Xiazi, who was lighting a fire to heat up the food.
He glanced again at Xie Yuchen and Zhang Qiling, who were sitting on either side of Gu Wusi.
He simply couldn't bring himself to say anything to the two men who were trying to curry favor with him.
"This Miss Gu is really popular. They won't have a chance if they don't act fast. Three men vying for one woman, even Fatty has taken a liking to this kind of drama. Brilliant, brilliant!"
The fat man lay on the ground, looking completely comfortable and at ease.
Ah Ning also took a keen look at the situation of the three men and one woman.
This Gu Wusi is quite interesting; she has attracted the attention of several extraordinary men.
However, such a situation can easily be exploited by those with ulterior motives.
After one night, Gu Wusi led the way at a faster pace than before, and even Chen Wenjin, who was hiding in the shadows, found it somewhat difficult and strained to keep up.
Naturally, she didn't have the opportunity to cause trouble at will.
By the morning of the second day, most of them had caught up with Wu Sansheng's group.
In the afternoon, they went directly into the Palace of the Queen Mother of the West.
The people Ah Ning brought arrived safely, but they encountered a group of snakes with pheasant necks, and many of them perished.
Since everything is problematic anyway, might as well just die.
Gu Wusi didn't care about Wu Sansheng's veiled scrutiny and suspicious gaze.
It's normal for people to be wary of her, given that she's someone whose plans are otherwise unclear.
After Wu Xie was taken by Zhang Qiling to meet Chen Wenjin, Wu Sansheng's identity as Xie Lianhuan was revealed.
When Xie Yuchen found out, he told everyone not to wait for him, as he needed to stay and handle family matters.
Gu Wusi brought everyone to the Queen Mother of the West's Palace, so there was nothing left for her to do, and she disappeared again.
Zhang Qiling and Hei Xiazi were the first to discover that she was missing.
The former was already used to it; the last time they were at the underwater tomb, she left without making a sound.
The two reacted differently; the latter asked almost instantly, "We're missing one person."
"Who is it... Gu Wusi is missing again." Upon hearing this, Wu Xie turned around and counted the number of people.
"Again? She's done this before? I remember now, she did something similar back in the Heavenly Palace."
Hei Xiazi was surprised that he hadn't noticed Gu Wusi leaving at all.
It's like someone suddenly disappearing while you're walking; there's worry and a sense of helplessness.
Wu Xie nodded: "When we were in Xisha, she also left suddenly and without a word, just like Xiao Ge."
Zhang Qiling, who was mentioned, simply lowered his eyes and remained silent.
