Chapter 944 The Grave Robbers' Chronicles 32
Zhang Qiling certainly wouldn't watch people bathe. He quickly finished processing the fish, turned his back, stood up, and left the pool.
After taking a shower, Gu Wusi took out a set of comfortable loungewear from her spatial storage and put it on.
She burned the clothes she had taken off, which were covered in blood.
When she got back, she saw Zhang Qiling grilling fish.
There were three other fish on a rock nearby.
“I’ll do these three things. You go and wash up too. The blood from those things splattered on your clothes stinks.”
Zhang Qiling handed her the grilled fish and silently left.
Once everyone left, Gu Wusi took out bowls, plates, various seasonings, and spices.
First, marinate the fish for steaming. Then, take out two portable gas stoves and a pot to make braised fish.
By the time the braised fish was ready, Zhang Qiling had returned.
Gu Wusi then told him to pour out the cooking wine from the marinated fish and put it in a pot to steam.
Grilled fish, braised fish, steamed fish—luckily, none of the three fish were very big, enough for two people to finish.
Gu Wusi also brought out other dishes: two plates of green vegetables, a plate of braised pork ribs, a plate of chicken stew with mushrooms, and a bowl of rice.
The two of them ate seven dishes, and the portion of each dish was not very large.
For them, who had been hungry for three days and had also expended a lot of energy, it was enough to finish the food.
As for whether eating so much after being hungry for a long time will be bad for the stomach or cause discomfort.
That's not true; they're all in good health.
After eating and drinking his fill, Zhang Qiling went to wash the dishes, since Gu Wusi had cooked them.
He must have been very satisfied with his meal, because he reached for the chicken stew with mushrooms with his chopsticks at least five or six times.
After dinner, Gu Wusi took out a recliner, lay down on it, and rocked back and forth, feeling very comfortable.
Xiao Qi returned at this time.
"Host, I'm back."
"So you finally decided to come back? I thought you'd been kidnapped."
"No, I just left not long ago."
"If half a month is considered not a long time, then it really isn't long," Gu Wusi chuckled twice.
"Huh? Half a month has already passed?"
"Half a month has passed outside, but more than a month has passed here."
Xiao Qi was a little surprised: "Time is passing by too fast!"
"Okay, tell me what you've learned."
“Okay, I’ve been negotiating with Tiandao for a long time, and he has finally revealed some clues to us.”
"Tell me... wait, I need to call home first, get my phone on signal quickly."
"No problem, host."
When Gu Wusi made the call back, he unsurprisingly received extremely anxious questions and expressions of concern from his family.
She could only explain that they had gone to a place with no signal and comfort them repeatedly before she could calm them down.
He also informed them that he would stay longer before going home.
Although the idea was initially met with opposition from the family.
But Gu Wusi, true to the original owner's nature, used both coquettishness and whining to get everyone to agree.
The call lasted for more than two hours. After hanging up, she felt exhausted, both physically and mentally, even more tired than when she was fighting monsters.
Xiao Qi: "Host, shall I continue..."
"Stop talking, let me take a nap first."
Gu Wusi went back and lay down on her chaise lounge, closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.
Zhang Qiling sat at the doorway and glanced inside.
I don't understand why she looks so tired after just one trip out.

"Brother Xiaohua, didn't you go somewhere with Wusi? Why hasn't she come back yet?"
Huo Xiuxiu has come to see Xie Yuchen for the third time, and each time she has asked about this matter.
Xie Yuchen put down the documents in his hand and rubbed the corner of his eye: "She has things to do and can't come back for the time being."
Upon hearing this, Huo Xiuxiu didn't dare to ask what it was about, as it was a personal matter.
If it were possible, Little Flower Brother would probably tell her the truth.
"Won't she be in danger?"
Xie Yuchen wasn't sure either, so he changed the subject: "The Gu family is quite quiet, which means she's alright."
After he returned, he instructed people to keep an eye on the Gu family's situation.
Thinking that Gu Wusi had said he had a way to deal with his family, he figured he wouldn't make them worry.
Everyone in the circle knows how much the Gu family dotes on Gu Wusi.
So the fact that they can remain calm after so much time has passed means that Gu Wusi must have informed his family that he is safe.
Huo Xiuxiu was relieved: "It's good that everything is alright. I wonder when Wusi will be back. I should have gone with you guys."
Upon hearing this, Xie Yuchen curled his lips: "You think you can leave? Your grandma won't let you go."
"Sigh, unless I go without Grandma knowing, I don't know who to play with when Wusi is around."
"You seem to really like her?" Xie Yuchen asked, though he himself was also puzzled.
Logically speaking, since they all grew up in complicated family environments, it would be difficult for them to easily open up to others and treat people as true friends.
But Gu Wusi was strange; she wasn't the kind of person who was very approachable or naturally gentle.
But she seems to possess a kind of magical power that draws people in, making it easy to develop an initial liking for her.
"I like her. I feel very comfortable around her, but I can't explain it in detail."
Huo Xiuxiu is not without vigilance; she has a wide social circle, but none of them can be considered true friends.
Xie Yuchen agreed with what she said.
Gu Wusi was unaware of their thoughts; otherwise, she would have known the reason.
Besides his own personal charm, there is also the Bai Ze bloodline in his body.
This kind of bloodline makes people feel close to you and easily develop a good impression.

When Gu Wusi woke up, she checked her phone and realized she had slept for a whole day.
They went out of the wooden house but didn't see Zhang Qiling, and they didn't know where he had gone.
After washing up, she sat down on the recliner and took a bottle of yogurt to drink.
"Xiao Qi, do you still need the energy in here?"
Xiao Qi: "Logically speaking, the system is already at its maximum level and shouldn't be needed anymore, but it can still be absorbed."
"What about that crack? Can it be patched up?"
"It can be repaired, but this time I need to ask the Heavenly Dao for some benefits, hehe."
"Well, you decide what to do. I should head out now."
"Okay, host, wait for me."
Xiao Qi absorbed the energy from the bronze door, and as she repaired the cracks, it visibly shrank.
Zhang Qiling was puzzled by this situation.
Gu Wusi walked over, looking somewhat surprised.
"How come this gap is getting smaller by itself? If it's completely filled, you probably won't need to guard the gate anymore, right?"
Zhang Qiling didn't respond; this had never happened before when he was the goalkeeper.
The only variable this time is her.
Thinking about how she was able to enter the bronze gate smoothly and produce those things out of thin air, I always felt that this matter was also related to her.
Then he felt a little dazed. He had guarded this door so many times that it had become an unchangeable responsibility in his life.
He seemed to feel a sense of relief if this responsibility were gone.
