"Tingzhu, you can't leave your post. Do you expect the leader to take over your place to strike the gong and entertain the crowd?"
Mu Bai was the first to stop Tingzhu. Then, he shook his head. "I can't either. If I leave, who will smash the boulder?"
The men fell silent again. What Mu Bai said made sense. Their mission was to help Master solve his problems, but they couldn't leave their post now. What could they do?
"I'll go! But leader, the task of collecting money..."
Songtao looked at the others and spoke again while holding the jar of money in his hand awkwardly. He felt that it was inappropriate to pass it directly to Chu Yunshen.
"I was planning to do that."
Chu Yunshen took the initiative to take away the jar from Songtao, and then lowered his head to recall what Songtao had done earlier.
It was not that Chu Yunshen did not want to investigate the case on his own, but that he wa
The audience applauded rhythmically while shouting "the Persian cat is mighty." The slogan was like a magic power that opened a secret door.Among them, there was a man who clapped to command everyone to shout the slogan together while shouting "one, two, three."The person who shouted the slogan was none other than He Lulu, Cheng Xiaoxiao's number one fan.He Lulu wouldn't let go of such a good opportunity to cheer for the Persian cat. After he finished building up the momentum for the Persian cat, Gu Hunge would go up the stage again and ask for the big show. Everything was perfect.There was a genuine smile on his face, no different from the excitement of the people around him, but the viciousness and coldness in his eagle eyes reminded the Hu people around him at all times that he was dangerous.However, De Ertai, who was beside He Lulu, had been staring at the people around them, and the people did not dare
Cheng Xiaoxiao was already pissed that Chu Yunshen did not focus on watching her permanence at the beginning. Now, she was enraged when he disappeared without saying anything.Cheng Xiaoxiao was irritated by Chu Yunshen and his troupe. Meanwhile, she enjoyed being admired and cheered on by the audience. Therefore, she decided to accept Gu Hunge's proposal and perform with him.She wanted to retaliate them!It would be best if Chu Yunshen came back at this moment. He would be just in time to see her conclude her performance in perfection. At that time, she would shine like a superstar and Xiaowu and the others would be dejected.Just thinking about it like this, Cheng Xiaoxiao could imagine how wonderful the expression on Chu Yunshen's face would be at that time.She wanted to see if Chu Yunshen could maintain his composure and indifference by then.When she thought that Chu Yunshen might be jealous
De Ertai did not invent the Cosmos Sack, but he received it from an old man he saved a few years ago. The old man said that he used this bag and this method to earn a lot of money, and he gave the bag to De Ertai before he died.After De Ertai obtained the Cosmos Sack, he and He Lulu partnered up to swindle the people for years. It was not until one time when the animal in the bag called out in advance because they didn't drug it with sufficient dose that their trick was exposed on the spot.Since then, they had not used the Cosmos Sack, and they couldn't operate the circus troupe anymore. Because of this, they started another business venture.It was a rare opportunity for them to use the Cosmos Sack today!Looking at the hesitant Persian cat on the stage, De Ertai slowly put the surging memories behind his head and looked forward to the "wonderful" performance.Gu Hunge quietly moved his fingers, which were as
Xiaowu was tightly clutching Gu Hunge's collar and refused to let go. After hearing Gu Hunge's remark, Xiaowu hurriedly let go of Gu Hunge. Gu Hunge was so scared that he quickly took a few steps back, patted his chest, and breathed heavily."I don't believe it! Can't you fix it?"Xiaowu glared at Gu Hunge in great dismay, trying to find a flaw in his expression. However, he could see regret, sadness, and disappointment on his face, but there was no panic or complacency that Xiaowu had anticipated.The longer Xiaowu stared at Gu Hunge, the more relaxed Gu Hunge was. Xiaowu shook his head in disbelief, not wanting to accept Gu Hunge's ridiculous remark at all."No, it can't be. I don't believe it, I don't believe it..." Xiaowu muttered to himself."It's true. At this point, there is nothing I can do."Gu Hunge shrugged helplessly and even shot a resentful glare at Xiaowu as if he was grunting about X
"What did he want you to do?"Chu Yunshen rarely interrogated others directly like this, because it was always Xiaowu's job, and he only listened from the side. There were not many in the world who were important enough to be interrogated by Chu Yunshen. When he thought about the unknown that was lurking around him, he became even colder when he spoke."H-He asked us to lure you away when the stone crashing show was about to start and to take our time so that you won't go back so soon."It immediately dawned upon Chu Yunshen. They were trying to make him leave the base!Damn it! Wouldn't that little furry fellow be in danger?There was finally a trace of emotion on Chu Yunshen's originally calm face. The aura around his entire body was different from before. The viciousness in his dark eyes was apparent and dangerous. Chu Yunshen wanted to return to the great banyan tree to investigate the situation immediately,
Xiaowu and the rest quickly packed up their things, while Tingzhu apologized to the remaining audience.Seeing that the performance had ended, the Hu people left before Tingzhu finished speaking, leaving behind them only the chilly air and the ground full of nutshells and fruit skins.When Chu Yunshen and the others came to perform, the atmosphere was very relaxed and casual, but now, Xiaowu and the others were the opposite depressing. They packed their things quickly, while Chu Yunshen stood under the great banyan tree with his back to them.Even so, the men could feel the cold and frosty aura on Chu Yunshen. The atmosphere under the banyan tree was so depressing that no one dared to approach Chu Yunshen at this moment.In spite of that, this version of Chu Yunshen was normal and familiar for them, unlike the soft-spoken yet sarcastic Chu Yunshen earlier.Chu Yunshen involuntarily hung his hands behind his back
He Lulu held the Cosmos Sack with both hands as if he was holding a precious treasure. He held the bag with one hand and slowly untied the rope on the bag with the other.After a very long few minutes, He Lulu finally opened the Cosmos Sack completely.He Lulu wiped his hand, which was not very dirty, on his shirt before reaching into the bag and exploring.Gu Hunge didn't say anything when He Lulu took the Cosmos Bag aside to open it, but De Ertai followed him and seemed to be annoyed by his overbearing behavior."He Lulu, do you know how to open it? If you don't, I'll do it! Give it to me!"De Ertai was so anxious when he saw He Lulu stuff his hand in the bag without taking it out that he wanted to push He Lulu away and take the Persian cat out himself."I'll do it!"To De Ertai's surprise, He Lulu roared back furiously."This little fellow is our little cash cow. What if
"Oh, do you mean Prince Jing, the most handsome man in Chu?"De Ertai didn't want to make the relations so awkward between them. Now that Gu Hunge tried to divert their attention to amend the atmosphere, De Ertai continued the conversation matter-of-factly."Yes, that's him! Everyone in the market is talking about him. The beautiful county princess died in his residence. I heard that the prince has a weird fetish, and the county princess died after being tortured by him. That's why he quickly sent her away and quietly buried her."Gu Hunge loved to listen to the gossip that was circulating on the streets. Moreover, this was related to the royal family of Chu."Just stop. How can you believe such a thing?"He Lulu was not too far away from them although he hid in the corner with the Persian cat in his arms. Furthermore, he was adjusting his mood while observing the situation at De Ertai's side.Howev
