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
He Lulu was still arguing with De Ertai. Cheng Xiaoxiao didn't expect that the Hu merchants intended to start a circus team because of her.And did they intend to use her as their cash cow?When Cheng Xiaoxiao thought of the dirty little animals in the circus that were ill-treated, she wanted to spit at them.This time, Cheng Xiaoxiao had no time to think about Chu Yunshen. She secretly pricked up her ears and listened carefully to their conversation, but in her heart, she was thinking about how to sneak out of this place when the men were not keeping an eye on her.Although she was very angry, she had to be with them for the time being! At the very least, they should not sell her away today. Otherwise, how could she escape later?Cheng Xiaoxiao prayed silently in her heart, but she inadvertently found that her body was not as stiff as before, and she began to feel a little refreshed.It was a good
"Relax, it's just a normal reaction. I'll go and get her some antidote so that she can recover faster." De Ertai assured while letting go of the Persian cat's head."Hurry up then!" He Lulu urged matter-of-factly. Then, he muttered to himself, "Is the antidote enough? Should I prepare something else?""But if we give her the antidote now, we still need to drug her later, right? Isn't it a little troublesome?"De Ertai mouthed although he disagreed with He Lulu's method."Let her rest for the time being! After all, she has been performing for quite a while today." He Lulu knew what De Ertai was trying to tell him. He pondered for a moment before stating his opinion.Did they want to drug her again?No way! She must escape before they did it again!Cheng Xiaoxiao did not expect the Hu merchants to be so ruthless. She had just woken up, but they planned to drug her again! Recalling He Lulu
This wouldn't work. Despite its low volume, the sound was too shrill and deafening.Chu Yunshen and the others could not hear her, but it was so loud that it brought goosebumps all over Cheng Xiaoxiao's body. Even her dizziness eased a little.Since she was feeling better now, she would not knock on the door. It was quite embarrassing.Cheng Xiaoxiao grunted about her actions just now, and then she quietly retreated to the open space several meters away from the wall and stood still. Then, she ran and jumped onto the wall.The landing was perfect!At this time, Cheng Xiaoxiao was very proud of herself.However, her smugness did not hold on for very long. In the next second, she felt dizzy and then fell off the wall like a kite with a broken string.She was done for. This time, she would definitely fall miserably.At the last moment when she fell, Cheng Xiaoxiao was secretly
"C-C-Can you stop crying..."Chu Yunshen was so surprised by Cheng Xiaoxiao's tears that he almost bit his tongue. He frantically went forward to grab Cheng Xiaoxiao's clothes, trying to pull her up from the ground.However, Cheng Xiaoxiao wouldn't budge, and she didn't mean it. At this moment, Cheng Xiaoxiao was so confused and fuzzy that all she could think of was Chu Yunshen did not want her anymore, and she wanted to cry to her heart's content because of this. She couldn't be bothered with anything else.Chu Yunshen tried to pull Cheng Xiaoxiao up, but she waved her arms around and stopped him."You did it on purpose! Yes, you did!" She wailed.Befuddled, Chu Yunshen stared at Cheng Xiaoxiao, who was almost half lying on the ground, and felt his head aching. He changed another method and carried her up in his arms.This time, Cheng Xiaoxiao finally stopped resisting. She stopped crying and tried
