Chapter 137 Past Events
Wang Qiao didn't continue speaking, and Lu Youyou didn't ask any more questions.
She guessed that Wang Qiao must have found out about the good stuff in the lab through some channel, so she decided it was best not to ask him without thinking.
Suddenly, Wang Qiao sighed, his expression unusually dejected: "We can't go now. We're still in the treasure hunt game, so we can't use the scene teleportation scroll."
"It's alright, just wait until the treasure hunt game is over before you go. Don't worry, if you can't go, no one else can either. The treasure is still there, no one will try to take it from you."
"Mmm." Wang Qiao nodded, deep in thought.
Lu Youyou offered her a few words of comfort before returning to her own car.
As soon as I closed the car door, I received a friend request from Xiao Liu.
After Lu Youyou agreed, she immediately changed his contact name.
hum~
[Xiao Liu: Sister 66, don't you want to know how you got that teleportation scroll? Ask me, ask me!]
Are hardworking oxen and horses really that precious?
[Xiao Liu: It should be precious... Because of this, Jiang Chao and Shen Taiyang fought many battles with other gangs.]
[Workaholics: Then why are you in my hands?]
[Xiao Liu: This isn't Jiang Chao's. I just said I had the same thing as him, proving the scroll is valuable. This is a reward the Yellow Sand Monster gave me.]
[Xiao Liu: I'd heard people on the public chat say before that if you regularly feed the Sand Monster delicious food, you'll receive gifts from it. I've been feeding it for almost half a month, and I actually received one!]
[Workaholics: Okay...]
[Xiao Liu: Oh, right, Sister 66, I've been in frequent contact with Shen Taiyang, so I basically know everything he's done. Do you have any questions for me? I'll offer my loyalty.]
Lu Youyou looked at the last sentence he sent and found it very funny.
If you didn't know better, you'd think you were reading a novel. Offering his loyalty doesn't sound like something a normal person would say; it's so childish.
But she did have a question she wanted to ask.
[Workaholic Ox and Horse: Why is Shen Taiyang targeting me, both openly and subtly?]
[Xiao Liu: Shen Taiyang doesn't need a reason to target people; he's simply evil. Besides you, everyone else with power is a thorn in Shen Taiyang's side.]
[Xiao Liu: Don't you usually check the public chat? Xiao Lihua, Hou Tou Gu, and others were doing similar business to Shen Taiyang, and then their avatars mysteriously went black. It was Shen Taiyang who sent people to kill them. You were the hardest one to kill.]
[Xiao Liu: Shen Taiyang will send someone to relay to whoever people like or have a good opinion of on the public chat, with the aim of making everyone recognize him and thus monopolizing resources.]
[Workaholics: ...]
She thought she checked the public chat very frequently, opening it whenever she had a spare moment.
She hasn't even heard of Little Pear Blossom and Monkey Head Mushroom yet, so it seems she knows nothing about the gossip on the public screen.
[Xiao Liu: By the way, when he returned the treasure chest order, did you guys really think he'd been kidnapped by Wang Laojiu? Actually, he was a member of the Blood Shadow Gang from the beginning.]
[Xiao Liu: Even the gang leader at the time, Wang Laojiu, cooperated with him in this charade, all to evoke sympathy in people and make him seem more approachable, thus facilitating sales.]
Lu Youyou: ……
Shen Taiyang is very smart, but he doesn't use his intelligence for the right things.
Or…
Even if Shen Taiyang doesn't follow the right path, as long as they keep to themselves and don't interfere with each other, she and Wang Qiao won't kill him.
The people she killed were all those who had provoked her.
Lu Youyou listened to Xiao Liu talk about the Blood Shadow Gang and Shen Taiyang for a while, then checked her phone again; it was already 7 p.m.
It's time to serve Little Black some rice.
As for her, she skipped dinner because she ate too much barbecue at noon and hadn't digested it yet.
As soon as I opened the bag of dog food, Xiao Hei came running over excitedly.
"Master, please give me a little less, I'm only a little hungry."
Lu Youyou scooped up half a ladle of dog food and asked, "Can you eat all of this?"
Xiao Hei shook his head: "I can't eat."
Lu Youyou sprinkled another half of it down, and only then was Xiao Hei satisfied.
After Xiao Hei finished eating its dog food, Lu Youyou took its food bowl to the folding bathroom to clean it.
When I came out, I saw Da Rui thrashing about in the water and sighed.
Da Rui has been thrashing around ever since she went to sleep, and he hasn't managed to burn off his energy yet.
Da Rui wasn't tired; she looked exhausted.
"Da Rui, wait a little longer. The Red-Eyed Monster will appear in less than three hours. You can go out and chase it then."
"it is good--"
Da Rui's clear voice was filled with exhaustion, and Lu Youyou felt sorry for him, but there was no solution to this problem.
She moved a stool and sat next to the turtle tank, chatting with Da Rui to pass the time.
Lu Youyou had never been so excited to see the red-eyed monster.
Finally, it was ten o'clock, and it got dark.
Lu Youyou turned on the light and looked out the window.
Seeing those two big, red eyes, she felt a strange sense of relief.
"Woo——"
"Wang Wang Wang!"
Xiao Hei's bark drowned out the red-eyed monster's whistle, and it instinctively tried to chase after it, but Lu Youyou caught it.
"Xiao Hei, wait a moment, Da Rui, you go."
Da Rui climbed down the small stairs from the turtle tank to the outside, quickly scratching the ground with its limbs.
Finding the chase too slow, it simply curled itself into a ball and rolled forward like a sphere during the pursuit.
"boom!"
The turtle shell smashed into the red-eyed monster, leaving a bump with each hit.
Da Rui didn't return until late at night, panting heavily.
Seeing Lu Youyou, he felt at ease and closed his eyes to sleep, without even returning to the turtle tank.
Lu Youyou returned Da Rui to the turtle tank, opened the pet panel, and found that the "excited" section had changed to "fatigued," which finally put her at ease.
After a day and a night of forced mental exertion, Da Rui can finally get a good night's sleep.
"Master, if the red-eyed monster comes again, can I chase after it?" Little Black asked eagerly.
"Of course you can. Wake me up when you're sleepy and we'll switch shifts. Oh, and I'll put some earplugs in you so you won't hear the red-eyed monster's whistles."
Lu Youyou took out rubber earplugs, helped Xiao Hei put them on, and then lay down on the bed.
Because Xiao Hei's keen senses are not limited to hearing, but also include smell and sight, Lu Youyou is not worried that it will not be able to find the red-eyed monster.
As it turned out, Lu Youyou's idea was correct.
Xiao Hei couldn't hear the Red-Eyed Monster's whistle, but it could spot the Red-Eyed Monster immediately, get out of the car, and drive it away.
They stayed up until 3 a.m., when Xiao Hei couldn't stay awake any longer and barked a few times to wake Lu Youyou.
After waking up, Lu Youyou went to the folding bathroom to wash her face before she felt more awake.
The red-eyed monster, whether frightened by Da Rui and Xiao Hei or something else, had disappeared from the outside.
Lu Youyou was afraid that she would fall asleep if she stayed still, so she opened the public chat to try and wake herself up.
Around 3 a.m., a time when people should be sleeping, the public chat was unusually active.
Most people were too busy staring at the red-eyed monster to type, so they sent voice messages instead.
A fantasist who loves watching TV dramas: "Can this red-eyed monster be killed? How strong is it? Can anyone tell me? I'm so sleepy right now."
A kind-hearted person who always tells the truth: "You can kill it, but it will revive. Every time it revives, its shell becomes harder. I killed it twice, but I dared not kill it again. I was afraid that if I couldn't kill it, it would attack me."
A pretty girl who loves reading novels: "I'm fed up. If this keeps up, no one will sleep anymore, and we'll all be living a life with our days and nights reversed."
A money-loving businessman: "Sell coffee, coffee that will keep you energized."
