Chapter 131 Bad News

"The men that matchmaker Wang introduced you to weren't very good. She can make even the dead come back to life when she arranges marriages. A face full of pockmarks becomes a successful businessman in her mouth..."

The people around them were initially listening with great interest, occasionally chiming in with their own comments.

The entire nation mourns!

The laughter and chatter that had been filling the air suddenly turned deathly silent. Even the playful children sensed something was wrong and quieted down.

"Gu...Gu...Gu, what did they say on the radio? Who passed away?"

The old man's pipe fell to the ground with a thud, but he didn't care. His large hands, covered with age spots, trembled and seemed powerless for a long time.

The others also looked on incredulously; the once noisy clinic was now eerily quiet.

No one answered. The crowd, who hadn't heard clearly due to the noise, now heard the heavy news on the radio that caused national grief.

The Second Emperor has passed away, and the entire nation mourns his passing.

The deathly silence was suddenly broken by a wail. The old man collapsed to the ground, covering his face and wailing like a child.

Except for the children who are too young to understand, everyone else, regardless of gender, had tears streaming down their faces and their eyes were filled with grief.

Many elderly people cried until they fainted. The cries of adults, children, men, women, the old and the young could be heard from afar, and the entire health center was in complete chaos.

Duan Jianhua sat with several cadres from the Red Flag Brigade, smoking one cigarette after another until his hands trembled so much that he couldn't even light the firewood, and he suddenly broke down emotionally.

Several tall, burly men wept silently, their dark faces filled with grief. Even their low growls, punctuated by bites that drew blood, could not stop the overflowing sobs.

Especially Duan Jianhua, who had followed them, carried a gun, fought in battles, and shared life and death with them.

Now that life has just started to get better and people are finally able to eat their fill and stay warm, half of the sky in his heart has suddenly collapsed. How can he accept this?

Tonight, the entire China region is engulfed in cries of grief and sorrow.

People were crying uncontrollably everywhere on the streets; their world had collapsed tonight.

[Master, a meteor shower is falling hundreds of kilometers away!]

Gu Zuozuo jumped up immediately, her face serious.

Are you sure? How much time do we have left?

The robot she bought with over two million points walked out of the space on its own.

A cute little girl, only the height of a ten-year-old, but her abilities are truly extraordinary.

A screen of light appeared in front of her, and the beautiful woman's hand touched a certain spot in the atmosphere.

Yes, the robot will be called Big Beauty.

[Master, you have fourteen hours to prepare.]

Gu Zuozuo gritted her teeth. What was she supposed to prepare? No matter how capable she was, could she stop a meteor shower?

According to system monitoring, Yunnan Province will experience two earthquakes within the next fifteen days.

As she spoke, detailed information appeared on the screen, and the beautiful woman pointed it out to her one by one.

Gu Zuozuo sighed. Why do all sorts of natural and man-made disasters seem to be causing trouble this year?

Thinking of this, she grabbed the beautiful woman and disappeared from the spot.

The atmosphere in the village has been somber these past few days, with people occasionally bursting into tears. She suddenly disappeared for a day, so it's unlikely anyone would notice.

Wang Erzhu was so busy that he didn't have time to grieve.

After Number Two left, those who had quieted down started moving around again.

These past few days, they've been working with Xie Jinyu, catching rats day and night, and they've been losing clumps of hair from it.

Gu Zuozuo suddenly appeared in front of him at this moment, startling him.

"How come you always appear without anyone noticing?"

Wang Erzhu put down the coarse flour pancake he had just taken a few bites of, and almost choked to death.

Gu Zuozuo remained silent, but still reached out and handed him a bottle of diluted spiritual spring water.

"I've brought you something."

As he spoke, he called out the beautiful woman to show her the proper way.

Wang Erzhu was truly shocked and took several steps back.

"Where did you kidnap this doll from?"

They really think this place is a shelter? That Si Jue is still locked up here.

That guy was also a strange character; he would often disappear from the secret cell. Just when they almost thought he had escaped, he would obediently return to the cell and squat there. They couldn't chase him away no matter what they did, and he would insist that whoever had locked him up should take him away.

Hmph, do they really think they can't understand what he means?

"I didn't kidnap her. She's my fellow disciple, and her special ability is to predict disasters."

"Junior sister? Prophecy? What sect do you belong to?"
