"No wonder, I clearly asked Ziv to guard outside the door, it turned out that you tricked him away..." Su Xiaoniu suddenly realized.
"Yes, it was he who brought your body out. When he found out you were dead, he was in a terrible mood and refused to speak to anyone, which made me even more suspicious of your relationship. But somehow, after returning to China, he found a place to cremate your body, and in front of us..." Gloria seemed a little confused.
I also learned from this that it was no wonder that the madman in black felt so guilty towards Su Xiaoniu. Even when he met Su Xiaoniu's phantom in the Ghost Gate Bagua Escape, the madman in black couldn't bring himself to kill her and was almost killed by the phantom. It turned out that it was because of his "negligence of duty" that Gloria took advantage of the opportunity and killed Su Xiaoniu, so he felt guilty towards Su Xiaoniu.
However, Su Xiaoniu smiled faintly and said, "That's because after my soul left my body, I told him, without your knowledge, that you had killed me. You also pulled out two of my hairs and brought them back to perform the "Nine Yins" ritual, making it impossible for me to be resurrected. You then asked him to return to China and cremate my body in front of you. Didn't he tell you at the time that this was how the Ghost Alliance members act after death?"
Gloria nodded repeatedly: "He did say that."
Su Xiaoniu laughed and said, "Actually, I asked him to say that to you, so that you would believe that I was completely dead and that my soul had been taken to the underworld by the soul-catcher. That way, you would let down your guard against me. But he secretly collected my ashes and sent them back to my hometown by express delivery. It's true that I can't be resurrected, but I can't be reborn either. If I go to the underworld, I will be directly sent to hell. I found a way to escape from the underworld and return to the world of the living. Then I wanted to use my ashes to hold a funeral, avoiding the eyes of the ghosts and gods, so that I could be reborn without going to hell... However, this damn Feifei, who asked him to send a express delivery, actually scattered my ashes, which prevented me from being reborn. I'm still very angry when I think about it now!"
I smiled awkwardly and said, "Let's not talk about the past, okay?"
"Hmph! If you hadn't scattered my ashes at that time, I would have been reincarnated into a good family and lived a happy life." Su Xiaoniu glared at me angrily.
"Ah? Then I will be a loser for the rest of my life?" Now I am actually glad that I scattered her ashes. Was I a bit bad?
"What does it have to do with me! Don't you still have Ning Xue? She's rich and beautiful. Once you marry into her family, your Diaosi Road will be a successful counterattack. Isn't it better?" Su Xiaoniu said with interest.
Why do I feel like this conversation is going a bit off track?
Just when I didn't know how to respond, I heard Xiao Bingbing's scream from inside the cabin. Ning Xue and Xiao Bingbing quickly ran up. I asked them what happened, and Xiao Bingbing pointed downstairs and said, "Two bad guys stole the fish we just cooked!"
Two big bad guys?
We looked down and saw the two burly men rushing up, their ferocious looks enough to scare a cow to death. They walked up to Gloria with handfuls of freshly cooked fish in their hands.
Gloria pointed at Ning Xue and Xiao Bingbing and scolded them, "Don, Guy, you two...this belongs to someone else, why are you trying to steal it? Return it to them and apologize."
Don and Guy must have felt like they were screwed. Gloria had changed so much, hadn't they? But they didn't dare disobey her. So they handed the fish they had just snatched to Ning Xue and Xiao Bingbing, saying, "Sorry!"
Xiao Bingbing took the fish, hid aside and started eating. She was already very hungry.
Ning Xue came up to me, holding the fish, and asked what had happened to us, especially Gloria. I told her everything that had just happened, and Ning Xue finally realized what had happened.
"Don't steal their food. Go fishing and cook it for me. Hurry up! I'm starving!" Gloria urged.
Don and Guy scratched their heads: "How can we fish without bait?"
"How did they catch any fish when they didn't have any bait?" Gloria said angrily, "You have half an hour to get a cooked fish in front of me. Go!"
Don and Guy were blasted and went fishing with their fishing rods. However, they didn't even put in any bait and just stuck the empty hooks into the river...
I was watching and finding it funny. Do you think you are Jiang Taigong?
Sure enough, after fishing for over twenty minutes, there was still no sign of fish. Gloria, already starving, squatted on the ground, urging and scolding Don and Guy, but Don and Guy simply couldn't catch anything. Seeing this, Ning Xue gave Gloria the cooked fish she was holding.
"Wow! It smells so good... But, don't you want to eat it?" Gloria squatted on the ground, probably not even having the strength to get up.
I shook my head: "We already ate."
Ning Xue also smiled and said, "Eat it when you're hungry, while it's still warm. It won't taste good if it gets cold."
"Thank you!" Gloria quickly took it and started eating it voraciously.
Don and Guy were devastated because they had been fishing for almost an hour and still hadn't caught anything. Gloria was almost about to scold them to death. Finally, they borrowed some leftover fish bones from Xiao Bingbing and Gloria and used them as bait, which finally allowed them to catch a few small fish.
After dinner, it was already dark.
After taking a closer look at the sky, I felt a surge of unease. We were now in the Yellow River basin, and we didn't even know where we were. It was like drifting in a "desert in the middle of the ocean." This wasn't going to work. With more and more people on board, there was definitely not enough food, not to mention fuel and firewood.
