Chapter 160: Crazy Dragon Society
This kind of intermittent madness happens every now and then in the sewers. Wang Shijin and his friends are no longer surprised by it.
The sewer is a small and enclosed space. If you want to have a good sleep, as soon as you close your eyes, you will hear snoring and grinding of teeth from all directions, as well as the sound of people walking back and forth to go to the toilet.
Long-term poor sleep quality and staying in the dark sewers will gradually turn a normal person into a violent and out-of-control madman after staying in the sewers for a long time.
Let's not talk about others, let's talk about himself. Since moving to the sewer, he has had three fights with his two next-door neighbors because of the location issue.
Even a gentle and good-tempered man like Sun Haiyun often steals things when others pass by his house.
Wang Shijin felt that if they continued to live in the sewer, everyone would have psychological problems.
But this is an unsolvable problem.
If they couldn't live in the sewers, they could only live on the ground. But the coldness on the ground was unbearable for ordinary people, unless they had a kang and a lot of fuel like Xia Xiaoman.
Wang Shijin went home once and found that no one was at home to light a fire. The walls of the house were covered with frost and the corridor was also full of frost and ice. It was as if he had entered an ice cave, and it was so cold that it made him tremble from the bottom of his heart.
Living in the sewers may cause psychological problems, but at least he is still alive. If he goes home, he will be frozen into a natural ice sculpture in one night.
Choosing the lesser of two evils, Wang Shijin could only grit his teeth and continue living in the sewer.
…
Since the snowstorm, the temperature has remained around minus fifty degrees Celsius. There is an occasional snowfall, but it is not heavy and will end in a few hours.
After Xia Xiaoman built the wall with ice bricks, he would still stay outside for a while every day to adapt to the cold weather outside.
After sweeping the snow in the yard and just as he was about to take out his sword to practice his sword skills, a figure suddenly ran in.
Xia Xiaoman subconsciously pulled out the axe, "Stop! Who are you?"
The man heard the scolding, stood still, pulled down the scarf around his neck, revealing a fair face, "I am the owner of Villa No. 16, my parents have a cold, do you have any medicine, give me some."
Xia Xiaoman recognized this man. The man in front of him was indeed the one who lived in Villa No. 16. Wang Shijin called him Young Master in private.
The word "young master" was not meant as a compliment, but rather as a mockery of the fact that he was ignorant of the sufferings of the world, and felt that he was superior to others because he lived in a villa area. He looked down on others every day and never looked anyone in the eye.
Except for going out to fetch water, he basically stays at home. He neither helps the community fight against foreign enemies nor goes out to earn supplies. He is very precious.
This young master was able to survive the natural disaster thanks to his parents’ support.
The young master was not polite at all and asked for medicine. Xia Xiaoman said expressionlessly, "One pill for fever reduction, three catties of rice."
"Three pounds of rice! Are you trying to rob me?" The young master's eyes widened.
Xia Xiaoman said angrily: "If you don't have money, don't act like a big shot here, get out!"
The young master's face turned red with anger, "Do you know who I am? Believe it or not, I will kick you out of the community!"
Xia Xiaoman looked him up and down, then silently raised the axe, "Do you believe that I can split your head in half with one axe?"
Young Master: “…”
"A good man doesn't fight with a woman. I'll let you go this time!" He said this to save his dignity, turned around and ran faster than a rabbit.
Xia Xiaoman rolled his eyes, put away the axe, and took out a big knife to practice swordsmanship.
While practicing, he heard footsteps behind him. Xia Xiaoman thought it was the young master again, so he turned around and waved his knife impatiently, "I told you to get out of here. Don't you understand what I'm saying?"
"Ahhh!! Sister Xiaoman, it's me, it's me!" When Xiao Zheyu saw the big knife was about to hit him, he immediately screamed and backed away.
Xia Xiaoman was stunned when she heard the familiar voice, "Xiao Zeyu? Where did you come from?"
As soon as the voice fell, the person standing next to Xiao Zeyu took off his mask and said, "Xiaoman, long time no see!"
"Sister Yu'e, why are you all here?" Xia Xiaoman looked surprised.
Li Yu'e smiled and said, "It's a long story. I want to cooperate with you on a business. I wonder if you are free."
Wang Shijin, who brought people here, heard this and knew that they had something to say and it was not convenient for him, an outsider, to be present, so he said hello to Xia Xiaoman and left alone.
Xia Xiaoman led Li Yu'e and Xiao Zeyu into the house. "How did you get here? Did you drive or walk?"
Li Yu'e said, "I came through the sewer and it took me almost a day to find the right way."
The sewers are complicated and you can easily go to the wrong place if you are not careful. It was their first time to Shuiyue Bay and they were not familiar with the route. They took a lot of detours before they found Shuiyue Bay.
"Xiao Man, we came here this time to cooperate with you to get some supplies back. Are you free recently?"
Xia Xiaoman didn't rush to answer, but asked: "What supplies are they? Where can I get them?"
Li Yu'e glanced at Xiao Zeyu next to her and said with a smile: "Some time ago, Xiaoyu went out and was kidnapped..."
Before she finished speaking, Xiao Zeyu interrupted her hurriedly, "Sister, there's no need to talk about such embarrassing things!"
"Tsk, what's there to be ashamed of? We are all family, Xiaoman won't laugh at you." Li Yu'e continued: "Xiaoyu went out to look for supplies some time ago and was kidnapped and taken to the Dijin Hotel..."
Dijin Hotel is a relatively famous hotel in Fucheng. The reason for its fame is not because of its size or its good location, but because of its appearance and price.
The Dijin Hotel is a hotel built in European style, and its appearance is similar to a castle in a fairy tale. The builders tried their best to restore the details of the castle, and both the interior and the exterior are very exquisite and pleasing to the eye.
Of course, the most beautiful thing is its price. The price of one night's stay is equivalent to an ordinary person's annual salary. Those who can live there are all famous dignitaries.
The builders spent a lot of effort to build this castle, which is as strong as a city wall. So even after being flooded for several months, it is still very solid.
This luxurious hotel provided services to dignitaries before the natural disaster, but after the disaster, it was occupied by a group of people called the Crazy Dragon Society.
"The Crazy Dragons act in a low profile, but every time they make a move, they are able to snatch a large amount of supplies. It's as if they know in advance where the supplies are, and they will deploy everything in a very short time and snatch the supplies."
Li Yu'e continued, "There are rumors that the Crazy Dragon Society is a pawn used by a certain high-ranking official or some high-ranking officials to seek personal gain..."
"The Imperial Hotel is nominally the headquarters of the Crazy Dragon Society, but in reality it is a leisure club for some of the high-ranking members. The members of the Crazy Dragon Society hold parties every Saturday, and those high-ranking members will secretly go to the Imperial Hotel to party."
"Before every party, the people from the Crazy Dragon Society would capture some boys and girls for the high-ranking officials to train and enjoy..."
"Training?" Xia Xiaoman looked at Xiao Zeyu.
When Xiao Zheyu saw her meaningful look, he immediately got angry and covered his chest and said, "Why are you looking at me? I'm still innocent!"
Li Yu'e on the side tried to hold back her laughter and explained, "Xiao Yu was lucky. He escaped secretly before he was disciplined."
