The stone slab collapsed and fell down at an angle, getting stuck on both sides of the wall and forming a narrow space, which saved the lives of the two men.
You Tianfu was cushioning underneath, and Wang Manxi was curled up in his arms. Although the stone slab was stuck in time, it still hit Wang Manxi's back when it collapsed. The huge force made her whole body tense, and she held her breath in her chest.
After the collapse stopped and everything settled, You Tianfu shook his head, shook off the rubble and dust on his head to the side, then lowered his head to check on Wang Manxi's condition.
The space formed by the boulder was very small, trapping the two of them in the gap. You Tianfu could only pull out one arm to move, and Wang Manxi's entire body was stuck, with only her head sticking out.
After struggling for a few times and finding he couldn't move, You Tianfu raised his hand to remove the gravel from Wang Manxi's head, then called softly: "Sister Xi, are you okay? Can you hear me?"
After a while, Wang Manxi reacted. She raised her head slightly and looked at You Tianfu. Before she could say anything, she felt a sweetness in her throat and then spat out a mouthful of blood.
As the blood was spit out, the meridians became unblocked, and Wang Manxi resumed breathing, but she was extremely weak. Her face was pale and her eyes were wandering. After taking a few deep breaths, she whispered back, "My... my face... is it still beautiful?"
You Tianfu nodded: "Beautiful, don't worry, your face is not hurt at all, you are still as beautiful as ever!"
Hearing this, Wang Manxi suddenly relaxed a little and smiled sweetly: "That's good. I don't want to die so ugly in front of the man I like..."
After she finished speaking, she slowly lowered her head and gently rested it on You Tianfu's chest. She listened to the sound of his heartbeat and slowly closed her eyes...
You Tianfu's heart tightened when he saw this. Just as he was about to continue calling out, he heard footsteps in the distance, followed by the voices of several younger brothers:
"It's been blown up like this, even a god would have a hard time surviving. What's the point of looking for it? The body has probably been torn to pieces!"
"Brother Sen asked us to look for the body, so we did. Foreigners' minds work like that. If he can't find the body, how can he report back to Mr. Fei?"
"I heard that the cars that came into our park a few days ago belonged to a warlord, and they seemed to be planning to take over Chinatown. It seems like life for us Chinese is going to be difficult in the future..."
"Whether or not it's easy to get along is something those scattered people outside should worry about. We have nothing to fear when we follow Mr. Fei. But I'm afraid none of these big guys in the city can escape..."
As the two were chatting, a third guy came up from behind and said, "Stop talking nonsense, both of you. Keep your eyes open and look carefully. Watch your step. I heard there's been a lot of duds with these detonators. If they didn't explode earlier and they do now, we'll be in big trouble!"
Hearing this, several people immediately became cautious, stopped gossiping, and started searching carefully with flashlights.
Hearing the sound coming closer and closer, although he was worried about Wang Manxi's situation, You Tianfu could only hold his breath and try not to make any noise to avoid being discovered again.
A group of younger brothers scattered around, and Lei Haozi also joined the search team.
The explosion was so powerful that the two-story house tilted and collapsed. The entire scene was in chaos with flames shooting up into the sky and ruins everywhere as far as the eye could see.
A large amount of debris was piled up everywhere, making it impossible to move it manually, and naturally, it was impossible to explore the interior. The young men in charge of the search simply walked around the outside a few times, looking through the cracks and holes with flashlights.
Lei Haozi searched around and unknowingly walked to the side of the shaft. The shaft cover had flown away to who knows where, and the wellhead had been completely deformed by the accumulation of dirt on the surface, leaving only a hole about half a meter wide.
It was the dead of night and pitch black. Lei Haozi's attention was focused on the ruins in front of him and he didn't notice that there was a deformed vertical shaft on the ground. As he was walking, he suddenly stepped on empty air and one of his legs stepped directly into the hole. He fell to the ground and got a mouthful of mud.
After a few seconds of pause, he struggled to pull his leg out, then limped and sat on a stone nearby to check his injury.
He rolled up his trouser legs and lifted up his socks, looking at the large piece of skin on his ankle that was rubbed off. Just as Lei Haozi was about to curse, he glanced sideways through a gap to the side and discovered a pair of eyes staring at him!
Lei Haozi was frightened at first, but he immediately calmed down, picked up the flashlight and scanned inside the gap, and You Tianfu's face was immediately revealed!
Seeing You Tianfu, Lei Haozi's eyes widened even wider than his own. He had never expected him to appear here. Without making a sound, he pretended to sit next to him, then leaned over to the gap and whispered, "Why the hell did you end up in the West City Foot Bath City? And you're hiding so deep! You damn well want to die!"
You Tianfu swallowed his dry saliva and raised his head to ask, "Let's not talk about me for now. What's going on, Master Lei? Wang Manxi and Phyllis have no grudges against each other. Why are you suddenly doing such a ruthless thing? Is something big really going to happen?"
Lei Haozi was silent for a few seconds, then lowered his voice even more: "It won't be long before Chinatown will become a warlord's base. Mr. Fei is cooperating with them to unify Chinatown. Wang Manxi, Xie Jiannan, Chen Dong, and you are all targets that will be eliminated soon!
My dear Tianfu, remember, if you can survive from these ruins, you must hurry and leave Chinatown as quickly as possible, whether you want to return to your country or go to other countries. No matter what, you must hurry!
Otherwise, when Mr. Fei finds you, even I can’t protect you!
Remember, remember!!!"
As he was speaking, his younger brother's voice came from a distance: "Master Lei, are you okay?"
Lei Haozi retracted his gaze, pulled a broken board to block the gap, and then stood up to meet it: "It's okay, I just stepped on empty air. There are only big pits here, there is nothing, let's go look over there..."
It was already extremely difficult to find people in the ruins, and the only gap was blocked by Lei Haozi with boards, making it even more impossible to find them. More than 20 brothers searched for nearly an hour, but ultimately could not find any trace of the two people.
Lei Haozi limped back and sat down beside him, muttering to himself, "The Foot Bath City has been bombed into such a mess. Even if there were people inside, they would definitely be dead. Maybe their bodies were blown to pieces... I'll keep looking for you. I can't find any more..."
Seeing this, Nathan had no choice but to give up and ordered his men to separate the people in the Foot Bath City into two groups, male and female, and send them to the North City Park one after another. The men were handed over to Lei Haozi to be taken to Phyllis for processing, while the women were taken away by himself and detained in a special place, waiting for his own entertainment later.
Lei Haozi didn't say anything and followed Nathan's arrangements. He only started to take action after Nathan took the girls away.
After escorting Jiang Hao and the other men into the north of the city, he handed a note to his trusted younger brother and whispered quietly, "Go to the East City Entertainment City right now and give this to Hao Zhengguang. You can't transfer this to someone else in the middle of the journey. You must hand it to him in person!"
