Chapter 355: Special Importance
Old Mrs. Wu also knew that the old man intended to leave this rural residential land to Wu Xiaoguang as a last resort, and she did not intend to fight with her nephew for this, so she did not seem to want to fight for the rent of the cellar.
The old lady's generosity only made Wu Xiaoguang seem more petty.
"Aunt, you really don't want it at all? Since you said so, don't regret it!" Wu Xiaoguang couldn't wait to make this matter come true in front of everyone.
Director Ouyang Ouyang also brought Song Zhibai to pay his respects. Seeing that the things he had been waiting for had finally taken a turn for the better, even though it was at someone else's funeral, Ouyang Ouyang couldn't wait to have the lease contract delivered and finalized the matter that day.
Director Ouyang Ouyang did offer a high price. He actually offered a sky-high rent of two hundred thousand yuan a month for a cellar in a country house. However, what made Wu Xiaoguang regretful was that Director Ouyang only rented the room for one month.
One month is enough time to complete the filming of the relevant scenes in the movie.
It was because Xu Youyou felt that Wu Xiaoguang was not a good person, and she was afraid that when the filming started, this guy would find another excuse to ask for money.
"Don't worry, boss. I heard you say who Wu Xiaoguang is. The contract was reviewed by our company's lawyer Wu. All the terms have been listed to ensure that this guy can't do anything bad." Director Ouyang Ouyang gave Xu Youyou a reassurance.
But what Xu Youyou didn't expect was that Wu Xiaoguang disappeared after taking the money. The crew finished filming all the scenes in the cellar and Wu Xiaoguang was never seen again.
Xu Youyou didn't think much about the news. She just thought that the boy had gone somewhere to gamble again. Her mission was completed, and after staying in Hunan Province for so many days, it was time to return to Shanghai.
In a cave deep in the mountains and forests of western Hunan, Wu Xiaoguang was tied up and hung high.
"Brother, spare my life! I can return the money to you, please let me go! I am willing to give you any amount of money, my aunt has money! I will ask her for the money! Brother, just give me the phone number!"
Wu Xiaoguang pleaded loudly, but the man who held him captive showed no sign of emotion when he heard his words.
This place is deep in the mountains and forests, and it takes at least an hour to walk to the nearest village. It can be said that he is crying out to heaven and earth for help, but no one will respond. No matter how loud Wu Xiaoguang shouts, only the sounds of birds in the forest can give him some response.
Before he could continue shouting, a scream suddenly came from deep in the cave.
What scared Wu Xiaoguang was that the scream came from not just one person, but from at least three people, both men and women.
"Brother, what are you doing in there?" Wu Xiaoguang asked curiously.
The black-clad man who was in charge of guarding him had a long scar on his right cheek. He had been ignoring Wu Xiaoguang, but when he heard this, he suddenly laughed and said, "What else can he do? Killing people, of course."
Wu Xiaoguang's face turned pale when he heard this.
Half a minute later, a foul smell suddenly came from the air, and drops of water dripped from the hanging trouser legs of Wu Xiaoguang to the ground.
The guard looked at him with disdain and said, "I thought you were a very courageous kid, but I didn't expect you to be so scared after just a few moves. If you are so timid, why do you want to offend our Lord Dragon King?"
Wu Xiaoguang regretted so much at this moment, he had no idea that he was just greedy once and he would have to pay for it with his life.
"Brother, brother, I really regret it. Please give me a chance... I will work for Lord Dragon King in the future. Please don't take my life..." Wu Xiaoguang begged repeatedly.
The guard ignored him.
Wu Xiaoguang tried frantically to save himself: "What's the point of you wanting my life? I am willing to work for you for free! Not only for free, if Lord Dragon King needs it, I am willing to give away all my wealth! I have money, and my aunt has money too!"
The guard seemed to be persuaded by his words. He stroked his chin and smiled playfully: "What you said does make some sense, but you are wrong about one thing. The lives of the people are in the hands of Lord Dragon King. They are very useful."
When Wu Xiaoguang heard this, he didn't understand it at first. After a moment, he was so scared that his whole body started shaking again.
The guard was full of disgust: "You are so scared about such a small thing, it's really boring!"
From deep in the cave, a man's miserable questioning voice came: "My Gu family has been offering you sacrifices for thirty years, giving you whatever you want without any slackness. Why do you treat us like this?"
The Red Dragon King smiled and said, "Your Gu family has provided for me, and I have also given you thirty years of wealth and honor. Isn't that enough? Since you said you can take whatever you want, and now I need you, do you still want to hide?"
"Don't you want to deal with Xu Youyou the most? I will use her blood relatives to give her the most severe blow. Isn't this considered as repaying you?"
When Father Gu heard this, he was so angry that his eyes turned red. Deep in the dark cave, he tried desperately to break free from the restraints on his body, but he had no way to do anything. He could only watch his flesh and blood gradually drip onto the evil altar below him.
On this stone altar, there are three black skulls connected together. Three members of the Gu family are sitting on them. Blood is dripping from their bodies and sinking into the skull case on the altar.
Mother Gu was the weakest. At this moment, she was completely limp and could not make any sound.
Gu Fengchuan's face turned pale. He didn't even bother to question the Red Dragon King, but stared at his father: "Dad asked Mom who her favorite child was? Was it because you expected that coming here would turn out like this? Dad wanted to use my life to protect the Gu family's wealth and prosperity?"
Father Gu had little strength to begin with, and when he heard this, he was so angry that he almost jumped up: "How could I know that I was coming here to be sacrificed! If I had known earlier, I would rather not have the Gu family's century-old wealth!"
The Red Dragon King was too lazy to listen to their gossip. Instead, he clasped his hands together and kept chanting some terrifying spells.
At the same time, Xu Youyou in the hotel watched Xu Fang help her pack her luggage, and she focused all her attention on the wooden box in front of her.
These days, she has been helping out at the Wu family. Even though she was extremely curious, she resisted the urge to open the box and kept the treasure in the safe she carried with her.
The system has indicated that the task has been completed, but the system has not yet refreshed the task reward.
"Tongbao, you don't give me a reward because I haven't opened the box?" Xu Youyou asked.
The system's answer was somewhat vague: [Just take it as it is. ]
Xu Youyou has been with the system for so long, but this is the first time she has seen it speak so unclearly.
"What kind of treasure is in this box? I feel like you value it very much." Xu Youyou said.
