Chapter 405: The Fiancé Ran Away with the Most Beautiful Girl in the World (30)
Shu Shichu immediately felt very sympathetic towards them. Suddenly, she had another question: "Your inn is destroyed from time to time. Does your boss have the money to repair it?"
"The gangsters who took action will pay compensation." said the tall and dark guy.
"Are the people in the underworld so reasonable? I thought they would just wave goodbye and leave after the fight, without caring whether you suffered any losses or not." Shu Shichu said in surprise.
"Not all people in the martial arts world are reasonable. In fact, most of them don't take ordinary people like us seriously, and have no awareness of the need to compensate for damaging other people's things. However, a small number of people in the martial arts world still have this awareness. Most of them are disciples of large sects, and they are generous. One compensation is enough for us to rebuild the inn several times." The fair-skinned waiter added.
Shu Shichu suddenly realized and said, "It seems that we still have to rely on the conscience of those people in the underworld."
"Yes! We have to rely on their conscience. If they refuse to pay, we won't be able to defeat them. We can only swallow our anger and accept the loss."
Shu Shichu was talking to them while waiting for the boss's breakfast. Not long after, the fragrant mutton buns were served. Shu Shichu immediately swallowed his saliva. The cooking skills of the owner of this inn are still very good.
Just as she was enjoying her meal, Mu Changqing came back from outside with a few bags of snacks in his hands.
"Where have you been?" Shu Shichu swallowed the bun in his mouth and asked him.
"I went to get some information and buy you some food. I didn't expect you'd already eaten it." Mu Changqing said, putting the snacks in his hand on the table. "I thought the inn was almost destroyed and we couldn't make breakfast, but I didn't expect we could."
Shu Shichu smiled and didn't ask him what information he had found out. After all, this was the lobby of the inn and there were outsiders nearby, so she asked other questions: "Have Xiao Yihan and Le Wanrou left?"
Mu Changqing shook his head: "No, they went to the clinic to treat their wounds."
"Which of them was injured?" Shu Shichu asked curiously. Who was so unlucky?
"Everyone is injured, but except Ji Feibai, the others are only slightly injured and nothing serious. Ji Feibai was the most seriously injured, being stabbed in the abdomen, so they all went to the clinic to take care of him." Mu Changqing said in a calm tone.
Shu Shichu instantly felt a little sympathy for her ex-fiancé. He was so unlucky. Everyone else was only slightly injured, but he was seriously injured. It was so tragic!
"How could he be seriously injured? Is it because his martial arts skills are too weak that he can't even beat Le Wanrou?" Shu Shichu asked again.
Mu Changqing showed a meaningful smile: "He was injured so badly just to block the knife for Le Wanrou. This is the real hero saving the beauty."
Shu Shichu: ...
I suddenly didn't know what to say. I could only say that Ji Feibai is worthy of being the infatuated male supporting role, and it was normal for him to use his body to block the sword for the heroine.
"It seems they have to stay here for a few more days." Shu Shichu said.
"I've decided to go out to sea with them." Mu Changqing suddenly said this and looked at her seriously, "What about you? Do you want to go with me?"
"What are you going out to sea for?" Shu Shichu couldn't help but ask.
"We'll talk after you finish eating and return to your room." Mu Changqing did not answer directly. Shu Shichu immediately realized that the matter was very important and she had to be on guard against eavesdropping. So she quickly finished the remaining breakfast and took Mu Changqing upstairs.
"Xiao Yihan and his companions went out to sea to find an island called Liuyu Island. It is said that Liuyu Island hides a huge secret that can cause huge waves in the martial arts world. The Nitian Sect is hunting them down because of this secret. It is also said that whoever can unlock this secret can unify the martial arts world and even the world..." Mu Changqing said this to Shu Shichu very frankly.
Shu Shichu suddenly had a strange expression on her face. This rumor sounded very similar to the secret of the treasure map she got from Old Man Bai. Could it be that the treasure hidden in Liuyu Island was the treasure of the royal family of the previous dynasty? Could it be such a coincidence?
Shu Shichu had a lot of thoughts in his mind, but he didn't show it on his face. Instead, he said to Mu Changqing, "Does Xiao Yihan and the others want to go to Liuyu Island to unify the secret before the Nitian Cult does, and unify the martial arts world or the world?"
Mu Changqing said calmly: "I don't know, but they said it was to prevent the Anti-Heaven Cult from succeeding."
Shu Shichu burst out laughing: "Their statement is indeed standing on the moral high ground, which makes them seem particularly pure and innocent."
Mu Changqing couldn't help laughing. Who doesn't know that this is just a banner they use to cover up their shame? If they really want to stop the Against Heaven Sect, then why not just cut off the firewood and destroy the Against Heaven Sect directly? Why do they need to look for Liuyu Island? Don't say that they can't destroy the Against Heaven Sect. At the end of the world trajectory, didn't they succeed in destroying the Against Heaven Sect?
"Why did you agree to go with them to find Liuyu Island? Do you also want to unify the martial arts world and the world?" Shu Shichu suddenly asked with narrowed eyes.
Mu Changqing said calmly, "I don't have such ambitions, and I don't believe that any secret can unify the world after it is solved. The reason why I agreed to go with them is because they promised me too much, a lot of money, Xiao Yihan's Xiao Family Manor and Le Wanrou's Shunjian Villa... Why wouldn't I agree? And I am also somewhat interested in that secret."
After hearing what he said, Shu Shichu immediately understood him and nodded, "I see. Their offer is too high. If it were me, I might agree to it."
"Are you willing to take the risk with me? I can give you half of the reward they promised me." Mu Changqing tempted her, "Aren't you interested in the so-called secret that can unify the world after it is solved?"
Shu Shichu was really interested. Seeing his narrow and beautiful eyes looking at her expectantly, she immediately agreed: "Okay! I'd like to go with you!"
Mu Changqing immediately broke into a brilliant smile, exuding his charm unscrupulously, as if he was very happy to have deceived, no, successfully convinced Shu Shichu.
Shu Shichu was not a quiet guy to begin with, and the secret that Xiao Yihan and the others were talking about might be related to her treasure map, so why didn't she go? Mu Changqing's invitation was exactly what she wanted.
But... "Will Xiao Yihan and the others agree to let me go with them?" Shu Shichu asked. In their eyes, she was probably just a useless vase clinging to Mu Changqing's golden thigh? Would they be willing to let her, a "burden", go with them?
Mu Changqing said confidently: "They will agree."
Shu Shichu was no longer worried immediately. Since he said so, he would definitely be able to convince Xiao Yihan and the others.
