Chapter 177 Collapse



Lu Yunxi sat on the chair and suddenly sighed.

"Miss Lu, is there something bothering you?" The boss chuckled and immediately fanned her with a flattering smile. "Whatever the problem is, just leave it to me."

Lu Yunxi glanced at him and didn't think this guy could help him.

Long Aotian sent her a message.

Because they had a contract, Long Aotian could communicate with her directly in his mind if he had any questions. So she let Long Aotian rest at Huawang's place.

But a few days ago, it sent a message saying that Kao's condition seemed a little bad. He was sleeping more and more and could no longer stay awake.

In order to ensure its survival, it was also sleeping, and occasionally woke up to report its safety to her.

Lu Yunxi became more and more anxious, wishing he could break through to the Grandmaster level today, succeed in cultivating immortality tomorrow, and quickly restore the world to its original state.

But when she thought about how the more anxious she was, the less her experience bar grew, she could only try to calm herself down.

"I don't have any worries, I just suddenly want to sigh." She smiled and sat back.

The big boss gritted his teeth secretly, feeling like he had been tricked.

He suddenly recalled the words of the third in command.

"Brother, that woman is simply a monster. There's no way we can defeat her. We can only turn to her and make her happy until she's willing to leave... I know it's hard, but we're no match for her. If we don't listen to her, we might even lose our lives one day without even knowing how!"

Thinking of what the third brother said about trying to appease the two women, he forced a smile and went to take a look at the other woman.

Like the woman just now, this woman also suddenly sighed.

The boss suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart. Could it be that this woman also suddenly wanted to sigh?

"Miss Zhou, why are you sighing?" He asked with a smile, his eyes flashing.

Zhou Yu looked at the ants marching across the ground in rows, feeling a little worried: "Ants moving and snakes crossing the road, there will be heavy rain tomorrow."

"?" The boss looked confused.

"Haven't you heard the old saying?" Zhou Yu took a deep breath. "I'm worried it's going to rain heavily in the next few days. Do you want to prepare?"

"Preparing for what?" The eldest boss was even more confused. "The second son has gone to sort out the goods. If the house there is repaired, there is no need to worry about the goods being damaged."

"...There are so many people living in thatched huts. If we don't repair them, what if they leak?!" Zhou Yu twitched his eyes.

"Don't worry, it won't leak. We have lived here for so many years, and it's still fine, right?" The boss couldn't help laughing.

Zhou Yu looked at his confident face and nodded with some reassurance.

However, in the evening, Zhou Yu and Lu Yunxi had just taken a shower and had not yet gone to bed.

There was a loud bang outside and heavy rain poured down.

"ah--"

Zhou Yu was frightened when he saw the tiles suddenly falling at his feet.

"Don't be afraid, this house is still stable. At most it will leak a little." Lu Yunxi smiled calmly.

"But I just asked the knockoff boss today, and he said it wouldn't leak," Zhou Yu said angrily, "Is he deliberately lying to me?!"

"Of course he wouldn't lie to you, but they themselves don't know how to repair the house. You're asking the wrong people!" Lu Yunxi shook her head. "They probably don't even know that the house on this hill has been in disrepair for so long that it's almost unable to withstand the pressure."

Lu Yunxi stood by the window, listening to the sound of the house collapsing in the rain, with a complicated expression.

Zhou Yu didn't have the same ability as her, and couldn't see anything through the rain at all.

She quickly found a slightly larger basin and placed it where the rain was leaking to wait for the water to drain.

A night passed.

The sky after being washed by rain is light blue and vast, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.

While Lu Yunxi was still lazily looking at the scenery outside, Zhou Yu was so frightened that she screamed.

"What's wrong?"

"Their...their houses have all collapsed!" Zhou Yu looked at the scene outside, his pupils shaking wildly. "It's...too horrible! I wonder if they're still alive?!"

As she spoke, she looked worried, shook her head vigorously, and rushed out to check the situation outside.

Lu Yunxi was very calm.

She had seen the houses here before, so she knew very well that the bandits would definitely survive and would only suffer minor injuries at most.

And... they don't necessarily need them to save them.

Things turned out just as she expected.

As the sun grew brighter, the people trapped in the house were gradually rescued, but some people could not be found.

The people living in the thatched huts were not seriously injured, but the houses further up the mountain were no longer thatched huts. They were all made of mud and tiles, and if the tiles fell, they would definitely injure people.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yu anxiously took his men to start digging at the collapsed part of the house.

"Is anyone there?! Is anyone still down there?!" she shouted while moving the broken bricks and tiles above.

Lu Yunxi watched for a while and felt helpless seeing how anxious she was.

"Don't waste your energy. It's useless. No matter how hard you look, it will be a waste of effort." She squatted down, looked at Zhou Yu's hands covered with scratches and dust, and patted Zhou Yu's shoulder.

Tears kept welling up in Zhou Yu's eyes.

After all, she had never seen a dead person, so when she heard Lu Yunxi's words, her face frowned instantly.
