CIATB Chapter 288 And a burden
Chapter 288 And a burden
night.
Li Cu suddenly woke up and sat up.
By the light of a desk lamp, I found myself in a tent.
His memory still lingered on the time when he was being hunted by the Wang family. The dense pain and the white cloth wrapped around his body proved that his memory was correct. But now...
Wuxie and the others succeeded, so I was rescued as well, right?
Li Cu heard the conversation coming from outside the tent, subconsciously put on his shoes, took out the dagger from his bag, and carefully lifted the tent curtain.
The sound of conversation came from several campfires not far away.
There are several familiar figures inside.
He put away his dagger and walked out of the tent. A gust of cold wind made him more awake, and he slowly walked towards the campfire.
"Hey, our hero is awake. How does he feel?"
The first person to notice Li Cu was the man sitting in the center. He was wearing a hood and had a cold temperament. He didn't look like the rogue Wuxie he knew.
It was the man sitting next to the hooded man who alerted them.
This person had a faint smile on his face, his eyes slightly narrowed, and he looked lazy and easy-going.
"Not bad." Li Cu replied to the person who spoke to him.
This person's style is more like a gangster, he is a bit fat, has a Beijing accent, and looks big and strong.
"Fatty, move aside a little."
It turns out he is the fat man.
Li Cu watched Wu Xie make room for him, then raised his head and beckoned him over, "Come and sit down, what would you like to eat?"
"What else can he eat? Just some light porridge with some water and some vegetables. Nothing more for now."
Hei Xia Zi handed Li Cu a cup of warm water, which simply solved his problem of eating and drinking.
"Let me introduce them to you." Hei Xiazi saw that Li Cu's eyes were always on the people opposite him, so he said,
"The man next to me is the head of the Xie family, Xie Yuchen. You can call him Master Huaer."
Jie Yuchen nodded to Li Cu.
"You've met Wang Meng. The one next to him is Huo Xiuxiu, the head of the Huo family." Wuxie took over Hei Xiazi's words, glanced at Wang Meng, and then shifted his gaze to Huo Xiuxiu.
“As for the two opposite, they are Brother and Master Qin.
Those two I often tell you about are them.”
So that's how it is, Li Cu suddenly understood.
When he followed Wuxie to the desert for the first time, Wuxie's stories always included three people, one of whom was a fat man, and the other two were the two in front of him.
Wuxie said that when he first started working in this field, he was able to survive safely only thanks to the two of them, otherwise he would have died countless times.
Li Cu's right eyelid twitched and the corners of his mouth twitched.
Someone also said that he was unlucky in the past and could not find so many helpers.
That's bullshit! You call that not enough help?!
Just by looking at the temperament of these people, you can tell that they are not people to be trifled with!
Li Cu lowered his eyes, gritted his teeth and rolled his eyes secretly. When he looked up again, he looked well-behaved. He greeted them politely, "Hello, I'm Li Cu."
"Hello." Huo Xiuxiu smiled and waved.
Zhang Qiling and Qin Yuchen just nodded to him.
"Has the Wang family's headquarters been destroyed? And when did I get out of it? And where is this place?"
Li Cu calmed himself down, took a sip of water and asked in one breath. As soon as he finished asking, he coughed violently a few times.
"Hey kid, why don't you ask them one by one? We are all here, it's not like we won't give you answers."
Wu Xie patted Li Cu's back. The fat man poured the cooked porridge into a bowl and let it cool down, and advised,
“The Wang family base has been razed to the ground by us, and you were rescued by Master Qin.
As for time, two days and almost three days have passed.
We are on our way back now, and because you haven't woken up yet, we are walking very slowly."
"Thank you, Mr. Qin." Li Cu immediately thanked Qin Yuchen.
Qin Yuchen shook his head to indicate that everything was fine.
"Then is my mission completed?" Li Cu asked again.
"Yes, that's why I call you a great hero." The fat man said with a smile.
"Then can I go home now? And..." Li Cu hesitated for a moment, looked at Wu Xie and continued,
"And how are my dad, Su Wan, and Yang Hao?"
"You can go wherever you want now."
Wuxie answered Li Cu's first question first, and then he looked at Hei Xia Zi for the second question.
"Don't worry, they are all doing well. You will be able to see them when you go back this time." Hei Xiazi said.
"Including your father."
"That's good." Li Cu breathed a sigh of relief.
The matter between him and Yang Hao has not been resolved yet. He must make things clear when he returns this time, otherwise it will not be good if the misunderstanding continues.
Li Cu took the porridge at the right temperature and ate while listening to their conversation.
"What are everyone's plans next?" Wuxie asked.
Fatty: "You know, I'm going to Banai."
"It's been so long and you still haven't caught up with the person?" Hei Xia Zi laughed.
"It's almost time, guys, come to the wedding." The fat man smiled, his face full of happiness.
"I'm fine." Jie Yuchen replied while drinking water.
"I've resolved the Huo family's affairs, so there shouldn't be any problems." Huo Xiuxiu thought about it and it seemed that all she had left to do now was to clean up the mess, so she replied like this.
Wu Xie: "Huo Youxue probably won't be able to come back. I heard that almost everyone who went to Gutongjing died."
"Yes, and with Brother Xiaohua and the teacher here, it's easy to solve." Huo Xiuxiu nodded.
"Okay, if you need any help, just ask, we'll be there anytime." Wuxie breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay, thank you, Brother Wuxie."
"Old Qin and I are going back to Beijing. If we have nothing to do, we'll go traveling." After listening to Wuxie and Huo Xiuxiu, Hei Xiazi took over the topic and raised his chin to Qin Yuchen.
"I'm afraid it won't work. I have a small mission when I go back this time, so only you and Zhang Qiling will go back to the courtyard." Qin Yuchen leaned against Zhang Qiling and said.
"Damn, why is there another mission?!" Hei Xia Zi frowned and looked at Zhang Qiling.
Zhang Qiling, in a daze, immediately looked at Qin Yuchen: "I want to go too."
"I'm going too!" Jie Yuchen quickly grabbed Qin Yuchen's hand and looked at him expectantly.
"I...the Huo family's affairs can be put aside for now, so I'll go too." Huo Xiuxiu also joined in the fun.
"That won't work. If all three of you want to go, then Tianzhen and I will have to go too." The fat man put his arm around Wuxie's shoulder and gestured.
Wuxie nodded.
"If my boss goes, I want to go too!" Comrade Wang Meng is the one who really wants to join in the fun.
"I……"
Qin Yuchen interrupted Hei Xiazi and said with a smile: "No."
"Why?" Several people asked in unison.
Zhang Qiling pursed his lips and stared at Qin Yuchen with a look of grievance.
"Because it's troublesome." Qin Yuchen didn't give them any face at all.
"And it's a burden."
Several people:"……"
"Pfft—cough cough cough... Sorry I choked." Noticing that everyone's eyes were on him, Li Cu, who wanted to laugh, quickly wiped his mouth and apologized.
Hei Xiazi just glanced at him briefly, then complained to Qin Yuchen: "Old Qin, you could have just said Wuxie and the others were a burden, why did you bring me and the mute with you?"
Qin Yuchen continued to smile and stared at Hei Xia Zi very kindly.
Black Blind Man: "..."
"Well, I'm a burden too."
Look, this is the real boss of this team.
Just one sentence silenced everyone present.
And, hahahahaha, it’s really cool to see Wuxie get humiliated!!
There is actually someone who can deal with him!
