Chapter 709: Journey to the West - Moonlight Box 3
"You don't want to tell me, right? If you don't tell me, don't blame me for being rude!" The Third In Command drew the weapon from his waist, pointed at Ruyi and said harsh words. Ruyi took a step forward and was about to explain, but saw the Third In Command suddenly take a step back.
"Hey, hey, don't try to fool me. I'm telling you, I'm very powerful."
"The axe in my hand is the one that has killed tens of millions of people. It's very powerful. If you don't say anything, I'm going to chop you down!" Although the Third In Command's words were fierce, he seemed to be getting more and more distant. Ruyi looked at him with a frown as he kept swearing and retreating. The reason she had just thought of was on her lips, but she couldn't find a chance to explain it.
"The Third Master..."
"Don't call me, I tell you, I'm not afraid of you!" The third in command did not give Ruyi any chance to interrupt. He had sharp eyes and noticed that Ruyi's aura had suddenly changed a lot when he just came in. He felt dangerous as soon as he approached and realized that he was no match for Ruyi at all. The third in command took the opportunity to slip away while saying something harsh.
"Ahhhhhhh, boss, it's bad, five hundred taels of gold is going to kill someone!" The third in command's expression changed drastically as he walked out of the room, and he ran towards the first in command's residence shouting in panic, shouting that five hundred taels of gold was going to kill someone. When the bandits passing by heard this, they all nervously chased after the third in command.
"Third Master, Third Master, what's wrong?!"
"What happened?!"
"......" Ruyi felt that all the bandits around her room disappeared after the Third In Command ran away. She felt speechless. So, what on earth had she done to the Third In Command to make him so scared?
"It's really a comedy movie. This development really caught me off guard." I thought the funny and nonsensical plots in the movie were just the result of the filming techniques and the actors' deliberate exaggeration. I didn't expect that this world is really a bit crazy.
In front of Zhizunbao's courtyard, the Third in Command rushed in shouting in panic, followed by a group of bandits who came to watch the fun. They followed in and filled the entire courtyard in an instant.
Zhizunbao was admiring his own handsome face in the room when he was startled by the Third In Command's shout. His hand shook and he almost dropped the mirror in his hand to the ground.
"Third in command, you are going to die! Don't you know that you can't just enter the big boss's room? You have to knock on the door before coming in?" Zhizunbao just grabbed the mirror in his hand, and saw the third in command pushing the door open and coming in. He immediately stuffed the mirror in his hand into his arms, fearing that the third in command would see it and lose his status as the big boss.
"I'm sorry, Boss." The third in command admitted his mistake honestly.
"Well, go out. Hey, remember to close the door for me!"
After being scolded by the boss, the third boss instantly forgot the purpose of his visit to the boss. He obediently left and closed the door. When he turned around, he saw the entire Axe Gang standing in the yard looking at him. Those pairs of eyes full of curiosity were staring at the third boss. When they saw the third boss come out, they immediately asked, "Third boss, what on earth did you just shout about, 'Five hundred taels of gold to kill people'?"
"Ah?" After being reminded by others, the Third Master immediately remembered the purpose of his visit and opened the door again and ran in: "Boss, Boss, something bad has happened. There's something wrong with that five hundred taels of gold!"
The big boss Zhizunbao had been squatting by the door and eavesdropping when the third in command went out. He was caught off guard by the third in command who rushed in again.
"Boss, Boss, are you okay?"
"It's all my fault. If I hadn't been careless, the boss wouldn't have been knocked unconscious." The third in command hugged the boss, who was dizzy and about to fall to the ground. His eyes were full of heartache and guilt. When he lowered his head to care for the boss, the third in command suddenly realized that this was a good opportunity, so he immediately pouting his lips and closing his eyes and kissed the boss in his arms.
"Oh, the boss has fainted. It seems that artificial respiration is necessary to save the boss. I will give him artificial respiration--"
"No--"
As soon as the big boss recovered and opened his eyes, he saw a bearded man with his eyes closed and his lips pouted, ready to kiss him. He immediately pushed the head of the third boss with all his strength, "Third boss, I'm fine. I'm fine now. I don't need you to give me artificial respiration."
The boss said the words "artificial respiration" with gritted teeth. When he saw the boss regain consciousness, push himself away and get up from the ground, the third boss's eyes were filled with disappointment.
"Third in command, let's talk about business first. What happened to the five hundred taels of gold you just mentioned?" Afraid that the third in command would not give up and insist on giving him artificial respiration, the eldest in command quickly changed the subject and talked about business. The third in command quickly returned to normal, and began to talk about how he went to deliver medicine to Ruyi and found that Ruyi's injuries were healed, etc.
"Boss, I'm not blind and I'm talking nonsense. Something is wrong with that five hundred taels of gold. She was injured so badly, but it only took ten days to recover. When I went there, her aura was totally unlike that of an ordinary person."
"Then who do you think the five hundred taels of gold is?"
The eldest boss naturally believed what the third in command said. After hearing what the bandits outside the door, they also started to speculate. Some said that Ruyi might be an undercover sent by another gang and her previous injuries were fake. Some said that Ruyi was so beautiful that she must be the concubine of a wealthy businessman who had escaped and the injuries on her body must have been caused by the wealthy businessman’s wife. Others said that Ruyi might be a martial artist and must have met an enemy before, otherwise she would not have been so seriously injured.
Most of the bandits agreed that Ruyi was a martial artist. Even the third in command, who had the most contact with Ruyi, felt that this statement was very likely. At this moment, the second in command suddenly came up with another statement.
"I think the person with the five hundred taels of gold is most likely not a human."
As soon as these words came out, the whole courtyard fell silent, leaving only the sound of everyone's heavier breathing. Suddenly, someone whispered, "No, that's impossible. If it's not a human, then, what could it be?"
"No, what the second in command said is very likely. If it were a human, even a martial artist, he should not have such a strong recovery ability." After the first boss thought about it seriously, he suddenly realized that what the second in command said was very likely.
"As for what it is, I think besides monsters, the only other options are gods..."
Indeed, their Axe Gang has been entrenched in the Five Mountains for more than ten years, and they have heard many legends about gods and monsters. For example, isn't there a big monster called Bull Demon King living on the Niutou Mountain not far from here?
"It seems that this time I have to personally take action."
"No, Boss. What if she is a monster and eats you? Why don't I test her identity for you?"
The Third In Command was afraid of Ruyi, so naturally he was unwilling to ask the First In Command to go see Ruyi in person. He just suggested going himself, but the First In Command felt that he had already alerted the enemy and it was not appropriate for him to go again. So after a few "discussions", the task of testing Ruyi's identity fell on the Second In Command.
