C16 The Treasure of a Shy Girl
Is there something wrong with my ears or is there something wrong with this Boss Gao's head?
Just as I was wondering, Boss Gao repeated with extreme impatience, "Take off your clothes!"
A thick sputum stuck in his throat made me feel uncomfortable all over.
For some reason, I suddenly thought of that slap just now. My face was still burning with pain, so I unwillingly let out an "Oh" and slowly unbuttoned my clothes like I was playing a slow game.
I wore only a thin tunic, and the second the coarse fabric left my skin, the cool spring wrapped around my body as if it were alive, as if it were soaking into every inch of flesh.
I think it must have something to do with my life.
In almost an instant, an aged voice sounded out from within the cave.
It seemed to be calling.
Boss Gao was kneeling on the ground and kowtowing nonstop. His head was bleeding profusely, but he was completely oblivious to it. The last strike seemed to use all of my strength. With a heavy sound, it almost cracked my eardrums.
Boss Gao kowtowed his head then picked me up and walked me into the cave.
The cave was dark except for a faint light coming from not far away. Bats were hanging upside down on Shi Yan's body, quietly guarding this area.
I was carried by Boss Gao like an object towards the light, but the closer I got, the colder I felt, as if I was going to pierce into my bone marrow. Remembering the jacket I threw in the pool, I could not help but feel sad.
"Gulp, gulp ~ ~"
Just as I was lost in my thoughts, the familiar sound started to come from Boss Gao's throat again, with a faint excitement. I knew that he had found something else, and that everything was going in the direction that he had expected.
Boss Gao finally stopped in front of a stone monument. He took out another piece of kraft paper from his coat pocket and compared it with the words written on the stone monument — he was as serious as a peddler affixing film under the bridge.
I did not recognize any of the words on the stone tablet, or, more strictly, they were not words at all, but merely symbols in the shape of elephants.
There was something wrong with me when I was young, and that was that I couldn't see any dense text or symbols. Otherwise, I would definitely be sleepy.
Just as I couldn't stop nodding my head and my saliva was hanging on the corner of my mouth, I was suddenly hit on the head. Boss Gao's voice came down from above: "Let's go!"
"So what? Why are you always hitting me?!" At most, I only dared to mutter a few words.
After walking behind Boss Gao for about ten meters, the darkness in front of me was suddenly replaced by a bright room. The source of that light was actually a female statue!
What was going on? Why would a shy girl suddenly appear here? Weren't they still on the Dirty Girl Peak just now? Could it be that Boss Gao was using this to trick him?
However, Boss Gao didn't even give me the chance to analyze the situation. He directly kicked my butt, knocking me down to the ground.
I had forgotten how many times I had been beaten today, but I swore to myself that I would get it all back when I got out!
I mean, if I could walk out of here alive...
Under my resentful gaze, Boss Gao took out a small bowl from the pocket of his trench coat, and I couldn't help but be curious about his pocket. After all, the only thing I had seen that could keep taking things out of my pocket was the blue robotic cat.
"I can use some of it." Boss Gao threw the bowl in front of me as if I were his mobile blood station.
I bit my finger symbolically, and sure enough, in the next second a drop of blood seeped from my fingertip and dripped into the bowl.
I was already weak, and Boss Gao had forced me to bleed again. I felt a golden star rising above my head, ready to fall down at any moment.
However, Boss Gao was a greedy person. When he saw how weak I was, he didn't show any sympathy. Instead, he said with a deadpan face, "This little bit of blood is useless, just put it away a bit more."
This time, I could no longer suppress the anger in my heart and choked on my own words, "Do you think this is cooking with salt? If you want to add more, please do so. Let me tell you, your grandpa's blood is expensive. If my grandpa finds out …"
Just as I was about to speak, the shy girl suddenly trembled and slowly moved to the side, revealing a red willow box that was hidden behind her. The statue of the shy girl slowly rose into a thin cloud of smoke. The wisps of smoke dispersed in the air, not a single trace could be found.
When Boss Gao saw the wooden box, he had already lost the interest to listen to what I had to say. He fiercely pushed me aside and rushed towards the wooden box like a hungry wolf.
"It's a success, it's a success …" He muttered something, his face contorted with excitement, his eyes shining with undisguised greed.
This is … He succeeded?
I looked at everything that was happening before me in disbelief. I wondered wildly: Since Boss Gao had successfully gotten what he wanted, did this mean that I didn't have to be sacrificed?
Oh! Say it earlier, it made me nervous for so long!
Just when I was overjoyed, Boss Gao suddenly turned around with the wooden box in his arms. I don't know if I was mistaken, but I felt that Boss Gao's current appearance was even uglier, like a pile of rotten meat hanging from a skeleton. Compared to his current appearance, Green Faced Fierce Tooth could be considered a word of praise.
"He really is a genius of Yin and Yang, to think that a drop of the blood of the Supreme Yin would be enough to make this shy girl obediently hand over the treasure." Boss Gao muttered to himself as he hugged the box even tighter.
And his move made me even more curious about what he meant by "the treasure of a shy girl."
Boss Gao saw me staring at the box with a vigilant expression and asked with a stern gaze, "What are you planning to do?"
I was stunned. I don't know why he suddenly acted like he was defending himself against thieves. I clearly didn't want to do anything.
However, before I could even say a single word, Boss Gao placed the box in a concealed corner and turned around to look at me coldly, as if he wanted to fight with me.
I admitted that I wasn't his opponent and didn't have the interest to fight with him. I said speechlessly, "Boss Gao, you misunderstood me. I didn't …"
But before I could finish my sentence, Boss Gao pounced on me like a madman. I was not in a hurry to dodge, and he threw me to the ground. Then I tragically discovered that this Boss Gao not only had an armpit odor, but also a bad breath.
My head felt like it was going to burst, and I could only smash my limp fist against his body. However, even I didn't expect that such a small, harmless fist would actually hit Boss Gao... Hammer on the ground?
I looked at my little fist in disbelief.
How could I have so easily defeated a monster? If I told Little Fatty this, he would probably think that I was just bragging.
