Chapter 54: Mu Chuang Falls into the “Mass Grave”

    Faced with Lin Xi’s persuasion and worry, Zhao Yuming hesitated, but soon he made a decision.

    “Alright,” he looked at the person in front of him, who was worried about him, and a feeling of happiness arose. He temporarily ignored the prediction in his heart, “To avoid Xiaoyu worrying, I’ll get my injury checked first.”

    “Mmm.” Lin Xi responded, then helped him into the small room inside, and under the doctor’s guidance, he sat on the bed.

    Mu Chuang, rarely, didn’t follow him in. He even thought about taking advantage of this gap to hurry back and see how his “old man” was handling things.

    But for some reason, the thought of Lin Xi being alone with Zhao Yuming made him unable to move his feet.

    But if he called Lin Xi away, he believed Zhao Yuming wouldn’t honestly get his injury checked, and might even secretly follow them back.

    Mu Chuang was in a dilemma, only praying in his heart that his “old man” would handle things quickly.

    At this moment, the pharmacy boy came out from inside. He quickly stepped forward to inquire, “How long will it take for the person inside to finish seeing the doctor?”

    The pharmacy boy looked puzzled, but not daring to hesitate due to Mu Chuang’s status, he replied, “About one joss stick’s time.”

    “Understood,” Mu Chuang replied, afraid of arousing the pharmacy boy’s suspicion, he added, “Seeing as he’s injured, I’ll be merciful and not hold it against him. Go tell Young Master Lin that I’m waiting for him outside. As for today’s matter, I’ll punish him when we get back.”

    Punishment was necessary, but delaying him here was also necessary. Mu Chuang reluctantly swallowed this breath.

    “Okay.” The pharmacy boy responded, casually picked up a medicinal herb, and went inside.

    Mu Chuang took advantage of this opportunity to slip into a dark place and try to use qinggong (light body skill).

    He thought that the original owner’s hands were so strong, he must know martial arts, so qinggong must be no problem. He just didn’t know how effective it would be when he used it.

    He tried hard to jump on the ground, but unexpectedly, with one push of his foot, he directly flipped over the courtyard wall and fell down. Fortunately, the original owner was built like steel and iron, otherwise he would definitely have been injured.

    “Motherfker,” he cursed in a low voice as he lay on the ground, “Always dressed like a peacock, but I didn’t expect his kung fu to be so awesome, just one push and he flipped over, causing me not to be able to brake.”

    “If I keep pushing, can I keep flying in the air?” Thinking this, he quickly got up and did as he thought.

    Sure enough, the speed was as fast as being thrown through the air, “whoosh” he shot across the night sky, and then disappeared into some corner.

    When Mu Chuang got up, he exclaimed, “Damn it, I’ve lost my bearings, what the hell is this place?”

    He got up and looked around, only to see that it was pitch black all around. Using the faint light coming in from who knows where, he could roughly see some blurry scenes.

    The ground was messy, with some dead wood lying scattered, mixed with weeds, as if no one had taken care of it for a long time.

    To the front side was a pile of debris, looking a bit like wood, and behind it came a burst of crackling sounds, intermittently, and someone seemed to be crying.

    “What the hell?” Mu Chuang wondered in his heart, “Did my ‘brakes’ fail and I drove into a mass grave?”

    In this dark night, hearing these low cries, coupled with the messy ground, it was hard not to have this feeling.

    “Motherfker, come out for me!” He had received modern education, and was sure that he had misunderstood, and that there were no such things as ghosts, “Why are you howling like ghosts in the middle of the night? If you have a grievance, go to the yamen to appeal, why are you crying here?”

    Then, in the next second, the crying stopped abruptly, replaced by rustling footsteps, like cloth rubbing against the dead grass and fallen leaves on the ground, currently bypassing the pile of debris, cautiously approaching this side.

    Mu Chuang quickly flashed to the other side of the pile of debris, avoiding the line of sight that was about to collide with the other party, and decided to wait until he had observed clearly before taking action.

    At this moment, the footsteps suddenly stopped, as if the other party had fallen into brief thought because they hadn’t found the target, and then in the next second…

    “Pa pa pa… bang bang bang…” a sound of a stick hitting the pile of debris, coupled with a woman’s panicked and frightened scream, came…

    “Motherfker,” Mu Chuang cursed inwardly, “I thought it was some ghost or god, but it turned out to be these three bchy women.”

    After cursing, he remembered: so my positioning system was fine, it was directly aimed at my own woodshed. These three women hadn’t finished chopping the firewood, and were still working overtime here.

    After figuring out this series of problems, he flashed out, patted the dust off his body, and shouted loudly, “What are you screaming for? Scream again and I’ll sew your mouths shut, you’re deafening me. With that energy, you might as well hurry up and do your work.”

    The woman’s scream stopped abruptly.

    “Hus… band…?” Liu Jingjing was the first to make a sound. It was unknown if it was because her eyes were bigger than the other two, but she was able to recognize him in such a dim place, “How are you here?”

    The other two heard this, and also quickly gathered around, “It really is.”

    They said in unison, revealing the same expression, all feeling surprised.

    Using the faint light coming through from the front yard, Mu Chuang finally saw what they looked like…

    Their hair was messy, they were wearing long dresses, and even in such dim light, he could see that they were stained with a lot of dust and mud. Each of them was a mess, and each was holding a stick. The whole scene was a bit comical.

    Mu Chuang couldn’t help but laugh, he would suffocate if he didn’t laugh.

    “Haha…haha…hahaha…” He laughed so hard that he couldn’t straighten his back, making the three women look dumbfounded, “Haha…laughing to death, without those high-end cosmetics, each of your true appearances is only so-so, making me blinded and hurting little Xi…”

    He said to here, his mind cleared in a second, “Fk you, I still have serious business to do.”

    Then he ignored the three women and walked in the direction of the light, slowly finding the residence of Master Mu with his unfamiliar memory.

    Who knew, he wasn’t even in the house at this moment.

    Mu Chuang was anxious, and in his urgent situation, he decided to explore the prison to see if he could solve the mystery.

    “Stop!” A familiar voice suddenly sounded behind him, “Where have you been messing around, only coming back now?”

    Mu Chuang turned around, and upon turning his head, he met his “old man’s” somewhat stern gaze under the light, which seemed to carry a hint of weariness.

    “Is the matter settled?” He skipped answering his question and directly asked what he was most concerned about, “Zhao Yuming is already suspicious. If it weren’t for Xiaoyu stalling him, he might already be looking for people now.”

    Master Mu’s face darkened upon hearing this. He didn’t expect Zhao Yuming to be so sensitive, that he could even foresee this.
