A hint of melancholy flickered in Qingzi's eyes, before she regained her composure.

"why?"

"A love as dazzling as cherry blossoms is enough once, and it's best to burn to ashes before it rots. Since one person has to die in order to preserve the love at its most beautiful moment, then it's naturally better to let the other person die."

"That's what Qingzi said calmly."

"Very good, the Metropolis really does produce crazy women. Hold on tight."

Liu Zheng reached out and threw her onto his back.

"You'd better hurry, Grandma Tang comes to check on me every day, but the time is not fixed."

Qingzi tightened the rope around his neck and shouted a warning.

At the same time, she also saw the package tied around her neck.

Judging from its shape, it must contain a humanoid creature.

She was curious about who was inside, but wisely refrained from asking.

"It's alright, let her experience the warmth of city people."

Liu Zheng said nonchalantly.

Once he had rescued the person, he had nothing to be afraid of.

Even if Granny Tang is stronger than Shao Yanming, she wouldn't be much stronger, otherwise Thirteen and the others wouldn't dare to object.

He used both the cosplay outfit and the legendary underwear to kill a god, which he felt was not worth it.

Feeling Liu Zheng's domineering presence, Qingzi felt much more at ease.

She couldn't help but wonder how much her family had gone to to hire such a powerful helper.

What if she comes home to find her entire family begging on the streets?

Despite his words, Liu Zheng didn't slow down at all. After a few hoofbeats, he was back at the elevator entrance.

"Eye!"

Just as he pressed the button, a deafening roar suddenly came from the direction of the prison, like that of an enraged lioness.

"They actually found out."

Liu Zheng stood with his back to the elevator, ready for battle.

Soon, accompanied by the whistling wind, a fat, loose-skinned hand appeared in his field of vision.

Each finger of his large hand wore a gemstone ring, of different types and sizes, but the smallest was the size of a quail egg.

"Be careful, this is Grandma Tang's hand."

Now that she had been discovered, Qingzi no longer tried to hide it.

"It's not the real body."

Liu Zheng was somewhat disappointed.

He first tossed his head, sending both Jingzi and Wanzi flying into the open elevator. Then he lowered his head, shifted his weight forward, and assumed a bullfighting stance.

The two horns stretched out again and intertwined, forming a spiral horn.

"Die to me!"

The horse pawed at the floor a few times, then suddenly looked up.

With a deafening roar, the speed of the horn strike broke the sound barrier.

The overflowing energy directly enveloped the bull's horn, forming a gaseous spiral several meters long.

Sensing danger, Grandma Tang applied the brakes immediately.

But Liu Zheng wasn't about to let this opportunity slip by, and he charged straight ahead.

Seeing that she couldn't dodge the attack, Granny Tang had no choice but to unleash her magic.

The jade ring on her ring finger shone brightly, transforming into a verdant screen in front of Grandma Tang's hand.

"Crack!"

A sound like glass cracking rang out, and the emerald green barrier shattered along with the pigeon-egg-sized jade.

The spiral unicorn continued its unstoppable thrust towards Granny Tang's palm.

"Bakana (Impossible)!"

Grandma Tang screamed in shock.

Then, the yellow sapphire ring on her little finger flashed, and Grandma Tang's hand disappeared into thin air.

"Damn it, if you can't beat them, you teleport. That's so cheating."

Liu Zheng cursed.

He could curse as much as he wanted, but there was nothing he could do. He couldn't possibly chase after them and attack them; that would be too stupid.

He shook his head and turned to walk into the elevator.

Liu Zheng pressed the button for basement level, and the elevator vibrated before starting to descend.

"I hope you can help my family reunite soon."

Only when the elevator doors opened again did a weak voice come from the exit.

"Don't worry, I, Liu Zheng, will never treat my friends unfairly."

He nodded.

Qingzi and Wanzi do not meet the requirements for riding, and they will have to pay a price if they insist on riding.

Since they cannot pay the price, then the elevator itself must bear that price.

"Many thanks."

Liu Zheng carried Qingzi and Wanzi on his back again and then walked out of the elevator.

The spying from the darkness returned, and this time there were many more of them than before.

"Screw you, come out and fight me if you dare, and I'll pack you all up and take you back to my restaurant as ingredients."

He said, cursing.

Sensing the malice in his words, my voyeuristic feeling lessened considerably.

"Still looking? Fine, I'll bleed you dry and cut off all your filthy, smelly parts."

Liu Zheng spat out the boning knife and made a move to walk into the depths of darkness.

The feeling of being spied on completely disappeared.

"Virtue."

He took a sip and took out eight pieces of coal ash given to him.

The coal ash glows when exposed to air, emitting a faint red light.

In the darkness in the distance, a flame rose, whether bright or dark.

"I'm leaving now, Uncle Hachijo. If they need any help, please let them contact me, and I'll do my best."

Liu Zheng shouted a greeting and rushed toward the firelight.

Soon, he saw the source of the fire.

A campfire was slowly burning in the open space beside the wall.

Liu Zheng walked to the campfire, first checked the ground, and after finding nothing amiss, turned his gaze to the wall.

After checking and finding no mechanism, he tried tapping it with his hoof a few times, but it was all solid.

However, thanks to his keen senses, he noticed that the sound from one of the walls was a little quieter.

Liu Zheng ducked and pushed, easily embedding the bull's horn into the wall. Then, he stepped back and pulled out a large brick.

In the dim light of the campfire, the water pipe opening inside was faintly visible.

"Sigh, the time for suffering has come."

He lay on the ground, wriggling like a worm.

His bones and muscles continued to deform, and after a series of firecracker-like sounds, he transformed into a thin and long ox or horse.

"If cattle and horses saw me like this, they would probably sue me for insulting their portrait rights."

Looking at himself, Liu Zheng couldn't help but laugh at himself.

Then, he rummaged through the hole and climbed into the water pipe.

A few seconds later, Hachijo's figure emerged from the darkness.

A group of golden balls followed him, bouncing and emitting a faint glow, like fireflies.

A moment later, Thirteen Orphans also appeared, carrying a kerosene lamp.

"That kid left?"

he asked.

"Can't you see for yourself, kid?"

Eight said without giving any face whatsoever.

"Uncle Hachijo, I've already become a minister, can't you give me some face?"

Thirteen Yao smiled bitterly.

"Even if you become a boss, you're still that idiot kid who stole my aphrodisiac and almost died."

Eight twitched his beard and said.

"Uncle Hachijo! If you keep bringing up my shortcomings, I'm going to get angry."

The thirteenth orphanage has a sharp, explosive sound.

"There's no one else around, what are you afraid of?"

Grandpa Hachi rolled his eyes.

As the most popular and longest-serving employee at Hyakki Yagyō Bathhouse, Hachijo knows countless employees' dark histories.

"No one is allowed either. If you say that again, I'm really going to lose my temper."

Thirteen Yao glared at him.

"whispering sound."

Eight picked up the stone bricks from the ground and stuffed them back into the wall.

He then pulled out a dark, lumpy thing from his pocket and used it to cover the hole that Liu Zheng had poked.

Chapter 411 Sleep with your sister today, it doesn't matter if things fall apart tomorrow.

Did you tell him about Grandma Qian?

Hachijo suddenly asked.

"not yet."

Thirteen Orphans shook his head.

When do you plan to say it?

"Let's wait and see, at least until this matter is settled."

Thirteen said.

First, he wanted to see if Liu Zheng could successfully rescue the person and escape unscathed.

Secondly, he wanted to see if Liu Zheng could protect those who had helped him.

Finally, he also needed to see Liu Zheng's attitude towards him.

"If things settle down, are you really planning to let him bring Grandma Qian back?"

Eight questions were asked.
