Chapter 53 [Little Gu repays his kindness]

Chapter 52 [Little Gu repays his gratitude]

The Extreme Internet Cafe has closed down, and the photos that should have been lit up at night are now dim.

After the proprietress rented the entire building, she used the first and second floors as an Internet cafe, and the third floor originally had three small rooms, which were used by the proprietress and her siblings as living quarters.

At this moment, in the room at the end of the corridor on the third floor, the proprietress was sitting at the table, carefully flipping through the address book on her mobile phone, her eyes full of anxiety and loss.

In front of me was a takeaway lunch, one meat dish and two vegetable dishes, but I had only taken two bites of it and it was already cold. A layer of greasy white oil floated on the vegetables.

There was no air conditioning in the room, but the proprietress felt hot because of her anxiety.

There were already quite a few cigarette butts in the ashtray on the table.

Although the boss's wife smokes, she is not a heavy smoker and rarely smokes on weekdays. This time, she was anxious and angry about her brother's affairs, and her voice became hoarse from smoking these two days.

She had already made a lot of phone calls that day, asking for help from others, using connections, trying to find someone who could talk to the boss of Luo Yunzhai.

But ultimately, while she was a businesswoman, she was just a small-time internet cafe owner. How big could an internet cafe business be? Even if she knew a few business partners, they were usually computer vendors or equipment vendors selling consumables and accessories, or perhaps even restaurant owners around the block—small business owners.

After a whole day of asking for help from other people, I still couldn't find anyone who could talk to Luo Yunzhai.

There was no good news, but I did find out some bad news: I heard that the owner of Luo Yunzhai seemed to know a lot of important people, and he had contact with many rich and powerful people.

This made the proprietress even more worried.

I was staring blankly at my phone when I heard two light knocks on the door.

The proprietress was startled, looked up, and subconsciously said, "Who?"

"Boss lady, I'm Xiao Gu."

Hearing the familiar sweet voice of the little clip, the proprietress breathed a sigh of relief, walked over and opened the door, and saw Gu Qingyi standing outside, holding a plastic bag containing a lunch box in her hand.

"Xiao Gu! It's really you! A few days ago, you left without saying goodbye and never came back. I thought... I thought you found the person you were looking for, or you went back to your hometown."

The proprietress was a little surprised and excited, and pulled Gu Qingyi into the house.

After looking the girl up and down, the proprietress breathed a sigh of relief: "Not bad, you look clean, so you probably didn't suffer any hardship outside."

"Well, I'm fine, Madam Boss." Gu Qingyi nodded, took out the lunch box from the plastic bag and placed it on the table, then turned to look at Madam Boss: "These are for you to eat."

The proprietress was startled, glanced at the lunch box, and then a forced smile appeared on her face: "Xiao Gu... you are so thoughtful. When you suddenly left a few days ago, I was a little worried and wanted to look for you, but then I...some things got delayed, so I really didn't get to go..."

Gu Qingyi nodded, pulled the boss lady to sit down, then opened the lunch box with her own hands and pushed the roasted chestnut pork in front of her: "Boss lady, have this. I remember you said you like to eat this."

"Yeah." The proprietress grabbed Gu Qingyi's hand, touched her forehead, and helped her tidy up the ends of her hair: "Have you found the person you were looking for?"

"Well, I found it."

"That……"

"I've finished everything here, don't worry." Gu Qingyi pushed the lunch box again: "Hurry up and eat a few bites, it won't taste good if it gets cold."

Along the way, Gu Xiaoniang used her energy to keep the lunch box warm.

The proprietress forced a smile, picked up her chopsticks and ate a chestnut, then put down her chopsticks and took Gu Qingyi's hand: "So, are you going back to your hometown soon? Are you short of money?"

"..." Gu Qingyi stared at the boss lady's face, and suddenly those two beautiful eyebrows slightly frowned: "Boss lady, have you cried? Did someone bully you?"

"No one is bullying me, it's just that I've had some troubles in the store recently."

"No." Gu Qingyi shook his head seriously, "You look like you've been wronged."

"...", the proprietress forced a smile and said, "I'm really fine, it's just... some troubles in the store. It's useless to tell you, a little girl like you, don't ask so many questions."

"That's not right. Your three younger brothers are not in the store, and the store is closed for business." Gu Qingyi frowned and looked at the proprietress.

The proprietress was stunned, and suddenly a thought came to her mind: No! The door of my shop downstairs is locked. How did this little Gu get up here?
"Tell me, who bullied you?" Gu Qingyi stood up.

"I……"

Seeing that the boss lady still looked a little doubtful, Gu Qingyi sighed softly and reached out to hold the boss lady's shoulder: "Boss lady, I'm sorry."

"Ok?"

The proprietress was stunned and saw Xiao Gu in front of her blowing a breath gently at her. Then her eyes blurred and she lost consciousness.

A few minutes later, Gu Qingyi jumped directly from the roof and landed lightly in an alley behind the Internet cafe building.

There was a look of complicated thought on the girl's face.

Hmm...Luo Yunzhai? Luo Qing? Letter of understanding?
·
When it was completely dark, although it was only around eight o'clock in the evening, if it were in other commercial districts, there would probably be no less people at this time.

But the commercial street where Luo Yunzhai is located is different - it does traditional folk business such as incense and magic, and mainly relies on the large temple nearby to bring in traffic.

The commercial street where this kind of business is done becomes deserted at night, with very few people to be seen.

Only a vegetarian restaurant near the main road was still open, while the businesses selling amulets, fortune-telling, and physiognomy had long since closed.

The teahouse opposite Luo Yunzhai had naturally closed, and on the rooftop terrace of the teahouse, a small figure squatted on the edge of the terrace, staring at Luo Yunzhai downstairs and the three courtyards behind it.

A hint of coldness flashed across Gu Qingyi's charming big eyes, and then she took a deep breath.

Turning around, the girl sat cross-legged on the floor of the rooftop, then lightly tapped her fingers, and three small objects appeared in the air in front of her.

If there were people from the north here, they would be able to tell at a glance that these were three Galaha: a dice-like thing made from the hind leg joints of a sheep.

As Gu Qingyi stretched out his hand and pointed, a faint golden light slowly emerged from the three Galahas.

Gu Qingyi immediately pinched his fingerprints with both hands and slowly said:

"Grandmaster, I, the seventeenth-generation daughter of the Gu family, Gu Qingyi, pray for your help!"

After a few seconds, Galaha showed no reaction.

"..."

Gu Qingyi narrowed his eyes, took a deep breath, and pinched the fingerprints with his fingertips again. His tone became more serious and his voice was a little higher:

"Grandmaster! I, the seventeenth-generation daughter of the Gu family, Gu Qingyi, pray! I beg you to grant me your words!"

After waiting for a few seconds, there was still no response.

A hint of annoyance flashed in Gu Qingyi's eyes. He bit his lips hard, and finally sighed helplessly, lowered his head, and his tone became weak.

"Grandmaster, I, the seventeenth-generation daughter of the Gu family... pray, and ask for your words..."

This time, she just changed the name "Gu Qingyi" to her real name at home, but she said it very vaguely, and the last two words were said quickly, as if the two words were hot in the mouth, making it difficult to hear clearly.

But just like that, a few seconds after the words fell, the three Galahas suddenly started spinning on the spot!
Any response?

Gu Qingyi couldn't help but roll his eyes, then quickly restrained his expression and said to the spinning Galaha in a serious and loud voice:

"Report to the ancestor! I have been traveling in the outside world, penniless and living in the open air. Fortunately, a kind person has given me food and clothing, and provided me with a place to shelter, so that I can avoid the hardship of living in the open air.

As the saying goes, a meal must be repaid, and a drop of water must be repaid.

My Gu Clan has its own rules for cultivation: "Favors must be repaid, hatred must be avenged." As a legitimate daughter of the Gu Clan, I must abide by the Gu Clan's rules! I have received favors from others for many days. Now that my benefactor is in trouble, it is my duty to help him.

Someone is bullying my benefactor. I am determined to do this, so I beg for your permission, Grandmaster!

Having said this, the three Galahas suddenly stopped spinning and fell quietly to the ground, with only the golden light on them flickering with a certain rhythm.

Gu Qingyi said in a soft voice, "Excuse me, ancestor, I will directly expose the guy who bullied my benefactor. Is this allowed?"

“…………”Three Galahas lay quietly on the ground, quietly flashing with golden light.

Gu Qingyi raised an eyebrow and carefully changed the topic: "Then... I will leave his body intact and bury him. Is this okay?"

The three Galahas continued to lie there, motionless.

Gu Qingyi’s face puffed up—no killing allowed.

The girl rolled her eyes and continued:
"I will spare his life and only cut off his limbs. Is this possible?"

"I'll just break his legs, is that okay?"

"...where's one leg?"

"Then...how many of his fingers should I cut off?"

"What about the disciples pulling out his tongue?"

He asked several more questions, but Galaha still did not move.

Gu Qingyi was helpless, holding his chin with both hands, and said eagerly: "Then... the most I can do is beat him up, make him lose some money and suffer some physical pain. Is this okay?"

Finally, after these words were spoken, the three Galahas in front of him suddenly turned into golden powder silently and then quickly disappeared.

In Gu Qingyi's ears, he seemed to hear a faint voice coming with the wind.

"……good!"

Hearing this, Gu Qingyi showed a hint of joy on his face, his eyes finally showed great satisfaction, and he jumped up from the ground.

The ancestor has given his advice, so his actions are in line with the rules of the Gu family!
Gu Qingyi's spirits lifted, and she took a step into the air! Her figure was like a flying swallow, crossing the air above the street and directly into the backyard of Luo Yunzhai opposite!

There are three courtyards. Gu Qingyi jumped easily and landed lightly in the third courtyard.

In the courtyard, a few steps away on the left, there is an osmanthus tree as thick as a thigh.

After taking a quick look, Gu Qingyi slowly walked over and hugged the tree trunk with one hand...
