The First Gospel Chapter 38: Lucky Rabbit's Foot (Part 3)
In order to hide her tracks, An Ling called a taxi.
Only half of the remaining 69 yuan and 50 cents was left. After getting off the bus, she held her wallet in pain. If she had to take a taxi to go home, she might become a real "zero-yuan girl".
And the reason for all this...
It was just because Gu Yun wanted to come here to fight with others!
An Ling had never imagined that the reward offered by the boss of Liao's Real Estate would cause such a sensation. Just after ten o'clock, the streets and alleys were filled with people who spontaneously went out to look for the whereabouts of the White Rabbit.
Even taxi drivers would glance to both sides of the street from time to time while driving.
This may be the charm of one hundred thousand yuan.
In order not to cause a commotion, the white rabbit curled up and hid motionlessly in the inside pocket of her clothes.
"It should be here."
The taxi finally stopped on a rather dilapidated street.
This street, which directly connects to the residential area, is sparsely populated and surprisingly has few pedestrians, as if even the searchers look down on this place.
When he got off the car, the man the suit man mentioned did not show up. Gu Yun found a corner against the wall and waited patiently.
On his left was a shabby electric pole, on which, apart from some unspeakable small advertisements, there was also a torn notice looking for a "rabbit".
The photo on the notice had been torn up by someone who later tried to advertise on it, and all that could be seen was a photo of a little boy and a white rabbit.
There seemed to be the owner's phone number at the bottom of the notice, but the number had been blacked out.
"The reward is... three hundred yuan?"
An Ling silently recited the text on the notice.
Compared with the boss of Liao's Real Estate who spent 100,000 yuan at a time, these 300 yuan were not even enough to fill the gaps between their teeth. However, in addition to the most important bounty, there was also a passage written by an elementary school student attached to it.
Using a diary-like writing style, he tells the story of the sincere friendship between him and the white rabbit. This narrative style can be seen at first glance as being written by a child.
“Someone is looking for it.”
"This rabbit may have been this child's pet in the beginning."
An Ling said without hesitation.
But, so what?
Compared with the insignificant three hundred yuan, one hundred thousand yuan is the huge bounty that people dream of. In order to get this huge sum of money, it doesn’t matter who the rabbit originally belonged to.
"Go find them."
Gu Yun said to the white rabbit that had poked its head out of An Ling's arms. The white rabbit kicked its hind legs hard, causing An Ling to stagger. After landing, it ran towards the nearby residential area without looking back.
"You can go and have a look too."
"Ah? I didn't pry into other people's privacy..."
An Ling's words came to an abrupt end.
A van stopped at the corner of the street, and only one person got out of the van.
Although there was only one person, his aura was completely different from that of the previous small fry.
The man had white bandages wrapped around both sides of his arms and was slightly hunched over, but even with his back hunched, he was still nearly two meters tall.
In this cold weather, he wore a white vest and a pair of navy blue ripped jeans. The strong muscles on his arms were exposed, and even from a distance, one could feel the strong sense of oppression.
If Gu Yun looked like a fitness enthusiast on the surface, then the man walking towards him looked like a monster that could only appear in the fighting movies next door.
"I see."
An Ling nodded and followed him tactfully.
She was understanding and heard the deeper meaning in Gu Yun's words - you are too inexperienced, don't get in the way here.
Well, although it’s a bit hurtful to be honest, it’s surprisingly thoughtful.
The visitor had no intention of stopping her, but waved at Gu Yun with a strange smile.
"I heard you put them all down."
Approaching Gu Yun, the man put his hand on Gu Yun's shoulder in a familiar manner, "Fighting with those scumbags is boring, right? Although it is more convenient to snipe you from a distance, it is too boring."
"That's fine. I wanted you to be fully prepared."
"Tsk tsk, ignorance is bliss - listen carefully, our boss hopes to recruit the best in all walks of life, whether they are legendary mercenaries, former boxing champions of the underground world, or free-fighting champions, they are all his recruits."
"So, there are many people as strong as you?"
"Of course." The man chuckled. "However, strength or weakness is not something that can be told with words. By the way, that guy mentioned on the phone that you have already received the goods."
It is said that the white rabbit can be made into a pendant that brings absolute luck and is a priceless treasure for merchants.
The boss of Liao's Real Estate offered a reward of one hundred thousand yuan, but after getting the rabbit, he could earn dozens or even hundreds of times the profit in a blink of an eye.
"The higher the status of a person, the more value they can bring out. If it's in your hands, I'm afraid it won't even be worth 100,000 yuan, so I advise you to hand over the white rabbit in exchange for the bounty."
"It's not the behavior of a warrior to steal someone else's pet."
"Boring persistence. These days, making money is the most important thing, especially in our industry. Naturally, we have to make more money while we can."
“ I beg to differ .”
Gu Yun didn't know why this person was talking so much. Using other people's rabbits to exchange for a bounty was against his principles.
A true warrior will never do anything sneaky.
What Liao's real estate did was indeed a thief's act. Although this man was very strong, he degenerated and became an accomplice of the thief, which disappointed Gu Yun. The elder said that cultivation is not only about the body, but also about the heart.
"It seems that I won't be able to find the white rabbit unless I kill you."
The man's hand on Gu Yun's shoulder suddenly exerted force, clamping Gu Yun's movements like an iron clamp, "I thought we could be friends... But to me, money is much more important than friends."
If one day, the person who is offered a bounty is his friend, he will do it without hesitation.
After bringing the white rabbit back, not only will he receive a reward of 100,000 yuan immediately, but the owner of Liao's Real Estate will also have to pay the cost of hiring him. The two together amount to a very expensive sum.
"Before that, I would like to ask, the technique you used is Kung Fu, right?"
"Kung Fu? That thing is outdated. What you are about to see are more efficient techniques."
Before he finished his words, the man had already dodged to a meter away from Gu Yun. He raised his left arm to block in front of himself and swung his right fist through the air.
Everything happened in a flash.
Knocking out the opponent with one blow, leaving no room for reaction, is the combat quality accumulated from countless battles.
"Bang——"
A muffled sound.
“That’s the difference in magnitude.”
Anyone with common sense would understand that a heavyweight fighter has an overwhelming advantage over a lightweight fighter. If he were Gu Yun, he would never allow someone who is a head taller and a whole circle stronger than him to come in front of him. In this way, even the last bit of advantage of flexibility would be lost.
The man retracted his right fist and said, "In pursuit of excitement, the Foundation once set up four unregulated fighting competitions, and I was one of them..."
And I am in it...
but me……
I……
Who was it?
The man leaned against the wall, his face up, staring at the blue sky and white clouds in a trance.
The wall behind him collapsed with a loud bang.
This is where?
What am I doing here?
He turned his head to look at the remains of the wall and fell into deep confusion.
"You are quite capable indeed."
Seeing this, Gu Yun was overjoyed.
He was hit head-on but still managed to maintain consciousness and did not look like he was seriously injured. At least in terms of resistance to blows, the opponent was several levels higher than the masters he had encountered before.
More importantly, this man didn't seem to have any intention of calling the police!
"You are different from those fake masters, come and have a good fight!"
