Zhao Yao’s eyebrow shot up as he looked towards the source of the commotion. Instinctively, he instructed, “Roly Poly, turn yourself and the cat bag invisible.”
At the same time, Zhao Yao angled his head towards the opening of the cat bag before vomiting a supercat from his belly into it.
Ares suddenly found himself being squashed in cat bag with Roly Poly’s fats squeezing against his cheeks.
Ares simmered with anger and shouted, “Zhao Yao! What’s wrong with you? Why did you have to call me out at this time? Don’t you know how busy I am?”
Zhao Yao noticed the strands of snow white fur dangling from the corner of his lips and answered nonchalantly “Weren’t you just trying to take advantage of Catherine while she was resting? Alright, just help me out this time around and I’ll reward you with more computer games.”
Ares’s screams turned into cries as he continued, “But I wanna f*ck Catherine! I don’t want any of your stupid computer games!”
Zhao Yao listened to Ares’s complaints before shaking his head in despair, “That is the problem with you virgins. All you have inside your head is your stupid bitches. How can a female cat ever compare with a computer game? You can play the games for hours but can you do the same to a bitch? Let me share with you the sad truth. At the end of the day, you will realize that computer games are still your best companion.”
Naturally, Ares did not believe a single word Zhao Yao uttered. Daggers continued shooting out of his eyes as he stared at Zhao Yao viscously. Sensing that any struggles were simply futile, Ares finally stopped before whispering, “Scumbag.”
Meanwhile, Roly Poly was trying his best to conceal his smile, “I didn’t expect this horny cat to be fantasizing about Catherine. I guess it’s time to inform my father-in-law.” He then proceeded to turn the cat bag, Ares and himself invisible.
Zhao Yao slid Ares a glance before instructing, “Envelop us within your deflective field. Remember, you must use it to repel superpowers.”
Other than repelling physical objects, Ares had long acquired the ability to repel superpower since his time with Ho Hao Cang, which explained how he deflected Elizabeth’s illusion.
This ability would serve as Zhao Yao’s primary line of defense as he entered Chuan Xiao District, preventing any sneak attacks.
With everything all ready, Zhao Yao approached the suspicious vehicle, brimming with confidence.
What he saw when he reached the truck appalled him. A middle-aged man was lying motionlessly in a puddle of blood. Beside him stood a little girl who was screaming at the top of her voice as beads of tears rolled down her cheeks. A lady wrapped her arms around the driver’s calf as she screamed, “Do not leave! Don’t even try to leave! We still have to support our elderly parents and three-year-old child! You killed our family’s sole breadwinner! How could you!”
Just when Zhao Yao thought that this was just another horrific traffic accident, the driver spoke, “Hey, do not worry. I can save your husband.”
“You liar! Just take a look at him! He is not even breathing! How do you plan to save him!”
“Do not worry. I have specially brought a bottle of magical water all the way from my hometown. This water was incorporated with the essence of Earth and the elixir of life. By brewing it for 10,000 consecutive days, it can achieve miracles. I heard that it has even won the Nobel Prize.” As he spoke, he whipped out the tiny bottle from his pocket before dangling it in her eyes, “I’m telling you, just one drop can revive the dead from the underworld.”
“Really?”
“Of course it’s real! Do you know Wang Jin from the neighboring district? A month ago, he was fatally wounded by a series of stabs puncturing his vitals. However, one drop of this miracle water revived him instantly. He could even enjoy some good time with his wife later that night …”
“Then what are you waiting for? Quickly use it on my husband!”
The driver carefully bent forward before cautiously pouring a drop of miracle water into his mouth. The man sprang to his feet the moment the water touched his lips. He even began to jump up and down as he screamed, “I’m fine! I’m alive! I’m alive!”
Zhao Yao had already noticed the slight movements of his chest when he was ‘dead’. His acute sense of smell had already detected the ketchup in the ‘blood’. All this time, the four of them would constantly slid Zhao Yao a glance to see his response. Zhao Yao knew something was amiss and quickly left the place.
With his keen sense of awareness, he noticed the couple and the driver hot on his heels as he made his escape. They continued to sing praises, “This miracle water is truly divine! It can even save a dead man from hell!”
“Where can I buy this miracle water?”
“Today is your lucky day. Actually, I bought this bottle to save my father-in-law. However, its effects will wear off within three days the moment it is opened. I will go ask for another bottle. Hmph, as for this bottle, I’ll just sell it to you at a cheaper price.”
Zhao Yao quickened his pace in an attempt to shake off his stalkers. The woman’s brisk walk turned into a jog before culminating in a run as her chest rose and fell with rapid breaths, “How much are you charging that bottle for?”
“500!” The driver was also gasping for breath as he exclaimed, “500 is the cheapest price you’ll ever find.”
However, Zhao Yao’s plan succeeded as he managed to shake those irksome individuals off. The three of them finally gave up as they struggled to catch their breath, “How is he so fast?”
The woman cocked her head around and noticed the small girl licking the squashed tomatoes off the ground and scolded her, “What the hell are you doing? Get up! Now! Do you know how much these tomatoes cost?”
The man, acting as the ‘dead’ husband, stared at his palms and muttered, “Why wasn’t he tricked? My performance was already Oscar-worthy.”
“There’s something wrong with his head. We shall just wait for the next target. As long as we managed to raise the RMB 5,000, Old Cat will take us in as disciples!”
Suddenly, Zhao Yao noticed a man drenched in ketchup charging from the corner of his eyes. He sprinted towards Zhao Yao with his finger pointing at a bag lying in front of Zhao Yao, “Water … help … help me …”
Zoom! Zhao Yao took a step forward before vanishing into thin air.
“D*mn it, what’s wrong with all these people?” Zhao Yao’s eyebrows were tightly knitted together as he mumbled, “Didn’t they say that the apostles were captured the moment they enter this place? Don’t tell me they were cheated of all their money and were forced to scam others? But that doesn’t make sense. Their acting was so bad.”
Zhao Yao’s journey towards Chuan Xiao District was a tumultuous one. He had to evade a suicidal man, a beggar and even a lunatic.
Finally, he had reached the peak of the hill as his eyes descended on the rows of houses below which looked like tiny Lego bricks, “This place seems rather busy. There must be quite a sizable population living here.”
With a great leap, Zhao Yao had sprung from the top of the hill before slowly descending at the entrance of the district. With a radiant smile plastered on his face, he began making his way into the district without a shred of fear or worry.
The moment he set foot inside his objective, he immediately noticed a little girl tripped by the uneven road as she came crashing to the ground.
Instinctively, Zhao Yao sped forward and cushioned her fall. The little girl reciprocated Zhao Yao’s kind gesture with a wide grin and said,” Thanks!”
Her innocent and bright smile caused Zhao Yao to let his guard down, “This looks like a rather ordinary district. I guess a child’s heart can never be tainted by this vile world. Maybe, I should try getting some information from her.”
At the next moment, the young girl grabbed a bottle of water from her bag before thrusting it to Zhao Yao, “Big Brother, thank you for helping me!”
Zhao Yao noticed the two words – Miracle Water – printed on the bottle. This was the exact item everyone was trying to sell to him. Zhao Yao let out a sigh of despair before releasing the girl from his grip. The little girl only noticed a shadow flashed across her eyes before she found herself back in her original position. She looked to the left and right with a face of confusion.
Meanwhile, Zhao Yao had already reached the center of the district. He soon realized that he wasn’t the only foreigner here. He noticed many ordinary people prying for news regarding the supposed miracle water.
However, the villagers slid him an extremely weird expression…
With his forehead creased together, Zhao Yao muttered, “Why does this expression seem so familiar? It’s such a perverted look.”
Roly Poly curled his lips in disgust and whispered to himself, “That’s the look that you give others when you look at them.”
