Transmigration: Experiencing Life's End - Dying Peacefully in One's Sleep

Chapter 511 Sand Sea 5

Several hours later, the people who went down came out, but there were a few fewer of them than before.

The person hired by Boss Ma was named Su Nan. Some of her subordinates were still down there and hadn't returned, so she sent people down again to search for them.

When Wu Xie came up, he paused for a moment when he saw Zhang Chuzhen sitting on the side resting.

He was somewhat surprised that this person hadn't gone down with him, and planned to ask Hei Xiazi about the situation later.

As early as when Zhang Chuzhen appeared, he had Hei Xiazi investigate Xiao Hua, and there should be results later.

Over here, Fu Mei saw Lulu, who was dressed provocatively and walking around, and couldn't help but say with disgust, "So shameless."

Guozi immediately grabbed her: "Hey, Fu Mei, why are you swearing? Keep your voice down!"

"What's wrong with me saying a few words to her? That's just how she is, and I can't even say anything about it?"

Lulu had already passed by them, but upon hearing her words, she turned back: "Sister, I'm thirsty, can I have some of your water?"

Guozi was a little embarrassed, but simply nodded and said, "Okay, sure."

Zhang Chuzhen, who had been sitting in a daze, perked up a bit after hearing this. She propped her head up with her hand and watched listlessly.

Lulu picked up a bottle of mineral water, opened it, and poured it directly over Fu Mei's head, giving her a thorough soaking.

"Are you sick, Yang Honglu?" Fu Mei shouted angrily.

Lulu walked away smugly, ignoring her incompetent barking. People with foul mouths need to be dealt with directly.

Guozi quickly comforted Fu Mei, and Zhang Chuzhen also felt that she deserved it; the one who started it was despicable.

As darkness fell, she sat for the entire afternoon, only standing up and moving around after eating something.

Just as she stepped out of the crowd, intending to find a place to go into her spatial dimension, she clearly heard the breathing and footsteps of the person behind her getting closer and closer.

It might be difficult for most people to notice without careful listening, but she could still hear that faint sound.

A moment later, a gust of wind rushed towards her. Zhang Chuzhen turned her head to dodge it, and then she delivered a side kick with her back leg.

Because of the close proximity, the people behind her couldn't dodge in time and could only raise their hands to block.

Although his arm absorbed the force of her kick, he was still knocked back a few steps.

Zhang Chuzhen turned around and continued her attack, kicking the man alternately with both legs. She wasn't surprised when she saw that the man was Hei Xiazi.

He dodged very quickly, even trying to grab her ankle midway, but Zhang Chuzhen dodged him every time.

Hei Xiazi found himself under attack without even a chance to catch his breath, let alone retaliate.

He then realized that this person was more skilled than him, and he felt a sense of novelty, as no one, except for the mute, had ever made him fail.

Since he couldn't win the fight, he started to cheat and shift the blame: "Hey, little girl, why did you hit me without saying a word?"

Zhang Chuzhen didn't say anything. She increased the speed of her attack again and soon kicked his arm that was blocking.

She used the momentum to lift her entire body into the air, flipped in mid-air, kicked him in the chest, and then landed steadily on her own.

Black Bear was kicked and almost fell over, but he managed to steady himself and stand up.

He raised his hand and touched the spot on his chest where he had been kicked. The pain from the slight inhalation told him that the force of the kick was considerable.

"Ouch~ I'm not fighting anymore, I'm not fighting anymore. You little girl, you're really ruthless. You have to pay my medical bills."

"Who started it?" Zhang Chuzhen asked calmly.

"I was just joking with you, why did you take it seriously?"

"Oh, I was just kidding." With that, she turned and left.

Hei Xiazi was initially taken aback by her words, but then he found the girl quite interesting.

So he followed again: "Don't go yet, tell me how you're so amazing at such a young age?"

Not getting a reply, he continued, "Why don't you teach me? That way I won't hold it against you for kicking me."

Zhang Chuzhen suddenly stopped, and Hei Xiazi also braked sharply.

"How about it? Are you willing to teach...?"

Before she could finish speaking, she stretched out a hand, palm up.

Looking at the fair, slender, and smooth hands in front of him, Hei Xiazi's eyes behind his sunglasses lingered for a few more moments.

He felt these hands didn't look like those of someone who practiced martial arts for years; there wasn't a single callus on them: "Is this someone going to teach me step by step? That doesn't seem right, does it?"

"Give me the money," Zhang Chuzhen said.

Black Bear was a little confused. His black sunglasses reflected the light in the darkness: "What money?"

"Compensation for emotional distress."

"Why? Don't try to rip me off." Black Bear instinctively reached out and covered his pocket.

"You're too noisy!" The subtext is that you've disturbed her and she has to pay you back.

It doesn't matter what he says about being noisy; as long as money is mentioned, it will cross Hei Xiazi's bottom line.

He took a step back, the smile on his lips fading: "I have no money."

"Either pay me or leave and don't follow me." Zhang Chuzhen continued walking, ignoring him.

Watching her walk away, Hei Xiazi hesitated for a moment, but ultimately decided not to follow her; he couldn't bear to part with the money.

It wasn't surprising that Zhang Chuzhen noticed the person wasn't following after he walked away, given how much he loved money.

During the fight, this guy tried to touch her bones to determine her age through bone age, but she managed to dodge it.

He then began to probe her about where she learned her martial arts. He probably suspected, like Wu Xie, that he was either a member of the Zhang family or the Wang family.

She found a place to go into the space to wash up and take a shower, and changed into the same set of clothes before going out.

Hei Xiazi went back to find Wu Xie, and the two talked in a secluded place.

Wu Xie lit a cigarette and looked at the dark desert in the distance: "How is it?"

Black Bear took the lighter, lit one for himself, took a slow puff and exhaled a smoke ring: "I can't win, I haven't touched the bone, and I can't probe it."

Wu Xie was somewhat surprised: "Even you are no match for me? Then it seems I was right after all."

After he finished his cigarette, his voice a little hoarse, he spoke again: "Do you think it's someone from the Zhang family?"

With a cigarette dangling from his lips, Hei Xiazi was reluctant to speak. He took the cigarette away with his hand and said, "I feel his skills are about the same as the mute's, maybe even better, but let's wait and see, it's not certain yet."

Wu Xie was silent for a while: "Have you found anything about Xiao Hua?"

"We haven't received a reply yet, but the harder it is to find out, the more unusual it is."

"This skill level is extraordinary," Wu Xie thought to himself. How many people could be as skilled as Xiao Ge?

Hei Xiazi: "I'll take a look at these people and find another opportunity to see if she has any tattoos."

Even though I can't beat them and don't want to get ripped off, there's always a way, right?

“Yes, my plan can’t go wrong,” Wu Xie nodded.

"Someone come quick, someone bring the first-aid kit!"

Hearing the noise outside, everyone came out of the tent to see what had happened.
