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

Chapter 955 The Grave Robbers' Chronicles 43

Xie Yuchen and Gu Wusi both laughed.

"Can rockets be launched? Where can they be launched?" Old Gao asked, not understanding.

I don't know if this old Gao is really stupid or just pretending.

Anyway, there are some problems. I don't know how many of the people that Aning brought were replaced by the Wang family.

Gu Wusi thought that the faster the car drove, the farther they would have to travel to get back.

She went straight to the steering wheel and said, "Drive slower, Lao Gao, or we'll have someone else drive."

I only interfere with the driver's driving if I am certain that nothing will happen.

Old Gao was startled by her movements and actually slowed down a bit.

But the noise didn't last long before it started again outside.

"Stop the car, a sandstorm is coming." Xie Yuchen looked out the window at the wind and picked up the walkie-talkie to speak.

Naturally, no one would listen to him, and Gu Wusi knew that A Ning wouldn't listen to her either, so he didn't say anything.

When the sandstorm gets stronger, everyone will naturally stop the car.

Sure enough, after a while, Ah Ning's voice came over the walkie-talkie telling everyone to stop the car.

"Get out of the car." Hei Xiazi put on his goggles and got out of the car. He first opened the passenger door and led Gu Wusi out.

Gu Wusi simply stood up, holding onto his arm, her clothes and hair flying wildly in the wind.

All I could hear was the sound of wind and sand; if I was far away, I could barely hear people talking.

Black Bear hooked his arm around her shoulder and pushed her between the car and himself to shield her from the wind and sand.

He lowered his voice and whispered in her ear, "How about it? Don't you feel safer with Blackie?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Wusi punched him lightly in the face. "Why are you saying this now?"

Then, I heard his laughter, not even worried about getting sand in his mouth.

Xie Yuchen also came over and naturally blocked her way: "That old Gao, he chased after a book???"

He pointed to the other side, and the two of them looked over and saw Lao Gao running in one direction.

"Never mind him, let's go and meet up with the others first." Gu Wusi pointed to a signal flare being fired in the distance.

"The compass is with Lao Gao."

“It doesn’t look far. You can’t go wrong by following me.” Gu Wusi walked forward.

Seeing this, the two men could only stand on one side of her, and the three of them supported each other as they walked.

Gu Wusi didn't actually need to be helped, but he didn't want to refuse.

Maybe they can't walk steadily and need her to help them?

Um, is that even possible?

After walking for a while, the three of them found A Ning, Wu Xie, and Zhang Qiling.

The six of them found a sheltered spot and could only wait for the others to come looking for them when the sandstorm subsided.

Gu Wusi was drinking water, thinking about how to speed up his journey to the Queen Mother of the West's Palace.

After thinking it over, there's only one way.

Aning only rested for a short while before becoming restless: "Are you all rested enough? We need to go find someone. We must find Dingzhu Zhuoma."

She mainly watched Hei Xiazi and Zhang Qiling talk.

After all, these two people were hired.

Hei Xiazi stood up and discussed with Zhang Qiling that the two of them would split up to find people and vehicles.

Wu Xie was a kind-hearted person and planned to go along as well.

A-Ning was worried and wanted to go with him, but Gu Wusi stopped her.

"Ah Ning, I have something to talk to you about. Let them go find it."

Upon hearing this, A Ning turned around and looked at her with a scrutinizing gaze.

After thinking for a moment, she nodded and said to Wu Xie and the other two, "You go first."

Although the three were curious about what Gu Wusi wanted to talk about, they knew it wasn't the time to ask, so they all left and hurried to look for people in the surrounding area.

Xie Yuchen didn't plan to go looking for anyone; he didn't know what Gu Wusi wanted to do with A Ning at this time.

So when he wasn't told to move away, he didn't move.

Gu Wusi glanced at him, but didn't intend to avoid him.

Ah Ning sat down and asked, "What do you want to talk to me about?"

"I know the route to the Queen Mother of the West's Palace. Are you interested?" Gu Wusi asked directly.

"You know?" Not only was A Ning surprised, but Xie Yuchen was also unsure how she knew.

"Are you just going to say you're interested?"

“I’m interested. What do you want?” Xie Yuchen spoke first, before A Ning could.

He could tell that Gu Wusi bringing this up with A Ning meant she had conditions for a deal.

Of course, I let her set any conditions she wanted, as long as they were available.

Xie Yuchen followed everyone into the desert because he couldn't find his way.

Now that Gu Wusi knows, he no longer needs to waste time following the main group.

Of course, he doesn't mind if everyone speeds up their progress.

Gu Wusi, noticing what A Ning was thinking and not paying attention to her, gave Xie Yuchen a wink.

Tell him not to get involved; she's too embarrassed to take advantage of people she knows.

"We made a promise to Aning before we came out, so don't cause trouble."

Xie Yuchen understood her meaning, smiled, and then remained silent.

After confirming that Gu Wusi was telling the truth, A Ning thought for a moment before asking, "What do you want?"

She had also weighed the pros and cons in her mind, and it was still somewhat inconvenient to deal with Zhuoma.

Putting aside the language barrier, having so many people, including elderly people, is a burden.

This, to some extent, slowed down their progress.

But Gu Wusi is different. She is fully capable of protecting herself, and with her leading the way, the speed of travel can be greatly increased.

Although I don't know her purpose, as long as the result is what I want, that's fine, since I have both backup and main options.

Gu Wusi smiled and said, "Great! You paid for all the other people you hired, just double the price for me, your guide."

"The eldest daughter of the Gu family, would she be short of money?" Ah Ning couldn't understand her; she hadn't expected her to have this request.

As for her exorbitant demand for double the money, she wasn't that concerned.

"Who would complain about having too much money? Besides, I'm just someone who lives off my parents right now. I still have to bring gifts for my family when I go out. I can't just spend money without earning any."

Gu Wusi shrugged and said with a hint of helplessness.

She was only half telling the truth; making money was just a side benefit, speeding things up was the real goal.

As for the inexplicable problems that were exposed, that's not important; no one can do anything about it anyway.

Her greedy appearance made the two of them chuckle.

Ah Ning nodded and agreed: "I'll send you the money when I get back. We'll rest for one night and then set off once the person is found. Is that alright?"

"Of course, no problem."

When Xie Yuchen and A Ning left, he spoke to Gu Wusi: "Just now, you didn't want to make money off me?"

"I feel bad taking advantage of my friend," Gu Wusi said casually.

That's nonsense. When you're really short of money, you should still try to make money off your friends.

"I thought you couldn't bear to trick me," Xie Yuchen said jokingly.

Upon hearing this, Gu Wusi turned to look at him: "That little bit of money is nothing to you, but I won't let my people suffer losses."
