I Am Born With A Silver Spoon -
Chapter 680 Something’s Wrong
"Where's that cave?" Chen Hao asked with a solemn gaze.
This world was full of wonders. Just like Li Shuisheng's story of how he got Omniscience, there must be an unthinkable secret in that cave. Chen Hao thought to himself.
If that were really the case, he really couldn't just let this pass. He had to go to the cave and take a look.
"It's in that big mountain. I remember the place. Chen Hao, if you want to go, I'll take you all there later!" Li Shuisheng said.
"Okay, thank you!" Chen Hao nodded.
Li Shuisheng's full name was Li Shuisheng, and his sister's name was Li Shuixia.
Their parents were often outstation, so they usually stayed with their grandfather.
However, their grandfather's body was weak and frail so he required medicinal herbs to keep himself alive.
As they chatted, Li Shuisheng constantly mentioned 'Miss Su', who was someone called Su Ruoxi. Li Shuixia was Su Ruoxi's secretary, and the money that was used to treat their grandfather's illness was all paid by her.
Li Shuisheng had always seen her as their lifesaver.
If Chen Hao guessed correctly, this Su Ruoxi was exactly who he needed to replace. Only by doing this could he explain the vessel's vital spirit that lingered on Li Shuixia.
"Li Shuixia, look who's here!" Li Shuisheng yelled from the front yard.
Soon, Li Shuixia walked out of the house. The front yard was filled with the scent of medicinal herbs.
"Where did you go? Doctor Hu is taking grandpa's pulse, you had better be quiet," Li Shuixia admonished.
As she finished talking, she noticed Chen Hao and Li Ba who were standing behind Li Shuisheng. She was startled. "You..."
The slight terror in Li Shuixia's eyes was pretty obvious.
Even though Chen Hao had saved her life, the ease with which they killed would scare any regular girl.
Just as Chen Hao had guessed, Li Shuixia no longer had any trace of the vital spirit in her.
"Miss Li, we don't have any malintent. I only have something I need your help with. You help me, and I'll help you. How about that?" Chen Hao asked with a smile. "W-what can I possibly help you with?" Li Shuixia pulled her brother to her side.
"From what Li Shuisheng said, the only woman who had any contact with you yesterday was Su Ruoxi, or General Manager Su. I need you to introduce us," Chen Hao said.
"You all are looking for General Manager Su?" Li Shuixia was apprehensive.
Chen Hao just nodded before walking to the medicine jar, which was simmering with medicine.
"This medicine of yours will only treat him for the short term. If your grandfather keeps taking this, first of all, he'll start to become reliant on the medicine; secondly, his body will still continue to deteriorate!" Chen Hao said.
"W-who exactly are you two?"
Clearly, Chen Hao had hit the nail on the head. This caused Li Shuixia's expression to change.
"Li Shuixia, Chen Hao and this uncle are good people! They're also really skilled. They're looking for Miss Su because they need her to help them replace someone. Chen Hao also said that he'll help us make grandfather better!" Li Shuisheng said hurriedly.
"Really?"
"Of course!"
"Li Shuisheng, this is a Revitalizing Pill. Split it into twelve and brew it for your grandfather once every month. After a year, your grandfather's illness will be cured!"
As Chen Hao spoke, he tossed a Revitalizing Pill to Li Shuisheng.
"Don't you need to take Grandpa's pulse?" Li Shuixia asked in surprise.
"I don't have to. Just by looking at his medicine, I can tell what illness he has. We really don't mean any ill will. We just really need General Manager Su's help!" Chen Hao said sincerely.
Li Shuixia struggled internally. However, Chen Hao's modest look made her believe that he wasn't fooling her.
Finally, she nodded. "Okay, I'll introduce you. However, General Manager Su isn't free right now as she's in a meeting. She'll only be free in the afternoon."
Right at that moment, Chen Hao's phone rang with a message.
'Come back quickly, something's wrong!'
This was the message Li Mumu had sent to Chen Hao.
"Huh?"
When Chen Hao saw the message, he felt a little anxious.
What could possibly have happened back at the shanty town?
It seemed like Uncle hadn't returned.
That wouldn't do. He had to go back and check.
Chen Hao lifted his head and looked at Li Shuisheng.
"Li Shuisheng, can you use your ears and listen for anything that might be happening in the shanty town where I came from?" Chen Hao asked.
Li Shuisheng immediately agreed.
He crouched down onto the floor and focused on listening.
"Yes. There seems to be a lot more people at the shanty town, and quite a number of people are gathered at one spot. As for what's happening, I wouldn't know about that!" Li Shuisheng said. Chen Hao frowned and thought about it.
That wasn't good!
They were definitely the Gu family members!
Xin Xin had been injured by Gu Feng, and Gu Feng had been defeated by Uncle.
It seemed like the Gu family would not just let things go like that. They probably discovered his whereabouts.
Immediately, rage flared in Chen Hao's eyes.
"Li Ba, let's go back!"
Back in the shanty town.
Li Shuisheng had sensed correctly.
All of the villagers had gathered on the main street of this shanty town.
The ones who were watching them were team after team of the Gu family's skilled warriors.
Li Mumu was also hard-pressed to escape. She had been captured and brought forward to Gu Feng.
Gu Feng was currently standing with his hands behind his back.
He narrowed his eyes.
"Where is Chen Hao? You'd better come clean. If not, my underlings will start killing people. And this time, that skilled fighter won't be able to save you!" Gu Feng said coldly.
"I don't know who Chen Hao is! You're the motherf*cker who chopped off Xin Xin's arms, aren't you? You monster! How could you do that to a child?" Li Mumu said in a rage. She started cursing wildly at Gu Feng.
When Gu Feng heard this, he just shook his head and scoffed.
"I know you're hiding a master in this shanty town. Maybe you don't feel afraid, but don't think that you're lucky. I already have my ways of defeating that person. This time, I'm not only looking for Chen Hao, I also want to get my revenge on that person! Pretty girl, if you don't want to suffer the same fate as that other girl and get both your arms chopped off, then quickly come clean!" Gu Feng warned once more.
As he spoke, he suddenly reached out and grasped Li Mumu's throat.
"I don't know who Chen Hao is!"
As Li Mumu struggled, she landed blow after blow on Gu Feng.
"Fine! I see how it is. You people won't talk unless we use violence, right? Since that's the case, I'll kill you as a warning to the others!"
Gu Feng's arm flexed slightly as he prepared to snap Li Mumu's neck in one go.
The other fighters of the Gu family also readied themselves to kill.
"Little punk, you're done for!" Suddenly, an ear-shattering noise sliced through the air.
The sound was deafening and arrived before its owner, causing a gust of sand to billow.
Soon after, a small rock shot through the dust that had risen up.
It was aimed directly at Gu Feng's temple.
Gu Feng subconsciously released his grip to dodge it.
Bang!
The stone pierced through the thick trunk of a nearby tree.
Gu Feng stepped back.
His eyebrows knitted together tightly.
"What skill! As expected, this isn't any regular shanty town!" He was so angry that he laughed in glee.
He looked toward the two figures walking toward him.
