Immortality Cultivation Era

Chapter 748 Why Do You Bother to Leave?

Although it is a rare beast at the realm of Qi-condensing, it has actually been quite human. It stays with Cai all the time and gazes at Gao Ge and Xie Zhuolian, seeming to view them as the enemies who will hurt Cai.

Amused by the dog, Gao Ge walks to it and touches its head.

“Hei, you mustn’t bite people!” Cai tells the dog. It seems that she knows that Hei is not good-tempered.

Hei was a bit alerted but when Gao Ge puts his hand on its head, its eyes are full of surprise and then it lies on the ground comfortably.

If it can speak, it must say to Gao Ge at the moment, “Don’t stop. Keep doing it...”

Gao Ge is amused.

“You like this, do you?”

His power of stars is good stuff. It is kind of a lucky chance for the black dog to have some power of stars now.

“Gee!” Cai looks at Gao Ge in disbelief with her eyes wide open, “Wow, how did you make it?”

“Haha. What’s wrong?” Gao Ge asks.

Cai says grinningly, “Hei is really awesome. Many villagers are afraid of it!”

“Why are they afraid of it? It is not scary,” Xie Zhuolian says curiously.

“Well, but it bites people and also chases after them. It is really fierce,” Cai says, “The two kids in the house next door have been bitten by it. As a result, the villagers wanted to beat it to death but I stopped them. They seemed to show sympathy for me so they didn’t pursue the matter.”

Gao Ge nods his head and really can’t tell this obedient black dog is that fierce.

However, he finds that Hei is shaking its head at him.

It seems to be saying that what Cai said was not the truth.

“Why did it bite those people?” Gao Ge asks.

“I don’t know.” Cai shakes her head.

Hei lying on the ground suddenly barks, which sounds somewhat angry.

At the moment, Cai continues saying, “Nevertheless, the people bitten by Hei have one thing in common.”

“What is it?”

“They are all men!”

“They are all men?” Gao Ge chuckles and lowers his head to say to Hei, “Are you a female dog?”

Hei is speechless.

Cai hastens to explain, “No, Hei is a male dog. And I don’t raise female dogs.”

“Why?”

“Because female dogs will give birth to puppies. I’m afraid that I cannot raise them well,” Cai says in a low voice.

Gao Ge nods his head and feels complicated. He believes that if possible, Cai must also want to raise a female dog and then let the dog give birth to a flock of puppies.

However, it is even not easy for Cai to support herself, let alone raise a flock of puppies.

For the kids around her age, it may be unimaginable but it is really happening to Cai.

It must be really unbelievable for those kids living in the big cities that when they are bidding for the expensive sneakers that may cost a few thousand, there are kids as old as them who dare not raise a female dog just because they cannot even afford a meal for themselves. Of course, there is nothing wrong with those kids in the big cities spending their money. After all, the money is their parents’. Whether he himself is rich or not, Gao Ge won’t resent the rich. He just finds it quite funny that a group of kids not even knowing who Jordon is should advocate the culture of sneakers and spend a few thousand on a pair of sneakers.

Looking at Cai’s dejected facial expression, Xie Zhuolian feels so sorry for her and then strokes her head, saying gently, “Everything will be okay.”

“That’s what I believe.” Cai composes herself quickly. After hearing Xie Zhuolian’s words, she wears a smile again. When she smiles, she shows two dimples on her face.

Following Xie Zhuolian, Cai goes back to the room and sleeps.

Zhang Jian knocks on Gao Ge’s door.

“What’s wrong?” Seeing Zhang Jian standing at the door and rubbing his hands, Gao Ge asks with a smile.

A man who doesn’t like talking or simply is not good with words may not be annoying.

Zhang Jian is a good example.

He really wants to chat with Gao Ge but evidently, he doesn’t talk much simply because of his character but not because he has a bias against Gao Ge.

It is fair enough to say that Zhang Jian is down-to-earth.

“Ahem. Mr. Gao, I have a few words to say to you,” Zhang Jian says.

“Come in.”

Gao Ge lets Zhang Jian in and pours a glass of water for the latter. There is no tea in his room so what they can drink is common boiled water.

After sitting down, Zhang Jian lights up a cigarette and then passes one to Gao Ge too.

The two men are smoking.

“Cai is a poor girl indeed.”

Gao Ge is a bit confused.

He didn’t expect that Zhang Jian should come here to talk about this with him.

“Do you know why the black dog only bites men?” Zhang Jian says in a deep voice.

Gao Ge laughs, “You know that?”

Zhang Jian nods his head, “Cai is a little girl. Well, she is 14 or 15 years old, making her a young girl. Yet, it is thanks to the black dog that she can stay safe in the village. Otherwise, how can the men in the fishing village really be that mannered?”

Gao Ge nods with a bitter smile.

Actually, when Cai talked about it with him, he has had such a guess.

Yet, he only feels that he should always look on the bright side.

If his guess is right, there will be a deep sense of despair.

Cai will feel despairing. So will he.

“When we just lived here, someone climbed over the wall and broken into the yard but he was scared away by Hei,” Zhang Jian says, “I wanted to run after him but on second thought, I gave it up. I thought it was fine that he had left. If we make a fuss about it, the people of the Ghost Sect may be alarmed. Besides, when our mission is over, we can leave this place. However, when we leave, Cai will still stay here. Hence, it is not that we don’t want to do anything but that we can’t do anything.”

Zhang Jian sounds deeply helpless when he says that.

When Gao Ge wants to say something, Hei in the yard suddenly snarls hysterically.

“What’s wrong?”

Zhang Jian shakes his head to indicate that he has no idea.

With a frown, Gao Ge stands up, throws the cigarette butt to the ground, steps on it and then walks out.

He opens the door and sees Hei barking in the yard. A black figure was sitting on the wall.

With two thuds, the black figure on the wall seems to have thrown something before Hei.

“Who is there?” Gao Ge shouts.

Upon hearing Gao Ge’s voice, the black figure wants to leave as soon as possible but Gao Ge has rushed forward and with a bound, he has jumped over the wall and landed a punch on the figure.

“Argh!” With a scream, that figure falls to the ground.

“Since you are here, why do you bother to leave?” Gao Ge sneers, carries him with one hand and returns to the yard.

The yard is ablaze with light soon.
