Crossing 70: Fish in the Pond Have Good News

Chapter 294 Women

Jiang Yu's flashlight shone into the dark cellar, and the light shone far away. It seemed that the cellar was dug very long.

She walked forward with a machete in her hand, and rats were running past her feet.

The breathing sound was not far away, and Jiang Yu quickly found the exact location.

The firewood was scattered all over the ground in a mess. An earth wall with a hole at the top stood between Jiang Yu and the man. She raised her hand and shone the flashlight on the firewood and began to look for how to open the door.

Jiang Yu collected all the firewood into the space, revealing an open space with a slot at each end of the earth wall to fix it.

Such a simple device certainly could not stump Jiang Yu. She dismantled the device with her bare hands, then took out a piece of firewood and scratched it there, making it look like it was destroyed.

Jiang Yu opened the mud wall, which was actually made of straw and mud, and looked inside with a flashlight. It was a woman? She looked at the slightly undulating figure, with a slightly bulging chest, a slender waist, messy hair covering her face, and tattered clothes with various scars and blood scabs.

"What? Come and see if I'm dead?" the woman suddenly spoke.

Jiang Yu thought she was asleep, after all, her breathing was so weak.

"I'm dying, don't worry." The woman didn't hear the reply from the other side, but she didn't care and soon spoke again weakly.

The breathing became weaker and weaker. Jiang Yu thought about it and knew that she should not meddle in other people's business. Although the owner of the house was arrested, they must have accomplices. If she was not careful, she might get herself into trouble.

But this woman was dying, and she seemed still quite young. Did she need to end her short life in a place like this?

"If I help you, what can you give me?" Jiang Yu finally chose to help her.

She was a thief who was originally planning to plunder the remaining property in the black market, but in the end she became a good person who saved lives? What a wonderful life experience, indescribable.

The woman opened her eyes in an instant, her gaze was as bright as lightning, she seemed not to be affected by the flashlight at all, the dazzling light did not affect her viewing of the ginger fish at all, perhaps after a long time, the woman smiled, her bright eyes curved into a crescent shape, and her happy laughter continued in her ears.

Jiang Yu was a little impatient, but for some reason, she still stood there and didn't leave.

"If you save me, I can give you tremendous wealth and power, as long as you dare to accept it!" The woman's voice was loud and clear, as if the person who was about to die the moment before was not her. She even sat up, bent her legs and put her thighs together, sitting in a very charming manner. She put her long hair behind her ears with one hand, revealing a stunning face.

Jiang Yu was somewhat surprised at the other person's face. Such a beautiful woman was indeed rare. Even though she was in a mess and covered with injuries, her charm could not be concealed.

But she said she had overwhelming wealth and power. Who was she to be so arrogant?

The woman seemed to see Jiang Yu's distrust, but she just smiled nonchalantly. She opened her red lips and said, "If you knew who I am, you would believe what I say. Good girl, save me once, and I will never let you suffer any loss."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yu frowned. The thought of retreating overcame his kindness in saving a life. This person was more troublesome than those people in the black market.

The woman suddenly scratched her forearm with her long, sharp nails that were as sharp as weapons, and without blinking, she dug out two beads. She took one for herself, and then handed the other blood-stained bead to Jiang Yu, "This is a token of love."

The rich green and blood-stained Buddha head. Jiang Yu looked at the bead that was no bigger than a fingernail and asked her, "Who are you?"

"A poor man who was framed." The woman smiled like a flower.

"If you lie to me, or turn around and deal with me in the future..." Jiang Yu was really worried. She could sense an unsettling aura from the other person. This woman was very dangerous. Although she was not strong and did not have high martial arts skills, this did not prevent her from becoming a terrifying existence.

"You can just come and kill me. But you saved my life, and I will never forget it." The woman put away her smile and tilted her neck calmly, revealing her throat, that fragile and slender part. With Jiang Yu's strength, he could feel it with just a light squeeze.

Jiang Yu lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment, and finally dropped the machete in her hand to her side. She said to her solemnly, "I can save you, but you must promise that you will never do anything that harms my interests and never come to ruin my life. I don't need the wealth and power you mentioned. I will save your life, but after we leave here, we will pretend that we have never met. Unless necessary, I will not look for you, and you should not look for me."

The woman didn't expect that the other party would actually reject her temptation of interests. In this day and age, there are still people who don't value power and wealth? This girl must have never seen the world! Even so, the most important thing for her at the moment is to escape. Those who are guarding her will not appear for the time being. This is her only chance and she must seize it.

"Okay. I, Chen Fufeng, promise you that I will never bring you any trouble. Even if we meet on the street in the future, I will treat you as a stranger. But you keep the bead. If you encounter any trouble in the future and need my help, go to No. 7 Huaihua Hutong, S City, and use this bead to ask for help." The woman raised her hand again and handed the bead in her hand to Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu pursed his lips, his eyes paused for a moment on the bead with the Buddha head carved on it, and finally took it, "Do you want me to take you to the hospital?"

Although the woman tried to cheer herself up and communicated with Jiang Yu as if nothing had happened, Jiang Yu, with his extraordinary five senses, naturally could not ignore her intermittent breathing. She was in very bad condition.

"I can't go to the hospital. Please take me to Willow Alley." The woman supported herself on the ground and tried to stand up gracefully.

Jiang Yu thought about it, went back to her body, found a relatively clean thin blanket from the quilts thrown on the ground, returned to the cellar, and handed it to the woman, "Wrap yourself up, I'll carry you up." Even so, when she turned her back to the woman and bent over, her whole body was still tense and full of vigilance.

The woman was stunned for a moment, and then, where Jiang Yu couldn't see, she raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing an exceptionally gentle smile. She wrapped herself in the quilt, then lay on Jiang Yu and whispered, "Won't you tell me your name?"

"Even if I don't tell you, you will know it." Jiang Yu replied.

If she is really as powerful as she says, then investigating a person is just a matter of words. Why bother to know the answer now?
