There is only one word difference between Niuwei Alley and Niujiao Alley, but their fame and status are worlds apart.
Niujiao Alley is located near the Twin Castles and is the core area of this large underground city, where every inch of land is valuable.
Moreover, most of the people who open shops in Niujiao Alley are wizards. They are powerful and noble. They sell valuable witchcraft tools, talismans, and potions. No ordinary people dare to set foot in them.
In comparison, Niuwei Lane is unknown, and only some residents of the West District know about it.
Nile West District is also known as the lower city, and Niuwei Alley is in a remote location in the lower city. The surrounding buildings and environment are the worst in the entire underground city.
“It stinks so much in here!”
Huang Ying covered her nose and said to Gao Jing: "If I had known, I wouldn't have come!"
As she spoke, this beautiful lady of heaven wiped the mud on her shoes in disgust.
Today, she changed into a hunting outfit commonly worn by adventurers, wearing a leather hat and a short knife. After simple makeup, her beautiful face became much more ordinary.
This is Gao Jing's request.
Huang Ying was already very dissatisfied with this, and now she is even more irritable.
I felt that it was a very big mistake for me to follow Master's instructions and track down Wu San's whereabouts with Gao Jing.
Where has this royal lady ever been to a place like this?
Looking at the ragged and dirty poor people around her, she felt uncomfortable all over!
"Then you can go back."
Gao Jing replied calmly: "I won't stop you."
Huang Ying was immediately speechless.
Huang Ying was not interested in this task at all, but Huo Gan told her that if she did not agree, the master-disciple relationship between the two parties would be ended, and there would be no further relations.
Of course, this legendary strong man will no longer resist the pressure from the Huang family and the Wu family and continue to provide protection for her!
Although Huang Ying is arrogant and willful, she also knows how important her identity as a disciple of Huo Gan is to her.
Without this identity, although she is still the beloved daughter of the family, she will never have her current status.
As a woman in the family, Huang Ying must obey the family's marriage arrangements.
She had disturbed the marriage with the Wu family before. Not only was the Wu family extremely angry, there was also a lot of criticism and dissatisfaction within the Huang family.
Huang Ying relied entirely on Huo Gan's protection to avoid being held accountable.
Otherwise, it is not impossible to be forced to marry Wuhu.
Under such circumstances, even though she was deeply saddened by Huo Gan's "unfeeling", Huang Ying did not dare to leave Gao Jing and run back alone, putting herself in the worst possible situation.
In comparison, the putrid smell in the air and the garbage and mud on the ground are not so unbearable.
She turned her head away angrily, not looking at Gao Jing.
This is Miss Huang's last resistance.
It’s really…
Gao Jing shook his head and continued walking into Niuwei Alley.
Huang Ying followed him reluctantly.
Bang bang bang!
After taking a few steps, Gao Jing saw a few men who looked like street gangsters banging on the door of a house in front of him, banging the thin door panel loudly.
"Damn old woman, get out of here!"
"I know you are inside, don't even think about running away!"
"Damn girl, you dare to steal my uncle's things. I have to sell you to Jiguan today!"
"Come out here quickly!"
"Ahem!"
Gao Jing saw that these guys were not kind-hearted and were about to smash the door of this house, so he stepped forward and coughed twice.
His voice was not loud, but in the ears of these gangsters, it sounded like thunder.
Everyone was stunned.
After a while, a scar-faced gangster turned around, surprised and angry: "What are you doing?"
It's scary. He was really scared just now.
Gao Jing smiled and asked, "Do you know where Taj Mahal lives?"
Several gangsters couldn't help but look at each other, and one of them asked cautiously: "What are you looking for her for?"
Gao Jing's tall figure and majestic appearance make him look like an ordinary person at first glance.
These gangsters still had some winks, and even though they were very annoyed, they did not dare to cause trouble for Gao Jing easily until they found out Gao Jing's true identity.
"This is her home, right?"
Gao Jing understood as soon as he saw the expressions on the other party's and others' faces. He pointed at the wooden door and said, "You can go."
The scar-faced gangster just now became furious: "Who do you think you are... ugh!"
Before he finished speaking, his companion next to him tightly covered his mouth and hugged his arm tightly.
"We're leaving now."
Another gangster in gray clothes bowed to Gao Jing and explained: "Sir, it's not that we deliberately caused trouble for Taj Mahal, but her granddaughter stole our money, and we are here to reason with her."
The scar-faced gangster has a bad temper and a low IQ. They are different.
Although I don’t know the origin of Gao Jing’s identity, my intuition tells this gangster not to provoke him!
He said that he was here to reason, and he estimated that the surrounding residents would laugh out loud when they heard this.
Gao Jing threw out two shell coins: "Go away."
"Thank you, sir, for your generous gift!"
The gangster in gray was overjoyed and quickly picked up the shell coins from the ground and winked at his companion.
Several people surrounded the angry scar-faced gangster and quickly disappeared into the alley.
"What do you have to say to these scum?"
Huang Ying, who had been following Gao Jing, said disdainfully: "Give them their money."
With this eldest lady's temper, it would be a sign of God's grace not to kill them on the spot when meeting these scoundrels.
Huang Ying felt that Gao Jing was too soft-hearted and too talkative!
Gao Jing glanced at her, too lazy to explain anything.
At least 70% to 80% of what the gray-clothed gangster said just now is true. Since the other party knows the truth, why would he bother to go to war?
Although it only takes one finger to kill these guys.
Squeak~
Just when Gao Jing was about to knock on the door, the originally closed wooden door suddenly opened from the inside.
A little head popped out and asked: "Are you looking for my grandma?"
Gao Jing was stunned for a moment and then understood.
This little guy of seven or eight years old had obviously been peeking through the crack in the door and heard his conversation with the gangsters.
Courageous enough.
The little guy is a girl. She has unkempt hair and a pointed chin. The clothes she wears are very shabby. She looks a little malnourished. Her cheeks are sunken and her eyes look very big.
Gao Ding nodded and asked, "What's your name?"
"My name is Sansi."
The little girl swallowed and said, "I, I just stole a few copper coins from them."
When she saw Gao Jing throwing two shells to those gangsters, she felt really distressed beyond measure!
Gao Jing asked softly: "Then why did you steal their money?"
The little girl looked at Gao Jing blankly, and suddenly shed tears: "My, my grandma is about to die."
She suddenly knelt down in front of Gao Jing and begged: "Sir, please save my grandma!"
