598: Finding Ming Xi and Little Bun
How difficult was it to find a little baby in a place like Sin city? Feng Wu stayed in the small hotel for several days but hadn’t seen a shadow or heard a whisper of her little baby.
Rui Baby was thinking where Little Bun could be hidden. They came to rescue Little Bun so they couldn’t return emptyhanded.
After three days, another letter arrived telling Feng Wu to go directly to the black market.
Feng Wu obediently did as told and drank the wine prepared for her in a certain restaurant. Not long after drinking the wine, a few wretched looking men came in. They took their clothes off as they walked, all of them bursting with laughter. It was obvious they were thinking filthy thoughts.
They expected Feng Wu to be docile after drinking the wine. But they were in for a surprise. Not only was she fine, but she was alert and stood up easily when they entered. She became a killing god and killed all of them, only leaving two for questioning.
After the two people answered Rui Baby’s questions, Feng Wu sent them of to hell. She walked breezily out of the black market restaurant easily.
“Xiao Wu, we can’t go on like this anymore. It looks like the person who kidnapped Xiao Ye is not ready to return him to you. It looks like they want to use Xiao Ye to destroy you.
If Xiao Chun wasn’t protecting your body from all the posions, I’m afraid no matter how strong you are, you would have fallen victim to them already,” said Rui Baby unhappily.
Obviously, anyone who was led around by the nose wouldn’t be happy.
“But where do we find Xiao Ye?” Lydia rubbed her chin, thinking hard.
“That’s a good question. It’s not easy to find a child in such a big city like this. We have to find another way.” Rui Baby said.
Probably because they had been schemed against twice already, Feng Wu, Rui Baby and Lydia decided it was best to search for Little Bun themselves.
They didn’t find news about Little Bun, but did find news about something useful. There was a master in Sin city who collected babies. His name was Master Uris.
Apparently, Master Uris was injured in a fight and the injuries he sustained couldn’t be healed through ordinary methods, so now he was looking to use forbidden magic. By sacrificing the flesh and blood of a hundred babies and using them as his own, he could return his body back to its peak.
Sacrificing a hundred babies wouldn’t be hard in any other city, but considering it was Sin city, it how rare it was for babies to survive; getting a hundred would be difficult. At most there were twenty babies. It would be impossible to make up the rest.
In order to heal his injuries, Master Uris posted a job on the black market for babies. The reward was mediocre but that was because kidnapping babies was easy. Any one could steal a baby.
Such a simple task was welcomed by ordinary workers in the black market.
A pervert who collected babies. . . this person was definitely suspicious. Could Little Bun be in his hands?
To test the theory out, they would have to go to Master Uris’s house and see the kidnapped children for themselves.
It was easier said than done however. They were too conspicuous. Who knew how many people in the city were secretly keeping watching on Feng Wu? Someone might come out to attack her just be them approaching.
In the end, they decided to have Lydia, a spirit, do it.
Lydia obediently ran to Master Uris’s house, did some snooping, and returned several hours later.
“How did it go?” Rui Baby asked as soon as Lydia came back.
“Xiao Ye is really there. But he looks like. . . ” Lydia wasn’t sure how to say it.
“Could it be Xiao Ye was mistreated and is hurt?!” Rui Baby yelled in disbelief.
It was impossible though. Xiao Ye was the reincarnation of the elf king and with his hidden abilities, there was no way someoen could take advantage of him!
Feng Wu also looked all Lydia. Although she didn’t think anything would happen to her baby, as a mother, Feng Wu instinctively worried.
Lydia violently shook her head. “No, no, in fact, it’s just the opposite. I saw Xiao Ye being treated very well at Uris’s place. They treat him like he’s a treasure. If he wanted the stars and moon, I’m sure they would try to get it for him. His treatment is better than all the other babies combined.
But, it’s just strange. Uris’s attitude, the way he looks at Xiao Ye is not normal.”
Uris’s attitude toward Xiao Ye at the time was definitely good. If she didn’t know better, she would have thought he was Xiao Ye’s father. Especially they way he looked at Xiao Ye, all excited and crazy. It gave her the heebie jeebies just seeing it.
After asking what happened, Feng Wu decided to find an opportunity to enter to Uris’s house and check in on Xiao Ye.
Lydia said, “There is one more thing I forgot to mention just now. I saw Ming Xi, Jier and Ink. They’re all inside Sin city. And they were asking about you.”
It was an accidental discovery on Lydia’s part. After the three of them entered Sin city, they had stayed in the room and rarely went out, so they had no idea that the second day they were there, the boys had entered and were asking about Feng Wu.
Feng Wu had stayed in her room every day, so that was why they couldn’t find news about her even after so many days.
Probably because Feng Wu was such a force to be reckoned with, no one dared tell the boys about Feng Wu.
“You mean Ming Xi and the others are here?!” Both Rui Baby and Feng Wu’s eyes lit up at the same time.
“That’s great! Things will be much easier now! Go to Ming Xi right now and have him sneak into Uris’s place and have him get Xiao Ye out.” Rui Baby fluttered excitedly around Lydia.
There were so many people keeping an eye on Feng Wu; they couldn’t make a move even if they wanted to. If they weren’t careful, they would be caught by those outside just waiting for an opportunity. But Ming Xi and those other guys were different. Even if people attacked them, after showing their strength, those willing to keep attacking wouldn’t be many. Letting Ming Xi and the others go was for the best.
Rui Baby had Feng Wu write a letter to the boys so they would know what to do.
The boys only they knew for certain was that Feng Wu had entered Sin city some number of days ago. Where she went and what she did after that, they had no idea. The boys were understandable anxious, and growing more so as the days passed without news. They wondered every day if something happened to Feng Wu.
She was so simple minded. Had she been tricked. . . or worse?
“Come and see! It’s a letter from Xiao Wu!” Jier called out.
Ming Xi and Ink immediately gathered round. From the tone and content of the letter, they were sure it was Feng Wu. But how did she know they were there? And since she knew, why send a letter instead of coming directly to them?
“Could it be Lydia delivered this? Why didn’t she materialize so we could see her?” Ink scratched his head.
“It should be because of the spirit purification array in the city.” Ming Xi explained that the powers that be in Sin city had created an array targeting spirits so that as long as someone died in Sin city, their spirits would be forcibly purified and sent away.
In this way, there were no ghosts in Sin city. Even if there was one, it never lingered for more than a quarter of an hour before the array purified it.
