Chapter 70: The Four Ugly Monsters
At this moment, Xiao Yun was on his way back to the Fragrant Flower Shop when his phone rang.
Seeing the caller ID was Duan Qingxue, Xiao Yun quickly pressed the answer button, and her voice came through: "Xiao Yun, how's everything at the hospital?"
"It's all taken care of, no problem!" Xiao Yun replied with a smile.
"I just finished dinner with Grandpa; he has gone back. Have you eaten yet?"
"I just finished eating too."
Xiao Yun had indeed eaten. After waking Shen Ruolan, he felt extremely hungry. Upon exiting the hospital, he hurriedly bought a few steamed buns to fill his stomach.
"That's good," Duan Qingxue said. "If you're free this afternoon, I'll wait for you at the entrance of Rose Garden Community. A classmate of mine has already helped arrange the house; the villa is spacious and fully furnished. If you like it, you can pay and move in right away!"
Xiao Yun happily responded, "Great! No wonder you're my girlfriend; you really get things done quickly!"
...
Two days later, at the exit of Galaxy City Airport.
Amidst the bustling crowd, four distinct individuals emerged from the exit, immediately capturing everyone's attention.
These four people were indeed strikingly unusual.
Leading them was a Taoist priest dressed in a gray robe, hunched over with one eye, a white orchid pinned to his head, and a Buddhist pestle cradled in his arms. He had come from Beijing as the Orchid Daoist.
Following closely behind him were three others known as the Sky Valley Trio, whom the Orchid Daoist had invited.
The Sky Valley Trio consisted of brothers: Zheng Da, Zheng Er, and Zheng San. Although their names were quite ordinary, their appearances were remarkable.
Zheng Da looked like a fishing rod—skinny to the bone and towering at least six feet three inches tall. His face resembled a skull with deep-set eyes that glimmered with a green light. Every movement he made caused his bones to creak and crackle as if he might fall apart at any moment.
The second brother looked completely opposite to the eldest; not only was he short, but he was also so fat that it was almost unbelievable. He resembled a ball, and just watching him walk was like watching a rolling ball.
Zheng San was neither fat nor thin, neither tall nor short, but he had only one leg. He leaned on a cane in his cup, had a bald head with a centipede tattooed on top, drooping eyebrows, a flat nose, and a frog-like mouth with drool hanging from the corners.
"Wow, where did these four monsters come from?"
"I think I'm going to faint. Just looking at these four people makes me want to throw up everything I ate yesterday!"
"These aren't humans; they're simply devils!"
People on both sides pointed at the four of them and whispered among themselves.
Bang!
Oh—ah…
Zheng San's cane suddenly shot out like a startled snake, and with a chorus of screams, people on both sides were sent flying several meters away, landing on the ground.
The cane spun in the air twice before flying back into Zheng San's hand.
"What a great Spiral Dragon return!" Zheng Er praised loudly. Then he pushed with both hands, and a gust of wind swept up from the ground, uprooting several trees along the street and crashing them down onto those who had fallen.
"Devils!" A few people in the distance were terrified and pale-faced.
Zheng San clapped his hands and said, "Second brother, your Reverse Dragon Wind is quite impressive too!"
The two brothers were busy praising each other when the eldest spoke in a deep voice: "Stop messing around. We have other business to attend to with Orchid Daoist this time; it's not for you to show off here!"
Clearly, among the three brothers, Zheng Da's words held significant weight, and the other two immediately quieted down.
"Orchid Daoist, we've arrived at Galaxy City. What should we do next?" Zheng Da asked.
Orchid Daoist appeared confident as he replied, "Let's find a place to stay first. When night falls, you will follow my arrangements. Rest assured, once everything is successful, Song the Head of the Family will give each of you ten million!"
Ten million?
That means the three brothers together have thirty million.
Whose life is worth so much money that it allows Song the Head of the Family to spend such a large sum?
After hearing Orchid Daoist's words, Zheng Da felt strangely curious.
"Alright, we came out to seek wealth, so I will follow your arrangements!" Zheng Da said with an expressionless face.
Although Zheng Da was puzzled, years of living in the Ancient Martial Arts Sect had given him a calm demeanor towards everything.
The group arrived at the entrance of the hotel and was about to enter when they were blocked by two doormen who looked like iron towers. One of them said, "Sorry, this place is not suitable for you to stay!"
"Why?" Orchid Daoist asked, momentarily confused by the doorman's meaning, rolling his eyes.
One of the doormen sneered with a dark face, "I'm worried that your appearance will scare away our customers inside!"
Mud Horse, isn't that a direct slap in the face?
"Bastard!"
Zheng Da, who usually had great patience, could no longer hold back his anger. With a swift motion, he threw two fireballs at the two doormen.
Boom!
In an instant, the clothes on the two doormen, as well as their eyebrows and hair, were completely burned off.
"Ah—"
The two naked doormen ran away in fright as if they had seen a ghost during the day.
The four of them directly stormed into the hotel.
"Sir, how many rooms do you need?" In the inn, a waitress glanced at the four people in front of her, her face turning pale with fright as she hurriedly lowered her head and asked in a trembling voice.
She had clearly witnessed the scene at the entrance; how could someone throw fireballs without being a devil?
Moreover, in just a breath's time, the clothes and hair of the two guards had vanished.
The Orchid Daoist said, "We four will stay together; one large dormitory will be fine!"
The large dormitory was the cheapest room in the inn.
"Alright, here are your room cards!" The waitress, though scared, couldn't help but feel a wave of disdain inside.
The Orchid Daoist glanced at the room card and asked, "Why is it on the first floor? Is there no room on the top floor?"
The waitress realized that these four probably had never stayed in an inn before and replied, "Dormitories are generally on the first floor; the top floor has single rooms."
"Then we want the top floor; we only need one single room!"
Only on the top floor would it be convenient for the Orchid Daoist to use the Starlight Mirror to search for those who had taken the Ethereal Stone. They were just stopping by to rest briefly and wouldn't be staying overnight since they had plans for later.
The waitress looked at them with a strange expression but didn't dare to stare for long. However, she was quite puzzled; how could these four ugly individuals fit into a single room?
