Chapter 207 - 207 That Man Built a Harem
207 That Man Built a Harem
However, it was not filled with mineral water. Instead, it was the cold water that Du Yue had poured in earlier. The packaging on the bottle had long been torn off by her. Du Yue threw the water bottle at Xiang Nan, who caught it. This time, he did not refuse Du Yue’s good intentions. He put the bottle to his mouth and took a sip carefully. He did not drink to his heart’s content in one go.
Du Yue knew that the long-term lack of water made Xiang Nan reluctant to finish it all at once, let alone waste it. After the temperature rose, the ice and snow melted, and the base did not lack water. However, there was no official organization in the city to supply water, and there were no natural conditions like the base, which was surrounded by mountains and water.
Du Yue did not know how Xiang Nan had lived previously, but judging from his attitude toward food and water, she knew he must have suffered a lot. When Xiang Nan heard them mention the base, he did not show any dislike or rejection, so he could live in the base. However, he had been staying in the city and wanted to break into the underground city alone…
Du Yue looked away and rested her head on He Xing’s shoulder. That night, the three of them took turns keeping watch, and nothing happened. When they woke up the next morning, Du Yue and He Xing took the opportunity to wash up when they went to the toilet. It was not that they were stingy and did not want to bring Xiang Nan along with them to wash up. It was just that to Xiang Nan, this kind of good intention would burden him. He could not even bear to finish a bottle of water in one go, so how could they bring him to wash his face and brush his teeth?
In her previous life, Du Yue’s life was not any better than Xiang Nan’s current life, so she could somewhat understand Xiang Nan’s feelings. He had compressed biscuits and water for breakfast. This time, Xiang Nan ate very seriously. He had to eat his fill so that he would have enough strength and a greater chance of entering the underground city to find that person. Only then could he… kill that man!
The three of them set off after eating and went to the car parked by the roadside first. Sitting in the vehicle, Xiang Nan stared at the map for a long time before pointing out the location on the map. He Xing drove with all the lights on. There was even an additional strong light on the roof of the car, which allowed the car to move smoothly in the thick fog. He would not hit anything, and he would not fall into a deep ditch.
Du Yue turned around and looked at Xiang Nan, who was sitting in the backseat. “How much do you know about that person and the underground city? Do you know his name?”
“I don’t know his name. I only know that he tells everyone to address him as the king. I’ve never been able to enter the underground city. I’ve only managed to gather some information about it. ”
“Then tell us what you’ve heard.”
“It’s said that the underground city covers a large area and is divided into many areas. Half of the territory belongs to the man who calls himself the king. He also… built a harem.”
This was the second time Du Yue had heard the word ‘harem’. When Xiang Nan mentioned this, he unconsciously clenched his fists, his tone full of disgust and hatred. Even if Du Yue did not know what he had gone through, she could tell from his appearance that he was definitely closely related to the harem established by the man who called himself the king.
She had no interest in investigating other people’s secrets. Xiang Nan told them everything he knew, so she did not ask any more questions. The car slowly drove on the road, and the crushing sounds as it ran over the bugs continued to ring out. The three people in the car were already used to it, so they were not surprised by the sound. The car drove on for more than two hours before it slowly came to a stop.
Xiang Nan got out of the car first. He looked around and nodded. “It should be here.”
Du Yue and He Xing alighted from the car, each carrying a backpack. “Since we’re close to the underground city, let’s walk the rest of the way.”
It was too easy to attract attention by driving. It was not a good thing to be discovered before they entered the underground city. He Xing handed Xiang Nan a dagger. “This is for you to protect yourself. Do you know how to use it?”
“yes.” Xiang Nan held the dagger tightly. Xiang Nan led the way, followed by Du Yue and He Xing. The three of them would walk and stop from time to time as Nan Xiang needed to identify the direction. Du Yue and He Xing did not rush him but followed him quietly.
After another half an hour, the three of them finally stopped. It was not because they had discovered the entrance to the underground city but because they heard some movements. There were collapsed buildings everywhere, and with the help of the thick fog, it was not difficult to find a place to hide. The three of them quickly went into hiding. The sound of conversation and footsteps were getting closer and closer.
