Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse-Chapter 943 - 541: Mom, I Saw God! (3)
Xu Ying, saying this, took off her sunglasses.
Revealing her vivid eyes.
The surrounding crowd was watching.
"Such beautiful eyes!"
"With eyes like these, you know she’s a beauty!"
"Could the guards have made a mistake? How could such a beautiful girl be a criminal?"
"Ha, letting your morals follow your appearance, right?"
"...Don’t you guys think these eyes look... very familiar?"
Some had already noticed the anomaly, and many were now looking up at the statue.
At this moment, Xu Ying removed the mask she was wearing, completely exposing her face.
Exposed to everyone’s eyes.
"Huh?"
"...Whoa?"
The surroundings instantly fell silent.
For those living in the underground world, this face...
Was too familiar!
The crowd was silent for two seconds, then screams erupted.
"Ah—!"
"Mom, I saw God!"
"Oh my God, oh my God!"
"Fake... it must be fake!"
Even the guards who originally had guns pointed at them were stunned, their guns lowering halfway. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
They were just following orders, but this face...
Realizing they might be aiming a gun at a deity, they were suddenly flustered.
And the people who had originally backed away were rushing back!
"Run!"
Xu Ying immediately grabbed Li Wenxi’s wrist and dashed toward the statue.
Her speed was swift, very swift; although Li Wenxi was much faster than ordinary people, she couldn’t keep up with Xu Ying and was basically being pulled along.
"Hey... hey?!" Li Wenxi was dragged, and within a few seconds, they were under the statue.
The base of the statue was not empty; both statues stood on a three-to-four-meter high stone platform.
Xu Ying directly touched the side of the platform, and suddenly a door swung open!
"Bang!"
Gunfire rang out from behind at this moment!
They fired!
Before Li Wenxi could gasp, Xu Ying waved a hand behind her, then pulled Li Wenxi inside the door, and it swiftly closed.
The surroundings plunged into complete darkness and silence.
Li Wenxi could only hear her own breathing and heartbeat.
"Sis, are you hurt?!"
Before Li Wenxi could speak, a faint white glow appeared beside her.
The light came from Xu Ying’s little Treasure Pearl; it wasn’t very bright, just illuminating the area around them by a few meters.
This was a simple space, with nothing surrounding them.
"I’m fine, how about you? That gun earlier..." Li Wenxi quickly reacted, asking anxiously, "Did you... did you get shot?"
"Don’t worry, such low-grade weapons can’t harm me." Saying this, Xu Ying released her grip on her other hand.
A bullet appeared in her palm; she tilted her hand, and the bullet fell to the ground, making a crisp sound.
Li Wenxi’s eyes widened as she looked at the bullet on the ground, then looked up at Xu Ying in disbelief: "Catching a bullet with your hand! Yingying, you’re... so strong!"
"Hehe, right? I’m the survivor of the previous generation, of course I’m strong!" Xu Ying said proudly with a laugh.
As the last person left from the false future, she had abilities that could affect time and space, catching a bullet was far too easy for her.
"So now we are..." Li Wenxi looked back at the place they came in; now it was just a stone wall, the entrance couldn’t be seen.
After all, the entire statue was made of stone.
"Don’t worry, even though this isn’t very sturdy, they wouldn’t dare destroy it." Xu Ying said confidently.
"...Didn’t they just fire at this direction?" Li Wenxi pointed at the bullet on the ground.
"Well..." Xu Ying showed an annoyed expression, muttering, "I don’t quite understand why they dared to fire at us..."
Fortunately, there was no movement outside.
The soundproofing was probably too good; no sound could be heard at all.
"...Yingying!" Li Wenxi suddenly reached out and tugged at Xu Ying’s cheek, pulling twice, "Can you tell me what’s going on here! We ran for no reason, quickly tell me, what’s going on!"
She spoke while pinching Xu Ying’s cheek.
"Ouch... uh... I’ll explain, just don’t pinch my cheek!"
Xu Ying grabbed Li Wenxi’s hand, pleading.
Then, she turned to look at where they came in, her eyes slightly darkened.
Her previous guess... turned out to be true.
Those people actually wanted to control her.
The human rulers of this underground world, perhaps...
Got into some trouble.
