Daddy, Mommy Climbs the Wall Again

It was obvious that Gu Caifeng had lost his patience lately. Every now and then, he would run outside, and Ning Xiaoxiao would take note of all her actions.

Although she didn't know why Gu Caier was out there, judging by her personality, she was most likely going to do something for her child.

The more she panicked, the calmer Ning Xiaoxiao calmed down. Only the more she panicked, the more things went her way.

Recently, Gu Caifeng had heard from her little sister in the night field that there was a very spiritual person. It was said that many rich people would go to his place to ask about his matters.

This person was simply like a living immortal. His words were extremely accurate. He said that those who were capable of making a name for themselves were basically on a par with the rest of the world.

And he said that those who were not so good, regardless of how high and mighty he was, there were still plenty of people who fell. Gu Cai'er, who had been suspicious of those people recently, also wanted to go and have a meeting with them.

When Gu Caifeng arrived at the agreed location, she got off the car and was immediately dumbfounded. This was An Hai's famous slum area, the village inside the city.

The dilapidated house gave off a feeling of collapse due to years of neglect. Most of the people who lived here were people who didn't have a source of income.

Dirty bamboo poles were inserted between the houses, and on them hung all sorts of men's and women's clothes. These clothes were the same as the houses, they were all tattered and dirty, and they exuded an indescribable smell.

Gu Cai Er subconsciously covered her nose with her hands. Most of the alleys here were narrow and hard to drive through. She told the driver to park outside and decided to walk in alone.

The first reason was that the road was not easy to traverse, and the second reason was that what she did was not a glorious matter, so she left the driver outside to prevent him from going around and gossiping about it.

However, as Gu Caifeng walked further in, she started to regret why she left the driver outside.

The houses she passed by in front of her were in tatters. The deeper she went into the slum, the smaller the gaps between the houses, and the darker the alley became.

Following the address given by her little sister, Gu Cai Er looked at her phone. It looked like she was going to walk a long way, the fear in her heart was magnified, and she didn't know whether she should go back or not.

However, when she thought of Ning Xiaoxiao's annoying face, she clenched her teeth and sped up her pace. After running for about 5 minutes, the two positions on her phone finally matched.

She let out a long sigh of relief. This should be the place. Gu Caile stood at the door and raised her head to look. The place where the living immortal lived was a tall courtyard.

It was different from all the other houses in the slum. The one in front of her was just a dilapidated building, but the one in front of her was not dilapidated. It was very old and gave off an unusual feeling.

After a long period of erosion, there were quite a few parts of the black door that had lost their skin. On each side of the door hung the handles of two small lions, and it was faintly possible to tell that they were gold.

However, the hoop had become different from the surrounding roughness due to being touched by someone for a long time. It was surrounded by a tall wall. One could tell that it was made from the finest bluestone slabs.

Gu Cai Er was a little shocked by the solemness in front of her. She placed her hand on her heart and gently stroked it. She slowed down her breath and then walked up the steps and lightly knocked on the door.

There was no response from inside the door for a long time. Finally, an old woman's voice came from inside. The moment Gu Cai Er heard someone opening the door, she immediately stood respectfully at the door.

The door creaked open. No one came out, so Gu Caifeng had no choice but to poke her head in. Behind the door stood a hunchbacked old woman with a black veil covering her face.

When the old woman saw Gu Caier standing at the door, her eyes showed no surprise, as if she had expected this person to come knocking on their door.

Just as Gu Cai Er was about to open her mouth to express her purpose for coming, the woman wearing the black veil expressionlessly nodded her head, signaling Gu Cai Er to come in.

Gu Cai Er entered the door and crossed the high threshold with a suspicious look, then walked into the inner courtyard. The woman locked the door and gestured for her to enter.

She followed the old woman into the living room. There was a large screen in front of the house, carved with people. Some were lying down, some were standing, and some were hanging from trees.

Gu Cai Er also didn't understand what this painting meant. With just a few glances, she passed by. After walking through the main hall, they reached the backyard. The woman led her directly to the second floor of the backyard.

The wooden staircase made creaking sounds when stepped on due to years of disrepair. Gu Caier was wearing extremely high heels today, so the creaking sound of her high heels on the stairs was exceptionally ear-piercing in the whole courtyard.

Hearing the ruckus caused by Gu Qishao, the old mistress, covered in a black veil, turned around and cast an impatient glance at her.

Only then did Gu Cai Er carefully lighten her steps. She only dared to use her palm to press against the stairs, slowly going up. She didn't dare to say a single word or ask a single question.

When they arrived at a small room on the second floor, the woman stood at the door, indicating that Gu Caier should go in by herself.

The old woman nodded and pushed open the wooden door dubiously. The morning of winter was especially late, and the room was sheltered from the sun.

Gu Cai Er pushed the door open. The room was dark and dark, and she couldn't see anything clearly. After a long time, she finally got used to the light.

Only then did Gu Cai Er start to look at the room's surroundings. The room was very big, but there was no furniture. There seemed to be a person curled up in the corner on the right.

Gu Cai Er wasn't sure if the person curling up was a living immortal or not. Thus, he opened his mouth tentatively.

"Excuse me …"

Ning Xiaoxiao had yet to say a word when the curled-up ball in the darkness suddenly sat up. It frightened Gu Caifeng so much that she took two steps back.

Seeing that Gu Cai Er was about to leave the room, the old woman standing at the door suddenly closed the door. The old woman standing at the door was about to leave the room, the old woman standing at the door suddenly closed the door.

Stopping in front of the door, Gu Cai`er calmed down. She saw that the person wrapped in all kinds of cotton was actually a 10-year-old child.

Gu Cai Er looked behind her in disbelief. She wanted to ask the old woman with the black veil for confirmation, but the old woman just stood at the door expressionlessly.

She faithfully guarded her own door, showing an expression of speechlessness towards any of Gu Cai's actions.
