Chapter 441 - The Heavenly Star Map (1/2)

the cave was barely big enough to fit her, and a skull was next to her.

she might’ve been scared to death if she was less courageous.

were those ghosts the ones who were supporting nan ningxin?

did they capture her in order to eliminate her?

were they punis.h.i.+ng her for ruining their attempt to seize the murong family?

there was no one around when gu bailu woke up. she seemed to have been left on her own.

there was no food in the cave, although there were bugs and ants every now and then.

gu bailu didn’t know how much time had pa.s.sed. she only knew that she was getting hungrier and hungrier and that her mouth was getting dry, but still n.o.body showed up.

she tried to look around with the heavenly eye, but she couldn’t see anything but darkness.

gu bailu had never suffered like this before.

even when she had to cook and wash clothes for mr. xiao, she still had food and water.

when she thought that she was going to die of thirst, a hole opened in the cave, and a bowl of water was put down on the other side. “little garbage, are you thirsty? do you want water?”

the voice was hoa.r.s.e and nasty, and could easily scare a kid to tears.

“yes…” gu bailu said without hesitation. she was scared that she might die if she didn’t have water.

“give me the heavenly star map, and you can have water,” said the stranger.

gu bailu perked up. negotiation meant hope. she had been afraid that they were only going to torture her and didn’t want anything from her.

“what… what heavenly star map?”

she wasn’t acting; she truly didn’t know what the heavenly star map was.

however, whoever captured her must think that she had it.

“the map that your mother left you. don’t tell me you don’t know where it is. we’ve searched your stepmother. the one on her is fake.”

they had already been to ye yunshu?
