Chapter 177: Starting From Killing the Dog and Seizing the Nest

West City, Outer Ring.

A figure poked his head out from the shabby corner of the street. On his face full of stains and mud, a pair of eyes quickly scanned the surroundings. After confirming that no one was passing by, he rushed to the trash can across the street!

He came to the trash can, tied up the whole trash bag in a few seconds, and rushed back to the original corner at a high speed.

He stared with a pair of hungry eyes, ripped open the trash bag frantically, and rummaged through it like a wild dog. When he saw half a piece of uneaten bread, he didn't care about the black liquid stuck on it, and started to stuff it into his mouth!

He was like a beast that hadn't eaten for several days, greedily and frantically biting everything that could be eaten, making chewing sounds that only wild beasts would make... The pale and thin body curled up in a dark corner, looking from a distance, like a jackal that could be blown apart by the wind at any time.

This was the first meal that Jian Changsheng had eaten in more than ten days.

Since he was found in Winter Harbor and sent to the Star Chamber of Commerce, he has never been able to eat a bite of food. After all, the people in the Chamber of Commerce did not intend to let him live. They all thought that he would be dead after one soul-breaking search. No one would want to give him anything to eat. Even if the Star Chamber of Commerce was rich, it would not waste resources on a corpse.

Unfortunately, he did not die after the first search, nor did he die after the second search. Just after surviving the third search, Jian Changsheng was thrown into the dungeon and no one cared about him... If it were not for the powerful vitality brought to him by the [Blood Robe], Jian Changsheng would probably have starved to death in the dungeon.

However, the mental pain brought by the soul-breaking search also emptied his body. In the desperate struggle again and again, his fat and muscles were consumed crazily. After three searches, his weight was less than 80 kilograms, and he was basically skin and bones.

Jian Changsheng ate half a piece of bread, a rotten apple, and a few yellowed leaves in one breath, and the extreme hunger was relieved a little.

At this moment, he heard a noise of a crowd coming from the street in the distance, as if someone was approaching here. He tensed up all over, and hid in a blind spot against the wall, his eyes flashing with murderous intent and vigilance.

However, those people didn't seem to notice this place. After searching around the street, they left directly.

"To catch me... did they make such a big move?" Jian Changsheng muttered to himself as he listened to the footsteps leaving.

Jian Changsheng grew up in the Stars Chamber of Commerce since he was a child. He knew very well how powerful the other party was in Aurora City... Any place with people might have their eyes, so he could only avoid the crowd and move in small and empty places.

But how long can he hide like this? He can't live this kind of desperate life forever. If his life after surviving is like this, he would rather be killed by Chen Ling in the Bingdao Ancient Collection.

But where can he go now?

In Jian Changsheng's mind, the figure of his father immediately emerged... He had finally escaped death, and his father must have thought he was dead. He didn't know how he was living alone? Jian Changsheng was eager to go home to take a look, but soon, he rejected this idea.

His father was originally a servant of the Yan family. After he escaped from prison, the group of people would definitely keep a close eye on the area around his home. Once he went back, he would be trapped.

Jian Changsheng's brain worked quickly, recalling all the trustworthy people in Aurora City, and finally locked on a figure... Now he could only rely on him.

Jian Changsheng hid in the corner with his eyes closed until it was dark and there were basically no pedestrians on the road, then he opened his eyes and set off.

He climbed up the surrounding roofs swiftly, moved like a ghost between the eaves and the walls in the night, silently passed through several streets, and finally landed near a house.

Jian Changsheng didn't rush into the house, but hid in the corner of the street opposite, vigilantly scanning the surroundings with his eyes, as if to confirm whether there was anyone ambushing in secret.

At this moment, the door of the house was opened, and a figure carrying several bags of garbage walked straight to the trash can opposite.

The moment he saw the figure, Jian Changsheng's eyes lit up slightly.

As the figure approached, Jian Changsheng, who was hiding not far away, lowered his voice and called softly: "Uncle!"

The figure was startled, and his eyes subconsciously looked here. When he saw Jian Changsheng, who was covered with stains on his face and dirty all over, he was stunned for a long time, and surprise appeared in his eyes!

He didn't answer, but continued to throw the garbage into the trash can calmly, and at the same time shook his head slightly at Jian Changsheng, his eyes drifted to his house behind him...

Seeing this scene, Jian Changsheng seemed to understand something, and his face was extremely ugly.

The group of people from the Star Chamber of Commerce even found this?

The owner of this family is Jian Changsheng's uncle who grew up with him. However, since his mother died, his father brought him to the Yan family, and the two families have no contact. Logically, the Yan family should not have seen them...

But even so, there are spies here, and they are hidden very secretly. They must have calculated that I would come here, and then wanted to wait for the rabbit.

If I hadn't happened to meet my uncle going out to throw away the garbage, I'm afraid I would have been caught.

Jian Changsheng broke out in a cold sweat. He hid in the corner motionlessly, watching his uncle throw away the garbage and turn back to the house. As the light from the door completely disappeared, Jian Changsheng felt that the last light in his life also disappeared.

He smiled bitterly, and a trace of despair appeared in his eyes. At this moment, the door opened again, and his uncle walked out with two new bags of garbage.

"Why are you throwing away garbage again?" Inside the house, my aunt's surprised voice sounded.

"These things are expired, and it is easy to attract insects if they are left there." My uncle replied at the door, walked straight across the street, and put the two bags of garbage next to the trash can.

Then, he looked up at the direction where Jian Changsheng was, and whispered softly:

"Xiao Jian, someone has targeted my uncle's house... You should stay outside for a while, here are some things for you to eat for a few days... If you really have no place to live, there is a doghouse under the barren hill at the west end of the street... Although the environment is bad, it can at least block the wind and rain."

After saying this quickly, my uncle turned back to the house. Jian Changsheng stared at this scene in a daze, with a touch of warmth in his eyes.

Xiao Jian... He hasn't heard this name for a long time.

Jian Changsheng looked around and saw no one, so he picked up the two garbage bags and followed his uncle's instructions to the barren hill. Sure enough, there was a wooden doghouse standing in the dense and deserted forest.

This doghouse should have been left by the original owner of the house next door, but it was completely abandoned after moving. Now a wild dog from nowhere is crawling in it. It seems that it heard Jian Changsheng's arrival, stood up vigilantly, and let out a low growl in its throat.

Jian Changsheng stared at this scene blankly, and suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of desolation. He had never thought that one day, he would have to compete with wild dogs for a place to live and find food in the trash can.

His life and self-esteem were already inferior to those of wild dogs. He had a home but could not return, and he had talents but nowhere to use them... and all this was thanks to the Star Chamber of Commerce.

Jian Changsheng took a deep breath, loosened the two garbage bags, and walked slowly towards the wild dogs... On that pale face, hatred and murderous intent emerged.

His life had fallen to the bottom. No matter what, it could not be worse than it is now. As long as he could survive, he would have the opportunity to take revenge...

Everything started with killing the dog and taking its nest.
