Chapter 198: Tavern Incident
Two days later——
In a hidden corner of Beijing, an underground tavern exists quietly.
Gu Yihui gently lifted the bead curtain and walked into this mysterious place with calm steps.
Although his pace was casual, each step revealed a majesty and confidence that could not be ignored, as if his arrival itself indicated that some important event was about to happen.
Although it was daytime and there were not many customers in the tavern, every customer here was an extraordinary person from every corner of the universe. They chose this place not only to taste fine wine, but also to find a little spiritual comfort in this exotic space.
The lights inside the pub are dim and soft, creating a depressing yet mysterious atmosphere. This unique environment just caters to the preferences of these alien visitors, allowing them to relax more and indulge in the joy of the moment under the influence of alcohol.
However, when Gu Yihui appeared at the door, the guests who were originally immersed in their own world all raised their heads and cast curious eyes on this sudden stranger. Their eyes were full of inquiry, as if they were guessing the purpose and identity of this uninvited guest.
In the dim light, a man suddenly stood up, the wine glass in his hand reflecting the faint light. His voice was loud and provocative: "Look, who is this? How dare you break into our territory in broad daylight..."
Another man was not to be outdone and echoed loudly: "Hey, are you a fool from some planet? Don't you know where this place is?"
However, when their eyes really fell on the person who came, the ridicule on their faces was gradually replaced by surprise.
"Ultraman... huh, he's really arrogant!" one of them muttered in a low voice.
"Ultraman... this is not a place you can just barge in!" There was a hint of warning in the other person's voice.
Obviously, the guests in these bars were not ordinary people, and they saw Gu Yihui's true identity at a glance. Facing the ridicule and sarcasm of these aliens, Gu Yihui did not respond, but just swept his cold eyes over everyone present.
Finally, his eyes locked on a middle-aged man, and his voice carried a hint of unquestionable majesty: "Where is Ducas?"
"Ducas?"
Hearing this name, the whole tavern fell into a brief silence, and then everyone showed astonishment and began to exchange glances. However, the next second, a burst of laughter suddenly broke out, as if to blow the roof off.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
"I never thought that Ultraman, who has always been so arrogant and conceited, would have to ask for help one day!"
"Hahaha, this is so ridiculous!"
Gu Yihui did not show any anger or annoyance in the face of this sudden ridicule. He remained calm and composed, and repeated again: "I ask again, where is Ducas now?"
At this moment, a table was slammed with a loud bang, and a tall man stood up, pointing his finger directly at Gu Yihui, and said in a cold tone: "Hey! Brat, is this your attitude when asking for help?"
"Don't think you can be so arrogant just because you have the power of God!"
Gu Yihui quietly looked at this group of drunken aliens and sighed inwardly. They were once elite warriors sent to Earth from the universe, but now they could only drink to drown their sorrows and indulge in the short-lived happiness brought by alcohol.
Thinking of this, Gu Yihui couldn't help but shake his head and sighed: "Oh, it seems that I can't expect to get any useful information from these people." After saying that, he turned around and left without hesitation, walking towards the door of the tavern.
When the aliens saw Gu Yihui walking out without saying a word, they were immediately filled with anger. They felt that their dignity had been severely trampled upon. So, they stood up angrily and stared at Gu Yihui fiercely. Two of the aliens could not wait to rush forward, blocking Gu Yihui's way and posing a provocative attitude.
Gu Yihui narrowed his eyes slightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, but he did not act immediately. Instead, he appeared unusually calm.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the bar became tense. Everyone's eyes were focused on Gu Yihui, and it seemed that a fierce conflict was about to break out.
At this time, a middle-aged man wearing jeans and drinking a little wine also noticed the situation here. He slowly put down the wine glass, then turned to look at Gu Yihui and said in a calm tone: "Ultraman... This is not a place where you can come and go as you please." His voice was not loud, but it seemed that every word carried an unquestionable majesty.
"What? You still want to keep me here?"
……
Five minutes later, the pub returned to silence after a brief period of chaos.
Inside the pub, some tables and stools had turned into fragments scattered all over the ground. Several strong men with bruised faces and noses were curled up on the ground, groaning in pain.
Gu Yihui sat on a high stool in front of the bar, sipping his wine leisurely. Next to him was the middle-aged man in jeans, with a few more bruises on his face than before. His expression was flattering, and his eyes revealed a hint of uneasiness.
Gu Yihui gently shook the wine glass in his hand, savoring the aroma of the wine. He asked softly, "Do you know where Ducas is now?"
The cowboy recalled for a moment and replied, "The cosmic intelligence dealer?"
"Yes, it's him." Gu Yihui nodded and looked at him with sharp eyes.
The cowboy felt nervous when Gu Yihui's eyes swept over him, and he quickly said, "He did come here, but that was two months ago. Maybe... you can go to the pub in Shanghai and ask?"
Gu Yihui gently put down his wine glass and said calmly: "I have already asked in Shanghai."
"Oh, I see..." The cowboy smiled awkwardly, a trace of sympathy arose in his heart, and then suggested, "Then you might as well go to Guangzhou to have a look. That is the largest gathering place for aliens in China. Maybe the Decas you are looking for is there now."
As soon as the cowboy finished speaking, he was praying silently in his heart, hoping that Gu Yihui, the plague god, would leave as soon as possible and never come back.
Gu Yihui nodded slightly, without saying anything more, he stood up and left the tavern, leaving behind a mess and a group of frightened men.
The cowboy watched Gu Yihui's figure disappear at the door of the tavern. Only after they were sure that he had really left did the bruised and drunken men dare to approach the cowboy cautiously. The fear and anxiety on their faces were clearly visible.
They exchanged glances, as if seeking an answer. Finally, one of them mustered up the courage and said in a trembling voice, "Why are these Ultramen so powerful?"
The cowboy sighed softly, revealing a hint of helplessness in his tone: "Hey, next time you meet them, just try not to provoke them."
"Then why is he looking for Dicas?" another burly man couldn't help but ask, his eyes full of curiosity.
The cowboy turned his head and glanced at the burly man, with a playful smile on his face: "Want to know?" He paused deliberately, then continued, "Go ask him yourself."
After that, the cowboy said no more, leaving the strong men looking at each other in bewilderment. They did not dare to ask any more questions, so they could only swallow their curiosity silently and start cleaning up the broken tables and chairs in the tavern.
The atmosphere in the pub gradually returned to calm, but Gu Yihui's appearance undoubtedly brought a little ripple to this small world. The cowboy sat quietly at the bar, his eyes deep, as if thinking about a deeper problem.
"I can ask Ducas for information... Could it be that some blind guy has offended him?"
