Traveling through ancient times to escape famine, I have a treasure chest so I don't have to wo
Chapter 40 But does he dare?
"Master, there is someone in the cave ahead." Jiang Er stood in front of Jiang Yan. Jiang Yan waved his hand and Jiang Er stepped back. Xu Ning heard the voice and walked out of the cave. Her figure also appeared in front of Jiang Yan at the same time.
Jiang Yan stared at the girl with a crew cut in front of him for two seconds in a daze. She was holding a strange black box and looking at him with a frown.
"Daya, what's wrong?" Xu Da's figure appeared behind Xu Ning, and other members of the Xu family also appeared in front of Jiang Yan and his servants one after another.
"Who are you?" Xu Ning asked first. She looked very alert, and the other members of the Xu family also took defensive postures.
Jiang Er was about to stand in front of Jiang Yan again, but Jiang Yan pushed him away.
He remembered the little girl, she was the little girl who dared to fight with the tiger.
"Excuse me, we are looking for a place to rest."
"Oh, there's no place here. You can look nearby." Xu Ning knew who he was and didn't care whether he would hold a grudge or not. Anyway, she was the first to come here. If he had the guts to reveal his identity, she would back off!
But does he dare?
Of course he didn't dare, because he was taking refuge!
She had spent a lot of money to exchange this information with the treasure chest. Xu Ning didn't want to be too close to him. He was too dangerous and she was afraid of being implicated if she was not careful.
Jiang Er was stunned by Xu Ning's words, while Jiang Yan chuckled and tapped his palms with his folding fan. Xu Ning followed his movements and looked at his hands.
The hands were very white, with long and slender fingers and distinct joints. Xu Ning suddenly felt that these hands were particularly suitable for playing the piano.
"Sorry for bothering you, let's go." Jiang Yan did not call Jiang Er's name, because they couldn't even let outsiders hear their surnames.
Xu Ning had been staring at his back, and suddenly the words "young and handsome" appeared in his mind.
"They left? Will they come back to kill us?" Xu Da's voice interrupted Xu Ning's thoughts. He scratched his head in confusion. Old Lady Xu slapped him on the back and said, "What are you talking about?"
"Dad, they won't come here again." Xu Ning said affirmatively, and they didn't want too many people to know their whereabouts. The Xu family saw them by accident.
"Oh, it's scary. That man looks like he's killed someone before! And that young man in brocade clothes looks too old. Are all the rich young men like this? He doesn't look youthful at all. He's not as lively as our big girl. Don't you think so, mother?"
"Dad, have you met many rich young men?" Xu Ning glanced at him sideways. She always felt that there was a hint of disparagement in Xu Da's words.
"No, I've seen it from a distance before, but this is my first time seeing it!"
"Oh." Xu Ning rolled his eyes and turned to go into the cave.
The other members of the Xu family also followed him into the cave. Xu Da stood there even more confused. What did he say wrong?
Xu Ning returned to his location and checked the surveillance footage, and discovered that Jiang Yan and his servant had settled down in another cave one kilometer away from the Xu family.
Xu Ning told the Xu family the news, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Old Mrs. Xu began to clean up and cook, using the dried meat, yams and mushrooms that Xu Ning had taken out when he first entered the cave.
Xu Ning was searching for Jiang Yan's carriage within the range of the drone. After swiping at the display screen for a while, Xu Ning found that Jiang Yan's carriage was still moving forward.
Is this a case of a cat replacing a prince?
Does this guy named Jiang plan to stay here?
"Sister, is this a fairy's mirror?" Xu Xiaobao leaned close to Xu Ning and had been silent while Xu Ning was operating it. He only spoke when Xu Ning was in a daze.
"Forget it, this is a treasure given by the gods. Our family will know what is happening around us in the future!" Xu Ning told Xu Xiaobao the operation steps. At first, Xu Xiaobao was nervous and didn't dare to move, for fear of breaking it.
Later, after Xu Xiaobao got the hang of it, he was able to operate it more smoothly than Xu Ning. It turns out that boys are very talented in these things!
As a person who likes to be lazy whenever possible, Xu Ning quickly handed over the task of checking the surveillance to Xu Xiaobao, and she herself lay down and waited for food.
"Master, I'm sorry to have you stay here for one night." Jiang Er simply cleaned the much smaller cave. Jiang Yan took a look around and found a place to sit down.
"It's okay." This cave is definitely big enough for two people, but Jiang Er will not live in it. He will guard the entrance of the cave. In this way, the size of the cave makes no difference to him. It's just a matter of staying there for one night.
"Mom, look, has anyone lived here before?" After finishing her meal, Zhang was cleaning up the garbage and found that the stones in the cave were flat when turned over. She quickly thought of the master and servant who appeared at the entrance of the cave.
"I'm afraid they have lived here before, otherwise they wouldn't have come here specially." Old Mrs. Xu also realized it, but their family had already moved in, and it would be difficult to find a place so late at night. It was destined that there was no way to change places today.
"Grandma, they both know Kung Fu, so they can live anywhere. Besides, this is not their territory, and there is no rule that only they can live here, right?" Otherwise, they would not have left on their own initiative later, so there is no need to worry about this matter.
"How do you know they know Kung Fu?"
"Because the young man in brocade clothes was the one in the woods last time?"
"What? Is that killer the one who followed us into the valley?" Old Lady Xu was startled and asked Xu Ning hurriedly: "Are they still following us now?"
"No, that guard doesn't seem to be the Ninja Turtle from last time. But he looks a bit similar, I didn't recognize him at first!" If she hadn't seen the young man in brocade clothes, she really wouldn't have recognized him, she just felt that he looked familiar.
"Daya, put all the things away quickly!" Old Mrs. Xu was glad that the two men did not come in, otherwise she would not be able to explain why there were so many things in the cave.
"Grandma, don't be afraid. If someone comes over here, the surveillance camera will alert the police."
"That won't work either. Take everything back except the quilt. If someone comes in, you won't have time to hide!"
"Okay!" After hearing what Old Lady Xu said, Xu Ning knew that he would not be able to take out the things anymore.
Xu Ning never had a good impression of people with the surname Jiang, and now he was even more disgusted with them.
On the other side of the cave, Jiang Yan, who had not yet fallen asleep, was thinking about something and suddenly remembered the strange girl.
He didn't understand why he thought of her, and the scene of their meeting suddenly appeared in his mind.
Xu Ning also tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. She didn't know whether meeting the man named Jiang this time was a good thing or a bad thing. She specifically asked the treasure chest but he refused to tell her.
What made Xu Ning even more depressed was that she actually heard excitement from the electronic sound of the treasure box?!
"Xu Daya, are you possessed by a ghost? Why aren't you sleeping so late?!" Xu Ning rolled around on the quilt. There wasn't much space, and he couldn't fall asleep after bumping into something. Just lying there, Old Lady Xu was lost in thought.
