Tomb Robber: Oops, I think I met a tomb robber.
Chapter 31 Visiting an Important Person
When Qiuyue woke up, Xie Jiu was no longer in bed. She got up in a daze, then froze. Then her whole body became furious and she screamed wildly in her heart.
Ahhh what did she do last night!!
She used a Heaven Avoidance Talisman for no reason! Ahh ...
Her points ahhhhhhh!!
"woke up?"
When Xie Jiu's voice sounded, Qiuyue glared at him with watery eyes. If he hadn't forbidden her to go to bed, how could she have been so irrational as to spend a Heaven-avoiding Talisman in the middle of the night!
"mum!"
Qiuyue complained. Xie Jiu sat beside the bed and looked at her, saying, "I don't know your name, so I'll just call you Little Moon. Little Moon, are you really a goddess from heaven who has come down to earth?"
"mum!"
Qiuyue was very angry. She didn't want to pay attention to him. She turned her head away from him, and the tip of her little tail was slapping the bed.
Xie Jiu looked at the angry figure and reached out to touch her back gently: "Are you angry with me? Because I didn't let you go to bed yesterday?"
Should I say that it’s worthy of being Xie Jiu, he can always understand what she means at the first time. If it were someone else, I’m afraid they wouldn’t even know that she was angry.
"mum!"
Xie Jiu couldn't help but laugh: "It's my fault, Xiaoyue, don't be angry. Look, you're already in bed. I've already thrown away the cat bed. You can sleep wherever you want from now on, okay?"
Qiuyue listened, turned her head and saw that the cat bed from yesterday was indeed gone. Then she reluctantly forgave him: "Meow~"
Hearing the tone of her voice, Xie Jiu knew that she was no longer angry. Although the angry Xiaoyue was still very cute, she would ignore him.
"Don't be angry anymore. Are you hungry? Let's go and eat."
Xie Jiu picked her up and did not continue to ask whether she was a goddess. Whether she was or not, she was his little moon now, wasn't she?
Qiuyue had a delicious breakfast, then wiped her mouth with the help of Xie Jiu and became a clean kitten again.
"Today I'm going to visit an adult, Little Moon, you..."
Before Xie Jiu could finish his words, Qiuyue jumped directly into his arms.
What a joke! She came here specifically for salvation, how could she let the object of salvation run away?
Xie Jiu caught her, couldn't help but stroke her fur, and chuckled: "Little Moon, why are you so clingy to me?"
Qiuyue shook her ears but said nothing. Xie Jiu didn't expect her to respond, but he couldn't help feeling a little happy in his heart.
Qiuyue originally thought he was going to meet some big business client, but she never expected that he would actually come to the Zhang Mansion to meet Zhang Qishan!
When Qiuyue saw the familiar entrance of Zhang's house, her whole body froze.
But when she saw Zhang Qishan, Zhang Jishan and Zhang Xiaoyu all there, she stiffened even more and nestled tightly in Xie Jiu's arms without moving, pretending to be a dead cat.
By the way, she still didn't know what year it was, but she remembered that Xie Jiu was born in 27-30, and now he looked eighteen years old, which meant he was around 45-48.
She used her cat's eyes to secretly glance at the three people. Their appearance had changed. Zhang Qishan looked like a man in his forties, and his aura was even more intense. After all, he had been a defense officer for more than 20 years.
Zhang Xiaoyu, who was from Zhangshan, looked to be in his thirties, with no emotion on his face. It was as if they were all members of the Zhang family. When he had no expression on his face, it was almost like a template.
However, Qiuyue took another closer look and found that all the illusions on their faces had disappeared. They still looked young in their twenties. It seemed that they had used magic after cultivating immortality, so others would only see the appearance they wanted others to see.
Qiuyue was quite relieved, as this way there would be no problems that would be noticed by the higher-ups.
"Master Buddha, this time I visit you, I want to talk to you about the preparation and sale of medicines."
Xie Jiu felt the stiff body of Xiao Yueliang in his arms and felt a little confused. She was a goddess in heaven, so why would she be afraid of three mortals?
Although he didn't know why, he still gently stroked her back to comfort her.
Zhang Qishan saw the cat in Xie Jiu's hand, but didn't pay much attention to it. He glanced at it lightly and motioned Xie Jiu to sit down and talk: "Sit down."
"Thank you, Lord Buddha."
Xie Jiu sat down, while Zhang Qishan and Zhang Xiaoyu stood behind him. Zhang Qishan casually poured his tea and said, "Is there anything wrong with the medicine?"
Xie Jiu said, "There's nothing wrong with the medicine, it's the way it's sold that's the problem. Master Buddha must know that every one of the prescriptions you gave me is a top-notch one. The ingredients used to make the medicine are simple, but the efficacy is amazing. After my Jie family sold these medicines on behalf of Master Buddha, no matter where they were sent, they were always sold out. The demand for the medicine simply couldn't keep up with the supply. Even people from abroad have repeatedly asked my Jie family to sell the prescriptions. I knew Master Buddha wouldn't sell prescriptions, so I refused them many times. But they got impatient and are now taking drastic measures. A number of my Jie family's shops abroad have already been forcibly demolished and opened."
The Buddha listened without moving, took a sip of tea, and asked, "Who are they?"
Xie Jiu mentioned several names in succession, all of whom were famous medicine sellers from abroad. Zhang Qishan was not surprised to hear these. After all, those were the prescriptions made by the little girl.
Thinking of the little girl, a trace of scarlet madness flashed in Zhang Qishan's eyes.
More than twenty years, a full twenty years, she has never been seen again since she came back that night, how dare she!
"?3?9 mountain."
Zhang Qishan called out, then glanced at Xie Jiu and said, "Master Jiu, don't worry. From today on, this kind of thing will never happen again. As for your losses, the full amount of the medicine we sent to the capital a few days ago will be given to you. This is our Buddha's compensation to you."
Xie Jiu was astonished. He wasn't just surprised by their generosity. The money they'd made from sending that batch of medicine to the capital was unimaginable, and yet they'd just given it to him so easily? And then there was the phrase, "From today on, nothing like that will happen." It implied that they'd take action today and solve the problem in a single day. How powerful did they have to be to say something like that?
However, Xie Jiu quickly put away his surprise. As long as he thought that the person in front of him was the legendary Zhang Dafoye of Changsha City, he was not surprised.
He grew up listening to the stories of Zhang Dafoye told by his elders in the family, and he could even recite Zhang Dafoye's deeds by heart.
Whether it was when he first arrived in Changsha as a defense adjutant in 20 and captured Zuo Qianzhi overnight to become the defense officer, or when he firmly established himself as the top leader of Changsha in 25 and almost the entire Changsha city became his territory, or when he participated in the Anti-Japanese War in 31, the Japanese were almost wiped out wherever he went, and the entire Changsha city was built like an iron fortress. Without a single Japanese, it became a paradise longed for by countless refugees.
No matter what it is, it is so miraculous and shocking.
As early as eight years ago, their Xie family had taken advantage of Master Fo's help and became his agent for selling medicines. It was also because of this that their Xie family almost became the fourth largest family in Changsha City. Although it was still ranked ninth among the Nine Gates, it was still awe-inspiring outside.
Being able to hook up with Zhang Dafoye is the greatest luck for their Xie family.
"Then I, Xie, would like to thank Master Buddha in advance."
Xie Jiu stood up and bowed to express his gratitude. Zhang Qishan waved his hand and said, "No need. Your Xie family has simply suffered an unexpected disaster. It's our fault for not considering these uncertainties in advance."
Xie Jiu was impressed by Zhang Dafoye's courage, while Qiuyue pretended to be dead, motionless like a plush decoration, eavesdropping on their conversation.
Just when Xie Jiu wanted to continue speaking, two footsteps were suddenly heard outside.
"Master Buddha, do you have guests?"
Qiuyue froze into stone.
Who else could this familiar voice be but Er Yuehong?
She quietly looked up and saw that it was indeed Er Yuehong and Chenpi. They looked a dozen years older than before, but they also used magic like Zhang Qishan and the others.
"It turned out to be the Second Master and the Fourth Master."
When Xie Jiu saw the person coming, he stood up and greeted him.
If we say that the largest family in Changsha City is the Zhang family, then the next are the Hong family and the Chen family. I don’t know how it is done, but the three families represented by the five people in front of me seem to have a common friendship that others are unknown to. No matter who it is, I can’t completely integrate into them. It’s like an unfathomable barrier separating these three families from others. Even the Xie family has been helping Zhang Dafoye as a substitute for eight years, but they are still no match for these two in front of me.
"It's Xiaojiu, no need to be polite, just sit down."
Er Yuehong was still smiling brightly. He turned to look at Zhang Qishan and said, "Master Buddha, Chenpi and I came uninvited. You don't mind, do you?"
Zhang Qishan glanced at him and said, "You've come uninvited so many times, and this is the last time? Sit down."
Er Yuehong sat down with a smile on his face. Chen Pi, who had a gloomy look on his face, also called out "Master Buddha" and sat down.
Seeing that both of them had sat down, Xie Jiu followed suit. Er Yuehong saw the kitten in Xie Jiu's arms and couldn't help but think of the cat he had raised over twenty years ago, but it had unfortunately run away. He said, "When did Xiaojiu get this cat? It looks only two months old. Is it asleep? Why isn't it moving?"
Xie Jiu was stunned for a moment, but still said: "The cat I started raising yesterday is indeed only two months old. As for the fact that it's not moving, it must be asleep."
He didn't know why Xiaoyue had been motionless since they arrived here, and her body felt tense, as if she had met a natural enemy. His heart tightened, and he had to find a way to leave as soon as possible.
"I see. It's a new cat. It's quite well-behaved and doesn't make any noise."
Er Yuehong nodded, but just asked and didn't pay any further attention. Chen Pi, who was standing next to him, had no emotion on his face and was just playing with a dagger.
"What are you doing here this time?"
Zhang Qishan put down his teacup and looked at Er Yuehong. Hearing the question, Er Yuehong's smile faded slightly and said, "The guys we sent out to investigate have all returned. We've searched everywhere where there might be news of her, but still nothing."
Zhang Qishan pursed his lips. Xie Jiu knew this was not what he wanted to hear. Just as he was about to say goodbye, Zhang Qishan looked at him and said, "Don't leave yet. I have something to ask of you."
Xie Jiu heard this and said, "Master Buddha, please speak."
Zhang Qishan looked at Zhang 3?9shan behind him. Zhang 3?9shan nodded, turned around and went upstairs to the study. Zhang Qishan said, "Perhaps you may have heard that twenty-five years ago, I searched vigorously for the whereabouts of a person."
Qiuyue's scalp started to tingle instantly.
Xie Jiu nodded: "I've heard of it. Master Buddha, are you still looking for it?"
Zhang Qishan lowered his eyes, a hint of bloodshot rising in them. His voice was as steady as ever: "She came back twice twenty years ago, and the second time, twenty years ago today, she disappeared completely. We've been searching for her ever since. We've sent people to search for her wherever there's been any similar news in China, but we still haven't found her. Now we can only place our hopes abroad. You have a large number of people overseas, so I'd like to ask for your help in searching for her."
Xie Jiu was very surprised. He had indeed heard that on the first day Zhang Dafoye became the defense officer 25 years ago, he mobilized all his people to search for a woman. However, he did not expect that more than 20 years later, Dafoye was still looking for her and thinking about her. Didn't Dafoye think that the person might have died?
However, when Zhang Sanshan took out a scroll from the study and handed it to Xie Jiu, who opened it, his pupils contracted in an instant.
However, the surprise on his face only lasted for a moment, then turned into deep astonishment. He said, "No wonder you can't forget me, Master Buddha. What's this girl's name? I will definitely help you search for her abroad."
Zhang Qishan and the others didn't notice Xie Jiu's strange behavior at that moment. He said, "Her name is Yang Qiuyue. If your people find her abroad, please don't alarm her. Come and tell us directly, and we will find her ourselves."
Xie Jiu lowered his eyes and nodded in agreement. He subconsciously touched the little moon that had been nestled in his legs and had not moved, put away the scroll and stood up.
"I will arrange for someone to go abroad to investigate. Master Buddha, Second Master, Fourth Master, you guys chat."
Xie Jiu stood up with the scroll in one hand and the kitten in the other and took his leave. Zhang Qishan nodded and said, "Please." Zhang Qishan behind him went to see Xie Jiu off, while Er Yuehong remained seated without getting up. He took a sip of tea, and Chenpi remained the same, never even glancing at Xie Jiu from beginning to end.
After Xie Jiu left, Chen Pi finally raised his eyes and said, "Why should Xie Jiu find us? It's not like we can't go abroad."
Er Yuehong glanced at him and said slowly, "Although we can go abroad, the question is, are you sure you can find it on your own? The Xie Jiu family has people in various foreign countries. Wouldn't it be faster to just borrow their help? We've been searching for twenty years in China and still haven't found it. Wouldn't it take even longer abroad?"
After Zhang Sanshan came back, he sat down with Zhang Xiaoyu. They were all acquaintances, and they were all people who had learned the skills of cultivating immortals from the little girl, so there was no need to be so polite.
"Twenty years, a full twenty years."
Zhang Qishan laughed softly, his tone full of madness.
"Every time you say you won't leave, you always leave silently."
The other four people also had suppressed emotions on their faces. Even Er Yuehong no longer had the smiling look he had just had. He was usually gentle, but now his eyes were filled with gloom.
"Yue'er, please don't let us catch you..."
