Tomb raiding: following the plot while tearing up the script
Chapter 17 Someone hired me to dig up your ancestral graves
Before leaving, Qin Ye said he would arrange for staff to come to the three unregistered individuals' homes as soon as possible to process their identity documents.
He then left gracefully amidst the complicated look in the eyes of the Xie family head.
Is this guy really a military general? He's more of a politician than a politician.
I'm so annoyed, I still lost...
……
After getting his ID card as quickly as possible, Hei Xiazi dragged Su Li and Zhang Qiling to visit all the places that required identification, leaving early and returning late every day.
Seeing Xie Yuchen either miserably dealing with documents at home or going out to inspect his properties, he felt increasingly frustrated and became even more determined to bring that irresponsible old man back.
No one was holding him back from his cultivation. Every day he received all sorts of small items for food, clothing, shelter, and transportation, as well as loving messages from his master, fellow disciples, and senior sisters. He also had two companions who took him around to eat, drink, and play. He even saw a stage that Hua Hua had specially set up for him.
Zurich is having such a blast, I don't even want to leave! Turns out there are so many fun activities besides sunbathing and sleeping!
Waaaaah, Hua Hua's Yang Guifei outfit is so beautiful! No wonder it's a system-made outfit, no wonder she's called "Beauty Flower"... As expected, Master is always right, Master never lies to his disciple!!!
Cultivation world: Hehe, why don't you say that your master never lies?
Senior brothers and sisters: Ah, the innocent junior brother...
……
Time slipped away quietly amidst the busy slacking off; the secret bases in various places were still under construction, and for the time being, there was nothing for Zuli to do.
The area outside their two small courtyards has already taken on the colors of autumn.
Su Li and Zhang Qiling sat side by side under the crabapple tree in the courtyard, carrying their own prayer mats, lost in thought. The crabapple trees under the eaves, their branches laden with blossoms that refused to fall, swayed gently in the breeze.
Zhang Qiling had long discovered that as long as he stayed by Su Li's side, the urgency to frantically search for missing memories in tombs would disappear.
That feeling of true inner peace.
There was no sense of urgent mission, no constant urging him to complete any task; this feeling... was wonderful...
When Xie Yuchen came out for some fresh air, he saw this peaceful scene, which calmed his irritation caused by the documents.
"Dumb! Dumb, dumb, dumb..."
The peaceful and idyllic days have shattered into pieces...
That blind idiot is a real master at ruining the mood!
A large black rat climbed over the courtyard wall and darted to Zhang Qiling's side in a few steps.
"Dumb, dumb! I've taken on a job. Want to know what it is?" Black Bear chuckled slyly and hooked his arm around Zhang Qiling's shoulder.
Zhang Qiling: …
I don't want to...
"Hey, you mute, give me some reaction! You really don't want to? It's your problem!" Black Bear continued his jerky act, his smile clearly indicating he was up to no good.
Zhang Qiling didn't say anything, just stared at him quietly, as if she was ready to listen to him.
Seeing that he couldn't provoke Zhang Qiling, Hei Xiazi turned to Su Li, who was watching the drama unfold. "Little Li, do you want to know? I'll tell you secretly, but we won't tell the mute."
Zurich...
"Actually, I kind of want to..." just out of curiosity.
"Hehehe..." Black Bear held his hand in front of Su Li, rubbed his thumb and forefinger together, and gave her a knowing smile.
Just then, Xie Yuchen, who was passing by, raised his hand and slapped him on the back of the head. "Say what you want, or get lost."
That blind bastard is like a man who's been climbing on the roof and tearing off tiles if he's not disciplined for three days straight. All he does is try to trick Ali into giving him good stuff.
The black bear, now subdued, rubbed the back of his head and grimaced. "Hiss, I say, Flower Master, you're too cruel to the blind man! He's been protecting you since childhood! Can't you be a little gentler?"
Xie Yuchen: Thank you, but I can't be any gentler.
Hei Xiazi, understanding what he meant, pursed his lips, regained his energy, put his arm around Zhang Qiling, patted him on the shoulder like a good brother, and laughed happily. "Someone's a traitor, hiring a blind man to dig up your ancestral graves."
Xie Yuchen: ...
Zurich: ...
Zhang Qiling: …
"You guys...give me some response?" The blind man was unhappy that the desired effect had not been achieved.
Xie Yuchen's lips twitched. "The third son of the Wu family?"
"Huh? How did you know, Flower Master?"
"Not long after, Wu's third son wanted to ask Brother Zhang for help, and the reward he offered was the Zhang family's ancestral black gold ancient sword. This sword should still be in the Zhang family's ancestral graveyard, right?"
That's why Wu Laosan was able to get Bei Ya to protect Wu Xie. After all, protecting someone and having to act along is beyond Da Zhang Ge's scope of business.
“That’s right, Wu Laosan paid a high price to have the blind man enter the Zhang Family Ancient Building and retrieve an ancient sword.” Black Bear gestured with a large amount of money.
Xie Yuchen looked up at the sky speechlessly. "I said, wasn't your hidden danger resolved? How come you haven't changed this money-grubbing habit at all?"
"What's wrong? Making money is a blind man's motivation. Even though he doesn't have to spend it, he still has to earn it."
"I'm afraid you might earn the money but not live to spend it, and someone will try to scam you, but you'll still jump right in."
Wu Laosan and Xie Lianhuan are the kings of swindlers throughout the story, swindling whoever they can and completely disregarding the lives of others.
"I told you to read books with me but you wouldn't. You think you can send me to a deadly place for such a small amount of money? You think your life is 'worth a fortune'? You're really something."
After being ridiculed by Xie Yuchen, Hei Xiazi could only chuckle awkwardly and scratch his head. "I'm just here to give you guys a heads-up since it's related to the mute. I figured they're starting to get involved, so I came back to give you a heads-up."
"So, what about this job?" Black Bear asked cautiously.
"You have to take it, but you can't let those old foxes notice anything amiss. But you can't just rush in by yourself, or you'll probably lose half your life if you don't die."
We cannot make any major changes in the early stages; anticipating the enemy's moves is our advantage now.
"That……"
"I'll answer it," Zhang Qiling replied. "I'll go."
"You almost got caught up in the story," Xie Yuchen said with a smile. "Twice."
"..."
It's...very awkward...
"He has amnesia." That's because he has amnesia; he doesn't remember the way in, so he can only use a clumsy method.
(This is a personal interpretation. After Da Zhang lost his memory and was used as bait, he has regained most of his memories through years of tomb raiding. He also has some memories that he is searching for by continuing to raid tombs. Therefore, Da Zhang here remembers the correct entrance to the ancient building.)
"I'll go with the blind man." Su Li chuckled to herself. Zhang Qiling's calm and composed face almost broke down because of Hua Hua's words. It was too funny. "If Brother Zhang goes, it'll be easier to lure those barking dogs over as well."
"The ancient building mainly contains mechanical arts and divination techniques, which are essential skills for array masters. There's no need for a password, and I can also find a way to avoid Miluotuo." That's how confident he is in his field of expertise.
“The blind man thinks it’s feasible. Little Ali and the blind man should go and come back quickly. With Little Ali’s skills and the blind man’s abilities, this is a piece of cake.”
After a final discussion, Hei Xiazi and Su Li, along with several men who had passed the Heart-Testing Formation, secretly went to Zhang Family Ancient Building in Banna. The two of them went in to retrieve the knife, while the men waited outside to provide backup.
Fortunately, one of the military bases that Su Li had previously designated for the government to build was nearby. They could enter through official channels without alerting Zhang Tata, who was guarding the area.
"Master, Miss Xiuxiu has arrived." Uncle Wen's voice rang out at the courtyard gate.
The group exchanged glances and ended the conversation.
"Bring her in."
Although Huo Xiuxiu was his childhood sweetheart, he was not ready to let her know about these supernatural things yet, and he couldn't give her the token of passage, so he could only let Uncle Wen bring people in.
