Tomb Raiders: After the Nine Gates Ancestor, they let loose and did whatever they wanted!

The older sister, Zhiyun, who received the "good guy" card, quietly thought: I hope my little brother feels the same way when he takes his medicine to nourish his body...

(???3???)???? ??

In Northeast China during the summer, dawn breaks very early; before the rooster crows, the night has not yet completely faded.

A sliver of dawn appeared on the horizon, as if someone had lightly brushed it across the sky with a paintbrush.

In the dim light, the mountains appeared indistinct, like a hazy ink painting, while the forlorn Zhang Family Ancient Building nestled deep in the dense forest.

The air was filled with the unique freshness of the morning, bringing a sense of inexplicable comfort and tranquility.

In the quiet of the early morning, Xiao Zhang Qiling and Black Glasses had already repaired the damaged house and done a cursory cleaning in preparation for their departure.

The infrastructure construction speed in the south and north is incredibly fast and efficient! ↗

(*′?`*

"Dumb guy, I'll give you this barrier bead, you're the blind guy~ After all, I'm poor~↘"

There are no fixed assets worth protecting; all that's left is an inheritance a hundred years from now.

(;′??Д??`)

Prince enjoying life: Achoo~ Who's talking about me?

(???.???)????

Black Glasses was unusually generous, tossing his barrier bead into Zhang Qiling's arms.

"No." Looking at the hesitant, stammering expression on Black Glasses' face, Xiao Zhang Qiling sensed something was wrong.

They refused outright, but didn't throw the bead back either, in case the blind man dodged it and the bead was wasted.

Junior Official: Today is another day of being thrifty and managing the household well~

(?′?`?)

Seeing that Xiao Zhang Qiling wasn't taking the bait, Black Glasses thought with slight regret, "Why isn't this mute Zhang taking the bait?"

Sigh~ Another way to make money is gone ↘”

Xiao Zhang Qiling's eyes flickered slightly. He seemed to think of something and accepted the bead. He then calmly asked the man in black glasses, "How much?"

o(*≧▽≦)ツ┏━┓ I slapped the table and laughed wildly!

Black Glasses paused slightly upon hearing Zhang Qiling's words, then put his arm around Zhang Qiling's neck like a good buddy.

He said obsequiously, "Hehe~ Dumb~↗ We're practically family, talking about money is too much of a fuss, just give me what you think is fair~"

Xiao Zhang Qiling remained silent and quietly took out a large sum of money as a deposit.

He tapped on the table, signaling to Black Glasses to quickly remove his arm.

?(o_ov)?

The man with the black glasses caught sight of the golden light, sprang to his feet, and his gaze shifted back and forth between Xiao Zhang Qiling and the gold, looking at them over and over again.

Actually, Black Glasses' bottom line was just silver, but he didn't expect Dumb Zhang to be so generous, a hidden tycoon!

$ _ $

"Wow!" Black Glasses exclaimed in a strange, exaggerated voice.

"Zhang the Mute, you're actually this rich?!"

Then, he looked at Xiao Zhang Qiling, then at Jinzi, his gaze shifting back and forth.

"You're just like Ah Xian, always throwing gold instead of silver!"

Black Glasses continued to sigh, his tone filled with envy, a genuine sentiment he couldn't fake!

The man with the black glasses suddenly changed his tone and said self-pityingly, "So, in this family, only I, the blind man, am a penniless nobody~↘"

After saying that, she rubbed her eyes, looking like she was about to cry.

Seeing this, the junior official probably offered some words of comfort...?

"Great value for money." Little Zhang Qiling stood up, preparing to use one barrier bead on the Zhang family's ancient building and another on the small village at the foot of the mountain.

After all, on Zhang's territory, they had provided Zhang Qiling with a considerable amount of material assistance.

Today's little official is a grateful and kind-hearted person~

?(? ? 3?)??

And those seemingly baseless complaints about being poor aren't entirely unfounded; there's some genuine feeling involved!

Back then, the young prince's gold, silver, and valuables were almost entirely lost during his escape.

Initially, he maintained the extravagant spending habits of an aristocrat.

Within a few years, he had squandered all the money and even fell into poverty.

The young prince, unaware of the cost of living since he wasn't in charge of the household, had no choice but to start looking for ways to make money.

Fortunately, if one person is full, the whole family isn't hungry!

It's worth mentioning that Nanxia is now beginning to make a name for himself in the underworld.

While Blackie's appearance fee hasn't yet skyrocketed to the millions it would later command!

At least it ensured a basic standard of living during chaotic times; unfortunately, some employers were simply incompetent.

From this moment on, there are signs that Blackie won't receive the final payment.

In addition, there were the years before he accidentally entered the Bronze Gate and met Wei Wuxian.

Poor blind man, unaware of his mother's existence, and having spent a lot of time and effort on his eyes.

Real money was poured in, but unfortunately, the returns were minimal; now I'm practically penniless! ↘

??Σσ? ?°???)° ??

……

After everything was arranged at the Zhang family's residence, Xiaxia and Xiaoguan boarded the jellyfish-shaped carriage for their return journey.

I also received the Zhisheng user guide:

"Ta-da! The Ghostly Spirit Knows the Way, the puppet dolls are about to return home, squeak and quack."

Please have both passengers take some calming incense to prevent heart attacks, fainting during the journey, or other complications.

Imagine sitting in the spacious and comfortable cabin of a jellyfish sightseeing vehicle, admiring the beautiful scenery outside through the jellyfish's shell.

Whether it's the vast grasslands or the majestic mountain ranges

Or perhaps a shimmering lake, all laid out before you—what a wonderful thing that is! ~↗

A brand new flight journey is about to begin, new friends~ Best of luck!

Black Glasses and Xiao Zhang Qiling hadn't even had a chance to feel curious about the jellyfish-shaped car's semi-transparent structure.

The more I listened to Zhisheng's ethereal voice and her prevention guidelines, the more uneasy I felt.

Not to mention, there's also the preventative measure of Ji-yoon's mischief.

Xiao Guan and Xiaxia: A bad feeling~
