Chapter 4 Zhang Qiling 3
Chapter 4 Zhang Qiling 3
“Master, the young patriarch of the Zhang family is so pitiful. Zhang Qishan and Zhang Rishan are heartless bastards.”
Qingyue narrowed her eyes, her gaze filled with danger.
"The dead have ways to torment the dead."
Once she finishes the Underworld, she'll let it have some fun with Zhang Qishan's soul, and she'll also deal with the Nine Gates. She's a real master at causing trouble.
To explore the secrets of the world, to expose the secrets of the world, how can there be no dead people? Dead people should look like dead people.
Qingyue moved everything on the table aside and waved her hand.
A person and the surrounding scene appeared on the clean desktop.
"What is this?" Xi En craned his neck.
"The scene where the Zhang family patriarch is located."
Qingyue stared at the screen.
The scene depicts Zhang Qiling polishing his black gold ancient sword in a courtyard.
He paused, looked up and glanced around, but couldn't sense anyone's presence. Why did he feel like someone was watching him?
"Dumb man, what are you doing?"
A man wearing black sunglasses and an apron came out, carrying a spatula in his hand.
"No."
Zhang Qiling shook his head slightly, his gaze fixed on the air. There was nothing there, but he was convinced that he hadn't misjudged the situation.
Seeing that he couldn't come up with any more words, the man in black glasses ignored him.
"Dinner's ready, go and bring out the plates."
Zhang Qiling put away his weapon and went to the kitchen, where bowls of rice and plates of vegetables were already laid out.
With a flick of the spatula, the plate covering the pot was lifted off the stove.
Upon seeing the familiar dishes, Zhang Qiling pursed her lips.
It was green pepper and shredded pork again. His cheeks puffed out a little; he didn't want to eat it…
"Hey, you're starting to complain now."
Seeing the meaning in his eyes, Hei Xiazi was unconvinced.
"Hey, my specialty is stir-fried green peppers and pork. Don't even think about anything else. If you can't cook, you eat my food and use my things all day long, and you still complain about my stir-fried green peppers and pork."
"It's stuck with you."
Zhang Qiling uttered a few words calmly.
Black Glasses paused in his speech. Okay, although he paid most of the expenses with Zhang the Mute's card, he still put in the effort, didn't he? It wasn't easy for him to serve him all day long!
Zhang Qiling knows nothing and has only a superficial understanding of common sense. He's the one who's in charge of everything. He's already struggling so much, so it's only natural that he gets a little money!
"Eat your food while you're mute!"
Zhang Qiling slowly raised her small face to meet his gaze.
When Black Glasses saw this, he knew that Black Glasses had started cursing him with his face again. The meaning in his eyes was so dirty that it could be banned if spoken aloud.
He lowered his head guiltily and ate his fill of his favorite stir-fried green peppers and pork.
Seeing his expression, Zhang Qiling decided not to continue scolding him and ate the green pepper and shredded pork dish that she had been eating for years with slight disdain.
...
Seeing this, Qingyue smiled. The two were quite interesting; one was introverted, and the other was active. They didn't seem out of place together at all.
"I'm quite happy so far."
He must have lost his memory again.
Xi En asked, "Master, should we send someone to protect the Zhang family patriarch?"
With a wave of her hand, Qingyue caused the screen to disappear, restoring the original desktop background.
"No need. Sending people there will only arouse suspicion and be counterproductive. Just be careful and don't let him get trapped in a dead end. He's quite comfortable right now."
Xi En nodded his snake head.
a few days later.
After arranging the company's affairs, Qingyue went out with peace of mind and began her descent into the tomb.
Each time she found a grave, she would blow it up, completely filling in the underground cemetery. These graves went unnoticed, as they were all located inside mountains in remote villages, and from the outside, they were completely invisible as graves, with only a closed entrance.
Others were unaware of this information, but the tomb raiders, having heard rumors, came to investigate.
They discovered that the tomb had been blasted flat, and even if they dug an entrance, they couldn't get back in.
Who would do such a thing?
Black Glasses and Zhang Qiling also received the news, and the two exchanged a glance.
"Get down before the tomb explodes."
"Ah."
Zhang Qiling's expression was solemn. He didn't care about the bombed grave, because he had already been there. Now he was going to visit the grave he hadn't visited since he lost his memory.
"Pack your things, we're leaving soon."
Black Glasses patted Zhang Qiling's arm, and the two went to the bedroom together to quickly pack two changes of clothes, some compressed biscuits, and water.
...
In an unnamed underground cemetery.
Xi En looked around and said, "Master, this tomb is too simple. It's much worse than the previous tombs. It's not a continuous tunnel, is it?"
"No, we've always been moving from the outside inwards."
The principle is somewhat similar to the spiral structure of a mosquito coil.
As she walked, Qingyue saw many forks in the road ahead. Choosing the wrong path might mean returning the way she came, or getting trapped in this maze.
Based on his intuition, he chose the fourth path.
The fourth path can be misinterpreted as a dead end, and a normal person would not choose it easily.
It's because Qingyue is abnormal.
She didn't deliberately soften her footsteps.
Outside the cave.
“Listen, blind man.” Zhang Qiling pulled back the man with black glasses who was about to walk forward.
Black Glasses glanced at him, then lay down on the ground, his ear close to the earth. He twitched his ear slightly and heard a soft, clattering sound. It was very faint, but in the empty cave, the sound was particularly clear.
"Someone is coming; there's only the sound of one person's footsteps."
He stood up, pulled out the dagger stuck between his legs, seemingly effortlessly, but his eyes behind his sunglasses were extremely vigilant.
"Ah."
Zhang Qiling gripped the hilt of the knife behind his back, his gaze dangerously fixed on the cave entrance.
The "thump thump thump" sound grew closer.
The two took a few steps back in unison; whether they were enemies or friends was still unknown.
Inside the cave entrance.
Xi En flicked her forked tongue: "There are other people here."
anyone?
Who could be so capable of walking in? That person must be quite skilled. Is he a member of the Nine Gates or a foreigner?
Qingyue quickened her pace and soon appeared in front of Zhang Qiling and Black Glasses.
Seeing who was inside made Qingyue's eyes widen a little.
How did those two end up here?
Zhang Qiling and Black Glasses were also surprised to find that the person who entered was a woman, who was quite pretty and was going down into the tomb alone. Could she be someone's employee?
How could a woman who comes to a cemetery alone not be capable? Besides, she was clean from head to toe, much cleaner than they are now in their disheveled state, which further suggests that her abilities are unfathomable.
Her aura was not that of an ordinary person.
"Young lady, going into the tomb alone?" Black Glasses asked tentatively, fiddling with a dagger.
"And this too."
Qingyue raised her left hand, on which hung a white snake.
Xi En flicked her forked tongue at them.
Oh dear, what a coincidence!
These two are the same two hilarious duo we saw the other day!
Black Glasses hadn't expected her to give that answer.
Zhang Qiling coldly told her, "It's dangerous here, leave."
The entrance is a maze, but the danger level isn't too high. However, things might be different if you go further in.
Upon hearing this, Qingyue looked Zhang Qiling up and down.
