Yunniang took two steps forward, grabbed his throat, and waited for him to say, "Tell me clearly what you want to do."
The bald man looked at the pretty face in front of him as if he had seen a ghost: "Lady, spare me, lady, spare me... I was wrong, I was wrong..."
Yunniang applied a little force with her hands, and the bald man suddenly started coughing uncomfortably.
"Speak properly and listen to my question carefully. What are you doing here?"
The bald man said in horror: "My superiors ordered me to come here to invite Mr. Chen Lufu to come over and reminisce about the past."
"You're looking for my dad, so why are you arresting me?"
The bald man looked embarrassed and began to stammer.
Yunniang glared at the bald man, and he was so frightened that he blurted out everything he knew like a sieve of chaff.
It turns out that the bald man came from an organization called the Red Scarf Army. This organization is both a mercenary group and a gang. It has never had a good reputation in the international field. It has always relied on annexing other small and medium-sized organizations to survive and has no legitimate source of income. After hearing the news of King Sipan's treasure, the leader of the organization went around to find out where there are good treasure hunters. After a few visits, he came to this town. After hearing from the residents of the town, he learned that there was a very powerful treasure hunter living in this town. So he decided to use both soft and hard methods to invite this expert to his territory to discuss the tomb robbery. As for whether he would share the treasure with Chen Lufu after getting it, I'm afraid only God knows.
When Yunniang heard this, she became furious and slapped the bald man in the face, knocking him unconscious again after he had finally woken up.
Although Yunniang had a perverse personality, she was thoughtful. She knew that her father had not yet arranged the entire plan. Judging from the current progress, it would take at least more than a month to complete the preliminary exploration, which meant that the earliest time to enter the tomb would be more than a month later. As a result, there were unexpected forces involved, and there were more than one. This made Yunniang worried, but also excited. She hadn't done anything for a long time, and her hands were itching.
Looking at Yunniang's changing expression, Long Xiangtian said helplessly: "Your appearance reminds me of a person I met recently when I was studying."
Yunniang was stunned: "What kind of person is this?"
"Hu Sanniang."
"Hey! Dabai, watch my fist!"
After throwing these clowns out and letting them go away, Yunniang and Long Xiangtian closed the door.
Yunniang was a little depressed.
Long Xiangtian rarely saw Yunniang like this, so he said, "Why, are you unhappy because your beautiful dream was ruined?"
Yunniang raised her eyelids to look at Long Xiangtian, dragged her chin and muttered, "I thought it would go smoothly this time, but someone messed it up before it even started."
Long Xiangtian suddenly fell silent. After thinking for a while, he said, "Actually, I've always been curious about what Uncle Chen does. He seems to be very busy every day, going out early and coming back late."
Yunniang thought for a long time before she said, "My father was an archaeologist when he was young. Later, because he felt uncomfortable staying in the archaeological institute, he retired early. After retirement, he became a treasure hunter, traveling all over the world for adventures."
"Treasure hunter?" This was the first time Long Xiangtian heard of such a profession.
"Well, some people also call us treasure hunters. We are actually a big family. Our mission is to protect ancient artifacts and excavate ancient tombs that have been unearthed for many years. Our mortal enemy is the tomb robbers, and fierce battles break out every time."
Long Xiangtian nodded, broadening his horizons once again.
The two began to chat casually. In the evening, Yunniang prepared the meal on time, and Chen Lufu also returned home on time.
At the dinner table, Yunniang told Chen Lufu what happened during the day, but Chen Lufu didn't care at all. He told them that these were trivial matters and that they could just be left as usual and there was no need to make a fuss.
Yunniang wanted to talk about the seriousness of the situation, but seeing Chen Lufu's nonchalant expression, she didn't say anything more. Only Long Xiangtian noticed that Chen Lufu's heartbeat suddenly accelerated after Yunniang finished narrating the whole thing, and then returned to normal.
At midnight, Long Xiangtian was on guard and did not fall asleep early. He had a feeling that Chen Lufu would take action tonight.
Sure enough, after Yunniang fell asleep, Chen Lufu slowly walked out of his room. He was no longer dressed in his daytime clothes, but had changed into night clothes. He climbed up the wall in a flash and disappeared from the yard like a nimble monkey.
Long Xiangtian walked out quietly, relying on his extraordinary hearing and eyesight, and followed Chen Lufu closely.
The two of them turned around and finally left the town and headed for a nearby village. Chen Lufu's steps seemed slow, but his speed was surprisingly fast. Long Xiangtian had to use almost 90% of his strength to barely keep up with Chen Lufu. The village next door was not close. There were two mountains between them. It was easy to go down the mountain, but it was much more difficult to go up the mountain. However, this did not seem to be an obstacle for Chen Lufu at all. His speed was not affected at all. On the other hand, Long Xiangtian's speed was obviously much slower when he went up the mountain. However, Long Xiangtian did not feel very tired, because every time he consumed a lot of physical strength, Long Xiangtian would always feel an inexplicable feeling flashing through his body, and the disappeared physical strength would return. Although he felt magical, Long Xiangtian still felt that this would not work. The mountains here were high and steep. If he continued like this, he would be left behind by Chen Lufu sooner or later. Long Xiangtian pondered for a long time and finally set his sights on Chen Lufu's pace.
As he watched, Long Xiangtian discovered the mystery. Chen Lufu was actually moving forward in a very rhythmic pace, and this rhythm was sometimes fast and sometimes slow, as if following something.
Long Xiangtian was puzzled and could only follow suit, imitating the frequency and amplitude of the swing bit by bit.
At first, Long Xiangtian felt a little stumbling, especially when he was climbing the mountain, he was often tripped by the stones under his feet, but as time went on, Long Xiangtian suddenly found that his steps were getting lighter and lighter. The speed that used to require 50% of his strength to reach now only required less than 30%, and the efficiency was nearly doubled. Although he didn't know what happened, Long Xiangtian sensitively felt that there seemed to be a breeze passing over his feet. Every time he took a step, the breeze would push him in the direction of his progress, so that Long Xiangtian's speed suddenly increased.
