Early in the morning, Jiang Cheng was woken up by Xu Dingjia.
As soon as he opened the door, this guy burst into the room with big and small bags, smelling like a mixture of various foods.
"What are you doing?" Jiang Cheng asked with a frown.
"Of course we are preparing food!" Xu Dingjia said matter-of-factly, "Isn't the orphanage in the suburbs? Everyone will be hungry when we get there."
"You are the only one who can eat like this!" Jiang Cheng was furious and lectured: "Do you think we are all just losers?"
"Yes, I have to prepare some for you." Xu Dingjia said suddenly, these large bags of food were enough for him alone.
"What a bastard." Jiang Cheng held his forehead and raised his voice uncontrollably, "When you get there, there will be a place to eat. Why don't you get ready now! We're going to the suburbs, not the wild!"
"Really?" Xu Dingjia realized later and suddenly complained: "You didn't tell me earlier!"
"I..." A blue vein appeared on Jiang Cheng's forehead, and he almost couldn't help but beat the other person.
Xu Dingjia was seen throwing everything on his body out the door in the blink of an eye, leaving only the backpack he was carrying.
The backpack looked hard, and it didn't look like it contained food. Xu Dingjia asked suspiciously, "You probably brought the cooking utensils with you, right?"
"Am I that kind of person?" Xu Dingjia asked seriously.
"Yes!" Jiang Cheng replied seriously.
Xu Dingjia shook his head and sighed: "Ignorant humans."
Jiang Cheng sneered.
"You don't believe me?" Xu Dingjia almost jumped up, took off his backpack and said, "I'll let you see it!"
While unzipping his backpack, Xu Dingjia said: "As a descendant of the Heavenly Master and a descendant of a real person, will I be the kind of loser who only knows how to eat? Let you see... "
As he spoke, he took out a pan from his backpack.
Jiang Cheng rolled his eyes.
"This... this is for self-defense!" Xu Dingjia tried his best to argue, but threw the pan out the door with all his strength. In the end, he luckily poured out all the contents of the bag and said, "Take a good look, these are all things that will come in handy when the time comes."
After hearing some scattered noises, Jiang Cheng decided to give the other party some face and looked down. He found that there were a lot of things piled on the ground, and they didn't seem to be related to eating.
"An engineer shovel, a Swiss army knife, a rope, and... a black donkey's hooves! You are going to rob a tomb!" Jiang Cheng became even more angry and cursed: "Can you be more serious? We are looking for clues, so we can't do this. Is that so?"
"No, no." Xu Dingjia shook his head and said, "You really misunderstood me this time."
"Oh?" Jiang Cheng stared at Xu Dingjia, secretly making up his mind to pick up the engineer shovel on the ground and beat him to death if he got mad again.
Xu Dingjia said: "Where do you think that orphanage is? It was once Lu Fuyuan's lair. It is very likely that the other party is hiding in it. If we are not prepared, what if we meet the other party?"
The other party's words made sense. Jiang Cheng's mood stabilized a little, but he said: "Then just bring something for self-defense. You are going too far."
Of course Xu Dingjia had already thought about this question and replied: "If you think about it carefully, if the clue is so easy to obtain, why did Chu Yan leave it in an orphanage so far away instead of getting it back by herself?"
Jiang Cheng finally began to think seriously. Indeed, as Xu Dingjia said, if it was just a general clue, it shouldn't be so troublesome. Moreover, considering the relationship between the orphanage and Lu Fuyuan, it is indeed necessary to make various preparations. Unable to find a reason to refute, Jiang Cheng had no choice but to let him go and not bother arguing anymore.
"By the way, Li Feng has arrived. Get dressed quickly and get ready to go." Xu Dingjia said before leaving.
"So early?" Jiang Cheng looked out the window subconsciously. It was so gray that it was difficult to tell the time. He had no choice but to look at his watch again and found that it was only half past six.
"Go early and come back early. God knows if there will be anything going on inside that will delay the time." Xu Dingjia replied.
Jiang Chenghu asked: "Don't you just come back later? Why are you so afraid of night?"
Xu Dingjia smiled bitterly and said: "There are too many unexplainable things in this city. It's your first time here, so it's better to be careful."
Jiang Cheng looked at the mysterious look on the other party's face, remembered what happened yesterday, and pulled Xu Dingjia back when he had walked outside the door.
"Please explain to me clearly what happened to the 'bad luck' that happened to me?" Jiang Cheng asked seriously, "You also said that there is a hidden danger in this trip. What if that 'bad luck' happens to me?" What if they find me again? If something happens again, I don’t even know how I died.”
Xu Dingjia felt Jiang Cheng's arms trembling. Yesterday's incident was indeed very thrilling, and the other party's behavior afterwards was a bit suspicious, and there were faint signs of schizophrenia.
Although in terms of "suspiciousness", it was Xu Dingjia who misunderstood Jiang Cheng. However, his basic guess was still correct, Jiang Cheng was really scared. However, the situation Jiang Cheng encountered was rather complicated and could not be explained clearly in a few words. Xu Dingjia thought for a while and decided to appease the other party first. If the next thing goes smoothly, then this problem can be solved calmly.
"About your 'bad luck', actually... how should I put it..." Xu Dingjia pondered.
Jiang Cheng listened carefully.
Xu Dingjia patted Jiang Cheng's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, this 'bad luck' won't hurt you yet. Do you still remember what happened yesterday? Before the ceiling fell, you suddenly fell down for no reason. This is you. Your 'luck'... let's use this word. Your 'luck' is fighting against your 'bad luck'. That's why you can escape with no danger every time."
Jiang Cheng felt a little more relaxed, but still asked uneasily: "Are you telling the truth?"
Xu Dingjia nodded and said: "You are a very strange person. You are obviously 'bad luck', but your life is surprisingly tough. Ordinary people would have died many times when they encountered this situation, but you are actually alive and well, even injured. No!"
Jiang Cheng thought about it carefully and it was really like this. Looking back on the past few days in Yilin City, although bad luck continued, he was able to save the day every time. Such an incredible experience may not be encountered by ordinary people in their lifetime, but he has caught up with it.
"It's just..." Xu Dingjia suddenly said again.
"Just what?" Jiang Cheng asked hurriedly.
Xu Dingjia thought for a while and said: "It's just that you are only temporarily safe now. Again, staying in Yilin City for a long time will not be good for you. When things here are resolved, you must leave quickly. As long as you leave , all problems will no longer be problems.”
"This city? Cui Benshan seems to have said that this is a 'legendary city'. What does this mean? Is it also related to my 'bad luck'?" Jiang Cheng asked curiously, thinking of this.
