The Tale of the Kraken

Chapter 281 The Mysterious Box

After Gu Menghan left, Yuan Mu sat for a while, and then left too.Before leaving, he deliberately stopped and said to Yang Yang, "I know you want to help, and I am very grateful, but you must know that our current manpower is limited, and you are their target, I have no choice but to let you Some sacrifices were made, and I hope you understand."

"I know." Yang Yang looked at his apologetic expression, laughed and said, "I'm not such a stingy person, I know your difficulties, and thank you for taking care of me.

I will pay attention to these things myself. During this period of time, you are busy with your work. If I have nothing to do, I will not leave the store. If I have something to go out, I will call you and call Chi Dun. "

For his cooperative attitude, Yuan Mu felt a little embarrassed. He reached out and patted Yang Yang's shoulder, and said, "It's only been a little over a year, and you are much more mature than before."

Yuan Mu's tone didn't sound like a friend, but more like an elder.

But based on his age of thousands of years, although he looks like a child, Yang Yang accepted it without any grievances. He smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "This year's more than my whole life." There are many things that have happened, and it should grow up.”

"Then pay attention to your own safety. I have something to do and I will leave first." As an old monster for thousands of years, he really didn't have much softness to continue to comfort Yang Yang. After hearing his answer, he explained own next thing.

Knowing that Yuan Mu is actually very busy, especially at this time, Yang Yang nodded hastily and said, "Well, I know, then go get busy first!"

"I'm leaving." Yuan Mu said, looked at Yang Yang again, and then turned to leave.

After he left, Yang Yang stood there for a while, watching his figure leave the alley.

Then when he turned around to go back to the store, he suddenly found that at some point, Ning Yuan had already come out from the next door.Noticing his gaze, Ning Yuan smiled and came over to say hello: "Good morning."

"You got up so early today?" Yang Yang, who really had nothing to talk about, had to forcefully say, "Are you going to go in and sit down and have something to eat?"

Ning Yuan didn't take his obvious behavior of looking for words out of words, but said, "I didn't get up early one day, but today I have something on my mind and I can't sleep."

Knowing what he was referring to, Yang Yang didn't say anything, just nodded.I really don't want to say more.

Seeing that he didn't want to say more, Ning Yuan didn't say anything more, but pointed to the dim sum shop not far away and said, "Let's go in? I happened to get up early and wanted to find something to eat, but the current situation, I It's better not to go out."

"Well, that's exactly what I want to tell you." Hearing what he said, Yang Yang nodded and said, "Just now Yuan Mu came here to explain that he told us not to go out recently."

"I see." Without asking why Yuan Mu made such a request, Ning Yuan quietly accepted the request, and then said with a smile

"Since I can't go out, I will leave my food for these few days to you!"

Hearing his words, Yang Yang finally laughed, nodded and said: "All right, as long as you don't mind the young master."

"How dare I dislike someone who cares about my food! As my father often said, it's good to have something to eat." Ning Yuan smiled and said: "It's just that I don't have to go out at other times, but every day Going to see my uncle once can never be saved.”

What he said reminded Yang Yang that, unlike his own carelessness, Ning Yuan still had an uncle to visit. Although he had a professional nurse, he didn't need Ning Yuan to take care of him, but as a nephew, he worked so hard every day. Looking at his uncle without hindrance, not to mention his uncle himself, even an outsider like himself seemed a little moved.

"Well, why don't you take Chi Dun with you when you don't go out?" Yang Yang thought for a while and said, "I've already told Yuan Mu that if you must go out, it's safer to bring Chi Dun with you. Firstly, he is free, and secondly, his cultivation is not weak."

"Really?" Ning Yuan heard them say that Chi Dun cultivated the Tao of Longevity more than once, but he didn't know what it was, but from the literal meaning, it should mean being able to have a long lifespan Bar?

But for Ning Yuan, who didn't know much about the sects of monasticism, he had never seen Chi Dun do anything with his own eyes, and always felt that Chi Dun was just a monk with a pure heart and asceticism, and his personality did fit Ning Yuan's impression.

"Really." Yang Yang nodded, remembering that he had seen him fight in Xiangxi before, so he said, "He is very good at fighting, otherwise, I would not nod if I asked him to accompany Yuan Mu. promise."

"Then I'm relieved." Ning Yuan said, laughing, as long as he can go to see his uncle, he doesn't mind who goes with him at all.

What's more, compared to other people, Chi Dun is actually a very good candidate. First of all, he doesn't talk much. As long as he is given a game console or mobile phone, he can keep silent. Now I heard Yang Yang say that his fighting ability It's passable, it's the perfect bodyguard talent - can fight, talk less, and don't like to make trouble.

"By the way, I've been busy recently, and I didn't ask you, how is your uncle?" After what happened to Dr. Chen, things happened one after another. Yang Yang and the others were already devastated, and there was no time to care about other things at all. Naturally, he never asked about Ning Yuan's uncle's condition. Now that it happened to be brought up, Yang Yang asked.

"Thank you for your concern. My uncle's condition has stabilized now." Hearing his concerned tone, Ning Yuan smiled and said.

The two of them were talking at the entrance of the dim sum shop, and the rising sun slowly filled their bodies with golden red light. At this moment, Yang Yang realized that the two had been standing at the entrance for a while, so he said, " Let's go in? Let Xue'er get you something to eat, and guests will come to your door in a while."

"Well, good." Ning Yuan nodded when he heard the words, raised his hand to look at the time and said, "Before you know it, it's almost nine o'clock, go in quickly, I'm about to starve to death."

When he said this, Yang Yang realized that he hadn't actually eaten breakfast, so he nodded and said, "Well, I happen to have something to eat too."

After saying this, the two looked at each other and smiled, then turned and entered the dim sum shop.

In the days that followed, Yang Yang and Ning Yuan hardly ever went out of the alley, except that Ning Yuan would clock in on time every day and take Chi Dun to the hospital to visit his uncle.

At other times, the two of them stayed in the alley obediently according to Yuan Mu's words.Never going out for a step, after Hong Yuan heard it, she specially asked someone to send two pieces of cross-stitch, and joked that

"Since the two of you are acting like ladies and gentlemen, it would be a waste not to embroider."

This kind of attitude of making it clear that watching the excitement is not a big deal made the two of them very unhappy, but they couldn't do anything to her.

Not to mention that she is a girl, even if it is a boy, the two of them together probably can't beat Hong Yuan's one finger.

The two people on this side were trapped in the alley and couldn't go out, while on the other side, the others were too busy.

In the first few days, Yuan Mu and the others could still call Yang Yang a few times to care about their living conditions. Later, when they contacted Yun Chang, they had no time to care about him.

This kind of life lasted for a while, especially when Yang Yang knew that they seemed to have started to investigate the mastermind behind these things through Yun Chang's relationship, he almost never got any news from Yuan Mu and Ying Long.

On the one hand, he was worried about the safety of several people, and on the other hand, he also knew that Lu Shi's matter should be resolved as soon as possible. If their progress goes well, even Lu Shi's matter will be resolved well.

Until one day, Yang Yang finally got tired of staying in the snack shop. Under the constant demands of the little fox, he agreed to go out for dinner with Ning Yuan. After the latter came back from visiting his uncle in the hospital, Yang Yang took the little fox out of the alley mouth, and got into his car.

In the car, Chi Dun still looked paralyzed, playing with his mobile phone with his head down, and when he saw Yang Yang getting into the car, he looked up at him and said hello.

Due to the special circumstances, this time the few people did not go all out to find delicious food as usual, but found a nearby place with a good reputation and finished their meal. Afterwards, there were no other activities, but went straight to Back to the dim sum shop.

Although the little fox felt that he was not enjoying himself, he remembered that it was a special period, so he didn't say anything.Due to the traffic jam on the road, it was already night when they returned to the dim sum shop.After saying goodbye to Chi Dun and the others at the entrance of the alley, Yang Yang and Ning Yuan walked in quickly.

"Thank you today." Yang Yang stood at the door of the dim sum shop, turned to Ning Yuan and said, "I will invite you next time."

"Okay!" Regarding his words, Ning Yuan nodded and said, "But it may not work in the near future, we'd better wait for this matter to be resolved, and we can talk about it after Yuan Mu releases our foot restraint."

Yang Yang laughed when he heard what he said, and said, "That's fine, I won't tell you so much, I'll go in first."

"Well, let's go." Ning Yuan nodded and said.

"Bang——" At this moment, a muffled sound suddenly came from the corner, which startled the two of them. They looked at each other and looked towards the place where the sound came from. , I don’t know when a box appeared, and that sound came from the box.

"Who put this here?" Yang Yang swallowed, looking at the box with some horror, and asked.However, no one answered his question at this time. In fact, he himself had no idea who he was asking this question at all.

"Do you want to open it and have a look?" Ning Yuan, who was on the side, finally asked after staring at the box for a long time.

"But..." Yang Yang hesitated. At this moment, the box that appeared out of nowhere is indeed a very strange thing.

But on the other hand, the reason why Yuan Mu told them not to leave the alley must be that it is very safe inside, so similarly, the boxes that appeared inside must also be safe, right?
Yang Yang thought so, but still did not take a step forward.Ning Yuan looked at the box, then at Yang Yang, and finally said, "I'll call Chi Dun and ask him to come over. I think it's better for us not to open this box ourselves." "Okay." Yang Yang clicked Nodding, agreeing with him.
