Tomb Raider: The Fox's Ways to Seducing the Kirin

Chapter 147 Helping Hei Ye Digest His Food

It was already the evening of the next day when Cheng Ji regained consciousness. The seat next to him had been empty for a while, probably because someone had gotten up while Cheng Ji was still asleep.

When the boy first opened his eyes, he was confused for a moment. He didn't know what day it was. He even felt that he had lost contact with his limbs, as if, except for his head, the other parts of his body no longer belonged to him.

It took him a long time to regain some consciousness. At the same time, scenes from last night came back to him, and Cheng Ji's brain crashed again.

Who can tell him why Zhang Qiling seemed to be possessed last night, tossing and turning over and over again.

He cried and shouted but received no mercy. He even changed his name one after another, and even when he called him dad, it didn't work. In the middle of the night, his voice was so hoarse that he couldn't make a sound. Zhang Qiling reluctantly lifted him up and mercifully carried him to take a bath.

When he thought it was finally over, she patiently dragged him into the bathtub twice more, and only let him go after changing the water for the third time, feeling unsatisfied.

By the time he finally fell asleep, it was already daybreak.

Cheng Ji's thoughts were pulled back to reality. He was naked under the thin blanket, and his skin exposed to the air was covered with scars, blue and purple, especially on his slender white neck.

The boy tried to sit up, and the pain in his waist made him take a deep breath.

After dragging his half-crippled body to sit up and leaning against the bed, he looked around, and his eyes were empty again. He could be trapped in the talisman array one day!

Just looking at the appearance of this formation, it has some of the prototypes of the space formation seen in the Zhang family's ancestral home before, but the skills are not good enough. Both entering and exiting this formation require a key. If you don't find the eye of the formation and force it to break open, it will backfire on the person who set up the formation.

This made Cheng Ji feel troubled. This formation was obviously set by Zhang Qiling, so he couldn't get out now and could only wait for Zhang Qiling to come back. Fortunately, someone had left food on the table beside the bed before leaving, warming it with hot water, so that he would not starve to death in this space after physical labor and a day of sleep.

Halfway through the meal, Cheng Ji suddenly had a terrible guess.

This cage that held him was probably made just to collect the debt he owed for the past half month! If that was the case, then when would he run away if not now?

Cheng Ji shuddered just thinking about the tragic scene of last night. If this continued for fifteen days, nine lives would probably not be enough for him to live.

Cheng Ji did it right away. He carefully moved his broken body out of bed. Just as he was about to lift the quilt and change his clothes, his movements froze and he was dumbfounded again.

He finally understood what was wrong with his feeling just now.

Zhang Qiling was already very skilled in using the space array before. He could imitate it and draw it easily when he was in the Queen Mother of the West Palace. How could he draw it so crudely this time?

Because this array is not an ordinary space array, it is a matching array. There is also a taboo symbol attached to the bottom of this space array, which actually locked his space!

Cheng Ji was almost so angry that he laughed. There were no extra clothes in the room, and his space was locked. A certain Patriarch Zhang had a good plan. He had made preparations for both situations. Even if he found the eye of the formation and broke it, he couldn't go out naked!

While Cheng Ji was still sulking, there was a wave in the space and Zhang Qiling walked in from outside. He happened to run into the angry boy wrapped in a thin blanket who was about to get up.

Their eyes met, and Cheng Ji snorted and looked away first.

Zhang Qiling walked over, held the boy sitting on the bed in his arms, and skillfully coaxed him, "Baby."

When Cheng Ji heard Zhang Qiling calling him, he looked up at the instigator with a half-smile, his voice still surprisingly hoarse: "Mr. Zhang. You have learned well now. Others lock the door when they go out, but you directly lock the space when you go out. You don't call me at ordinary times, but you call me baby when something happens?"

When Zhang Qiling came, he brought the boy's clothes with him. He casually peeled the boy out of the quilt and dressed the boy with the clothes he had brought carefully, as if he were treating a porcelain doll.

After finishing the work at hand, Zhang Qiling embraced the boy again and walked out the door, explaining as he walked: "I didn't say anything. You will be angry when you wake up. I can't find you if you run away. That's why I set up the talisman array."

Regardless of right or wrong, the best thing to do is to pass on the blame first.

As expected, Cheng Ji's anger was successfully diverted by Zhang Qiling's words, but he didn't consider whether Hei Xia Zi outside could bear it for a while.

After removing the talisman formation, the two walked out of the door, and coincidentally ran into Hei Xia Zi who was walking towards them in a lazy manner.

When Hei Xia Zi saw the two men, he was about to raise his hand to say hello. Just when he stretched out his hand halfway, he happened to meet Cheng Ji's fiery gaze.

In an instant, he remembered that he saw Zhang Qiling walking out of the room at noon today, and he came up with a plan to play a trick on him.

But I swear to God, this talisman formation was not what he thought of. He was the one who was with the four fools from the Zhang family today... The four members of the Zhang family were lying in the corner together to eavesdrop on Xiao Li's intelligence network gossip, and they happened to hear about Zhang Qiling and Cheng Ji's bet for half a month.

I'm just kindly reminding you to take out Cheng Ji's clothes, because he can't get out without clothes.

Who would have thought that the Zhang family's patriarch, who usually looked very serious, could easily copy the talismans he saw in the Zhang family's library in his mind and locked it tightly with Cheng Ji.

But looking at Cheng Ji's murderous look now, there is a high probability that his pants have been completely sold out by this mute.

The instinctive desire to survive made Hei Xia Zi make a decision instantly without any hesitation, and turned around and ran in the opposite direction.

But two legs can never beat a cheater, he had only run two steps.

"Bang——" it crashed into the transparent wall that Cheng Ji had casually made.

Hei Xia Zi, who was forced to stop, rubbed his forehead that was red from being hit, turned his head and said helplessly: "My lord, you are taking revenge on the wrong person. As the young master of the Qingqiu Nine-tailed Clan, you can't help your relatives and ignore the law. The reason why you were locked up and the talisman formation were all made up by the mute. They have nothing to do with me, Hei Xia Zi."

Cheng Ji walked over with his arms folded, raised his eyebrows and said, "So it was his idea to hide all my clothes?"

Hei Xiazi pretended to be flattering and put on a brilliant smile, twisting his original true thoughts without blinking: "Hei Ye, I really couldn't refuse the dumb man's plea, and I gave him some advice because I felt so pitiful for him. He cried so hard at noon, tears streaming down his face, for fear that his wife would run away. As a brother, I should give him some advice, right?"

Cheng Ji nodded with a smile and whispered four words to Hei Xia Zi.

"Xun"

"——Wind rope"

A gust of wind blew by and gathered into a solid column of air, which tied the black bear's limbs and hung it upside down on a tree nearby.

"Hey hey hey!" Before Hei Xia Zi could make any move, the sky was spinning and the world was turning upside down.

Cheng Ji narrowed his eyes and smiled at Hei Xia Zi: "The meal that Hei Ye prepared yesterday looked good. The fat on his belly is showing. Don't be polite. I will help Hei Ye digest the food."
