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

Cheng Ji reached out his hand and gently soothed the white snake's emotions, then said: "Then what are you going to do? Two people sneaking around in this deserted place in the middle of the night."

When asked this question, Huo Xiaohui, who had just been infatuated with him, managed to regain some of her sanity. When she spoke again, her tone was alert: "Who are you? Anyone who can find this place is definitely not an ordinary person."

Hei Xiazi put his arm on Huo Zhongshu's shoulder and said with a smile: "Us. The three of us were chased here by our enemies. We got lost in the desert and were finally brought here by Haizi."

Since the two siblings of the Huo family were chosen, they were certainly not people who could be easily fooled. They did not believe Hei Xia Zi's words at all and naturally would not say anything else easily.

Cheng Ji estimated the time and was too lazy to waste time talking to the two Huo brothers and sisters. He casually picked up a lighter in his hand and played with it from time to time.

The sparks from the lighter flickered, making Cheng Ji's originally harmless face look somewhat enchanting and mysterious, making people feel cold under their feet.

"You can choose not to tell me. Anyway, we promised Mrs. Huo that we would take you out. But if you don't cooperate, I won't let you ruin my business. Just stay here forever."

Huo Zhongshu was the only one among all the junior classes here who had been out. At that time, Cheng Ji found old lady Huo, brought the news and made the promise. How could old lady Huo, such a caring person, just make a verbal promise? Not long after, she found Zhang Qishan and asked to see the Huo family's children.

At that time, Zhang Qishan and Er Yuehong were almost at odds and he really needed the support of the Huo family. He had no choice but to accept the offer and promised to bring a child out for Mrs. Huo to see.

It was also at that time that Huo Zhongshu learned that someone had promised to rescue them, so he gave up the idea of ​​going out with Huo Xiaohui and decided to wait here for the person who had made the promise to come and take them out together.

So when Cheng Ji said this, Huo Zhongshu's eyes lit up unconsciously, and his tone was a little anxious: "You said you are the one who took us out?"

But as soon as he finished speaking, the light in his eyes dimmed a lot, and his hands fell down weakly: "Impossible, you can't be."

"Why am I not?" Cheng Ji turned his wrist, put the lighter back into the space, and asked with a smile.

"That was ten years ago. How old were you ten years ago? Eight or nine years old. You were still playing house at eight or nine years old, right?" Huo Zhongshu's tone was full of doubt, and he was half-believing and half-doubting what Cheng Ji had just said.

As soon as Cheng Ji said this, before he could say anything, Hei Xia Zi beside him couldn't help laughing out loud: "Let's not talk about how old he is, just look at your conclusion. Weren't you dragged here to draw blueprints when you were a teenager? Only you are allowed to be geniuses, and no one else can do it?"

"That's different..." Huo Zhongshu muttered softly.

"How are they different? They are almost the same. But by the way, how old do you think these two are?" Hei Xia Zi asked with interest.

"Eighteen or nineteen."

Hei Xia Zi sneered when he heard this answer: "The taller one can be your father."

"What about the other one?" Huo Zhongshu's brain froze when he heard Hei Xia Zi's words, and he continued with some disbelief.

"As for the other one, it's not too much to say that he is your ancestor." Hei Xia Zi replied with a smile.

Huo Zhongshu felt more and more uncomfortable the more he listened to this, and he always felt that something was wrong: "Why are you cursing at me?"

Hei Xia Zi shrugged and said nothing.

Some things may be said and mentioned often, but no one will believe them if the facts are placed in front of them.

Just like these people, although they have heard some secrets about immortality here, and know that there may really be immortals in this world, they still want to let an immortal person stand in front of them.

Even if you tell him directly that this is the immortal person who has lived for hundreds or thousands of years, I'm afraid he won't believe it.

It's human nature, and Huo Zhongshu is no exception.

Cheng Ji didn't point it out, and asked directly: "What stage are you at now? The blueprints have been drawn, and the repair work has been completed. What will you be assigned to do next?"

Huo Zhongshu thought that this person looked young, but in fact he was already in his twenties or thirties. After hearing Cheng Ji's question, he hesitated for a moment and decided to tell him everything: "Now that the building has been repaired, there is nothing left for us to do. The only thing left is the house where the deep pit is."

"But because of that incident, the person in charge drove us all to the periphery and didn't allow us to enter that place again, nor did they allow us to go back. They said they had notified the Buddha..."

Cheng Ji raised his eyes slightly when he heard this: "You mean you have informed the Buddha? When did it happen?"

"Today during the day, Mrs. Huo told us to contact her if we see anything unusual, but now all our ways of contacting the Nine Gates have been cut off. We have no other options, so we had to come up with this last resort." Huo Zhongshu sighed.

"Let's go and take a look at that deep pit. Lead the way." Cheng Ji made the decision without hesitation.
