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

Originally, Cheng Ji didn't want to interfere openly with Xiaohua's eight-year-old head of the family.

You have to know that everyone's life trajectory is predetermined. If a tiger is protected and fed with ready-made food every day, it will be difficult for it to survive after being released.

The same goes for Xie Yuchen. Having not experienced these cruelties, how could he take over the entire Xie family alone?

After all, people cannot live their whole lives relying on the help of others.

But Cheng Ji did not choose to stand idly by.

Cheng Ji did not choose to get involved in the internal strife of the Xie family, but if people from other families in the Nine Gates wanted to take advantage of the situation, Cheng Ji would definitely not agree.

But he really underestimated Xie Yuchen's insight. Once when he was dealing with the Li family, Xie Yuchen walked out from behind the Li family.

"Who are you and why are you helping me?" Xie Yuchen, who was only ten years old, stood there, already acting like a superior.

Cheng Ji smiled without answering, just looking at Jie Xiaohua who had grown up.

The two looked at each other for a long time, and after a battle of glances, it was Cheng Ji who withdrew his gaze first.

Cheng Ji turned his hand behind his back and only left a few words for Xie Yuchen when they first met. This was probably what Xie Yuchen wanted.

"When you are truly in charge of the family, come to the Crescent Hotel to find me, and I will tell you everything you want to know."

Time returns to the present.

Xie Yuchen, who had just come out of the Crescent Hotel, got into his own car and was silent for a long time before he coldly told the driver: "Linyi, Shandong, go to the airport now."

More than ten years have passed since that meeting. At first, Xie Yuchen naturally did not trust Cheng Ji, nor could he place all his bets on Cheng Ji, so Xie Yuchen did not give up investigating what happened at that time, nor did he give up looking for Xie Lianhuan.

Of course, he had a new subject of investigation, which was Cheng Ji.

This helped him find the right direction by accident.

As Xie Yuchen's investigation deepened, Cheng Ji's past was revealed bit by bit, and the more Xie Yuchen investigated, the more frightened he became.

This young man, whom he had never heard of before and whom the older generation was extremely wary of, actually ran through the entire Nine Gates, and his figure was behind almost everything.

This is the most terrible.

You know, it's very simple to erase a person's traces, but if this person is a person with extremely profound influence, if you want to erase it so cleanly, even the older generation of the Nine Gates may not be able to do it.

Although he didn't find a direct answer from the Xinyue Hotel just now, through Yin Xinyue's few words, he knew Cheng Ji's current location.

The next step is to meet this old fox who hides the deepest.

When Xie Yuchen rushed over here, Cheng Ji and others had already dug the entrance and entered the place where their plan started.

After Zhang Qiling removed the anti-theft layer, Cheng Ji was the first to enter the tomb. Even Wu Xie, who had been keeping an eye on Cheng Ji, didn't have time to hold him back.

"Aji, don't go so far ahead!"

Wu Xie wanted to chase him in, but was stopped by Wu Sansheng: "You'd better take care of yourself. He has someone following him, so nothing will happen."

Wu Xie was a little confused when Wu Sansheng pulled him like this. He seemed to be unable to understand why Wu Sansheng was not worried about Cheng Ji's safety even though they were both nephews.

But I just vaguely felt that something was wrong, and didn't really realize the problem.

Wu Xie, who has not really seen some of the things in the Nine Gates, naturally has no idea who the people around him are, nor does he know what kind of plan and chessboard he is on now.

Cheng Ji went in first and walked to the big cauldron containing the headless mummy. Zhang Qiling naturally followed closely behind him.

It was the big tripod that Pan Zi jumped into. There were some patterns on it that looked like they were from the Western Zhou Dynasty. It seemed to be an old item that the owner of the tomb not far away had.

Wu Sansheng and his companions naturally did not have the night vision ability of Cheng Ji and his companions, and as mortals they did not have the capital to be so reckless.

Pan Zi took out a few fire starters from his backpack and distributed them to the people present. The large group then went in with the light of the fire and walked to the side of Cheng Ji and Zhang Qiling.

Wu Sanxing walked over and looked at the big tripod in front of Cheng Ji: "How is it, did you see anything?"

He had been in this tomb before, but he did not come down from this place. He just took a rough look at the general situation in the tomb.

The most important thing is to replace the silk book under the nine-headed snake cypress in the main tomb chamber.

Cheng Ji turned around and was about to tell Wu Sanxing not to move, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the unusual movement in the coffin in the middle.

Pan Zi just walked over at the same time as Wu Sanxing, and naturally saw the big cauldron. Out of the tomb robber's instinct, he climbed up on it in a few seconds.

By the time Zhang Qiling and Cheng Ji wanted to stop them, it was too late.

Hearing the movement in the tomb, Cheng Ji's face instantly turned cold: "Get down."

The sound was not loud, but it was loud enough for everyone present to hear.

Pan Zi in the cauldron hadn't made a move yet, but Da Kui, who hadn't had time to get in yet, got anxious first: "Little brat, do you understand? What are you pointing at? You came in and bumped into something dirty. Who are you showing your ugly face to..."

Before Da Kui could finish his words, he was interrupted by Wu Sansheng's roar: "Da Kui!"

Although Da Kui shut up after hearing Wu Sanxing's words, he was still a little unconvinced. He snorted at Cheng Ji and turned his face away.

Compared to Da Kui, Pan Zi has experienced more, so he is naturally better at judging people. Moreover, before the plan started, he had met this young man several times with Wu Sansheng.

Naturally, he knew that this young man was not as ordinary as he had just been introduced. Instead, he was the new leader of the Nine Gates Association who had been in charge of the Crescent Hotel for decades.

Pan Zi didn't say anything and came out of the cauldron as Cheng Ji asked.

Zhang Qiling heard the noise and took a step forward, his eyes fixed on the sarcophagus in the middle.

The tomb owner seemed to sense Zhang Qiling's approach, and the "clucking" sound became louder.

Zhang Qiling frowned as he listened to the bloody corpse in the sarcophagus. He hesitated for a moment and was about to obey when he was grabbed by Cheng Ji who came over.

Although Cheng Ji couldn't speak corpse language, he naturally understood the conversation between the two because he practiced the art of trickery.

After all, King Mu of Zhou had something in his body. After the Corpse-Eating King entered his body, not only did his brain nerves not be destroyed by the poison of the Corpse-Eating King, but he was able to coexist with it.

If King Lu Shang hadn't taken him out of the jade figurine, Bai Zhen might have let him realize his dream of immortality.

But this is not a reason for him to use the threat of coming out of the coffin to force his gods to kneel down to him.

Cheng Ji walked straight forward and knocked the empty bottle of water in his hand towards the sarcophagus.

"Bah—"

The collision between the plastic bottle and the sarcophagus made an extremely low-quality noise, which not only quieted down the future residents in the entire tomb, but even made the sarcophagus that was knocked fall silent.

Cheng Ji leaned forward slightly and whispered to the sarcophagus, "You'd better shut up now, or I'll cut off your head and give it to the one inside to kick around."
