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

Two hours later, at the Huo family's door.

Zhang Qiling leaned against the gate of the Huo family and watched the boy walk out of the Huo family. He did not ask what the boy said in the Huo family.

The boy also tacitly did not open his mouth to explain, but changed the subject: "Where are you going to leave Changsha tomorrow, brother?"

Zhang Qiling walked up to the young man and walked with him for a while before replying, "We are going to Jinan."

Almost instantly, Cheng Ji understood Zhang Qiling's intention.

He wanted to find the five tombs recorded in the silk book left by Tie Miansheng.

The map in the silk book records in detail the specific locations of the tombs of the five relatives of King Lu Shang who took the corpse-eating pill. Although a thousand years have passed, it is not difficult to see that the five Lu tombs are all located in Shandong.

I think Zhang Qiling wanted to deal with this eternal problem left to him by the ancestors of the Zhang family.

Cheng Ji turned sideways and asked with a smile: "There is a train from Changsha to there, why don't I arrange it?"

"Yeah." Zhang Qiling's reply was still concise, without any extra words.

"You trust me so much, aren't you afraid that I will sell you out, brother?"

"will not."

Cheng Ji raised his eyebrows: "Why, do you think I can't beat you?"

Zhang Qiling raised his eyes and looked at the boy: "You won't hurt me."

It was another straight ball, catching Cheng Ji off guard.

No, don't worry about whether he likes men or women. Handsome guys, you can't flirt with people just because you are handsome. Be careful that your future wife will be angry with you and jump out a few years earlier.

Cheng Ji's eyes were somewhat evasive, and he said hastily: "See you tomorrow, I'll go back first, bye brother!"

After saying that, Zhang Qiling was left alone standing there at a loss, wondering over and over what he had said wrong to make the young man unhappy.

Cheng Ji, who was running all the way home, was successfully stopped by Cheng's father. He was taken to the study and given another round of loving care.

Father Cheng looked at the boy who was becoming more and more refined, and felt a little disappointed: "Do you remember what you promised me?"

Cheng Ji was somewhat confused by his father, and said puzzledly: "I promised you that I will not ask about the Nine Gates' affairs after the mine matter has been resolved. I will leave Changsha tomorrow."

"Leaving Changsha, not caring about the Nine Gates, but caring about the Zhang family's affairs? Cheng Ji, your mother and I have worked so hard for you to grow up healthy, and you are letting us down like this?"

Hearing Cheng's father mention the Zhang family, Cheng Ji's eyes narrowed suddenly: "Father, how do you know the Zhang family?"

He was not surprised that his father knew about the Nine Gates, and he was not surprised that the Qi family knew the destiny through the Nine Gates.

But the problem is that even the Nine Gates only know a little about the Zhang family, so how did Cheng's father know that the person traveling with him today was a member of the Zhang family.

Moreover, he learned from his father that day about the fortune that the Qi family had calculated for him, and he specifically asked Qi Tiezui about it during his trip to the mine.

The Qi family never calculated his fortune!

"Father, how do you know the Zhang family?" Cheng Ji thought so and asked.

Father Cheng's eyes were filled with regret, and he said with eyes wide open: "How should I know? Not only do I know about the Zhang family, I also know that the one who left with you today is the current patriarch of the Zhang family, Zhang Qiling, and I also know about the hundred-year chess game that the Nine Sects are going to set up!"

"I also knew that you would take the initiative to join the game, and later participate in it as Qi Yu, the adopted son of the Qi family, and finally die in their game!"

Cheng Ji was stunned by his father's words.

Seeing Cheng Ji's stunned look, Cheng's father shook his head and slowly talked to Cheng Ji about the Cheng family.

Fortune telling is divided into two parts, prediction and divination. The Qi family is known for divination, which is divided into Taiyi Shenshu for predicting the situation, Qimen Tongjia and Liushenke for selecting auspicious days, and the six meanings and plum blossoms for divination.

The Cheng family is good at fortune-telling, and they can predict a person's fortune and possible events through his birth date. In addition, the Cheng family has a unique skill, which can be regarded as a life-saving skill, that is, to use their own fortune-telling skills to go back to the past and change some irreversible outcomes.

People whose fate is changed by this secret technique will appear to die young, and will not return to normal until their fate is completely changed.

In that life, Cheng Ji was accidentally tricked by the Wang family into taking the corpse-eating pill, a failed experiment in their longevity experiment. Cheng's parents then went to great lengths to find a piece of meteorite jade to slow down his transformation into a corpse.

In order to seek a way to survive, after he learned of the Wu family's intentions, he deduced the appearance of Wu Xie, the person who broke the Wu family's situation, based on the Wu family's facial features, and put on a human skin mask similar to Wu Xie's, and took the initiative to join the game as the adopted son of the Qi family.

In the end, the plan still failed to overcome fate. Although the man behind Zhang Qishan died, the organization he left behind still did not give up and even reached out to the Xisha archaeological team. They used this group of Nine Gates descendants to continue to experiment with the elixir of life.

Wu Sanxing, who was implementing the plan, noticed "its" intention, found Qi Yu, and told him his discovery.

Seeing that there was no room for maneuver, Qi Yu had no choice but to sacrifice himself and let Wu Sanxing continue with his plan. He was also taken to the Golmud sanatorium and was used by "it" to continue human experiments.

Knowing that he could not escape death, Qi Yu handed over the meteorite jade he had been carrying with him to Zhang Qiling, who was also in the Xisha archaeological team, before "it" made any move, to prevent "it" from discovering any clues of the meteorite jade.

After his death, Cheng's parents, who were already in their 90s, were extremely sad. They finally decided to use a secret technique to go back to the time of Cheng Ji's birth and directly send Cheng Ji, who was still in his infancy, to his grandmother's home in Northeast China.

However, he did not expect that even so, it did not change Cheng Ji's involvement with the Nine Gates and the Zhang and Wang families. Despite his repeated warnings, Cheng Ji still chose to intervene in this matter.

After listening to Cheng's father's tearful story, Cheng Ji took a long time to digest it and felt a little overwhelmed.

Father Cheng saw the guilt and helplessness in the eyes of the young man in front of him, and sighed heavily: "My son, your father is not a big shot, and I can't sacrifice my life like them. Your father just wants you to live a good life, not like in that life, which was so painful and helpless. Do you understand?"

Cheng Ji's mind was in a mess and he didn't know how to respond for a moment.

Father Cheng didn't wait for him to reply, and continued, "If you want to go, go ahead."

"Father was worried after you returned to Changsha, so he asked someone to follow you and protect you. At first, they lost you, and my people thought they had accidentally lost track of you. Later, they found out that you had discovered them and deliberately made them lose you. My little son, father doesn't know where you learned those skills. If you insist on choosing this path, then I won't object, but I will just give you one piece of advice: don't let anything happen to you."

At this moment, the figure of the father in front of him overlapped with the figure of Cheng Ji's father in his previous life. Almost instantly, Cheng Ji's nose felt sore and crystal tears slid down his cheeks.

Cheng Ji threw himself heavily into his father's arms and cried out all the grievances that had been suppressed for two lifetimes.
