I rely on the system to support my eighteen brothers and sisters

Chapter 119 Qiao Linxi was buried in a deep pit, Xiao Ji returned to the capital

Xiao Ji wanted to say something, but the dirt above his head kept falling down and soon piled up. It wouldn't be long before the pit was filled up.

Qiao Linxi is definitely going to die.

"Let's go..."

After Xiao Ji climbed onto the platform, he looked back at the soil that was rising at a speed visible to the naked eye. Although he was unwilling, he knew that his subordinates were right. If he went to save Qiao Linxi, he would definitely die here.

He cannot die.

Rainwater had begun to fill the tomb, and the water had reached the ankles, and was still rising. When it reached a certain height, it flowed toward the deep pit.

Xiao Ji and his group ran out in a panic, and the tomb behind them kept collapsing. They went upstream and soon got out of the tomb and arrived at the place where the stone mechanism was at the beginning.

The terrain here is high and the water level is up to the chest. If they walk out, the water will directly submerge everyone. Fortunately, they can get out by swimming towards the light.

When everyone swam to the cave, they saw heavy rain falling from the sky.

Climbing up to the ground, Xiao Ji saw that the originally flat ground had sunk and turned into a small lake filled with rainwater.

"Miss Lin Xi..." Xiao Ji looked at the small lake with red eyes. If he had gone down to save her at that time, she might have had a chance to survive, but now...

"Master, Miss Lin Xi...she will definitely not survive in this state."

"Alas, what a pity for all that gold and silver."

"Master, I still have some..."

One of the followers took out the gold ingots that had been put in the tomb from his arms.

"I have some here too."

The few followers who entered the tomb all brought some of the stuff out with them, more or less.

Looking at those gold ingots, Xiao Ji sighed. It seemed that this was God's will. These things were not meant for him.

"You guys take it each."

It was not that he was unaware that his followers had become disloyal. If they were not under his control, how could they obey his orders?

Those people looked at each other, did not insist, put away the gold ingots, and thanked Xiao Ji.

"Let's go."

The rain was still falling, and everyone in the cemetery had left. The rain washed away the horse hoof prints, and everything seemed to be as if nothing had happened, except that there was a lake in the cemetery.

In Lanqing City, when it first started to rain, the people cheered, but the rain continued for several hours, and the people who were reveling in the streets had gone back. Apart from the rain washing the streets, there was no one there.

At Qiaoji Snack Bar, because of heavy rain, there was no business, so Qiao Linshan and her friends closed the door.

As it was getting dark and Qiao Linxi still hadn't returned, Qiao Linshan began to panic for no reason.

Perhaps it was because the sound of heavy rain hitting the green tiles was annoying, or perhaps it was because the darkening sky made people lose their sense of security.

Qiao Linshan couldn't sit still anymore, so she went to the backyard to ask Zhang Huawei, but she couldn't understand Zhang Huawei's sign language, and the two couldn't communicate.

"Sister Lin Shan, Sister Lin Xi shouldn't be in any trouble, right? She was away for four or five days before she came back."

Qiao Linxi didn't tell anyone before she left, so no one knew where she went except Zhang Huawei.

The next day, Qiao Linxi had not returned yet. Qiao Linshan asked Zhang Huawei again, but she did not understand what Zhang Huawei was pointing at. Zhang Huawei was so anxious that he had to harness the car and drive to the cemetery with Qiao Linshan and several children.

Even without Qiao Linxi in the store, it can still operate as usual, and Fang Yuting can handle the food delivered well.

The heavy rain is still falling, as if it is trying to finish the rain that hasn't fallen in all these years.

Zhang Huawei drove to the cemetery and found that the place that was originally just a hole had already turned into a lake.

This time, Qiao Linshan understood what Zhang Huawei was gesturing. She looked at the lake in confusion and asked, "You said my sister came here yesterday and asked you to go back first?"

Zhang Huawei nodded and gestured: There were a few people riding horses with her yesterday, the same ones who went to the store yesterday morning.

"Are you talking about the tall and big man with a knife?" After asking, Qiao Linshan also thought of who it was.

Zhang Huawei nodded.

"But it doesn't look like there's anyone here. Maybe Sister Lin Xi went somewhere else."

After returning to Lanqing City, Qiao Linshan felt uneasy, always feeling that something had happened to Qiao Linxi. She wanted to find someone, but they had no relatives in Lanqing City, so they really didn't know where to look or who to ask for help.

It rained for several days and nights, but there was still no sign of Qiao Linxi. Even Qin Xiaoqing noticed something was wrong. After asking, he found out that Qiao Linxi had been missing for several days. But no one knew where she had gone.

In a yard in Lanqing City, the sky looked like it was broken, and Xiao Ji became more and more upset. This time when he came to Lanqing City, not only did he not get what he wanted, but he also lost a life.

"Master, we should set off to return to the capital. Although we didn't get those things, it rained today. With rain, we can grow crops and collect taxes, and the emperor's worries will be solved."

It has indeed taken a long time to get to Lanqing City, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, so they have to return to the capital before it.

Tong Yu did not go with Xiao Ji that day, he was completely focused on Qiao Linbao. It was rare for him to see a child with good aptitude, so he just wanted to teach him well.

Seeing Tong Yu and the others were leaving, Qiao Linbao felt a little reluctant. After being together for so long, he still had some feelings for them.

"Boy, why don't you come with us to the capital so that you can continue to practice martial arts."

Qiao Linbao also wanted to go, he really wanted to learn martial arts. But he still shook his head: "I have to go back and ask my sister Lin Xi to see what she thinks."

When Qiao Linbao mentioned Qiao Linxi's name, Xiao Ji next to him felt a little uncomfortable. He never interfered in Tong Yu's affairs. But this time he spoke to Qiao Linbao.

"You are a boy, why do you ask your sister about everything?"

Qiao Linbao scratched his head and said, "An elder sister is like a mother. Although she is my cousin, she is no different from my biological sister. I still have to ask her opinion."

"If you go to the capital with us, not only can you continue to practice martial arts, we will also buy you a house in the capital so that you can provide for your master in his old age."

After a pause, Xiao Ji said, "Take your brother and sister with you. We can teach them to read and write in the capital. With us as a backer, your sister and sister can also marry into a good family in the future."

This is indeed very tempting. Seeing Qiao Linbao hesitating, Xiao Ji continued, "You don't need to discuss it with your cousin. We can just go and pick up your brothers and sisters. I don't think your cousin will stop you from developing in the capital. If the five of you brothers and sisters leave, maybe your cousin will be happy, and the burden on her shoulders will be much lighter."
