Tomb Raider Bronze Door Twins
Chapter 59 The Blind and the Fool
Hei Xia Zi looked at Yan Bucun in astonishment. He knew that if the other party told him, then he would not be afraid that Wu Yu would buy information from him. He swiped Yan Bucun's card. This was the first time that Xie Yuchen saw someone rushing to pay. He touched the wallet in his pocket and felt relieved that for the first time in his life, Wu Yu did not owe him any debt.
The sound of money being deposited into the account used to be Hei Xia Zi's favorite, but now, he seemed to regret accepting the money, because the information from Yan Bucun's mouth would disrupt everyone's ordinary life again.
Zhang Qiling, who knew nothing, did not understand the meaning of the other party's mention of him, but he knew clearly that the truth would suddenly appear one day.
No one dared to answer Yan Bucun, and no one wanted to break the deadlock.
"I..." Zhang Qiling opened his mouth, but was quickly covered by Hei Xia Zi. He was still smiling evilly, but his eyes turned to Wu Yu, who stared at him in a daze, "Disciple, let's talk?"
"What were they talking about?" Wu Yu had a vague guess, but still didn't dare to listen.
Zhang Qiling tried to pry Hei Xia Zi's hands apart, but he did not let go even though he felt pain. "I have completed the task you gave me. It's time to listen to your words after all these years, right? Otherwise, your reward will be wasted."
Everyone sat down. Yan Bushun, who was interrupted, was relieved by Hei Xia Zi's behavior. For the time being, everyone put aside what he wanted to say.
Wu Yu was not afraid of other people hearing the result of the task he had assigned to Hei Xia Zi. What's more, all the people present were trustworthy brothers who had accompanied him for half his life. Fatty also woke up at this time.
But in Wu Yu's opinion, he just didn't dare to face Zhang Qiling.
Hei Xia Zi sat on the bed with his legs crossed, rummaging through the leather backpack in his arms. He didn't look closely when he was underneath it, but it seemed like the first time he used such an old leather bag. It was very old, and the worn cowhide was somewhat peeling off. He took out a few notebooks from it, and they all looked exactly the same, making it difficult to tell them apart.
"This is what Wu Yu asked me to do. It records what Dumb 2.0 has been doing for the past ten years. Do you want to read it or do you want me to read it to you?" Hei Xia Zi opened the first book with ease. I don't know how he could tell the order of the four books.
However, Hei Xia Zi did not really serve Wu Yu like feeding a child, but continued to be frivolous, "If I read, I will charge extra. What a lie! My voice is so nice, I will lose a lot if you listen to my soulful reading for nothing..."
Zhang Qiling snatched the notebook from his hand expressionlessly, ignoring Hei Xia Zi's resentful expression, and handed it to Wu Yu. The notebook was different from the leather bag. It had been preserved in good condition for ten years, only the paper was a little yellowed.
The handwriting on the first page of the 'Dumb 2.0 Observation Log' is very consistent with Hei Xia Zi's personality. It is unspeakably unrestrained, but not messy, and the words are still legible.
But Hei Xia Zi obviously doesn't like to write dates. He just wrote at the beginning, 'Oh~ I met that stupid version of the mute again.' His smooth-talking tone can still be imagined when it was put into words.
【Time goes back ten years ago】
When Zhang Qiling went out, he didn't know where to go. He saw a man wearing sunglasses sitting on the ground at the entrance of the B&B, throwing a tantrum and crying, "You stupid idiot! Pay me back for my erhu, wuwuwu. I spent all my money to buy this treasure!"
His plaintive voice attracted quite a crowd of onlookers. Grandpas and women surrounded him and joined him in cursing the brat who had ruined Hei Xiazi's livelihood. They also felt sorry for this "honest man" who made a living with his craft.
Zhang Qiling, who originally wanted to pretend that she didn't see it, pursed her lips and tried to leave, but Hei Xiazi pointed his finger at her and said, "Woo woo woo, everyone, please help me, he is the one who broke my erhu..."
Zhang Qiling was obviously stunned when he was about to run away under dozens of gazes. He didn't expect that Hei Xiazi would retaliate so clearly. Like a primary school student, Zhang Qiling was surrounded by uncles and aunts, but when the villagers saw his face, they didn't say anything. "Hey, young man, you are so handsome, why do you do such a thing that will destroy people's lives!"
Hei Xia Zi watched with great amusement for a while, and Zhang Qiling's face turned blue. He felt that time was enough, and began to smooth things over, "It's okay, thank you uncle and aunt for helping me, I will take him to resolve it privately, thank you all so much, wuwuwu..." He wiped away his bitter crocodile tears, and seemed to be really moved.
He dragged Zhang Qiling, who had an expressionless but definitely angry face, away. Although Zhang Qiling was somewhat reluctant to be dragged around like this, he didn't know where to go and could only follow him away.
It was not until his back hit a handsome off-road vehicle that Zhang Qiling realized Hei Xia Zi's real purpose. The other party observed him carefully, but what ultimately attracted Hei Xia Zi was still Zhang Qiling's sharp eyes.
"I know you are not mute, and I also know what you are. If you want to survive in this world, you must listen to me." Hei Xia Zi is very good at persuading people. His voice is low, as if he is really waiting for the other party to make a choice.
Zhang Qiling tried hard to digest Hei Xia Zi's words, and finally nodded. He was thrown into the back seat and sat among a pile of miscellaneous items.
His stomach growled symbolically. He was a little hungry as he hadn't eaten breakfast. Zhang Qiling subconsciously took out his pocket and found the handmade chocolate that Wu Yi had bought for him at the store opposite. When Wu Yi discovered him, he pretended not to care and gave himself a few pieces. Zhang Qiling ate them in small bites, reluctantly.
Hei Xia Zi was driving the car, unusually quiet. After living alone for so many years, even a talkative person like him would have his desire to express himself worn down.
"People like us will not be accepted on the ground. If I take you down, you can express your complaints." Hei Xiazi gripped the steering wheel, his knuckles turning a little white. As a worm-like character who can only survive underground, he has become accustomed to the feeling of being shrouded in darkness.
Zhang Qiling resisted the urge to eat sweets, wrapped up half a piece of chocolate and put it in his pocket. He could still understand some of the jargon in the industry, "Go to the grave, I choose." He expressed his own standards for going to the grave.
The person in the driver's seat rarely glanced at him through the rearview mirror. Hei Xia Zi was indeed a person who only took small jobs for high pay, and he always explored large tombs. He really didn't know what Zhang Qiling's specific selection requirements were, but if the job chosen by the other party did not suit his taste, he would reject Zhang Qiling.
The car gradually drove into the darkness covered with lush green trees. No one knew how long the road was. Hei Xia Zi had his own way of taking jobs. When Zhang Qiling woke up, he found that the scenery outside had changed into lush green.
There was a group of people digging the ground with Luoyang shovels. They all looked like experienced veterans in digging holes and soon dug out a perfect hole.
Although he was very dissatisfied with Hei Xia Zi for taking the job without permission, he couldn't say anything when he came here. Zhang Qiling got out of the car, turning the jade beads in his hand.
Before the shoe touched the ground, the seams of the sewing machine opened for a moment. When the group saw him, their eyes widened and they stopped what they were doing instantly. "No, Mr. Hei, you didn't tell us that Brother Zhang is coming too?!" The man looked like a knowledgeable old man. He wanted to hire Hei Xia Zi because he knew the reputation of Nan Xia Bei Ya in the underworld. This reaction might also be due to the fact that he had seen the real Zhang Qiling.
Hei Xia Zi did not refute, but acknowledged the convenient identity provided by the other party to Zhang Qiling, "Old man, you are quite sensible. The mute and I came here together, and you made a profit. So before you go in... can you settle the mute's bill with me as well?" He rubbed his thumb and index and middle fingers together, making a gesture of asking for money. He thought that he could make as much money as possible, and he has always been greedy for money.
The old man did not refuse, and even let Hei Xia Zi swipe his card with tears of gratitude. Hei Xia Zi felt a little elated as he received another sum of money. He could earn the money of two people at once, and with Zhang Qiling, a fool, the other party would not ask him for money. He felt so good as he was the only one in charge.
"Wait, try your best to protect them, but if you encounter danger, it's okay to retreat." Hei Xia Zi spoke in a low voice to Zhang Qiling, who was still in a state of confusion, then jumped and kissed his card swipe machine.
Zhang Qiling looked at the beads in his hand, which became brighter as he got closer to the cave entrance. He leaned over the entrance, and countless red lines appeared in his eyes, shining in the darkness, intertwined densely, and leading straight to the depths.
These eleven people are setting up camp. They have all investigated the history of this place. Zhang Qiling knows from their conversation that this is the place where the most bronze artifacts are produced. "Changxin Palace Lantern, Horse Stepping on Flying Swallow, Bronze Rhinoceros Vase with Inlaid Gold and Silver Cloud Patterns..." A bespectacled expert in the team, reading out those priceless treasures, seemed to be hoping to get a share of them.
The youngest child looked to be in his early twenties. He lay on the old man's lap, listening to the old man comforting him. He should have said the word "Fu Fu", a nice name that sounded like a blessing.
The old man was obviously dissatisfied with his idea of going to the tomb, but Fu Fu was used to being spoiled, so he naturally held his treasure in his mouth for fear that it would melt, so the old man did not scold him.
Hei Xia Zi was eating the green pepper and shredded pork fried rice that he had prepared, squatting under the shade of a tree to avoid the scorching sun. Zhang Qiling stood beside him and observed the surroundings carefully. Family reunion was not something that people like them who had lived for who knows how many years could envy.
Zhang Qiling was pulled down by Hei Xia Zi, who was chewing something and speaking incoherently. He probably heard that Hei Xia Zi was asking him whether this tomb was to his liking.
The tomb that could make that group of people invest so much money and even invite Black Blind must be a good tomb worth visiting. Zhang Qiling already knew that Black Blind's appearance price was not cheap, and he also became curious when he saw the red line.
"Yeah." He responded as a reply, and without paying any more attention to Hei Xia Zi, he stood up directly.
Apparently, after Hei Xia Zi finished his last bite of rice, he looked up at him. Zhang Qiling, who was hidden in the shade of the tree, had a very delicate chin and a tense face, and he looked very good when he was serious.
Hei Xiazi stood up, put down the empty box in his hand, looked at the hole he was looking at, and said something that shocked Zhang Qiling:
"I've always wanted to ask, how did you make a bunch of red lines from the beads in your pocket..."
