Tomb robber: I am the tenth of the nine gates
Chapter 224 Treasure - Glutinous Rice Balls - Verification
[Changsha-restaurant]
When the waiter came to work, he saw that the guests had gathered in the lobby early in the morning, neither ordering food nor drinking tea.
There was only one storyteller surrounded by water, and the waiter walked over curiously.
"Have you ever heard of it? There is a treasure outside Changsha City~"
As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the onlookers lit up. Just one sentence had already aroused people's interest.
Regular customers who know the storyteller couldn't help but joke, "Hey Mr. Liu, where did you hear this gossip?"
The storyteller Mr. Liu scolded him righteously, “Nonsense!
Mr. Liu, I never ask for gossip!
This is absolutely true~”
Qi Tiezui loved to join in the fun, and originally wanted to go to the Hong Mansion to see Chu Ning early, but couldn't help but become a crowd of onlookers when he passed by the teahouse.
"Hey, hey, little brother~
What does this say? "
Qi Tiezui patted the waiter on the shoulder and stood on tiptoes to look at Mr. Liu in the center. Unfortunately, he couldn't even see the top of Mr. Liu's head.
The waiter cupped his hands towards Qi Tiezui with a half-comprehensive look on his face.
"Hum, I don't know much about this master either.
I heard Mr. Liu say that there is a treasure outside Changsha...
It should be related to our Ninth Sect’s Lord Zhang..."
The waiter guessed as he spoke.
Qi Tiezui was stunned after hearing this, his eyes widened for a while, and then he quickly turned around and walked towards the defense official's residence at high speed.
Bad dish! Why did the news about Lord Buddha going down to the mine spread? If this became known to everyone, it would definitely spread to the top of the mountain.
Even if Zhang Qishan's official position is not demoted, he will be suppressed, Qi Tiezui thought as he walked quickly.
After Qi Tiezui left, the storyteller Mr. Liu and the onlookers laughed for a while before getting down to business.
"I heard this from a brother from the Nine Gates.
There is an old mine outside Changsha, which contains priceless treasures!
But he seems to want to take this big Buddha for himself! "
Mr. Liu was serious, as if he really saw Zhang Qishan taking those treasures.
The onlookers raised doubts, but Mr. Liu ignored them and brought the topic back to the center of the conversation.
"Let me tell you, can he keep the treasure to himself?"
The crowd of onlookers was completely distracted. No matter how many there were, those who followed the crowd followed the crowd and accused Zhang Qishan with righteous indignation...
【Hongfu】
Chu Ning opened his eyes drowsily and felt a stinging pain in his lower body.
When I looked down, I saw that I was lying on the couch and asleep, with my legs kept in the same position... numb...
Chu Ning shook his head and beat his legs with his hands, recalling what Chen Pi had talked to him last night.
Presumably in the next few days, the story of Zhang Qi's mine will be spread in Changsha City.
"Knock down..."
There was a knock on the door, and the little maid brought in the basin for washing.
"Young Master Chu, after you finish cleaning up, you can go to the front hall. Madam and Second Master are waiting for you in the front hall."
After the little maid explained quickly, she left the space left for Chu Ning to clean up.
Chu Ning waited for the numbness on her legs to subside before she washed up, changed her clothes and walked towards the front hall.
When I walked to the door and looked inside, I saw that the girl was the only one holding a bowl and drinking porridge.
The girl seemed to feel something and turned her head towards the door, and saw Chu Ning looking into the room with her head tilted like a puppy.
A smile suddenly appeared on the girl's face, and she raised her hand to wave.
"Xiao Ning, what are you doing at the door? Why don't you come in?"
Chu Ning stood at attention and walked into the main hall obediently.
"The food Madam sent last night was delicious!"
The girl smiled and pressed Chu Ning on the chair, her eyes full of love.
"As long as it suits your taste.
Try today's meal again. "
The girl said as she casually brought a bowl of pumpkin porridge to Chu Ning.
Chu Ning took it with both hands and looked around. She knew what the child in front of her was thinking without having to guess.
He is so well-behaved that his thoughts are written all over his face.
"Are you looking for the second master?
He will be here soon, you eat first. "
Chu Ning blinked, took a sip obediently, and his expression brightened.
He looked up at the girl and said, "Madam's craftsmanship is so good!
It’s really delicious. Can I bring some for Mr. Ba to try too? "
Seeing the child's sincere praise, the girl felt extremely satisfied.
"Okay~ I'll ask Taohua to put it in the food box for you later."
"Thank you, madam~"
Chu Ning was not polite and proved with her actions that the girl's skills were really good.
The two of them were having a meal in the hall when Erxiahong walked in and asked, "How is Xiaoning feeling today?"
Chu Ning raised her head and looked at Er Xuan Hong, like a white-haired puppy asking for a pat on the head. Er Xiao Hong actually covered her hand and rubbed it.
“I feel like my body is fine.
Chen Pi came to see me yesterday. "
Chu Ning did not hide anything and directly shared the information with Er Laohong.
Hearing this name, Er Laohong's expression did not change, but the girl showed concern.
"How is Chen Pi doing lately?
Haven't seen it for a long time. "
The girl looked at Chu Ning as she spoke. Erxiao Hong did not stop her and quietly waited for Chu Ning's answer.
"He... is pretty good~
I can eat and drink. He ate all the glutinous rice balls that Master Ba gave me! "
Chu Ning complained angrily and took a big bite of the bun with great anger.
Er Laohong and the girl looked at each other, feeling helpless in each other's eyes.
The girl has done everything a master's wife should do, and she naturally cares about this apprentice who has always been by Er Laohong's side.
As for Chen Pi's apprentice, Er Lahong commented that he was "smart enough, but too ruthless."
What Er Laohong is worried about is that this "ruthlessness" will eventually push Chen Pi to the point of no return.
By then, even he himself would not be able to save this apprentice.
Chu Ning looked around, wondering why Erxiahong and the girl looked incomprehensible.
Just assume that these two people are like this because of their "complaints"... right?
"Okay, okay... Actually, he doesn't eat much. At least he took the oil paper bag with me when he left..."
Chu Ning murmured while holding the bowl, and Er Laohong lowered his eyes and smiled, "I don't blame you, it is indeed his fault.
It's just Xiaoning, is Chen Pi looking for you just to pass on information? "
Erxiaohong was not worried that Chen Pi would do anything to harm the Hong Mansion, and thought about the purpose of Chen Pi's actions matter-of-factly.
Chu Ning shook her head like a rattle, "I'm not sure, maybe I'm still worried that the second master and his wife will get involved in unnecessary trouble~
But now I think it’s very possible that he was passing by and came in looking for food when he was hungry! "
Chu Ning's heart kept churning, and she just ate it. After all, she took the initiative to attract it, but she couldn't even handle it more or less!
It’s okay to leave a bite at least!
Er Laohong was stunned. Knowing Chu Ning's child's character, she felt a little confused about whether to laugh or cry.
But since Chen Pi has already delivered the news, he must not be afraid of being exposed. Er Lahong thought for a moment and looked at Chu Ning.
"After dinner, let's go find Buddha. Can Xiao Ning do it?"
With a tone of asking Chu Ning's opinion, Erxiao Hong respected Chu Ning's opinion very much. If the child didn't want to, then he would go by himself and would not force it.
Chu Ning responded without any hesitation, "Okay, okay~" After agreeing, he still looked at the girl eagerly.
The girl reached out and tapped Chu Ning's forehead, "I know, little greedy cat.
When you and Er Ye are ready, I will bring you the food box. "
"Thank you ma'am~"
The light in Chu Ning's eyes never disappeared since it appeared. Looking at the scene in front of her, Erya Hong had the idea in her heart that it would be fine if it stayed like this.
This kid Chu Ning really gets along with me, and he gets along very happily with the girl...
After saying goodbye to the thoughts in her mind, Erxiahong speeded up her meal, under the arrangement of the girl.
He took Chu Ning, who was carrying a food box, to the defense official's residence where Zhang Qishan was located.
【Zhang Zhai】
Zhang Qishan went up the stairs and felt only a cold sight at the passage on the second floor.
Zhang Qishan walked quickly to the door of the study and pushed open the door. The line of sight disappeared, replaced by the roar of a wild beast ringing in his ears.
Zhang Qishan's vision suddenly went dark, and bursts of pain spread from the top of his skull to his temples.
The roaring in his ears continued, Zhang Qishan stumbled and fell on the desk, sweeping all the items on the desk to the ground.
When Zhang Qishan came to his senses and realized what he had done.
He was already slumped in the chair, staring at the mess on the ground, and suddenly remembered what Chu Ning said.
"...If the contact lasts for a long time, it will cause damage to the body..."
Zhang Qishan knew that he must be abnormal at this moment, but he didn't know if this unusualness was really caused by the meteorite.
Zhang Qishan's eyes were heavy, and now he really needs to confirm...
