Tomb robber: I am the tenth of the nine gates

[In the forest near the Valley of the Dead]

Qi Tiezui, Adjutant Zhang and the chief chief were roasting a fire together. The chief chief looked at the two men in front of him and seemed a little anxious, so he spoke.

"Ask whatever you want. I promised the kid."

Qi Tiezui nodded to Adjutant Zhang, and Adjutant Zhang looked at the chieftain with expectation in his eyes.

"Big Tusi, have you ever heard of Zhang Qishan, the Great Buddha Zhang?"

The chief chief thought seriously, looked at the two of them and slowly shook his head.

"how come?

Could it be that... Master Buddha and his wife did not come to Baiqiao Village?"

Adjutant Zhang looked at Qi Tiezui somewhat helplessly, but the chieftain heard the message in this sentence.

"lady?

Before, a Mrs. Zhang asked someone to look for me.

I didn't want to get involved, but she spent a lot of money and what she wanted was very simple.

She said her husband was ill and wanted to go to Baiqiao Village to recuperate and retreat from the world, so she asked me to help her."

Adjutant Zhang and Qi Tiezui looked at each other with joy.

"So where are they now?"

The chief chief suddenly fell silent. Qi Tiezui added some assurances to the chief chief.

"It doesn't matter what happens. Xiao Ning has to recuperate in Baiqiao Village anyway.

We first helped the chieftain bury the prince under a tree, and then after sending the chieftain back to Baiqiao Village, we sat down together.

Let's talk about where the Buddha and his wife are going? Big Chief, do you think this is a good idea?"

The big toast didn't hesitate this time, "Okay, sure."

Now that she knew what these three men had in mind, she felt relieved. The most reliable business in the world is for everyone to get what they want.

【Bai Qiao Village Inn】

Except for eating and sleeping, Er Yuehong stayed with Chu Ning almost every step of the way.

Originally the child just had a fever, but this morning Chu Ning actually started talking in his sleep.

Er Yuehong changed the handkerchief on Chu Ning's forehead and looked carefully at the wound on Chu Ning's cheek.

In just two days, the wound on his cheek had disappeared.

Er Yuehong looked at the bone-deep wound on Chu Ning's right hand again. The scab had fallen off, revealing new, white flesh.

Chu Ning's cheeks were a faint pink due to fever and he remained unconscious.

During this period, Er Yuehong had observed that Chu Ning's recovery time was several times longer than before.

This should have been a good thing, but Er Yuehong did not look very happy, and looked at Chu Ning with concern.

Judging from the first time I saw Chu Ning dealing with the hair virus and his recovery, that should be the first time Chu Ning was injured since he came to this world.

At that time, Chu Ning's recovery was accidental.

Chu Ning also concealed the injuries that followed very well until they returned from Peking together to treat the girl's illness.

Chu Ning suddenly became visibly weak, and his recovery also began to slow down. It took almost a week or two for the scar from the small cut to gradually disappear.

This is also the reason why Er Yuehong, Yatou, and everyone else who knows about this matter try their best to be nice to Chu Ning.

They all could see that Chu Ning almost risked his own life to pull the girl back from the brink of death.

Even though he was very weak, he still smiled at them obediently every day.

The girl later told me that she could feel a mysterious connection with Chu Ning...

Er Yuehong pinched her eyebrows, her eyes stayed on Chu Ning's face for a long time before moving away.

"Xiao Ning, can you tell me what I should do to keep you?"

Er Yuehong muttered to himself, not knowing to whom he was talking.

If Chu Ning recovered at his current speed, by the time Qi Tiezui and Adjutant Zhang came back, all of Chu Ning's wounds should have been completely healed.

Er Yuehong was filled with grief. He was worried that Chu Ning had inadvertently overdrawn his life to recover...

【Baiqiao Village】

Ever since Zhang Qishan finished drawing those incomprehensible things, he fell into a deep sleep again.

Only this time, I actually dreamed.

In the dream, I was a young boy, holding a flashlight and walking through the low door of the tomb.

Zhang Qishan was suddenly stunned. This place was very familiar.

There are holes next to each other on the ground. Judging from their shapes, they are the size of coffins. They should be the places where coffins are placed.

Zhang Qishan accidentally stepped on the edge of the hole and fell into the pit.

I don't know where the flashlight was thrown away, and it was pitch black all around.

Zhang Qishan groped his way to his feet, holding onto the surrounding earth walls.

Suddenly, I heard a person's breathing sound. It was not that obvious, but in this empty tomb.

Especially in the pit where hundreds of coffins were placed, it appeared particularly long and clear.

In the darkness, a blurry black shadow appeared in a corner of the pit. Zhang Qishan was startled, as the breathing sound seemed to come from this black shadow.

Zhang Qishan looked tense as he slowly walked towards the dark shadow step by step.

There was no reaction until he walked up to the shadow. Zhang Qishan bravely squatted down and poked it with his fingertips, and felt something soft.

The black group shrank back.

Zhang Qishan found the flashlight that had just fallen at his feet, tapped it twice and it lit up. He shone it towards the black mass in front of him and saw a child???

Chu Ning was curled up to heal himself, but suddenly someone appeared beside him and poked and photographed him.

Feeling that this person had no ill intentions, Chu Ning ignored him. Even if he had malicious intentions, he would just let him be.

Zhang Qishan refused to give in. It seemed so weird that a child suddenly appeared in such a place!

So he reached out to shake Chu Ning, "Wake up? Hello? Wake up!"

Chu Ning felt dizzy and no longer silent. He raised his head and looked at Zhang Qishan.

His big eyes were full of accusations against the person in front of him. When he saw Zhang Qishan's appearance clearly, the little person was completely stunned.

"Have I seen you somewhere?"

"Who are you? You look familiar."

Two voices were heard at the same time. Chu Ning and Zhang Qishan looked at each other, but they couldn't remember where they had seen the person in front of them.

Zhang Qishan sighed and stuffed the flashlight into Chu Ning's arms, "Please light it up first."

Facing a child, especially a child who made him feel familiar, Zhang Qishan was more patient.

At this moment, I won’t pursue his origins. Anyway, this guy is no match for me, if he makes any move.

Zhang Qishan lowered his eyes and looked at Chu Ning's slender neck. It was so fragile that this little life would disappear if he exerted the slightest force.

Chu Ning did not refuse Zhang Qishan. He obediently held the flashlight in his arms and shone it on the pit.

Zhang Qishan retracted his gaze, then reached out and picked up the child with one arm, and put his other hand on the edge to support himself, and the whole person successfully got out of the coffin pit.

Chu Ning was held in one hand by Zhang Qishan and served as a lighting tool. Gradually, Chu Ning discovered that Zhang Qishan would go wherever his flashlight shone.

So the next second Chu Ning inadvertently looked towards the pit in front of him, and Zhang Qishan's mouth twitched.

The free hand covered Chu Ning's head and manually turned Chu Ning's head towards himself.

Chu Ning smiled at Zhang Qishan obediently and sweetly, with the innocence that only a child can have.

Zhang Qishan raised his eyebrows, wondering if the little guy did it on purpose.

"what's your name?"

"Chun Ning, what about you?"

The little guy spoke his name seriously and in a baby voice.

Zhang Qishan stared at Chu Ning closely, and all he saw were those gem-like eyes.

“Zhang Qishan.

Do you know where this is?"

Zhang Qishan didn't believe that a child could know much, but he still asked with the mentality of giving it a try, without expecting Chu Ning to be able to answer.

I saw the little guy waving the flashlight around, then looking at me, and his pretty little eyebrows slightly frowned.

"Don't you know where this is?"

Seeing Chu Ning asking him seriously, Zhang Qishan shook his head honestly.

“This is your dream.

I just don’t know why I was dragged into this.”

"Dream?" Zhang Qishan's eyes were confused for a moment. What was going on?

As Chu Ning spoke, he tilted his head and looked at Zhang Qishan. He wrinkled his little nose and suddenly moved closer to Zhang Qishan and sniffed him. The tip of his small nose rubbed against Zhang Qishan's chin and slid over.

Zhang Qishan felt an itch on his chin and raised his eyebrows as he looked at the little ball who looked like a puppy.

"The fact that I can get in here shows that we are connected."

Chu Ning pointed at himself and then at Zhang Qishan.

Zhang Qishan raised his eyebrows, teasingly, "Do you smell any connection?"

Chu Ning nodded, with confusion and puzzlement also appearing in his eyes.

"You have my blood in your body. It seems that I gave it to you on my own initiative.

That would explain why I appeared in your dream."

After Chu Ning finished speaking, the smile on her face widened and she put her arms around Zhang Qishan's neck.

"Zhang Qishan, on behalf of my future self, I say hello to you now.

I am Chu Ning, and we will spend the rest of our dream time together!"

Faced with Chu Ning's closeness, Zhang Qishan surprisingly did not reject it. He tightened his arms around the child and then scolded him softly.

"Be honest, it's not my fault if you fall."

Since this strange place was all a dream, Zhang Qishan decided to see why he had such a dream.

“Chu… um, Xiaoning, do you mean that you and I met at some time in the future?”

When Zhang Qishan's name came to her lips, she changed it to a more intimate name. The child was hugging her, so she should respond to him in the name.

“That’s the logic.

But it is not ruled out that the two times and spaces are misaligned, which leads to the two of us being in the same dimension of consciousness."

Zhang Qishan glanced at Chu Ning. Although he was young, he knew a lot.

Suddenly Zhang Qishan thought of something, and said seriously, "Xiaoning, what do you mean when you said I have your blood in my body?"

Chu Ning thought Zhang Qishan would not ask again, but she still couldn't avoid it. Her eyelashes trembled, and this time she didn't look directly at Zhang Qishan.

"..." Chu Ning opened his mouth, wanting to tell the truth, but didn't know how to say it.

“Forget it, I don’t have that much energy to study.

Just one thing, you are saving me by doing this, right? "

Zhang Qishan did not make things difficult for Chu Ning, he just asked Chu Ning to confirm one thing.

Chu Ning did not hesitate this time and nodded directly, "Don't worry, it will not cause any damage or harm to your body. If you have any illness, I will help you cure it."

There was surprise in Zhang Qishan's lowered eyes. Chu Ning seemed to have said nothing, but he explained everything clearly.

Is this child's blood really so powerful?

"I don't know why you dreamed of this place, but you can ask that person."

Zhang Qishan raised his head and looked in the direction of Chu Ning's flashlight.

There was a coffin in the middle of the place, with a person huddled beside it. The figure looked like an adult, but the face was not clear.

Zhang Qishan walked over holding Chu Ning, and when he saw the pattern of the man's clothes and his appearance clearly, Zhang Qishan's eyes widened.

"Father?!"

Chu Ning turned his head to look at Zhang Qishan, patted Zhang Qishan and signaled him to let him down. Zhang Qishan put Chu Ning on the ground.

Zhang Qishan knelt down in front of his father and stretched out a trembling hand to touch him, "Father, what's wrong with you?"

As his hand just touched the man's arm, Chu Ning quickly pushed Zhang Qishan away.

"Get out of the way! He's not your father!"

A gunshot was heard behind him, and Zhang Qishan fell into the pit behind him while holding Chu Ning who was rushing towards him, with pain and astonishment on his face.

However, the pit was only the size of a coffin, but it suddenly became deep and dark, and the two people fell for a long time without landing on the ground.

………………

Mo Ce pushed the door open and came in to change the bandages for Zhang Qishan. He saw Zhang Qishan, who was tightly clutching the quilt and sweating profusely.

"Brother-in-law?! Brother-in-law?

Buddha!"

Mo Ce stuffed the pill into Zhang Qishan's mouth without hesitation, and Zhang Qishan gradually calmed down.

[Inside Baiqiaozhai Inn]

Chu Ning sat up straight. Er Yuehong, who was sitting beside the bed, showed a look of surprise and called out softly.

"Xiao Ning?"

Chu Ning slowly turned his head to look at Er Yuehong. There seemed to be a light flashing in his eyes, and then the corner of his mouth curled up, looking aggrieved.

"Second Master~"

When Er Yuehong saw the child acting like a spoiled child, there was a smile in her eyes, but she just curled the corners of her mouth.

After Chu Ning shouted this, he fell straight down on the bed. This sudden change startled Er Yuehong, and he hurried to see Chu Ning.

Chu Ning opened his eyes and watched being fooled. Er Yuehong looked anxious, his eyes full of worry, "Xiao Ning, how are you?"

Then I heard the child's breathing, "Some anemia, black eyes..."

Er Yuehong's temples jumped, and he looked straight at Chu Ning, "Xiao Ning, take a rest first, and talk to me when you're healed.

I'm curious about how I ended up like this."

Chu Ning's gaze trembled slightly as he stared upwards, and his eyes slowly turned towards Er Yuehong.

Er Yuehong's handsome face glowed like jade, with a faint smile on his lips, but the words he spoke were extremely cold.

Chu Ning swallowed, silently looked away, closed his eyes and tried to pretend not to see.

"Second Master, it hurts..."

The child tried to escape by acting like a spoiled brat, but Er Yuehong wanted to get to the bottom of it.

“Does it hurt?

If you know it hurts, why do you still bump into someone's knife?

you……"

Er Yuehong took a deep breath and suppressed the unspeakable heartache in his heart. These emotions surged into his throat and he finally uttered a sentence.

“Rest first.

I'll stay outside with Xiao Ning."

Then he carefully tucked in the corner of the quilt for Chu Ning, replaced the handkerchief that had fallen off when Chu Ning stood up, stood up and left, giving Chu Ning space to rest.

Chu Ning opened his eyes and looked at Er Yuehong's leaving back, feeling a sore nose.

Chu Ning took his arm out of the quilt and touched the wound on his arm that was almost healed. He felt as if his heart was pricked by a needle.

The clear eyes suddenly became a little turbulent, and the heart was struggling but powerless.
