Traveling Through the Grave Robbers' Chronicles: Starting from Meeting You

As night fell, bright bonfires were lit around the camp. In the breeze, the bonfires flickered, as if they would go out at any time.

Zhang Hanyan searched every corner of the camp and found Zhang Qiling sitting on the edge of the cliff. The evening breeze blew, and his hair was slightly messy.

"Brother, why are you sitting here alone? I've been looking for you for a long time. The meal is ready. Go back and eat."

Zhang Qiling raised his head and gazed at her sweet smile. Seeing her carefree look, he knew that she had forgotten what happened just now.

The moment he lowered his head, a hint of loss flashed across his eyes.

"Ah."

He responded softly, his tone muffled and revealing a hint of grievance.

Zhang Hanyan looked at his departing back in confusion, muttering, "What's wrong with you, little brother? Why are you suddenly unhappy?"

She quickly followed his pace, secretly studying his expression.

[Host, do you sometimes feel that you may not be perfect? ​​For example...about love? You know nothing about it! ]

Love? I used to be a free and easy swordsman. I could do whatever I wanted and lived a carefree life. Why did I need love?

Being tainted by the greed, anger, and ignorance of the world is a taboo for an immortal! Do you understand?

[But, aren't you no longer the same person you were before? How about you give it a try? ]

Zhang Hanyan frowned and thought. The word "love" reminded her of the Plum Blossom Fairy in the fairyland. It was because she fell in love with a mortal that her fairy bones were removed and she was sent down to the mortal world.

From a plum blossom fairy to a plum blossom demon, she thought she could finally be with her lover. However, when the man knew she was a demon, he immediately went to find a high monk to subdue her.

Poor girl, she had always been infatuated, and was eventually beaten to death by the monk brought by the man himself, and disappeared from then on between heaven and earth.

There are many more examples like this. The people they fell in love with were different, but without exception, none of them had a good ending.

When she thought of those fairies who had worked so hard to become immortals, and then gave up the common path to immortality for a man, she felt that she could not agree with it.

She didn't understand. He was just a man, and many of them were unfaithful and ungrateful. Why should she give up the results of her thousands of years of practice for those who were not worthy?

That real example successfully defeated the system's earnest persuasion.

At this moment, Zhang Hanyan wished she could use magic to seal her heart and never be involved with those unfaithful men.

The system's endless and dry-mouthed persuasion did not stir her heart in the slightest. The system looked at her righteous expression and slowly began to back down.

Woohoo... The host looks so determined that he seems to want to join the party, I really can't persuade him!!!

[Host, are you really not going to reconsider this? ]

The system kept asking, but Zhang Hanyan shook her head decisively and firmly to refuse.

[Okay then...] I'm afraid the task the main system asked me to complete will be over...

"Chief, Saint, the Buddha wants you to go with him." The adjutant strode up to them and spoke softly.

Zhang Hanyan glanced at Zhang Qiling, who still had a sullen expression, and said, "I can go alone. What the little brother knows, I also know."

As she spoke, she stood up and prepared to leave with her adjutant. Before she took two steps, Zhang Qiling had caught up with her.

He followed her silently, not talking to her or looking at her.

His cold look almost made Zhang Hanyan think that she was back to the winter day when she first met him.

"Brother, what happened to you today? Tell me who made you angry, and I'll teach him a lesson for you."

Zhang Qiling glanced at her indifferently, then strode forward without saying a word, with no intention of speaking.

What on earth is going on? It's really frustrating!

Zhang Hanyan quickly caught up with Zhang Qiling, who had already walked to the door of Zhang Qishan's tent, and walked into the tent with him.

Zhang Qishan squatted at the top, looking at the two of them standing side by side with a smile.

"I asked the clan leader and the saint to come here tonight because I wanted to confirm the specific location of the operation with you two. Our people have been searching on this cliff for an entire afternoon today, but have not found anything."

Normally, Zhang Hanyan disliked Zhang Qishan very much. It was even said that she was in a bad mood now, and she would even curse at any dog ​​that passed by.

"If you can't find it, just keep looking. Why are you complaining? If you can't find it, it means you are stupid. This is also our first time here. We don't know anything!

Zhang Qishan, we have told you everything we know. Please handle the future matters on your own and don’t bother us! You are sick! "

Before she had time to turn around after she finished speaking, Zhang Qiling had already taken the first step and walked out quickly.

Zhang Qishan looked at the backs of the two people walking one after the other and said, "Is this... a quarrel? Haha... their relationship is pretty good, isn't it? It's really strange."

He looked at the adjutant standing aside and ordered, "I originally thought that the relationship between them was indestructible, but now it seems that there will be disagreements. Think of a way to alienate them!"

"Buddha... this seems difficult to do."

"If you can't do it, then find a way!" Zhang Qishan yelled in anger.

"Yes, I will go now!"

The adjutant stood in the open space with a resentful look on his face, gazing at the two tents in the corner. Thinking of Zhang Qishan's order, he let out a resigned smile.

Late at night, the calls of nighthawks could be heard from the dense woods around, and combined with the whistling wind, it sounded particularly creepy.

Zhang Hanyan looked at the crescent-shaped white jade pendant in her hand. This was a birthday gift from Zhang Qiling and it was also the first gift she had ever received.

[Host, why don't you go ask Zhang Qiling? It's not a good idea for you two to not talk to each other. It's easy for others to take advantage of you.]

Who wants to take advantage of the gap between us, Zhang Qishan?

[It’s hard to say. If he sees you quarreling, he might ask someone to drive a wedge between you.]

Zhang Hanyan looked at the quiet night outside, made up her mind, strode out, lifted the curtain of Zhang Qiling's tent and walked in front of him.

The sleepless Zhang Qiling raised his head and looked at her intently, his eyes full of confusion.

"Brother, I came here just to ask you, why were you angry today? Was it because I fell asleep on your shoulder?

If that's the case, I've already admitted my mistake to you and promised not to do it again. Why are you still so angry?

If this is not the reason, can you tell me the reason directly? Guessing is very tiring, you know?"

She spoke a series of words quickly and urgently, and Zhang Qiling was stunned for a long time before he realized what she meant.
