Tomb robber: Tuantuan, I am a national treasure!

Er Yuehong turned around and continued to rub Jinnian's slightly stiff body with her hands.

"Any news from Master Jiu?"

"Well, in Peking, the Crescent Hotel will be holding an auction next week. They happen to have saffron and even deer grass. Maybe it will be of some use to Jinnian."

Er Yuehong nodded, lowered her eyes and looked at Jinnian, the tenderness in her eyes could drown a person: "I'll be there right away, please keep an eye on him."

Zhang Qishan shook his head: "I'll go with you. The Crescent Hotel has a lot of rules. If you go there rashly, you might be turned away."

Qi Tiezui rolled his eyes at the two people discussing this and that. Why don't they just go together? Jinnian is not a quiet person.

He lowered his head and spoke quietly to Jinnian: "Little Jinnian, there are only two of us left. I can't protect you. Let's go too. There are so many things to do in Beiping!"

"Really?"

When Jinnian heard that there was something to play, her eyes lit up like little stars.

The last time he went out to play, he went to the mines, and the result left him unsatisfied.

Qi Tiezui had just calculated that good things would happen if he went there, so he didn't care, he would just coax her there first.

Er Yuehong pinched Jinnian's red ears and asked him worriedly, "Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"

"No, it's not painful anymore."

Jinnian felt itchy when being touched, and Eryuehong's hands were cold, so Jinnian couldn't stop rubbing his face against them, craving for that little bit of coolness.

Er Yuehong simply gave his hand to Jinnian, who pulled his hand and successfully placed it on his head.

"Then I want to go too."

"No."

Er Yuehong frowned and tapped his forehead with his free right hand: "Stop messing around."

Before Jinnian spoke, Qi Tiezui was mumbling a lot, all trying to persuade Er Yuehong. Finally, he concluded with a sentence.

"Second Master, it's better to keep the young master under your watch. Who can guarantee that this won't happen a second time?"

Er Yuehong lowered his head and looked at Jinnian who was trying hard to seek his consent, feeling a little hesitant.

"Second Master, take him with you. If anything goes wrong, we can find a way around it. At worst, with a few of us together, how can anything happen to him?"

Zhang Qishan's words made the score three to one. Er Yuehong nodded helplessly and agreed.

He was afraid that if he didn't take Jinnian with him, and if Jinnian ran away with Zhang Qishan, who would he turn to for a brother?

Jinnian looked at Er Yuehong's back as she left and smiled stealthily at the two of them.

"Stop laughing. Second Master and I are going to prepare some things. You stay here and don't run around. Do you hear me?"

"And you, Lao Ba, don't be distracted and keep an eye on the people!"

Looking at the two grinning people, Zhang Qishan shook his head. He was really worried about Lao Ba. He and Jinnian, together, were not as reliable as Zhang Rishan alone.

(Zhang Rishan - Reliable Plus)

Qi Tiezui watched the two people go out, moved to the bed curiously, and poked Jinnian's cheek.

Jinnian was still moving his legs when he was suddenly poked in the face. He covered the poked area and looked at Qi Tiezui with an innocent face.

Qi Tiezui rubbed his hands, it was so fun!

"Xiao Jinnian, what does that bug look like?"

Jinnian was lost in memories when he asked her this, and lowered her head.

"Long? And very small. The color is uh... yellow? Not really. Um... about the same color as you."

Qi Tiezui took advantage of his distraction to secretly pinch the other side of his face, questioning him while pinching.

"What do you mean by the same color as mine? Does your Eighth Master also look so shameful?"

Jinnian's cheeks were pulled on both sides, and air was leaking from his mouth.

"Not plain.....Mr....Look!"

"........It's Master Ba...........not Master!"

"Uncle............!"

Qi Tiezui finally had enough fun and finally took his "dirty hands" off Jinnian's face.

It’s so fun, very fun, and it feels like tender tofu. No wonder those people like to pinch Jinnian’s face so much. Hehehehe, he likes it too!

Jinnian covered both sides of her face, feeling aggrieved and almost crying. Then she remembered what Er Yuehong had taught her.

He covered his face, shrank into the bed, aimed at Qi Tiezui's butt, and kicked him.

"Hey hey!"

Qi Tiezui was caught off guard and was kicked off the bed by Jinnian.

"Eight! Master!"

Jinnian released his hands that were covering his face, climbed up from the bed, stood on the bed with his hands on his hips, raised his chin slightly, and looked at Qi Tiezui with a proud look on his face.

Not only was Qi Tiezui not angry, he was almost laughing so hard that he rolled on the ground.

There were red marks on both sides of Jinnian's face, as if she had painted red blush on them. Standing on the bed, she looked like a little man in a New Year picture.

“Haha ...…”

"Master Ba, what's so funny?"

Qi Tiezui turned around and saw Zhang Rishan coming in.

Without further ado, he pointed to the "New Year picture man" on the bed and showed Zhang Rishan.

"Your little master, hahahahahahahahaha......"

Jinnian got angry and her face turned even redder. She bent down in anger, picked up the little snake on the bed, and threw it accurately at Qi Tiezui.

Qi Tiezui looked at this familiar scene and quickly shouted and hid behind Zhang Rishan.

"No, come again?!"

Zhang Rishan grabbed Qi Tiezui's collar with one hand and grabbed the little snake that was attacking him with the other.

The little snake fell into his hands, and after being coiled, it became docile. But as soon as Qi Tiezui appeared, it hissed and stuck out its tongue at him.

Qi Tiezui spat back unwillingly, making a few soft sounds. In comparison, Jinnian looked as mature as an adult.

"You've lost color, what are you biting, lelelele......."

When Jinnian heard what he said, he realized that his little snake, which was as white as jade, had faded. He looked at the ball in Zhang Rishan's hand and felt heartbroken.

He no longer remembered the quarrel with Qi Tiezui. He ran downstairs and took the little snake back from Zhang Rishan.

"What's wrong with you?"

Jinnian looked at the snake that was coiled in his palm and had turned dull gray, and gently touched its head.

The ground was a little cold, and there was only a carpet next to the bed. Jinnian was so cold that her toes curled up together and she wished she could stand on both feet.

Zhang Rishan let go of Qi Tiezui, gave him a warning look, walked forward, and picked him up horizontally.

"The ground is cold."

He carried Jinnian to the bed.

As soon as she stood up, Jinnian grabbed her clothes.

Jinnian shook it and held the little snake up to show him: "Rishan Rishan...my little snake has lost its color!"

Zhang Rishan saw Jinnian trying hard to lift the little snake, and the little snake raising its head and staring at him. The two pairs of bright eyes seemed to be overlapping.

He suppressed the urge to touch Jinnian's head and took the little snake from Jinnian's hands.

"Let me take a look for you."

Zhang Rishan turned the little snake over, and saw black and green spots under its belly.

"It's not losing color, it's shedding its skin."

When Jinnian heard that the snake was not discolored, he immediately became strong and touched the returned snake with heartache.

"Did you hear that? Master Ba! It didn't fade!"

The little snake puffed out its chest, just like the proud Jinnian behind it, which made Qi Tiezui so amused that his face froze with laughter.

"Eighth Master, I advise you not to tease the young master."

"Hey, hey, hey, please speak properly! I only teased you twice, how did that become flirting?!"

Qi Tiezui stopped talking immediately and nudged Zhang Rishan, telling him not to talk anymore. If the other two heard it, they would definitely punish him.

Zhang Rishan raised his eyebrows, and while the Buddha was away, he bumped back openly, then turned around to find shoes for Jinnian.

Qi Tiezui was hit so hard that his frame was broken, but he was the one who hit the other person first, and he was grimacing.

Before I could steady myself, I heard Jinnian say something shocking with a serious face.

"I'm going to tell my brother that you teased me!"

"Huh???"

"Wait a minute!!!"

"The adjutant just said it! No, it was me who said it, that's not called teasing! I was just teasing at best! Don't talk nonsense!!!"

Seeing Jinnian's head rising higher and higher, Qi Tiezui was shocked: "Ancestor! Stop! I'm wrong, I'm wrong, isn't it okay?!"

Jinnian counted with his hands how many times he had been bullied. Finally, he couldn't count anymore, so he raised his little hand and made the number "three".

"?"

"Three times. If you treat me to three meals at Cui Yu Xuan, I will forgive you! Don't forget to bring candy..."

"........."

"You're not allowed to say teasing, are you?"

"Uh-huh!"

When Jinnian saw that he agreed, she happily took the shoes that Zhang Rishan handed over to her.

Qi Tiezui smiled. Jinnian was still easy to coax. If it were someone else, they would probably spend all their money to get him to tell fortunes for free.

Zhang Rishan shook his head. They were almost used to the constant quarreling between the two of them, but neither of them was really angry. He twisted his fingers, and it seemed as if the cool and smooth touch of the little snake was still lingering on them.

He also wanted to be able to relax and talk to Jinnian without thinking about anything.

Zhang Rishan lowered his eyes when Jinnian suddenly called him.

"Rishan Rishan! Can I give you half?"

Looking at Jinnian's expectant eyes, Zhang Rishan couldn't help but smile, not like a smiling tiger, but like a docile big cat.

"it is good."

Qi Tiezui took a sip of tea and said coldly: "I thought you were as expressionless as Master Buddha, one has a cold face, and the other only smiles."

"Master Ba, if you don't know how to speak, you don't have to say anything."

He is Zhang Qishan's adjutant, and he is responsible for most of the social activities and arrangements. Zhang Qishan has to maintain his own dignity, and he acts as Zhang Qishan's agent, handling all matters for him. He tries his best to be good at dealing with people.

Zhang Rishan patted Qi Tiezui's shoulder with a smile: "Eighth Master, the tomb still needs to be dug."

Qi Tiezui slapped his hand away and began to feel sad about his rough fate. In the tomb, even if he was given a cannon, he would not use it. Didn't he need the protection of his adjutant and Master Buddha?

Zhang Qishan pushed the door open: "What did you say?"

Jinnian looked over and saw that when Qi Tiezui and Zhang Rishan were chatting, he had already put on his shoes and clothes and was studying how his little snake shed its skin.

Zhang Rishan glanced at the guilty Qi Tiezui with a teasing look, and watched Qi Tiezui change the subject.

"Oh, I didn't say anything. I was waiting for you to come back. How are you, are all the things ready?"

"almost."

"Adjutant, how is Chenpi doing?"

"Just looking at the human skin mask, we can't find anything, but the mask is well made, it doesn't look like something the Japanese could have made. Chen Pi is still keeping an eye on those foreigners."

Zhang Qishan nodded and took the little snake that Jinnian was showing him.

"Let him keep watching. Someone needs to watch the Japanese while we're away. Let him bring the smugglers back so that Second Master and I can take a closer look."

"Yes!"

Zhang Qishan held the snake through his gloves, picked it up and looked it up and down.

"Don't hurt it!"

Zhang Qishan smiled. Only Jinnian dared to talk to him like that.
