Chapter 27
The elevator arrived.
When the four people came out, the woman looked back at the elevator and looked down at Zhang Qiu.
Zhang Qiu unexpectedly felt a little hairy. If this kind of imperial older sister beauty type was put out to stir up the previous him, he would have been blindly elated. Now he just thought that the woman’s smile was not interesting.
The elevator door closed slowly, and Pixian HuiWang suddenly spoke out in cold voice. “Is it them?”
Li Shu pointed to his head down a bit, and there was something cold beneath his eyes.
"What riddles do you play?" Zhang Qiu was in a fog. "Are those four people bad? Let me said, when that woman smiled at me, I felt hairy from the bottom of my heart. Turned out there was something wrong with them ah!"
After listening to Zhang Qiu, the cold meaning of Li Shu was somewhat scattered. “Ding -” The elevator arrived, and the three people left the elevator and returned to the room. Li Shu said, “The one who will show us the way is here.”
Zhang Qiu didn’t react to it. After a pause, he suddenly realized, “Do you mean they know the exact place?”
“Hn.” Li Shu laughed and said, “Have encountered them before.”
Zhang Qiu thought of what he remembered and said with surprise, “is that the subcompact car that leapt to the green area?” When he saw Li Shu nodding, he asked, “But they wanted to steal the bead. Why did they steal bead and go to the tomb?”
“It shows that the four people were sent by the people behind Lao Jin.” Pixian HuiWang opened his mouth and said with a murderous look when he mentioned the people behind, coldly said, “Whatever the plot, I’m going to pull it out sooner or later.”
Zhang Qiu felt as if he had been caught in a huge conspiracy since the tomb of Gu Mu Country in Qinling Mountain, and that they were advancing in accordance with a plot deployed by the people behind it. He felt a little frightened to think of it here. The plot plotted by unknown people was more terrible than the plot plotted by a zongzi in the tomb.
Early the next morning, Li Shu went out to buy something and left Zhang Qiu and Pixian HuiWang at the hotel. Zhang Qiu knew that Li Shu was going to buy the outfits for going down the pit and didn’t clamor to go with him.
He followed Pixian HuiWang to a hotel restaurant for dinner, and met Lu Feng, who wanted to buy the Phoenix Bead when they first met. The other side sat in the corner sofa, just finished talking on the phone, he looked a little heavy, took off the glasses and rubbed his temples, probably feeling he was being watched, looked at it and suddenly found them, put on the glasses again came over.
“Mr. Liu, I want to talk to you again.”
Pixian HuiWang didn’t raise his head and said, “if it has nothing to do with the bead,”
Zhang Qiu noticed that when Pixian HuiWang talked about the bead, all the customers in the entire restaurant closed to them were secretly twisting their attention to them, while Mr. Lu nodded, not knowing what to think, he turned away.
After a while, Zhang Qiu found that the three men and one woman came.
“Here they come. Shall we go back?” Zhang Qiu whispered to Pixian HuiWang.
Pixian HuiWang’s line of sight moved to the people, and the faintly said, “no, they will not come forward.”
True enough, the four people sat far away from them, not looking up at their table, as if they were real tourists, and soon went out after breakfast.
Zhang Qiu waited in the hotel for most of the day until Li Shu came back with a big black bag in the afternoon. After meeting, he directing said to depart.
Not long after they got on the road, as expected was followed by a low-key black SUV, driven by the man dressed up as a bodyguard, not far from them, followed closely.
"In the end why did they come here? To say that the purpose is to delay the bead but did not start attacking, their purpose must be the tomb, therefore they have been watching us." Zhang Qiu said, but his hand were not idle. He took apart Li Shu’s big bag, which contained not only food, water and medicine, but also ropes, gloves, flashlights, gas masks and a small Luoyang shovel. They came with backpacks, simple laundry changes, and now divide food, water, and medicines into three parts, each stuffed with some to prevent them from getting lost.
Pixian HuiWang could not help but smiled at Zhang Qiu’s diligently smoothed out the luggage and said gently, “Xiao Qiu is really an essential for travel care.”
Zhang Qiu heard and lifted up his eyes, bumped into Pixian HuiWang’s soft watery eyes, unlike the virtuous tenderness of a maiden, it’s hard to say, but it made people want to be close. The eyes seemed to be full of stars. No wonder Han Emperor would rather sacrifice his life and try to save Pixian HuiWang.
The man was gentle enough to dissolve human into a puddle.
“I was also caught in the pit.” Zhang Qiu saw Pixian HuiWang in a good mood, picking up the previous experience and said, “... As soon as the coffin of Gu Mu Country’s main tomb in Qinling was opened, it was a bluish green piece. I heard the man in front of me shouting without seeing anything. I didn’t know who pushed me. I bumped into the mechanism on the wall and fell straight down. Then I saw scarlet eyes and fainted —” Speaking of this, he was angry, but the content after that could not be said, swallowing his anger, he said: "Then I went to your tomb and I was separated with Li Shu, but I was saved by second brother and MaoGe. There was nothing beside me at that time. I was so insecure that I thought I would take some with me if I had to go down in the tomb. This time I’m not afraid of losing my shoulder bag like Xianxi."
Pixian HuiWang nodded, with his lips hooked up he looked at Li Shu in front, smiled and asked, “I saw when you’re talking about Gu Mu Country, you’re gnashing your teeth, not to mention the scarlet eyes. Could it be, there’s a connection?”
Zhang Qiu felt embarrassed and unwilling to say anything, but when he remembered the tomb, he was angry and said, “If I ever meet those scarlet eyes again, I’ll never spare him. I’ll make him a specimen and put him on display in the museum.” He actually wanted to pick the other’s skin, but he dared not. Thinking of that something in his stomach, he was angry to the point of toothache, silently looked at Li Shu, really wanted to tell Li Shu about the tomb.
All blame to that rotten zongzi!
“Big rotten zongzi!” Zhang Qiu’s insoluble hatred scolded a sentence.
Pixian HuiWang laughed happily, echoing Zhang Qiu. “I don’t know what you’ve been through, but looking at you like this, this zongzi is really rotten.”
“Sit tight, Song Bao.” The driving Li Shu suddenly said.
Zhang Qiu was about to protest Li Shu’s address to him when the car suddenly speeded up. He lifted his buttocks and fell back into his seat. The gentle smile on Pixian HuiWang’s face could not be maintained, and soon the car entered the woods, making it even more bumpy. Zhang Qiu looked like a roller coaster rider, and next to him, Pixian HuiWang looked ugly and tightly gripping the handrail, paled face.
He knew that Pixian HuiWang was more carsick than he was, but he had the reserve of the ancients and didn’t like to lose his manners in front of outsiders, and he held up every time. Zhang Qiu couldn’t say a word about the bump. His buttocks were split in two. Rather than slowing down, the car was still circuiting through the woods. He sat up and clung to handrail and looked behind him. The familiar black SUV was gone. He could not help but said, “Li–Li Shu, slow down, slow down, and the car behind is gone.”
In a word, all split up and in pieces by the jolt.
Li Shu in front looked through the rear mirror at Pixian HuiWang’s pale face, smiled, the car accelerated instead of slowing down. Zhang Qiu held the handrail tightly, the car was windy, and plunged into a thick grass half-waist high, slammed on a brake, and the car stopped.
Pixian HuiWang could no longer help, the car had not stopped, he get off the car, jumped to a tree not far away, vomiting.
Li Shu picked up his eyebrows and didn’t look at Pixian HuiWang. He handed the water bottle to Zhang Qiu, “drink some water.”
Zhang Qiu took the water bottle and went to Pixian HuiWang, handed it to the other person to gargle. He saw the person was alright, just a bit of a disgrace, but even so in this state he was especially beautiful.
“Come here, Song Bao.”
Zhang Qiu was unhappy, protesting, “who is Song?! Don’t call me Song Bao later.” He took the water Li Shu handed him, drank it slowly, and was in a much better state. Seeing Li Shu twisting his eyebrows, he thought for a moment and said, “If you want to call, just call when there are the two of us, otherwise I’ll lose face in front of outsiders.”
“Pixian HuiWang is not an outsider.” Li Shu himself found that his words were not right.
Zhang Qiu thought and nodded, “That’s true.”
Li Shu was cold all at once, and Zhang Qiu didn’t pay attention to it, he whispered to himself: “Pixian HuiWang is my second brother’s wifey, he’s a family member. We should take good care of people.”
“If it weren’t for your brother’s relationship...” Li Shu said in a smaller voice.
Zhang Qiu didn’t catch it, “What are you talking about?”
“Nothing.” Li Shu looked at Pixian HuiWang in the distance and knew that with the other’s ears he (PHW) should have heard what he had just said. If it hadn’t been for Zhang Qiu, he would not give a minor punishment and warned him.
It was getting late, and there were camping tents and camp lights in the back compartment. Zhang Qiu wanted to set up a tent and stove to cook. He was stopped by Li Shu. “No, people should come.”
Zhang Qiu knew that the three men and woman were chasing after them. He looked at Li Shu silently. Li Shu suddenly hugged him. At the foot of a tree, just like light work, the spark was very good, with a light posture jumping onto a big tree, holding him seemed not affected by gravity.
“This is cool!” Zhang Qiu said in a startled voice, consciously too loud, lowered his voice to Li Shu’s ear, “How did you do that? Like a master of martial arts? ”
Li Shu turned his head. The two people’s faces were very close to each other, and their breathing mingled. Zhang Qiu leaned back after few minutes feeling embarrassed, and was slowly approached by a big hand behind him. Li Shu’s lips had already attached to his. After a little tasting, Zhang Qiu turned red. Fortunately, Pixian HuiWang knew Li Shu’s limit sense of propiety—
Before he had finished that thought, Li Shu’s lips drew closer again, this time like a storm, eager to swallow Zhang Qiu, Zhang Qiu was short of breath. The soft legs of his loved ones almost rolled down the tree, Li Shu hugged him tightly, eyes staring at him like a hungry wolf.
Zhang Qiu was oxygen-deficit by his beloved, his head was dizzy but his hands were still clutching Li Shu’s clothes when they were separated.
“Strange your eyes...”
Li Shu kissed the Zhang Qiu’s eyelid and pressed down the palpitation in his heart, “What’s the matter?”
Zhang Qiu shook his head. “It’s nothing, maybe it’s just lack of oxygen that I was seeing things.” Just now in a split second Li Shu’s eyes were a little red. It’s possible that he really just misread.
