Chapter 407: Daddy, Mommy, An Uncle Is Running Away With Sister
“Why not?”
Lu Feng raised his voice agitatedly. “Zhang Ziqiang went to be a guide for a group of people this time and was drowned by the sandstorm on the road.”
“This was just a natural disaster. Didn’t the upper echelons say that he only disappeared? It’s possible that he’s still alive.”
“It’s not a natural disaster! We’ve always lived at the edge of the desert and are especially familiar with the desert’s weather. It’s impossible for there to be such a large sandstorm in this season.
“Moreover, we have a strong sense of when the sandstorm will come, and we will be prepared in advance. His disappearance proves that he won’t be coming back.”
At this point, Lu Feng picked up the wine in front of him and downed it in one go. A look of sadness flashed across his face.
“Brother Qin, let me give you a piece of advice. You’re a proper businessman. Don’t get involved in such illusory wealth. That tomb eats people. You won’t be able to return even if you go down.”
Li Yan placed a hand on the table and rapped his fingers on it twice before asking, “This time, it’s a national organization going to study the archaeology there. Since it’s a national organization, no one else dares to go, right?”
“Pfft! Zhang Ziqiang brought a group of outsiders in. Moreover, for some reason, this time, there are especially many people who want to go to the legendary imperial tomb. Especially not long ago, batches of people came.”
“There are so many people. Don’t the upper echelons care?”
“They have to be able to control them. The people who came aren’t simple. Not only were there people from the empire, but there were also foreigners. Many people even brought experts.”
“Since there are experts, they must be able to withstand the sandstorm. The disappearance of those people might be a disguise. Perhaps they have, in fact, long found the edge of the tomb.”
“Uh…” When Lu Feng heard this, his hand that was about to carry the wine glass paused and his face froze.
Li Yan added, “Isn’t an expert omnipotent? It’s impossible that he can’t even withstand a minor case of a nasty weather.”
Lu Feng fell silent.
Li Yan picked up the wine in front of him and took a sip.
At this moment, Lu Feng looked up at Li Yan with a trace of hope in his eyes. “Then Brother Qin, do you think Zhang Ziqiang is still alive?”
“I’m just deducing this with logic.”
Lu Feng fell silent again.
After a while, he picked up the glass in front of him and drank the wine that he had just poured. At this moment, not only was his face a little red, but his eyes were also a little red. He suddenly sighed and lowered his head.
“If only Zhang Ziqiang is really still alive. His wife is sick all year round and the child is so young. They definitely won’t be able to live like this.”
After all, they had moved over from the same town. Their relationship definitely wouldn’t be bad. Lu Feng certainly hoped that Zhang Ziqiang was still alive.
Li Yan poured the rest of the wine into their glasses and asked him, “If I asked you to follow a group of people into the desert to look for someone, would you go?”
Lu Feng’s body trembled and his expression was complicated. After drinking the wine in front of him, he gritted his teeth and said, “No. After all, my wife and children need me too. I don’t want to never return after going in there.”
“If the military asked you to enter, would you go?”
“The military?”
Lu Feng suddenly felt a little lost. At this moment, the sound of a child coughing after falling asleep came from the room. It was obvious that she had caught a cold.
Lu Feng shook his head. “Even then I won’t go.”
Li Yan nodded and didn’t say anything else. Instead, he stood up and said, “It’s getting late. My wife and I won’t disturb your rest.”
“Aye. I’ll send you guys off.” Lu Feng quickly stood up.
He had drunk a little too much and swayed slightly when he stood up.
“No need. We’ll go out by ourselves.”
After Li Yan finished speaking, he held Chu Luo’s hand and walked out of the door.
Li Yan had been hiding his aura previously. Now that he had suddenly returned to normal, Lu Feng was stunned and stopped.
After the two of them walked out, he muttered in confusion, “Why does this person feel different from before?”
He even shivered.
After Chu Luo and Li Yan walked out of the Lu residence, they still slowly walked forward.
Chu Luo asked, “Do we still have to meet the other two families?”
“No need.”
Li Yan suddenly wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her into his arms. He pressed his lips to her ear and said, “I’ll talk to the other two families tomorrow morning.”
The hot air mixed with the smell of alcohol sprayed into her ears.
Chu Luo couldn’t stand it anymore. She raised her hand and pushed his face to the side. “Don’t come so close to me.”
Li Yan deliberately stuck his head out a little more and continued to breathe hot air into her ear. “Luoluo, I’m drunk.”
Chu Luo turned to look at him with a straight face.
In the next second, her lips were attacked.
Chu Luo said awkwardly, “You liar. Most of the two bottles of wine went into Lu Feng’s stomach. You only drank two glasses at most.”
“Don’t you know that everyone gets intoxicated after drinking?”
The corners of Chu Luo’s lips subconsciously curled up, but she immediately retracted it. She continued to say to him with a straight face, “Don’t say such things outside.”
Li Yan’s lips curled up and he picked her up horizontally.
“Ah…”
Chu Luo jumped in fright and quickly punched his chest twice. “Big baddie, what if someone sees us?”
“There’s no one around.”
Just as Li Yan finished speaking, he heard a child’s curious cry from a courtyard not far away. “Daddy, Mommy, an uncle is running away with Sister in his arms.”
Chu Luo: “…”
How embarrassing…
Unexpectedly, Li Yan didn’t put her down and quickened his pace instead.
Chu Luo buried her head in Li Yan’s arms and wailed, “I’m too ashamed to face anyone!”
Li Yan was strong and even after running for a kilometer or two with Chu Luo in his arms, his heart wasn’t pounding and he wasn’t panting.
The two of them quickly walked back to the courtyard where they lived.
Chu Luo wanted to come down again.
“There’s no one inside.”
Li Yan didn’t let go at all. After carrying her into the courtyard, he even asked her to close the door.
The moment the two of them walked into the bedroom, Li Yan placed Chu Luo on the Kang bed-stove.
This was the first time Chu Luo had slept on such a bed. As soon as she was put down, she rolled around on it and said, “It’s so warm.”
In the next moment, Li Yan pounced on her and said in her ear, “I’m warmer. Do you want to try?”
Without giving Chu Luo a chance to answer, he pressed his lips against hers.
The temperature difference here was huge, and it was actually foggy at night.
The fog outside covered the sky, but the room was filled with passion.
Soon, a layer of mist formed on the window frame.
After some time, a soft pleading voice was heard in the room. “I’m not doing it again.”
Then, he coaxed in a low and hoarse voice, “Baby, be good. We’ll do it one last time. You can sleep more tomorrow morning.”
“I’m not…”
…
The fog outside the window became heavier.
Chu Luo didn’t open her eyes until past nine the next day.
When she woke up and came out, she realized that the entire world was covered by mist.
She stood by the door and looked out. After a while, she said to Li Yan, “This fog looks a little strange.”
Li Yan walked over and stood with her. “What’s strange?”
“The fog is supposed to be white. This fog has a bluish-white color, proving that someone is deliberately causing trouble.
Just as Chu Luo finished speaking, a bodyguard strode in from outside the courtyard.
The bodyguard said to the two of them, “Master, Miss Chu, many people in the village have difficulty breathing.”
“How are our people?”
“We’re all fine.”
Li Yan looked at Chu Luo.
Chu Luo said, “This kind of fog only affects ordinary people. It doesn’t affect people who have resistance after practicing martial arts for a long time.”
After saying that, she took out a bottle of medicine and handed it to the bodyguard. “Take this bottle to everyone. One pill for each of you.”
The bodyguard took the bottle and turned to leave.
Chu Luo and Li Yan were still standing there.
Li Yan asked her, “Can you feel any different energy fluctuations nearby?”
Chu Luo sensed it and nodded. “Someone has a weapon in their hand. The weapon carries a murderous aura. This mist was created by that weapon.”
After saying that, Chu Luo quickly took out a blank piece of yellow paper and threw it into the air. When the yellow paper floated in front of her, she took out the cinnabar box and handed it to Li Yan. “Yan, help me open the cinnabar box.”
Li Yan quickly opened the box and handed it to her.
Chu Luo tapped her index finger on the cinnabar and quickly drew talismans on the yellow paper floating in front of her. As she drew, she chanted an incantation.
After the talisman was drawn, she called out, “Up.” The talisman flew out of the courtyard.
In less than a minute, the color of the fog turned white at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye. Then, it became thinner. Soon, the sunlight was shooting towards the ground.
Chu Luo told Li Yan, “I sealed that murder weapon, but we can go and see what’s going on.”
She was about to leave when Li Yan grabbed her wrist. “Have breakfast first.”
Only then did Chu Luo realize that her stomach was rumbling with hunger.
Li Yan pulled her in. “I’ll warm your breakfast on the stove then bring it over for you.”
After saying that, he walked to the side. Indeed, there was a stove on the left side of the hall and a food box on it.
After Chu Luo finished eating, she walked out of the door with Li Yan.
Just as she reached the door, she heard two bodyguards talking outside.
One of the bodyguards said, “In the morning, there seemed to be a woman who was bewitched by the mist just now and hasn’t woken up yet. Her man isn’t at home.”
The other one: “I was wondering why there was a child crying so loudly over there.”
Chu Luo immediately thought of that child called Iron Egg and said to Li Yan, “Yan, let’s go take a look first.”
