Soon Huo Yingjie received a letter from his parents, in which they said they would come over during the Chinese New Year to arrange the wedding.
He Jingyu and his wife also received the letter. The letter was sincere and carefully worded, expressing their great liking for He Tiantian and their hope that their son, He Tiantian, could get married soon.
To be on the safe side, they will come in person to discuss the details.
The Huo family's cautious approach pleased He Jingyu and his wife.
This is a good thing; it always takes time and effort.
He Tiantian was very happy to hear the contents of the letter, but girls should be reserved, so she either hid in the kitchen cooking or stayed in her room and didn't come out.
Huo Yingjie, who wanted to take a few more glances at He Tiantian, was speechless.
You've been engaged for so long, shouldn't marriage be a natural next step? Is it a bit late to be shy now?
However, He Tiantian, with her delicate and shy face, is like a water lily budding, elegant and lovely, exuding a sweet fragrance.
Huo Yingjie could only look, not eat, which was a great pity.
On this day, Huo Yingjie and He Tiantian went up the mountain together.
"Wait! There's someone ahead." Huo Yingjie had been so engrossed in flirting with He Tiantian that he hadn't paid much attention to his surroundings. He only realized what was happening when they were almost up close.
He Tiantian covered her mouth and looked at him questioningly.
Huo Yingjie listened intently; although the distance was great, it was not a problem for him.
Haha, they really are tomb raiders!
It seems this group of tomb raiders came by; they're probably the same group that escaped before.
Huo Yingjie and He Tiantian left cautiously, not wanting to confront these people head-on.
He wouldn't care if he were alone, but with He Tiantian by his side, he wouldn't take the risk.
Once they arrived at Peach Garden, He Tiantian felt slightly relieved and asked, "Brother Yingjie, who are those people? Can you hear what they're saying?"
“I can vaguely tell, those are tomb raiders,” Huo Yingjie said. “I think I also heard those people say that they got some good stuff here last time and sold it for a lot of money. This time they’re going to do something big, enough to live on for a lifetime.”
He Tiantian was taken aback and said, "It really is these tomb raiders! We need to call the police! Those people have guns, we can't handle them."
gun?
Are they those inferior weapons?
Fine, if He Tiantian doesn't want him to get involved, then he'll agree. He can always help her out privately.
He Tiantian told Secretary Qi what had happened to them.
Upon hearing this, Secretary Qi dared not delay and immediately reported it.
Because the ancient tomb unearthed in Qijia Village had shocked the whole country and even the world, the news that Secretary Qi had discovered traces of tomb raiders in the back mountain of Qijia Village immediately attracted the attention of the higher authorities.
This time, not only was Director Yang dispatched to investigate whether there were any large tombs nearby, but Qiling was also sent to continue tracking down the tomb robbers from that year, as well as an infantry company.
With these people stationed in the back mountain of Qijia Village, Secretary Qi felt relieved, at least the safety of the village was guaranteed.
As for the treasures on the back mountain, Secretary Qi doesn't care. Even if he did, they wouldn't belong to him, much less to Qi Family Village.
On Mount Hua, Cui Ying looked at each other in bewilderment when she saw so many people coming to the back mountain.
"Senior brother, has our whereabouts been leaked?" Cui Ying asked cautiously. This time, they had completed all the necessary procedures before going down the mountain, so there shouldn't be any mistake.
Hua Shan looked towards the back mountain and said softly, "There's no need to rush for now, let's wait and see."
They've concealed their influence, and the villagers probably won't discover it.
“I always felt that the back mountain of Qijia Village was unusual, especially that hot spring pool,” Cui Ying said. “I went to take a bath with my roommate Huang Jingli. It was very comfortable and seemed to be very beneficial to our cultivation.”
"You discovered it too?" Hua Shan smiled wryly. "Master calculated that there was a rare treasure in this place and sent us here. We haven't found the treasure yet, but we have found a hot spring that is helpful for cultivation."
Cui Ying nodded and said, "Yes, I found out. I've been going there these past few days. It's a pity that the people in this village are so ignorant, thinking this hot spring is a fertility-granting hot spring."
“Don’t talk about these people,” Hua Shan said. “Perhaps they are not as smart as us, but they are not stupid. Besides, isn’t it normal for ordinary people to get married, start a family, and have children? It’s almost like a hot spring that brings children. Look at the sudden increase in the number of children in this village, there’s a reason for it.”
“What a waste,” Cui Ying said. “It would be great if this hot spring were on our mountain.”
Hua Shan smiled. Their place of cultivation was far away from here, so it was impossible to move the hot spring there or the place of cultivation here.
“Senior brother, let’s go to the back mountain tomorrow. Last time I went out at night, I saw some suspicious people.” Cui Ying said, “They probably weren’t doing anything legitimate.”
"You don't need to go, I can go myself," Hua Shan said. "We'll make plans after we've investigated."
“Yes, Senior Brother!” Cui Ying replied.
The next day, Huashan went to the back mountain.
However, some areas on the back of the mountain were guarded by soldiers, so we couldn't go up Mount Hua. We had to take a detour and go deep into the mountains.
Traces were found in a cave deep in the mountains.
Using a secret technique, one can see into the cave from a distance of one mile from Mount Hua.
"Brother Lu, you're so clever. You've dug several holes in those cracks to attract their attention." One of the men, Ma Si, lit a cigarette for Lu Lao Er with a match and spoke words of flattery from the bottom of his heart.
They had traveled a long and arduous journey and were exhausted.
But the second brother made them dig some useless tomb-raiding holes, which puzzled everyone.
However, under the second brother's orders, everyone had no choice but to do it. After more than a week, they finally dug several useless holes in different locations on the back mountain.
When the soldiers with real guns and nuclear weapons were stationed near the tunnel they had dug, they realized that this was their second brother's plan, a feint to the east while attacking the west, a feint to the east while secretly crossing the Chencang pass.
As a result, all those damned archaeological experts and soldiers were so focused on the looters' tunnels that no one noticed they had other routes.
"Hehe, you guys have a lot to learn! We'll go down into the tomb tomorrow night, and the day after tomorrow we'll fly far away." Lu Lao Er said smugly. The last mission made him the family heir, but his eldest brother hadn't returned, so some people in the clan suspected that he had killed his eldest brother in order to seize the position of heir.
There are two tasks this time. If you complete one of them, Lu Lao Er can inherit the position of family head.
Lu Lao Er originally came to find Lu Lao Da, but unexpectedly discovered another large tomb here.
If I hadn't been so careless before, I should have noticed it much earlier.
