Chapter 129 Chapter 131 Looking for My Aunt
Rong Xianxian had stayed here for a period of time in her previous life. Later, she went to the depths of the hawthorn forest to look for that secret space, but she found nothing!
She didn't know whether that place appeared only at special times or because of the unusual weather that night, but she never saw it again, so she had to explore that place tonight, and for safety reasons, it would be safer for the children to stay here.
She has a barrier bead that can make her invisible, a soul-calming bell that can assist in sneak attacks, the ever-changing Thousand Silk Threads, and a space sachet that contains many Vajra Talismans, Exorcism Talismans, Soul Storage Talismans and various talismans. She has also almost figured out how to use the flying carpet that can fly and defend, so she plans to explore alone. This way, if she encounters danger, she won't have to be distracted and can escape.
Although the weather was gloomy and foggy, it was only five or six in the afternoon and the road was still clearly visible.
Cui Lie and the others were unable to overcome Rong Xianxian's insistence, and watched with some worry as Rong Xianxian used her skills to easily cross the small ditch that was more than two meters wide.
Rong Xianxian has just started practicing the "Wind Control Technique". The difficulty of practicing this technique is much higher than the "Light Body Technique", but after practicing it, her body posture is much more agile and flexible than that of the "Light Body Technique", and initial results have been seen.
This small ditch was built mainly to block foreign vehicles and some reptiles and beasts. After crossing the small ditch, there are many traps all the way to the town where people live. Most of the traps on the periphery are relatively obvious, mainly used to prevent attacks from monsters or beasts. The closer to the town, the more hidden the traps are. Rong Xianxian had walked this road many times in her previous life, so she could naturally tell where the traps were.
But when she was about a few hundred meters away from the group of houses, she pretended to accidentally step into a more hidden trap. It was a siege trap, and Rong Xianxian stepped on empty air and fell into it.
The sound of Rong Xianxian falling into the trap quickly alarmed the patrol personnel on duty, and she was brought to Liu Qingchen.
Rong Xianxian didn't tidy up her appearance, and the dirt on her clothes made her look a little disheveled.
She had just held the children in her arms, and Xiao Luo and Xuan Xuan didn't even get their clothes dirty. Perhaps the children didn't feel that Rong Xianxian was panicking or nervous, and thought they were playing a game. When Xiao Luo was rescued just now, he was still very excited and wanted to jump again.
Rong Xianxian was speechless. Did she fall into the trap on purpose to lower their vigilance? After all, in her previous life, people took her in and helped her when she was in trouble and miserable. It was out of kindness to help the weak. But her situation today was very different from that in her previous life. If the owner of this place saw her walking briskly on this road full of traps and mechanisms as if she was in an empty space, I wonder what he would think?
Liu Qingchen is not a kind-hearted person with overflowing sympathy. It is not easy to get him to nod and accept their stay here for one night.
Liu Qingchen stood in front of the window and turned around. He had a graceful figure, skin as crystal clear as jade, and a red dress that made him look as handsome as a peach.
At this moment, he was staring at Rong Xianxian with a scrutinizing look, his brows slightly furrowed, his eyes clearly filled with wariness and distrust.
When his gaze turned to Xiao Luo and Xuan Xuan, his eyes softened involuntarily.
"Why didn't your companions come in with you?" Liu Qingchen looked her up and down and finally asked.
Rong Xianxian was stunned. Cui Lie and his men stopped at the edge of the town. The distance was long, the trees were intertwined, and the weather was gloomy and misty. How did Liu Qingchen know of their existence?
Is he trying to trick me?
"I know everything that's going on around this town. You don't need to know the reason, you just need to answer my questions." Liu Qingchen seemed to see her confusion and said lightly.
"Then how many companions do I have?" Rong Xianxian asked persistently. She lived here for many days in her previous life and thought that Liu Qingchen had a good impression of her. How could she not know that Liu Qingchen also had the means to monitor the outside world?
"Five." Liu Qingchen said with a chuckle.
"I asked them to wait outside. There is no other intention. The main reason is that the traps outside are too obvious. If we break in without telling you, we're afraid it will cause misunderstanding. That's why I came here alone with the children." Rong Xianxian was somewhat glad that she didn't wander around, or find a way to cross the ditch by herself!
No wonder she was pulled out just after she fell into the pit. It seems that their arrival has attracted Liu Qingchen's attention.
Liu Qingchen nodded slightly, indicating that he agreed with Rong Xianxian's explanation.
"Well, more than half of the five people outside are from the military, and each of them is battle-hardened and very powerful. Why did you come to our town?" Liu Qingchen stared at Rong Xianxian with a sneer.
"No. 138 East Street is my aunt's house. I'm here to visit my aunt!" Rong Xianxian had already thought of her words and said without changing her expression.
She had no ill intentions, and if a white lie could save her from a lot of trouble, she would not feel any psychological burden.
"Under the current situation, most people in this town have gone to the safe zone. Shouldn't we go to the safe zone to look for people?" Liu Qingchen snorted and said disapprovingly.
"What if my aunt didn't leave?" The aunt that Rong Xianxian was talking about used to be a neighbor of Liu Qingchen's family.
"Do you know my aunt? Even if my aunt is not here, it's getting late today and my companions and I would like to stay here for one night." Rong Xianxian said calmly.
"Aunt Liu went to the safe zone with her son and daughter three months ago, but why should I believe you?" Liu Qingchen still looked unfriendly.
Rong Xianxian suddenly seemed to remember something, and she looked at Liu Qingchen carefully.
"My aunt mentioned you. You must be the youngest son of Aunt Hu. When I spoke to my aunt on the phone more than half a year ago, she said that Aunt Hu was really blessed. Although she had a stroke, her youngest son gave up his military post and retired to go home in order to stay by her side and take care of her. Is Aunt Hu feeling better now?" Having said that, Rong Xianxian finally used her big move.
In order to repay Liu Qingchen for saving her life in her previous life, Rong Xianxian gave acupuncture treatment to Aunt Hu for half a month. She had heard a lot of gossip from Aunt Hu, and when she brought it up now, the wariness in Liu Qingchen's eyes subsided a little.
"You can go ask Aunt Hu. My aunt once told her that her niece is a doctor in the hospital and knows acupuncture. Aunt Hu should still remember that my aunt was talking about me at that time. Is Aunt Hu in good health? I can take a look for her." Rong Xianxian said with a smile!
