Chapter 136 Chapter 138 Walking Alone on a Rainy Night
Rong Xianxian flashed into Cui Lie's room. Cui Lie had just taken off his coat and was only wearing a vest. His training pants were a little dirty, and he was unbuckling his belt to change his pants.
Hearing a slight "click" sound from the door, Cui Lie turned around, and Rong Xianxian removed the barrier bead and revealed her figure!
Cui Lie looked at Rong Xianxian, who was acting a little sneakily, and his ears turned red. He was a little at a loss, not knowing what to say or what to do!
Rong Xianxian didn't expect Cui Lie to have misunderstood something. She looked at the silent and dazed Cui Lie with some surprise and said softly, "Ah Lie, Xiao Luo and Xuan Xuan are asleep. I need to go out for a while. Can you go over there and help me look after them?"
After hearing what Rong Xianxian said, Cui Lie raised his head and said, "The weather outside is bad and it's dark. It's too dangerous for you to go out. Can't you do it tomorrow?" Knowing that he had misunderstood Rong Xianxian's meaning, Cui Lie had no time to curse what was in his mind and said with great concern!
"I have something I must do tonight." Rong Xianxian insisted.
"Then let Wang Lin and Jiang Jie look after the child, I'll go with you!" Cui Lie quickly put on his coat and was about to go out to look for someone.
"Come back." Rong Xianxian grabbed his arm and pushed Cui Lie down on the sofa in the room!
Cui Lie's ears turned red again. This time, Rong Xianxian also noticed the strange atmosphere. Realizing that her action was a little inappropriate, Rong Xianxian quickly let go and pretended to cough lightly, "This is someone else's territory. We are new here. Our every move is under the eyes of others. We should not go out easily and cause misunderstandings."
Going to that place doesn't mean it's safe just because there are more people. There are many dangers in there, and Rong Xianxian doesn't want Jiang Jie and the others to take risks.
As for Liu Qingchen, their current relationship was nothing more than Rong Xianxian using her medical skills in exchange for the opportunity to stay here. If they were to talk too much about their relationship, it would only make them more likely to be suspected. If she told them about the small secret realm, and if too many of Liu Qingchen's men were killed or injured, Rong Xianxian would inevitably be blamed.
Of course Rong Xianxian did not deny that she also had her own selfish motives. Telling one more person might not only create an extra burden, but also require her to share an extra share. She did not want to share those golden fruits with others at the moment, as they were rare treasures in the world.
Cui Lie frowned, still disagreeing with Rong Xianxian acting alone.
"Okay, stop dithering. I feel at ease leaving the child to you. You know my strength. I will be back soon. Don't let others find out that I'm out. I'm leaving!" Rong Xianxian said a few words in a stern manner, activated the invisibility barrier, and slipped away as a courtesy.
"Click" the door opened again, "Oh" Cui Lie watched Rong Xianxian disappear.
"What's wrong? Captain Cui!" Wang Lin was out on patrol. When he heard Cui Lie's voice, he leaned over to ask.
"It's okay, the ground is a bit slippery." Cui Lie said expressionlessly.
"Oh!" Wang Lin looked at the floor under Cui Lie's feet suspiciously, "Is it slippery?"
Cui Lie watched Wang Lin walking around the yard in a bamboo hat, and when he saw nothing unusual, he went back to his room.
Cui Lie looked around and saw that the doors of Wang Lin, Jiang Jie and their rooms were all closed. He slipped into Rong Xianxian's room like a thief!
Liu Qingchen was leaning on a rattan green bamboo chair, holding a crystal ball the size of a football in his hand. The crystal ball was pure and transparent, with a faint pink glow on the surface. He was casually looking at some images that flashed from time to time on the surface of the crystal ball. There were images of monsters that attacked from the outskirts of Baihua Town stepping into traps, and images of inner circle patrol personnel sneaking into the kitchen to find food. The image of Cui Lie sneaking into Rong Xianxian's room appeared on the crystal ball, which made him stand up subconsciously. He stared at the movements in that room closely. After Cui Lie went in, there was no movement!
Liu Qingchen felt uncomfortable thinking about the satisfied and eager look Aunt Hu gave Rong Xianxian!
I didn't expect they had this kind of relationship!
Never mind. Out of sight, out of mind. Liu Qingchen put away the crystal ball in a distracted manner and paced back and forth in the room in annoyance.
Rong Xianxian walked out of the courtyard with the help of the invisibility barrier. The sky outside was so dark that it was pitch dark. Rong Xianxian's extremely abnormal eyesight was useless and she still could not see anything.
Her space was full of oil lamps, hand-cranked high-beam lamps, and fully-charged solar-powered high-beam lamps, but unfortunately she couldn't take any of them out. If she dared to turn on the lights, she might attract the inspectors.
But don't be afraid. Rong Xianxian put on the night vision goggles that she had prepared long ago and walked out of Baihua Town with familiarity.
Rong Xianxian took another road. The traps on this road were denser than the one she took during the day, and most of them were large and powerful. This road faced the direction of the hawthorn forest. The traps were all aimed at monsters or beasts, and were relatively conspicuous. Rong Xianxian saw a dead three-eyed monster in a trap full of sharp knives. There was a ball of light floating above the monster, and she couldn't tell what treasure was inside. The patrol team was already rushing in this direction with oil lamps. Rong Xianxian felt a little itchy when she saw this. She was now hiding in the invisibility barrier, so even if she took the things away, Liu Qingchen would have nowhere to check.
"Pah pah" Rong Xianxian quickly stopped her thoughts, stopped, turned around and left. As long as she killed monsters, there was a chance to get treasures. There was really no need to be jealous of other people's things.
Rong Xianxian didn't know that during the time she stayed around the trap just now, the pink crystal ball in Liu Qingchen's hand was rippling corresponding to her position, as if ripples were appearing on the water surface, and a vague outline had gradually appeared. As she turned and left, all the images disappeared again.
Liu Qingchen obviously noticed this strange phenomenon. He put on his straw raincoat with concern, picked up the oil lamp and walked out.
The rumbling thunder covered the entire earth under the sky. The sound seemed far away in the sky, yet close to the ears, and was everywhere.
Occasionally a flash of lightning streaks across the sky, illuminating the quiet night on earth.
"Swish, swish, swish" big raindrops fell densely on the surrounding leaves, making bursts of swish sounds. After a while, the raindrops turned into rain curtains, and the rain curtains turned into rain curtains!
Rong Xianxian hid in the barrier light curtain. Rays of rain washed the barrier light curtain supported by the barrier beads. Rong Xianxian felt that the consumption of spiritual energy in her body was increasing. Although she had sufficient spiritual energy reserves, she might have to rely on the flying carpet, a big consumer of spiritual energy, to take action tonight. Rong Xianxian glanced at the location of the hawthorn forest, changed into a raincoat, removed the barrier beads, and continued to move forward.
