When they returned, the villagers warmly saw them off at the village entrance. In the police car, Wei Dong patted his round belly and sighed, "People in the mountains are still the best."
"Of course! The common people are all very lovely. As long as they have food to eat, they don't have so much scheming and infighting."
"This is called pure thinking. Some people, the more they read, the more serious errors they make in their thinking."
Despite the bumpy road, Wei Dong was in a good mood. This time, he had successfully completed his mission and no longer had to worry.
Chengdu-Chongqing City, Huayu Building.
Chen Feng and Li Qingning were in the office. Chen Feng was packing some things, while Li Qingning sat in front of the computer, her eyes fixed on the screen. Her expression changed from excitement to surprise to frowning, making her quite a sight to behold.
"I'm all packed."
Chen Feng packed a few clothes and called out, but received no response.
He turned around and looked at the mesmerized Li Qingning, then stepped forward and patted her on the shoulder. Unexpectedly, this startled Li Qingning, who suddenly stood up and exclaimed.
"Is it really that good? I'm so mesmerized."
"What are you doing? You scared me."
Li Qingning, still shaken, pointed at the computer and said, "You...you wrote this?"
"yes."
"Chen Feng, you weren't a tomb raider before, were you? This is written so realistically, it's so good."
Li Qingning stared at a folder on the computer called "Ghost Blows Out the Light" (original work by Tianxia Bachang), her eyes filled with disbelief.
The first-person perspective and the strong sense of immersion quickly drew Li Qingning into that strange world.
"How about that? Isn't your husband amazing?"
"Impressive? Pshaw... Get lost..."
Li Qingning blushed, her face turning as red as the most beautiful sunset.
"You're going to meet your in-laws soon, aren't you?"
Chen Feng made a joke on purpose.
"If you continue like this, go back alone."
Li Qingning rolled her eyes at him and was about to sit down and continue reading her novel.
"Stop looking, I've packed my things."
"Oh my, let me watch a little longer, it's so good! I really want to know how that giant centipede on Ping Mountain was defeated."
Li Qingning was almost completely captivated.
That's right, this is the nearly 200,000-word novel "Ghost Blows Out the Light: The Wrath of Xiangxi" that Chen Feng spent three days and three nights typing out in his office.
His next book, "Ghost Blows Out the Light: The Ancient City of Jingjue," is set to be published when the novel industry in China and even globally is still in its infancy. This book is sure to revolutionize the entire novel industry.
Most importantly, the copyright revenue and uses that this book would bring were the reasons why Chen Feng decided to start writing it first. On Earth, the popularity and love for this book were terrifying. It's not hard to imagine what kind of storm would be stirred up if a gold brick were suddenly thrown into the barren land of novels on Earth.
Just look at how infatuated Chen Feng's girlfriend, Li Qingning, is now, and you can get a glimpse of it. What kind of family does Li Qingning come from? She has visited historical sites all over the world since she was a child. What hasn't she seen?
Yet, Chen Feng still managed to completely overwhelm them with his Ghost Blows Out the Light, demonstrating just how much of an impact it would have on the minds of Earth's inhabitants.
The reason Chen Feng decided to write this book first was that ancient tombs have been discovered all over Earth, many of which have been destroyed, but the country doesn't seem to care much about this.
It can be said that Earth's development and structure are almost identical to those of Blue Star, but there are also some differences. For example, in a certain major country on Blue Star, all important resources and treasures belong to the country.
For example, if you find diamonds, gold, antiques, ebony, etc., excavating an ancient tomb is still illegal. However, if you find valuable items and don't hand them over, it's also illegal. But if you hand them over, you'll receive a banner of appreciation.
But in China and even the whole world, any unclaimed property belongs to whoever finds it.
There is an important condition here: "ownerless property".
If you can prove that this item wasn't dropped by someone else and doesn't have an owner, then you can own it.
This includes ancient tombs. As long as the tomb has no descendants or is not managed, it's okay for you to dig it up.
Seeing Li Qingning once again immersed in the novel, Chen Feng couldn't resist his little fangirl's urges and, out of boredom, made a phone call to his mother.
He originally wanted to surprise his mother, but then thought better of it.
Unexpectedly, before he could even make the call, his elderly mother called him on her own initiative.
"Hey, Mom!"
"Hey son, I have something to tell you."
"Mom, what is it?"
I'm going on a long trip tomorrow.
Chen Feng was stunned. A long trip? Judging from his mother's voice, she seemed very excited and happy. What was going on?
"Mom, you're so old, why are you going on such a long trip? Where are you going?"
"Hehe, your mom is benefiting from your help. This time, I'm going to Beijing, which is the capital of our country. Your mom has never been to see it in her entire life."
The old mother's voice on the phone was full of joy.
"What? You're going to the capital? No, Mom, what are you going there for? I just finished packing and was about to come back."
"What? You're coming back? No, no, no, what are you coming back for?"
The elderly mother seemed very unhappy, and her tone was very firm.
Chen Feng was speechless. His mother used to be so happy when she heard that he was going back. What was wrong with her today? Had she been tricked by someone?
Thinking of this, Chen Feng immediately became nervous. He quickly said, "Mom, isn't it just a few days until the New Year? I'll come back to have New Year's Eve dinner with you."
"What's there to eat? Who's going to have New Year's Eve dinner with you? You'd better hurry up and go to Beijing to wait for me. We'll eat together during the Spring Festival Gala."
Hearing the voice on the phone, Chen Feng was completely dumbfounded.
What was my own mother saying? She even showed up at the Spring Festival Gala! I've definitely been scammed.
"Why aren't you saying anything, you brat? Let me tell you, Secretary Wei personally came to our house to invite us. What can I say about you? He's a government official, after all. Inviting you to sing is a matter of bringing honor to our ancestors. And you still refuse?"
"Such a big matter, and you actually refused it for a meal? We're just an old woman, there's always time to eat. Let me tell you, I agreed to the karaoke thing for you. You should hurry up and go to Beijing. Secretary Wei is so thoughtful; I heard he even arranged a table right in the front row for us..."
Chen Feng barely listened to what was said after that, because he already had a pretty good idea of the general situation.
"What's wrong?"
Li Qingning stood up and asked.
"Hey! We can't go back. We've been tricked."
Upon hearing this, Li Qingning immediately became serious. "What do you mean? Who tricked you? Do you need help?"
"No need. Although I was tricked, it's a good thing. Goodness, they even used this kind of tactic. It seems I have no choice but to go to the Spring Festival Gala."
Seeing Li Qingning's puzzled look, Chen Feng briefly explained what had happened.
