Chapter 193 Rushing
After they finished speaking, Zhou Xisuo said in disbelief, "You ate so much before entering the valley?"
Someone said with a bitter face, "The dim sum at that shop is really delicious. We didn't expect it to be like this."
"No, I can't hold it anymore." Senior Brother He was the first to rush behind a big rock.
The others also rushed over to find a place.
Seeing them like this, Zhou Xisuo's face almost turned purple.
He raised his voice with a sullen face: "Forget it, let's split up. You guys take a good rest, and we'll go ahead."
Xu Zhiruo felt that this was inappropriate, but the leader of their team was Zhou Xisuo.
As soon as Zhou Xisuo and the others left, the conditions of those people immediately recovered.
Senior Brother He came out from behind the big rock, looked at them, and whispered, "Don't betray me."
One of them chuckled twice and said, "Don't worry, Senior Brother He, we will make money together and face difficulties together."
The other person snorted and said, "How difficult can it be? If you don't tell me, I don't tell you, and no one tells you, then no one will know."
Senior Brother He sighed deeply, "If Junior Brother Zhou hadn't been so pedantic in this regard, we wouldn't be in this situation."
They nodded in agreement. "That's right. I heard that other teams would keep some of their resources for their own use, but Junior Brother Zhou insisted on asking us to hand them all over, saying we'd redistribute them later. Well, after all this talk, we can't compare to others, so we naturally have to think about ourselves."
Senior Brother He continued, "How about this? You guys go find the treasure, and I'll secretly follow Junior Brother Zhou to prevent them from revealing their secrets. If they find any treasure, I'll get a share. How about that?"
The men exchanged glances and responded with a smile, "Of course, no problem. Thank you for your hard work, Senior Brother He."
"No, no, it's you who are the ones who have worked hard."
Senior Brother He said this, and then casually said, "What a pity for Senior Uncle Xu. He is a cultivator in the opening stage, and he should have found a lot of things."
Those people were stunned for a moment, rolled their eyes, and then sighed, "Yeah, what a pity."
After saying goodbye to them, he chased in the direction of Zhou Xisuo.
The remaining few people looked at each other and walked towards the direction of the corpse tacitly.
Little did he know that Senior Brother He was smiling when he turned around.
These people come from the side branches of a big family, but they are not taken seriously. Some of them, like Zhou Xisuo, are aloof and arrogant, and naturally there are also people who are profit-driven and are the easiest to exploit.
Tao Zi sat silently on the tree. Just when Li Xiu couldn't help but want to speak, a person appeared in his sight. He was wearing the clothes of Minglan Sect and his face was covered with cloth, so his appearance could not be seen.
He kept looking around and looked extremely wretched.
Tao Zi took off his cloak and jumped down wearing a mask.
The man was startled, but quickly reacted and asked tentatively, "Who are you?"
She said in a male voice, "Liu Yue sent you."
The declarative tone put his mind at ease, and he took out a small mirror from his sleeve, on which an image of mountains and flowing water appeared.
Tao Zi took note of the scenery of that place.
He whispered, "We can't find the exact location, we only found the sight."
"It's okay, thank you for your hard work."
"You are too polite, sir," the man continued. "The girl said that some people rebelled during that period, and another sir was arrested. It is possible that some of the methods of transmitting information have been leaked. Therefore, I erased the information left by the sir."
Tao Zi curled her lips and praised: "Not bad."
He bowed, and she continued, "I'll talk to the young lady about this when I get back. You just stay here and relax."
He responded respectfully, "Understood."
After he left, Tao Zi immediately left the place.
During this process, the little fox and Li Xiu were so quiet that it seemed as if they didn't exist.
After changing to another place, Li Xiu blurted out: "Sister Tao, once you're sister, you're sister for life!"
Tao Zi glanced at him and said, "My brother doesn't talk much."
He responded very quickly: "Of course! What brother would talk a lot? A brother like me is not only quiet, but also has no ears."
The little fox squatted aside and said leisurely: "Anyway, I don't know anything, and I won't meddle in the affairs of the human race."
They watched Tao Zi draw a simple diagram on the ground.
"This is?"
"Guess where this is in the valley?"
They looked at it and shook their heads, "I don't know. This is our first time here."
Tao Zi looked up at the sky and fell into deep thought. Neither the man nor the fox disturbed him.
Not long after, she stood up, pointed in a direction, and said, "Go that way."
The little fox asked doubtfully, "Are you sure?"
She erased the painting and said slowly, "Judging from the direction of the water, the shadows cast by the trees, and their abundance, it can only be over there."
The two of them immediately understood. Li Xiu sighed, "I also caught a glimpse of that scene. It was so small. It's a good thing you remembered it."
Tao Zi didn't reply and hurried over with them.
The little fox looked at their hurried steps and said, "I haven't asked you yet, what exactly are you going to do?"
Tao Zi confidently said two words: "Robbery."
The little fox was silent for a moment, then said, "Your tone is so matter-of-fact, I don't know what to say."
Li Xiu joked, "How can this be called robbery? It's clearly treasure hunting."
The little fox asked doubtfully, "Has the treasure been discovered? Has the news spread?"
Tao Zi calmly explained, "No, I just found some people. They were also coming for the spiritual plant, and they were well-informed. It would be a good idea to follow them."
When Li Xiu saw the mountain appear in the mirror, he suddenly asked, "From taking action to delivering the message, was this all planned by you?"
Tao Zi glanced at him slightly and said, "The decision to take action was made on the spur of the moment, and passing on the message was just a casual attempt."
He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good."
She asked, "Why do you say that?"
The little fox on the side said quietly, "You didn't tell him about such an important plan in advance. He feels that you don't treat him as one of your own, and he's depressed."
Tao Zi was speechless.
Li Xiu scratched his head and said, "Not entirely. You were mainly worried that my coming here would affect your plans. Now that I know it was a last-minute decision, I feel relieved."
She smiled and said, "Some things are hard to say."
She must never speak out things that involve her vital points unless it is necessary, even though Li Xiu has already vaguely guessed some of it.
Tao Zi looked at the mountain in front of him, stopped, and said, "Let's put on human skin masks. We're too conspicuous like this."
The man and the fox nodded.
Li Xiu patted the fox's head and said, "You don't have to."
