After noticing some commotion in the next room, Yue Jiuzai and Yue Jiunian assumed that the people were leaving early. However, after they finished packing their things, they realized that it wasn't that they were leaving, but that they were fighting.
Yue Jiu Nian only found out what was going on when she peeked through the window. It turned out that the three of them were sharing a room, but they discovered that there were only two beds in the room, which led to the fight.
Under normal circumstances, they can sleep in a bed with two people and one person sleeps on the floor, or two people can squeeze into one bed and the other person sleeps alone, or they can push the beds together and sleep together as a trio.
But that wasn't how it turned out. Yue Jiu Nian only understood after secretly watching for a long time that Jiang Yan originally planned to sleep on the floor and give the beds to the other two people. However, the two of them had some personal conflicts and insisted on fighting over one of the beds, which led to the fight.
"Wow, how old are these two? Three or four? How can they fight like this?"
After learning that the commotion next door wasn't the reason they were leaving, Yue Jiu Nian went back and told Yue Jiu Zai what had happened: "My god, young people these days are so idle, they can start a fight over the smallest thing."
Yue Jiuzai listened with a complicated expression and said, "No way, I thought they were going to travel, but it's just a fight. Are they children? So childish."
"Never mind, I'm tired, I'll go to sleep..."
After Yue Jiu returned, she climbed back into bed and prepared to sleep. Before falling asleep, she joked, "Our bed is the best. There's only one big bed, so we don't have to fight over it and can sleep together."
Yue Jiuzai glanced at her and said, "That's hard to say. If your sleeping posture is really bad, I might kick you to sleep under the bed tonight."
The two people on this side were getting ready to sleep, but downstairs there were several people talking in hushed tones. These were also a group of grown men, and there were three of them in total.
A bearded man in his thirties said, "Guess what? They're probably leaving tomorrow, right? But I'm a little worried they'll find out."
Another elderly man, whose hair was half white, said, "So what if we find it? At worst, we can just snatch that baby boy and go into the mountains ourselves. As long as that baby boy is there, we will definitely be able to enter the tomb."
The last person also said, "That's right, it's not like they're the only ones who know the place. We just have to follow them because we don't have any manpower of our own."
These guys were actually "treasure hunters" themselves, and their purpose in coming here was also to "hunt for treasure." They had already been keeping an eye on Jiang Yan's group when they were at the restaurant, because they could tell at a glance that they were in the same line of work. And every "treasure hunter" comes to Q City for the same treasure, so they could guess where they were planning to "hunt for treasure."
However, if they were to go to that place, they would need to bring someone with them, a very important person, and that person was Jiang Yan. These men were all veterans, and they could tell at a glance that Jiang Yan wasn't one of them. But since he wasn't one of them and had come here with those people, he must be that important person.
So, these local 'ground rats' decided to follow those out-of-town 'ground rats' up the mountain to 'hunt for treasure'.
Jiang Yan was stunned when he saw the two guards fighting, because he had already prepared to sleep on the floor, but the two of them actually started fighting because they both wanted the bed by the window!
He watched the two people start fighting at the drop of a hat, not daring to intervene or take the opportunity to escape. He could only silently hug his pillow and hide in a corner, waiting for the two to finish fighting before he dared to go to sleep.
The next morning, Yue Jiu Nian got up early, and Yue Jiu Zai got up with her, because they had both heard the sound of the people next door coming downstairs.
"Hurry, don't go too far or it will be hard to find us."
Yue Jiu Nian brushed her teeth quickly and hurriedly went to change her clothes. Yue Jiu Zai also quickly stuffed things into her backpack. After going downstairs, she even ran to buy breakfast.
"Still eating? Didn't you buy a lot of things yesterday? Isn't it enough?"
As Yue Jiu Nian pulled Yue Jiu Zai to flag down a tricycle, she asked, "What are you buying? Lean meat porridge?"
"Yes, I saw it and bought a bowl. Let's eat together."
Because those people left in a tricycle, Yue Jiunian also flagged down a tricycle. She pointed to a tricycle a hundred meters ahead and said, "Master, please follow that vehicle. Our friends are on it too."
The tricycle driver understood, immediately started the vehicle, and nodded, saying, "Okay, you'd better sit tight!"
Seeing that her master had already driven off, Yue Jiu Nian took the lean meat porridge from Yue Jiu Zai's hand and drank it: "Hmm~ the taste is not bad, but the portion is a bit small."
The tricycle in front wasn't going very fast, but it wasn't going very slow either. It drove towards some remote areas, and it wasn't until half an hour later that Yue Jiu Nian saw the vehicle stop in a small village.
"We've arrived, driver. Please stop the car."
Seeing that everyone in front of her had gotten off the bus, Yue Jiu Nian also called for the bus to stop. She asked the driver the price and then paid him.
They were still some distance from the people in front of them, but they didn't dare to follow immediately. So they pretended to be people from the neighborhood and slowly walked past.
After getting off the bus, Jiang Yan saw the dilapidated little village and was terrified. He thought of the murders and body dumping scenes he'd seen on TV. If he were murdered and his body dumped here, no one would ever find it, because the village looked deserted. He wouldn't even have anyone to call for help.
