Chapter 216 Treasure with Long Legs, To Trade or Not?
Ji Xinghan immediately used a modified version of "sound location identification".
[Ji Wenqiao's current coordinates: xxx, xxx, should we track her?]
Ji Xinghan quickly stuffed the drowsy little Dingdang into his backpack, and then picked up Wangzai, who was wearing a cotton-padded coat.
Wangzai shifted his body: "What?"
Ji Xinghan roughly rubbed its head, which had only one surviving hair: "What can you do? Go work! You think you can just freeload here?"
Want Want: "Woof woof?"
Should we begin tracking now?
"yes!"
[Immediately teleport to within 100 meters of Ji Wenqiao, 3, 2, 1...]
With a "whoosh," Ji Xinghan arrived in the vast snowfield.
Everything here is white, surrounded by small snow-covered hills, as well as rocks and trees buried thickly in snow.
With a soft rustling sound, a large clump of snow fell, landing right on Wangzai's head in Ji Xinghan's arms.
Wangzai, covered in snow, roared angrily, "Woof woof, who's so mean? I'll bite you to death..."
As soon as it looked up, its voice stopped abruptly, its body stiffened, and it froze.
Ji Xinghan noticed that the warm and cozy Wangzai had suddenly become much colder, and its body was shivering.
We have entered a state of alert.
Huh?
She looked up.
Above them was a tree, all its leaves had fallen, and on a branch about three or four meters high sat a little girl with snow-white skin and an icy expression.
The little girl was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and skirt, revealing her snow-white arms and legs.
At this moment, her calves dangled down, and she wore a pair of sandals that exposed her toes, looking down at them.
His face was cold and lifeless, devoid of any warmth.
Baoyuan!
Ji Xinghan recognized her immediately.
Now, she can tell Yuanbao and Baoyuan apart just by feeling. This cold and unafraid-of-cold demeanor is undoubtedly Baoyuan.
What is she doing here?
"Woo woo~" Wangzai whimpered softly twice. Ji Xinghan noticed that it was trembling even more violently. Its eyes were still glaring fiercely at Baoyuan. It would glare once, then shrink back, then glare again, then shrink back again.
I've almost shrunk myself away!
Bao Yuan held a small, black box in one hand and a roasted chicken leg in the other. He took a couple of slow bites and suddenly spoke up: "Dog, give it to me!"
"Woof woof!" Wangzai got anxious and turned to burrow into Ji Xinghan's arms.
Ji Xinghan asked in surprise, "What do you need a dog for?"
After finishing the chicken leg, Bao Yuan casually tossed the chicken bone aside and said succinctly, "It's cold, stew it with dog meat!"
ah?
Ji Xinghan looked down at Wangzai in his arms. He had to admit, it was plump and tender. Eating a pot of dog meat in the freezing cold would be quite nice.
cough!
Of course, she couldn't give away Want Want. Want Want was indeed a bit of a troublemaker, but it had helped her a lot.
Besides, how could you eat such an adorable puppy?
She thought for a moment and said, "How about we eat mutton?"
Bao Yuan immediately refused: "No, I've already eaten!"
Ji Xinghan: "Beef?"
Bao Yuan: "No, I've already eaten!"
Ji Xinghan was quite willing to grant Bao Yuan's request, after all, he was an NPC. She rummaged through her storage backpack: "Then, pork? Chicken?"
Bao Yuan: "No, I've already eaten!"
She stared intently at Wangzai: "It's never eaten before!"
Then, she handed over the small box she was holding: "Here, I'll trade with you!"
Ji Xinghan understood. Bao Yuan had probably eaten mutton, beef, pork, and so on, but had never eaten dog meat before, so he wanted to give it a try.
Moreover, she was willing to trade it for a small suitcase!
Ji Xinghan stared intently at the small box. It was much smaller than a regular box, jet black in color, and seemed to have raised or recessed patterns, but there was nothing particularly special about it.
There must be something precious inside, and she wants it!
However, she couldn't exchange it for Want Want milk.
She hesitated for only a moment, and Bao Yuan's expression changed. He stood up and said, "I have something to do, I'll be going now. Bye!"
With a "whoosh," she vanished from the tree, and the remaining snow on the tree rustled down.
Ji Xinghan was taken aback. Why was Bao Yuan leaving in such a hurry?
She secretly regretted not knowing what was inside the small box; she wished she could have taken it.
She looked down at Wangzai, and thought, "What a pity, what a pity!"
Wangzai whimpered twice and pleaded, "Woof woof, thank you, little master. You're a good person. They said you're a good person and let me follow you. I made the right choice. Woof woof woof, good person, good person, little master!"
Ji Xinghan: ...
Let's scare it to death!
She should go find Ji Wenqiao first, instead of wasting time.
She looked around, but all she could see was a vast expanse of nothingness.
This teleportation only covers a range of 100 meters. She needs to search in all four directions. Since it's so close, it should be easy to find Ji Wenqiao.
Ji Xinghan put the dog down on the ground and said, "I'll walk forward, you walk backward. Call me when you see someone, quick!"
Doraemon was also released, so Ji Wenqiao could be found in just a few minutes.
Wangzai and Xiaodingdang immediately ran out.
Ji Xinghan walked forward, and after only two minutes, she found messy footprints. After walking for another two minutes, she saw even more footprints, and then she saw a deep pit.
The large pit was clearly newly dug; it was about five or six meters in diameter and seven or eight meters deep.
As she was watching, Wangzai and Xiaodingdang returned, but they didn't find anyone nearby.
Ji Xinghan looked around the large pit, counted the footprints, and estimated that there were about four people nearby: two women and two men.
It must be Ji Wenqiao and her gang!
They dug this deep pit, and then left?
Ji Xinghan frowned. What's going on?
She just arrived and they've already left?
You found treasure? That easy? You just dug a hole and found treasure, without even a trace of a battle?
Something's not right!
Ji Xinghan was very anxious. He and Wangzai Xiaodingdang split up to search and expanded the search area. They searched the entire vicinity and found the route that Ji Wenqiao and the others had taken. However, it was obvious that those people had left in the deep pit.
They left suddenly!
Ji Xinghan's heart sank.
She messaged Zhou Xinyao privately, and within minutes Zhou Xinyao replied: "Ji Wenqiao just went to the vicinity of Line 23. A member of the gang pulled them in. She also asked someone to keep it a secret, but before that, she was in a hurry to find people near Line 23, and quite a few people in the gang knew about it."
Ji Wenqiao hurriedly went to the vicinity of Line 23.
Ji Xinghan recalled for a moment, "Line 23... that place is quite far away."
If Ji Wenqiao had found the treasure, she shouldn't have been traveling around anymore.
Did she not find the treasure, and it was moved again?
It should be!
Strange, this treasure doesn't have legs, so how does it run around everywhere?
Ji Xinghan replied, "Thank you!"
[Ji Wenqiao's current coordinates: xxx, xxx! Track now?]
The coordinates are very far away. Now, Ji Xinghan is almost certain that Ji Wenqiao is definitely continuing her treasure hunt.
That treasure has been moved again!
She picked up Dingdang and Wangzai: "Yes!"
With a "whoosh," she arrived at another patch of snow.
The snowfield was uneven, with low mountain peaks in the distance and scattered stones of various sizes nearby.
Ji Xinghan glanced at the surroundings, then put Wangzai and Xiaodingdang down and said, "Just like before, split up and act quickly!"
This time, she has to be quick!
"Huh?" a voice came from behind.
Ji Xinghan looked up and saw a familiar face on a large rock not far away—Bao Yuan.
Bao Yuan sat on a rock, resting her chin on her hand and holding a small box, seemingly lost in thought. When she saw Ji Xinghan approaching, her eyes immediately fell on Wangzai, and she asked, "Want to switch?"
"Woof woof!" Wangzai jumped in fright and shrank back. "Woof woof woof, woof woof woof, no trade, no trade, we won't trade!"
"Oh!" Bao Yuan was disappointed.
She stood up, clutching the small box: "I have something to do..."
Ji Xinghan was getting anxious. Bao Yuan was about to run away again. Actually, she wanted to exchange it. She wanted to discuss whether to exchange it or not first, just in case there were other ways to trade.
How could the items an NPC has be bad?
She quickly said, "Wait!"
