Chapter 386 Familiar Eyes
"It's not a coincidence, is it? We suspect this tomb robbery was done by an alien. We must investigate everything related to the alien world. This is part of our job, please forgive me."
"Oh, I see."
Zhang Hailou nodded. He suspected that the other party was coming for the Qilin blood, but he had no evidence.
Xu Si wondered why the Zhang family, a large family with a thousand-year-old heritage, hadn't acknowledged Zhang Chulan long ago, waiting until now. He also suspected they were after the source of the Qi, but he had no evidence either.
The two parties with information asymmetry are both very wary of each other, and only rely on Xu Si and Zhang Hailou, two seemingly extroverted but actually cautious smiling tigers, to maintain superficial peace.
The "little tomb robber" who came to steal the corpse was obviously not an expert and did not even have any anti-detection awareness.
Just as Xu San discovered the extremely obvious series of women's shoe prints, Zhang Hailou found traces of zombies that were more than a dozen years old and deduced that the tomb robbers knew how to control corpses.
There are also broken hairs hooked from tree branches, lollipop sticks thrown next to the coffin and other evidences. It is very easy to find the little tomb robber.
Two men named Zhang, who had also been involved in tomb robbing, shook their heads in their hearts and pointed fingers from a professional perspective.
The Zhang family now actually has a method similar to the corpse-controlling technique, and they are quite proficient in it.
Zhang Hailou and the other man both looked down upon the guy who used the corpse-controlling technique.
It would be fine if he summoned the corpses from the nearby tombs to dig them out, and then let them lie back down on their own after using them. This operation was also reasonable, but he was wrong not to do any secondary processing on these corpses that were forced to rise from the dead.
After a corpse is transformed into a zombie, it will not turn back into a corpse. What if these little zombies jump out and bite innocent people?
The four of them had only been here for a while when the corpses that had been transformed into zombies started to rise again on their own.
On Xu San and Xu Si's side, one used his supernatural power to attack from a distance, and the other fought in close combat. They were serious and coordinated very well.
On the other side of the two little Zhangs, Zhang Hailou retreated immediately and cheered for Zhang Haixia with great confidence.
Zhang Haixia rolled his eyes at him, took out a dagger from his waist, rushed forward and swung it a few times with quick and decisive movements.
Xu San, Xu Si and the others had just started to exert their strength, but he had already easily eliminated all these primary zombies.
Each zombie was decapitated with a single blow after its spine was severed, highlighting the professional handling required.
After confirming that there are no other unexpected situations around, once the information from both parties is integrated, there is no need for further verification and the culprit can be identified immediately.
"Not many people know how to control corpses. I heard a few days ago that Liu Yanyan from the Xiangxi Liu family ran away from home. Could it be that stupid girl?"
Xu Si stroked his chin, glanced at the two people named Zhang next to him, and spoke tentatively.
"We are familiar with the Liu family in Xiangxi. Why don't you let us handle this matter?"
Xu Si didn't have to take on the job from the Zhang family. The main reason was that robbing the tombs of other family members was a bit serious for an old-fashioned and traditional family. He was afraid that the Zhang family would take a tough approach and directly find Liu Yanyan and kill her on the spot.
If the matter is left to them, they can act as peacemakers and do the Liu family a favor.
He also had some understanding of that girl. She was stubborn, simple-minded, lively, and rebellious, but she had no bad intentions and her crime did not deserve the death penalty.
Zhang Hailou pretended not to hear what he said, put his arm around Zhang Haixia's shoulder, and walked towards the car with him, speaking vaguely as he walked.
"Oh, it's almost dinner time. I'm starving. Let's go back first. See you later."
What bad intentions could Zhang Hailou have? He just wanted the two men to investigate first, so he could find an excuse to get something for free.
When passing by Xu San and Xu Si's car, they both saw the little girl leaning on the car window, pouting and staring at them with her big dark eyes.
Zhang Hailou smiled and waved at the little girl, and also played with his hair in a very coquettish way, which made Zhang Haixia pull him off her and push him aside in disgust.
Feng Baobao, who had been sitting obediently in her seat, stared at the two of them expressionlessly, without saying a word or making any other movements. She just watched them get into their own car.
Zhang Haixia felt the gaze on him, frowned and turned to look back, then met Feng Baobao's clear and emotionless eyes.
Just as he was about to start the car, his hand paused. Zhang Haixia inexplicably saw the shadow of his family head in those eyes.
"Is there something wrong with that little girl?"
Zhang Haixia turned around and asked Zhang Hailou in a low voice.
"What's the problem? I heard one of them call her baby. She must be the younger sister that the other two brought out to play."
Zhang Hailou said this casually, then turned his head to look over and observed carefully. The smile on the corner of his mouth gradually disappeared, replaced by a serious expression.
"You're right, that girl is most likely an immortal too. Wait, I'll go test her."
Putting aside other things, just looking at that look, Zhang Hailou felt that it was exactly the same look as the patriarch he had seen before.
At that time, the Zhang family elder had not appeared yet. When he ventured to meet the clan leader, the other party's eyes were filled with strangeness and vigilance, emptiness, and a hint of divinity due to emotional indifference.
"Control your anger and don't scare the little girl."
Zhang Haixia reminded him expressionlessly, then took out a few candies from his pocket and handed them to him.
Zhang Hailou took the candy, looked at Zhang Haixia in surprise, and subconsciously teased him.
"Xia Zi, you are getting younger and younger. You even have candy in your pocket."
"Mr. Ben Ling brought me to his side to teach me earlier, and he gave me this candy."
Zhang Haixia felt very complicated when he thought about how Zhang Benling would give a handful of candy to his younger relatives every time he met them, regardless of their age.
Although I know that he needs more sugar because his brain is exhausted from fortune-telling every day, he also really likes to eat sugar.
He not only likes to eat candy, but also other desserts. In order not to appear to be unique, he will also share desserts with other people in the secretariat.
Their group headquarters has almost become a major consumer of nearby dessert shops. A few days ago, Mr. Zhang Benchu was ordering desserts from them every day.
Zhang Hailou thought of the best student in the family and was instantly speechless.
Career-mindedness is truly terrifying. Fortunately, I was smart enough to pretend to be stupid and incompetent in time, and escaped from the sea of suffering early.
"Okay, I'll go take a look."
