Tomb Raider: Evolution of the Red Dragon, Starting from the Ancient City of Jingjue

Chapter 259 Qingxi Town, Youngest Sister

Yin Nanfeng nodded: "Of course it's true, why would I lie to you?"

Jiang Hua asked: "Then did you bring the imperial seal?"

Yin Nanfeng shook his head: "No, I can't bring it."

Jiang Hua was stunned: "What do you mean?"

Yin Nanfeng said: "Decades ago, the Zhang family established Qulou, which specialized in auctioning antiques and cultural relics. At that time, this Yin-Yang Jade Dragon Seal was auctioned at a huge auction and was acquired by my Xinyue Hotel. Later, my grandfather placed the Jade Dragon Seal in the forbidden area of ​​Xinyue Hotel. It is very difficult to enter.

Jiang Hua was speechless.

There are actually some forbidden areas.

Jiang Hua said: "What are the conditions for entering the forbidden area?
Yin Nanfeng said: "Become a member of my Xinyue Hotel!"

Jiang Hua's face looked a little unfriendly now.

Want him to become a member of the Crescent Hotel?
That's almost impossible.

Yin Nanfeng said: "You misunderstood my meaning. You have to become the son-in-law of my Xinyue Hotel and the husband of the current owner of Xinyue Hotel, that is, my husband. Only in this way can you be qualified to enter the forbidden ancient building. Otherwise, even I can't enter!"

Jiang Hua was stunned for a moment.

What the hell?

What a weird rule!
Jiang Hua looked strange, then looked at Yin Nanfeng: "Can you look at me?"

Yin Nanfeng suddenly smiled: "That depends on your performance!"

Jiang Hua smiled dumbly, shook his head slowly, and shrugged: "Forget it, I'll think of another way."

After hearing what Jiang Hua said, Yin Nanfeng became anxious on the spot: "Don't, how do you know if you don't try? Maybe it's very simple!"

Jiang Hua said: "I like things that are effortless."

Yin Nanfeng said angrily: "Why don't you say that I'm chasing you?"

Jiang Hua: "When a man chases a woman, it's like a mountain between them. When a woman chases a man, it's like she's breaking paper."

Yin Nanfeng: "What a mess!"

Jiang Hua left the box and said, "Since you are not sincere, let's stop talking here for now."

Yin Nanfeng said anxiously: "No, don't leave."

However, Jiang Hua was gone.

"You son of a bitch! You want me to chase you? Dream on!"

Yin Nanfeng sat on the berth with gritted teeth. After hesitating for a moment, he left the compartment reluctantly.

As for Jiang Hua, after he left the box, he found a hard seat and sat down, watching the passing scenery outside the window.

The train continued to travel west, and finally one day later, they arrived at the small county town of Wushan.

"Old man, how do we go now?"

After leaving the train station, Yin Nanfeng looked at Professor Sun.

Jiang Hua said: "Just find a place called Qingxi Town. The Dixian Village is in Qingxi Town."

"Qingxi Town? Great! Luo Que, take your people to ask the locals and find this Qingxi Town."

Yin Nanfeng ordered Luo Que.

"Yes, boss."

Luo Que nodded and prepared to set off.

However, Jiang Hua said, "Don't waste time. No one knows where Qingxi Town is. Even if you search the entire small county, you won't be able to find anyone who knows where Qingxi Town is."

Luo Que had fought with Jiang Hua once before and had great confidence in Jiang Hua's abilities. He chose to stop and look at Yin Nanfeng.

Yin Nanfeng couldn't help but ask: "Why is this?"

Jiang Hua said: "No reason, let's rest here tonight, and then go directly to Wushan. Find a grocery store called Honeycomb Coal, and you will find Qingxi Town."

Now, even Professor Sun looked at Jiang Hua in surprise and couldn't help but say, "You even know this!"

The others couldn't help but gasp, knowing that Jiang Hua was right.

So, the group settled down in the county town.

The next day, Jiang Hua and others got up early and went to Wushan.

Wushan is a very large mountain range, and the Dixian Village is hidden within it, but no one knows where it is. Even Jiang Hua only knows that the Dixian Village is in Qingxi Town.

But where is Qingxi Town?
He himself couldn't quite explain it.

After walking in the mountains and forests for a while, they finally came to a small town, and in this town, they saw a grocery store!

"Oh my god! There really is a grocery store like this!"

A waiter from the Crescent Hotel said in surprise.

Jiang Hua said nothing and led his men into the grocery store.

The first person I met was an old man. He was obviously a blacksmith. He was making iron clangs. When he heard someone coming in, he said calmly, "Take what you want and give the price you are satisfied with."

"This old man is quite interesting."

A waiter from the Crescent Hotel said.

Chen Wenjin said, "Old man, I'm here to ask for directions." But the old man said in a very arrogant tone, "I only sell things, not give directions. If you want to ask for directions, go somewhere else."

Chen Wenjin frowned and was about to speak, but Jiang Hua said, "Old shopkeeper, do you remember that someone asked you to customize a diamond umbrella decades ago?"

The old shopkeeper was working on ironwork. When he heard Jiang Hua's words, he paused and looked at Jiang Hua in surprise: "Who are you?"

Jiang Hua smiled calmly: "Don't worry about who I am, I'm here to find someone.

"Who are you looking for?"

Obviously, the old shopkeeper was frightened by Jiang Hua's words, so his tone became a little more serious.

Jiang Hua said: "Little sister."

"Youngest sister?"

The old shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, then asked: "What do you want to see her for?"

Jiang Hua said: "Because she is from Qingxi Town, I want her to take us to Qingxi Town."

Now, the old shopkeeper could no longer sit still and looked at Jiang Hua carefully.

Some of Jiang Hua's words really surprised the old shopkeeper.

This young man, who looked too young, not only knew that many years ago a tomb-raiding lieutenant had forged a diamond umbrella for him, but he also knew that Yaomei was from Qingxi Town!

Who is he?
The old shopkeeper whispered, "Who are you?"

Jiang Hua said: "I said, don't worry about who I am, you Fengwoshan do what you should do, I won't interfere with you, but don't stop me from finding the place I want to find."

At this moment, the old shopkeeper's face changed drastically.

I didn't expect that he knew everything about me, even though I was from Honeycomb Mountain! Especially with a smile on his face, he looked particularly mysterious! The old shopkeeper nodded: "Okay, I'll call the youngest sister out now."

So the old shopkeeper called out to the back, "Little sister."

Not long after, the youngest sister came in. She was a girl wearing ethnic minority clothes. She was very pretty and had a pair of lively eyes. After she came in, she asked curiously, "Why are there so many guests today?"

"Little sister, these distinguished guests are looking for Qingxi Town. Since you are from Qingxi Town, take them to find a way."

The old shopkeeper said.

The youngest sister stared at Jiang Hua curiously, "Qingxi Town? It has been gone for more than ten years. There is not even a regular road on this road. What are you looking for it for?

Jiang Hua took out a few banknotes and said, "I'm not going to do anything, I just want to take a look, can you lead the way?"

When the youngest sister saw so much money, her eyes widened. She quickly took the money and put it in her pocket, saying happily, "Of course! I'll take you to Qingxi Town right now!"

When the others heard this, they were overjoyed.

This little sister really knew where Qingxi Town was, and I finally felt relieved.

The best thing would be to have someone who knows how to get to Qingxi Town to lead the way.

Jiang Hua nodded: "Okay, let's go now."

The old shopkeeper said, "My dear, please take good care of my little sister. If possible, I hope you can take her out to see the world. I have some equipment here. Since you know about tomb raiders, you must need these things."

The old shopkeeper was an old blacksmith. He had made a lot of equipment for the tomb raiders in the past, including hidden arrows, darts, hand nails, flying tiger claws, and even things like the diamond umbrella.

After seeing it, Chen Wenjin couldn't help but sigh and said that there were indeed a lot of good things here.

It’s a pity that these things are of no use to Jiang Hua.

Jiang Hua said calmly: "These things of yours are of no use to me, and I personally have never thought of bringing anyone with me. I am only responsible for bringing Xiao Mei back safely. It's up to you who you want to take her out to see the world, and it has nothing to do with me."

Obviously, Jiang Hua knew that the old shopkeeper must have seen his extraordinaryness, so he wanted Jiang Hua to bring his youngest sister with him.

The old shopkeeper is in his seventies and probably won't live long, so he wants to entrust his youngest sister to Jiang Hua.

However, Jiang Hua didn’t have that much energy, so he refused without hesitation.

Upon hearing this, the old shopkeeper was a little disappointed. He could only say, "I am being rude. I don't know how long I can live. Take as much as you want from here."

So, the guys at the Xingyue Hotel picked out some handy equipment, and Chen Wenjin also picked up the Vajra Umbrella for protection.

Jiang Hua said nothing and left the grocery store with everyone.

The youngest sister followed behind everyone, looking back from time to time. When she saw the old shopkeeper at the door of the grocery store, she suddenly felt a little reluctant to leave.

Jiang Hua said, "Don't worry, we won't be away for long and will send you back soon. The old shopkeeper won't be in any danger either, so don't worry too much."

The youngest sister didn't expect Jiang Hua to see through her thoughts, so her face turned red, and then she asked: "Big brother, what should I call you? You look like the leader of the team."

Jiang Hua said: "My name is Jiang Hua."

Youngest sister: "Brother Jiang, you seem very powerful. I have never seen the old shopkeeper talk so much to someone. I know that he only talks to powerful people."

Jiang Hua said: "Don't ask these questions, take us to Wuchi Road quickly.

"Oh."

The youngest sister felt a little bored, but she quickly reacted and said in surprise: "Brother Jiang, how did you know we were going to Wuchi Road?"

The youngest sister knew that she was the only one in the entire town who knew how to get to Qingxi Town.

There are three ways to Qingxi Town: waterway, ancient road and Wuchi Road. Because it is summer, it often rains heavily. The water in the Yangtze River is turbulent, so it is not feasible to take the waterway. The ancient road has been damaged for a long time. There are cliffs everywhere, or all kinds of weeds and jungles, and it is impossible to find it.

There is only a five-foot plank road built during the Qin Dynasty leading to Qingxi Town.

This is also the only road leading to Qingxi Town now.

How did Jiang Hua know?
