Tomb raiding: Those who achieve immortality all have tattoos.

Chen Yan had already taken off his goggles, took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and quickened his pace, soon disappearing from the road he had come in on.

But he wasn't in a hurry to find the rainforest; he still needed to catch someone.

So there's no rush to go to the Queen Mother of the West's Palace first.

As for who to arrest?

Huh~

Of course, it's Wu Sansheng's old flame, Chen Wenjing.

Not long after Chen Yan left, A Ning led people and Wu Xie into the Devil City.

After hesitating for a moment, Xie Yuchen still decided to hire Hei Xiazi to find Wu Sansheng first.

He always felt that Chen Yan was going to do something, so he went to Wu Sansheng first, hoping to find out something from him.

After Ah Ning and Wu Xie found the sunken ship and let everyone in, they discovered that Hei Xiazi and Xie Yuchen had left in the middle of the night.

Furthermore, Wang Yueban and Pan Zi took Zhang Qiling away.

Only A Ning's partner and Ding Zhuo Ma remained.

While the Corpse Beetle King was flying around and the crew members were either dead or fleeing for their lives, Chen Wenjing took advantage of the chaos and secretly left the group.

They planned to sneak into the rainforest ahead of time and follow behind Wu Xie and the others.

But as soon as she left Dingzhu Zhuoma, Chen Yan blocked her way.

Chen Yan put one hand in his pocket, looked at Chen Wenjing with a half-smile, and said, "Some people in the underworld say that you are the old man's adopted daughter."

"I've always been curious. Before I met the old man, I thought he had abandoned you."

"I'm only just realizing that you're nothing like an old man."

This resemblance, of course, does not refer to physical appearance, but rather to personality.

Chen Wenjing looked at Chen Yan warily and asked, "What do you want to do?"

Chen Yan smiled and said, "I'd like to invite you somewhere to chat."

Chen Wenjing drew the dagger from his waist and looked at Chen Yan: "What if I say no?"

"Then run!"

A mocking smile slowly crept onto Chen Yan's lips: "As long as you can escape."

A fierce glint flashed in Chen Wenjing's eyes, but he did not rush forward. Instead, he turned around and prepared to run away.

but.

"Bang!"

A faint sound rang out, and Chen Wenjing abruptly stopped, his pupils shrinking as he looked at the ground beneath his feet where a bullet hole had appeared.

Chen Wenjing looked around in a panic, then turned to Chen Yan: "You didn't come alone!"

Chen Yan clicked his tongue and said, "Does it matter?"

Chen Wenjing's expression changed as he looked at Chen Yan: "Chen Yan, I have no connection with the Chen family. I belong to the Northern School, and I have no connection with the Nine Gates either..."

"Really?"

Chen Yan grinned and asked gently, "If my information is correct, after Zhang Qishan's surprise attack on Banna failed, the collective tomb raiding activity organized by the higher-ups for the Nine Gates also failed."

"In the time that followed, because the second generation had not yet grown up, and the first generation of the Nine Gates suffered heavy losses at the same time, so..."

Chen Yan slowly walked towards Chen Wenjing: "After consideration, the higher-ups have launched a civilian organization."

"For example, you, a person from the Northern school."

"You led the funeral procession in Banna."

"But you suffered heavy losses that time, so things quieted down after that."

"But you, the team leader, haven't been punished at all."

"Until the second generation of the Nine Gates was put into use, you became a member of the archaeological team again. And when Wu Sansheng led you and Huo Ling to Changbai Mountain, you secretly shook off the others and took Huo Ling back to the Xisha archaeological team."

"Afterwards, Wu Sansheng stuffed a corpse beetle pill into his mouth and sent him to the Golmud Sanatorium."

"Could it be that the information I received was incorrect?"

Chen Yan stood three steps away from Chen Wenjing, looking at her with a mocking look in his eyes: "I'd really like to know, back then, Zhang Qishan was spared punishment because of his status as a member of the Zhang family, and because he was still useful."

"And you, a mere leader of the Northern faction, what gives you the right?"

Chen Wenjing's face was pale as he looked at Chen Yan in disbelief: "All of this, Chen Pi told you?"

Chen Yan gently bit the tip of his tongue, looked at Chen Wenjing, and said, "I'm very curious about what happened to you, so you should come with my men."

Upon hearing this, a flicker of despair crossed Chen Wenjing's eyes, and he murmured, "I don't have time..."

"Don't worry, my people will get what I want to know before you become a banshee."

As he spoke, Chen Yan raised his right hand and made a gesture in the air. Immediately, two men rushed out from the shadows and pounced on Chen Wenjing.

Chen Wenjing panicked and tried to run away, but how could he possibly outrun these people?

He was knocked unconscious and carried away.

A waiter walked up to Chen Yan: "Brother Yan."

"Didn't I tell you to hide at the very back? What are you following me for?"

The waiter lowered his head and said, "Ninth Brother was worried about you, so he sent me with two men to accompany you."

Chen Yan sighed: "Alright, take them away. Did you hear what I just said?"

"Yes, don't worry, I promise I'll uncover everything that happened to her before she becomes a 'forbidden woman'."

After saying that, Chen Yan waved his hand, and the waiter turned and left.

Chen Yan glanced at a high point where a sniper was lying prone.

Turning around and leaving, Chen Yan felt he could go to the Queen Mother of the West's Palace.

But whether Chen Yan was just unlucky or Wu Xie and A Ning were just incredibly lucky, they met.

"Chen Yan!"

"Master Chen?"

Chen Yan sighed inwardly; trouble was brewing.

Sure enough, when I turned around, I saw two people who were exhausted and about to collapse.

Wu Xie looked at Chen Yan with eyes full of surprise: "Chen Yan, Brother Yan! Help..."

As he spoke, Wu Xie's vision went black, and he collapsed to the ground.

Ah Ning swallowed hard and said, "Patriarch Chen, please save me. I can give you money."

Chen Yan glanced at Wu Xie, then at A Ning, and said thoughtfully, "What's in it for me? I'm not short of money."

Looking at Chen Yan, A Ning knew he wasn't joking and was evaluating whether saving the person was worth his effort.

So Ah Ning forced herself to say, "Name your conditions, as long as I'm alive..."

"Bang."

Before she could finish speaking, Ah Ning collapsed.

Chen Yan was taken aback. Are you two acting against me?

With such poor physical condition, how dare you come to fight in the desert?

Chen Yan walked forward in disbelief, first checking on A Ning to confirm that she was really unconscious, then looking at Wu Xie, who was also really unconscious.

A look of speechlessness crossed Chen Yan's face.

The next second, Chen Yan suddenly raised his head and looked at the sky not far away.

Damn it, the Corpse Beetle King is here!

Without saying a word, Chen Yan slashed open A Ning's palm with a knife. Don't ask why he didn't slash Wu Xie's.
