Judging by the time, Lord Yuheng should be back soon.
Ideally, the supplies could be transported before Yuheng Star returns.
If we're lucky...
Suddenly, the leader of the treasure-hunting gang spotted two figures.
There were two girls, one of whom looked like a cat, which immediately dispelled his drowsiness.
Yuheng Star is back!
Standing on high ground, the leader of the treasure-hunting gang looked to the other side.
One after another, the trucks loaded with supplies had already set off, but two of his men were still lingering in the inn, trying to find more of Boss Zhu's treasures.
"Fool, you idiot, you don't know your place!"
The leader of the treasure-hunting gang cursed angrily, then put his fingers to his lips and whistled.
Down the mountain, Keqing and Mona returned with ten Abyss Mages.
Ke Qing is in a good mood.
Right now, I'm calculating in my mind how many Mora to sell a Deep Abyss Mage for.
Five thousand?
Five of them would only cost 25,000 Mora, which, combined with my savings, would be enough to buy the Deluxe Emperor Clay Doll Set.
But if it doesn't sell for five thousand each, then it's a bit risky.
Just as I was thinking about Mora, a whistle suddenly rang out in the silent night sky.
Mona looked up in confusion: "What was that sound?"
"They're from the treasure-hunting gang!"
Ke Qing's expression turned serious.
As a Liyue native, Keqing has dealt with the Treasure Thieves quite a few times, so she is very familiar with this kind of whistle used to transmit information and give warnings.
The members of the Treasure Thieves are a mixed bunch, and they are widely distributed, making them a major "natural disaster" in Liyue.
These treasure-hunting gang members included idlers, those forced by poverty, and those who were desperate... in short, all sorts of people.
When Keqing encounters guys who have no way to make a living, she will teach them a lesson and then let them live.
Those who commit heinous crimes will be utterly eradicated.
In most cases, Keqing only targets monsters.
Treasure-stealing groups are human and are generally subject to legal punishment, or they are handed over to a woman who inspires fear in all of Liyue and even all of Teyvat.
Even the higher-ups in the treasure-hunting gang would treat that woman with respect and give her some face.
Respectfully address him as Your Majesty the Dragon King.
"A treasure-hunting group?"
Mona looked curiously towards the direction from which the whistle came: "When Tianheng Mountain collapsed, there were no treasures left. What are these guys doing here?"
It's so late at night, it's really worrying.
There are no ruins here. Back then, after Lord Yixiao Daotian used his immortal power to support the collapsing Tianheng Mountain, he barely managed to preserve Liyue Harbor as it is today.
The massive Tianheng Mountain did not collapse, Liyue was not affected by the disaster, and naturally there are no ruins.
"Damn it, they've got their eyes on our supplies!"
Ke Qing's expression changed.
They hurried towards the inn.
Upon arriving at the inn's entrance, they saw the Thousand Rock Army soldiers on duty lying on the ground, fast asleep, while the area behind them where supplies had been stored was now empty.
Three figures were running in another direction.
"stop!"
With a flash of lightning, the thunder wedge streaked across the night sky in a streak of purple light.
In the blink of an eye, Ke Qing appeared in front of the three members of the treasure-hunting group, the box in her hand glowing with purple light crackling with dragon sounds.
"Hand over the supplies, and we'll spare your lives."
Ke Qing's expression was cold as she looked at the three members of the treasure-hunting group with hostility.
"Lord Yuheng, please let me explain..."
The leader of the treasure-hunting gang trembled and quickly spoke with a fawning expression and tone: "Lord Yuheng, the brothers are just too hungry, and we haven't had any luck lately..."
As he spoke, he cursed the two nagging guys to the eighteenth generation in his heart.
"So you've set your sights on me?"
Ke Qing snorted coldly: "You've got some nerve. Enough with the nonsense, where are the supplies?"
"Hehe, it's like this, Lord Yuheng, please hear me out..."
The leader of the treasure-hunting gang suppressed his unease and took a few steps forward.
The three of them were ordinary people, and they were terrified when the lightning sword was pointed at them.
If you try to run, you naturally can't outrun Keqing, who has the Eye of God.
"Lord Yuheng, please calm down. This is a small token of my appreciation. Please take a look..."
Carrying a large bag, the leader of the treasure-hunting gang opened the bag, and a fragrant aroma wafted out.
That smell?
When it floated over, Keqing was a little confused, but the next moment—
"Ugh... This is... Golden Shrimp Balls!"
"My favorite... my most hated dish is shredded shrimp balls..."
In an instant, Keqing broke down!
Recalling the ingredients used in the golden shrimp balls that Xiangling had served her last time, Keqing felt her stomach churn, her face turned pale, and all her energy vanished!
The longsword in his hand could no longer be pointed.
"Good opportunity, retreat!"
At the same time, the leader of the treasure-hunting gang, his eyes gleaming with elation, winked at his two subordinates.
Then, the three of them took out the escape talismans they usually used when encountering powerful enemies and flung them out.
Bang bang bang!
The three people disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Mona strolled over leisurely, only to find Keqing leaning against the wall, pale-faced and vomiting incessantly.
"Huh, what's wrong?"
Sniff...
"It smells so good, this is... golden shrimp balls?"
"Are they here to bring you a late-night snack?"
Chapter 90 Intercepting
Ke Qing vomited for a long time before she finally sat down to rest, feeling weak and powerless.
Ever since she was tricked by Xiangling's slime shrimp balls last time, she has felt nauseous whenever she sees any ingredients related to shrimp balls.
Fortunately, Keqing knows how to make this dish herself. Currently, she buys shrimp and other ingredients and makes it by hand.
As for the other finished products... they are all slime shrimp balls.
Mona ran over, picked up the small bag containing the golden shrimp balls, and sniffed it.
"Hmm...not bad, it's Wanmintang's Golden Shrimp Balls again~"
I was feeling a bit hungry when delicious food was delivered to my door. What a stroke of luck!
Mona didn't rush to eat; she gently pointed her finger into the air to create a water dish.
Ke Qing looked over, her face pale, and asked in surprise, "What are you doing?"
"After all, these are from an unknown source, how can we just eat them? I need to use a divination to see if these golden shrimp balls are clean, hygienic, and free of poison..."
Mona replied seriously, while pointing at the water slab.
This is the secret of divination, which is unknown to most people.
"Are you really going to eat this?"
Ke Qing felt a chill run down her spine: "This...this was brought here by the Treasure Thieves, you...never mind..."
Nothing to say.
It's impossible to understand Mona from the perspective of a normal person.
Compared to what people often say, Mona is more confident in her divination skills.
"Hmm... It was made at 7 PM... The chef is Xiangling... The ingredients are fine... The packaging is fine... They didn't eat any... Hmm..."
After some divination, Mona picked up a golden shrimp ball and swallowed it in one gulp.
Hmm...it tastes really good.
It's such a pity that Keqing can't eat such delicious food.
Sitting next to Keqing, Mona devoured a golden shrimp ball while asking, "Did those guys escape? Hmm... By the way, what about your supplies?"
Supplies!
Ke Qing was startled!
He jumped up immediately, realizing he had forgotten something so important!
Wait, besides supplies, there seems to be something else very important!
