Chapter 82 Danger Was Approaching Again (1/2)
Long Xi listened with fascination. She did not expect that the people in this cabin were related to the treasures of the ancient Dian Kingdom.
One of her ten dreams was to hope that she could participate in treasure hunt adventure once at least in her lifetime. She liked this stimulating and mentally absorbing activity the most!
Tangze Shoutai took a few breaths and said, ”The three families living in the wooden house are the descendants of several guardians. They came here to live in seclusion, perhaps because they want to avoid disturbing from treasure hunters at home and aboard.”
”Well, since you have confessed all, we won't bother you. However, don't tell others about our encounter after you return to the United States, because we don't want to get into trouble,” said Mo Kun.
Hearing Mo Kun's words, Tangze Shoutai nodded like pecking.
Mo Kun asked, ”I think you should drive here. Where did you park the car? We'll send you to the hospital, and you'll handle with the other things.”
Tang Zeshou bowed repeatedly and said with gratitude, ”Thank you! Thank you! We have three off-road vehicles. Peter should have already driven one. The remaining two are still hidden in the forest. They are camouflaged with branches and leaves. I'll take you there.”
Xiaolu reached out and was about to hold up Tangze Shoutai. A middle-aged man suddenly came out of the cabin in the east and held a pistol in his hand. He said loudly, ”Don't let him go!”
Long Xi was taken aback again. ”Hasn't Lord Mo Kun just checked that there is no one in the house? Where does this person come from? Is there a secret chamber, a concealed compartment, a tunnel, or a cellar in the house?”
She took Xingyue Knife from her backpack and unsheathed, asking, ”Who are you?”
The man was about thirty-seven and eighty years old. He was a big man with heavy eyebrows. He had a slightly sullen look and a strong body. He looked a bit like actor Li Chen.
He wore the clothes of a certain Chinese minority group like Mongolian traditional costume.
”Li Chen” said without haste, ”My name is Niu Xi, and I bear no malice against you. To show my sincerity, I put my pistol away.”
He put his pistol in his gun case around his waist, and spread his hands, indicating that he was unarmed.
Mo Kun did not drop his guard as he said, ”Except you, how many people are there? Ask them all to come out. Don't sneak around.”
”Hoho, what a tone! Knock out the people from Fusang. I don't want him to know too much!” Niu Er said with a smile.
Mo Kun extended his big hand with five fingers straightened and closed together. He patted on Tangze Shoutai's head forcibly, and Tangze Shoutai was immediately overpowered by dizziness.
Then, a young and beautiful woman came out from behind Niu Xi. She was slightly fat but looked gorgeous like a peony. She had a deep dimple on her right cheek, which was like a cup full of intoxicating wine. She could be called a slightly fat goddess.
Her inky long hair was combed into an ancient hairpin, inserted slantly with a flying phoenix step shake, wearing a gorgeous old-fashioned dress.
Long Xi liked fashion design, so she had specially studied women's dresses of different dynasties. Thus, she could see at a glance that the young woman wore the dress of the Ming Dynasty. God, what was this?
Niu Xi saw the beautiful young woman coming out, and respectfully called her ”princess”. He stepped back and stood behind the beautiful young woman.
What? Princess? Could it be that the Princess of the Ming Dynasty traveled into this era? Or are these two people playing a role-playing game?
The beautiful young woman was both dignified and graceful like a peony, but revealed an approachable smile. She said kindly, ”Children, you are just passing by, and it's not good for you to know too much. You'd better leave quickly!”
Niu Xi sighed and said, ”We have also dealt with these mercenaries for several times. They are ruthless and savage, so you can't let him go. He will definitely go back on his words and kill you all.”
Mo Kun thought for a moment and said, ”You also make sense. So, we'll leave him to you for disposal. We're not interested in knowing the rivalry between you, as long as we won’t get involved!”
Niu Xi nodded and said, ”Well, please give him to us. We won't let him escape. You'd better hurriedly leave this place! To be honest, if it is not because of the teachings of the deceased, I don't want to get involved!”
”Princess” said, ”Ma Donger's mother Yu Xiaotu just called us outside the house, asking us to adopt Dong'er. At that time we were hiding in the cellar, we neither dare to come out nor answer her.”
Niu Xi said, ”Yu Xiaotu said that she would go out to work. It would be inconvenient to take Dong'er. In fact, we all know what Yu Xiaotu is like. While her husband's remains were scarcely cold yet, she had dated with a widower in the same village. Now, she just wants to get rid of Dong'er.”
Long Xi said angrily, ”This woman is too heartless! How can she do this to her own daughter?”
Niu Xicheng said sincerely, ”Donger's ancestors and my ancestors are friends. Dong'er's father Ma Ming is my sworn brother. If you don't believe, you can look at Dong'er's backpack. There is a blood letter that we set up. We have the responsibility to take care of our old friend's daughter. If you believe in us, leave Dong'er. She was born differently from other children, she may be happier when she lives here!”
Inexplicably, Long Xi thought that Niu Xi was reliable.
Long Xi searched Dong'er's backpack and she really found a blood letter. It said that on a certain date, Niu Xi and Ma Ming became sworn brothers. They asked not the same day of birth, but they sought to die together. Below were the signatures of different handwritings, one was from Niu Xi, one was from Ma Ming, and another was from a witness Lai Shu.
