Treasure Hunt Memo

Chapter 9 I'm Your Girlfriend
When I woke up again, I was already lying on a hospital bed with a drip on my left hand.I can't remember at all how I got out of the grave and how I got to the hospital.

"Brother Li, you're finally awake!" A Fei who was at the side saw me awake, so excited that he burst into tears.

"A Fei, what's going on here? How did we get out? I can't remember anything." Looking around, there was no one on the other hospital beds. I tapped my head with my right hand, only to find that my right hand There is also a thick white cloth wrapped around it.

Ah Fei cried for a while before he calmed down and began to tell me about the situation at that time.

It turned out that in the main tomb that day, after hearing that strange whining sound, Ah Fei was so frightened that his legs went limp. I dragged him and ran out of the main tomb, but I passed out when I ran to the front room.

Then Ah Fei carried me on his back and continued to walk out, just groping all the way, from Dead Man Bao to Huya Peak, and then down Huya Peak.

Fortunately, I met a few villagers at the foot of the mountain, and when they helped us back to the village, it was already dark, so A Fei took me back to the village chief's house first.

I was unconscious at that time, and there was a big black blood bag on my right hand.

Later, the village chief heard that I was stung by a scorpion on Huya Peak, so he went to invite the old fortune-teller in the west chamber. Unexpectedly, the man was an old Chinese doctor, and he felt my pulse for me. A few needles were stuck in my arm, and then I made a small opening on my finger, and the black blood flowed out along the fingertip. Then he sprinkled some powder on the back of my hand and wrapped it in a white cloth.

Later, Ah Fei was still worried about my situation, so he asked the village chief for help, and someone sent us to the hospital in this town overnight.

After listening to Ah Fei’s story, I actually had mixed feelings in my heart. Although what he said was unremarkable, how he walked on the road from the tomb to the foot of Huya Peak behind my back, the difficulties and hardships, I really can't imagine.

"Thank you, A Fei." I said softly.

"Thank you brothers, do you remember what I told you before we set off, if anything happens, I will carry you out." A Fei patted his chest and said, signaling me that he did it.

"Fuck you, you didn't say that at the time, did you? You said you were carrying it in front." Ah Fei's words directly amused me, and suddenly I thought of something, and hurriedly asked: "Then our things..."

He posted it and said quietly: "Your bag is too heavy. I threw it in the tomb. I carried my bag on my back, so all the contents of the bag came out. And that jade bag Bi, I put it on my body."

After hearing what A Fei said, I immediately felt relieved.

My bag is mostly gear supplies, nothing important.The important documents were all in the small bag, which was left at the village chief's house before departure, and was brought to the hospital by A Fei at the moment.And the things we touched in the tomb before are basically packed in A Fei, as long as his bag is still there, then this trip is not in vain.Thinking of this, I reached into my pocket and found that the dragon-shaped jade pendant and jade huang that I found in the coffin were still on my body.

I took out my phone and checked the time, it was nine o'clock in the morning.

"Hungry, I'm going to buy something to eat." Ah Fei saw that it was already nine o'clock, and I just woke up, so I was going to go out to buy some breakfast.

"Okay, then I'll squint for a while." I was still buzzing in my head at the moment, seeing Ah Fei walking out, I simply closed my eyes again.

But after a while, I heard the sound of pushing the door again.

"Why are you back?" I opened my eyes and looked.

I thought it was Ah Fei who came back, but the one who opened the door and came in was a sweet and lovely girl who looked only in her early twenties.On the delicate face, a pair of clear and bright big eyes looked around, and the red lips were slightly pursed, with a slight smile.She was wearing a white down jacket on her upper body and black tights on her lower body. She walked in the door and looked around, then walked straight to my bed.

After Ah Fei left, there was no one else in this ward except me. Did she come to see me?
"Are you awake?" Before I could speak, she greeted me.The voice sounded very gentle, and the tone of the speech seemed to be chatting with an old friend, but I really can't recall when I met this beautiful woman in front of me.

Seeing me stunned, her expression suddenly became very aggrieved, and the next sentence almost made me spit out old blood, "Why don't you even remember me, I'm your girlfriend?"

What the hell, the last time I fell in love was when I was in my sophomore year. When did a girlfriend suddenly appear, and I hurriedly said, "That... miss, did you recognize the wrong person? I don't have a girlfriend."

Seeing that I denied it so quickly, she covered her mouth with a poof and laughed.I'm a little confused, but I have to say...she's really pretty.

"So you don't have amnesia, let's get to know each other, my name is Ye Xinran." She said, and stretched out a slender hand to me.

At this moment, I felt hatred in my heart. I had an IV in my left hand and a white cloth in my right hand. I missed this opportunity! After hesitating for two-thirds of a second, I still stretched out my right hand and shook her lightly.

"My name is Huang Li."

She looked at me with a smile, and suddenly handed over a note. I took a look, and there was a string of numbers on it.

"Handsome guy, this is my WeChat, remember to add me." After she finished speaking, she turned around and was about to leave. Before pushing the door, she turned around and gestured for me to shoot, and said, "Don't forget Ha!"

This sudden appearance really made me confused, I really don't know who this Ye Xinran who appeared suddenly is?
Although I'm not ugly, I can't even say that I'm handsome, not to mention that after yesterday's ordeal, I'm already disheveled and wounded. If it is this posture that attracts such an outstanding girl I don't believe it even if I strike up a conversation.

Then what is the purpose of her adding me?

It doesn't matter, it's just adding a WeChat, and it can't be done.So I searched and added friends according to the number she gave, but I didn't expect that she agreed in seconds as soon as I sent the application.

Her profile picture is a selfie of her. I subconsciously entered her circle of friends and found that there were also some selfies and sharing in different places. She seemed to be a girl who likes to travel very much.

"Hello, handsome guy, I'm Ye Xinran."

"Interested in talking?"

She sent two messages directly.

"Hello, what are you talking about?"

I also replied to her.

"How about talking about adventures?"

Seeing this sentence, I immediately became vigilant. What does she mean by this? Does she know my recent itinerary?

"What adventure, I don't understand what you mean."

"Don't be nervous, I'm not here to catch you, in fact, we are kindred spirits."

Like-minded people?I didn't understand whether she was testing or what, and I didn't know how to reply her for a while.

Seeing that I hadn't sent a message for a long time, she sent another sentence.

"How's the injury on your right hand?"

"It's all right." I thought she was asking about the injury to my right hand when she just shook hands, but I didn't expect her next sentence to stun me.

"Hmm, if Grandpa hadn't detoxified you from the poison of the Fragrant Corpse Scorpion, you would have been cold by now."

Seeing this sentence, I understood that this Ye Xinran should be the granddaughter of the old fortune-teller in the village head's family.The fragrant corpse poisonous scorpions she mentioned should be the giant scorpions that A Fei and I met in the main tomb.

It's just that I didn't expect that old man to be so powerful. Just by looking at my wound, he knew what poison was caused, and even knew how to break it.

"So you are the granddaughter of the fortune teller."

"Actually, he is my master, but I always call him Grandpa. He is amazing, he knows everything from ancient times to modern times."

Looking at her reply, I thought of the same-minded person she mentioned just now. Could it be that the fortune teller is also a tomb robber?

Is his purpose of staying at the village chief's house the same as the two of us?
If this is the case, then Ye Xinran should have been instructed by the old man to find me. Could it be that his purpose is to let us hand over the things we brought out of the tomb?
I vaguely feel that things are not that simple. If he really just wants what we brought out, there should be better opportunities and methods instead of letting this apprentice contact me.

"So why did you come to me?"

"Grandpa wants to cooperate with you."

"Cooperation?"

"Yes, he wants you to show us the way."

"Where to go?"

"Go to the place where you found the leash on your left hand."

Her answer was beyond my expectation. I thought she would say go to the tomb you went to yesterday, although the two statements refer to the same place.But obviously, their focus is on my left hand.

But how did they find out?

I recalled A Fei's narration just now, thinking that it should have been noticed by the old fortune teller when I was in a coma last night when he felt my pulse.

Until now, I don’t understand what the whining sound from the tomb was at the end, and I don’t know whether everything I experienced in the end was an illusion after I fell into a coma, or what happened in real life, and there were a bunch of deadly animals. Scorpion, when I think of this, I still shudder.

"What's in it for me?"

"I can give you a big chance."

"Can you be more realistic? Anyone can say such a cliché." Looking at her answer, I was really speechless for a while.

"When the time comes, you will have a share of the good things."

"Isn't this a matter of course? I can think about it with some sincerity."

"Then what do you want?"

Looking at her reply, I don't know what I want.

In fact, since she said cooperation, my heart has been shaken.

I always feel that their real purpose should not be the tomb of King Qi Xiao. From what Ye Xinran said, it can be seen that their focus is on Lezi, and the secret behind this Lezi itself is beyond my comprehension.If they really hold some important clues, they might be able to unravel the secret behind Le Zi.

But in the face of such a good opportunity, adhering to the principle of earning a little more is a little bit, I definitely can't easily agree to them.

Just as I was thinking about what to ask for, another message came from her.

"I'm your girlfriend, are you satisfied with my sincerity?"
