Soon, the tent was set up, adding a special charm to the desert.
Lin Qiye sat quietly in the corner, wiping the black gold ancient knife in his hand.
This precious sword never leaves his side, as if it has become a part of his body.
"Nanaye, try this."
Yang Mi came over with a bowl in her hand.
The bowl contained the soup she had cooked herself, which exuded an enticing aroma.
"Thank you."
Lin Qiye took it with a smile, took a sip, and his eyes lit up.
"It tastes good. Your cooking skills have improved a lot."
He praised sincerely.
Hearing this, Yang Mi blushed and said coquettishly: "What's the point of cooking? I cooked it for you anyway."
As she spoke, she sat down next to Lin Qiye with their shoulders pressed tightly together.
"Qiye, what are you thinking about? I was stunned by your thoughtful look just now."
She giggled and winked slyly.
But Lin Qiye just smiled and didn't respond.
Yang Mi was relentless and reached out to pinch his face: "Don't pretend, I know you are thinking about your next move. But now is a good time to rest, don't think about those things."
Her fingers lingered on Lin Qiye's face, and the itchy feeling made him tremble involuntarily.
"Sister Mi, this is in public, what are you saying?"
Lin Qiye felt a little embarrassed and quickly pushed her hand away.
This woman is becoming more and more bold.
"Tsk, tomboy."
From the tent on the other side, Liu Tianxian's dissatisfied murmurs were heard.
She hid behind the curtain, silently watching the interaction between the two, with a hint of loneliness in her eyes.
"If you don't punish me for three days, I will tear the tiles off the roof. You little girl, you dare to snatch my person away?"
This tone is clearly filled with jealousy.
So she walked over and sat down on the other side of Lin Qiye.
"Qiye, do you think the medicinal soup I made can help your injury?"
She asked casually, her eyes full of concern.
Lin Qiye was stunned and quickly thanked her: "Yes, of course. Thanks to Fairy Liu's medicine, my injury healed so quickly."
"That's good." Liu Tianxian smiled and glanced at Yang Mi from the corner of her eye, looking like she was sure of victory.
"Oh my god, the medicine is not as effective as my tonic soup!"
Seeing this, Yang Mi was not willing to be outdone, so she simply took Lin Qiye's arm and pulled him towards her.
[Hahaha, Sister Mi is so jealous, I can smell the sourness!]
[That's right, look how Liu the Fairy is greedy, now she's also going to make trouble!]
[Damn, these two girls are too fierce, right? Flirting with Inspector Lin in front of so many people is really bad!]
[That’s right! If it were me, I would have lost control a long time ago! No matter if she is Sister Mi or a fairy, I will hug her and kiss her!]
[Go away, go away. How can you compare to my imperial bearing?]
[Tsk, what are you bragging about? If I really let you go, you will definitely be slapped away!]
[Bah! If I had the skills of Inspector Lin, I could take these two girls in in a minute! Then I can hug them left and right and make others envious!]
[Haha, you are amazing! With your appearance, you don't even look down on the wild flowers on the roadside! You should just go to bed!]
For a period of time, there were endless opportunities, making the atmosphere particularly lively.
Lin Qiye, on his side, was in a dilemma.
Judging from the situation, these two ancestors are determined to fall out with each other.
"Ahem, ladies, it's getting late. We have to travel tomorrow, so why don't you all rest early?"
He smiled awkwardly to smooth things over, then quickly stood up and walked out of the tent.
"Tsk, that's boring."
Yang Mi pouted in dissatisfaction, but did not insist.
Liu Tianxian gave Lin Qiye a meaningful look and returned to his tent silently. "Tsk tsk, I didn't expect that a tomb raider is actually an emotional idiot."
Wu Jing came over at some point and patted Lin Qiye's shoulder with a teasing look on his face.
"What can we do? Who says we are gentlemen?"
Lin Qiye sighed and spread his hands helplessly.
But there was a hint of bitterness in my heart.
Neither of these two women are easy to deal with.
The most urgent task at the moment is to find the western ruins as soon as possible and unravel the thousand-year-old mystery.
Thinking of this, Lin Qiye said.
"Come on, everyone, go to bed early. Get enough rest, because we still have to climb mountains and cross rivers tomorrow!"
Just like that, it was a night without words.
The next morning, the sun was rising.
Lin Qiye stood up first and told everyone to pack their bags.
"Set off!"
Following an order, the team set out on the journey again.
The West is just ahead!
Along the way, Lin Qiye looked at the mysterious picture of the dragon and tiger from time to time and compared it with the terrain in front of him.
Gradually, a hidden valley came into view.
"This is it!"
Lin Qiye's eyes lit up and he quickened his pace.
Sure enough, there was a stone sculpture on each side of the valley entrance.
Although it is a bit fancy, if you look closely, you can still recognize the shapes of the Qilin and the white tiger!
"A beast with a human face, a sign of good fortune!"
An couldn't help but marvel at it and praised sincerely: "This carving is really ingenious. Ancestor Yueying is indeed a master craftsman. He can carve such a charming figure on the stone!"
Lin Qiye nodded.
He had seen a similar statue last time in Qidingyuan.
The Qilin leads the way and the White Tiger protects us. It seems that this should be the place we are looking for.
Thinking of this, he felt relieved.
"Let's go into the valley!"
Before he finished speaking, his figure had already rushed into the valley like lightning.
Others followed closely behind, surprised and delighted.
[Oh my god! I finally found the ruins of the Western Frontier! My heart is pounding!]
[That’s right! This trip was extremely difficult. I didn’t expect that the master would guess it right at the last minute! He is indeed a tomb raider!]
[But to be honest, why do I feel that things are not that simple? Are there something wrong with those two stone sculptures?]
[Tsk, you're scaremongering again! We're already at the door, what else could go wrong? Forget it, just follow Inspector Lin!]
[That’s right! Besides, we have Grandpa An to protect us. It’s just a formation and a mechanism. Isn’t it easy to capture it?]
[Haha, you guys are just too naive! I think there will be more storms in the future. Don’t run away when the time comes!]
[Bullshit! I've never been afraid! If we really fight, I'll teach those monsters a lesson in a minute!]
The audience was talking one after another, full of curiosity and worry about the secret that was about to be revealed.
The valley is deep and the forests are lush.
However, there was an indescribable atmosphere in the air.
Eerie, weird and chilling.
"Be careful!"
An suddenly reminded him with a serious look on his face. It was the first time he set foot on the land of his homeland. He was excited but also cautious.
Lin Qiye understood and quickly slowed down his pace.
"Everyone should be vigilant and don't be careless."
He looked around and murmured, "There's something weird about this place. I feel like it was deliberately arranged by someone."
Before he could finish, something strange happened!
A rustling sound suddenly arose and echoed in the depths of the dense forest.
Immediately afterwards, countless black shadows whizzed past, as fast as lightning!
"Oh no, what the hell is that!" Cheng Long exclaimed. (End of this chapter)
