Chapter 27 Baby / Danger

This time, right after Qian Xiaolan and Wenxuan finished their transaction, the system prompted an increase of 100 points of gratitude. Qian Xiaolan paused for a moment, and immediately understood. This was because the system had been restored to level two, and its response had become faster. The reason why it was so slow last time was probably because, as it said, its energy was exhausted and it went into sleep, so it became sluggish.

Although it is still not awake, it no longer affects some of its basic default operations. Qian Xiaolan clicked on the gratitude value column, and saw: Total gratitude value: 300/1200. Below the number was a horizontal bar like the game experience value, with a small number 2 on the bar. Well, this means level two.

Qian Xiaolan was very interested in the newly added detection function. She used it once in her own yard after leaving the space. She chose one-click detection, regardless of whether it was valuable or not, dead or alive, it was all done within ten seconds. Then, she looked at what was displayed on the panel and fell silent. Tree roots, grass roots, soil, stones, this is normal.

 Scrap metal, animal bones, there’s nothing wrong with that. But why does that long, dark thing have to be displayed to her? Ugh, how unlucky! Immediately, Qian Xiaolan stopped abruptly. No! This thing is too dense, and the arrangement is too neat. Qian Xiaolan immediately entered the space and opened the “Introduction to Tomb Knowledge” given by Xu Wanting. Sure enough! These things are all in a burial pit. So, there is likely to be a large tomb on the back of the mountain.

She closed the book, ate a self-heating rice meal, and went into the mountains. After using the detection function fifteen times, Qian Xiaolan finally figured out the exact location of the large tomb. It almost covers the entire mountain. If it’s too big to dig and cause a stir, she doesn’t plan to make it public.

After happily returning home, she entered the space and counted the treasures she had bought with 150 points of gratitude. Twenty large boxes, filled with antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and gold and silver jewelry. Six small boxes scattered around, containing some jewelry and silver dollars. She also found one hundred yuan under a large banyan tree. It must have been someone’s hidden money. She didn’t take it. What also made her happy was that she found many precious herbs on this treasure hunt in the mountains.

The system is really convenient after it’s restored to level two, it’s directly one-click picking, it saves her the trouble, she can just lie flat. Just in time, the orders for Old Master Rongqian and the others arrived these days, so Qian Xiaolan packed many precious herbs and went to the mule shed. Rongqian was overjoyed to see those herbs. “There are so many treasures in the mountains. Lanlan, let’s process these herbs first, and when Mom returns to the city, we’ll send you the money after we exchange it.” In recent years, many people have been sent down, and their bodies are all weak, so they are in need of these herbs now. Qian Xiaolan shook her head with a smile: “Mom, don’t sell these herbs, keep them for you to replenish your bodies. Especially Grandpa, Grandpa, and Grandma Xu, Grandpa Sheng, they are getting old, they must be well nourished.

 You and brother also need to replenish, otherwise you will suffer when you get old. And Dad, you said he should be coming out soon, he has been doing experiments for many years, his body must not be good either.” Yes, her father is still alive, and he is a scientist. He is not gone as she thought. Old Master and the others are not actually forced to be sent down, they just dislike the too many demons and ghosts in the city, so they choose to come here to have peace of mind. Qian Xiaolan’s filial piety touched everyone. Rongqian’s eyes turned red again, and she hugged Qian Xiaolan and wouldn’t let go. “Lanlan, thank you, thank you for not hating Mom.”

 While Qian Xiaolan’s family was warm and loving, ten miles away from them, in the border jungle, a desperate fight was taking place. A team of people wearing camouflage uniforms were running left and right in the jungle, turning around to fire a shot from time to time. The sound of gunfire from the counterattack and the sound of gunfire from the pursuers behind them merged into one. Seeing that the enemy was getting closer and closer, everyone was a little anxious. “We can’t go on like this, if the enemy catches up, we’ll all be finished!” “Wang Chao, you take the wounded and go, I’ll hold them off!” “Captain, you take the wounded and go, I’ll hold them off!” Wang Chao disagreed. The other wounded said at the same time: “You all go, don’t worry about us!”

 Gu Yanqing glared at them with a stern face: “This is an order! All of you go now!” The whole team’s eyes turned red, they trembled their lips and saluted, then turned and ran. Seeing them run away, Gu Yanqing quickly erased his tracks and ran in the opposite direction. They were unlucky this time, they had only received a tip from an informant that someone had stolen important intelligence and was going to be sent out of the country in the next two days. But they had only intercepted the intelligence when they were surrounded by a large force.

“Hurry up, they ran that way!” The enemy’s voice was getting closer. For the safety of his comrades, Gu Yanqing dared not stop, but he dared not run too fast either. He trailed the enemy for two hours, neither too far nor too close, until Gu Yanqing’s strength gradually gave out. He looked at the enemy behind him who was even more tired than him, rubbed his index finger, and narrowed his eyes coldly. But just as he reached for his backpack, a roar came from above his head.

 Gu Yanqing jumped up suddenly and climbed to the top of the dense tree in three or two steps. “Damn it! These people dare to openly enter the country to provoke! Do they think our Great Xia Kingdom has no one?” Seeing that it was a helicopter from the neighboring country, Gu Yanqing’s eyes flashed with anger, he no longer hid, jumped down from the tree, holding the last two grenades and charged towards the enemy. “I’m here, you dogs come on! If you have the guts, blow me up!”
