Tomb Raider: Call Me Dragon Vein Cleaner

Chapter 331 The Actions of the Mute in the South and the Blind in the North

In the evening, Ah Xiang, exhausted after a busy day, returned home.

Since she became capable of handling things on her own, her three sisters-in-law gradually began to hand over their power to her.

Although controlling the massive force of the Unloading Ridge Sect is incredibly prestigious, it comes with immense responsibility.

But even under immense pressure, Ah Xiang found it all worthwhile.

Because of her experiences in the first half of her life, her desire for power was greater than that of Cheng Feng and Chen Wenjin.

So this can be considered a case of Zhou Yu beating Huang Gai, one willing to hit and the other willing to be hit.

As soon as Ah Xiang entered the house today, she discovered that there was a beautiful little sister in the house. After Huo Ling introduced her, she learned that this was Huo Ling's sister-in-law's niece.

"Xiuxiu, this is your uncle's sister. You can call her Auntie or Little Auntie."

Huo Ling held Ah Xiang's hand and said to Huo Xiuxiu.

Huo Xiuxiu looked at the young woman in front of her, who wasn't much older than herself, and smiled.

"Hello, Auntie, my name is Huo Xiuxiu, it's nice to meet you!"

"Hello Xiuxiu, I take my older brother's surname, Cheng. Your aunts and the others usually call me Axiang."

If there are no conflicts, friendships between women can develop very quickly.

When Cheng Feng came downstairs, he saw Ah Xiang and Huo Xiuxiu chatting happily.

They were all real relatives, and Ah Xiang didn't put on airs like she was the person in charge of the Unloading Ridge. At home, she was just an ordinary girl.

After a hearty dinner, the whole family sat in the living room chatting.

Huo Ling asked what had happened at home after she left, and Huo Xiuxiu answered her questions one by one.

After all, older people tend to report good news and not bad news, so when Huo Xiangu contacted Huo Ling, she rarely mentioned any troubles her family had encountered.

After they finished chatting about everyday things, Huo Xiuxiu remembered the story Cheng Feng had only told halfway through.

Fearing she wouldn't be able to sleep at night, Huo Xiuxiu quickly started urging for more updates.

Cheng Feng, however, ruthlessly pushed the storytelling task onto Chen Wenjin and Huo Ling, both of whom had personally experienced it.

It makes no difference if you tell him yourself.

As a doting mother, Huo Ling immediately patted her proud chest and began to tell her about her experiences at the tomb of the Prince of Xian.

The women chatted until late, and before going upstairs to sleep, Cheng Feng called out to A Xiang.

No matter how well she hid it, Cheng Feng could still see the weariness in her eyes.

"Take a good rest during this time. With those elite disciples of the Unloading Ridge sect holding things up, there won't be any problems."

It just so happens that your sisters-in-law are taking Xiuxiu out to play tomorrow, you can come along and relax too.

Faced with Cheng Feng's earnest persuasion, Ah Xiang lowered her head and obediently agreed.

The next day,

Cheng Feng declined the girls' invitation to go out together and stayed home alone, petting Xiao Hua's tiger head while waiting for Zhang Qiling and Hei Xiazi.

Around 8:30, the mute and the blind arrived at Cheng Feng's house in the same car.

Since their trip to the Snake Swamp Demon Realm, the two have become quite close, and their personalities have surprisingly gotten along well.

After settling down in the living room, Hei Xiazi, with his hands resting on the back of the sofa and sitting askew, said:

"Boss, it's only been a short time, and there's already another big move?"

Zhang Qiling sat quietly to one side, his eyes occasionally glancing at the cigarette pack Cheng Feng had placed on the coffee table.

Don't let Zhang Qiling's usual dull and wooden demeanor fool you; he's a heavy smoker, and his addiction is even worse than Cheng Feng's.

Picking up the cigarette case, Cheng Feng took out two cigarettes and tossed them to them.

Cheng Feng spoke only after lighting all the cigarettes:

"This time I went to the capital to help the Huo family handle a case of burning a corpse..."

Cheng Feng explained the cause and course of events to the two, stating that to truly eliminate the evil, they needed to rely on the Thunder-Listening Artifact of Thunder City.

When Zhang Qiling heard Cheng Feng mention that this evil object was related to the ultimate truth, he seemed to remember something.

Then he immediately nodded and said:

"Okay, when do we set off?"

Black Bear said helplessly:

"We haven't even figured out the exact location yet, where are we headed?"

Cheng Feng nodded in agreement with Hei Xiazi's words. Dumb Zhang started getting agitated as soon as he heard "ultimate"—he needed to change that habit.

Otherwise, you'll be easily taken advantage of.

"I know some information about Thunder City, but not enough details, so you need to go to a few places to get a map of Thunder City before you set off."

Half an hour later, Hei Xiazi and Zhang Qiling drove away together.

One of them went to Changsha, while the other returned to the city and contacted intelligence agencies throughout the country.

If you were to ask who in this world knows Lei City and the King of the South Sea best, the answer would undoubtedly be Wu Sansheng.

Wu Sansheng had been to Leicheng many years ago, and left behind two large pits along the way.

In the timeline without Cheng Feng's intervention, these two major pitfalls led to the deaths of the mute girl who deeply loved Hei Xiazi and the girlfriend of another fat man.

If it weren't for the protagonist's halo, the Wu family might have been torn apart.

Therefore, the most direct way to find Thunder City is through Wu Sansheng, with the cooperation of the Unloading Ridge faction, plus the pursuit of Hei Xiazi and Zhang Qiling.

Wu Sansheng will definitely be found, unless he digs a hole somewhere and buries himself.

While Hei Xiazi and Zhang Qiling were busy, Cheng Feng was not idle either. He led a group of beautiful women to camp in the Hoh Xil Nature Reserve.

Hoh Xil was designated a nature reserve in 1995.

Then, just one year later, Hoh Xil was approved as a provincial-level nature reserve.

A year later, Hoh Xil was upgraded again, becoming one of my country's national nature reserves.

Armed personnel are stationed here year-round to guard against increasingly rampant poachers.

As one of the most outstanding middle-aged men in Golmud, Cheng Feng specifically assigned this dangerous mission to a disciple of the Unloading Ridge sect.

They constantly hone the marksmanship and wilderness survival skills of the Xieling disciples by risking the lives of poachers.

So for Cheng Feng, Kekexili was practically his backyard; he had become the privileged person he hated most in his previous life.

While Cheng Feng was camping in the beautiful natural world, Hei Xiazi also found Wu Sansheng's whereabouts based on information sent back from all over the country.

After confirming the authenticity of the information, Hei Xiazi personally set off for Guangxi to find Wu Sansheng.

On Zhang Qiling's side, after arriving in Changsha, he found Wu Erbai and told him directly that Cheng Feng had sent him to find the map of Leicheng.

Wu Erbai is a smart man; he wouldn't choose to antagonize Cheng Feng without harming the Wu family's interests.

So Zhang Qiling made some gains.

That day, he went to an abandoned weather station and found the information that Wu Sansheng had deliberately left behind.

With these two men under his command, Cheng Feng had no psychological burden while playing; he could simply wait for them to bring back good news.

If even they combined couldn't handle it, then Cheng Feng should suspect that the two of them had been switched out.
