"Other reasons?"
I didn't understand what Xiaoye meant at first, but after thinking about it carefully, I guess she was referring to the girl with short hair.
Could it be that I am bringing a girl with short hair to my hometown now, so I don’t want her to come with me?
Thinking of this, I immediately said: "No, no, there is no other reason. I just think it is too dangerous, and your life is on the right track now. If you follow us again, won't you go backwards as you live?" "
"But, what if I think that following you all over the world to rob tombs is the right way for me to get my life back on track?"
Xiaoye asked me this question, and I didn’t know how to answer it.
After thinking for a moment, I asked her: "Did you suddenly want to come? Or have you thought about it before?"
Xiao Ye replied: "I have thought about it before. When I found my dad, if my dad didn't want me to rob the tomb, I would definitely choose to follow you. Even if it was to open a coffee shop, it was just an ordinary part of a boring life. It's just a choice, and I'm trying to use opening a coffee shop to let me give up some of the things I care about. I also hope to live what I think is a normal life, but now I find that I can't."
Hearing Xiaoye say this, my heartbeat accelerated.
Although she said it very tactfully, to me, it was also very direct.
In this case, I don't really have much to say. I just said: "Then if you have already made a decision, I won't say anything more. And I welcome you, but your dad will probably be very happy." Be angry."
Xiaoye said: "I believe he will understand me, just like himself. I want him not to go all over the world to find these weird things, and I want him to come back and live with me honestly. He is different." What can’t be done? I even understand him somewhat now.”
I glanced at Zhao Hu and the others, then walked away.
Then I asked in a low voice: "Then let me ask you, if I wash my hands of Jinpen and stop touching Tangzi in the future, will you still be willing to live such a wandering life?"
I was actually asking her tentatively.
She just wanted to rob the tomb.
I really like the wandering life.
Or is it just because you want to be with me.
Of course, I have an answer in my heart, and it must be because of me. If I say that I will stop robbing tombs and go to Beijing to live a normal life with her, she will definitely agree happily.
Sure enough, after I asked this question, Xiaoye became silent on the other end.
I didn’t want Xiaoye to be too embarrassed, so I ended the topic at this time. I said, “Okay, let’s talk about it when you come. As for your dad, just go and talk to him, but your dad If he calls me to ask about my situation, I will definitely tell him that I still hope you can return to Beijing."
"Well, I'll go talk to my dad."
After saying that, she hurriedly asked me: "Do you really have no objection to me going to find you? If so or if you find it inconvenient, then I will..."
I immediately interrupted her: "No, absolutely not. I am definitely very happy that you are here, and Sister Yuan Zhao Hu and the others will also be happy too."
"Okay, then I'll go to the station tomorrow."
"Well, remember to tell us when you get in the car, and keep in touch with us on the way. Let us know when you will arrive, and we will pick you up then."
"good."
Because I thought of Jianzui, this guy didn’t come to our hometown with Zhao Hu and the others after following them to Beijing last time, so I then asked Xiaoye if Jianzui was coming, and Xiaoye said that Jianzui had already returned to his hometown. , I don’t know if he will come, but she will call and ask.
After hanging up the phone after talking to Xiaoye, my heart became even heavier.
Because I know that Xiaoye's arrival will definitely produce some "chemical effects" between me and the short-haired girl.
To be honest, all I'm thinking about now is repaying the short-haired girl's debt, and I don't want to think too much about other things. But if Xiaoye comes, a lot of things unrelated to tomb robbing will definitely happen, and this will really affect me.
But I couldn't help it. I couldn't refuse Xiaoye, and I didn't want to refuse her.
"Why do you have such a sad face?" Zhao Hu said with a bad smile at this time: "Xiaoye is coming, you should be happy. Originally there was only one woman around you, but now there are two, why don't you look like this? Are you happy?"
I said I was not unhappy, but I thought there might be a lot of trouble in the future.
Sister Yuan on the side immediately said unhappily: "Even if there is trouble, it is the one with more trouble. Is Xiaoye a troubled person?"
While speaking, Sister Yuan also pointed with her chin towards the room of the girl with short hair next door, meaning that girls with short hair have many things to do.
I smiled bitterly and said, "It's not that one of them has more things to do and the other has less to do, but they will get into trouble if they are together."
Zhao Hu was still making fun of Sister Yuan at this time. He said: "Sister Yuan, I think you should join in. If there are three women surrounding him, wouldn't it be more troublesome?"
Sister Yuan snorted: "I've always been around him. It's a pity that Jianjun doesn't like me very much. It's because I'm old and no longer attractive."
"Why not? I like you very much, Sister Yuan. Why don't you stop hanging around him? You hang around me..."
"Go, go, I despise you!"
Maybe she was afraid that I would show no welcome after Xiaoye came, so Sister Yuan reminded me at this time: "By the way, Jianjun, if Xiaoye comes, you must not show that you are worried or unhappy. , Xiaoye’s mind is quite sensitive, if you are just a little bit..."
I immediately smiled and said, "Sister Yuan, what are you talking about? Would I do that to Xiaoye? Absolutely not."
Sister Yuan said that would be fine.
At this time, Zhao Hu looked at Xiaozizi on the side and asked in a very strange tone: "You Xiaozizi, are you happy that Ren Xiaoye is here?"
After Xiaozi put down the word "boring", he turned around and walked outside.
"No, what do you mean by being boring? Are you happy or unhappy? Stop pretending to be serious with me."
After Xiaozizi left, Zhao Hu asked Sister Yuan and I: "Do you two think that Xiaozizi has really let go of Xiaoye? Sometimes I think he is pretending to be indifferent, but he actually still cares about her, right?"
Sister Yuan nodded: "I think it should be."
"What about you?" Zhao Hu looked at me again.
I glanced at him and said, "You are in charge of other people's affairs. Take care of yourself first. The boss is not a junior and he has a wife. He knows how to play around in a day."
"I……"
"What are you, did I say something wrong?"
Zhao Hu waved his hand: "I won't tell you anymore. I'm going to take a bath in the bathing center."
With that said, Zhao Hu got up and walked outside. As he walked, he asked Sister Yuan: "Are there any new girls in Zhang Qingshan's bathing center recently?"
"I don't know, I don't work there anymore, how do I know?"
"Then let me go and see for myself."
After Zhao Hu left, I also went to my mother's dumpling restaurant and didn't return to the hotel until that evening.
That night, the man with a duck voice invited us to dinner at a higher-end local restaurant. Three of his people came, and the others didn't come as he said they didn't matter.
During the meal, we also talked carefully about our next plans.
What the man with a duck voice means is that starting from tomorrow, we will first find the robber caves. After all the robber caves are found, we will go to the location of the Thirty-Six Cave Heavens to collect soil. At that time, each person will be responsible for three or four places. After collecting the soil, we will return and put it in the robber cave. In the cave, we will see what to do based on the next changes.
After all, the information he knew was very limited, and he didn't know what would happen after returning from the soil.
After chatting, we went back to rest.
Since the land belonged to the man with a duck voice, we didn’t have any worries during the day the next day. After breakfast, we went to his place and started looking for the robber cave.
The other robber caves are actually quite easy to find. The main reason is that the location of the robber caves is basically consistent with the actual location of Thirty-Six Cave Heavens. We have found a few before. According to the locations of these caves, based on the three The directions for the sixteen caves and the rest were found in almost a day.
