The Informal Tomb Raiding Diary: She is the occupant of the tomb!-Chapter 236 - 237: Doing Boring Things, Enjoying a Happy Life
The so-called top-secret place was actually an out-of-the-way place that even birds avoided. They were being pursued and couldn’t break free to retrieve their weapons, which were locked in a container similar to a safe. Each of them held a third of the key, which had to be combined to open the weapon cabinet.
So what they meant was for me to personally go to the tomb to retrieve these three key segments, piece them together, and then go to the place where the weapons were hidden to retrieve them for them.
There are ordinary people in my clan too. They have no special abilities, while those who are not ordinary each have their own skills and abilities, like innate talents that are unique to each person.
Ordinary people want to gain extraordinary abilities, and those who already have them want higher-level, more powerful forces.
As for those standing at the top of the pyramid, they always lack trust in each other and are not entirely carefree.
Back then, the absolute strong were driven to hide inside the tombs of outsiders, relying on manipulating zongzi for survival, which is a kind of sorrow.
Fortunately, they are quite optimistic. Judging by their chat statuses, they don’t seem too dissatisfied with their current lives, except for a sword hanging over their heads that makes them quite displeased.
Bi Shi just came out of her Tomb Prison. It’s impossible for her to find the three deliberately hiding people within seven days, so I suspect He Su might have contact with them.
He Su is currently in an extremely unstable state, even though she doesn’t want to give her resources and power to Bi Shi, she has no choice. Someone has to oversee the situation for her and ensure her personal safety when she’s asleep.
She just experienced betrayal by a trusted confidant, which significantly lowered her trust in her subordinates. Believing Bi Shi is an act of helplessness.
Besides, during our dangerous mission, Bi Shi protected her well, never leaving her behind in emergencies.
Precisely because Bi Shi covets the resources in her hands, there are fewer variables between them.
Of course, He Su is also in the ’Blood Clan Old Timers Group,’ but she’s rarely awake. If she @mentions me, it means she’s awake, but she only has time to send a kissing or hugging sticker.
After talking with the three old acquaintances, I only said I would consider it, not immediately agreeing to help.
The terms they offered were quite attractive, saying they could help me access the Karmic Fire’s output limits.
If anyone else had said this, I wouldn’t have believed it, but when the three of them said it, it was more credible. They inherited the abilities of ancient strong people, and maybe they could change my constitution.
Like unblocking the governor and conception vessels or Washing Marrow and Rebuilding, so I could use Karmic Fire without limitations.
However, behind great benefits also lie great risks. I don’t believe they haven’t sought help from others over the years, they just haven’t succeeded.
Whether or not to help with this, I have to think about it more.
Bi Shi asked for my address and sent me a box of phones. She kept her promise, but I can’t use so many; in two years the model will be outdated. So, I live-streamed ’supernatural events’ on a short video app, selecting lucky viewers from those who liked and followed to randomly give away phones, until they were gone. The video’s name was ’What Did They See?’
I recorded all the places near the neighborhood where stray cats gathered. The content of the video is that as soon as I appeared, the cats within five meters would collectively puff up and flee.
I appeared wearing a baseball cap and mask, proving that I didn’t use any other means to scare the cats and there was no one else around.
The comments included people calling me a fraud, saying the video was surely edited, and others saying there’s something dirty behind me.
Videos with curiosities always attract comments, with some viewers going off-topic, merely commenting on how long and black my hair is or how my eyes are nice, completely ignoring if the cats were alive or dead.
Animal lovers also condemned me in the comments, questioning why I’m scaring those poor stray cats, and saying that such shameless attention-seeking videos must be reported.
Seeing such comments, I gazed up at the sky at a melancholic 45-degree angle, deciding to tell them the truth. So, I replied: I am scaring you, the ants...
Bi Shi watched my video and sent me a message: If you’re really this idle, why not help them get the weapons.
I sighed, wanting to say Bi Shi doesn’t understand me. My new life goal is to idle around doing boring things, keeping away from anything meaningful.
Currently, scaring cats and people is what I want to do most.
Bi Shi sent me a wave of gifts and then privately messaged me again: What kind of people can’t see clearly, saying your eyes are A?
I was unhappy and replied: Aren’t I A?
This time Bi Shi surprisingly didn’t refute me, taking a moment to reply: Don’t be too domineering, hold back a bit, it’s like a middle school syndrome.
Before I started the live broadcast, I posted the message in my friends’ circle. It was just out of boredom, irrelevant if anyone watched. Unexpectedly, the rockets, yachts, and planes started flying out like popcorn on my first live broadcast with the new account.
The unexpected gifts startled passersby who accidentally clicked in. I never imagined Chen Qinghan would join the fun and even open a VIP in the livestream.
Who would throw gifts at such a boring video? Isn’t that just a ruse?
Sure enough, someone commented saying I’m a tycoon, entertaining myself, directing and acting alone.
I turned off the live stream, my heart pounding. With trembling fingers, I messaged Chen Qinghan, asking: "Where did the money for the gifts and VIP come from?"
"Wool comes from sheep." Chen Qinghan quickly replied.
"Chen—Brute—Beast!" I’m gonna fight you!
"Just teasing, didn’t touch your house fund."
"You almost scared me to death, thank goodness~"
"But it did spend my wife’s fund, so you’re in trouble, big trouble."
"Don’t care, you voluntarily sent gifts, who told you to spend recklessly, I’m just idling."
"Still, gotta support you somehow, after all... idle time is always very short-lived and rare."
"Hmm? Are there hidden meanings in your words? Are my good days over?"
"Smart."
"Don’t praise me, when you praise me, there’s usually nothing good."
"There’s a task, need to take a trip, departing the morning after tomorrow."
"Didn’t I apply to transfer away from grave digging to the first line?"
"Xiuyuan is in trouble, she’s understaffed there, with a pressing task, we’re just borrowing hands."
Mentioning Qi Xiuyuan, Chen Qinghan told me a couple of days ago that her department was nearly emptied by her, and the people she controlled through Gu and hypnosis were not a few.
Moreover, they were all frontline field personnel. She seemed to be collecting something through them, but unfortunately, the elite guy died, and we still couldn’t obtain the most significant list.
The monotonous happy life lasted only half a month before being interrupted by a new task. Chen Qinghan seemed to notice my post-festival syndrome and handed me a gift box when coming to pick me up for the task.
Seeing the blue lotus hairpin inside, I finally regained my work enthusiasm and embarked on a new journey with my ’crown’!
