C272 No Concept of Consumption
After leaving the orphanage, Jiang Chen had done a lot of shameful things. Although it wasn't a crime, it was still a bit embarrassing.
One of them was a tomb robber, but his tomb robbing technique wasn't that particular, it was just following the small robbers and didn't encounter any big traps, so he didn't have any big gains. When he was lucky, he could only sell it for a thousand yuan, just enough for him to eat.
But even so, he still knew some things about the location and structure of the tomb. He felt suspicious about that cave just now, but out of habit, he kept thinking about it in his mind. He frowned and suddenly realized that it was the entrance to an ancient tomb.
When they arrived at the entrance of the cave, there was a small stone tablet at the entrance. Jiang Chen couldn't understand what was carved on it.
In general, Jiang Chen would not dare to enter this kind of place. However, after holding the torch and looking at the messy footprints and dragging marks at the entrance of the cave, he was sure that someone had already explored this tomb, and if they dragged a big guy out, it must be to remove the trap in the cave, otherwise they wouldn't be able to come out.
It was a good opportunity for him to study. Jiang Chen didn't care that much, so he went in to investigate.
Jiang Chen thought that it would be very deep inside, but everything was different from what he imagined.
He had only taken a few steps when he reached the end of the cave. He was a bit disappointed.
In the end, there was a coffin with a skeleton inside. Jiang Chen took a glance and naturally guessed that everything on his body had been stolen by a grave robber.
"There's always a debt to blame, and I'm sorry for offending you, but I'm not the one who stole it. Don't come looking for me, big brother!" Jiang Chen held the torch in his hand and casually bowed a few times, implying that this person should not come to him.
However, when he looked down, he suddenly saw that there seemed to be a strange device beneath the coffin. Curious, he slowly crouched down and reached out with his hand.
However, such a simple touch made something unexpected happen. Jiang Chen only felt a strange muffled sound and the ground shook. Suddenly, the ground loosened and he and the coffin went down together like quicksand.
Fortunately, the ground underneath was very soft due to the underground water. After sliding for a long time, Jiang Chen fell onto the ground and was fine.
The only thing that frightened him the most was that the coffin fell backwards as it slid down. The bones inside slid out and stuck close to his body. After landing, the skull even made intimate contact with him, causing him to break out in a cold sweat.
"I already said it's not me, why are you playing with me?" "Brother..." Jiang Chen said while throwing the bone aside in disgust.
The torch was also extinguished by the dirt and the surrounding light was very weak. Jiang Chen could only barely see the entrance that he slid down, but what was underground? He reached out his hand and blotted out everything.
In the dim light, he used his hands to feel his surroundings and crawled up. However, he inadvertently touched a book.
Jiang Chen frowned and touched it again. He was surprised to find that although it was a little damp, it was indeed a good book.
"Looks like I didn't return empty-handed today …"
Jiang Chen joked to himself. Without any hesitation, he went straight down the slope and returned.
Jiang Chen put the book away and stumbled back to the shore.
"Are you okay?" Qingxue asked. Actually, she was worried that Jiang Chen would be infected with some poison and pass it on to her.
"Hehe, I'm fine!"
"It's good that you're fine. Then listen carefully, country bumpkin. I've thought about it for a long time. This fire needs to be filled with firewood until daybreak, so I allowed you to lie down near this fire and help me get more firewood. "So you have to work hard tonight."
Jiang Chen was speechless. What the hell was this logic? " This is the fire I raised! "
"I bought it with my dress. Do you know how much it costs?"
"Isn't this the costume the makeup team gave you? What did you spend? "
Dongfang Qingxue was in the wrong, but she said willfully, "I don't care. Since you agreed to it, I'll give you the skirt and you can give me the fire. So this fire is mine, you have to listen to me if you use it! "Country bumpkin!"
"Hehe …" Jiang Chen looked at her helplessly. Since he was going to use the fire himself, it didn't matter if he added firewood.
"However, I am only responsible for the firewood. Once the wolves and tigers come down, I will not care about you."
Qingxue initially wanted to lie down and rest, but when she heard this, she suddenly sat up straight in fright. Her expression was grave and she didn't move at all.1
"Are there any more wolves here?"
"Otherwise? Why do you think I came out in such a hurry? " Jiang Chen laughed evilly and purposely intimidated her.
"You have to protect that country bumpkin."
"I refuse!" Your skirt is only enough to buy my fire. You can think about other things. "
"Then I'll give you another 1 million. Let me tell you, 1 million is as much as a box. You've never seen so much money in your life!" "If you don't agree, you won't have a chance!"
Dongfang Qingxue thought that her wishful thinking was right. She thought that someone like Jiang Chen must have never seen so much money. Who knew that Jiang Chen would reject him so easily.
"No!"
"What …" Qingxue gestured frantically, "1 million is that much!"
"Then keep it for yourself."
"Then two million!" Qingxue was so nervous that she couldn't even match her moves properly anymore.
Jiang Chen smiled interestingly. Don't say that teasing a popular celebrity is so interesting.
Jiang Chen would naturally protect her if she really met a wolf or tiger. But before this, Jiang Chen also thought of a very bad idea in order to take revenge on this girl for looking down on him time and time again.
"How about this, I won't hold back for you. If you can say 'Father, I was wrong' to me, I'll protect your safety tonight."
"Hey …" "Call me daddy?!" Dongfang Qingxue's face turned red and her ears turned red. She even had the urge to kill Jiang Chen. She was a dignified Dongfang Qingxue! How many people had treated her like a goddess of their dreams, and now she actually wanted to call this country bumpkin in front of them "Daddy"?!
But... The situation now …
It would be fine if she was safe and sound, but if a wolf really came and Jiang Chen ignored her, then she would really be eaten, wouldn't she?
She didn't want to die, especially since she died in such a horrible way.
"You can't call me that. In short, if you do, I'll guard you tonight with my eyes open. If you don't, then if a wolf really does come, then you better behave." After saying that, Jiang Chen laid down leisurely and used his arms to support his head.
He didn't know why, but he felt a little strange today. An inexplicable sleepiness overcame him, as if he could fall asleep the moment he closed his eyes.
"..." Dongfang Qingxue bit her lips to the point that she was about to bleed. Looking at Jiang Chen's expression, she thought she really couldn't do it.
