Chapter 293 Avoid the limelight

After the lights go out, the light from outside shines in.

Let there be some light in the house.

After a day of hard work, I was actually a little sleepy.

Zhang Qing said to me at this time: "Master Zhuo, you go to sleep first, I will watch over you."

Zhang Qing's words stunned me for a few seconds, and then I said: "You don't have to guard, nothing big will happen."

Zhang Qing listened to my words and quickly began to fall asleep. I fell asleep not as fast as Zhang Qing.

I don't know when, the sound of rain suddenly sounded outside.

Accompanied by the sound of rain falling, I reluctantly fell asleep.

In fact, even if Xiao Miao wants to attack me, he will never kill me?

Not only Xiao Miao, but also the others who caught me.

That's why I can sleep peacefully.

When I woke up the next day, I was awakened by the sound of thunder.

The sound of "roaring" kept rolling past my ears. I opened my eyes and found that the temperature had dropped suddenly.

After calculating the time, we have indeed entered November, and the weather is gradually getting colder.

As soon as I opened my eyes, Zhang Qing's voice suddenly sounded, "Master Xiao Zhuo, are you awake?"

My eyes fell on Zhang Qing, and seeing the two dark circles under his eyes, I couldn't help but say, "Did you not sleep last night?"

"I didn't sleep, Mr. Zhuo, but you don't have to worry, I'm in good spirits."

Zhang Qing said.

Looking at him like this, I felt that his mental state could not be better.

"Zhang Qing, you go to bed first, I'll go out to meet someone."

I was actually quite moved by Zhang Qing's actions. To a certain extent, my recognition and trust in Zhang Qing increased.

I walked out the door and ran towards the room where Xiao Miao was.

The time at this time was approximately ten o'clock in the morning.

Entering Xiao Miao's room, Xiao Miao had already gotten up. It was raining heavily outside, and Xiao Miao's expression was calm, making it difficult to tell the depth.

Xiao Miao must have had his own purpose in coming to Jiangcheng this time.

After sitting down, she suddenly asked me: "Chen Zhuo, what do you plan to do next?"

"Next step?"

I asked doubtfully.

"Yes, what do you think?"

"Next, I want to have a meal first, do you think that's okay?"

After I finished speaking, Xiao Miao rolled her eyes at me and said, "Of course."

"But Chen Zhuo, do you still want to eat now? Don't you know what situation you are in?"

Xiao Miao reminded me.

"Of course I know, but the more this happens, the more I can't mess up now."

I said calmly.

There was some confusion under Xiao Miao's eyes, but he didn't say anything.

"I'm going to eat, do you want to come with me?"

"good."

This hotel also has a restaurant, so you can eat in this hotel.

I ordered a few stir-fries.

The people who followed Xiao Miao didn't dare to sit down to eat. This kind of rule is still very strict in the Xiao family.

When the food came, I started eating.

After waiting for a while, Xiao Miao took the initiative and said: "Chen Zhuo, you really should think carefully about your next move?"

"Next step? How about we cooperate?"

I ate a piece of meat and looked up at Xiao Miao.

Xiao Miao was slightly startled and said, "Chen Zhuo, your choice is the most correct, and our cooperation is the wisest."

The corners of Xiao Miao's mouth were slightly raised, revealing a faint smile, looking confident and charming.

"It's indeed wise for us to cooperate, so can you guarantee my safety?"

I stated my minimum requirements.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Miao said: "This is natural. Ensuring your safety is the most basic standard."

I continued to eat.

Xiao Miao continued the ropeway: "Chen Zhuo, the purpose of our coming to Jiangcheng this time is to see you. The second is to go to the Ghostland Swamp. Therefore, if you cooperate with us, you will also go to the Ghostland Swamp."

"You want to break the original secret? Enter the Ghost Palace?"

I put down my chopsticks and asked curiously.

"Well, that's right. If we go inside, we might be able to find what we really need."

Xiao Miao's eyes suddenly became darker.

I don’t know what the ultimate goal Xiao Miao is talking about, but I vaguely feel that it’s not simple.

She seemed to have been in need of blood jade beads before.

Will there be blood jade beads in this ghost palace?

Maybe there is something that can directly replace the blood jade beads.

If I go to the Ghost Swamp, does that mean I have to reveal Grandpa's secrets?

This is something I don't really want to do.

Seeing that I didn't answer, Xiao Miao paused for a while and said, "Chen Zhuo, do you need to think about it?"

"Yes, I do need to think about it, Xiao Miao, and I can't do much to help with the matter of going to Guitian Palace."

I said this.

Xiao Miao looked a little disbelieving.

After finishing the meal, I felt that the conversation was not very pleasant. At present, I am really being roasted on the fire. I need a reliable person to help me get through this crisis. It is very difficult for me to rely on myself this time.

Big, big.

Is Xiao Miao the reliable person?

Not necessarily.

But for now, she needs me...and I need her.

Including Xu Pingchun.

But Xu Pingchun gave me a different feeling, and this feeling was more dangerous.

As for Wang Ergou...

It makes me feel confused and confused.

I had a vague feeling that Wang Ergou was hiding something behind his back. But I also had a vague feeling that there was nothing hidden behind him.

This dog is really hard to understand.

"Chen Zhuo, don't worry. I won't leave now in Jiangcheng. You should think about it carefully. During this period, we are responsible for your safety."

"Okay, thank you."

I said calmly.

After dinner, I returned to the room and looked at the dozens of missed calls on my phone. I still called back.

Most of these missed calls were from Wang Ergou.

I called back and was answered almost instantly. His voice seemed a little urgent and he asked: "Master Xiao Zhuo, are you okay now?"

"Well, I'm fine, what's wrong?"

I asked.

Wang Ergou's voice came from the other side, "Master Zhuo, the current situation is very unfavorable to you. Tell me where you are? I will protect you."

"Brother Dog, it's useless for you to come alone. There are so many people trying to catch me now. If you come back, you might leak your whereabouts and be used by others."

I said this.

Wang Ergou was silent for a while, and then said: "Master Zhuo, what you said is correct, but I am still worried about your safety."

"Brother Dog, don't worry, nothing will happen to me in a short time."

After I said this, Wang Ergou was silent for a while, and then suddenly said: "By the way, Mr. Xiao Zhuo, I already have some clues about what you asked me to inquire about before."

"Have you found the whereabouts of the Qin family?"

I asked immediately.

"Well, I did find the whereabouts of an insider named Qin, but I'm not sure yet if he is the person you are looking for?"
