After being universally criticized online, I went viral on military-themed variety shows.

Chapter 338 Only You Can Dream of a Sword
Jiang Hanying took a shower first.

After wrapping herself in a bathrobe, Pei Yuan, who was waiting in the living room, had already preheated the hair straightener.

First, use a hairdryer to dry your hair. After washing it, your previously frizzy hair has become slightly wavy, and it actually looks quite nice.

Pei Yuan felt a little regretful when she straightened her hair with a flat iron. "If this were a modern drama, I wouldn't even need to curl my hair. It's such a pity."

"Nothing to regret."

If she wanted to, getting struck by lightning would be easier than eating; she could be struck down anytime, anywhere.

It was already past ten o'clock when Pei Yuan finished straightening her hair. She packed up her tools and left. Jiang Hanying touched her newly straightened and still warm hair and went into the bedroom, throwing herself onto the bed.

With her eyes closed, she couldn't help but secretly sense the location of her cheap owner.

Having just finished monitoring the villa complex and returned to his temporary residence, Li Chengxiao was now certain that it wasn't his imagination or a trick of the eye.

There's definitely something strange about the mark left on the palm.

Before Jiang Hanying could sense that her cheap master had moved, and just as she was about to make a video call, his phone rang first.

Jiang Hanying answered the call without thinking.

Then I saw a hand with clear palm lines and distinct knuckles appear on the screen in front of me.

She was very familiar with that hand, after all, she had just shaken it for a while during the day.

The owner called her on video to look at her hands; surely it wasn't to have her read her palm?
A bad feeling immediately arose in my heart.

"My hand," Li Chengxiao paused deliberately when he saw Jiang Hanying sitting up straight and quietly, which was unusual for her. He continued, "I thought I had just been shocked, but now I realize it's more than that."

"Haha," Jiang Hanying chuckled dryly, "What else?"

"Then I'll have to ask you, what exactly is this mark left on my hand?"

"Uh, it's just a small marker."

Li Chengxiao flipped his phone camera around and quietly observed for a few seconds the people whose eyes were darting left and right, up and down, but never looking at the screen. "I'm afraid there are more than that."

"Then you can't get angry when I tell you, and you can't think I'm acting on my own initiative."

Li Chengxiao almost laughed out of anger, "Fine."

Jiang Hanying breathed a sigh of relief and blurted out the truth: "This thing can sense when the two of us are close together."

"How close is the distance?"

"About a hundred meters."

"So, as long as I'm within 100 meters of you, you'll know where I am?"

"Correct."

Jiang Hanying finished speaking and saw that her cheap owner showed no signs of anger, so she was just about to breathe a sigh of relief.

"anything else?"

"And also, as long as I know where you are, I can sense your location."

"So you've installed a tracking device on me?"

"That's understandable."

Li Chengxiao: "...Then can I sense your location in return?"

"No."

Speechless to the point of having no temper.

But this person still had the nerve to say, "You just promised you wouldn't be angry. Actually, there was a reason why I set up the location."

"Tell me the reason."

“You couldn’t be reached last night, right? You didn’t answer my calls or reply to my messages. But now that I have this location tracking, it’s different. I can not only know your location, but I can also sense if you are in danger or need help.” Jiang Hanying became more and more self-righteous as she spoke, and finally added the classic line, “I’m doing this all for your own good, and I even got struck by lightning for you.”

Li Chengxiao: "..."

These words made him feel that even getting angry was a heinous crime.

"Can you install this location tracking on just anyone?"

“How could that be?” Jiang Hanying shook her head without hesitation. “Only you can do it. You’re different.” Li Chengxiao felt his heart tremble violently, and the last bit of anger he felt from being acted against without permission vanished in an instant.

"Okay. So you know where I was an hour ago, and where I am now?"

"Yes, the villa you were monitoring tonight is next door to where Duanmu Rongrong and Duanmu Long live. Our crew went there for a banquet tonight, and I sensed you as soon as you arrived."

"No wonder."

"How did you find out that there was something wrong with that villa?"

“The Que family has been operating here for generations and has considerable influence. Moreover, Que Zhishan’s sister, Que Zhiyun, is in charge of information security. This afternoon, I asked them to help me check the movements of those four people, and they eventually found out about the villa.”

"Has Que Zhishan gone up the mountain?"

"Yes, we'll leave after having dinner early this evening."

"Did you see the guests who came to that villa tonight?"

"I saw it, but I couldn't see the face clearly. I'm about to check."

“No need to investigate, I saw it. One of them is Uncle Ge Dahai, who recently escaped from my clutches. The middle-aged man with him should be the same kind.”

Li Chengxiao paused for a moment, then asked, "How did you see their faces?"

“I lay on the artificial hill outside and went back inside after watching them go inside.”

"They have a good eye for finding places."

"The villa next door is right behind the wall."

"So, the Corpse-Hidden Worms are also connected to this organization. Their emergence from the mountains this time is related to the Stone Embryo?"

"I guessed so. Is this place getting more and more lively?"

"Hmm." Li Chengxiao thought for a moment and decided to let him know in advance, "I'll probably be going into the mountains later too."

Jiang Hanying was also somewhat tempted.

A single stone fetus has attracted so many people; the scene must have been incredibly exciting.

However, considering the work at hand, he had to suppress his interest again. "Do you think Duanmu Sen might also join in the fun?"

Li Chengxiao paused for a moment, then said, "Perhaps."

Seeing this, Jiang Hanying didn't reveal her plans. If Duanmu Sen still wanted to take advantage of his cheap master, she could let the old man experience what it meant to be utterly chilled.

Even corpse-laying worms can't save them!

"I'm sleepy."

"Okay, I'm hanging up now. You should get some rest."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Hanying tossed her phone onto the bedside table, pulled the blanket over herself, and soon fell asleep.

On the other hand, Li Chengxiao couldn't fall asleep for a long time, thinking about the last question Jiang Hanying asked him before hanging up the video call.

Twenty years ago, he was in danger on Queshan Mountain and his life was hanging by a thread when he was rescued by Uncle Sen, who was still very young at the time and was hiking on Queshan Mountain.

Will he and Uncle Sen meet again at Queshan twenty years later?

With this question in mind, Li Chengxiao closed his eyes and drifted into a dream.

I thought that after falling asleep this time, I would dream again about the first time I met Uncle Sen, and all the little things about how I was trained by him over the years.

After all, he had had similar dreams more than once since he learned that Uncle Sen was related to the Corpse-Hidden Worm.

Unexpectedly, this time the dream was filled with scenes I had never dreamed of before.

There was only one sword in my dream.

It was undoubtedly a very beautiful sword, like the clearest rainbow left by autumn waters gliding across an endless frosty sky.

The key thing is, this sword can talk!

The voice was familiar; it was Jiang Hanying's voice.

For the first time in his life, he was awakened by a dream!
