Chapter 534 Going Further and Further Down the Path of a Charlatan

Xisha Hotel is the main place on Yongxing Island for receiving visiting officials. It is rare to find a hotel of this standard on such a small island where land is extremely valuable. The hotel has good facilities and a beautiful environment.

It was probably a government-run hotel; the service was mediocre, and there were no restaurants or cafeterias. If you wanted breakfast, you had to go to the government canteen.

Fortunately, everyone had already eaten dinner while on the fishing boat, and after checking in, they took a shower and rested.

Due to the impact of the tropical storm, the daily flight was suspended for one day, so Gao Dongxu and his group had to stay on the island for an extra day and night.

The next morning, Jiang Zisuan braved the wind and rain to buy breakfast for six people from the canteen and woke up the others one by one.

Yawning, Gao Dongxu, wearing shorts and a T-shirt, put his arm around A Ning, who was also wearing a pink T-shirt, beach shorts, and had her hair down. She looked much more mature and exuded femininity. They greeted the four of them and sat down to enjoy their hot breakfast.

Seeing Wu Xie's tired and listless appearance, Gao Dongxu asked with a smile, "What's wrong? Didn't you sleep well?"

Wu Xie said with a wry smile, "Don't even mention it. I had nightmares all night, constantly dreaming about the Forbidden Woman. She either wanted me to hug her or kiss me..."

"Pfft—" Ah Ning couldn't help but burst out laughing. Fatty Wang and Jiang Zisuan also laughed out loud, and even the Silent One couldn't help but smile.

"Tianzhen, your taste is too heavy. I was wondering why that forbidden woman was chasing after you, turns out she really has her eye on you..." Fatty Wang teased.

Wu Xie smiled wryly and said, "I'm not kidding you guys, I really do dream about that forbidden woman every time I fall asleep..."

Amidst the teasing laughter of Wang Pangzi and his friends, Gao Dongxu ate his steamed buns and drank his rice porridge, looking at Wu Xie and saying calmly, "This is what you call a persistent ghost..."

Upon hearing Gao Dongxu's words, everyone stopped laughing and became serious. Wu Xie looked at Gao Dongxu with a wry smile, clasped his hands together, and said, "Young Master Gao, help me—"

Looking at the pitiful-looking Wu Xie, Gao Dongxu thought about how Wu Xie had lost the Qilin blood because of him. According to the plot, Wu Xie would go to the Qinling Mountains to search for the Bronze Tree. Without the Qilin blood, this trip would probably be fraught with danger.

He hesitated for a moment, then reached into his shorts pocket, actually taking out the ivory Jinyiwei commander's waist token from his spatial storage. He said to Wu Xie, "I told you down there that I would give you something. This ivory Jinyiwei commander's waist token is for you. It will be perfect for resolving the resentment within you. With it, all evil will be warded off—"

"Ah—" Wu Xie, with a look of surprise, hurriedly caught the waist token that Gao Dongxu threw to him with both hands.

As soon as he caught the waist token, he immediately shivered uncontrollably, then felt much lighter and his mind refreshed.

Immediate results!

Wu Xie stared wide-eyed at the ivory waist token clutched tightly in his hand. As if he had found a treasure, he hurriedly clasped his hands together and thanked Gao Dongxu, saying, "Young Master Gao, I am extremely grateful."

The others stared enviously at the waist token in Wu Xie's hand. They weren't blind; they naturally saw Wu Xie's exaggerated trembling and agitation after catching the token, and knew that this waist token was no ordinary object.

"Ahem. Young Master Gao, you can't be biased! I, Fatty Wang, am also your loyal little brother..." Fatty Wang coughed lightly, shamelessly pleading.

"Hehe." Gao Dongxu looked at Fatty Wang and laughed, "Don't you have the Tomb Raider Talisman? That's enough for you to live a carefree life."

"Ahem, don't laugh at me, but this tomb-raiding talisman of mine is just for show. Please have pity on me, Fatty Wang." In order to get the real treasure, Fatty Wang directly revealed his secret.

"Hehe, I bet it's just for show. Wang Kaixuan wouldn't give you a real tomb raiding talisman. The tomb raiding captains are known for their unity or their separation. If you really had a tomb raiding talisman, with your current antics, you would have died countless times by now." Gao Dongxu teased Wang Pangzi.

"There's such a saying?" Fatty Wang's eyes widened in astonishment; it was indeed the first time he had ever heard of it.

The others were also stunned.

"What do you think?" Gao Dongxu said calmly, then reached into his shorts pocket, took out three strings of five-emperor coins bracelets, and tossed them to Fatty, Jiang Zisuan, and Zhang Qiling, who had a surprised expression.

“These five-emperor coins are spiritual coins I found on Taobao. With them, evil spirits generally won’t dare to approach you.” Gao Dongxu said, looking at the fat man and Jiang Zisuan who were overjoyed. Finally, his gaze fell on Zhang Qiling, who was holding the five-emperor coins and looking somewhat surprised, and he said, “Actually, it doesn’t matter whether you wear these or not. Once your blood is drawn, all evil spirits will naturally be warded off. However, wearing them will help you avoid drawing blood once more.”

"Thank you." Zhang Qiling looked at Gao Dongxu with a glint in his eyes and expressed his heartfelt gratitude.

"Hmm." Gao Dongxu nodded slightly, accepting Zhang Qiling's thanks. Then, he looked at Wu Xie, Wang Pangzi, and Jiang Zisuan with a mocking expression and said, "You two should flatter Brother Zhang and get him to drip a few drops of blood on you. Then dry it with a hairdryer. It'll be a kind of blessing, and the power will increase several times over."

Wu Xie and the other two immediately turned their gazes intently to Zhang Qiling, while Zhang Qiling's lips twitched involuntarily. Seeing the three men with their eyes gleaming with greed, he chose to ignore them and silently continued eating.

After breakfast, Gao Dongxu put his arm around the somewhat sullen A Ning and led her back to their room.

"Are you on your period? That's not right, I just..." Gao Dongxu frowned as he looked at A Ning, who broke free from his embrace as soon as she entered the room.

"Pah, you're the one who's on your period, hmph—" Ah Ning's pretty face flushed red, and she glared at Gao Dongxu angrily. She snorted coldly, took off her shoes, got into bed, turned her back to Gao Dongxu, covered herself with the blanket, and continued to be angry.

Seeing Gao Dongxu suddenly get angry and not understanding why, he couldn't help but laugh and cry. He took off his clothes, hugged A Ning from behind as she shook her body to express her dissatisfaction, and whispered in her ear, "Even if you're angry, you should at least tell me why you're angry, right?" A Ning turned around abruptly, her bright almond-shaped eyes wide open as she stared at Gao Dongxu and said in a coquettish voice, "I always thought the Five Emperors Coins you gave me were very precious, but today I realized you have so many... I've been treasuring them so much—"

Upon hearing that this was the reason for his anger, Gao Dongxu looked at A Ning with a wry smile and said, "Do you think what I gave them can compare to yours?"

Ah Ning's beautiful eyes lit up, but a sly glint still flashed within them. She gave a coquettish snort, "Hmph, who knows? Anyway, I don't care, you have to compensate me with something even better than Wu Xie's waist token—"

"Hahaha..." Gao Dongxu chuckled, looking teasingly at A Ning, whose pretty face was slightly flushed and who seemed a little embarrassed, and said, "So you want the treasure, huh?"

"Don't laugh—" Ah Ning said coquettishly, twisting her body shyly.

"Hehe, okay, I won't laugh, I won't laugh..." Gao Dongxu looked at A Ning's delicate and beautiful face, her eyebrows were curved, her eyes were big and round, watery and pitiful, and her small mouth was pink and beautiful, her skin was fair and delicate. He couldn't help but become interested, and a mischievous smile flashed in his eyes.

"Want a baby? No problem, but you'll have to take good care of me..."

Gao Dongxu blushed even more, and Ah Ning, who kept playfully punching his chest, continued, "I promise to give you a real treasure."

"Really?!" Upon hearing this, Ah Ning blushed and looked intently at Gao Dongxu with her beautiful eyes, asking again to confirm.

"real--"

"What do you want...?"

"I hope you can convince me with your words first. If you can't, I hope you can take the initiative to study and become knowledgeable..." Gao Dongxu said with a faint smile.

“You—” Ah Ning’s pretty face flushed red, her pearly teeth lightly biting her red lips, her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, watery, she stared at Gao Dongxu and said in a trembling voice, “If you dare to lie to me, I will never talk to you again.”

“I promise I’ll keep my word, let’s begin—” Gao Dongxu raised an eyebrow and chuckled.

Ah Ning looked at Gao Dongxu with seductive eyes, her pretty face slightly flushed. After hesitating for a moment, she finally took off the hair tie from her wrist and tied up her loose hair.

With her hair tied up, she's ready to unleash her full power!

"Chong-"

"That's it?"

Feeling refreshed and carefree, Gao Dongxu, who was comparable to a sage, smoked a cigarette while looking at A Ning, whose pretty face was flushed and whose brows were filled with a strong sense of spring. She didn't care that the blanket had slipped off, and her beautiful eyes were sparkling. A Ning, who had previously looked weak and helpless, now held a cold and sharp blade and looked like a female assassin, raised her eyebrows in question.

Gao Dongxu laughed and said, "This is a famous Japanese sword that has drunk countless lives, can cut iron like mud, and can cut a hair with a breath. The last owner of this sword was from a large family in Japan with a thousand-year history. He was killed by the commander of the Ming Dynasty's Embroidered Uniform Guard, and this sword became a trophy of war."

"Hmm, it is indeed very sharp—" Ah Ning tested the sharpness of the blade with a strand of hair, her beautiful eyes growing brighter. She turned to look at Gao Dongxu and said coquettishly, "Can it deal with monsters?"

“No problem with the supernatural aspects, because it’s a deadly weapon. Even gods and ghosts fear evil people, and they also fear deadly weapons,” Gao Dongxu said with a smile.

Upon hearing Gao Dongxu's words, A Ning liked the famous Japanese sword in her hand even more. She sheathed the long sword, hugged it to her arms, and lay back in Gao Dongxu's embrace, smiling sweetly and saying softly, "You've passed—"

"Hehe, since you've put in so much effort, of course I can't let you down." Gao Dongxu smiled and gently stroked A Ning's smooth and delicate breasts, speaking softly.

"Hmph—" Ah Ning gave a shy hum, having truly endured her shame and put in a lot of effort for this knife.

The two embraced tenderly for a long time. Suddenly, A Ning looked up at Gao Dongxu and said, "I brought back the Snake-Eyebrow Bronze Fish this time to give Jude Kao hope. He will definitely continue to assign me tasks, which may be even more dangerous. I want my little brother to stay by your side."

"No, I'm worried about you being alone. Although your brother is impulsive, he's quite skilled and can help you if he stays by your side. If Jude Kao puts you in danger, remember to make a request to him that you bring as many people as possible. Do you understand? You must bring as many people as possible. You need to know that the more people you have, the more secure you will be." Gao Dongxu looked down at A Ning's beautiful face and gave her a very serious and earnest instruction.

Several characters in The Lost Tomb have their own buffs. A Ning's strange buff is that she can kill off her subordinates. As long as she has a lot of subordinates, she can remain safe even if all of them die. Later, she had no more subordinates to kill, so she immediately logged off.

"Okay, I understand. Don't worry, I'll definitely bring more people." Seeing Gao Dongxu's serious instructions, Ah Ning knew that her man was no ordinary person and that there must be a reason for his instructions, so she immediately took them seriously.

"Is there some special meaning to it?" Ah Ning's beautiful eyes sparkled with curiosity as she stared intently at Gao Dongxu.

"Hmm, your destiny is very powerful and ruthless. When you encounter danger, you can have others die in your place. So, every time you go on an adventure, the more dangerous it is, the more people under your command will die. But even if all your people die, you can still turn bad luck into good and escape alive. Think about it, isn't that right?" Gao Dongxu started to act like a charlatan and fool A Ning.

Ah Ning was stunned at first, then her expression suddenly changed. Her beautiful eyes widened, her red lips trembled, and she stared at Gao Dongxu in shock, speechless, not knowing what to say. Finally, she said with a bitter smile, "So, they were all killed by me..."

"Ahem. It's not that you're cursed to die, it's that you're forced to die in someone else's place. Unless you avoid the danger altogether, you're destined to lose your men. Remember, absolutely, absolutely never go into danger alone, or you'll surely die. Do you understand? You'll definitely die. So, when you go tomb raiding, make sure you have enough men with you. Don't feel guilty; they're all Jude Kao's men, mercenaries who'll do anything for money." Gao Dongxu continued to play the charlatan to prevent A Ning from being suddenly killed off by the plot.
