"Why are you shouting so loudly? If you have anything, look for the housekeeper!"

A familiar voice came from behind Gao Shou. The corners of Gao Shou's mouth curled up slightly, and he slowly turned around.

"Oh, no, Huo Qingyi, you brat, you've become a lot more mischievous after coming back from your trip.”

A man dressed in an ancient robe stood at the door. He looked to be in his early twenties, but his skin looked very pale. It was the kind of paleness that made people afraid. He looked as if he would fall at any moment. However, there was a trace of a smile on his face, which gave people the feeling of a spring breeze.

Huo Qingyi smiled and placed her hands behind her back as she walked towards Gao Shou.

"After surviving a great disaster, there will be good fortune. Naturally, I will be happier.”

"Oh? Is that so?" As he said that, Gao Shou's eyes darted to the side. From the corner of his eye, he saw a large package. On the dark black skin, there were still traces of soil on it. Although this large black backpack was full, it still did not contain everything.

A long iron rod stretched out from inside. Ordinary people would think it was the handle of a small shovel, but the smell of dirt on it completely exposed him.

Gao Shou walked over. When he was still far away, Gao Shou sniffed lightly with his nose. Then, he could smell that other than the smell of dirt, he could also smell the smell of blood.

"It does look quite miserable, but did you get anything?”Gao Shou shook his head and didn't do any more research on this. After all, he had already seen this kind of thing many times. This kind of thing didn't arouse his interest.

Huo Qingyi smiled and said softly,""Yes, there are quite a few! Especially the Hundred Insect Poison, which was used in ancient times as a sacrifice…"

"You know that's not what I wanted to ask!”Before Huo Qingyi could finish, Gao Shou interrupted her.

Huo Qingyi stared at Gao Shou for a long time before shaking her head,""No, I haven't."

"Is that so? How many more years?" Gao Shou nodded and asked expressionlessly.

"I'm 21 this year. There are less than three years left. I don't know if I can hold on until that day. After all, in our line of work, who dares to say when I will fall into a trap? Sometimes, I envy you. You're a small boss who doesn't expect to earn a lot of money and doesn't starve. You don't have to do it for some purpose…"

Hearing Gao Shou's question, Huo Qingyi walked into the house and took out a pot of water that had just been boiled. She then took out a tea set and said as she brewed some tea.

However, even though Huo Qingyi's words were very quiet, Gao Shou couldn't bear to listen to her anymore.

"Stop, stop, stop! No, why are you always talking about such things? Isn't there still three years left? It was not completely hopeless. And why are you envious of me? I'm just an unambitious person who wants to eat and wait for death all day long. Aren't you insulting me by saying that you envy me?”

After saying that, Gao Shou paused for a moment and then said,""Scholar, you are one of my few friends. So, if that day really comes, you must call me along. I will go with you!”

Huo Qingyi wasn't upset that Gao Shou had interrupted her. Instead, she listened attentively to what Gao Shou had to say. When she heard the last part of what Gao Shou had to say, Huo Qingyi's hand that was brewing tea stopped for a moment.

Huo Qingyi put down the tea set and raised her head. She looked at Gao Shou's serious face and couldn't help but find it funny. He was obviously such a random person, yet he had such an expression on his face.

"Even if it means death?"

"Even if it means death!"

Gao Shou's words were firm and decisive. Huo Qingyi looked at her with a dazed expression. But after a long while, she shook her head.

Huo Qingyi's lips curled up slightly, but she didn't say anything. She lowered her head again and started to cut the tea.

The courtyard fell into silence once again.

Not long after, Huo Qingyi handed a cup of freshly cut tea to Gao Shou. At the same time, she said,""I've already said my piece. Now, let's talk about yours. Boss Gao, you don't come to me for no reason. Just tell me what you want.”

Gao Shou took the tea and gently tasted it before placing it on the table.

In this situation, no matter what he ate, it would be tasteless. Gao Shou had no more leisure time to savor tea.

"Scholar, let me tell you. You are my last hope now. If you tell me that you can't see anything, I'll say goodbye to you in two days.”

As he spoke, Gao Shou stretched out his hand and placed the sword sheath on the stone table. He then spoke to Huo Qingyi.

Huo Qingyi looked at Gao Shou, then opened the black cloth that wrapped around the scabbard. She reached out and picked up the scabbard, then looked at it.

"How is it?"

After a long time, Gao Shou noticed that Huo Qingyi was staring at the scabbard without moving at all. Gao Shou almost thought that she was possessed!

Hearing Gao Shou's words, Huo Qingyi let out a sigh of relief. She lifted her head and looked at Gao Shou, saying,""Where did you get this thing?”

"Big Golden Teeth gave it to me. Aiya, tell me if you can see anything!”Hearing Huo Qingyi's question, Gao Shou quickly replied and urged her.

"I can understand it, but it will take time.”

"How long?" Gao Shou quickly said. After all, he had the time to study Huo Qingyi, but he didn't have the time to wait!

"Give me one day. Come over tomorrow morning. "But…" Huo Qingyi thought for a moment and said.

"This should be a map of an ancient tomb!”
