Chapter 131 The Fire-Breathing Snake!
Chapter 131 The Fire-Breathing Snake!
He tried putting the wristband on his right hand.
A snap.
The wristband tightened automatically, conforming to his skin, then quickly extended to cover his entire forearm, finally disappearing into his sleeve, completely invisible from the outside.
Zhang Yan clenched his fist, feeling as if his strength had increased considerably.
"What's in that box?"
Nie Qingcheng curiously leaned closer.
Zhang Yan opened the black box.
Inside lay a pale blue crystal, no bigger than a fingernail, yet radiating a chilling energy fluctuation.
"This is... the backup energy core of the Tengshe."
Zhang Yan recognized him at a glance.
If this thing were put up for auction, it would probably make the world's energy giants fight tooth and nail.
"It's yours."
Zhang Yan casually tossed the priceless crystal to Nie Qingcheng as if it were a glass bead.
"What can this thing do?"
Nie Qingcheng caught it carefully.
"It's great as a hand warmer, it keeps the temperature constant."
Zhang Yan made up a story, "Or I can make you a necklace later, which can beautify your skin and slow down aging."
Actually, the biggest function of this thing is to create a small energy field that can stop bullets.
Explaining the principle to Nie Qingcheng was too troublesome; it was more practical to say that it could improve her appearance.
really.
Upon hearing that it could beautify the skin, Nie Qingcheng immediately gripped the crystal tightly, as if afraid of dropping it.
"Zhang Yan..."
Nie Qingcheng carefully put the crystal away, then suddenly turned around, wrapped her arms around Zhang Yan's neck, and hung herself on him.
There is no wind or snow here, only warm light and the reassuring sound of machinery running.
The thrill just now, and the huge gains to come.
The thrill of these dramatic ups and downs was sending her adrenaline soaring.
"What's wrong? Want to skate another lap?"
Zhang Yan joked.
"I can't skate anymore."
Nie Qingcheng buried her face in the crook of his neck, her voice soft and sweet, "But I'm hungry."
"Didn't we just eat roast whole lamb?"
"It's not because I'm hungry."
Nie Qingcheng raised her head, her peach blossom eyes were watery, and the beauty mark at the corner of her eye looked particularly alluring under the light.
She tiptoed and gently bit Zhang Yan's Adam's apple.
"I mean..."
"There's no one here, no snow, and there's even a bed..."
She pointed to the stone bed in the corner that looked like the one the leader of the Mohist school used to rest on. It was a bit hard, but big enough.
"Master Zhang."
Nie Qingcheng drew circles on his chest with her fingers. "You tamed that snake just now."
"Now, isn't it time to tame this one at home?"
Zhang Yan's throat tightened.
That vixen.
We were interrupted by a snake up there, and now that we're in this underground base, with the atmosphere so heated up, if we don't do something, it would be a disservice to the thousands of years of engineering quality.
"OK."
Zhang Yan picked her up and strode toward the stone bed.
"Since Mr. Nie has made the request, I will reluctantly agree to work overtime."
"However, the tuition fee will have to go up this time."
"I have plenty of money."
"It's free."
Zhang Yan placed her on the stone bed, leaned down, and looked into her bewildered and passionate eyes.
"I want you to only be able to act this way towards me from now on."
"overbearing."
Nie Qingcheng hooked her arms around his neck and offered her red lips.
"Well……"
In the hall, the tireless whirring of gears that had been turning for thousands of years seemed to soften.
Outside the hall.
The enormous bronze serpent remained faithfully guarding the entrance.
But those eyes, which were originally scarlet, had now turned into a deep blue, as if they were keeping watch for the newlyweds.
As for the blizzard outside?
Let it be.
Anyway, the spring scenery here is just right.
……
The next morning.
The snowstorm has stopped.
As the first rays of sunlight shone into Changbai Mountain, Manager Qian of Xueyun Hotel was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
Mr. Nie and his son-in-law didn't come back all night!
I can't get through on the phone!
If something goes wrong, he wouldn't even have enough to pay for it with his old life.
Just as he was preparing to organize a rescue team to go into the mountains to search for survivors.
hum-
A deep rumble suddenly came from the distant sky.
The black "Cheng Ying" was slowly flying out from the depths of the forest.
In the car.
Nie Qingcheng was wrapped in a men's windbreaker. Although her hair was a little messy and she wasn't wearing makeup, she looked radiant, which was obvious even to a blind person.
That's the charm of a woman who's been thoroughly nourished.
Zhang Yan.
He held the handlebars with one hand, a blade of grass of unknown origin dangling from his mouth, looking completely refreshed.
"Good morning, Uncle Qian."
The car stopped in front of the hotel, and Zhang Yan greeted them.
"Oh my god!" Manager Qian almost knelt down. "You're finally back! Where have you been all night?"
"Nowhere."
Zhang Yan jumped out of the car and helped Nie Qingcheng out. "We just went to the mountains to see a snake, and on the way..."
He paused, glanced at Nie Qingcheng who was beaming, and a wicked smile crept onto his lips.
"And incidentally, it added a new business to the family business."
"snake?"
Manager Qian looked completely bewildered. "Where did this snake come from in the dead of winter?"
"some."
Nie Qingcheng tightened her clothes, clutching the blue crystal tightly in her hand, her smile meaningful.
"It's very big, very thick, and it can breathe fire."
Manager Qian: ? ? ?
Although I couldn't understand it, something felt off.
"Alright, Uncle Qian, get us something to eat, we're starving."
Nie Qingcheng waved her hand, regaining her CEO aura, "Also, notify the senior executives of the legal and engineering departments to fly over immediately."
"I have a meeting."
"besides."
She stopped and looked back at the peaceful snow-capped mountains in the distance.
"Fence off all the land around here."
"From now on, this place will belong to the Nie family."
After saying that, she took Zhang Yan's arm, put on her snow boots, and walked out with an air of indifference.
Manager Qian was left standing there, bewildered in the wind.
Just because you see a snake... you can claim a piece of land?
He truly doesn't understand the world of the rich.
