Chapter 147 Take a break



Chapter 147 Take a break

Master Cheng and Master Man had been busy all day and returned home covered in dust.

This is a task that requires persistent effort, and for Cheng Feng, time is not an issue.

Sooner or later, this underground warehouse will become an underground city, and then he will raise his arms and shout in the dark world.

Go, my treasure is right there.

Of course, the most likely outcome of doing so would be that a group of soldiers would come in with heavy machinery and dig up the underground city.

Huo Xin is on duty today; her cooking skills are better than Huo Yan's and Huo Wen's.

She loves to add chili peppers when cooking. She grew up in Changsha and is a true Hunan girl.

"Boss, I heard you bought beef, but I didn't see it in the kitchen."

Just then, Huo Xin ran into Cheng Feng, who was coming out of the room, and asked him in confusion.

"That meat has other uses; it's not for eating."

After saying that, Cheng Feng realized that this girl might have heard that he bought beef and therefore didn't go grocery shopping today.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Huo Xin hurriedly said goodbye to Cheng Feng and ran out to buy groceries.

"I think I should set up a breeding farm in the future, so it will be convenient to feed Xiaohua and Zhulong, and also convenient to eat myself."

After this blunder, Cheng Feng added another branch to his development plan.

That's how it is when you start building a force from scratch; plans can't keep up with changes.

That evening, Cheng Feng, Huo Ling, and Chen Wenjin ate beef hotpot while Cheng Feng chatted casually with Huo Ling and Chen Wenjin.

However, the two of them did not communicate with each other and were clearly still sulking.

After all the lights were turned off, Cheng Feng swaggered over and knocked on Chen Wenjin's door.

Huo Ling next door first sat up, then seemed to remember something and lay back down, almost tearing the fabric of the blanket she pulled on.

The next day, Cheng Feng lay on Huo Ling's bed, and the two had a deep and shallow conversation.

Finally, Huo Ling bit Cheng Feng and said:

"You, surnamed Cheng, really do keep your word. So you're already implementing 135 and 246, huh!"

"Actually, I can skip my day off and come with you guys on Sunday, how about it?"

"Go to hell you!"

The task of sharing a bed with my beloved is arduous and the road ahead is long. Cheng Feng secretly encouraged himself to keep exploring and seeking knowledge.

As the days went by, Cheng Feng would spend his time building warehouses and helping the Unloading Engineering Team transport supplies.

The three lines of power developed steadily, and Huo Ling and Chen Wenjin's sides were also benefiting from the favor equally.

Although both women harbored some resentment, they were gradually getting used to their current lives.

July, the height of summer, has arrived in the blink of an eye.

At Cheng Feng's suggestion, the family of three decided to take a few days off.

That very evening, Cheng Feng drove his jeep with his two wives to the Qarhan Salt Lake.

As for why we set off at night, it's because we had to bring Xiao Hua, this chubby tiger, with us.

This guy's physique has changed a lot.

A normal Siberian tiger at this age weighs at most 70 or 80 kilograms, and its body length, including its tail, does not exceed two meters.

But Xiao Hua, because she consumed the blood of the wind,

Now it weighs over 100 kilograms and is 1.5 meters long excluding its tail. When it stands up, it can reach Chen Wenjin's shoulder.

When it sat down in the car, the jeep swayed several times.

"When we first found Xiaohua, she was only this small, and now the car is almost overflowing with her!"

Huo Ling, sitting in the back seat, held Xiao Hua's big head and sighed as she stroked it.

"I'll take it back to Changbai Mountain sometime in the future; maybe we can even meet its mother there."

Chen Wenjin sat in the passenger seat. After these past few months, the atmosphere between the two women was no longer as stiff as it had been at the beginning.

“Our people have already settled down in Erdaobaihe Town, so we won’t be in such a mess when we go there again.”

The intelligence team has already achieved initial success during this period.

At Cheng Feng's request, informants were placed in Changbai Mountain, Guangxi, Beijing, Tibet, and Yimeng in Shandong.

This was only under the premise that Cheng Feng insisted on prioritizing stability.

If the secrecy aspect wasn't strictly controlled, Cheng Feng, with his financial resources, could easily set up even more areas.

However, it would be easy for other forces to notice, so it's better to proceed cautiously and develop safely underwater.

It is 50 kilometers from Daochaerhan Salt Lake in Golmud City.

Because some sections of the road were difficult to travel, it took the three people and one tiger more than two hours to reach their destination.

At this time, the salt lake was still under industrial control, and the core area was not open to the public.

The location chosen by Cheng Feng and his two companions was the edge of the salt lake.

As soon as the car door opened, Xiaohua rushed out and began to relieve herself in the darkness.

As soon as Huo Ling got out of the car, she felt a cool breeze blowing in her face, with a hint of saltiness.

"What's so fun about this lousy place? You can't see a single person for miles around."

Before coming, Huo Ling heard people say how beautiful the salt lake was, but as soon as she got off the bus, she felt like she had been ripped off.

There are few plants here, and the wind is strong and the temperature is low at night. I have never encountered such a terrible environment when I went down into the tomb.

"Stop complaining, we're already here, let's hurry up and set up the tent."

Cheng Feng opened his Ghost Eye and took out the tent used by the three of them.

The charm of the salt lake is not at night; it is after dawn that it truly shines.

All three were seasoned wilderness survivors, so setting up a tent was no problem for them.

After settling into his lodgings for the night, Chen Wenjin lit a fire, intending to boil some water to warm himself up.

"This wind is too cold. That's the downside of high altitudes; even in summer, the temperature doesn't rise much."

Huo Ling sat by the fire to warm herself, while also holding the chubby little flower in her arms.

Tigers are said to have a pure yang constitution, so even in the dead of winter, they can sleep soundly in the snow and feel no cold at all.

Huo Ling's decision to hug Xiao Hua for warmth was definitely a wise one.

Cheng Feng looked around to make sure there was no one within several kilometers, then said to the two women:

"I'm going to invite one of my brothers out to hang out later, so be prepared."

"Cheng Feng, are you out of your mind? Explain why your brother came to visit, and why we had to prepare ourselves mentally?"

Huo Ling looked at Cheng Feng with a strange expression, as if she was wondering if the man in front of her was really her husband and had been switched with someone else.

Faced with Huo Ling's doubts, Cheng Feng chose to prove himself through his actions.

After the Ghost Eye was activated, the Candle Dragon poked its head out from the void.

Chen Wenjin and Huo Ling stood up from the ground as if springs had been inserted.

The two jogged over to Cheng Feng's side, looking at the Zhulong that kept emerging from the void with shocked expressions.

When its enormous body, exceeding 100 meters in length, was fully revealed...

Chen Wenjin exclaimed, "You're becoming more and more inhuman, carrying around such a terrifying thing."

"This...this can't be the Candle Dragon that Hei Xiazi was talking about!"

Huo Ling came to her senses and asked Cheng Feng with a slightly excited expression.

Cheng Feng beckoned to Zhulong and explained softly:

"That's right, I was able to escape from underground thanks to it back in the Qinling Mountains."

At this moment, Zhulong slowly approached.

At this distance, the two women saw more details, including the Candle Dragon's single eye, which flowed red like magma.

And the scales on its body are neatly arranged.

"Since the terrain here is spacious, let's do something fun tonight."
