Travel To The World Of Ca Li
145 Year Chuntao
'Outer... Duars...'
The colorful festivities of the night sky are decorated by fireworks blasts dazzling the vision.
The crowd crammed with an arch of laughter smiles that did not come off on each other's faces.
Among the crowd, there was only one person who did not really enjoy it. Judging from his sharp eyes tracing around as if he was ascertaining something.
Right next to him, a girl dressed in waitresses was seen beaming at the fireworks show that was gushing through the city square.
I don't know what he's thinking. He pulled hard the hand of his servant girl and quickly burst into the crowd.
"Miss, what's wrong?" Xiao Leng asked in surprise and gasped following the steps of the lady who was pulling tightly onto her arm. He slightly grimaced because jolt after jolt on his shoulder that felt painful due to colliding with many people.
"...." - ".The lady did not reply and continued to continue her steps. The sharpness on the pretty face was so flat, but, the radiance of her eyes twitched fiercely.
They stopped at one end of a dark and lonely road. "Wear it." A robe made of forest fox fur was thrown right at Xiao Leng.
"You're off guard, Xiao Leng." His voice flowed calm and peaceful. However, it was a reprimand from a leader who stabbed the subordinate.
Like re-awakened by common sense that should have. Xiao Leng pias-faced with a frown of guilt.
'Bronghi..' His body fell to his knees. "Please sentence for my negligence, Chairman." Speech vibrates.
His call changed because at this moment, he was dealing with the master who stood in a real position as the Qi Qi Chief of the Fox Division. Not as a Teacher Miss.
Xiu Qixuan glanced at Xiao Leng, "Wake up." His order.
Xiao Leng obediently stood up. His face still down did not dare to stare directly because it was covered by shame and also guilt.
"For this time I have no problem with your carelessness." His words are relaxed yet sharp.
"Yes?" Surprised Xiao Leng looked up part of her face with a puzzled frown. 'This easy time?', his inner self.
Because, as subordinates who have skills recognized reliable. A slack like this is a shame.
Xiu Qixuan pulled him away by entering the crowd to outwit the spies who were following them.
Without any doubt, Xiu Qixuan was already able to guess the mastermind who sent the spy. Who else if not Emperor Xia Qian Che who was always wary of him.
At this moment, Xiu Qixuan's goal was to make a secret meeting with the members of his Fox Division scattered in the Capital. He wanted to give the latest orders on their final plan.
The entire person within the Qi Residence was a subordinate that Xia Qian Che had placed in, they were unbelievable. It is not easy to infiltrate out, if it has entered the residence.
Therefore, in the middle of the journey, Xiu Qixuan deliberately outwitted the coachman on the grounds of childishness that is quite reasonable for a young girl to want to play in the city square.
But, of course, it would not be that easy to let go of the surveillance. Judging from the previous incident where the spy was still following. Even more so among the crowd.
Immediately Xiu Qixuan wrapped her body in a black robe then covered part of her face with a headscarf.
"But you're the one who's going to clean up the bugs, Xiao Leng." He said with a flat glance.
Hearing those words, Xiao Leng smiled excitedly. "Yes, I understand." Reply with tightly clenched hands.
It was his chance to correct the mistake. Previously he lost his sense of alert to the point of not realizing the existence of the spy.
"Well, now hurry up and put on your robe and follow me." His order.
********
'Cring..Cring..'
Two foreign girls slowly stepped in from behind the opening of the door. They look mysterious in oversized hairy robes that are purposely worn to mask identity.
"Welcome dear customer." A friendly greeting of the shopkeeper who was on duty to serve the request.
'Takk...' A gold coin was placed right in front of the shopkeeper. If more observed again, in the body of the gold coin there is a picture of a fox's head with a haughty face.
"Chuntao 145 years." It was Xiao Leng's voice that displayed a hint of a code of authority.
Beside him, stood Xiu Qixuan who was waiting flatly without doing anything.
The shopkeeper's face changed, he looked tense full of caution. "145-year-old Arak Chuntao is empty. Would you like to see another kind in our warehouse?" His words answered the secret code of their higher-ups.
"Yes, take us." Reply Xiao Leng.
The shopkeeper immediately directed them to walk through the corridor of the room towards the back shed.
Arriving in the warehouse which is composed of many bottles of wine that emit a intoxicating aroma. Judging from anywhere, it was still an ordinary warehouse without any particular privileges.
However, when the shopkeeper accidentally broke one of the wine bottles just above the hole between a small gap in the corner of the floor, 'Crack...' suddenly the floor was open displaying a staircase leading underground.
Slowly they stepped down the stairs under a faint light. The further down inside, the more visible light is lit up brightly with the air floating cold.
Featuring a lounge room with cushioned chairs. At the end of the room there is a heater that has not been lit.
"Hamba greeted respectfully, Chairman Qi." The shopkeeper immediately formed a fist in front of the chest and then slightly bent down.
"Yes, take care of your body." Xiu Qixuan replied by opening the hood of his robe.
"Hey, you! why hasn't the heater been turned on? The chairman will freeze to death here." Xiao Leng suddenly touched.
The shopkeeper was startled with agitation saying, "I'm sorry, Chairman. I'll immediately prepare all the necessities for you to rest comfortably."
Xiu Qixuan waved her hand forming a command gesture, "No need. Just turn on the warmers and go tell Commander Xiao Taoli to see me immediately." Her speech.
"Good." Answer the shopkeeper. As soon as the warm-up is turned on, he rushes off.
Xiu Qixuan threw herself on the cushion of the chair. 'Help...' A sigh rang out from the slit of his lips with his eyes tightly closed.
On the other hand, Xiao Leng looked at her face with a sad look of affection.
Somehow Xiao Leng could always feel that she was suffocated by an invisible hand.
Even breathing like most people - even looks difficult and in pain. Like a fish that cannot breathe on land.
He exuded a silent fatigue, not only of the body but also of the soul.
"What's wrong? Why look at me like that?" A voice surprised him. It was Xiu Qixuan who slowly opened her eyelids, revealing a brilliantly sharp black pearl ball.
"none. The chairman can take a moment of rest and relax." Xiao Leng said with a warm smile.
Xiu Qixuan snorted faintly. "It seems like I've long forgotten how to really relax." The reply.
"Huh, stop. Don't bullshit much." Continue again with cold.
He used to live to enjoy every breath of life. But, whether from when he lived to complete every task and responsibility that must be completed.
Even at every step it would feel heavy, he did not have time for many things. His request was only one, which was to quickly return home to where he should be.
