Chapter 317 Entrance to the Ancient Tomb
Chapter 317 Entrance to the Ancient Tomb
Seeing this scene before her, Tang Xiaorui's eyes suddenly reddened.
Looking at Lin Feng's retreating figure, at the six silent, submissive beasts, and at the fearful and awe-inspiring expressions of the surrounding tourists, she suddenly said proudly to her sister:
"Sister, look! My boyfriend, he didn't come into the world bathed in light, but just by standing there, the light has to go around him!"
Tang Xiaofu did not refute.
[Ding~ Tang Xiaofu's favorability towards the host +5]
Current favorability rating: 83/100
Lin Feng heard it.
He didn't turn around, but a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
For him, this number was more significant than the six ferocious beasts behind him combined.
Because that's Tang Xiaofu!
It seems that in the face of absolute strength, even someone as aloof and distant as her can set aside her prejudices, reassess, and then... give a new score.
This feeling is even more exhilarating than taming a Siberian tiger!
"Next stop, the baboon exhibit," Tang Xiaofu said. "The entrance to the ancient tomb is over there."
Lin Feng nodded.
Tang Xiaofu got into the driver's seat, while Lin Feng and Tang Xiaorui sat in the back.
Tang Xiaorui hooked her arm around Lin Feng's and naturally rested her head on his shoulder.
The admiration in his eyes had deepened even more than before.
Behind the sightseeing bus, six enormous shadows followed silently.
There were no shouts, no commotion.
The only sounds were the extremely low footsteps and the soft rustling of wheels rolling over the road.
The procession was silent, and a sense of oppression permeated the air, like a dark cloud slowly moving along the ground.
........................
Soon, the sightseeing bus stopped at the entrance of the special passage outside the baboon exhibit area.
Tang Xiaofu turned off the power and pulled the handbrake.
"arrive."
Lin Feng stepped aside to help Tang Xiaorui out of the car.
Tang Xiaorui didn't reach out. Instead, she opened her arms, tilted her head back, and looked at him with bright, sparkling eyes—it was a gesture of wanting a hug.
Lin Feng shook his head helplessly.
He leaned forward, put one arm around her waist and back, and slipped the other under her legs to lift her up from her seat.
As she got out of the car and landed, Lin Feng gently patted her buttocks.
Tang Xiaorui smiled secretly, clearly enjoying this intimate gesture.
Tang Xiaofu stood at the entrance of the passage and witnessed this scene; her eyelashes trembled very slightly.
There was a small red patch behind her ear, like rouge that had accidentally smudged, clearly indicating that she was thinking about the scene where Lin Feng mistakenly photographed her last night.
The four members of the Fang Squad were already waiting at the agreed location.
The four men looked past Lin Feng and landed on the six ferocious beasts.
Luo Lei's eyelid twitched.
He had been at the zoo for six or seven years, but had never seen anything like it.
Six apex predators from different regions, with different habits, and even natural enemies, quietly gathered behind a human, without any hostility or disturbance among them.
This is neither biologically nor common sense.
This doesn't even align with his understanding of the world.
Lu Ye's right hand reached for the tactical knife at his lower back in a split second, unnoticed by anyone.
Qin Huo'er saw Lu Ye's actions.
She didn't stop them, because at the same moment, her own right hand quietly moved closer to the tactical waist pack on her side.
There is a small high-voltage stun gun there, enough to instantly take down an adult male wild boar.
Wang Chui didn't move; he stood there like a real rock.
His gaze fell on the brown bear—a colossal creature he estimated to weigh at least 800 kilograms, lying quietly.
His thumb rubbed very lightly against his side.
Four pairs of eyes.
Four pairs of guarded hands.
Four bodies, taut like fully drawn bows.
Tang Xiaofu raised her hand, gesturing for them to relax:
"Don't be nervous, they listen to Lin Feng completely and won't attack anyone."
The four of them showed no signs of relaxing.
Lin Feng raised his right hand casually, as if greeting a friend.
"Sit still."
The Siberian tiger's ears twitched, its massive body slowly sank, and then it neatly tucked its two front paws together in front of it.
Like a giant orange cat.
The wolf king raised its head, tilted its head, and then put its two front paws together, resting its chin on the back of its paws.
Like a husky waiting to be petted on the head.
The black bear yawned.
Its massive paw, large enough to dent a steel plate, was clumsily trying to mimic the posture of a Siberian tiger.
But she's just too fat.
No matter how hard it tried, the front paws couldn't be tucked together, and in the end, they were barely stacked into a somewhat asymmetrical bear paw mountain.
……
The entrance to the baboon enclosure was deathly silent.
Luo Lei's expression froze.
Lu Ye's pupils dilated slightly, with faint signs of bloodshot veins popping out at the edges.
Qin Huo'er's tightly pursed lips parted slightly, and Wang Chui's towering body swayed.
No one spoke, no one blinked.
Six apex predators at the top of the food chain—
It's doing those adorable, well-behaved things that only human pets do, waiting for praise.
"...So cute~"
Tang Xiaorui broke the silence first, her voice soft and gentle. She reached out to touch the wolf king's chin, which was resting on the back of its paws, but Lin Feng gently pressed her wrist down.
"Don't touch them. No matter how cute they look right now, they are still apex predators."
Tang Xiaorui stuck out her tongue and obediently withdrew her hand, but she still couldn't help tilting her head, her eyes fixed on those clumsy, cute beasts.
Lin Feng met the complex gazes of the four Fang Squad members: "Can you all relax now?"
Luo Lei was the first to recover, nodding emphatically: "I'm relieved, I'm relieved... Mr. Lin, your abilities have truly overturned my understanding!"
Tang Xiaofu spoke up at the right moment: "Alright, let's not waste any time, let's go in quickly."
As she spoke, she turned and walked towards the special passage outside the baboon exhibit area. The entrance to the passage was equipped with a heavy iron gate with a warning sign that read "Exhibition area under maintenance, entry prohibited," which was obviously set up in advance by the Fang Squad.
Luo Lei strode forward, took out his key, and opened the iron gate:
"Director Tang, the area has been cleared out, and all the baboons have been moved to the temporary feeding area."
Tang Xiaofu nodded and stepped over the threshold.
Lin Feng, holding Tang Xiaorui's hand, followed her inside.
Behind them, six enormous shadows followed silently, their claws landing on the ground without a sound.
The Fang Squad brought up the rear.
After bypassing a biomimetic vegetation barrier, a low mountain suddenly appears before you.
The dark green mountain has a rough, cracked surface, with vines hanging down from the top like a curtain, covering most of the rock face.
Lin Feng frowned slightly. Sure enough, the entrance to the ancient tomb was located in this low mountain.
He looked up and surveyed the entire hill, trying to find a trace of an entrance in the cracks of the rocks, but no matter how he looked at it, the hill seemed to be a naturally formed mountain, with intact rocks and no trace of human excavation.
Tang Xiaofu walked towards the low hill, her gaze landing on a rock.
The rocks there are a slightly darker color than the surrounding rocks, and there is a faint bas-relief on them. After a hundred years of wind and rain erosion, the outline of the relief has become very blurred.
But Lin Feng recognized him at a glance—
It was a monkey head pattern, with the monkey head slightly lowered and a ring in its mouth. The lines were simple and ancient, and although blurry, one could still see a bit of liveliness.
Tang Xiaofu turned around and looked at Lin Feng:
"I'm about to open the tomb entrance. Once I've completed all the steps and the tomb entrance appears, you can summon the Snow Mountain White Eagle."
Lin Feng met her gaze and nodded solemnly: "Understood."
