Chapter 253 - What Ancient Tomb Could Have Such a Magical Medicine?

Wu Yiyao walked to her side and handed her a glass of juice before saying, “There are many people gathered outside. I didn’t notice.”

Chu Luo nodded and took the fruit juice from her hand. She took a sip and continued eating.

After eating, she said to everyone, “I’ll leave first.”

After saying that, she stood up and prepared to walk towards the door.

Tang Zhiyun said immediately, “Junior, let’s go together or you will be surrounded.”

The others also stood up and expressed their intention to leave with her.

Chu Luo nodded. Everyone packed up and carried the unfinished food, intending to bring it back to the dormitory to eat, before walking out.

She swiped her card and went out. Indeed, there was a large group of people guarding outside.

When they saw the group of people come out, they immediately became excited.

“They’re out! They’re out! Ahhh…”

There were very few Computer Students who chased after celebrities, but they had a fanatical admiration for the incredible figures in the computer field.

During the holidays, they didn’t go anywhere. They squatted in front of the computer every day, their mood fluctuating with the ups and downs of the competition.

“The Taiji Eight Trigrams Defense Network that you guys established this time is too cool!”

It was obvious that no one knew that this defensive net had been built by Chu Luo.

“Seniors, good job.”

“Chu Luo’s final pursuit of the hackers was too cool!”

…

Everyone was getting more and more excited.

Tang Zhiyun gestured a pause at them.

“Everyone, be quiet.”

They were already tired, and Tang Zhiyun’s voice couldn’t suppress those people’s excitement.

Chu Luo glanced at the surrounding people and quickly exuded a powerful aura. She said in a low voice, “Shut up, all of you!”

Actually, her voice wasn’t loud, but these five words pierced everyone’s ears.

Everyone instantly fell silent.

Chu Luo said, “If you have endless passion, go online and play a few games. We’re going back to rest. Move aside.”

With that, she walked down the stairs.

Everyone subconsciously made way.

Hu Yong looked at Chu Luo, who was striding forward, and was a little surprised. “Junior Chu’s aura is simply too strong!”

“Hehe, our junior is just that cool.”

After saying that, Xie Minghai immediately followed.

After everyone had walked for a while, Hu Yong asked Chu Luo, “Junior Chu, how are you going to spend the next few days? Why don’t we form a team to play?”

Chu Luo looked at her phone to see if there was a message. Without looking up, she said, “I’m not free.”

“Why not? Isn’t it the holidays?”

“I need to do research with Professor Tang.”

“…”

Xie Minghai patted Hu Yong, who was immediately rendered speechless. He said sympathetically, “Brother, why do you have to embarrass yourself?”

“…”

Other than using her phone when she went back last night, Chu Luo had been storing her phone in a locker outside the technology building. When she opened it now, she realized that there were a few missed calls.

They were from Chu Zhengyang.

Chu Luo sneered and skipped them.

At this moment, Li Yan called.

Chu Luo swiped the answer button and placed the phone by her ear. She heard Li Yan’s low and magnetic voice. “Luoluo, I still have something to attend to outside. I can’t rush back for now.”

Chu Luo nodded and thought for a while before saying, “I want to go home and stay today.”

Li Yan: “Okay. I’ll send someone to pick you up. You can sleep for a while.”

Chu Luo replied, “Mm.”

Li Yan was obviously very busy. The two of them hung up.

At this moment, everyone had already reached the passageway.

Wu Yiyao asked Chu Luo, “Little Chu, are you going back to the old district?”

Chu Luo nodded.

Wu Yiyao: “Why don’t I send you back first?”

“No need. A car will pick me up later.”

Just as Chu Luo finished speaking, someone quickly ran over from the side fork. It was Wang Mingtao.

“Sister Chu, Seniors, ha…”

After Wang Mingtao ran over, he propped his hands on his knees and panted heavily.

“Say, Mingtao, why did you come over only now?”

Xie Minghai didn’t know that his father had injured his leg. He walked over and patted his shoulder. “What did you do? Why are you in such a hurry?”

“I just came back from the suburbs.” Wang Mingtao finally managed to catch his breath a little before saying, “I’ve been going crazy these past few days. I’ve been going to the suburbs every day, with buyers running around. I even took the time to watch your competition when I was resting.”

“What are you doing? Did Uncle Wang ask you to give up your studies and take over the family business?”

“No, my father sprained his waist. He’s resting at home.”

Tang Zhiyun asked, “Is Uncle Wang okay?”

“He’s already fine. The ointment Sister Chu gave my father is especially effective, but his waist is sprained, after all. He’s been busy these past few days, so I want him to rest at home.”

Wu Yiyao said, “He should indeed rest, but it’s been hard on you these past few days.”

Wang Mingtao scratched his head and said in embarrassment, “It’ll only be for a few days. I’ll be free when school reopens.”

Tang Zhiyun thought for a moment and said, “Why don’t I help you tomorrow?”

“Really?” When Wang Mingtao heard this, he was so touched that his eyes were watery. “Senior Tang, I need you so much. Tomorrow at six… No, I’ll pick you up at seven. I’ll get my father to pay you triple the salary.”

“Yo, how can I miss such a good deal? I’ll go too,” Xie Minghai said.

Then, Yu Lei and Xu Qingfeng also expressed their willingness to help.

Wang Mingtao was so touched that tears welled up in his eyes. “Seniors, you’re my saviors. Boohoo… I’m so touched.”

Chu Luo looked at his exaggerated appearance and the corners of her lips twitched. She said, “Tell Uncle Wang when you go back that even if his waist doesn’t hurt anymore, he has to continue applying the ointment. This is beneficial to his waist.”

“Okay, okay.” Wang Mingtao smiled and nodded. Then, he said, “Sister Chu, when you come back from Ocean City, let’s find a time to celebrate.”

“We’ll talk about it later. I’ll leave first.”

Chu Luo walked towards the graduate student dormitory.

Chu Luo had just reached the turn near the dormitory building when she saw Chu Zhengyang waiting for her with a thermos in his hand.

Chu Luo narrowed her eyes and walked over without slowing down.

“Luoluo.”

When Chu Zhengyang saw Chu Luo, he immediately revealed a kind smile. “I heard from Xueying that you were participating in the International Cybersecurity Competition these past few days. You definitely haven’t eaten or slept well these past few days. I got the housekeeper to make you some pigeon soup today. Drink it while it’s hot and sleep well.”

Chu Luo listened to his words of concern and looked at the bag in his hand but didn’t take it.

Disappointment flashed across Chu Zhengyang’s eyes when he saw her reaction. However, he didn’t put away the smile on his face. He took out a bank card and handed it to her.

“I said before that I would reward you for getting into a university. There are 500,000 yuan in here. Take it and buy whatever you want.”

Chu Luo didn’t even look at the bank card. “I don’t need it.”

After saying that, she turned to open the door.

“Luoluo,” Chu Zhengyang said in a tired tone. “Your aunt and Tingting are getting worse and worse after being tortured by the Gu poison. I know you don’t want to hear me talk about them, but I want to tell you that regardless of whether you forgive them or not, I’m still your uncle.

“I will go out in a few days to find the antidote for the Gu poison for them. I don’t know when I will come back. This money isn’t much. Treat it as funding for your university studies. Take it.”

Chu Luo suddenly stopped and turned to look at him. “Find the antidote? What medicine are you looking for?”

Seeing that Chu Luo was willing to talk to him, Chu Zhengyang was delighted and said, “I plan to find an ancient tomb. There are herbs in that ancient tomb that can cure all poisons. As long as we find them, they will be saved.”

When Chu Luo heard this, she lowered her eyes. A sharp glint flashed across them. Then, she looked up and asked, “What ancient tomb would have such a magical medicine?”

“It’s a legendary ancient tomb. There are not only many magical things inside that ancient tomb.”

“That ancient tomb you went to look for last time? Or rather, that ancient tomb you and my father went down to 18 years ago?”

Chu Zhengyang looked at Chu Luo, who looked especially calm. He was stunned for a moment before nodding. “Yes.”

Chu Luo continued to ask, “Have you found the location of that ancient tomb?”

“I heard some news… Regardless of whether the news is accurate, I plan to take a look.”

“Where?”

“Over at Y Province.”

When Chu Luo heard this, the corners of her lips curled up into a mocking smile. She looked him in the eye and said, “You’re a good husband and a good father, but… you’re not a good uncle.”

“I…”

“I told you, I’m already an adult. You don’t have to worry about me from now on. Neither do I need to use your money.” At this point, Chu Luo turned around to open the courtyard door. As she did so, she said, “I wish you success.”

Chu Zhengyang looked at Chu Luo’s back and opened his mouth. He seemed to hesitate for a while before saying, “Luoluo, I have something that your parents left behind. If you want it, I’ll give it to you.”

Chu Luo asked indifferently, “Where?”

“In the villa in Ocean City.” Chu Zhengyang tightened his grip on the thermos and said, “If you want it, I’ll go around there to prepare it for you before I leave. You can go back and get it yourself.”

Chu Luo nodded coldly and pushed open the door to the small courtyard.
