Chapter 2974
Fade ignored Egon's fierce gaze and looked at Yansy. "If you need a guide, I can do it." "You?" Yansy was slightly surprised.
Egon narrowed his eyes and asked, "Are you also a hunter?"
Fade shook his head and replied, "No, I'm not, but I'm quite familiar with this area."
"Really?" Yansy was a little excited.
Egon thought of something and doubted in a low voice. "Do you have any other intentions? Be honest!"
Fade spread his hands and admitted, "Of course."
"What is it?" Egon took a step forward with a gloomy face.
Yansy's expression became serious too.
Fade smiled and said, "You don't have to be so nervous. I have no interest in inquiring about your matters. I just want to make some money."
"You two look like rich people, so I..."
While he spoke, he rubbed his fingers.
Egon squinted his eyes and asked, "How much do you want?"
Fade rolled his eyes and stretched out his fingers. "10,000."
Egon snorted and shrieked, "10,000 yuan for showing the way? You are a greedy man!"
"Both of you are rich. Such an amount should not be a problem to you." Fade smiled.
Egon warned, "Fine. However, you must take us to the right place, otherwise, you won't get a penny."
Fade patted his chest and promised, "No problem. I promise to find the right spot. Otherwise, I will not take a single cent."
Seeing this, Egon turned to Yansy and casted an inquiring look.
Yansy looked back at a woman in her thirties and asked, "Herna, what do you think?"
Herna sized Fade up with a serious expression.
In the end, she mentioned, "I don't think this kid is that simple. Perhaps, he has other motives. Also, Egon's men were knocked down by him, which means that he is not bad at fighting and has some skills. I suspect that he may have other purposes."
After hearing that, Yansy nodded and agreed with her.
Egon came over and chimed in, "It doesn't matter if he has another motive. No matter how powerful he is, he is just a kid from a small town. If he dares to make any move, we can kill him right away."
"We've been in the mountains for two days. It's hard to find the place quickly without a guide."
"Furthermore, the news is going to be made public. If we don't hurry, more and more people will come, and our chances will be slim!"
Hearing Egon's words, Yansy's face changed and nodded. "That makes sense."
Egon smiled confidently and continued, "In that case, let's agree to his terms!"
After that, he walked towards Fade and said, "Kid, 10,000 yuan only if you successfully lead the way and find the place. If you dare to lie to us, don't blame us for what's next."
Fade nodded quickly. "Sure, please rest assured."
"Let's go!" Egon waved his hand.
Fade glanced at Yunita behind him, waved goodbye, then joined Egon and Yansy's team and walked into the forest.
Looking at Fade's back, Yunita could
not help but clench her fists and whispered to herself, "Brother Chen has saved me and is now taking my place risking his life to be their guide. Brother Chen is my lifesaver. I must repay him."
In the team, Fade got the map from Egon.
After a careful look, he found that the map had clearly marked the location of his house.
However, the drawing of the map should have been three years ago.
Presently, the terrain had changed a lot, which was why Egon and Yansy had wandered in the mountains for two days, but still could not find the place.
He pretended to read the map while thinking silently.
"The position was marked on the
map three years ago. Although it was not very accurate, the general direction was correct. This means that someone had marked our position at that time and secretly attacked us."
"Judging from the news earlier, at first, there was a ban on finding my treasure, but now, the situation seems to have loosened up and the map has been leaked. It seems that the situation has changed."
Fade thought to himself.
Egon was a little impatient. "Kid, you've been staring at the map for a long time. Do you know the way or not?"
Fade replied, "Mr. Lu, is the map new? It seems that the area has changed a lot. I need some time to identify things."
"It's a map from three years ago," Egon replied casually.
"Three years ago? It has changed a lot. I need some time to find it," Fade said.
"Can you do it, kid? If you can't, I'll find someone else as soon as possible," Egon fumed.
Fade said calmly, "Mr. Lu, don't worry. I'll find it. Besides, you're here to find Master Chen's treasure. Many people are watching you."
"How do you know?" Egon was nervous and he glared at him.
Even Yansy narrowed her eyes and looked at him.
Fade quickly waved his hand and added, "Mr. Lu, Miss Xu, you mentioned Master Chen just now. Besides, many foreign martial artists have come to our area recently all for Master Chen's treasures it's easy to guess."
"Many people have come. Did anyone manage to find them?" Yansy asked.
Fade shook his head and said, "Most people just heard the rumors and came here in a hurry to try their luck. They did not manage to find anything." "However, Mr. Lu and Miss Xu, you have this map in your hands, which is much better than ordinary people. However, I wonder where you get this map from. Is it accurate or not?"Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Fade asked tentatively.
Egon casually said, "Don't worry, kid. The map is definitely accurate. It depends on whether you know the way or not."
As for Tansy, she stared at Fade for a while and said, "It's getting late. Let's get moving!"
Fade did not push them further. He took the group of people to stroll in the mountains for a while. Along the way, he tentatively asked some questions. However, he did not gain much.
Finally, just when Egon was almost impatient, Fade finally brought the two people to a valley.
This valley was where Fade's cabin was, but it was just the border. After his disguise, even if they walked in, they would not notice much.
"It should be here." Fade pointed at the map and said.
"Really? Why is there nothing? Did you make a mistake?" Egon glanced at him distrustfully.
Before Fade could explain, Yansy squinted her eyes and muttered, "It should be here. The energy is a bit special."
