Chapter 191 I am preparing for the exam and preparing to bake sweet potatoes
In the tunnel, Sang Yu led the way in front, and everyone else followed behind him.
Jiang Nanxi was holding a flashlight to illuminate the area. The nearby Earthly Evil Star Formation had long been broken by Wei Ling, so they did not encounter any danger along the way.
Soon, after passing through a complex network of tunnels, they arrived at an empty cave.
This cave is composed of three connected caves. The inside of the cave seems like a secret place in another world, with clusters of stalagmites, stone curtains hanging down, and stalactites of various shapes.
With a "click" sound.
When Jiang Nanxi walked into the cave, she heard a noise under her feet. She looked down and saw a lot of gravel on the ground.
She looked up at the nearby dissolved limestone. Many parts had smooth cut surfaces, which did not look like they were caused by nature, but rather by human cutting and excavation.
You can still hear the slight sound of flowing water, which indicates that there should be an underground river behind the limestone of the cave.
“This place is really interesting.”
Liu Qingyan's voice came, "The acupoints of the three caves are actually connected into a loop. They are located under the Tusi Mansion halfway up the Ailao Mountain, overlooking the mountains and surrounded by underground water dragons."
Lu Jiaqi didn't understand again, "What do you mean?"
Jiang Nanxi: "This place is so nice, warm in winter and cool in summer, and the feng shui is great. It's a great place to hang yourself."
Lu Jiaqi looked at her with a question mark on his face, "Are you playing with abstraction?"
Jiang Nanxi: "No, seriously, if you die and fall, you can be buried right here. It's a great place for Feng Shui. A thousand years later, you can crawl out and become Ultraman, and even save the world. Do you want to try?"
Lu Jiaqi's mouth twitched. "You mean this is a good place for burial? Then just say it straight out. Why are you being so abstract?"
Jiang Nanxi: "If I don't engage in abstraction, what else should I engage in? Can you handle a beating?"
Lu Jiaqi was speechless. "Do you really have to talk like that? It makes me lose the desire to communicate with you."
Liu Qingyan suddenly spoke up, "How could that be? Don't you think this kind of life is interesting? I've always felt that people who engage in abstraction are very clever. Unlike pure madness, abstraction requires quick reaction and the ability to pick up on gags, as well as a vast reservoir of internet knowledge and just the right amount of rhetoric. Those who engage in abstraction are simply geniuses."
Lu Jiaqi:?
Jiang Nanxi nodded. "Yes, if you like to play with abstractions, then when you encounter danger, you won't just shout 'Ahhh, help!' You can also shout 'There's an earthquake, S ran away, and I'm still tied to a cage, who can come and save me?' Compared to the former, the latter is more likely to attract other people's attention."
Lu Jiaqi:?
Liu Qingyan agreed and added, "Playing with abstraction can also make life less troublesome. For example, if your family members are always asking about your career development and you don't know how to answer, you can just say that you are studying for an exam recently. That way, no one will think you are an uneducated rich second-generation."
Lu Jiaqi frowned and said, "What should I say if they ask me what I'm taking the exam for? I've been a poor student since I was a child. I can't learn anything. Am I supposed to buy a diploma?"
Liu Qingyan: "You said you were roasting sweet potatoes."
Lu Jiaqi:?
Jiang Nanxi: "You could also say you're grilling starch sausages, depending on what you want to eat today."
Lu Jiaqi:?
[Haha ...
[Really, the wedding banquet couple is too compatible! I suggest the Civil Affairs Bureau come over! ]
[That's great! I don't have to worry about my family asking me about my civil service exam anymore. If they do, I can just say I'm already preparing for it!]
"You said you were roasting sweet potatoes, so I'll tell my family I'm roasting cold noodles."
Lu Jiaqi immediately distanced himself from the two men. "I feel like if you guys talk like that, you'll be arrested as a psychopath!"
Jiang Nanxi and Liu Qingyan walked towards him.
Lu Jiaqi retreated again, "Alright, stop talking! I definitely won't be led astray by you!"
The two men looked at him with regret.
Jiang Nanxi was about to speak again when a weak voice suddenly came from the limestone wall next to him, "There's an earthquake, S ran away, and I'm still tied up in a cage. Can someone come and save me?"
Jiang Nanxi:?
Others:?
audience:!
Jiang Nanxi's expression froze for a moment. He looked at the rock wall and said, "Why do I hear someone calling for help?"
Liu Qingyan smashed the rock wall with one punch. "Since you've said that, the situation must be very urgent. Let's save them!"
With a loud bang.
The rock wall was like a broken wooden board, and Liu Qingyan smashed it into pieces with a light hammer.
The rubble fell down with a clatter, covering the ground and revealing another space inside.
I saw that there was a smaller space inside the rock wall. The ground inside was covered with formations drawn with cinnabar pens. In the center of the formation was a dark and gloomy wooden coffin.
But everyone's attention was first attracted by the things on the coffin.
On top of the coffin was a 50 cm x 50 cm square iron cage, inside which was a wooden shrine, but there was no statue of deity inside the shrine.
“There really is a cage.”
Lu Jiaqi couldn't help but gasp in surprise. "I thought you two were just playing a trick on me. I didn't expect someone would actually say something like that in danger."
Song Shixing frowned and said, "But where are the people? There's only a coffin and an empty shrine in a cage. There's no one in here."
Lu Jiaqi paused, his expression changing slightly, "Oh, yeah, then what was that talking just now?"
Jiang Nanxi stroked his chin and thought for a moment. "It said it was locked in a cage and asked me to rescue it. That should be the thing on the shrine inside the cage, but there's nothing inside the shrine. What's on it?"
"Could it be..." Lu Jiaqi's face turned pale. He opened his lips slightly and said cautiously, "A ghost?"
"I'm not a ghost, I'm a ghost with inverted feet."
The voice suddenly came from inside the cave.
The cave is quite large, and when the sound is heard, it is accompanied by an echo, making it impossible to tell where it comes from.
"Are you the inverted foot fairy?"
Lu Jiaqi screamed, "How is this possible? Doesn't the inverted-foot fairy exist? The gods are all disguised as the Ailao King!"
The voice sneered, "Who said I don't exist? I helped that bastard King Ailao do so many important things for him. What's wrong with me taking away his treasures?
After he turned into a ghost, he actually wanted to take back the treasures. He almost beat me to death and trapped me here!
Now I am only a remnant of my soul. Please release my shrine from the cage! If I can leave here, I can give you the treasure!"
Jiang Nanxi: "Is Zundu fake?"
The inverted foot fairy: "Zundu."
Jiang Nanxi: "Where is the treasure? Let me see if it's real first. What if you're lying to us?"
The inverted foot fairy: "It's inside the coffin. Come in and take a look. And by the way, help me unlock this broken cage!"
Jiang Nanxi walked in, threw the cage on the ground, and opened the coffin.
but.
There was no treasure inside, only an old skeleton dressed in exquisite and gorgeous shroud!
At this time, the formation near the coffin also lit up with a dazzling red light, forming layers of barriers that directly locked Jiang Nanxi next to the coffin.
