Chapter 42: Searching for the Ancient Tomb



The little prince was confused: "...Master, do you mean that my girlfriend came to my city to see me?"

An Rugu looked away, a trace of pity flashed across her eyes: "What I mean is - your online lover has been by your side from the beginning to the end."

She had seen people being cheated in online romances, but she had never seen anyone being cheated so badly. In a sense, this little prince was even more miserable than the three college students she had met last time who were cheated by their roommates.

[I remember that last time the three college students came to have their fortunes told, the anchor also told them that their online lovers were far away and close at hand. I suspect that the little prince's friends also deceived him.]

[Hahahaha, that was a famous scene among famous scenes in the anchor's live broadcast career. I will remember the confused expressions of those three people for the rest of my life.]

[Plus one, and the person you are dating online is likely to be a man, after all, men understand men best. ]

The little prince caught a glimpse of these comments out of the corner of his eye and was shocked. The whole world became bizarre.

He had watched An Rugu's live broadcast and remembered the three college students. She had indeed said, "They are far away, yet so close at hand."

He was drinking water when he saw this clip, but he burst into laughter and his stomach hurt.

Those three college students looked like fools in his eyes.

But now the clown is actually himself?

The little prince couldn't believe it. He swallowed his saliva and said with a glimmer of hope: "Did she tell me a fake permanent address?"

If it was just a lie about where he lived, he could accept it.

Seeing that he was deceiving himself, An Rugu sighed slightly and simply pointed it out directly: "The person you are dating online is actually... your relative."

The Little Prince: “???”

Audience in the live broadcast room: “???”

The little prince's face turned from white to red and then to blue, as if a seasoning plate had been overturned. He almost fell off his chair. The scene in front of him was crumbling, and he felt dizzy and incoherent.

"How is this possible? This is impossible, it must be fake!"

How could the girlfriend he was dating be his relative?

But he thought again, there was no need for An Rugu to lie to him, so he spoke tremblingly: "Who is it?"

An Rugu thought of the result she had just calculated, and a subtle look flashed in her eyes: "Do you have a second aunt?"

"Yes," said the little prince at once.

The little prince had said before that his grandfather had five sons and two daughters, making the family very large.

Thinking of this, his pupils shrank inch by inch, and he was dumbfounded: "Is it what I think?"

His aunt has been divorced for many years, has only one son, and her family is average. An Rugu couldn't have mentioned his aunt for no reason. Did his aunt deliberately lie to him for money?

[Oh my goodness, my online crush is actually my aunt! ]

[Sure enough, love turns into family affection in the end. 】

[A young man was in an online relationship, but unfortunately he was deceived. He had always wanted to meet someone, but the person he met turned out to be his aunt. It would have been better if they had not met. Meeting is worse than missing each other.]

[You can't think like that. In ancient times, "niang" meant "mother", so "nv" means "aunt", which is very reasonable.]

【Enterprise-level understanding hahahaha. 】

The audience in the live broadcast room burst into laughter. As the saying goes, people's joys and sorrows are not the same. The little prince was about to explode.

When he thought that the person he had been dating for many years was his aunt, he wanted to spiral up to the sky and disappear from this world. Even if this was not his fault, as a younger generation, he was still weak. How should he face other relatives?

Fortunately, An Rugu took a sip of tea and changed the subject: "Does your second aunt have a son?"

The little prince recovered from his shock and nodded quickly: "Yes, my cousin is less than 20 years old, and I have a good relationship with him."

"He's your online crush!"

The Little Prince: “???”

Audience in the live broadcast room: “???”

[My cousin actually likes me and has been deceiving me online for three years.]

【This brotherhood is truly touching. 】

[Hello, is this German orthopedics? We have a pair of cousins ​​​​who need treatment.]

The little prince didn't care about the comments and was filled with rage.

If it was his aunt, he didn't know how to deal with it.

If it's a cousin, then it would be easy.

He rushed out with his cell phone and took a bus to a residential area, looking in a hurry.

"Knock, knock, knock! Aunt, open the door quickly!"

"Who is it?" A middle-aged woman opened the door and smiled when she saw the little prince coming. "Why are you here? Have you had dinner? If not, why don't you have something to eat at my place? Xiao Chen is also at home, so you can chat with me."

She looked intently at the little prince, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared. Hey, why did her nephew have a gloomy face?

Under the middle-aged woman's puzzled gaze, the little prince ground his back teeth with a creaking sound. The black aura around him was as thick as substance. He smiled with his face but not his heart: "Xiao Chen is at home, that's good. Is he in the room? I was just looking for him to talk to him about something."

"He's here, just go ahead." The middle-aged woman said enthusiastically.

The little prince walked to the door of his cousin's room with ease, pressed the handle, and opened the door with a click.

His cousin was sitting in front of the computer desk with his back to him, wearing headphones and playing an online shooting game, his eyes fixed on the character opposite him.

He was so absorbed in the fierce battle in front of him that he didn't hear anyone open the door.

Seeing him like this, the little prince gradually calmed down for some reason.

He learned from An Rugu that Xiao Chen was his online love interest, but he had no evidence.

When he thought of this, he suddenly remembered what Si Shui Liu Nian did when he was watching the live broadcast.

An idea suddenly occurred to him, and he picked up his phone, opened the WeChat of his online love interest, and made a WeChat call.

Amid the surprised gazes of countless people, my cousin's cell phone rang immediately afterwards.

My cousin turned his head to look at the phone at hand, a little impatient because he was having so much fun playing games.

But after thinking about it, he picked up the phone and hung up the call instead of answering it.

Then he squeezed his throat, and the original boyish voice suddenly turned into a delicate girlish voice, and sent a voice message: "Baby, don't disturb me, I'm playing games."

The Little Prince: “???”

Audience in the live broadcast room: “???”

[The fake voice boss is actually next to me! 】

[It's so tight… My phantom limb is hard. 】

[Hahaha, I even saved money on the voice changer. ]

The little prince was so angry that he couldn't even hold the phone. He simply threw the phone on the table next to him, stretched out his big hand, grabbed his cousin's collar and pulled it hard.

My cousin was suddenly suspended in mid-air, at a loss, not knowing what was going on.

When he turned around and saw his cousin, his pupils suddenly shrank: "Fuck, why are you here?!"

My cousin said sinisterly, "Xiao Sun, I'm here to marry you."

Xiao Sun is the surname of the female online friend my cousin is planning to marry.

When my cousin heard him say this, he immediately realized that he was exposed, and he panicked and wanted to run away.

But he was not as strong as his cousin. He was punched in the stomach and arched his body like a shrimp in pain: "Ah! It hurts!"

When my aunt heard the noise, she ran out of the kitchen in panic and walked to the door: "What happened? Why are you two brothers fighting?"

The little prince pressed his cousin Xiao Chen to the ground and sat on him, pressing him so that he couldn't move. He raised his finger and pointed at him viciously: "Tell your aunt what good things you did, don't force me to say it!"

Xiao Chen was pressed to the ground and rubbed, his face red as a tomato, but because it was his fault, he didn't dare to resist, and cried loudly for mercy: "Cousin, I play the game without skins, which is like running naked, so I just want to get some money from you."

His friends often buy bags, shoes and skins for their girlfriends. He saw this so many times that he got an idea. He could fake his voice and pretend to be a woman to make some money.

He didn't know much about other people, but he knew his family and friends best, so his first target was his cousin who was now quite wealthy running a small business.

At first he just wanted to make some money, but his cousin was an older bachelor, and after some interactions he actually fell in love with his online girlfriend.

520 red envelopes, 521 red envelopes, festival red envelopes, New Year red envelopes... He almost never asked for them actively, but the other party transferred countless money to him, a total of more than 200,000 yuan.

He was blinded by the money and gradually couldn't hold back, so he accepted it with an attitude of neither taking the initiative nor refusing.

The little prince was about to bite his teeth to pieces, and he grabbed his cousin's neck and said, "Damn you, you dare to do anything to me. I'll teach you a lesson. You're really going to open a dyeing room."

After he finished speaking, he looked up at his aunt who was in panic: "Aunt, he cheated me of nearly 200,000 yuan. We can't just let this go!"

My aunt gradually pieced together the truth of the matter, and immediately walked out, returning with an iron clothesline in her hand.

Her eyes were redder than the deceived little prince's, and she shouted at the top of her lungs, "How dare you cheat your cousin out of so much money! How could I raise a beast like you!"

The iron rod hit his son hard, making a dull sound, and every time it hit, a bruise appeared on his body.

Xiao Chen twisted on the ground in pain: "Wuwuwu mom, please stop hitting me. I won't dare to do it again next time!"

However, my aunt didn't listen at all. She used all her strength in each blow, and the sound of the stick was endless.

When the little prince heard Xiao Chen's heart-wrenching voice, he was immediately frightened and felt as if he had been hit on the body. It hurt so much.

He suddenly remembered that his aunt had a hard life. Her husband ran off with his mistress, leaving her and her cousin alone. She had to work two jobs. Her cousin did not study well and was addicted to playing games. He was admitted to a very poor school in the college entrance examination.

He has always been very respectful to his aunt.

A trace of pity emerged in his heart, and he was about to persuade his aunt not to beat her so harshly.

However, at this time, Xiao Chen pleaded with the little prince: "Brother, you are so lonely as an older bachelor, I am helping you by chatting with you, even if I have no credit, I have worked hard, please forgive me!"

The little prince: "..."

The little prince felt like vomiting and punched Xiao Chen with a bang: "Damn it, if you hadn't told me about this I wouldn't have remembered it. You're making me sick to death!"

Who can accept that the girlfriend you’ve been dating for several years is not a woman, and secondly, is your cousin?

Finally, my aunt bent the iron clothesline and became exhausted. She said angrily, “Give me all the money you cheated me of, or I will no longer have you as my son!”

My aunt usually dotes on my cousin, but she won't tolerate such principled issues as theft and fraud. As the saying goes, if you steal needles when you are young, you will steal gold when you grow up. Now he dares to cheat money, won't he be in jail in the future?

Fortunately, Xiao Chen usually only bought skins in the game and did not make any other purchases. He only spent less than 10,000 yuan, and the rest of the money is still there.

He covered his head and sobbed while transferring the money to his cousin.

The aunt searched the house and found more than ten thousand yuan. She returned the money to the little prince and the matter was settled.

After what happened just now, the little prince no longer had the high spirits he had before, and his face turned pale.

He thanked An Rugu with mixed feelings and hung up the phone.

People in the live broadcast room were still discussing the little prince enthusiastically.

[Tsk tsk, I thought it was orthopedics, I took off my pants, but it turned out not to be. 】

[Stop knocking, stop knocking. Thinking of my husband who had just seen the sun rise after the rain, I have already climbed up Kongtong Mountain overnight. ]

[This destined person is even more miserable than the three college students last time. The one who deceived him was not a friend, but a younger brother who is related to him by blood, so the harm is doubled. ]

【《Brotherly Friendship and Respect for Brothers》】

[I watch the anchor’s online dating failure video every day, and my heart is sealed from me. My mother doesn’t have to worry about me falling in love online anymore. ]

An Rugu calculated with her fingers and found that Xiao Chen behaved badly. After he tasted the sweetness and was not discovered, he became more and more unscrupulous and would have ended up in jail.

Fortunately, the little prince and her were connected on the microphone this time, and the truth was revealed. He was severely punished, and he learned his lesson and his character improved a lot.

She took a look and saw that there were a lot of people watching in the live broadcast room. The popularity had reached more than 12 million, ranking among the top five in the entire Shark platform. It can be said that she was extremely popular, making many small and even big anchors extremely envious.

With such high popularity, most anchors would choose to broadcast more in order to make more money.

But it took time for her to find her husband after the rain, it took a lot of time for Teacher Zhou's wife to go to school, and it took a long time for the little prince to find his cousin. She has been live for more than six hours.

An Rugu didn't want to continue broadcasting, so she said into the microphone: "Then today's live broadcast ends here. The next fortune-telling live broadcast will be in ten days."

[Ten days is only 860,000 seconds. Yes, I can wait.]

[Can I set the clock at home to ten days later now? ]

[Anchor! Anchor! How can I live without you! ]

Amid a barrage of comments trying to persuade her to stay, An Rugu raised her jade-white hand and ruthlessly turned off the live broadcast.

She has been live streaming for so long that it is almost exceeding the legal working hours, and she refuses to work 996.

................

The next day, the weather was humid and heavy fog began to shroud the Izumo-kan Temple in the morning. A light mist enveloped the mountains, and every breath was filled with the fresh and fragrant scent of trees, flowers and plants in the mountains.

The pilgrims who came to burn incense could not help but take out their mobile phones to take pictures to preserve this extremely rare and beautiful scene.

"This is so beautiful. I feel like I have climbed up a legendary fairy mountain, and a fairy is coming to take me to practice Taoism."

"No wonder it's called Izumo Mountain. It's really a mountain standing in the clouds."

The pilgrims found it very rare, but to An Rugu, who grew up here, this scene was just an ordinary thing.

In the morning, as usual, she told fortunes for those who had come from afar to Izumo Temple.

But after a while, some unusual people suddenly came to the Taoist temple, led by a man in his sixties with half-white hair.

He wore glasses, was well-dressed, had a casual temperament, and looked gentle and refined. Following behind him were four young men, all of whom had a scholarly air.

Professor Zhang found An Rugu through Shang Yue. The moment he saw her, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

The Special Management Bureau asked him to come here to look for someone. He thought this powerful master was at least middle-aged, but he didn't expect that he was almost the same age as his student.

He collected his thoughts and stated his purpose: "Hello, are you Miss An Rugu?"

"Yes." An Rugu put down the teacup in her hand and asked curiously, "What do you want from me?"

Professor Zhang looked at the others and sighed, "It's like this, our archaeological team encountered something strange, and I would like to ask you to solve it."

An Rugu heard something strange, so he looked at Professor Zhang carefully. He had a faint evil aura, which was very faint. It didn't seem like he was entangled by evil spirits, but it seemed that he had accidentally come into contact with something and was infected.

"What's wrong?"

Professor Zhang looked distressed. "About ten days ago, we received news that three villagers in a small village in Baocheng suddenly fainted and were unconscious. They were carrying burial objects, including gold, jade and porcelain. The burial objects and clothes were covered with dust..."

"Grave robber?"

Professor Zhang nodded and said, "Yes, we initially suspected that they were tomb robbers. For some reason, they have been unconscious and are now being treated in the hospital.

Our archaeological team happened to be nearby, and after receiving the report, we went to identify the burial objects. The village of blue and white porcelain hides an ancient tomb from the Ming Dynasty.

The burial objects are very valuable, so the ancient tomb must be very large."

An Rugu was thoughtful, an ancient tomb from the Ming Dynasty...

Professor Zhang sighed: "The tomb objects have been discovered by tomb robbers, and they will probably be emptied soon. We wanted to carry out rescue excavations, but Heishui Village is located deep in the mountains with countless cliffs. We led people to investigate there for several days, but did not find any trace of the ancient tomb.

The three villagers are still unconscious, their lives are in danger, and nothing can be obtained from them.

After I informed them of this matter, they asked me to come here to find you to see if you have any solution.”

When the archaeological team excavated the Wanli Emperor's tomb, many colorful murals faded in the blink of an eye, causing huge losses. Therefore, the state later explicitly stipulated that tombs should not be excavated actively, and only minor security measures should be used. Rescue excavations can be carried out when necessary.

Now the tomb robbers have discovered the ancient tomb before the archaeological team, and there may be more than just these three villagers, there are others who are also stealing the treasures in the tomb.

Tomb robbing and archaeology are two completely different concepts. Tomb robbers, for the sake of profit and desire, will dig, dig, chisel, and blast, stealing treasures from tombs in a very destructive way and selling them.

As a result, many precious cultural relics were destroyed and lost overseas. After all, as long as the money is enough, they will sell it to anyone.

Archaeology, on the other hand, is about excavating cultural relics, protecting cultural relics and studying history while doing our best to protect tombs, which is of extraordinary significance.

It would be a disaster if the ancient tomb fell into the hands of tomb robbers. Now the ancient tomb is in danger, so it is a rescue excavation, and the archaeological team of Jingcheng University will take on this task.

They called the police, and the police transferred the matter to the Special Management Bureau. After much thought, the people in the Special Management Bureau asked the other party to look for An Rugu.

Under the expectant gazes of the crowd, An Rugu remained noncommittal: "I can't give you a location here. I have to go to the scene to take a look."

Professor Zhang and his colleagues understood that it was extremely difficult to find the ancient tomb, but they really had no other options, so they tried every possible means.

Seeing that An Rugu seemed unsure, they were not disappointed and agreed.

Their archaeological team is planning to go to Heishui Village again tomorrow. An Rugu has made an appointment with the other party and they will take a car to the target location together tomorrow.

After they left, Lin Weiyu from the Special Management Bureau called and mentioned Professor Zhang: "Did the professor from the archaeological team come to see you?"

"They were here."

"Oh, Professor Zhang is a leader in the field of archaeology. He has devoted his life to studying cultural relics and has published many books. The three tomb robbers suddenly fell into a coma. We think they were cursed by the tomb owner."

An Rugu was thoughtful: "I think so too. The owner of this tomb should know some metaphysical methods."

After hanging up the phone, she turned on her cell phone and searched for Heishui Village on the Internet.

Heishui Village is very close to the capital, but it is a small village. Because of the steep mountain roads, the economy cannot develop. The capital was the capital of the Ming Dynasty.

He was not buried in the capital city, but in a small and remote mountain village. He must not be a royal relative, but just a wealthy businessman.

.............

The next day, the sky brightened with bright sunshine and fresh air.

An Rugu prepared the necessary things, flew to the airport with the archaeological team, changed buses many times, and finally arrived at Heishui Village exhausted.

As they were about to go in, Professor Zhang seemed to have thought of something and smiled kindly: "By the way, I heard that you are the anchor, can this event be broadcast live today?"

Archaeological excavations have not received much attention. In recent years, in order to increase the public's attention to ancient culture, they have chosen to keep up with the trend of the times. Whenever a large tomb is excavated, it will be live-broadcasted on the entire network, such as the official tomb that was excavated previously.

An Rugu lowered her eyes and thought for a while. She usually told fortunes every ten days, and the audience was always unsatisfied and hoped that she would broadcast more often.

But apart from fortune-telling, she couldn't find anything suitable to be broadcast.

There didn't seem to be any harm in live streaming the search for ancient tombs. It was similar to the outdoor adventure live broadcasts she had seen on the Shark platform before.

An Rugu hummed: "If you don't mind, I'll start now."

She picked up her mobile phone. There were not many signal towers near Heishui Village, but they were enough, and the signal was only one bar less than full.

She opened her live broadcast room and changed the title of the room to "Journey to Find Ancient Tombs". After clicking the start live broadcast button, many people suddenly flocked into the room.

[Huh? Today is Wednesday, why did the anchor suddenly start broadcasting? ]

【Redefine Wednesday! 】

[The lazy anchor who broadcasts live three days a month has finally become diligent, great news! ]

【Welcome today's three unlucky guys. 】

[No, please look at the title. Today’s title is not fortune telling, but finding an ancient tomb.]

An Rugu nodded slightly: "No fortune telling today. The person next to you is a professor from the archaeological team. Let's go find an ancient tomb."

Professor Zhang smiled warmly and took the initiative to greet the people in the live broadcast room: "Hello."

The live broadcast room suddenly became lively.

[Who is this old man? I don’t know him.]

[Fuck, isn't this the famous Professor Zhang? ]

[He is a famous archaeologist who has participated in the excavation of numerous well-known ancient tombs. I am a student of the archaeology department. Master, please accept my respect.]

[The professor of archaeology and the fortune-telling anchor are together, which is truly a dream collaboration. 】

[Wait, the anchor can actually find ancient tombs? Wow, hexagonal player! ]

An Rugu selected some comments and replied, "This ancient tomb should be nearby. It has been visited by tomb robbers and needs rescue excavation. As for whether it can be found, I am not completely sure. I need to see it in person."

Afterwards, An Rugu followed the archaeological team into Heishui Village.

She has learned a lot of different things and read many strange books. She has never robbed a tomb, but she knows some knowledge related to tombs.

She did not go looking for the ancient tomb first, but instead found the villagers of Heishui Village who were chatting under a tree at the entrance of the village.

This is the "ask" in the method of "look, listen, ask and feel" to find ancient tombs.

No one knows local affairs better than the locals.

These villagers are mostly middle-aged and elderly people, chatting about family matters with a relaxed look.

"Excuse me, but are there any legends about tombs in your village?"

The villagers looked at each other, and seeing that they were well-dressed and had an extraordinary demeanor, they became serious.

"I don't know. I haven't heard my ancestors talk about it."

"Our village is so poor that if there were any tombs, they would have been dug up long ago."

The archaeological team felt a little disappointed when they heard this. It seemed that these villagers knew very little information.

At this time, an old woman fanned herself with a palm-leaf fan and said in a hoarse voice, "I heard that the village scoundrel and his two brothers were sent to the hospital. Is that why you are here?"

An Rugu nodded: "Yes."

The old woman sighed heavily, "The second-rate guy usually works in the city. He came back with his friends last month. I don't know what he was doing at home. I felt something was wrong, and sure enough, something happened. There is indeed something about the grave in our village."

When the archaeological team heard this, their eyes lit up.

"What is it?"

"Please tell us, it's really important."

Everyone fully expected to hear detailed information about the tomb, such as its location.

What the old woman said almost made their jaws drop.

"There is a fairy tomb in our village!"

She pursed her lips and said, "It is said that a pair of immortals fell in love, but they violated the laws of heaven, so they had to separate. Then they came to our Black Water Village to commit suicide for love and were buried here. Anyone who goes to look for immortals will die, so no one in our village has ever looked for the immortal tombs."

The archaeological team: “…”

The people in the live broadcast room: “…

[A deity is actually in love and comes to the human world to die for love? A deity who is obviously compassionate and generous would actually kill a person? This is the devil. 】

[Is it true that my mother-in-law didn’t make this up after watching a TV drama? 】

The old woman thought for a moment and sighed, "I think the second-rate guy must have gone to look for the immortal tomb. He deserves it. He didn't listen to the old woman's advice and suffered the consequences."

Everyone asked some more questions and found that they were all trivial matters. There seemed to be no clues, so they thanked the other party and turned away.

Professor Zhang brought An Rugu to the house they rented in Heishui Village. It was an old house in the village where no one lived, and it belonged to the village chief.

When they came here before, they all rested in this place. After all, the nearby mountain roads were winding and tortuous, and they couldn't even walk one tenth of the mountain roads in a day.

They were prepared to spend three to five months in this place.

An Rugu put down some toiletries. At this time, Professor Zhang next to her asked, "Have you got any idea?"

His students chattered and discussed: "I suspect that the immortal tomb is the tomb we are looking for. The three villagers probably knew this legend, so they went to look for the immortal tomb."

"I think so too. Is there really a god in this place?"

"How is that possible? You must have watched too many fantasy dramas."

An Rugu raised his head and expressed his opinion to Professor Zhang: "In fact, I also think it is not a tomb of gods. It is very likely that three people make a tiger, and the news spreads more and more sensational. Maybe at the beginning, it was just a wealthy family who was buried here."

Professor Zhang nodded: "...It's possible."

But he was not sure. The three villagers fell into a coma for no reason, which made him, who had always believed in materialism, a little worried and scared.

It seems like there is really an unnatural force in the invisible world.

...............

They have been working on the front line for many years, and they are in good physical condition and very dedicated. Although they are tired from the journey, they don't have time to rest. After putting their things away, they take their equipment and go out to look for graves.

For the sake of safety and efficiency, they were divided into groups of three and went to different places.

An Rugu did not choose to stay with the main group because three villagers were cursed and fell into a coma, which meant that this place was a bit dangerous and ordinary people could not withstand the curse.

And when she is live streaming, she can choose to adjust the camera or cut off the live streaming to avoid some sensitive scenes. But if there are people around, it is not convenient for her to move her hands.

Others were worried about her safety, but thinking that she was a professional who was invited, they did not refuse and agreed.

She already had an idea, so she headed directly to the most likely direction, due south.

Heishui Village is surrounded by mountains. After leaving the village, the rugged and steep peaks come into view. It is afternoon now, the sky is brightest, and the green peaks are like shy girls, looming, charming and quiet.

She held her mobile phone and used the camera on the back to record the beautiful scene.

[The environment of Heishui Village is so good, it is my dream village. I want to travel here. ]

【Every frame can be screenshot as wallpaper. 】

【Plus one, the fresh air seems to be able to come out through the screen. 】

[By the way, the wild is not only beautiful, but also full of bugs. The archaeologists wore thicker clothes to protect themselves from bugs. Why did the host wear so little? ]

[Add one, the last time I went back to my hometown in the countryside in the summer, when I came back, a person grew on the mosquito bite. ]

Seeing these comments, An Rugu took out a talisman from his pocket and moved it in front of the camera. The complicated symbols came into the eyes of the audience in the live broadcast room: "This is the insect repellent talisman I brought. After wearing it, all insects will not invade."

What was not captured in the live broadcast was that where she walked, many insects twisted their bodies and crawled to the side, trying to avoid her.

[66666, can mosquitoes also be prevented? ]

[If you can repel mosquitoes, I would give you a Nobel Prize. ]

【All creatures have spirits, but mosquitoes do not. 】

"Sure, if you want to buy it, just come to Izumo-kan."

After she finished speaking, she continued walking forward.

There were no roads in the world, but as people walked on them, roads were formed. Villagers would chop wood nearby, and there would be winding paths on the road.

An Rugu continued walking along the path, but the path was very short and disappeared after a while. There was only dense bushes in front of him and the music of crickets and chirping birds.

It seems that the villagers' exploration area is limited to here and they rarely go forward.

After thinking about it, she decisively walked forward three or four kilometers.

At this moment, she suddenly understood why the villagers didn't move forward.

Because there was a winding cliff ahead.

The cliff is nearly 90 degrees and extremely steep. It has been eroded by water for tens of millions of years, forming gullies on the surface. Strange pines have built sheds on the cliff, and green vines are entwined on the cliff.

Walking to the side of the cliff and looking down, you can see the deep canyon filled with mysterious fog.

The bottom seemed to have absorbed all the sunlight, and it was dark without any skylight. It was pitch black, as thick as ink, and bottomless.

[Mom! I’m afraid of heights! ]

[Ahhhhhh, this is so scary, can you please get my phone back? I feel like I fell down.]

[Estimating the depth, it's at least a hundred meters. If you fall in, there will be no trace of your body left.]

[Am I the only one who finds this interesting? It's like the place in martial arts novels where treasures are passed around.]

[Hahahahaha I think so too, host, hurry down and look for treasure! Here's your chance to become a martial arts master! ]

An Rugu, who saw these comments, said: "..."

There aren't any martial arts secrets here, probably only snakes and insects.

She pondered for a moment, looked around again and again, and looked at the mountains in the south from the edge of the cliff, not missing any strange places.

After a long time, she came to a conclusion and casually said some simple knowledge: "The ancients believed in Feng Shui, so if you want to find an ancient tomb, you have to consider it from the perspective of Feng Shui. The ancient tombs of the Ming Dynasty are generally on the sunny side of the mountain. Whether it is a tomb in the mountain or by the water, it is important to store wind and gather energy. Simply put, if you find a container that absorbs energy, you can find the tomb."

【Some strange knowledge has been added.】

[The brain knows how to do it, but the hands don’t. ]

[Hehe, after reading this I'm going to rob a tomb. Now I'm going to buy a Luoyang shovel. ]

"You can't rob graves. It's very easy to lose your virtue."

An Rugu walked over, raised her slender hand, and pointed at the mountain in front of her: "Look at this mountain and the surrounding trees, what do they look like when put together?"

Many people in the live broadcast room suddenly became serious and looked at the mountain in the room.

The towering mountain stands tall and proud, surrounded by many trees, with green grass under the trees. The trees are high and low, scattered in an orderly manner.

【I see.】

[I noticed that, too.]
