Is there some kind of passageway here?
Just as I was about to leave, I couldn't help but ask Long Xiyue a question.
"I don't know either, but a school principal once told me that I absolutely must not go!"
Long Xiyue shook her head, giving me an ambiguous answer even though she didn't know.
After saying that, she floated ahead and led the way for me. I walked quickly in the direction Long Xiyue was pointing, and finally Long Xiyue stopped in front of a cabinet at the corner.
"The principal told me that this cabinet must not be opened!"
Of course, I was quite obedient back then, so I followed the principal's instructions and didn't open the cabinet!
Long Xiyue pointed to the wooden cabinet.
I first used my clairvoyance to observe, but it didn't detect anything unusual.
But the more this is the case, the more it proves there's a problem.
I placed my hand on the cabinet, pressed down hard, and then gently tapped it. Sure enough, I sensed that there was something special inside the cabinet.
I tried to move it, but unfortunately the cabinet was attached to the floor and was basically fixed in place.
The cabinet is locked, but since Long Xiyue is currently in a soul state, she can't find it even if she has the key.
Old Dao understood what I meant, went up and kicked the cabinet, smashing it to pieces.
After the cabinet was kicked open, I found that it was pitch black inside and I couldn't see anything.
"Brother Chen, there's definitely something wrong here. Is the He residence just past here?"
Seeing this thing that looked like a bottomless pit, Lao Dao took two steps back.
That place left us with lingering fear.
We were lucky to get out last time, but we probably won't be so lucky this time.
I looked at the cave entrance again through my third eye, and this time I could sense an astonishingly evil aura inside.
It's gushing out through this passage.
I only briefly sensed the atmosphere inside, and my scalp tingled.
"So, Brother Chen, should we go down and take a look?"
Old Dao's voice trembled as he spoke, showing that the evil energy had affected him, and he dared not make any rash moves.
"Find something to seal up the cabinet!"
I made a quick decision and told Lao Dao to block the hole first.
The evil aura here is even stronger than when I last came. I understand that the thing inside has now become powerful and is definitely not something I can touch.
All I can do is play it safe and develop my strength.
Otherwise, taking too much risk could lead to the same situation as last time.
The difference is that I was lucky last time, but I wasn't so lucky this time.
After hearing this, Lao Dao breathed a sigh of relief, probably because he was afraid that I might impulsively take him down.
We worked together to move a cabinet from the side and completely blocked the hole.
Long Xiyue, who was standing next to her, was completely dumbfounded.
"Seniors, why is there this hole in this archive room?"
Long Xiyue's voice trembled, as if she were genuinely afraid of what was inside, and this didn't seem like she was faking it.
I didn't explain much, but Lao Dao casually told Long Xiyue about the things inside and described our previous experience.
After hearing these stories, Long Xiyue was still shaken.
"Senior Lao Dao, are you saying that Teacher Cao came here specifically for this cave entrance?"
Long Xiyue has now struck up a conversation with Lao Dao.
The old Taoist chuckled, completely captivated by his predecessors from this lifetime.
Then Lao Dao would agree with whatever Long Xiyue said.
Of course, this old guy basically knows nothing.
What Long Xiyue said also reminded me.
Why did Cao Rongbin keep going inside?
The most likely reason is that this kid's goal is the passage inside.
According to this theory, Cao Rongbin's death was not unjust!
Those who know about the passage must be related to the He family.
Old Dao and I were both exhausted from investigating this matter.
Not to mention Cao Rongbin.
"Old Dao, Cao Rongbin might have been investigating the He family's affairs, just like us!"
I suddenly spoke up and briefly explained my guess to Lao Dao.
After hearing this, Lao Dao exclaimed "Holy crap!" which startled both Long Xiyue and me.
"If that's really the case, then he deserves it. We barely escaped death!"
Old Dao clutched his chest as he spoke, still shaken.
"If it weren't for Brother Chen's efforts, we would all be dead inside."
That Teacher Cao, he really insists on investigating this matter. He deserves to die!
Old Dao cursed.
"Yes! Things are starting to get more and more interesting! We thought it was just something that happened at school, but it's come full circle!"
I can't even describe how I feel right now; I'm a little excited and a little worried.
I was even a little scared.
When the word "fear" came to mind, I even wondered if my soul had returned.
Since experiencing so much, I feel that I have received much more emotional support than before.
It's completely different from the very beginning.
Now that I've found the entrance to the cave and know what the principal is trying to hide, I was worried that Long Xiyue would run away, so I took out the mirror and put him inside.
I can't completely disbelieve what this female ghost says, but I also can't completely believe it. I know that this bastard must be hiding something.
And so, I pulled Lao Dao along, ready to open the door. As soon as the door opened, we ran into Zhang Yongnian.
When Zhang Yongnian saw me, he showed no remorse whatsoever, nor did he offer any explanation; he simply scanned my body.
After scanning him over, he showed a satisfied expression: "You're good, you're very good."
"I never imagined I could gather so much energy in such a short time, and my control over my power is much stronger than before!"
Zhang Yongnian stroked his beard and gave a sigh of admiration.
"Senior, what is this? Is it a test?"
I tried my best to suppress my emotions, then looked up and asked Zhang Yongnian.
I want to know what this means.
"If you don't go through these things, you'll never grow. Remember the secret technique I told you?"
Zhang Yongnian looked at me indifferently and brought up that secret technique.
I nodded; of course I remembered those.
"You absorbed so much energy just to prepare for that technique!"
I thought you'd lose yourself, which is why I've been waiting at the door. I never expected you to remain so clear-headed!
Zhang Yongnian sighed softly, which also perfectly explained why he was here.
