Come pick me up



Come pick me up

Jiang Jingyuan was startled and turned back.

About ten steps ahead, the figure was still squatting hunched on the ground, with his back to her, motionless and quiet.

Jiang Jingyuan turned his head again.

Ten steps behind him, the figure was also squatting on the ground, hunched over, motionless and quiet.

Jiang Jingyuan turned his head and looked at the darkness in front of him for a moment, then slowly lowered his head and looked at his feet.

In the darkness, a pale figure was vaguely revealed, and "whoosh!" Her skin and flesh were torn apart and blood was rolling under her feet.

Jiang Jingyuan suddenly retracted his foot, "thump." He stepped on a piece of blood.

Jiang Jingyuan's body suddenly stiffened.

In front, the curled-up figure slowly turned around bit by bit.

Jiang Jingyuan turned back suddenly.

Behind her, the hunched figure with his back to her also turned around little by little.

Like an exquisite sculpture on a turntable, the figure remained in the same posture, motionless, yet strangely and silently turned.

Jiang Jingyuan was turning his head.

My sight suddenly caught a strange face in the darkness.

Half of this human face was stained with blood, and the shadows were thick and blurry. It had hunched limbs and was holding a pale human body, gnawing on it.

Jiang Jingyuan took a closer look and saw that deep within those dark eye sockets were two dark, bloody holes!

Oh my god! Jiang Jingyuan almost had a cardiac arrest. He immediately turned around and was about to run, but his sight was caught off guard by the two dark shadows.

She paused, then silently turned around and ran to the side.

As she approached, hunched figures appeared one after another in the inky darkness.

They all stared at her with their bloody holes.

With a whoosh, they quickly jumped up, like a thick and sticky black tide, surging towards her with a "boom, boom, boom".

"Who would put these things in a tomb?"

Jiang Jingyuan dodged the dark shadows that pounced on him, his pupils trembling, and he trembled in his heart, "Can this really be considered peace?"

"Da, da, da..."

She dodged and moved closer to the wall, slapping her hands on the cold wall and groping for a way out.

"As long as nothing happens to the body and the coffin, how can it not be considered peace?"

In his mind, Xu Qinglin suddenly laughed and said.

"You were so listless just now, but now you're all fired up when there's something lively going on?!"

Jiang Jingyuan held his breath and screamed angrily in his heart.

Xu Qinglin laughed again and stopped talking, leaving her with only deathly silence.

Jiang Jingyuan: "..."

"No, you can at least come and help me find the direction..." Jiang Jingyuan shouted.

As she moved to the side, a bloody black shadow brushed past her in an instant, and fell backwards with a "bang".

The black shadow rolled on the ground, stood up again, stared at the vague white shadow with a pair of black bloody eyes, and slowly gnashed his teeth.

The sound of teeth grinding, which made one's scalp tingle and hair stand on end, echoed and alternated from all directions in the darkness.

"Crackle, crackle, crackle..."

It was like the sound of countless old wood rubbing against each other.

Rather than being horrified or anything else, the inexplicable anxiety and irritability in his heart was even worse. With his heart in his throat and his brows unconsciously furrowed, Jiang Jingyuan subconsciously took a deep breath.

However, the next moment, a mixture of rottenness, the bloody smell of rust after rain, and a smell like vomit hit him in the face.

Her face suddenly changed and she stopped breathing. The irritability in her heart was immediately overwhelmed by the strong nausea.

"Xu Qinglin..." Jiang Jingyuan called out in a sad tone.

Xu Qinglin didn't respond immediately, but just: "?"

"Let's blow up this place." Jiang Jingyuan said sadly.

Xu Qinglin wanted to curse but stopped, stopped and wanted to curse again, and finally said: "You think you are not dying fast enough?!"

She sneered, "Don't think that blood ties alone are a ticket to immunity. Not to mention that you've even brought people to dig up your ancestors' tombs. Even if you didn't have any, people would still kill you if they wanted to."

She said sarcastically, "There's no interest involved, and you tell others you're blood relatives, they'll laugh at you and call you stupid."

"Don't think about it, just bear with it and it will pass. Focus and leave quickly." Xu Qinglin said.

Jiang Jingyuan didn't discuss this mess with her in detail, but just said seriously:

"I've walked all the way here, into someone's mausoleum. How could the owner of this mausoleum not know I'm here?"

Jiang Jingyuan took advantage of the broken encirclement and quickly ran out from the gap. In the darkness, he frantically knocked and pushed the wall.

She kept moving and said:

"Anyway, we all know that it won't matter whether we fight or settle things peacefully, so why should I go through all the trouble of walking through this entire mausoleum by myself?

"I could just make a bigger scene and force the tomb owner to either show up or declare that he doesn't care about me... wouldn't that be easier for me?"

"......?" Xu Qinglin was silent for a while, and an expression of daze and sudden enlightenment unconsciously appeared on his face. He was speechless for a moment.

Jiang Jingyuan fumbled impatiently in the darkness and continued:

"Besides, if I blow up this place and the blood seal is there, those people will most likely take action. If they don't come looking for me, they will directly take me there.

"It would save me from being so busy here that they wouldn't know where to watch the show!"

She took the time to raise her finger and point at herself, saying:

"Are you expecting me to sneak through the entire mausoleum and launch a surprise attack when those people have no reaction at all?"

As Jiang Jingyuan spoke, his tone gradually became filled with disbelief.

She murmured, "Xu Qinglin, you don't really think so, do you?"

When Jiang Jingyuan thought of this possibility, his mind froze for a moment, his eyes filled with doubts about life, and he thought to himself:

"That's impossible. I can't really think like that, right...?"

Xu Qinglin was silent. Xu Qinglin didn't want to pay attention to her.

I thought it was just some rash, angry words spoken while throwing a tantrum, but it turns out he had thought it through...?

"Then why didn't you pay more attention at the beginning? Why did you have to make such a big fuss and have people come to dig the soil?"

Xu Qinglin half complained and half argued, "Exploring the mausoleum with someone like you is not a good immersive experience at all!"

Immediately, she slowly revealed an expression of "doubting life" and said slowly:

"Then you explode..."

Jiang Jingyuan did not move immediately, but called out "Xu Qinglin" again.

Xu Qinglin: “……?”

Xu Qinglin suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart, "What are you doing? Don't call me."

"Look, you're wasting your spiritual energy here in vain. You might suddenly fall asleep and disappear at any moment.

"Such a small matter has already wasted both of our energy and strength. In the end, when we met the person, we both had no choice but to surrender without any plan. What a pity!"

Jiang Jingyuan said righteously:

"Look, shouldn't you use your spiritual power on something truly meaningful and valuable?"

She said seriously:

"You blow up this place, and I'll go deal with those people. I'll take you away from here immediately and replenish your spiritual power immediately!"

Jiang Jingyuan vowed, "It won't take more than two hours."

Xu Qinglin: “!!!”

"Jiang Jingyuan, you!" Xu Qinglin suddenly laughed out loud, "You are simply..."

Jiang Jingyuan suddenly said seriously:

"We've been through thick and thin together for so many years. I trust you so much, but now I don't even ask whether you trust me or not. Just think about whether what I'm saying makes sense!"

Xu Qinglin: "..."

Jiang Jingyuan said seriously:

"Look, whether we walk or run or fight, we all depend on me. If I fall, you could disappear at any moment. Are you going to fight them?"

Jiang Jingyuan was grief-stricken:

"They can easily catch us all. Who knows what will happen to me then? Maybe I can still be safe and sound?

"Only you. It's a good thing that you continue to sleep. Who knows, you might be refined into a new magical weapon? Then I won't be able to see you again!"

Jiang Jingyuan said with tears in her eyes, "I'm just thinking about us and you!"

"Where did you learn all this nonsense..." Xu Qinglin couldn't help but twist his expression. He sighed softly and said, "I'll do it."

Jiang Jingyuan's eyes suddenly curved, "I knew you must trust me."

"Shut up..." Xu Qinglin's face was full of heaviness and sorrow, and he closed his eyes.

Grayish-white clouds suddenly filled the darkness.

Jiang Jingyuan immediately shut up, but after a pause, she shouted "Wait".

The thickening gray-white clouds stopped.

Before Xu Qinglin could ask any questions, he saw the girl in white standing still among the ghostly shadows.

She straightened her back, raised her head, and shouted loudly to the sky amid the countless ghosts rushing towards her—

"Come and pick me up! Or I'll blow this place up!!!"

Xu Qinglin was shocked.

Xu Qinglin silently took out the long-handled pipe that had transformed, brought it close to his mouth, and fell into deep thought.

Suddenly, a strong wind arose from nowhere, blowing away a group of twisted ghost shadows and bones.

Jiang Jingyuan was stunned, keeping his head held high and chest puffed out, watching this scene, and forgot to react for a moment.

"ah?"

This was the only thought in her mind.

The next moment, a strong wind gathered and suddenly blew her away.

Oh my god!

Jiang Jingyuan subconsciously closed his eyes, put his hands in front of him, and threw himself into the cold.

"boom--!"

In the darkness, the wall flipped rapidly.

Jiang Jingyuan felt dizzy and was thrown out by a huge force again.

No... Jiang Jingyuan felt dizzy and shocked. She just wanted to show off her arrogance and say something harsh before exploding...

How could I have imagined...

Hiccup——

Jiang Jingyuan staggered forward unconsciously. He was about to fall down if he stopped, and he couldn't stop running forward at all.

In the magic weapon killing situation, Xu Qinglin's face was full of "thinking about life" expression, and he murmured in his heart:

"Crazy people, they are all crazy people. The crazy people in the Jiang family know the crazy people in the Jiang family best..."

Jiang Jingyuan opened his eyes and his sight was unexpectedly met with a human face.

She stopped abruptly.

…………

In the magnificent hall shining with golden light.

The maids shouted at the wall for a long time, but there was no response.

They retreated little by little, their faces pale, their pupils trembling, and they were all in a rare state of panic.

He didn't notice that the people from Longyin Pavilion nearby had complicated expressions on their faces.

Those calls of "Your Highness"...

Your Highness...?

Although they had long understood that this employer was no ordinary person, this was still a bit too shocking...

Which country's prince is he from? An enemy of the Yuan Kingdom's Jiang family?

The expressions on the faces of everyone in Longyin Pavilion changed again and again, and finally became a look of "doubting life".

It couldn't be the prince of the Jiang family who was able to stop the tomb guards and cause such a big commotion for so many days, right?

It should... not be possible, right?

Everyone fell into deep thought.
