After leaving Grandpa Li Lianying, Liao Zhiyuan jumped directly onto the back of Zhao Youliang's old bicycle and spoke softly.
"Brother Quantum, we must be careful what we say when we meet Senior Stone later."
"Demons are capricious and act entirely according to their own whims."
"If we accidentally offend him, we could very well be wiped out."
"Really?" Zhao Youliang was somewhat skeptical upon hearing this: "My little master is a demon, but he seems to have a pretty good temper."
"They know how to care about us, but beating people up can hurt a bit."
Liao Zhiyuan's expression turned complicated upon hearing this: "Is the Faceless Master good-tempered?"
"Quantum Bro, if some people heard what you said, they'd be crying on the ground."
"However, as a junior, I cannot talk about my elders behind their backs... You'll understand eventually."
Before they knew it, the group had arrived at their destination.
Leaning the old bicycle against a tree... Why against a tree? Because there's no frame.
After putting away his old bicycle, Zhao Youliang straightened his clothes and took out a green talisman, which he then lit.
"All things are spiritual and wield fire in the human world; the Southern Dipper shines brightly, and the earth is only partially visible."
"Junior Zhao Youliang humbly requests Senior Stone to appear before me!"
After reciting the incantation, he bowed deeply and said, "Please come!"
Bowing again: "Please come again!"
Three bows: "Three requests!"
Unfortunately, even though Zhao Youliang used the highest level of courtesy, there was still no reaction from those around him.
"this......"
Li Mao couldn't stay still, so he started circling around in place to study the problem.
"Quantum, do you think it's possible that Grandpa Stone moved house, or went out for a stroll?"
Zhao Youliang: "......"
"Xiao Li, have you ever seen a big rock like to wander around or move house?"
“Cultivators like him almost never move around casually for thousands of years.”
"Hey, if you really have nothing to do, why don't you go over there and help Big Yellow pick lice?"
What Zhao said was exactly the kind of thing where he'd get beaten up and no one would stop him.
Because that big yellow dog not only doesn't eat poop, but it's also very clean.
There wasn't a single louse on it, not even a speck of dust on its fur.
If the gang were to elect a hygiene representative, besides Chang Jie, it would be Big Yellow Dog.
......
Just as the thug was baring his teeth and about to beat Zhao Youliang up, the quick-witted Liao Zhiyuan hurriedly changed the subject.
"Quantum Bro, this won't work."
"It seems that Senior Stone doesn't want to pay attention to us and doesn't want us to disturb his cultivation."
"Now we can only..."
Seeing that Liao Zhiyuan remained silent, Zhao Youliang grew anxious.
"Only what?"
Liao Zhiyuan smiled mysteriously: "We can only try to lure the Yin Spirit Cart over here."
"Senior Stone and Yinlingche are sworn enemies. As long as that guy appears, Senior Stone will definitely show up to settle accounts with him."
“Okay, alright…” Zhao Youliang nodded deeply.
"But can we just say this to each other's faces? Senior Stone won't be angry, will he?"
Liao Zhiyuan was quite confident about this.
"Don't worry, Quantum Brother. At this stage, everyone's divine sense is contained."
"Unless something he is particularly concerned about appears, he is no different from an ordinary rock."
As they were talking, Li Mao, who couldn't stay still, made another move.
Instead of helping the big yellow dog get rid of fleas, he pulled out a hoe from somewhere and started digging wildly at the ground.
"Li, Li Mao, what are you doing?"
"Digging for gold?"
"Why dig for gold? Dig for old stones!" Li Mao replied matter-of-factly.
“I looked around just now, and there are no human-shaped stones at all, so they must be hiding underground waiting to ambush the Yinling Cart.”
"Let's just start digging... why don't we just knock on the door?"
"This works too?" Zhao Youliang was taken aback and subconsciously looked at Liao Zhiyuan.
After thinking for a moment, Liao Zhiyuan nodded slightly: "Brother Quantum, we can't do it this way, but Brother Li Mao can."
"Don't forget, he's also Senior Stone's godson."
"And Senior Stone dotes on them the most, so if Li Mao disturbs him, he won't get beaten up."
"At least they won't beat you to death."
Zhao Youliang: "......"
"All right."
This time, Li Mao actually guessed right: the guy was strong and healthy, so he dug a hole half a meter deep in no time.
Below, a huge rock shaped like a human figure was clearly visible.
Although the stone was buried deep underground, not a single speck of soil clung to it.
It's even incredibly smooth, like it's been polished and played with for over a decade, or like a carefully polished marble tabletop.
Not only that, even the red ribbons tied all over the stone figure were as bright and new as ever.
Upon seeing the stone man appear, Zhao Youliang and the others quickly bowed in respect.
But before they could speak, they suddenly felt an extremely evil aura emanating from within.
"Something terrible has happened!"
Zhao Youliang was about to warn everyone to take cover, but it was too late.
Suddenly, the stone man opened his eyes and threw a heavy punch.
Li Mao, who was the first to be hit, immediately let out a scream and was sent flying.
Before even landing, he coughed up blood, yelled "I'm dead!" and then fell to the ground with a thud, never to be heard again.
The stone golem, which was about to continue its attack, hesitated noticeably after being splashed with the blood Li Mao spat out.
Taking advantage of this moment, Zhao Youliang quickly led everyone to turn around and run away.
Of course, they didn't forget to carry the unconscious Li Mao on their backs.
