Chapter 74 Chapter 74 Qin Sheng wearing Ling Huan's clothes...
Qin Sheng finally figured out why his wife was so inexplicably angry just now.
After he had patched it several times with unremitting efforts, this vest of his had indeed become dispensable. It didn't matter if he took it off, not to mention that it did seem to be a bit of a hindrance in his actions now.
But it's not easy to say it. He relied on Xu Zhaoyi not to expose what nonsense he said to his wife before... He is just thick-skinned, not amnesiac.
Now Xu Zhaoyi poked a hole in the window paper with one finger, and Qin Sheng just happened to go down the stairs.
"I have to make it clear that I originally created this identity purely to give you time to retreat. I truly have no ill intentions, and certainly not to deceive you..."
He tried to play the emotional card, but was interrupted by Xu Zhaoyi's rude sneer: "But then you found it fun to trick me, so you got addicted to it, right?"
Qin Sheng: "..." It seems that his wife has become resistant to his sweet talk.
He had no choice but to start a magic exchange: "But aren't you enjoying it too? You should have discovered it a long time ago - that Ling Huan is your husband."
After saying that, he shook their clasped hands, reminding Xu Zhaoyi that he had just been seducing him with small movements in his palm.
Xu Zhaoyi curled his lips and thought to himself, I am different from you. I have the most basic moral values and sense of shame as a human being.
But he still said honestly, "You should be glad I found out. If it weren't for the coincidence that I knew Ling Huan was you, I would have beaten him up when he said he would recite the Heart Purification Mantra for me!"
Qin Sheng burst out laughing.
Xu Zhaoyi was so angry at Qin Sheng's nonchalant attitude that his teeth were itching. Unfortunately, they were in a forbidden area and it was not the time to bring up old grudges. Even if he wanted to beat someone up, he had to endure it. What's more, Qin Sheng's body could not withstand his beating. Even if he could withstand it, he could not beat this bastard who secretly used a cheat.
Both ends are blocked for him.
After walking hand in hand for a while, they finally left the narrow path with stone walls on both sides and the view became wider.
Xu Zhaoyi pulled Qin Sheng back and signaled him to hide the noodles. This was so that if there was a sudden situation that neither of them could handle, the noodles could be used as an unexpected trump card instead of just serving as a key to the teleportation array for escape.
He looked around warily. He was also unfamiliar with this place, and was even more certain that this was not the road he had taken in his previous life.
It was so quiet here, and there was nothing at all. He remembered that his burial place was not like this, so the experience gained from experiencing death was completely useless at this moment.
He tried to scatter a handful of paper figures to explore the way forward, but found that once the paper figures left his sight, he would immediately lose his sense.
Soon, more than a dozen paper figures lost contact.
Xu Zhaoyi's face was solemn. He turned around and was about to speak, but he happened to see Qin Sheng casually taking off the graffiti mask with questionable aesthetics, and after smoothing his slightly messy hair, he looked up at him.
“………” He couldn’t help but look up and down at the Ling Huan-style Qin Sheng in front of him, the one without the mask.
He swallowed unconsciously.
He had imagined it before, but... well, all he could say was that imagination was nothing compared to what he saw with his own eyes.
Ling Huan's casual and unruly dress, combined with Qin Sheng's handsome and gentle facial features and mature and steady temperament, creates a strong visual impact.
Contrasting but not inconsistent, in short...
Makes people think of /day.
Ever since he admitted that he was gay, he had fantasized about having closer contact with Qin Sheng, but it was actually a bit vague. It was just his body's instinct that made him want to get close to the person he liked without any barriers.
But until this moment, he discovered that desire could be visualized to such a detailed level. He even imagined taking off the other person's ripped jeans and leaving only a leather jacket...
Okay, if I think about it any further I won’t be able to stop the car.
Xu Zhaoyi quickly calmed down.
Qin Sheng, who was sitting opposite him, was so shameless that he almost felt embarrassed by his explicit gaze.
This was the first time that Qin Sheng noticed such obvious and strong desire in his wife's eyes.
That gaze seemed to have substance and caressed my entire body, completely different from the passively triggered, contradictory and awkward feeling when I had a physiological reaction in the Xu family yard before.
Before, he always thought that Xu Zhaoyi was just temporarily confused about his sexual orientation and had an illusion because of their overly special relationship. This illusion should be easy to get back after everything was over and they were apart for a while.
Now he was not sure... No, it should be said that he was truly certain now. Some things had completely gone off the track, to the point where neither escape nor time could automatically correct them.
"Why don't you take the mask back?" Xu Zhaoyi also realized that his gaze was too explicit. He coughed twice and said, "I can't concentrate with you like this."
Qin Sheng's mouth twitched slightly. "It's not like I'm naked. What's the difference between Ling Huan just now and me now?"
Is there such a big difference in treatment whether or not to wear a graffiti mask?
"You're not just wearing clothes, you're also wearing them in a very flashy way!" Xu Zhaoyi said confidently, then smiled and said, "Don't tell me, before I knew you were the same person, although I felt that Ling Huan and you were very similar in spirit, I really didn't think you were the same person."
I don't know why, but I feel that Ling Huan is much more lively than Qin Sheng - the kind of lively that's a bit naughty.
I don't mean to say that Qin Sheng is not a bitch.
The main reason is that Qin Sheng's temperament is too deceptive. When ordinary people get along with him, even if they are scolded by him, they will still stubbornly think that he is a very self-disciplined and polite person, and it is just an occasional harsh remark, which is harmless.
The key point is lively. Qin Sheng has nothing to do with this adjective. If his personality traits are compared to his relatives and friends, then the word lively belongs to the type of person who can rest assured even if his entire clan is executed.
"Why would I pretend if I can let you see it directly?" Qin Sheng squeezed his hand and asked him to get back to business. "Let's move forward. At least this time we need to know what dangers are hidden here. We can't come here in vain."
"Okay." Xu Zhaoyi nodded.
The noodles were put away and there was no way to provide light, so Qin Sheng took out a portable flashlight. However, after turning it on, it could only illuminate within a range of three meters. This place absorbed a lot of light, so he could only use it as a makeshift one.
The two of them walked forward cautiously. There was a dark void in front of them. Qin Sheng could only follow his intuition. It took him more than an hour to walk. This time was enough to walk out of the Qin family's residence.
After all, although Luoxing Lake is called a lake, it is just an artificial lakescape. The actual area is not small, but it is not large either.
"Could it be a ghost wall?" Xu Zhaoyi suspected they were going in circles. "Although this is deep underground, it doesn't matter whether it's outside the Qin family's territory or not. But if it were me, I would never feel comfortable leaving something so important to the entire family so far away."
It can't be that the purpose is to create a sense of mystery, so that people who come in will feel that the road has no end and then give up, right?
This is simply putting the cart before the horse. If the house is dug through in a place they can't take care of, wouldn't the whole family die together?
"While what you said makes sense, we didn't encounter a ghost wall." Qin Sheng said calmly, "Noodles said we were indeed walking in a straight line. However, after comparing the two routes, it discovered that we were not going east, south, west, or north, but were actually going vertically downwards."
As soon as these words came out, Xu Zhaoyi's eyebrows jumped and goose bumps appeared all over his body. "There's no ghost wall. Is it that the gravity here has changed?"
"Yes, that's why we didn't notice it."
Qin Sheng nodded and continued walking down with him.
This is actually reasonable. The endless Yin energy here must have a source. Qin Sheng previously thought that the Qin family had used some special method, but now he probably guessed that the Qin family was also very bold and stole "electricity" to the underworld.
After walking for about another half an hour, the range of the flashlight became smaller and smaller. Suddenly, a little white man flashed by at the junction of light and darkness.
Qin Sheng stopped abruptly.
Xu Zhaoyi was also startled, but he soon discovered that it was the paper figure he had sent out before and then lost contact with him!
Logically speaking, since the paper man was cut off from him, he would only act according to his remaining will. Xu Zhaoyi's order to them was to explore this place, but this paper man had clearly moved towards them just now.
He quickly told Qin Sheng to be careful.
"Someone has taken control of my paper figures." Xu Zhaoyi frowned tightly. His paper figures lost contact almost at the same time. Could it be that they were being watched after they passed through the stone wall path?
But who could track and spy on them under the nose of Qin Sheng, who is in the Foundation Establishment Stage? Not even the Qing Dynasty people outside can do it!
Then another possibility is that his paper figure just encountered something during the exploration and was possessed.
Qin Sheng narrowed his eyes, and relying on the foundation-building plug-in, he ignored the light limitations, saw the paper man opposite him clearly, and confirmed Xu Zhaoyi's second guess.
"There's a 'person' in that paper figure."
The paper figure stood quietly not far away, its featureless face facing them, as if observing them.
"Is he conscious?" Xu Zhaoyi asked in surprise.
Then he realized that the yin energy here was very strong, just like the underworld. If a ghost stayed here, it would not turn into an evil spirit and would remain as fresh as when it died.
Not only that, I'm afraid it can also use Yin energy for cultivation. After all, there are no ghost judges here. For ghosts, as long as they are not trapped in a forbidden formation and burned by karma fire like Qin Sheng, they are no different from a mouse that accidentally enters a rice jar.
Qin Sheng didn't know why, but when he looked at the little paper man, he suddenly felt a surge of unknown bitterness in his heart. It was indescribable and impossible to relieve, and it made him unconsciously take half a step forward.
"Hey!" Xu Zhaoyi was startled and hurriedly grabbed him and pulled him back.
He thought Qin Sheng was having an illusion.
"Sorry, I scared you, I'm fine." Qin Sheng apologized dryly and patted Xu Zhaoyi's arm to comfort him, but his eyes never left the little paper man.
After a while, he calmed down and said, "Who are you? Why are you stopping us?"
That's right, he noticed that the little paper man suddenly appeared in front of them, but he didn't emit any malice, nor did he have any intention of moving aside. It should be just to stop them.
Xu Zhaoyi looked at the little paper man, then looked at Qin Sheng, who was extremely patient with the little paper man. He didn't know what he was thinking about, but he was cautious and didn't say anything.
After waiting for a long time, the two finally heard a clear and gentle female voice, which said with deep sorrow: "Go back. The danger ahead is not something you can handle."
Xu Zhaoyi blinked, and seeing Qin Sheng remained silent for a moment, he replied for him, "But I heard that the treasures ahead are from the Qin family, collected over generations. Fortune and wealth are sought through risk, so a little danger is nothing. We've finally come this far, and I'd hate to give up halfway."
The paper man moved when he heard this. Xu Zhaoyi felt that it wanted to step aside and let them die, but it hesitated for a moment and finally did not move aside.
"Go back, or you will all die."
This time her tone was much colder, and a cold wind blew around them, making Xu Zhaoyi's bones feel a little cold. This also made him realize that the strength of this female ghost might not be weaker than his.
Xu Zhaoyi poked Qin Sheng and asked him to speak.
Qin Sheng came back to his senses, pursed his lips and said, "Answer me a question, and I'll leave after I hear the answer."
The ghost girl was silent for a moment before she said, "If you're asking if there's treasure in here, I can tell you directly that there isn't, but you might not believe my advice."
"No, that's not what I'm asking."
"Then ask, and then leave quickly after you're done."
After receiving the ghost girl's response, Qin Sheng took a deep breath and said to the lonely paper figure almost buried in the darkness with a complicated expression:
"I just want to know, is your name Gu Mailan?"
