Chapter 65 Remains? Right at Your Feet
At this moment, they arrived at a mountain range. The mountain range was broken, the main peak was cut off, the green dragon was shortened and the white tiger raised its head, with the ominous appearance of "white tiger carrying a corpse".
She took out her compass and tested it; all three dials were inaccurate: the Heavenly Dipper needle floated erratically, the Human Dipper needle flew wildly at an angle, and the Earthly Dipper needle sank, clearly indicating a disorder of Yin and Yang.
The feng shui here is extremely inauspicious and yin. Even during the day, it feels eerie and gloomy, completely different from the place at the foot of the mountain.
What a clever choice! The Celestial Master who selected this place must be quite capable. No wonder the area below the mountain is lush with vegetation, while the trees on the mountain are withered and yellow, overgrown with weeds, and devoid of human presence, with only solitary graves and broken tombstones.
“Let’s split up and search. Miss Shen, you keep an eye on Lu Yifei; he seems to be trying to run away.”
"Yes, Miss Yu."
Indeed, when Lu Yifei saw that their attention was focused on observing the place, he wanted to sneak away and run away.
But she hadn't run two steps before Miss Chen pulled her back, "Where are you going, husband—"
Hearing the word "husband" made Lu Yifei shudder. "Everyone has to go to the bathroom sometimes, right? I'm not a ghost. Can't I even take a piss?"
Miss Shen put him down, but her eyes never left him.
Lu Yifei pretended to urinate, but when he turned around, he saw that Miss Shen was still staring at him. The female ghost really had no sense of shame.
"How can I pee if you keep staring like that?"
"It's alright, my husband. I'll just watch you quietly. Don't feel burdened or pressured. Just pretend I'm not alive. Hmm, you can think of me as an ant. I am a ghost, after all."
Miss Shen looked at him with a gentle gaze, instead of the resentful and cold one, which made him even more terrified and completely numb his urge to urinate.
Lu Yifei had just pulled up his pants when he immediately put them down again, yelling, "I fucking aren't going to pee anymore—"
Lu Yifei not only gave up the idea of running away, but also the idea of urinating. He had no other thoughts now and focused all his attention on finding the abandoned well.
Yu Xiaoluo's clear voice rang out, "The feng shui here is ominous. The location is correct, but everyone should look carefully. It might be covered by weeds. Be careful not to slip and fall into a well—"
Before she could finish speaking, a cry of pain was heard. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw that Lu Yifei, who had just been behind them, was gone. Only a dark hole remained, standing there abruptly. The soil around the hole had collapsed, with fresh breaks, and several pieces of broken, dry vines hung from the edge.
Even Yu Liang started to feel sorry for Lu Yifei, "Is this kid just born unlucky?"
"Alright, let's go check if he's drowned." Yu Xiaoluo looked at Miss Chen.
At this moment, Miss Shen, who had been staring at Lu Yifei, turned and wandered off elsewhere. After all, she needed to cleanse her eyes.
Yu Xiaoluo sighed helplessly and walked towards the cave entrance.
That place should be the abandoned well. Right now, Lu Yifei is probably lying next to Miss Shen's remains.
Fate is truly wondrous and inexplicable.
At this moment, a wail finally came from inside, confirming that they were still alive. "Yu Xiaoluo, Yu Liang, please come and save me! Miss Shen will also be fine."
The desire to save lives prevailed over everything, and he even called out to Miss Shen, but clearly, Miss Shen didn't want to pay him any attention right now.
Yu Xiaoluo and Yu Liang approached and looked down. Lu Yifei, his head covered in straw and his face smeared with dirt, hopping around on his legs, saw them and cried out as if he'd been saved, "Quick, pull me out—I beg you—"
Upon closer inspection, they saw that there were indeed petrified human remains at his feet.
Yu Xiaoluo said with a grin, "Brother Yifei, your mission isn't finished yet, how can you come out? If we pull you up now, you'll have to go back down."
Lu Yifei was so frightened that he forgot even his father's surname, so how could he possibly think of this?
"What kind of mission is it? Can't you just go up and tell me?"
"Miss Shen's remains are right at your feet. By the way, could you pick up a bone and throw it to me so Miss Shen can examine it and see if it's hers? What if it's not hers? Wouldn't all our efforts have been in vain? Brother Yifei, don't you think I'm being thoughtful?"
"You—" Lu Yifei wanted to curse, but swallowed it back, revealing a smile that was more like a grimace. "So thoughtful—thank you—do you guys—have gloves?"
"Of course not, I'm not that particular. Look at my rough skin, why would I carry that thing around? What do you think, Brother Yifei?"
Okay, Lu Yifei closed his eyes, his fingers trembling as he reached out and grabbed a handful of bones. Then, with a cry of "Oh my god!", he threw them upwards, but unexpectedly, he missed and they hit him hard on the head.
His eyes widened like meatballs as he watched the bone fall from his head and roll onto his face, and he fainted.
Yu Liang was speechless. "I thought I was unlucky enough, but I didn't expect this kid to be a hundred or a thousand times unlucky than me. He even fainted. What should I do?"
"I'd rather die than pick it up, it's bad luck." After saying this, he covered his mouth, afraid that Miss Shen would hear him. Fortunately, Miss Shen was not around, otherwise he was really afraid that he would be beaten to death.
"Then wake him up."
Yu Liang wanted to pour the mineral water in his bottle on him, but he felt that would be too wasteful. If he poured it out, there would be no water left to drink. Should he use urine? That would be too indecent. He would never do such a thing in front of two girls, no, one girl and one female ghost.
So he adopted the lowest-carbon and most environmentally friendly method: combining poking him with throwing small stones, using two methods simultaneously.
Lu Yifei finally woke up slowly. After fainting once, he still had to face the cruel reality when he woke up again.
He was numb, truly numb.
He picked up a bone and threw it up. This time, it didn't fall, which was good.
Yu Xiaoluo called Miss Shen, who was wandering around, back. She had been trapped in the painting for too long and had almost no chance to go out for a stroll. Moreover, she couldn't leave the painting. So, she was happy to have this opportunity.
When she came over, she was carrying a bright red lace thin underwear "weapon" in her hand, and it was unclear where the wind had blown it over, or whether it had been dug up by tomb raiders.
She examined it curiously. "Little Luo, what is this? It's really pretty."
Yu Xiaoluo covered her forehead and eyes, "Um—Sister Chen, this—this—this is for holding water."
Miss Shen nodded seriously, "People in this era are so particular, even the containers for holding water are so beautiful, how wonderful. I'm going to keep it and use it to drink water from now on."
Yu Xiaolu waved her hands repeatedly, her forehead beaded with cold sweat, "No, no, no, Sister Chen, the ones you picked up are too dirty, they're not hygienic. I'll buy you new ones later."
