The cloth was removed from Li Mochou's mouth, and Li Mochou gave Lin Bufan a charming smile: "I knew you would remember the friendship from that rainy night and come to save me."
A flicker of emotion crossed Xiaolongnu's eyes as she was surprised by Lin Bufan's arrival. "You scoundrel, I never expected it would be you who came to save me."
Gongsun Lü'e completely untied the ropes binding the two women and urged them, "You should leave with Young Master Lin quickly, lest my father catch you again."
It would have been better if she hadn't said those words. As soon as she did, Gongsun Zhi flew into a rage: "You unfilial daughter, you're helping outsiders instead of your father! You might as well die with them!"
He kicked off the ground, and with a loud crack, the floorboards triggered a mechanism...
The ground where Xiaolongnu, Li Mochou, and Gongsun Lüe were standing immediately burst open, revealing a dark, seemingly endless abyss below.
Before the three women could even scream in fright, they had already fallen.
Is there a trap?
Lin Bufan remembered that in the original story, the trap was clearly in Gongsun Zhi's study, so how come there was one below the alchemy room as well?
The alchemy room and the study are not far apart, and they seem to lead to the same place below—a crocodile pond, surrounded by many love flowers.
If you fall in, you'll either be eaten by crocodiles or fall into a field of love flowers and become poisoned by them.
Another possibility is that he escaped the crocodiles and the love flowers, miraculously survived, and crawled to a safe place.
He lives off a jujube tree, spends the rest of his life eating jujubes, and incidentally cultivates the divine skill of spitting out jujube pits as hidden weapons.
That's right, living down there is a notorious shrew—Qiu Qianchi.
She was Gongsun Zhi's wife, Gongsun Lü'e's mother, and also the younger sister of Qiu Qianren, the Iron Palm Water-Walking Master.
"Gongsun Zhi, you can even harm your own daughter, you may leave now."
Enraged, Lin Bufan kicked Gongsun Zhi down as well.
Turning their heads, they saw the Golden Wheel Monk and his disciples. Yin Kexi, Xiao Xiangzi, and Nimo Xing and their group gloated and secretly covered their mouths to laugh.
"Laughing? You can all go down now."
Lin Bufan unleashed his Dragon-Capturing Technique, an unstoppable force that pulled the Golden Wheel Monk and his entourage towards him, then kicked them into the crocodile pond below…
Zhou Botong, in a playful mood, smiled at Lin Bufan and said, "No need to kick me, I'll jump down myself."
Well……
You have no grudge against me, there's no need for you to go down there.
After Zhou Botong jumped down, Lin Bufan shook his head and jumped down as well.
Crocodiles, love flower poison, and jujube pit hidden weapons are nothing to Lin Bufan.
Most importantly... the whole family should be together.
