The First Volume of Ghosts Wailing in the Underworld Chapter 56: Old Zhu's Letter Has Something to Say
"Not because of the coercion of these people, but the old man wants to completely eliminate this fierce ghost and still needs to rely on their skills. However, in the cemetery, the explosion of the Feng Shui array was a near miss. The old man deeply knows the ferocity of this ghost, but as for its origin, he is not well-informed, so he also can't find a way to restrain it."
Observing the young friend's Taoist skills are orthodox, someone guessed that the young friend is a true heir of the Taoist sect. Therefore, they want to borrow the young friend's power to defeat this evil creature and ask the young friend to widely invite fellow practitioners to destroy it.
The little friend is calculating, and the old man is also calculating. If this thing comes out, none of us can survive, but if the old man recreates it once, he must be able to delay for a while and bring some hope to the little friend.
The way out is just below the tomb passage, but to get past it, you must kill all those people because their stronghold is right there. After this battle, they will probably retreat, but they won't give up on killing you. If they don't kill all of you here, they'll all die too. A war between all of you is inevitable.
"Alas, the old man can only hold his nose up now."
Chapter 2 The paper had a few words scribbled on it, apparently written separately: LMQBUF[Q
"The old man used some small tricks to find out that the young one is in Hongshan Township, Luoyang City, and has been monitored by those people. However, there's no need to worry, the young one still has some skills. If you have time, you can help rescue him. There's an object on his body, which will resonate with the Fireball Treasure Seal when you arrive at Hongshan."
This treasure has been passed down through generations, please leave that child to me. In return, the old man took out some treasures from the ancient tomb and handed them all over to the young friend, those things were concentrated in a gray package of the tomb raiders' group.
In the great land of China, for some reason, ghosts and monsters are appearing more and more, it should not be like this in such a peaceful and prosperous era, but no matter how hard the old man thinks about it, he can't understand, all he can do is try his best.
Wish little friend escape predicament, together with fellow practitioners eliminate evil creatures.
Old Zou stayed."
Chen Long put down the note and took a deep look at the two words "Lao Chu" before taking out a lighter from his pocket and lighting it.
A spark sprang up and engulfed the paper strip, then gradually went out. Chen Long's eyes flickered on and off, as if he was thinking about something.
When the spark was completely extinguished, he stood up and let out a sigh: "Come on over! What are you standing there for?"
Li Yun walked out of the shadows at dawn, her small face flushed, as if a bit embarrassed: "I came to take a look, don't know if I can help with anything." She glanced at Old Zhu's corpse, and there was a hint of fear in her eyes.
"Go take care of Zhu Xiaocui." Chen Long strode towards the burnt stone house, without looking back. "I'll go see if there are any ceramic jars to hold this old man's ashes."
Li Yun stuck out her tongue, seemingly having some minor complaints about Chen Long. What a boring guy, treating people's daughters like this? She glared at Chen Long's back, thought for a moment, and then headed back the way she came.
After half a day, Chen Long slowly walked back, holding a very small ceramic jar in his hand.
"Old man, this thing is a bit small, just bear with it for now, I'll buy you a better urn when we get out, yeah, the largest one." Chen Long stared at Old Zhu's body for half a moment, muttering to himself before starting to cast his fire spell.
He knew that people like Lao Chu were extremely averse to cremation, believing that burial was the only way to ensure a good reincarnation and peace for future generations. However, since Lao Chu's soul had already dispersed, leaving his body behind was not an option either, so it would have to be taken out and handed over to his son for burial, and Chen Long couldn't control this much anyway.
The flames were extremely high in temperature and did not produce any smoke or dust, so in a short while they had engulfed Lao Chu's body.
Chen Long's forehead was beaded with sweat, but he gritted his teeth and cast another Wind Stabilizing Spell to prevent Old Zhu's ashes from being blown away by the wind. Fortunately, this spell required very little spiritual energy, so Chen Long didn't collapse from exhaustion.
Carefully controlling the wind, he poured the ashes into a ceramic jar, just filling it up, and then let out a breath, wiping away his sweat.
Holding the ashes of Old Zhu, Chen Long and Li Yun reunited. The two then went to the two cars and put edible things and bottled water on their backs, and only then did they carry Zhu Xiaocui towards the Poison Valley.
"Hey, I knew you little guy was born with a lucky life, a praying mantis life, and can't die no matter what." As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the Poison Valley, they saw Jiang Feng squatting there. Jiang Feng forced a smile towards the two of them.
Looking at the unconscious Zhu Xiaocui, Jiang Feng furrowed his brow: "How is she? Is her life in danger?"
"Skin injury, she can wake up tonight, but the blood loss is too much." Chen Long touched his nose and said helplessly, "This woman is also useless, Miss Yin was a good girl, but she was messed up."
"It's not her fault, after all she's a girl!" Li Yun glared at him, somewhat sympathizing with Zhu Xiaocui, "It's all because of your poorly planned scheme, otherwise nothing would have happened."
"Alright, alright, it's all my and Yuan Tian's fault. If we hadn't let the two of them into the house, this wouldn't have happened. And if it was just that one person, you two would definitely be able to take care of him." Jiang Feng mediated, his eyes dimming slightly.
"It's not like I can blame you guys either, after all, there's a huge difference in terms of weapons." Chen Long said calmly.
"Uh, yeah, the other side is indeed too powerful. If it weren't for that ghost coming, we wouldn't know if we could survive." Li Yun also knew that everyone had done their best, and her tone became calmer.
"If that thing hadn't appeared, we would have definitely died." Chen Long added coldly, not caring about Li Yun's angry stare, "With your magical attack power, you can only kill chickens."
Just as Li Yun was about to blow up, Jiang Feng hastily chuckled: "Ah Long underestimated this heroine, Li Yun's sister is a woman who doesn't yield to men, and compared to Hua Mulan, she's not much inferior either."
Li Yun didn't take it kindly: "Who's your sister?"
Chen Long rolled his eyes and glanced at Jiang Feng with ill intentions, saying: "You look very spirited, let you carry Miss Zhu on your back, the two of us are exhausted to death."
Jiang Feng scowled and turned his back on Zhu Xiaocui, saying: "My life is so bitter! I remember a fortune teller said that my handsome face has a noble and wealthy appearance. Now that I'm over 20 years old, where is the opportunity for wealth and nobility?"
"What about you? I see your dark face, do you have a rich and noble appearance? I reckon that old man must have fooled you?" Li Yun looked at Jiang Feng's "strong" physique with an odd expression. "I think you were born to be a laborer, otherwise why would you grow up so dark and strong?"
"Haha, Jiang Paozi, we should respond to the party's call! We must work harder and contribute more, only then can our country become prosperous!" Chen Long also joked.
Jiang Feng glanced at Chen Long with a somewhat "melancholic" expression, looked away for a moment, and then leaned in close to Chen Long, speaking in a low voice: "A-Long, your gasoline is really amazing, how did you do it?"
