Half a month after Yu Jiao’s case was solved, Ming Shu got a ride on Hou Qiang’s tractor again.

This man was much more silent than before.

​ 

“I haven’t had time to thank you for what you did earlier, little Taoist nun,” Hou Qiang said when Ming Shu got off the tractor. “Our family is poor. We don’t have much money. After we prepare enough money, I’ll send it over to you. Little Taoist nun, where do you live?”

The other suspects were all tortured crazy.

Only Zhang Goudan who surrendered himself early looked normal.

If she hadn’t reminded him…

Maybe Zhang Goudan would have been like everyone else.

Ming Shu said, “There is a sword on the windowsill of Zhang Goudan’s house. Give it to me.”

Hou Qiang went back and searched around before finding the sword that Ming Shu had mentioned.

There were rust stains all over the sword, and he couldn’t see any value of it at all.

Hou Qiang sent the sword to Wuliang Mountain for Ming Shu. The Taoist temple had been carried out with a repair. However, apart from looking neat and tidy, it was still worn out… Each part of the Taoist temple revealed the fact that it was very poor.

Basically, all the villagers in the vicinity knew that there was a Taoist temple in Wuliang Mountain.

However, this Taoist temple had long since been abandoned.

Although Hou Qiang was curious, he didn’t dare to ask further.

“Do you know where Zhang Goudan got this sword?” Ming Shu asked while holding the sword.

“Well…” Hou Qiang shook his head. “Zhang Goudan doesn’t have many proper things to do all day. I don’t know where he got this sword.”

In Hou Qiang’s eyes, this was a rusted and useless sword.

Hou Qiang tentatively said, “If you want to know, I can help run errands and ask Zhang Goudan for you, little Taoist nun.”

“Thank you very much.”

“You’re welcome. I’ll let you know when I have any information.”

When Hou Qiang left the mountain, he always felt that something was following him, but when he looked back, he saw nothing.

Ming Shu wiped the sword up, revealing the luster of the sword itself.

The blade was sharp, and the hilt was inlaid with some kind of precious stone, luxurious and exquisite.

If I sell this thing, I’ll definitely be able to buy a lot of snacks…

“Cough, cough…” Ming Shu suppressed this thought. She felt that there was Qi Yu’s breath on the sword.

Although it was very strange…

But that’s what it was.

Ming Shu tried to swing the sword, but there was nothing special about it…

It was just an ancient sword that was many, many years old.

“I said you should put sugar in it!”

“Salt!”

“Sugar!”

“Humph, I won’t argue with you. Let’s go ask elder sister!”

Two little kid ghosts came in from the outside while quarreling with each other.

One of the little ghosts ran faster and said first, “Sister, do you like sweet tofu curd or salty tofu curd?”

Ming Shu was waving the sword. She paused her hand upon hearing this. “Can I have both of them?”

The two little ghosts: “…”

…

Hou Qiang brought news to Ming Shu four days later. The sword was found on the mountain where Yu Jiao’s body was found. However, Zhang Goudan was unwilling to tell him the exact details.

According to Hou Qiang, Zhang Goudan became quite nervous and abnormal when speaking of the sword, so Hou Qiang didn’t dare to ask him deeper.

Ming Shu told the two little ghosts to watch over the house, while she left with the sword in her hand.

The cave had been cleaned up, and even the smell was gone.

Ming Shu used the flashlight to look through the cave carefully, but she didn’t find anything unusual.

Ming Shu stood outside the cave and looked into the distance. She could see Wuliang Mountain and a village not far away.

Ming Shu walked around the mountain and saw nothing else but the mosquitoes that treated her as their dessert.

She caught a rabbit and roasted it. As she was enjoying the meat, she wondered whether the sword had accidentally fallen here, or…

She pressed the ground with the tip of her toes.

Was it below?

If it was down there, where should she get in?

She couldn’t just directly turn the mountain upside down, could she?

This was not a cultivation world.

Ming Shu was still thinking about whether she should turn the mountain upside down. The next day, at noon, she saw a group of people climbing up the mountain.

It was a group of Taoist masters…

And a group of people who looked like an archaeological team.

Their destination was not the mountain, but the endless mountain range behind this mountain after passing it.

Ming Shu quietly followed them.

She saw them stop in a dense forest and begin to set up camps. It seemed that they were planning to fight a protracted war.

Ming Shu waited outside for half a month. She had searched through everything nearby but didn’t see any ghosts.

The group of people didn’t take any action, either.

Until this night. Ming Shu was lying on a tree and rested with her eyes closed.

Rumbling sounds came from the direction of the camps. She jumped down the tree and headed towards them.

The entire camp had collapsed into a mess.

She didn’t see a single living person.

This was not right…

Ming Shu walked around and really didn’t see anyone.

She looked at the collapsed crevice. The crevice was large enough for people to pass through.

Ming Shu took away everything that could be eaten in the camp and went down through the crevice.

The ground beneath collapsed as well. Ming Shu crawled through the crevice for a long time before descending to a place similar to a passageway.

It was so dark that she couldn’t see her hands in front of her.

Ming Shu took out Little Beastie and shook it.

Little Beastie put its claws onto Ming Shu’s hand softly.

Trash picker! What are you doing! It’s too much to disturb others’ sleep!

“Lighten up.”

Little Beastie: “…” I’m not a light bulb!!

Although Little Beastie was so angry that it rolled into a dumpling ball, it still lit up the surroundings.

The passage was about a meter wide, and there were dark marks on the ground. Ming Shu squatted down and took a look. It was blood.

Moreover, there were traces of dragging that extended towards the end of the passage.

Ming Shu walked along the passage. This should be an ancient tomb.

Traps were set everywhere, but many of them had already been destroyed.

Ming Shu jumped over a trap, and as soon as she steadied herself, a man covered with blood pounced out from the dark.

Before the man could pounce on her, he fell to the ground himself with a bang.

Ming Shu patted her chest. It’s so frightening!

The blood man stretched out his hand and said, “Save… save me!”

Ming Shu looked at the man’s clothes carefully. It seemed he was a Taoist master.

“What did you meet?” Ming Shu asked him.

“Save… please… there is… there is…”

The man died before he could finish his sentence.

What a typically cliched plot. The character died before finishing the sentences.

Then, Ming Shu met two more people. One was also a Taoist master, and the other was an ordinary person.

Both of them were dead, so she naturally couldn’t ask anything.

More and more bloodstains appeared on the ground, making it shocking by the sight.

Ming Shu lifted Little Beastie and looked around. There were two doors in front of her. One was clean, and the other was covered with blood in hand shapes. It was like countless people had suddenly rushed into that door.

Ming Shu stood in front of the two doors. Well… which one should she choose?

“Choose one.” Ming Shu poked Little Beastie.

Little Beastie humphed, “The one with more blood.”

Ming Shu walked towards the door that was stained with blood. The stone door was heavy and required a lot of force to push it open.

The sound of the stone door moving was a little loud.

However, it was very quiet inside the stone door, and no monsters popped out.

Ming Shu walked through the stone door. There was still a passageway. There seemed to be an exit in the front, emitting a faint light.

Ming Shu walked a few steps to the exit, and her vision suddenly became wide.

At this moment, she was standing on a floating trestle.

Looking around, the entire space was round.

It was like a circular building, with space in the middle.

She was only standing on one of the floors. From top to bottom, there were several floors and each floor had a trestle path.

In the middle of the space was a black coffin.

This tomb was actually built downwards, but when she walked along the way, she didn’t feel she was walking downwards at all.
