"Partners, of course, have to be together." Lang Hongyi gave a sparkling explanation, and at the end he gave me a look that said, "Are you stupid?"
I could only touch my nose and get down to business, telling myself in my heart that this kid just talks a little, not that he doesn’t know how to quarrel with others!
I looked around in this house buried underground. Apart from the most conspicuous statues, there was nothing else of value here.
I chose a position facing the statue and stood there, with my left hand on my hips and my right hand stretched out. With enough momentum, I started to curse.
"Grandma Bai, don't think that I don't know anything if you don't show up. With a big family, the temple doesn't want it, and the villagers who worship you don't care. Are you unwilling to come out and take responsibility or do you feel shameless!"
In rural areas, it is very common for people to act bad and scold people on the street, but I really don’t dare to criticize this statue.
Lang Hongyi looked at me foaming at the mouth with some confusion. Although he didn't understand what I wanted to do, he didn't step forward to stop me.
The more I curse, the smoother I get!
"Don't pretend you can't see what kind of virtue Hongying is now. Is there any handwriting on her body? Don't think I didn't see the eye-catching white light when she was attacked. And Blacksmith Song..."
"Although he was a pitiful person during his lifetime, he became a resentful spirit with your help. Look what evil he has done. Don't think that hiding is the end... If you don't come out, your sins will be even more serious. If you practice... you still practice nonsense.
Ah, repair!”
At first, the statue didn't change at all. After I mentioned that they were helping others, the statue's eyes slowly closed.
The stone sculpture can close its eyes on its own, which shows that the Bai family's immortal family is hiding here, which confirms my previously uncertain conjecture.
My mouth was a little dry when I cursed. As soon as I raised my hand, all the remaining things on the table in front of me were thrown to the ground, making a loud splashing noise.
"Lang Hongyi, let me draw some talismans. We will go out to fight Hongying at night and wipe the butt of these old hedgehogs!"
All the charms I prepared before have been used up. Now I have a gun but no bullets. I will seize the time to prepare before I can be disturbed.
After the Bai family heard my scolding, I gave them some time to reflect. If they don't show up, I will deal with them later.
Lang Hongyi came over to help me lay out the things I needed to draw the talisman, and asked in a low voice, "You mean the Bai family is here? The reason why Hongying is so strong is the work of the Bai family?"
"That's right, Hongying was about to be hurt by us several times yesterday. The white light on her wedding dress blocked it for her, and we were able to hurt her in a short period of time. It's not that no one in the Bai family has such ability!"
If the skill were Hongying's, she wouldn't need Blacksmith Song to help her kill people, and she wouldn't be lenient to us.
As early as we tried to stop her from swallowing or hurting her, we were dealt with!
Drawing talisman requires peace of mind. Not to mention the scolding just now, all the turbid anger in my heart was vented. With the help of God, I finished painting a few finished products in one go.
It was just that when I tried to draw another difficult water-bending talisman at the end, it was scrapped by just one stroke!
After packing up the drawn charms, Lang Hongyi had already taken out the food in his backpack, and we continued to live an ordinary life with bread and mineral water.
Sitting in an open space in the house, eating and drinking, we happened to be facing the direction of the door, which was now covered with thick soil. If we didn't pay attention, we would have thought we were in a house on the ground.
"How many small holes are there here?" I stuffed my mouth with bread and noticed that in the hidden position behind the threshold, several grapefruit-sized holes had been dug out of the soil, and the holes were quite deep.
If you put your hand in, you can't touch the bottom.
"Maybe some animal dug it out and regarded this place as its own territory."
Lang Hongyi's unintentional words gave me enlightening advice. I excitedly gestured to a certain animal with its approximate size. The more I gestured, the more I felt that I had found the right place!
"Lang Hongyi, what can something of this size and roundness be? No matter what, a mouse can't grow so fat. These 80% are hedgehog holes!"
I stood up excitedly and looked around the house for tools that could be used to dig up the soil. Unfortunately, there was no one who could take advantage of it.
Unexpectedly, Lang Hongyi pulled out a folding engineering shovel from his backpack and handed it to me.
I was so happy that I wanted to give him a bear hug. Who would have thought that he would be carrying this on his back when he went out to work.
"That's great. I brought all the things I brought with me. I'll give you a credit when I get back!"
"I won't necessarily encounter anything when I come out with you. I can bring everything I can think of. The preparation for this is to go to the grave with you again. If we encounter anything, we can dig up the ground!"
I touched my nose and didn’t want to admit it. It was really like this. Look at the difference between us now and in the tomb. Lang Hongyi was really right!
Don’t think about anything else, just dig it!
Near those few small holes, I rounded up the ordnance shovel and dug straight away, with a fierce expression on my face. I wished I could discover the existence of the round hedgehog with the next shovel, pull it out and clean it up, and then I can get rid of my hatred!
Lang Hongyi and I took turns replacing each other, and the progress was not slow.
The soil in front of us collapsed not long ago. It was relatively soft and easy to dig into. It didn't take long for us to dig into some of the inner parts. There was indeed a cave inside.
The first two or three caves were developed into a transportation network extending in all directions. This was the first time I knew that the crafts that ants and mice can do, it turns out that hedgehogs can also do underground castles!
We had to dig out almost all the dirt at the door, and the inside of the house was extremely messy. The physical exertion was still considerable. As non-productive people, the palms of our hands were so worn.
My unhealthy little temper started to show up again, and my evil little thoughts popped up one after another.
Watering, this is just a temporary idea, we don't have a lot of water now.
As soon as I finished speaking, Lang Hongyi started to pick up firewood, and I prepared a lighter in embarrassment.
Snapping in the hand.
"Let's just pour boiling water, and the effect will be more obvious. You said that the Bai family is good at medicine, so it won't hurt if you get burned, right?"
Bad... damage...
This is how I would evaluate myself now.
But I can't help it. The Bai family is obviously here, but they avoid seeing it, pretending to be a big-tailed wolf. I don't have to fight hard, and they won't be moved at all.
Now it's just a last resort, saying this, anyway, we don't have much water to waste, let's scare Bai Jiaxian first!
The pile of firewood is ready, and the yellow paper igniter will be lit soon...
A voice calling for a stop suddenly came from behind the sculpture, and in this semi-enclosed underground room, an inexplicable wind suddenly blew out the yellow paper in my hand.
"Stop, stop, you can't do this, I'll just come out..."
