Chapter 49 Castles in the Air

Chapter 49 Castles in the Air

Mr. Gongsun looked at the pangolin and said sarcastically, "There is still a pangolin. It is useless to keep you. You can't get through a wall."

The pangolin lowered its head, muttered something, and hid behind me, probably a little afraid of Mr. Gongsun.

I said: "Why are you bullying a child? If you have the ability, just try to cut it open."

Mr. Gongsun looked at me and muttered a few words. He didn't care about me anymore. He looked at my grandfather and asked my grandfather what he should do.

At this moment, Ma Xiaolan, who had been silent until now, suddenly exclaimed: "What is that?"

I saw Ma Xiaolan raising her head and looking up, her brows slightly wrinkled, her expression very surprised.

We all looked up. The wall on the top was as smooth as a mirror, and many pavilions were reflected on the transparent wall. There was an opening in the middle of the two rows of pavilions.

"It's an entrance!" Mr. Gongsun exclaimed.

I looked at each other and looked at the entrance above.

After a few of us thought about it and couldn't open the door, we finally decided to go up from the hole to see what was up there.

The top looks like a scattered group of buildings reflected in the water. Such a group of buildings, seen from below, is too clear, and it is impossible to guess whether it is real or just a mirage.

.

The ground is quite far from the top, and there is nothing to rely on here. In addition, the entrance of the cave is in the middle, so there is no way for us to go up.

Just when we were thinking of a way, the pangolin said: "Give me the rope and I will go up and pull you up."

I was a little worried about the pangolin. After all, no one could tell what would be in the hole above, so I felt a little bad about letting the pangolin go up there.

Mr. Gongsun leaned into my ear and said: "You don't have to worry. You saved his life anyway. Without you, he would have been cooked and eaten by the snake spirit. Besides, he is also a goblin. You think so much."

What to do."

I didn't listen to Mr. Gongsun's words, but the pangolin said a few words later, "Don't worry, I'll have no problem."

Later, Ma Xiaolan found the rope and handed it to the pangolin. The pangolin changed from its human form back to its original appearance. Mr. Gongsun caught the pangolin, then tied the rope to the pangolin's body, and then threw it up with great strength.

Mr. Gongsun threw the pangolin into the hole above without any effort.

The rope was pulled up a lot, and I felt the pangolin walking to the side for a while. After a while, the head of the pangolin, which had transformed into a human form, poked out from the top, "I have fixed the rope, you guys pull it."

You can come up with the rope."

I originally wanted to go up first, but Ma Xiaolan reached out and stopped me. My grandfather also asked Ma Xiaolan to go up first to investigate.

I said to myself, letting women and children go into battle is really not what I like to do, but after all, it was my grandfather's order, so I didn't say anything. My grandfather must have his own reasons for doing this.

Because Ma Xiaolan was not seriously injured and because the pangolin was helping her, she was as agile as a monkey and jumped up in an instant.

Mr. Gongsun clicked his tongue and said, "These legs are really the best!"

Only then did I realize that Mr. Gongsun, this pervert, had been staring at Ma Xiaolan’s thighs. Ma Xiaolan, wearing a cheongsam, climbed up and Gongsun could see the entirety of her legs.

I slapped Mr. Gongsun on the back of his head and grabbed Mr. Gongsun's neck, "Don't give me any ideas about this woman!"

Mr. Gongsun looked at me in surprise, "What do you mean? Could it be that this woman is your favorite?"

"That's pretty much what it means." I said.

"Hahaha, I didn't expect that you have such unique taste. You like this kind of iceberg beauties. They have a good figure and are okay. Don't worry, this is not my thing. I like hot beauties." Mr. Gongsun said with a smile,

I don't know what erotic scene came to mind, with a drooling and lewd look.

My grandfather reached out and patted Mr. Gongsun on the shoulder, "Your saliva is about to drip out, please be careful with your image."

"We don't have a pretty girl, so why do we need to look good?" I said disapprovingly, and then asked, "Which one of you will go up first?"

As soon as Mr. Gongsun finished speaking, Ma Xiaolan said: "Mr. Long, come up and take a look! There is no danger at the moment."

After my grandfather heard what Ma Xiaolan said, without saying a word, he grabbed the rope and quickly got down on it. My grandfather's movements were so fast that Mr. Gongsun and I were stunned. Although I have always known that my grandfather has extraordinary skills, we haven't yet.

I have seen with my own eyes that my grandfather was able to go up into the cave so easily, as if he had some Qinggong skills.

"What are you still doing? Master Gongsun, stop drunken dreams." My grandfather shouted from above.

Only then did we react. I grabbed my body. Because my body couldn't bear it, Mr. Gongsun kept holding me up. Then my grandfather and the others pulled the rope up, and I basically climbed up without much effort. Fortunately, I

It was relatively thin to begin with, so they didn't put much effort into it.

Mr. Gongsun tutted below and said that I was as light as something. I guess I had no flesh on my body, just a skeleton.

I said: "It's almost done. After all this hard work, skin and bones are already pretty good."

Next, Mr. Gongsun tied the lower backpack and equipment to the rope. We first pulled the equipment up, and then pulled Mr. Gongsun up as well.

After arriving at the top, we packed up our things and put on our backpacks. When Ma Xiaolan pulled me, she noticed that I had a slight fever and asked me if I could carry a backpack. If not, give the bag to her.

I glanced at Ma Xiaolan. Ma Xiaolan was only carrying a small white backpack. Unlike us who were carrying heavy equipment, Ma Xiaolan looked like she was traveling, not treasure hunting.

"No need, I can hold on." I said after putting the bag on my back. I was really embarrassed to have a woman like Ma Xiaolan carry such heavy equipment.

"How about I carry it?" The pangolin hesitated for a moment, then raised its head and looked at me seriously.

"I'm fine." I couldn't help but reach out and touch the pangolin's head. This goblin that has lived for thousands of years looks particularly cute.

Mr. Gongsun muttered that I was the one to blame, and then he couldn't help but ask me if I should put the important things with him.

Before I could speak, my grandfather said no.

Each of us carries different things with us, and we distribute water, food and other things evenly to prevent us from getting separated. Just in case, my grandfather said, let me carry the things.

Mr. Gongsun chuckled and said 3a, "That's right, only Mr. Long, the situation happens frequently every time."

I was wondering, that was not what I thought, and I didn’t know if it was because of my physical condition or just being unlucky. Inexplicable things always happened. Is it because of my yin and yang eyes that I always attract dirty things? It’s just a ghost.

Forget it, what I summoned may not be a ghost, and I don’t know what it is.

After we gathered our things at the entrance of the cave, we turned around and took a closer look at where we had arrived.

As soon as we turned around, Mr. Gongsun and I both took a breath and opened our mouths in surprise. We couldn't say a word. All we could do was stare at the surroundings.

The place we were in was exactly the same as the reflection we saw below. It was a complex of buildings made of many wooden buildings.

Each wooden building looked extremely luxurious, and they were connected by narrow bluestone roads. I frowned and looked at this place. These buildings reminded me of the legendary affair in Lijiang.

The architecture in the capital is very similar to the style here.

Thinking that we should be in Yunnan now, the style is similar to Lijiang, but there is nothing special about it.

What we came up to was a wellhead with a very low edge. It looked like a hole. The reason why we knew it was a well was because there was a fence around it and a wooden sign erected on the side that vaguely read

Two characters, one looks very complicated, like a pictogram, but even my grandfather didn’t recognize it, and the other is exactly the same as the modern tic-tac-toe.

Mr. Gongsun said: "Then there is no need to think about it. This is just a well."

We didn't pay much attention to what this well was about, but we became curious. It was like a village. This place was neither big nor small.

If such an abandoned village appeared in other places, we would not be surprised. However, finding such a village in such a dark underground place surprised us and was difficult to understand. We did not know that such a place had ever existed.

What kind of people have survived.

"I always feel that this place is a bit weird." Ma Xiaolan stood next to my grandfather and said with a frown.

"Nonsense, how can this place not be weird?" Mr. Gongsun muttered, "But this is obviously underground, why is it so bright? Is there any sunlight coming down?"

Mr. Gongsun raised his head and looked up. I also looked up. At a very high place, what we saw was not the sky, but the dark stone top. On the top, located in the center of the entire village, there was a huge bead.

It was emitting light, illuminating the entire place as if it were daytime.

No wonder, when we came out, we almost thought we had left the ancient tomb and were outside.

"It should be the Night Pearl." My grandfather took a look at the pearl above and said, "Such a big one, it's really rare."

Mr. Gongsun said that it would take him a few lifetimes to take this thing out. After he finished speaking, he sighed in admiration and said, if it wasn't too high to reach, he would just take it off.

My grandfather told Mr. Gongsun not to itch his hands too much. Don't touch anything in this place casually. Don't touch anything until you know who the owner is.

Mr. Gongsun followed my grandfather in a hurry, saying as he walked: "Look, Mr. Long, you are looking down on me now. How can I be so unreasonable? After all, I am also a member of the Gongsun family.
