due to his thinness, the bones of his face were unusually prominent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he still seemed somewhat better than Gu Youyou when she first emerged from that dark room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Youyou, observing his frail appearance, was very doubtful whether he could push open the heavy coffin lid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While she was holding her doubts, to her surprise, he moved it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The coffin lid made a heavy muffled sound as it slowly slid to one side under Gu Youyou’s astonished gaze, and within a short while, it had already been moved a third of the way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A gap of that size was enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Youyou waved her hand at him and said, “That’s good, you can rest now!”With an ecstatic struggle, she climbed over the edge of the coffin and laboriously crawled out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Youyou looked around but did not see Uncle Wild Man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t know if he had not returned or if he had come back and left again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finding the man in the room easy to fool, Gu Youyou was delighted and hurried towards the tomb door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Standing in front of the tomb door, she turned back to look at the man in the coffin; he was still standing there, his clear eyes watching her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Youyou paused for a moment, thought, and then said to him, “Whether you understand me or not, I still have to say this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do not drink that medicine!”Having said that, she began to carefully search for the mechanism of the tomb door!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within this tomb chamber, there were intricate murals extending from the ceiling onto the walls and down to the floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Youyou took quite a while to find an abstract painting of a tree signifying a connection between heaven and earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of the leaves on that tree seemed cleaner than the others, smoother to the touch among the rough stones, as if it had often been touched!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, that was it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Youyou joyfully pressed her hand onto it, and before she could even touch the stone leaf, the tomb door started rumbling again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Startled, Gu Youyou hastily retreated and, turning around, bypassed the tomb door to squat dutifully in a corner of the chamber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tomb door opened, and Uncle Wild Man came in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Youyou rolled her eyes and muttered to herself about her bad luck, having encountered him both times she had tried to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon entering, Uncle Wild Man first glanced at the man standing in the coffin, then followed his gaze to Gu Youyou, who was sitting obediently on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though there was no sound, Gu Youyou distinctly saw him snort dismissively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his left hand, he carried a dead wild mountain chicken, while in his right, he held a whimpering wolf cub.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Gu Youyou quickly realized that the creature wasn’t a puppy; it was a wolf cub.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mountain did have wolves, that much was true, although they typically lived in packs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wondered how he had managed to catch one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wolf cub looked much like a typical puppy and was quite endearing, especially since Gu Youyou had been a dog lover in her past life, having raised quite a few dogs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking down, Gu Youyou noticed its leg was injured, staining its white fur red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Uncle Wild Man held it in his hand, and it struggled ineffectually from time to time, seemingly growing weaker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two mute men, one standing outside the coffin and the other inside, faced each other, engaging in a silent exchange.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naturally, Gu Youyou couldn’t understand and just treated it as a spectacle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She observed Uncle Wild Man holding the wild chicken and the wolf cub, gesturing back and forth—she guessed he was asking which one to eat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the pitiful little wolf cub, and wanting to save a living creature, Gu Youyou suddenly wanted to rescue it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not knowing how long she would have to stay in this tomb chamber, keeping another living being, one that could make noise, might alleviate some of the loneliness.\u003C\u002Fp>",696,"2026-06-06T06:54:47.694Z",1,"novelbin.me","8ba56945c4537d24edab12f3df900e58dde8110e181e2a38c957b116368c64eb","the-challenge-of-a-farmhouse-son-in-law-chapter-155","the-challenge-of-a-farmhouse-son-in-law-chapter-153",1812,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-challenge-of-a-farmhouse-son-in-law-cover.jpg"]
