Chapter 202: I, Xu Que, Have Returned!
In the imperial mausoleum.
Xu Que had already come up from underground. After taking a bath in the magma, the fire attribute of the Pluto Prison Suppression Body had reached perfection, and he felt much more energetic.
However, that Xiao Yan black robe had suffered. He forgot to take it off when entering the magma, and Xu Que had underestimated the high temperature of the magma, so it had already turned into ashes!
At this moment, he could only change into a scholar's robe, step on the Cloud-Flowing Boots, and walk up from underground step by step in an extremely dashing manner.
Returning to the tomb chamber, the souls of Jin Dapang and the others were still squatting in place, motionless.
It seemed that their fortune this time was great. They had been in a deep sleep, but their realms were constantly rising, and their ethereal bodies had now become solid.
Xu Que didn't want to disturb them. Anyway, he would have to come back after going out. At that time, he would exchange for another Soul-Locking Tower and take them out as his underlings!
However, the road out was obviously not going to be smooth!
Xu Que rushed back to the previous tomb chamber along the original path.
As a result, when he looked up, the hole he had smashed open had disappeared!
"Damn it, is this a ghost? It was clearly this tomb chamber, how did it change?" Xu Que was very shocked.
He was very sure that when he fell, it was in this tomb chamber. The footprints on the ground were enough to prove it!
However, above this tomb chamber now was a ceiling, only two meters away from his head.
This definitely wasn't right. When he smashed through the tomb wall and fell, it took at least several minutes, and he had used the Three Thousand Thunder Movement to sweep down quickly!
Logically speaking, the ceiling of this tomb chamber should have been at least several hundred meters high. Now it had shrunk to two meters, and the hole he smashed was gone!
This was truly a ghost!
Xu Que was stunned. He immediately took out the Endless Blade from the system package, "whoosh", his figure suddenly swept up, and he slashed at the ceiling with one sword!
"Boom!"
In an instant, countless broken stones fell, and the bricks on the ceiling were shattered, but... the back of the bricks was solid soil!
Xu Que widened his eyes and summoned the system!
"System, what is going on?"
"Ding, after detection, this place is covered by restrictions and can only be dug by manpower!" The system responded.
Xu Que was stunned. Wasn't this the same as when he came in?
It was simple to dig down from above, but it was difficult to dig out from below. If he wasn't careful, he might bury himself!
"That's not right! Where is the hole I dug when I came in?" Xu Que asked again, puzzled.
"The host only entered a teleportation array, not directly above this place!" The system responded again, simultaneously listing a route diagram for Xu Que.
Xu Que understood as soon as he saw it, and the corners of his mouth twitched immediately.
The restrictions of this ancient tomb were too damn insidious. No wonder they said no one who entered could ever get out.
It turned out that the entire ancient tomb was wrapped in a huge teleportation array. When entering, although he smashed open a grave-robbing hole, as soon as he stepped in, it was a teleportation array, and he would be randomly teleported to a certain position in the ancient tomb.
It was the same when Xu Que came in, but the power of that teleportation array was too small, so he mistook that pulling force for the weightlessness of falling, causing this misunderstanding!
So no matter what, he was effectively trapped now!
"It looks like I have to drive the excavator again!" Xu Que was full of helplessness and summoned the excavator he had rented earlier.
However, the system prompted: "Twelve hours have passed, the excavator's usage period has expired. Please pay 500 points of Acting Cool to use it again!"
"Damn it! Here we go again."
Xu Que was almost furious. This system was simply too much of a profiteer.
But calculating it, twelve hours had indeed passed, but he only had five hundred and some points of Acting Cool left. How could he waste them like this!
"No, this time I won't be scammed by you no matter what. I can get out without an excavator!"
Xu Que suddenly remembered something, directly rejected the system's proposal. 500 points of Acting Cool, heh, this King of Acting Cool won't let you earn a single cent!
He remembered very clearly that the souls of Jin Dapang and the others had said that the old beggar had come here more than a hundred years ago and taken away a night-luminous cup.
Since that old guy could get out, he definitely could too, as long as he found the road that old guy took out...
Thinking of this, Xu Que took the Kirin Ink Jade out of his bosom, studied it carefully, and at the same time, his wrist moved, pouring a bit of True Essence into it!
The jade pendant began to emit a faint black halo, and at the same time, accompanied by the aura of the old beggar, it permeated the surroundings!
Xu Que walked a few steps to the left, the halo dimmed slightly, and when he walked a few steps to the right, the halo slowly brightened again.
"Yo ho, it turns out it's that simple!"
Xu Que was overjoyed. If that old beggar had dug a passage back then, he must have left behind Dharma power, and the aura would be more intense, and the Kirin Ink Jade would be able to sense that place.
With this, Xu Que began to move forward according to the halo of the Kirin Ink Jade.
Once the halo dimmed, he changed direction, and once the halo became strong, he strode forward!
Cycling like this, Xu Que walked deeper and deeper, finally arriving in front of a wall, and the Kirin Ink Jade had become completely bright.
And in the corner of that wall, there was exactly a hole, and a few words were carved next to the hole, but too much time had passed, and after more than a hundred years, the handwriting had long since blurred!
Xu Que was too lazy to look more, squatted down, and probed into the hole!
"Eh? Why is it pitch black ahead? Is the exit blocked?"
After Xu Que took a look, he was a bit puzzled, but he continued to move forward.
After all, this was the only road he could take now. If it really didn't work, he would consider exchanging for an excavator with the system.
But this passage was too long, even rising and falling, winding and twisting. Xu Que had traveled for a full two hours on this road!
He began to feel that something was wrong. Where did the old beggar dig this passage to? Two hours of travel was enough to run around the entire imperial mausoleum several times!
"Forget it, I've already walked this far, there's no reason to turn back!"
Xu Que frowned and continued to move forward, while also speeding up, performing the Three Thousand Thunder Movement, and sweeping forward in the passage.
This time, it was fortunate that he had enough patience, and he traveled for several more hours, finally seeing a glimmer of light ahead. Xu Que was completely convinced!
"That old beggar is sick! He dug a passage that actually takes almost a whole day to walk!"
The corners of Xu Que's mouth twitched fiercely, and he also admired that old beggar. This was crazy enough, normal people couldn't do this!
But being able to get out, Xu Que also breathed a sigh of relief. At least he saved 500 points of Acting Cool, which was worth being happy about.
He sped up, his figure turned into a phantom, and he swept toward the front quickly!
Whoosh!
Accompanied by the fresh air blowing toward his face, Xu Que finally saw the light of day again, and his figure swept out of the passage.
But the next moment, he was dumbfounded.
The exit of this passage was actually a rockery on the edge of Daming Lake!
"Returned directly to the Imperial City?"
Xu Que was in disbelief. That old beggar really knew how to toss things. It wasn't just digging an exit, he actually dug into the Imperial City in one breath, and the exit was chosen so poetically, actually placing it by Daming Lake!
Amazing, my brother, this old beggar must have been a lunatic a hundred years ago!
"Heh heh, now... I, Xu Que, have returned!"
Xu Que smiled coldly, patted the clothes on his body, and looked around. The sky had already darkened, night had fallen, there were very few pedestrians on the street, only the villa in the center of Daming Lake was brightly lit at this time!
"Right, Lady Ya is also a member of the Ji family, finding her to ask for tears seems even simpler!"
Xu Que suddenly brightened his eyes, chuckled, and his figure instantly turned into a phantom, sweeping across the sky toward the villa!
The villa was covered by a layer of restrictions, but this could not stop him.
This kind of trash restriction could not be compared with those in the imperial mausoleum at all. With Xu Que's powerful Divine Sense, he directly crushed his way in, penetrated the restriction, and did not alarm anyone at all!
According to his previous impression, Xu Que moved in the dark toward the backyard of the villa.
A few book boys passed by on the way, but Xu Que did not intend to expose himself, sneaking all the way to Lady Ya's boudoir, preparing to knock on the door and enter.
As a result...
"Young Master Li..." A soft call from Lady Ya suddenly came from the boudoir.
Xu Que was instantly shocked. Damn it, how did she discover me?
