Chapter 433: We need to deploy the house-guarding divine beast!

Sister An Qi, how did you feel last night?

Zuo Wei asked curiously.

When she saw An Qi yesterday, An Qi seemed to have fallen ill.

An Qi glanced around and whispered, "Too brutal!"

Zuo Wei nodded, "Your description is spot on! Yes!"

An Qi said, "I'm afraid that even if we had a few more like us, we still wouldn't be his match."

Zuo Wei nodded, then frowned and asked, "How come there's no bayonet seeing a rainbow? Could it be that you, Sister An Qi, previously..."

An Qi said, "Still talking about me, you're no different."

Zuo Wei said, "I'm not the same! I have a boyfriend, just kept in a box. You wouldn't be too, would you?"

An Qi blushed, waved her hand, and said, "Let's not talk about this, okay? Let's talk about why he suddenly had us come back this time; I find it strange."

Hmm?

Zuo Wei looked puzzled.

An Qi recalled, "Last night, at that moment... suddenly, he stopped, got off his horse, pressed his ear to the ground—what a strange move."

The two speculated.

Of course they couldn't guess anything.

Finally the topic turned to Lin Feng.

This time there was no joking.

Both spoke more seriously about their relationship with Lin Feng.

"Our instructor, this person! I know him: any woman he touches becomes off-limits, same for others, you and I are the same."

As she said this, Zuo Wei wore a look of happiness.

An Qi is not as naive as Zuo Wei, but she had already thought about this problem and figured it out.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have gone out at night to look for Lin Feng.

"From now on! We're not just best friends, we're also true sisters..." An Qi said with a smile.

Zuo Wei nodded, "Yeah! We'll join forces and defeat... other fox spirits!"

Of course, this is a joke.

An Qi shook her head.

Even without joking, just Guo Yanru alone is someone they can't defeat.

Moreover, there's also Han Xiang.

From now on!

Let's live peacefully and quietly!

Together with Lin Feng... afterwards, it will be a happy life!

November 1.

Last night there was thunder; unexpectedly, early this morning the weather suddenly turned much colder.

Lin Feng, Zhao Xiaoyang, and Liu Erwa drove three cars, returning via the original route to that previous grassland.

The tools that needed to be brought were basically all there.

On the rear seat of Lin Feng's knight, daily necessities were piled high.

Pure water, canned food, sausage...

Yesterday this place was bustling; now it's desolate.

In the afternoon, sleet started to fall.

The wind blowing on the face felt like a knife cut.

Lin Feng opened his phone and checked the historical weather.

Fortunately, although it may snow nearby, the snow won't be heavy.

The downside is that the weather turned cold, the ground hardened, making it hard to dig.

After Lin Feng pointed out the digging spot, Zhao Xiaoyang and Liu Erwa got to work.

As for Lin Feng.

Holding the telescope, he was on lookout duty.

By the way, observe the nearby terrain.

Generally speaking, this area is relatively high; even if dug down 300 meters, there would be no groundwater.

Otherwise, that place a dozen li away would already be a lake.

The hole dug by Zhao Xiaoyang and Liu Erwa is about three meters in diameter.

The several-meter-thick layer on the surface, frozen, is indeed hard to dig.

It took a full three days to break through that layer.

Next, rock appeared; fortunately it's not especially hard granite.

Their progress wasn't fast, averaging about three meters per day.

As for the excavated stones, they were hauled by car several li away and dumped on a bald mountain.

Thus, it took a full month; on the afternoon of December 2 at 2 PM, they finally reached a depth of over a hundred meters underground.

The underground space was broken through.

The three didn't immediately go down.

Instead, they inserted several steel rebars at the mouth, laid a plastic sheet, and set up a tent.

At the critical moment, we must absolutely avoid any mishap.

The reason he was so cautious was that Lin Feng had discovered that some herdsmen had recently passed by nearby.

Many things are ruined at the final step.

Fortunately, nothing happened that afternoon.

At night, darkness fell.

Zhao Xiaoyang watched from above as Lin Feng and Liu Erwa, carrying oxygen tanks, descended to the cave bottom via a long rope.

They had dug over a hundred meters, and there was still over a hundred meters to the cave bottom—over two hundred meters in total!

The air inside the cave was damp, with some standing water.

Liu Erwa was bold, but even with a sweep of his flashlight, he still got a big fright.

Because ahead stood two statues, each over ten meters tall, with beast heads and human bodies, wearing armor.

The statues looked ferocious and frightening.

Most striking were their two eyeballs, which were bright red.

"Whoosh~"

A strange gust of wind swept in.

Lin Feng's ears were sharp; he heard a terrifying sound coming from deep within the cave.

It sounded like crying, yet also like a shrill, miserable scream.

Sweeping the flashlight again, strange characters were carved into the stone wall behind the statues.

Lin Feng recognized it as ancient Mongolian script.

It was a curse..

"Erwa, do you believe there are ghosts in this world?"

Lin Feng asked.

Liu Erwa first shook his head, then nodded.

"Speak up!"

Lin Feng said dissatisfiedly.

Liu Erwa said, teeth chattering: "Brother, I feel like someone is blowing cold air on my neck."

Lin Feng turned on the walkie-talkie: "Xiaoyang, pull us up."

Zhao Xiaoyang responded.

Then he pressed the switch.

The rope slowly rose, pulling Liu Erwa and Lin Feng upward.

Suddenly…

"Click!"

At a point several tens of meters above the cave bottom, the buckle of Liu Erwa's safety rope suddenly snapped.

Fortunately, Lin Feng reacted quickly and grabbed Liu Erwa.

Liu Erwa screamed in terror.

Fortunately, nothing else happened afterward, and the two safely returned to the surface.

"Brother, what happened?"

Zhao Xiaoyang looked at Liu Erwa's frightened expression, furrowed his brow, and asked.

Lin Feng furrowed his brows, glanced at the pitch-black cave, and said: "The scientific explanation is that there is a mechanism below that uses airflow to produce strange sounds, and combined with other spatial conditions, it causes us to hallucinate and feel fear. The superstitious saying is that there is… a ghost down there!"

Zhao Xiaoyang gritted his teeth and said: "Brother, let me go down! I'm not afraid!"

"Don't!"

Lin Feng waved his hand and said: "We'd better stick to what our ancestors taught! Though I myself have plenty of killing intent, for some reasons I believe ghosts exist, so… I can only protect myself."

Having said that, Lin Feng thought, I need to let our house-guarding divine beast make a run!

Moreover, ancient tombs often contain viruses; let Qi Yao bring some tools—maybe we can find a rare virus!

Let's do that!

After making that decision, Lin Feng had Liu Erwa and Zhao Xiaoyang first seal the cave entrance.

He himself ran outside the tent and called Qi Yao's phone.
