Chapter 17 Strike the West for the Prince

We walked around the old house, and in the end Gao Ming didn't point out any other problems except the well.

The well is now dry. There is a water pipe connected to the outside of the well. It provides water in summer and shuts off water in winter. This is the village's rule.

I poked my head and took a look into the well. Because it had been abandoned for many years, there was nothing except some accumulated dust and fallen leaves. It was so dark that I couldn't see the bottom.

At this time Gao Ming smiled and said: "Okay, there is nothing to see in this house. Let's go to the ancestral graves."

As he spoke, he nodded towards me and said, "Boss Lin, please lead the way."

I quickly took everyone to continue to the Bai family's ancestral grave. It was already past six o'clock, and the sky in the mountains was already a little dark. The entire mountain col was eerie, and the mountain wind blew, making us shiver.

Dahuang has the weakest bones in his body. I saw him trembling and almost being blown to death. I quickly asked the old cat to take off his clothes and put them on Dahuang, and then continued to move forward.

The ancestral tomb of the Bai family has become increasingly depressed after the last battle between the Wang family and the Bai family. It was here that the crazy Taoist senior made his debut in front of us, but found a less honorable way to escape.

Looking at this, Rujun couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect to come here again today, alas..."

I knew that when Rujun saw this, he would think of the rebellion of the Wang family, so I quickly said: "Don't think about the past."

Rujun smiled and nodded.

After Gao Ming arrived at the cemetery, the expression on his face became serious, and he was sweating coldly, as if he was facing a formidable enemy.

He walked around the entire Bai family ancestral tomb many times, checking almost every tomb, which was a bit endless.

We were bored, so we sat around and chatted outside the ancestral grave. The old cat picked up some dry firewood and branches, and I dug a hole with sharper branches and the Moon-Chasing Sword, and lit a bonfire directly here.

The few of us were having a good time, and the topic of our chat centered around the simple but profound question of what Rujun saw in me and why he agreed to my pursuit.

We chatted for a long time, and finally came to only one conclusion, that is, Rujun must be blind.

I know these people are mostly joking, so I’m not angry. Anyway, now Rujun has promised me, and I’m considered a sweetheart. As for what others say, I don’t care at all. The more others think I’m not worthy.

If you are like you, I will take advantage of you.

As I was talking, I suddenly felt a dark wind blowing directly towards my back. When I looked back, I saw a pale and pale face suddenly appeared in the light of the fire.

Although I already recognized this face as Bai Lanshan, it still scared me to the point of breaking into a cold sweat.

"I'll go, could you please stop showing up in such a panic!" I whispered, almost missing a slap.

Bai Lanshan smiled, sat down next to Rujun, and said: "Lin Yang, you are also a person who has experienced life and death, why don't you have such courage? I see you are talking so lively, what are you talking about?

"

Bai Lanshan is different from Rujun. She is a pure ghost, so she has an obvious repulsion towards campfires. She doesn't dare to get too close to the campfire, so she sits a little further away.

Dahuang pointed at me with a smile and said, "It's so strange that this kid actually chased Rujun! I won't believe that such a good thing would happen to him."

I smiled and scratched my head, waiting for Bai Lanshan to become hysterical.

Unexpectedly, Bai Lanshan was not too excited. Instead, she nodded and said, "Actually, I have felt that you and Rujun have some feelings for a long time... I didn't expect that we would really get together so soon."

Rujun and I were both surprised. Rujun also tilted his head and asked, "Oh? Really?"

Bai Lanshan nodded and said, "Really, maybe it's a woman's intuition. I always feel that although you two look very different, you are... a perfect match."

I didn't expect that Bai Lanshan would actually speak for me. I wanted to bow to her and say thank you, and quickly said: "Thank you, thank you! Finally, a fair person said something fair."

Ruoshui said from the side: "Lin Yang, you can't bully Rujun, otherwise I won't be able to spare you..."

I nodded to Ruoshui with a smile and said, "Don't worry, I wish I could worship Rujun like a goddess all day long..."

Rujun smiled and said, "Forget it, is it okay to support me all day long?"

Just as he was talking, Gao Ming had already walked out of the cemetery. When this guy saw us all arriving, he said: "This ancestral tomb really needs a lot of work. The feng shui of the underworld mainly depends on the context of the underworld. I think this cemetery

At the beginning, the layout was not very particular, so there were a lot of places that needed to be moved, and even graves needed to be relocated... so it might be a big project, and it might not be possible to get it down within a week or two. Plus, the well in the ancestral house

...Oh, it’s time-consuming and expensive!”

Gao Ming's words, time consuming is just an excuse, what he mainly wants to say is actually a waste of money.

We all understand Bai Lanshan's current situation to some extent. We know that she is very poor, at least not rich. However, Bai Lanshan still did not lose face. She stood up and said: "Don't worry, in terms of remuneration, although I can't surprise you."

, but it will definitely satisfy you.”

After hearing this, Gao Ming nodded and said with a smile: "What do you think you are talking about? In fact, we just want to make this trip for free, how can we covet your reward? Isn't it?"

Bai Lanshan smiled and didn't say much, but in Bai Lanshan's eyes, she could see the little Jiujiu in Gao Ming's heart.

At this time, Gao Ming probably wanted to tell Bai Lanshan what happened in the ancient well of Yangzhai, so he winked at Bai Lanshan and then walked away.

The two chatted for almost ten minutes before they came back. When they came back, Bai Lanshan's face was solemn and she seemed a little hesitant.

Gao Ming looked indifferent and said: "Well, is there any county town near our place? I may need to stay here for a few days, and then find a construction team to come over and rebuild the ancestral tombs."

Bai Lanshan said: "Then I'll stay here with you for a few days... just in time..."

Having said this, Rujun's cell phone rang suddenly.

Rujun answered quickly, and as he listened, Rujun's expression changed.

"Rujun, what's wrong?" I asked quickly after she hung up the phone.

Rujun looked ugly and whispered: "Haoran... was assassinated."

"What?!" Everyone present shouted in unison. Except for Gao Ming who didn't know much about who this Haoran was, the rest of us were dumbfounded.

"Haoran was assassinated. What is Haoran's situation now? Has something happened already...or is it?" I asked quickly.

Rujun waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, Haoran was only seriously injured. Thanks to Wang Zixu and Wang Zihao who tried their best to protect them, Haoran and Wang Zihao were both injured. The situation cannot be seen now and they are still being rescued."

In the nervousness, even Rujun, who was used to seeing strong winds and waves, was a little incoherent. Ruoshui quickly said: "I'll drive, let's hurry back!"

I nodded and asked, "Is the assassin still the weird man in the apricot robe?"

Rujun nodded and said: "It's him. Many people have seen it. Unexpectedly, we didn't lure him to the bait this time, but let him put on a good show of attacking from east to west... I thought he would come here.

, I didn’t expect that he would directly invade our stronghold..."

I also nodded and said, "This guy is really thoughtful and he is indeed a formidable opponent."

After saying that, I looked at Bai Lanshan and asked, "Lanshan, we have to rush back tonight. Can you and Gao Ming stay here?"

Bai Lanshan nodded and said, "Don't worry, my injuries have basically healed now. Even if I meet that assassin again, I may not be stabbed by him."

I nodded, feeling very relieved about Bai Lanshan.

However, when Gao Ming heard that he and a female ghost were going to be left in the wilderness, he was immediately dumbfounded and asked with a tearful voice: "Boss Lin, I have something urgent to do when I return to the city tonight, can you take me with you?"

Walk?"

I glanced at him, shook my head and said, "You are also the apprentice of the dignified Mr. Mengdie, please show some backbone."
