Chapter Eighty-Five: Escaping with Ones Life

  It's a difficult problem to get back up, and this time it was Sun Baozi who led the way and accidentally arrived at this Longzhuang. If he is allowed to lead the way again, it is not certain where everyone will be taken, who knows if there are any Qilinzhai, Zhuquezhai and Xuanwuzhai nearby.

  The compasses that the two-room and five-room investigators carried with them originally had a directional function, but the magnetic field of the yin-yang pulse was disordered, and it was impossible to find the direction of east, south, west, and north from this. The needle on the compass kept spinning. Moreover, all around were thick fog, who knew what kind of monster or ghost was hiding inside, taking advantage of everyone's inattention to come out suddenly.

  When they came, they relied on Yang Xiao in the team. Now that Yang Xiao himself was in danger, everyone could only rely on themselves. The crowd faced outwards and formed a circle, each holding their guns, with the muzzles pointing into the darkness ahead. Among these people, Sun Baozi was the most leisurely. Just as everyone was about to set off forward, Sun Baozi strolled over to Xiong Wanyi's side, took down the piece of He Mountain jade hanging from Yang Xiao's neck and wore it around his own neck with a big smile. Yang Xiao closed his eyes without any movement, allowing Sun Baozi to take his jade stone without any obstruction.

  After putting on the jade stone, Sun Wukong turned around in a circle in the fog and then walked alone towards the left side where the fog was thickest. Everyone didn't understand what Sun Wukong meant, Ximen Qing asked: "Great Sage, where are you going? That way can't be walked, that way is the thickest fog, there must be something!"

  Sun Baozi seemed to have not heard anything, and when Ximen Lian finished speaking, his figure was about to disappear into the darkness. It wasn't until then that Sun Baozi stopped in his tracks, turned around, and said to the crowd: "I'm not saying it's my fault, but if you trust me once, just keep following me. After all, we've already been to Longzhuang once, what are we afraid of? Do you really think the relationship between the four great divine beasts is that good, even in death they have to be neighbors?"

  As he spoke, Sun Baozi beckoned with his hand in the thick fog and continued: "Follow me, I've only gotten lost once in my life, just like that time."

  After Sun Baozi finished speaking, everyone looked at each other in dismay. Just as they were hesitating, Yang Xiao suddenly opened his eyes on Xiong Wanyi's shoulder, pointed to the direction where Sun Baozi was standing, and weakly whispered into Xiong Wanyi's ear: "Follow... him, it's right." After saying these few words, Yang Xiao fell onto Xiong Wanyi's shoulder again, closed his eyes once more, and sank back into unconsciousness.

  At this time, everyone's eyes fell on Yang Xiao's body. Carrying him, Xiong Wanyi looked up at the crowd and said: "Where are you going? You either give a word or change someone to carry him. It turns out that these two hundred kilograms are not yours to carry!"

  "Follow Sun Jue," Ximen Lian said, "it's all like this, what else can go wrong? At worst, we'll all go down together. We're all in this line of work, who doesn't know about reincarnation? At worst, we'll come back again after twenty years."

  These few sentences are not clear, and some people still think they were harsh words spoken before going to the execution ground. However, it seems that except for this road led by Sun Baozi, there is no other way to go in a place with nothing to walk on. The crowd followed Sun Baozi all the way forward, and strangely, they didn't even see a shadow of a ghost or demon along the way. Is Yang Juei still capable of protecting everyone's safety?

  After following Sun Baozi for about twenty minutes, the tightest Ximen chain suddenly said in front of the sky shed with a bright light the size of a grain of rice: "Look over there, is that where we came from?"

  His words reminded others, and everyone followed Ximen's gaze to look forward, only to see a faint light in the fog ahead. Ximen continued to shout: "Hurry up, I hope Liu Bu is also lost, and nothing will happen to Wang Gang above!"

  He had just finished speaking when he heard Sun Baozi slowly say in front of him, "Master, you're also looking for Liu Bu? What a coincidence! Not to mention me, take a look at the half lying on the ground in front, isn't that Old Liu?"

  At this time, everyone's attention was on the sky, and after hearing Sun Aozi's words, they all turned to where Sun Baozi pointed. Not far away from the ground in front of them, a person was faintly visible lying down. To be precise, it was indeed as Sun Baozi had said, more than half of this person's body had been eaten by the evil spirits. Perhaps because there was no flesh on his face, and his head hadn't moved, they could still tell that this person was Liu Bu, who had led them to Jiangjunfu.

  Now Liu Bu's limbs and most of his flesh have been eaten clean, looking extremely uncomfortable. Sun Wuji took a glance and shifted his gaze away, muttering to himself: "After all, it's a master-disciple relationship, if even a huge python can be taken away, can't you take out your own disciple?"

  When Sun Pangzi was talking nonsense, Lao Mo had already passed by, took a rough look at him and turned back to say: "Except for the bite marks, I couldn't see any other external injuries. However, it's possible that there are fatal wounds in other invisible places, this needs to wait until the autopsy..."

  His words were not yet finished, when Sun Baozi impatiently interrupted: "Old Mo, it's not me saying you, just don't disturb Old Liu. His own birth father doesn't care about him. Just let Old Liu lie quietly and don't take him outside." At this point, Sun Baozi paused for a moment, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and then continued to speak his mind: "You say you're taking Old Liu out, in the future when eating Sichuan hot pot, I'll think of him again. How can I be at ease picking brain flowers and hundred leaves?"

  The exit is now in sight, and after staying down here for a long time, even Old Mo didn't have the heart to care about Liu Bu's real cause of death anymore. For the time being, follow Sun Baozi to continue walking forward, and finally when they walked to the position directly under the light source, they saw that the ground was filled with gold bricks, and a rope stretched down from the hole above, which was exactly below their position.

  After they went up, they found that the underground shelter above was already packed with police, led by Director Xie of the local Public Security Bureau. Sun Baozi asked and only then did he know that Director Xie and his team had waited until dawn, but didn't see Sun Baozi and his group return, and couldn't contact these leaders who came down through various means. So they sent people to search for them. The police who came down were extremely tough mentally and actually passed Liu Bu's shocking formation. They walked all the way here.

  The police who came later didn't notice anything else, but the few hostages still unconscious and the gold bricks scattered around the entrance of the pit were immediately visible. Sun Baozi's men on top were about to intercept, but unfortunately, they were one step too late. The quick-witted policeman had already taken a step ahead and reported the situation here with his walkie-talkie: "Thank you, the hostages have been found, please come down quickly, there is gold everywhere on the ground!"

  In this way, Director Xie rushed over like a storm, bringing his subordinates to this place. The people left behind by Sun Baozi to keep watch were also useless and could only guard the entrance of the tunnel leading to the Yin-Yang Pulse, but they didn't let Director Xie's men go down either.

  After Sun Baozi came up, he didn't bother to talk to Director Xie and found a secluded place to report the situation in Longzhuang to his superior, Gao Lao Da. As soon as Gao heard it, he became anxious: "I said that when the second and fifth rooms wake up, they will directly return to the bureau. Who told you to bring them down to the Yin-Yang vein? Don't interfere with things there! Leave Ximen Chain there to watch, I'll arrange for troops to receive them. The local police matters I'll contact the Ministry of Public Security, you take your men and roll back here immediately. Let me go catch Liu Bu Zhen, what are you doing meddling in other people's business!"

  After being scolded by the police, Sun's small eyes were looking around at the police officers opposite him, just as he was about to find Director Xie to vent his anger. Just then, Director Xie's phone rang, and with a smile on his face, he said a few words into the phone before taking the lead in finding Sun. With a hearty laugh, he said: "Director Sun, if it weren't for you all, our Huayang Public Security Bureau wouldn't have gotten this collective second-class merit award. Just now, the leaders from the bureau called me to inform me that they're completely handing over the case to you. It seems like the armed police will be arriving soon to take over, and the leaders at the bureau have already arranged another task for me. Sorry about that, I'll just lead my team away first. Next time you come to Huayang, please notify me in advance, and I'll bring all of you to taste some local specialties..."

  Director Xie said as he backed away in the direction they came from. Sun Baozi was trying to find an excuse to stop him, but Director Xie had already turned around and quickly retreated with his entourage. Sun Baozi shouted behind them: "I haven't finished speaking! Isn't it true that you want to know what's going on here? Where did your Ai Guo go, don't you want to know? The corpse in the morgue is gone, don't you want to know? Which excavator technology is good, don't you want to know..."

  When Sun Pangzi said this, I was already laughing with tears in my eyes. I stole a glance at Huang Ran, who was still persuading Xiao He to drink, and this fatty seemed like nothing had happened, only smiling and glancing at me and Sun Pangzi for a moment. However, after exchanging a glance with Sun Pangzi, the two of them intentionally or unintentionally avoided eye contact.

  I'm still curious about someone in my heart, and I actively asked Huang Ran: "Old Huang, that Ai Guo is a pity. At the beginning, they were each on their own, if not for staying in Longzhuang, now bringing her over, it's also considered finding a female hero."

  Huang Ran smiled and looked at me, saying: "You said Aiguo - if you want to see her, I'll try to get her out, but the possibility is not great. After the committee was dissolved, she got married and now she's seven months pregnant. Her husband may not let her go."

  I heard that Aiguo is fine, and she's even getting married and about to have a child. As soon as I heard this, I was stunned. Looking at Sun Baozi and Huang Ran, I said: "You're saying that Aiguo is perfectly fine, and she climbed out of the Dragon Tomb by herself?"

  Huang Ran listened and didn't respond, just smiled at me with a "heh heh"…
