A Different World
"And then … You found out about this secret?" Lin Yi was very impressed as well. It seemed like bringing Xiaoke back to the tomb was a wise choice. If he came alone, he wouldn't have studied the coffin, and he wouldn't have been able to discover the secret of this staircase!
Especially the Strange Tales Chronicle- Lin Yi and Boss Bai were about to leave, but Xiaoke found out that something was amiss. It seemed that Xiaoke was indeed a professional. No wonder Old Hei would pay such a high price to hire a trap master like her to go with him.
"Yeah, I thought we could open some secret passageway, but I found a staircase. There's a whole different world down there, with a lot of things for women!" Xiaoke said.
"Oh? Let's go down and take a look then? " Lin Yi was very curious about the space down there, but he was worried that Boss Bai wouldn't want to explore it.
"Alright, let's go take a look then." Boss Bai was curious as well- he was suspicious about this solid coffin- what if it was as Lin Yi guessed, that Zhang Liju wasn't dead? Could it be down there?
If he could see Zhang Liju with his own eyes, Boss Bai would be very excited.
"Then we'll all stand on top of the coffin- I'll activate the mechanism.
And so, Lin Yi, Boss Bai, and Xiaoke, as well as Skybolt pig, stood on top of the coffin- Xiaoke then pressed on the wall, and the coffin started to descend quickly, but the speed was very stable, and there was no impact at all. It was so quiet that people couldn't even feel that the coffin was moving.
Lin Yi couldn't help but be amazed by this situation- the design of this tomb was truly amazing.
Lin Yi took a closer look, and when Xiaoke pressed the mechanism, there weren't any bumps or bumps. It didn't look like anything was wrong. He didn't know how Xiaoke found out about it.
The coffin stopped very quickly, and Lin Yi and the others got off. They were now in an empty stone room, but one look was enough to tell that this stone room was different from the previous one. There were no carvings of Zhang Liju on the walls.
Lin Yi frowned as he watched the Skybolt Pig jump down from the coffin. This fella doesn't seem to be surprised at all. Could it be …
"Skybolt Pig, did you already know that there was an underground space here?" Lin Yi lowered his head and asked Skybolt Pig.
"Ji ji …" The Skybolt Pig was a little helpless, but he still nodded to show that he understood.
"Then why didn't you say so earlier?" Lin Yi glared at Skybolt Pig angrily. Wasn't this asking him to do it twice? If he had known, he would've gone to the tomb the first time he came. Why wait until now?
"Ji ji …" Skybolt Pig used his two front paws to gesture something as if he was defending himself.
"Write it on the ground with your paws!" Lin Yi didn't understand what it was trying to say. It was too complicated, and Lin Yi couldn't guess what it was trying to say.
"Master said to let nature take its course." That was what Skybolt Pig wrote on the ground.
"Let nature take its course …" Lin Yi sighed and understood what Zhang Liju meant. It seemed like Zhang Liju wanted to let fate take its course. Being able to open the tomb and accept his legacy was a form of fate. Everything else was better to let nature take its course. There was no need to force anything.
Skybolt Pig followed his master's wishes and didn't tell Lin Yi that there was another level below the tomb. It was reasonable, and Lin Yi had no reason to blame him.
"Forget it, let's go for a walk. Xiaoke, there's no danger here, right?" Lin Yi looked at Xiaoke and asked.
"No." Xiaoke shook her head. Xiaoke shook her head. "But I didn't go far. I just walked around for a bit before going back."
"Huh? That coffin disappeared again … Is it okay? "White Boss suddenly pointed at the corner of the wall where the coffin used to be.
"The coffin went back up by itself. It's fine." Xiaoke shook her head. "There's a mechanism here. The coffin can come down and pick us up anytime."
"Oh …" White Boss nodded. It made sense. Otherwise, how would Xiaoke go back up?
The three left the stone room together. Lin Yi insisted on walking in front. His jade had an alarm function, and he would be able to react immediately if there was any danger.
"Piglet, you stay with me. If there's danger, you can take care of it in advance. You don't want me to die, do you?" Lin Yi kicked Skybolt Pig. "I'm telling you, I'm an Earth class mid phase peak now. It's only a matter of time before I reach Sky class. When that time comes, I'll be able to raise you to Earth class late phase peak. If you don't want that strength, then pretend I didn't say anything!"
"Oink oink …" Skybolt Pig heard Lin Yi's words and started drooling. He nodded, saying that he'll take care of it.
Lin Yi was satisfied with Skybolt Pig's attitude, and so the man and pig went to the front to explore the way. Xiaoke and White Boss followed behind, and the three of them left the stone room together.
After exiting the stone room, a huge hall came into view. It was very spacious. Although it was called a hall, it was more like a training field. There was a place to rest at the side of the hall. Around the hall, other than the stone room that they came out from, there were three other rooms.
"This … Is this all?" Lin Yi looked at the spacious hall and said in shock. The situation here was out of Lin Yi's expectations- it was completely different from the first floor. This was more like an enlarged version of a house with four rooms and a living room!
"Yes, this is all," Xiaoke nodded. "I went to the nearest room, and I think it's a woman's room.
"Oh? A woman's room? "Lin Yi was shocked." No way? Zhang Liju was quite a playboy? Living with a beauty in an ancient tomb? "
"Ahem …" White Boss blushed as well- he felt that it wasn't a good idea to talk bad about his grandmaster behind his back.
"Skybolt Pig, what's going on?" Lin Yi turned to Skybolt Pig. "Who's this woman?"
Zhang Liju said to let nature take its course, but Lin Yi had already noticed the problem, and Skybolt Pig, in order to level up, couldn't care less. He started to tell the story of this place.
