Yan Kuan’s face couldn’t be any darker. Did this soldier have any discerning eyes? Couldn’t he tell that he and his wife were a couple?
Although the mask on his face made them look ordinary, could it be that this brat didn’t feel his aura?
Actually, how could Colonel Lin Qiang not feel it? He had thought that it was the d*mnable mass grave. Who would have thought that it was from the man next to him?
Besides, those of them who stayed in the army, especially those who often stayed in the mountains, rarely saw women.
This assistant looked about his age, and she was also an archaeologist. She was a scholar, and it was enough for him to be a colonel. Moreover, such a woman was very simple. Other than her family, she would only work. Marry her and support her family. Many of their brothers in the army were looking for teachers like this. Therefore, wasn’t a scholar and a soldier always a perfect match?
Therefore, at this time, in such a place, Lin Qiang naturally had to seize the time to court her.
As for whether this Assistant Fang was married or not, did it need to be said? She definitely wasn’t. She wasn’t wearing a wedding ring.
Alright, although she wasn’t wearing a wedding ring, she was wearing the Obsidian Star. Moreover, it was on her other hand. However, who asked her to wear gloves? So, the misunderstanding was created like this.
“Assistant Fang, you must be tired. We’ll be there soon.”
Shen Xiaoxiao nodded and didn’t say anything. The temperature here was too different, and she could faintly smell a fishy smell.
“Colonel, you’d better mind your own business. The deeper you go in, the more it tests one’s physical strength. Don’t try to be brave.”
Yan Kuan’s words were already very polite. If he hadn’t promised Xiaoxiao, he would have thrown this soldier out.
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at Yan Kuan helplessly. Was it necessary? He did not do anything.
Lin Qiang did not care about Yan Kuan’s attitude. In his eyes, the reason why Assistant Fang was not polite was probably because he wanted to compete with him.
However, don’t blame Lin Qiang for misunderstanding. It was because Yan Kuan’s hands were carrying a lot of things. Otherwise, he would have pulled Xiaoxiao into his arms or held her by the hand.
“Assistant Zhou’s stamina is pretty good. He can hold on until now with so many things.”
“Everyone, be careful. We’re here.”
Everyone held their breath when they heard this. Fortunately, they were all wearing protective clothing, so anything that was within the yin energy was blocked outside. However, the bone-piercing coldness still made them feel uncomfortable.
More than ten of them, along with a few soldiers, were standing in a huge hole and craning their heads to look inside.
“This hole is at least twice as big as yesterday. Yesterday, it was only two meters in diameter. Today, it’s at least five meters wide. This is too scary.”
“Yeah, as time goes on, the hole will get bigger and eventually cover the entire mountain. Even the ancient tomb next to it will be swallowed.”
“Ah? That won’t do. That’s a national protection project. We definitely can’t let the ancient tomb be destroyed.”
The colonel looked very anxious, but Jiang He’s words were definitely not a joke. Since he could say that, it meant that this mass grave was definitely filled with murderous intent.
“Master Jiang He, how do we do this? Do we still need an eminent monk to perform a ritual?”
“An eminent monk’s ritual is necessary. Right now, the most important thing is to seal this mass grave.”
“How can this mass grave be sealed?”
Jiang He had no other choice at the moment. He said that he wanted to seal it, but it was not that easy to seal this mass grave.
“Crown Prince? This mass grave?”
Little Treasure did not expect to see this mass grave before he realized that it had completely refreshed all his knowledge.
How could this be called a mass grave? It was more like a ghost cave. The pillar that was more than a meter in diameter was not an ordinary piece of wood, but a thousand-year-old willow tree. This willow tree had always lost yin. Moreover, even if it had grown for a thousand years, it would not have been too big. At the very least, it would not have been more than a meter in width. But now, this wooden pillar seemed to be at least a meter wide. That was because the willow tree was covered in layers of blood scabs.
It was covered in layers of blood that had been eroded by more than a thousand layers.
It seemed that the Japanese had left behind such a backup plan when they left back then. Perhaps they had long known that they would definitely lose. They were not at ease even after they had left. It was truly disgusting.
“If it’s sealed, there will be a time when it will be opened again. Moreover, who knows if there will be anyone who can seal this place again at that time. Therefore, the best way is to directly solve this place.”
“Solve it? Crown Prince, how can this be solved? Do you have a way?”
Jiang He did not expect that this Crown Prince would actually have a way to solve this place. This was simply too inconceivable. Just how powerful was his ability?
“This place must be dealt with as soon as possible. It can’t be more than seven days. Otherwise, within a radius of a hundred miles, no matter if it’s people or livestock, they will all die.”
Everyone felt a little terrified. They did not expect him to be so powerful. However, how was he going to deal with this? Moreover, did this young man really have the ability to do so?
“This kid, he is quite good at acting.”
Yan Kuan could not help but mumble beside Shen Xiaoxiao.
Shen Xiaoxiao glared at him. What did he mean by that? Her Little Treasure was already very good, alright? Was there a father like this? He actually did not believe in his own son.
“My son is already good. If I let you go, can you do it?”
“It’s a piece of cake.”
“I’m talking about using feng shui.”
Alright, Yan Kuan stopped talking. Why did Xiaoxiao always speak up for that brat? She had always been like this since he was young.
Yan Kuan was unhappy. Of course, he wasn’t targeting Shen Xiaoxiao, but his own son.
But then again, at this moment, the aura of a b*stard around Little Treasure really had his bearing.
On this end, Little Treasure looked down and decided to go down personally. He turned to Da Bao and said, “Da Bao, wait for me here with them. I’ll bring Xiao Xue down to take a look.”
“I want to go.”
Da Bao wanted to follow. Little Treasure glanced at her and suddenly remembered that Da Bao had a magic crystal in her body as well, so she should be fine. Forget it, it was better to bring it with her. He wouldn’t be at ease with her staying up there with Ye Xie.
“Alright, we’ll go in together. The rest of you wait up here.”
“Wait, I’ll go too.”
“Yes, I’ll go too.”
Ye Xie and Jiang He spoke at the same time. However, Little Treasure would not bring them along. He said directly, “You’re going to add new blood to this mass grave? This place will only become more and more powerful. Do you still want to go?”
Jiang He did not speak. Even Ye Xie did not speak at that moment. Who asked for his magic crystal to be taken away? But now, it seemed that Da Bao and Young Master Yan were definitely not ordinary people. Otherwise, how could they not be afraid of this mass grave?
Da Bao and Little Treasure exchanged a glance. Without a word, they jumped into the cave with Xiao Xue.
