“Grandpa, take me to the Three Stones Mountain.”
Without saying anything, the big guy picked up Shen Xingyue with one hand and strode towards the village.
“Ah!” Third Grandaunt tried to stop them, “Many things were not clear. Why did they leave?” thought Third Grandaunt.
Crew Cut Taoist pulled at her sleeve and said to her, “We should save the boy first. Elder brother’s matter is not urgent. We can ask about it after coming back.”
Third Grandmother shook her head with a wry smile and told Fifth Aunty, “Sister, call everyone over and let’s go to the Three Stones Mountain to have a look.”
“Sister, should I call the Lin Family?”
Third Grandaunt hesitated for a moment, then nodded, and said, “Yes. They will finally know it. Instead of hiding it from them and letting them misunderstand, let’s show them what we have to prevent them from trying to dig our gold mines in the future.”
“OK, got it.”
Fifth Aunty walked out of the village. After a while, both families gathered in the village. Third Grandaunt explained the situation briefly to the Lin Family. And the words they said were of course ambiguous.
The Lin Family knew that this was the top secret of the Shen Family and it was very generous of them to give an explanation. It was impossible to ask for more because it would be easy to offend their friends. So the Lin Family didn’t ask further questions.
After discussing, the two-side leaders decided to leave a small number of people stationed in the village. And the rest went to the Three Stones Mountain to save people.
The large team immediately dispatched and rushed to the Three Stones Mountain.
The corpse puppets and herds did not disperse but followed them not far away in a large group, like a guard, to the Three Stones Mountain.
These people had studied kung fu. And their marching speed was naturally not slow. It didn’t take long for them to come to the Three Stones Mountain.
“Brother Mu.”
“Brother Mu.”
...
“Son-in-law.”
“Son-in-law.”
...
Far away, everyone heard the call of Shen Xingyue and the big guy and the deafening sound.
When they approached, they found that the big guy was patting the stone with his hands and the sound was coming from that.
“Yueni.” Third Grandaunt shouted.
Shen Xingyue ran over and said anxiously, “Mother, the entrance to the gold mine is there. You should move the stone quickly. I’m going to save Brother Mu!”
Third Grandaunt gave her a rolling eye and scolded her in a low voice, “Naughty girl. Stop talking nonsense. Those three stones are connected with the mountains and I’m not the yellow turban Lux. How can I move them?”
“Then how did they get in?”
“There is a hidden passage above the Datian Stone, which is the only way to the gold mine. But there is a protection formation in the middle. And they should be trapped there.”
When Third Grandaunt said these words, she deliberately raised her voice, which was intended for the Lin Family.
The Lin brothers looked at each other and Third Grandaunt asked, “Sister, are there any secrets of that formation?”
“Yes, it’s a protection formation of our Shen Family. You may have heard of it. It has a very nice name, called the Dream Valley!”
The Lin Family breathed in a gasp and they all had an ugly look. They had heard of it and it was very famous. This Dream Valley, known as one of the seven evil arrays in South Seas, had already been depicted as a land of death. And this rumor was passed down from generation to generation.
Third Grandfather was very anxious, “Li Mu and Miss Lin were disobedient. How did they go there? Mrs. Hong is even more outrageous. How can she just allow them to take risks? Why not ask them to leave in time?” thought Third Grandfather.
They didn’t know Lin Wan and Li Mu were helpless and the back road was blocked. So, they could only go forward. Otherwise, they would probably be trapped and die in the cave.
Although they could stick to waiting for help, they don’t know whether the rescue would come or when they would come. After all, no one could pin their hopes on the unknown factors. When they had the ability to save themselves, the first thing that came to mind must be self-help.
“Mom, come on! Follow me.”
Shen Xingyue began to urge again. Third Grandaunt had no temper in front of her daughter. After a simple arrangement, the two leaders displayed their unique skills and climbed the Datian Stone one after another.
Only two people were dragged up. One was Shen Xingyue and the other was the big guy.
Shen Xingyue was still an ordinary person now. Consequently, she couldn’t climb a tree. The big guy was a corpse puppet. Although he was extremely powerful and could move quickly, he also had a defect, that is, his climbing ability was not that good.
Not only did the big guy have this defect, but all the corpse puppets had this defect. As for the skill of climbing, the corpse puppets were similar to ordinary people. And they must rely on tools to climb upwards. It was extremely difficult to climb a bare rock like that.
The area on the top of the stone was limited. Third Grandaunt was afraid that her daughter would fall down so she held her hand tightly, greeted others to come to the vicinity of the stone crevice together.
These people squatted down and looked at it. Fourth Uncle frowned and said, “Why is the entrance sealed?”
Everyone looked at the big guy and saw him patting his chest proudly.
“Liar. Stone. Smash!”
Shen Xingyue was so angry that she lifted her leg and kicked him. She felt very painful, as if she had kicked a steel plate.
Shen Xingyue was anxious and painful, and couldn’t help cursing, “Psycho! Why did you hit him?”
“Yueni, don’t be rude to First Uncle. Uncle has limited sanity and misunderstood them inadvertently. Don’t worry. There is a cave below and a deep pool. The area is quite large, enough for them to dodge and move and there will be no danger.”
Third Grandaunt realized that her daughter had started to get angry and she didn’t dare to talk much. She could only encourage and comfort her.
Although the big guy didn’t understand why she was angry, he knew that he had made a mistake and pointed to the crevice of the stone and said, “Son-in-law. Save!”
Fourth Uncle hurriedly said, “Brother, you are too big to go down. So, can you hang up a few corpse puppets and let them go down and clean up the stones and wooden blocks?”
They acted according to his words. After they hung up a few corpse puppets, they ordered them to go down to the crevices of the stone to clear the obstacles.
In the face of this kind of passage blocked from above, it was dangerous and difficult to clean obstacles from below, but much easier to clean them from above. The puppies were strong and did not feel tired. It didn’t take long for them to reopen the passage.
They went down the cave and found traces of some activities in the cave. But they did not find traces of Lin Wan and others. The Lin Family became more serious and the Shen Family became very serious too.
They also began to worry. After all, Miss Lin was there. If she died in the Dream Valley, even if this matter had nothing to do with the Shen Family, the Shen Family would have to take the blame.
What was more, Lin Wan and others were forced into the guard by the big guy. And the big guy was a member of the Shen Family. Therefore, strictly speaking, the Shen Family was the culprit behind the scene. If the Lin Family wanted to revenge, they had their reasons.
The Shen Family intended to go out of the mountains. At this moment, it was the stage that needed the help of noble people. Of course, the first preferred goal was their former ally. If the ally became an enemy because of this incident, the loss would be too much. The Shen Family might never reclaim their status again.
Everyone didn’t talk much and took various measures. They came to the underground cave through the waterway. In front of the stone tablet, everyone stopped and stared at the tunnel with a dignified expression.
“Mom, save them! Be quick!” Shen Xingyue implored.
Third Grandaunt frowned and said, “It’s no use. We can’t find them and can’t enter their dreams at all. If we are not prepared, it will only complicate their situation and make it more dangerous! “
“What shall we do?” Shen Xingyue anxiously asked.
“Just wait. If they are strong enough, they will find our gold mines after going through three checkpoints. The exit there is the entrance here. As long as they can get through, they will still appear here.”
Shen Xingyue was almost crying, standing at the entrance of the tunnel and looking inside.
Fifth Aunty comforted her and said, “Yueni, don’t worry. With Zixing sisters accompanying them, they can break the formation. So it is very likely that they will come back safely. Just be patient and wait for a while.”
These words were not only for Shen Xingyue, but also for the Lin Family. Sure enough, after hearing that, everyone felt a little better. They found a place to rest and waited patiently for Lin Wan and others to show up.
...
Li Mu said everything he could. But the two sisters insisted that they wouldn’t leave.
“Anyway, where Brother Mu goes, where we go. We serve you. We follow you. You have us. We will never be deserters.”
Lin Wan finally advised Li Mu, “Forget it. Since they are willing to follow, let them continue to follow us. They will be helpful for us!”
Li Mu replied solemnly, “How can they help us? Even if they can help us, we can’t let them take risks. If anything happens to them, how can I tell it to the Shen Family and see them?”
“Since you ran out, why do you want to see them? Who do you want to see? Do you have feelings for her?” Madam Lin said jealously.
“You are talking nonsense again. You are jealous even in a dream. Do I want to see her? That’s not what I mean. If I meet the Shen Family in the future, they will ask where these two sisters are. If something happens to them, they will be very angry. What can I do?”
“Sounds reasonable.” Lin Wan felt better and said to these two sisters, “Zixing, Ming’er, listen to your elder brother. Go back. As long as you go back, you will be out of our dream. And then you can find an exit to leave here. What your elder brother has done is all for your own good. Don’t disappoint your elder brother.”
“We’re not leaving!” Shen Zixing said stubbornly, “Sister, if I leave with Ming’er, you may never get out of the protection formation. We are your amulet. With us accompanying you, the formation can’t operate at full rate and you can crack it easily.”
“I know what you are talking about, but...”
“There is no ‘but’. Brother Mu is our man. It is his duty to protect us. It is also our duty to protect him. Isn’t that what you did?”
