Chapter 206 A Strange Square

Actually, Madam Lin used some tricks to fool the two sisters. The two little sisters were unaware and foolishly thought Lin Wan was right.

In fact, the Li Family and the Lin Family were the same family. The two could not be separated so clearly in the future. The fact they agreed to stand for the Li Family was equivalent to supporting the Lin Family.

“Well, you can think about it. Now I’m going to make some arrangements because we can’t let your Master suddenly show up. It’s too scary.”

Then, they all laughed in low tones.

“What makes you guys so happy?” Little Brother Li came over and asked.

“This is a secret between us women. We won’t tell you.” Lin Wan said.

She said again, “Lin Kun, come here.”

Lin Kun ran over. Lin Wan whispered to him. Then Lin Kun nodded to show he understood clearly and he could make sure that everything was fine.

“What the hell was going on?” Li Mu thought suspiciously. Lin Wan said to him, “Don’t think about it. This matter has nothing to do with you. Let’s go and find the square.”

After saying that, Lin Wan held his arm and dragged him away.

Lin Kun bundled the three packs of explosives together and said to the two sisters, “From now on, I’ll do what you tell me to do.”

The two sisters nodded, keeping a wary eye on their surroundings.

Lin Kun nodded his head and said to them, “Let’s walk in front so we won’t hurt others.”

So the three of them quickened their pace, leaving the others some distance behind. And while walking, they looked around.

“What are they doing?” He Xiaoyu said to Mrs. Hong.

Mrs. Hong smiled and replied in a low voice, “Don’t ask. Let’s just wait and watch the show.”

They kept walking. Then, Shen Zixing suddenly pointed to a huge stone in front of her and nodded repeatedly toward Lin Kun.

“Get out of the way.” Lin Kun shouted. He lit the explosives and threw them directly over. Other people were startled and rushed to find a place to hide.

Boom! The debris flew. Li Mu cursed, “Lin Kun, you are a fool. You didn’t even tell us in advance. If you hurt my son, I will kill you.”

Third Grandaunt was so angry that her whole body was shivering.

No one dared to speak. Without asking, she must be blown back again.

The Lin Family all felt funny. They thought Li Mu was a strange man because he didn’t do things according to the rules. It’s unlucky for the Shen Family to meet him.

However, the Shen Family was not happy. Fourth Uncle and Fifth Aunty were very anxious. The last piece of soul mirror was destroyed. They couldn’t patrol the gold mine in the future.

It seemed that the gold could only be shipped away as soon as possible. Otherwise, the gold would be stolen sooner or later.

But the point was how did their Third Sister get blown up again? What exactly did she do and why did those two sisters recognize her?

Third Grandaunt said in tears, “Yueni, don’t blame me.”

Crew Cut Taoist said in a hurry, “She won’t. She won’t blame you. Darling, what’s the reason for this time?”

“I don’t know. I didn’t even have time to speak before I was blown away. They....”

Others understood. Fifth Aunty said, “They must have been scared so they use explosives whenever they heard any voice. I think it’s just a waste of time.”

Third Grandaunt said angrily, “These are all in vain. I will teach those b*st*rds a hard lesson.”

“Mom, what should we do now?” Shen Xingyue asked.

“I don’t know. Now it’s only up to them. The good thing is that they have not deviated from the route. But as for the square...”

Now, Shen Xingyue could do nothing. There were only three soul mirrors. The Shen Family used them to patrol the gold mine for more than 200 years without damage. But they were destroyed by Little Brother Li. If the Shen Family ancestors knew, they would certainly be very angry.

Li Mu and the others didn’t know the actual situation and continued to walk forward cautiously. After a long time, they came out of the valley and saw a giant square appear in front of them.

The square was rectangular, with several stone statues standing on each side. Each stone statue was very tall, with different facial expressions carved on them. They all looked beautiful.

In front of the square was another stone statue. It looked a few times larger than the other stone statues but dressed the same as others.

The only strange thing was that this stone statue was bald without a face. And other stone statues were standing, while this one was sitting, with hands on the knees and chest up. as if it was looking in the distance.

Li Mu commanded, “Don’t touch anything. Hurry up and find the hole.”

Everyone circled around the square a few times and didn’t find it. Then Li Mu told them to spread out and find again. But they found nothing.

It was too weird. Did it mean that their previous judgment was wrong?

Mrs. Hong suggested that if they couldn’t find the hole, they should find a way to break the mechanic system. If they could break the mechanic system, they could also leave the place safely.

The others didn’t have any good ideas so they just had to accept Mrs. Hong’s idea and observe the stone statues carefully.

There were six stone statues, with three of them on each side. They carefully observed each statue, and finally came to the faceless one. Li Mu looked for a while and whispered, “Who is this one?”

No one could answer him. They all wondered why a faceless bald stone statue was put here. What did it represent?

Lin Wan suddenly said, “Honey, look behind the stone statue. There is a stone door.”

Li Mu hurried to see. Only at this moment did he find that there was a small corridor at the back of this stone statue. And there was a stone door at the end of the corridor.

They walked over together to see. They found two doors closed tightly that they couldn’t see what was inside. Li Mu muttered, “This stone door is the entrance to the gold mine. Right?”

Mrs. Hong answered, “You are right. This should be the entrance to the gold mine. If we can successfully crack the mechanic system, the stone door will open. And we will reach the Shen Family’s gold hiding place if we go inside.”

Without saying anything, Li Mu began to dig the hole with a shovel.

Lin Wan asked in confusion, “What are you doing?”

“I returned to my old trade of drilling holes. Regardless of what’s inside, let’s blow it up.”

Lin Wan chuckled. She told everyone to stay far away and watch what Li Mu was doing.

Mrs. Hong said with emotion, “Li Mu is really funny. He always has many fantastic ideas. Whoever is his rival will be unlucky.”

Lin Wan laughed, “He likes to do things according to his own way. He hates to be led by others. It’s really hard to lead him into a trap.”

After a while, Little Brother Li came back gloomily. Lin Wan hurriedly asked, “Explosive expert, how is the situation?”

“I can’t. The material of that stone door is very special. It’s harder than steel. I have dug for so long but it is unharmed. I’m sure we can’t blow it up with explosives.”

They had no idea. All of them had to go back to observe the stone statue more carefully and finally they found a detail.

Lin Wan said, “Honey, what do you think about these six stone statues represent?”

Li Mu shook his head and asked, “What do you think of it?”

“I think that they represent six emotions, which are joy, anger, sadness, thought, grief and fear. Look carefully at their expressions. Do you think so?”

The others rushed to see the statues and found that these six stone statues really had six expressions.

He Xiaoyu asked with a confused look, “As the saying goes, people have seven emotions and six desires. There are only six emotions here, lacking an expression of shock. What’s going on?”

Lin Wan pointed to the faceless bald stone statue and sneered, “That one represents shock.”

Li Mu smiled and said, “You mean because it looks so surprising that it has no face to meet people?”

The others and Lin Wan all laughed. Then Lin Wan said to him, “Do you still remember what Mrs. Hong said before?”

“Mrs. Hong said too many things. Who knows which one you ask?” Li Mu thought.

Lin Wan didn’t play dumb with him and directly explained, “Mrs. Hong said that this was the Among all employees, alley. These seven stone statues are the seven realms. These expressions represent the heart realm. The Valley should refer to the heart realm.”

Li Mu went to observe the stone statues again. And after a while, he asked in doubt, “Is it true that we can break through this step if we crack these seven heart realms?”

“Yes. It’s the only way.”

“Then how should we do it?”

Lin Wan shook her head and said, “I’m not sure about this question. It should be related to the stone statue. But I don’t know how exactly it should be done.”

“Then we can choose the old way.” Li Mu said with a bad smile.

The old way? All of them watched Li Mu with confusion.

Little Brother Li patted the backpack on Lin Kun’s shoulder and said, “Let’s continue with Xiaoyu’s idea of using explosives to blow up whatever the situation is.”

He Xiaoyu shyly spat at Li Mu.

Lin Kun couldn’t agree more because he was already addicted to bombing. After hearing Li Mu’s plan, he immediately approved and asked excitedly, “Brother, which one should be bombed first?”

“How many packs of explosives are left?” Li Mu asked.

“We’ve already used five and there are seven left. That’s enough.” Lin Kun replied with a smile.

“OK. Blow them up one by one. After they’re all blown up, maybe we can get out.” Li Mu said.

“No problem.”

Lin Kun rolled up his sleeves and was ready to do it. But Mrs. Hong stopped him.

“Wait.”

Lin Kun looked at her suspiciously. He didn’t understand why she was trying to stop him.

Mrs. Hong brought the backpack over and handed it to the two sisters, saying, “It’s not suitable for us to do this. It’s better for you to do it.”
