Chapter 42: Incitement

I knew that Ling Ruyue was up to no good, but I didn’t dare to move or speak. A drop of cold sweat on my forehead ran directly across my face and ‘pata’ landed on the ground.

“Okay, Feifei, come back.” Ling Ruyue yawned, looking very bored. She reached out, and the spider actually flew back.

I was relieved, and Su Rou kindly helped me up. I wiped the cold sweat off my face, but I didn’t dare to speak or complain. The little spider was still crawling around Ling Ruyue, and I was afraid.

Su Rou probably realized how strange this little girl was, and he said with some caution, “Hua Feifei is amazing, she can fly without wings.”

That son of a bitch, traitor, started to flatter Ling Ruyue as soon as he saw the spider.

I cursed Su Rou and Ling Ruyue to death in my heart, but I still kept a stiff smile on my face. I told myself a hundred times that I was not giving in to Ling Ruyue, but admiring Hua Feifei.

“Fat brother, you’re so silly. Can’t you see? It’s not really flying, it’s because of the spider silk.” Ling Ruyue flipped her hand, and the flower fly disappeared. Next, I saw her putting a lid on a bamboo tube, and after putting the lid on, she hung the bamboo tube around her waist.

Fortunately, I breathed a sigh of relief. The origin of the flower flying was not strange. It had been in the bamboo tube on her waist all along. If it weren’t for that bamboo tube, I would have thought it came out of his stomach.

I had actually noticed her bamboo tube and asked her about it. She said it was for food, and I really believed her. This flower flying is food?

“Grandma Ling didn’t take Fa Fa away?” I couldn’t help but ask.

Ling Ruyue snorted and said, “Feifei has been with me since she was a child. If Grandma takes it away, it will be sad. It wants to stay with me.”

I and the crispy meat both started coughing at the same time. A spider would still be sad when it was a child?

A girl who plays with insects must marry an insect later, right? This was just a bad thought of mine at the time, but when I actually stepped into Miaojiang one day, I realized that marrying one’s own insect is not just an imaginary thing.

The matter of Hua Feifei was temporarily over. Ling Ruyue blinked her big eyes at us: “You saw Hua Feifei. You believe it now, right? Those ghost king insects, Feifei can handle them. Let’s go to the Hungry Ghost Tomb.”

Su Rou was itching to go, and turned to me and said, “Sanwa, you’ve studied for so many years, and Ru Yue isn’t afraid, so why are you afraid to go?”

I was also itching to go, and my fists were so itchy that my palms were itchy. I wanted to go, but just like that? I looked at Su Rou: “What if we encounter any danger inside?”

“What can you possibly encounter? Don’t you think about it? Grandpa Jiang, my grandma, Grandpa Huijue, and many others have already gone down there. If there is danger, they will solve it first. We are just going to see what the hungry ghost tomb looks like. You coward!” Ling Ruyue scolded me again for being a coward!

But I have to admit that the girl’s suggestion is so tempting. She is really smart, and she can analyze it.

“But what if Master and the others find out?” I followed the little girl’s train of thought without realizing it. When I thought about it later, I was really ashamed that I would ask an 11-year-old girl what to do if Master and the others found out.

“They’ve been gone for so long, if we go now, they won’t necessarily find out. Even if they do, they can’t kick us out. At worst, they’ll come back and scold us, but we can just act cute. My grandma loves me anyway.” Ling Ruyue tilted her head and said in a carefree tone.

Her tone of voice was casual, but her answer was really meticulous. She had thought of the good consequences, the bad consequences, and how to deal with the bad consequences.

The problem is that her grandmother loves me, but what about my master? My master loves me too, but do I have to flirt with him?

I suddenly felt a chill. Well, I’m going for it. I’ll be a spoiled brat.

At this point, my curiosity about the Hungry Ghost Tomb had reached a peak, and I stood up abruptly and said, “What are we waiting for? Let’s go! We can’t go with Su Rou, she has no self-defense skills at all!”

This is really for the good of Su Rou, because when it comes to danger, I and Hua Feifei still have some self-defense ability, but Su Rou has no self-defense ability at all.

“That won’t do, Sanwa. You can’t leave me behind today. I’ve never left you behind on anything, not the snake spirit, not the hungry ghost, and Master Jiang never disliked me. You can’t dislike me!” Su Rou shouted loudly.

I was hesitant. After all, I was only 15 years old, but I was not old enough to withstand the temptation. After all, Su Rou was my best friend. He was a young man with a youthful heart who always liked to be in the thick of things.

“Let Brother Fat go. I can protect him.” Ling Ruyue said lazily.

I realized at this moment that where Su Rou was the master of chaos, Ling Ruyue was the one who was afraid of chaos.

“Wait for me,” Su Rou shouted, then rushed into the kitchen, took the rolling pin, and put a kitchen knife in his pants.

“Is this enough?” Su Rou looked at me and said hopefully.

I looked at him speechless. What use could a kitchen knife and rolling pin be in the Hungry Ghost Tomb?

But I think my master has no qualms about taking Su Rou with him. There’s no reason for his best buddy to abandon him. Besides, the Hungry Ghost Tomb was first entered by my master and his friends, and they probably cleared out the danger. It should be fine to take Su Rou with us, right?

Thinking this way, I nodded and said to Su Rou, “Then what are you talking about? Let’s go. Put the rolling pin and knife away. It’s not like anyone will see it if you carry it on your body.”

Su Rou happily nodded and went to get my school bag, put away the kitchen knife and rolling pin, and then thought about it. Su Rou went to the kitchen and took a few big steamed buns and filled them in, and also filled a kettle with water.

“What are you doing? Going on a picnic?” I said helplessly. What are you doing with buns and water in the Hungry Ghost Tomb?

“Sanwa, didn’t you hear Guo Er say it? It took 5 or 6 minutes to walk down a corridor, so how big can it be? I thought about it when I got back. It takes 5 or 6 minutes to walk in a straight line, and you can walk from my house to your old house. “Su Rou is a pretty smart kid.

My home and Su Rou’s home used to be very close, but when you put them in a tomb, the distance is still a bit scary. Hearing this, I became interested and looked at him and said, “Then what?”

“I think that the tomb can’t be a straight line, right? What if, just in case, it’s crooked? We don’t know how long we have to walk, and we can’t delay dinner, can we?” Su Rou said.

“So big? I’m afraid that half of the village is under the tomb. Okay, let’s go.” I’m a person who does what he says, so after tidying up the bamboo hut and locking the door, I set off.

“What’s going on? How can we get in?” Su Rou was scratching his head and getting anxious. It turned out that the Hungry Ghost Tomb had already been walled in, with only a small gate left. At least five or six people were guarding the gate.

I didn’t expect this situation either. It’s also my fault for thinking that things would be simple. Since they built a wall, wouldn’t they have someone guarding it?

I bet these people will never let us in.

But since we’ve come all this way, I don’t want to go back without trying. So I said, “Let’s wait and see. Those people have to eat, right?”

“Not all of them will go to eat?” I felt depressed.

“Hey…” At this time, Ling Ruyue sighed softly. I and Su Rou looked back at her. Did she give up too?

But Ling Ruyue said, “I originally hid a little something, which Grandma doesn’t know about. Now I’ve used it, so I’ll have to be scolded by Grandma.”

“Then do you still want to go in?” Su Rou was anxious. He was not stupid and could tell from Ling Ruyue’s words that there was a way out of this matter.

I also said, “What’s the big deal about being scolded? I’m willing to take the consequences. Your grandmother scolded you, but my master really wants to beat me up. If you have a way, hurry up.”

“Okay then.” Ling Ruyue stood up excitedly. I had a fleeting illusion that the little girl had originally planned to do this, and she just needed me and Su Rou to give her a reason.

Is it to clarify the relationship at that time? Or am I thinking too much? Can a little girl have such a heart?

While I was still thinking, Ling Ruyue had already left the small hill where we were hiding and walked towards the soldiers guarding the gate with an innocent look on her face.
