Tomb raiding: The awesome life that started from Ganggangyingzi

Chapter 65: Departure from the 7-Star Lu Palace, On the Way…

Two days later, on a mountain road somewhere in Shandong, an old man with a bitter smile on his face led an oxcart slowly, huffing and puffing.

"Hey! Old man, your ox is exhausted, why don't you go push the cart from behind?"

"Ha ha ha ha…"

"You fat bastard, since you feel sorry for the cow, why don't you go down and help it? If the old man won't push it, you push it!"

"Ha ha ha ha…"

"That won't do. It's always been old men pushing carts, never fat men. With my big and fat body, I can't let this broken cart fall apart!"

"Haha... that's probably because you lack experience and haven't mastered the balance. Just try pushing it a few more times and you'll get the hang of it."

"Go to hell, Panzi! I drove around a few times the other day, and the madam even praised my driving skills."

"Ha ha ha ha…"

A group of men sitting together naturally kept talking dirty, chatting and laughing hysterically.

Ji Haobo sat in the back, puffing on his cigarette, and looked at the old ox in front of him, panting heavily, and couldn't help but shake his head.

Eight people were sitting on the small oxcart. If most of the mountain road wasn't a gentle downhill slope, the ox would probably have been exhausted and couldn't have pulled it.

On the oxcart, a young man with fair skin and delicate features, Wu Xie, curiously approached and made a joke with a grin.

"Master Bo, I heard from my third uncle that you're a master. Dressed like the CEO of a big company, are you going to a tomb to hold a board meeting for zombies?"

"White-faced boy, your eyesight isn't very good at such a young age!"

Ji Haobo blew a puff of smoke at him, a smile playing on his lips.

"I don't look like a CEO of a big company, I'm more like a mafia boss. I don't know how to hold board meetings, but I'm a pro at smashing plates in cemeteries."

The kid looked around excitedly the whole way down the tomb; hopefully he'd wet his pants after they got inside.

"Hehehe! The nickname 'White Face' suits you quite well, kid."

Fatty Wang chuckled strangely beside him, and seeing his excited expression, he shook his head in a teasing tone.

"You delicate-skinned girl, instead of studying in the city, you insist on coming out with your third uncle to roam the world. Don't call for your mother if you encounter evil spirits or monsters."

Upon hearing this, Wu Xie's lips twitched, he scratched his head awkwardly, and then, very curious, quickly asked:

"Fatty, what are these ghostly spirits and evil things you're talking about? Do ghosts really exist?"

"Of course they love it! A cabbage like you is their favorite, whether they're used to eat meat or whatever! You're top-quality!"

Wu Xie felt that Fatty Wang was looking him up and down with a strange smile, looking lewd, which made his anus tighten and he quickly shifted his body.

Upon seeing this, a burly man nearby immediately began to flatter him, passionately expressing his loyalty.

"Young Master, if anything happens, just go ahead boldly. Da Kui will protect you from all demons and monsters."

Fatty Wang disliked this burly, sycophantic man and gave a cold sneer.

"Damn it, you're like an old sow wearing a cursed hat, one trick after another, and you still keep going! Do you think Bai Mian'er is a human pathfinder?"

"you…"

Da Kui felt that this fat guy was deliberately misinterpreting his meaning and making sarcastic remarks. He immediately glared at him angrily and wanted to say something, but was stopped by his companion.

"Alright, Da Kui, calm down. Fatty was just joking, don't take it seriously."

"But Panzi, this guy is clearly targeting me..."

Da Kui was also puzzled. This fat guy had been getting along well with everyone along the way, but he seemed to have a problem with him.

Little did he know that this was all instructed by Ji Haobo before he arrived. In the plot, Da Kui's death was too unexpected, and some people said that it was Wu Laosan who did it on purpose.

Ji Haobo was also curious about this, so he asked Fatty Wang to test him.

"Alright, stop arguing. The dock that the old driver mentioned should be up ahead, but it looks deserted. Could we have been scammed?"

Wu Laosan, who was sitting at the front, heard the angry shouting behind him and interrupted Da Kui's words, then squinted at the old man.

"Boss, you're right, this dock is indeed abandoned."

The old man leading the ox felt as if he had a thorn in his side and quickly turned around to explain.

“If the road into the mountains hadn’t been blocked by a landslide caused by heavy rain a few days ago, I wouldn’t have brought you here.”

But please rest assured, boss, although the dock is abandoned, there are still boatmen available. You can take one of their boats directly to the vicinity of the village.”

Seeing his explanation, Wu Laosan nodded and didn't say anything more. Anyway, he had hired two experts, so he wasn't afraid of others causing trouble.

Soon the oxcart arrived at a dilapidated little dock, surrounded by reeds.

Ahead was a river several tens of meters long, with relatively clear and calm water.

"Old man, where's the boatman you mentioned?"

Wu Laosan glanced at the empty river surface and looked at the old man with an unfriendly tone.

"Please wait a moment, boss, I'll call it over right away."

The old man's heart trembled, and he quickly shouted to those around him.

"Donkey testicles...donkey testicles..."

As he shouted, a rustling sound came from the reeds in the distance, and soon a dirty, big black dog darted out.

As the dog ran past Wu Xie, he smelled a stench that sent chills down his spine.

But the old man acted as if nothing was wrong, patting the donkey's head.

"Go and call your master over. We have a customer. Tell him to bring the boat here quickly."

The dog was quite intelligent; upon receiving the command, it jumped into the water with a "plop" and swam towards a reed bed.

"Please wait a moment, boss. The boatman will be here soon."

The old man bowed and scraped, greeted Wu Laosan, and then led the cow to graze nearby.

His old friend is exhausted today; I wonder how much he'll earn from this job.

After waiting for about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, two wooden boats, one large and one small, appeared in the reeds not far away.

The boatman steered the small boat, which was powered by a small diesel engine that was belching out black smoke.

"Boss, the boatman is here too, look..."

Seeing that his task was basically completed, and that the rest was up to the boatman, the old man wanted to collect his wages and leave quickly.

Wu Laosan didn't hesitate. He paid the old man the agreed price and walked towards the boatman who was docked. He returned shortly afterward and told everyone to get on the boat.

The boatman's small boat was pulling ahead, and everyone sat on the larger boat.

Wu Laosan's expression was solemn as he looked at Ji Haobo and Zhang Qilin and whispered:

"Brother Bo, Brother Zhang, we've run into a tough character this time. The boatman and the dog both reek of corpses; they must have been eating human flesh for a long time."

"hiss…"

Upon hearing this, the faces of the people nearby changed, their stomachs churned, and they felt nauseous.

Wu Xie, in particular, almost vomited. He had recently smelled the pungent stench of donkey testicles and thought it was because they were dirty, but now he realized it was actually...

"Third Uncle, why do you think the boatman eats human flesh? It can't be because he has no food, can it?"

Ji Haobo smirked and slowly looked at the crowd, saying:

"Because there's a cave full of corpses ahead, they need to accumulate yin energy within their bodies; otherwise, they wouldn't be able to get in at all, and how could they possibly rob and kill?"
