Where there are Tibetan sea flowers, there must be golden coccidia.

After Zhang Rishan came out, he quickly found Luo Que in the pit he had just entered, where he was leading his men to try to dig a tunnel through the tomb from the outside.

Seeing Zhang Rishan and Ling Yue walking up from behind, and noticing that Zhang Rishan was naked, Luo Que was slightly taken aback, but quickly realized what was happening and found a piece of clothing to hand to Zhang Rishan.

He put his clothes back on, blocking the gaze that had been constantly drawn to him all the way.

Zhang Rishan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and instructed Luo Que: "No need to dig anymore, just use explosives to completely seal this place off."

If the golden coccidia were to escape, this forest would likely be devoid of life.

Fortunately, without the nourishment of the Tibetan sea flower, the golden coccidia, which have a symbiotic relationship with the sea flower, cannot reproduce and will die after sleeping underground for decades.

Luo Que responded and quickly led his men to set everything up, stuffing enough gunpowder into every hole that led to the underground tomb.

With a series of rumbling sounds and the earth shaking, the secret underground palace that the fourth grandfather of the Chen family and the Buddha had built together disappeared completely.

"Luo Que, Master Jie should be arriving soon. Go and meet him for me," Zhang Rishan instructed Luo Que.

Luo Que hesitated for a moment, then lowered his head and replied, "Yes, I'll go right now."

This was the first time Ling Yue had heard about the head of the Xie family.

After Luo Que left, Ling Yue casually asked, "Why did you ask him to pick you up?"

Could it be that Zhang Rishan also had ulterior motives towards the Xie family? Otherwise, why would he send Luo Que to pick up people knowing that Luo Que was problematic?

Ling Yue believed that if he could get an answer, he would gain something; if he couldn't get an answer, he wouldn't lose anything.

Surprisingly, Zhang Rishan actually gave a positive answer: "Because there is a scene that requires his presence to start."

On a speeding train, Xie Yuchen glanced at Luo Que, who was sitting opposite him eating a lollipop and resting with his eyes closed. After estimating the time, he picked up his black umbrella, got up, and walked out of the compartment.

As soon as I stepped out, several people approached me from both sides of the aisle.

Xie Yuchen glanced at the scenery outside the glass window and decisively went to meet one of them.

The sounds of fighting quickly drew Luo Que out of the private room, and the two clashed with several members of the Wang family in the narrow aisle.

Even though Xie Yuchen and Luo Que are both skilled fighters, they are ultimately no match for four opponents.

Just as Xie Yuchen was caught off guard and the Wang family members grabbed him by the neck with a rope, Luo Que was forced to retreat repeatedly.

Suddenly, a small knife was thrown out, piercing the air, and aimed directly at Luo Que's brow.

At the critical moment, Xie Yuchen cut the rope around his neck and threw out his black umbrella to shield Luo Que from the blow.

He himself was unable to dodge in time and was stabbed in the heart by a member of the Wang family.

Xie Yuchen coughed up a mouthful of blood, and in a panic, he barely managed to open the car window and jumped out without thinking.

Just then, the train passed over a high bridge, with a rushing ravine below.

Even if a master from the Wang family jumped in unharmed, they might not survive such a powerful current.

The Wang family and Luo Que all peered down, only to catch a glimpse of a black figure disappearing into the splashing, churning white water, vanishing in the blink of an eye.

One member of the Wang family frowned: "Should we still pursue it?"

Luo Que turned around, looked at the black umbrella on the ground that had just blocked his knife, and shook his head: "His plan has been disrupted by us. This place is definitely not the landing point for his other fake death plan."

Unless someone wants to commit suicide, why would they choose such a place to fake their death?

This is not only the most turbulent and dangerous ravine, but also a place with steep cliffs on both sides for thousands of meters, with countless hidden currents and reefs. Even local experts in swimming dare not attempt it.

Not to mention that Xie Yuchen was seriously injured...

The other members of the Wang family shared this view.

However, just to be on the safe side, one of them said, "After we get off the bus, we'll split up. One group will search downstream along the river, and the other group will go back to report our mission."

The speaker turned to look at Luo Que.

Luo Que nodded: "I will go back and report to Zhang Rishan, and then I will stay by his side!"

While ostensibly fulfilling a duty, the real purpose was to keep an eye on Zhang Rishan and see if he made any other unusual moves.

As long as Zhang Rishan has not disappeared, Xie Yuchen's death is an absolute fact.

As Luo Que thought of this, Ling Yue's image flashed through her mind. If it were her...

Having put this idea aside, Luo Que separated from the others, feigning panic, and went back to call Zhang Rishan.

On the phone, Luo Que clearly heard Kan Jian talking to Ling Yue, which completely put his mind at ease.

It seems that Xie Yuchen, despite his meticulous planning, still overlooked one crucial detail.

He wanted to use the Wang family to fake his death and escape, but he didn't expect that the Wang family had already received the news and moved up the time and place of their attack, so he had no chance to wait for the location where he had set up the black umbrella to jump off the cliff and fake his death.

After hanging up the phone, Luo Que composed himself, looked at the black umbrella that had shielded him from the knife, and murmured, "If you follow me, you'll at least have a skeleton left behind."

It's not like I've lived in vain.

After saying that, Luo Que casually threw the black umbrella into a roadside trash can, turned around and got into a car.

On the other end, after hanging up the phone, Zhang Rishan calmly walked back to the counter and turned off the recording device.

Inside the room, Ling Yue and Kan Jian's conversation abruptly stopped.

The rumbling train didn't stop for anyone; after passing the high bridge, it quickly disappeared into the tunnel.

Beneath the high bridge, amidst the rushing mountain stream, Ling Yue, who had been waiting there for some time, had temporarily stopped cursing Old Master Duan in his heart for being a scoundrel as soon as he heard the sound of the train.

On the surface, Luo Que was sent to pick up Xie Yuchen, but in the end, she was secretly sent to this mountain stream to wait for him in the water.

Before coming, Ling Yue thought, "Isn't it just going into the water?"

How difficult could it be?

Easy to handle.

Upon arriving here, looking at the thunderous sound of the water and the spray that could reach ten meters high as it crashed against the cliff, Ling Yue remained silent for a long time.

If Zhang Rishan hadn't been absent, the tricycle that brought her here would have long since disappeared. Ling Yue really wanted to ask him if he was deliberately trying to kill her.

With no other option, Ling Yue could only proceed according to plan, holding a huge rock and waiting underwater at the agreed time.

Underwater visibility is poor, and the water currents are so violent that countless tiny white bubbles are constantly being generated.

Fortunately, Ling Yue was no ordinary person; he managed to slide past a black figure just as it was about to fall headfirst.

Before the other person was swept away by the undercurrent and turned into a bouncing ball, he grabbed them and caught them.

For the first hundred meters or so, Ling Yue swam blindly by instinct, unable to see what was ahead.

It wasn't until they were about 100 meters away, when the current had lessened, that Ling Yue was able to lift the person to the surface.

Only then did she have time to turn around and check on the man's condition.

The moment Ling Yue scooped the person up in his hands, he knew that the person had already fainted in mid-air.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for anyone to have muscles so relaxed and powerless when facing life and death.

Upon closer inspection, it was indeed found that the person was barely breathing, and a reddish tinge had appeared around the heart.

The blood that flowed out was constantly diluted and carried away by the water flow.

Just like his gradually weakening heartbeat.

Ling Yue couldn't help but frown. He had previously suspected that Xie Yuchen was an ambitious schemer hiding behind Wu Xie and the others.

Now she couldn't help but wonder if Zhang Rishan was just pretending to be weak while actually being strong.

On the surface, he appeared calm and detached from worldly affairs, but in reality, he used a scheme to eliminate the only third-generation heirs of the Wu and Xie families, who were capable of upholding the family's reputation.

After all, who arranged this fake death for themselves, making the fake death and real death so close?
