C27 (1/2)

Faang Wei's face turned ugly, but he had no other choice, and could only wait for the words to come out from his mouth and say what had happened to him. Unexpectedly, Shang Que just laughed and pulled him into the house, then happily pushed him to a room on the second floor. The room was neatly arranged, and the bedding seemed to have been freshly washed. The room smelled of sunlight and the table was filled with washing supplies. It was as if the owner had already predicted that there would be guests staying the night.

After tossing and turning in the city for the entire day, Faang Wei was already exhausted. He randomly washed up, laid on his bed and fell into a deep sleep.

Ah!” When he fell asleep, Faang Wei suddenly woke up from his dream. It was that dream again, that bridge again, that river again, those vengeful ghosts again. It was his grandfather who stood up when his life was hanging by a thread, using a nearly maimed method to save him.

He turned on the light and looked at the time, it was only three in the morning, but how could he still sleep? He simply put on his clothes and walked out, on the wall of the balcony, there was a large word ”dismantle” written on it.

Where did grandpa go? Why did he ask me to find a merchant that I have never mentioned before? And how did he get the huge amount of money in his bank card? Adjudicator... Nondissolving Bone … What exactly was Ghost Wondering Land referring to?

The more he thought about it, the more confused he became. Faang Wei sighed as he vaguely felt a conspiracy slowly approaching him.

Just then, a series of thumping sounds came out from behind him. Faang Wei pricked up his ears and listened carefully, it seemed to be the sound of footsteps.

At this late hour, who could it be? He turned his head around and saw that 'dismantled' again. Could it be …

Faang Wei thought of the news that was forced to break. Those people took the chance to sleep in the middle of the night while the house was demolished, pulled the people out of the house, and then bulldozed the house. The merchant house was once again the only family in this generation, could it be the legendary ”forced demolition team”?

Faang Wei quietly opened the door without turning on the light, using his own memories, he slowly made his way downstairs. There did not seem to be anything strange downstairs, Shang Fu and Shang Que should both be asleep by now. When Faang Wei confirmed that the doors and windows were closed, he heaved a sigh of relief and prepared to return to his room.

Suddenly, a figure flashed past his eyes, causing Faang Wei's heart to tighten. Someone's here!

He quickly followed, but the figure disappeared into thin air at an extremely fast speed.

”There was someone there just now. Did I see something wrong?” Faang Wei muttered to himself, and looked around the hall again. There was indeed no one, so he could only give up.

Just then, Faang Wei noticed a weak light coming out from a corner of the wall. He moved closer and looked down, it was a cave that could fit a person, and the light came from this cave.

Did that person just go in?

Faang Wei knew that he was a guest. Wandering around in his room late at night didn't seem like a good idea. But, if that 'thief' really did hide inside the cave, then that would be really bad. Faang Wei hesitated for a moment, but still decided to go inside the cave.

He never thought that there would be a ladder at the entrance of the cave. The ladder is made of wood, and a thin layer of water seeped out from it. Faang Wei went deeper and deeper, and the temperature became lower and lower, until he could not help but shiver. Was this why they would rather die than move?

After descending about ten metres, Faang Wei finally reached the bottom. Looking ahead, there was a long path that led to who knows where, and at the end of the path, there was a ball of dim light. The temperature inside the cave was extremely low, the turbid air emitted a faint stench, and Faang Wei carefully walked forward along the path.

In front of him was a magnificent underground chamber that practically took up half the space of a football field. Using the hazy light of the lamp, Faang Wei took a closer look, and saw that there were nearly a hundred coffins neatly arranged on top of the ”stadium”, one by one.

Some of these coffins were old and worn; it was unknown how many years they had been there for. Some of them were newly painted, their black lacquer reflecting the light …

Only then did Faang Wei remember that the first time he had talked to Shang Fu on the phone, the bell had told him that it was a coffin shop, but when he arrived at the merchant house, he discovered that it was just an ordinary residential building. At first, Faang Wei had thought that the merchant's coffin shop was closed due to demolition, but now he knew that the secret of the coffin shop was in the ground.

However, if the merchant was a serious merchant, why would the coffin be placed in such an eerie place? Do the guests have to go down to the ground to choose their coffins?

No matter what, Faang Wei knew that if he barged in, it would cause the master to be unhappy, furthermore it was extremely cold here, Faang Wei's entire body was trembling and he could only slowly retreat. Just at this moment, a strange sound suddenly came out. Faang Wei's heart shivered.

Faang Wei hid his body in the pathway, his eyes staring at the movement in the dark room. He had to first figure out the opponent's numbers and objectives, then plan his next move.

A dim yellow light shone onto hundreds of coffins. If not for the fact that Faang Wei had helped the God of Happiness guard the lamp of return since childhood, and was not afraid of these things, facing so many coffins alone in the middle of the night, he would have definitely been terrified.
