Chapter 61: The Murky Waters of Mount Yin

  When I heard Han Feiyan mention this, on the surface I didn't react much, but in my heart I had a lot of thoughts.

  I don't know what Han Feiyan reminded me of this sentence, and I haven't even investigated Su Ping's identity yet, saying that Su Ping can't be stained?

  Su Ping said Han Feiyan is not simple and not worth trusting, Han Feiyan said Su Ping is poisonous and can't be touched. So who should I believe? Also, how come it feels like nothing has happened, but these two people have already taken a confrontational stance?

  I wanted to go home, but I didn't say anything. After Han Feiyan helped me reapply my makeup, I also asked her to prepare some delicious food for me. It wasn't until after I finished eating that I left Han Feiyan's house.

  After leaving Han Feiyan's home, I wandered around outside for a while and then prepared to sleep. But who would have thought that just as I found a place to sleep, another person appeared beside me, and this person was Su Ping again.

  Seeing Su Ping, I asked her with a slanted eye: "Damn! Why are you looking for me again? What if someone sees this?"

  Seeing me talking to her like this, Su Ping didn't respond directly to what I said, but instead asked me back: "How's that? Did you get away with it?"

  "That's necessary, nothing else will do, even if it means telling a lie, Han Feiyan didn't detect any flaws."

  "That's good, actually I came to tell you that if you're interested, tomorrow I can take you to the back mountain of the witch's house to search for clues about the disappearance of Tan Nu."

  "Tomorrow? Alright! I'd rather go find her tonight!" I was overjoyed when I heard Su Ping's words.

  "Not tonight, it's dark and not good for searching. If we bring torches or something, it'll be too conspicuous and easy to get caught. Let's do it tomorrow afternoon instead, the village hasn't had any outsiders recently so there's no need to keep an eye out for them, and I'm free anyway."

  When Su Ping said this, I quickly nodded and said: "Well, let's do it then!"

  See, I promised, Su Ping suddenly coquettishly squatted down and said to me: "Why don't you not sleep outside anymore, go to my house to sleep? My home doesn't have any outsiders coming to visit, and I generally don't contact the women in the village either, they won't find out that you went to my house."

  As soon as I heard Su Ping say this, I immediately became vigilant.

  "What's wrong? Don't tell me you want it again?"

  As soon as I asked her this, Su Ping immediately became embarrassed.

  "How can you be defeated by me once and can't take it? Hurry up and leave! If you find out where Tan Nu is tomorrow, do whatever you want!"

  "Is this what you said?" Su Ping said to me with a hint of surprise and curiosity.

  "I mean it!" I replied!

  "Alright! Tomorrow after noon, let's gather at the west entrance of the village and go together." Su Ping said.

  "Whatever you say!" I replied.

  Listening to me say that, Su Ping nodded her head in satisfaction and left with a pleased expression. After Su Ping left, I casually replied to her back figure

  "My god, she's really a female hooligan..."

  ......

  After sleeping till dawn, I wandered around the village again in the afternoon and was teased by Ah Xing and others. At noon, I headed towards the west of the village.

  After I arrived at the west end of the village, I squatted in the grass and waited patiently. About half an hour later, I saw Su Ping wearing a ethnic minority costume walking towards me. As she walked, I could still hear the tinkling sound from the silver ornaments on her clothes.

  To be honest, I had never heard such a sound coming from the clothes on Su Ping's body before. This kind of sound seemed like she was intentionally making it to attract my attention.

  After hearing the sound and seeing her, I threw a stone at her to make her notice me. Then we two went towards the direction of the witch's house, about ten meters apart from each other.

  When we arrived in front of the witch's house, we looked around. After seeing that there was no danger except for the big man guarding the door, we went around the witch's house and soon came to the foot of the mountain.

  It wasn't until we reached the foot of the mountain that Su Ping and I finally met up and talked.

  "I was here last time and couldn't find those three jars. Take a look inside, there might be a hidden entrance below, we can go in and take a look."

  Seeing me say this, Su Ping nodded and then took me around to find it.

  After searching around in a circle, just like I did before, Su Ping didn't find anything suspicious either. However, at this moment, I saw Su Ping's eyebrows twitching slightly as she gazed out at the distant river, looking as if she had encountered something that puzzled her.

  "You can't have noticed nothing either?" I asked her.

  "Shut up, I suddenly feel that something is off about this place! Let's go! Go take a look at that river over there."

  When Su Ping suddenly said this, I didn't refute her and followed her towards that small river.

  After we arrived at this small river, Su Ping's brow furrowed even more.

  "Have you noticed anything wrong with this river water?" Su Ping asked me.

  "What's wrong with the water in this small river? Isn't it just a bit murky? What's the problem? Could there be some kind of trap or hidden cave under the riverbed?" I asked Su Ping back.

  "It's not like that! Think about it, there are usually very few people coming here, and this river water should be from the mountain behind, such a mountain spring water, why is it so turbid?"

  "Ah! Maybe it's been stirred up by some animal, the water is a bit murky. What business of yours is it whether the water is muddy or not? Are you out of your mind?" I looked at Su Ping and felt a bit annoyed.

  She didn't listen to me, Su Ping continued: "Also, because this small river is at the foot of the mountain in the back, the big mountain blocks it, resulting in no sunlight shining into the river, forming a piece of unlucky land."

  "What's wrong with the land? What's wrong with the land?" Su Ping's words made me more and more confused.

  "The river water is murky, and the mountain below is shaded. According to Feng Shui, this is a place of 'murky water and shaded mountains'!" Su Ping intentionally emphasized the four words "murky water and shaded mountains".

  "What the...! You still understand Feng Shui? How did you bring up Feng Shui again?" I feel like Su Ping's words are getting more and more absurd.

  Seeing that I didn't understand, Su Ping continued: "I learned some Feng Shui in my early years, but only the surface. A place like this has a very heavy yin evil energy. If someone is buried in such a place, their corpse will change, and their family will suffer misfortune, with three generations cut off!"

  "Whatever! Stop speaking that nonsense I don't understand, is it useful for you to tell me these things? Why do I suddenly feel like you've become a female stick?! I'm getting angrier the more I listen!"

  I listened and felt a bit angry, Su Ping said to me: "If I'm not wrong, the slave should be hidden somewhere nearby. And I vaguely guessed it already, what kind of trick is this witch trying to play by making these slaves!"

  "You guessed it? Then you'd better say something!" I said hastily.

  "This is not the time to talk, first help me find where Tuan Nu is hiding and then we'll talk." After saying these cold words, Su Ping started searching around.

  "Damn it! Lori just spouted a basketful of nonsense that I couldn't understand, are these stupid women crazy?" After scolding her back, I started searching around.

  But I carefully searched around for a long time, and I didn't find anything. Su Ping also felt her way through the murky water of the river, searching around in circles, and it seemed like she hadn't found any mechanism or hidden cave either.

  Just as I was about to fall into despair, I suddenly saw that at a distance of about five meters from the riverbank, some grass on the lawn had withered, and the ground seemed to have been disturbed.

  Seeing this situation, I hastily shouted towards Su Ping in the river.

  Upon hearing my shout, Su Ping quickly walked over and after taking a glance at this area said: "The grass will wither, it's proof that someone has been here."

  Then, Su Ping grabbed a handful of soil from this piece of land with her hand, and suddenly stared at her eyes: "The soil here is wetter than the surrounding area, and the soil quality is very loose. It's certain that someone has moved it. Now, listen to me, start digging on this piece of land, maybe there will be unexpected gains."

  Before I could even lift a hand, Su Ping had already started digging by herself. Seeing that the girl was already working, it wouldn't be right for me not to lend a hand, so I also began digging this land.

  Although the soil is loose here, it's still not easy to dig by hand. In between, we found some thicker branches and used them as digging tools.

  After we dug to a certain extent, suddenly, the ground beneath us was empty, and then the soil in front of us collapsed instantly by more than half. After this collapse formed an opening, we looked intently at this opening, which scared me so much that my hair stood on end...
