Chapter 210 - 208: The Truth Behind the Female Ghost

As soon as they set eyes on the grand tomb, the first thing that caught their attention was the towering stone archway, standing seven meters tall, with four gates and five pillars over four stories.

Upon seeing it, Zhao Jinde instinctively stopped in his tracks, observing it carefully before exclaiming, "This tomb is remarkable!"

"What’s so remarkable about it?"

"Brother Zhao, you know how to read tombs?"

Ma asked, puzzled.

"I learned a bit about this from my grandfather."

Zhao Jinde explained nonchalantly before continuing, "This must be the tomb of an official from the Great Zhu Dynasty!"

"Look, the top of the tomb resembles an official’s hat and seal, with a sacrificial hall below."

"In the middle, there’s an intricately engraved five-dragon noble stele, with the words ’Royal Grace’ carved in intaglio."

"On the sides, there are images of celestial Immortals ascending, suggesting that this tomb was likely granted by the Emperor."

"From this, it’s clear the tomb’s owner was either wealthy or noble..."

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

Just as Zhao Jinde finished speaking, a round of applause suddenly sounded out of nowhere.

"Who’s there?"

"Song Qing? Or Lu Heng?"

Realizing that it wasn’t Ma and Yang Qingshu clapping, Zhao Jinde immediately grew vigilant, scanning his surroundings with wary eyes.

"Well said!"

"If it weren’t for the tomb of an ancient high official, we wouldn’t have come all this way here!"

From the back of the tomb, three people slowly emerged.

The man leading them appeared to be around forty years old, not very tall, with a rather thin and gaunt frame.

Under the moonlight, his long, narrow face looked quite frightening.

Clearly, he was the one clapping earlier.

Flanking him were two tall and robust young men, standing like two Door Gods.

"Who are you?"

Zhao Jinde cautiously took two steps back, frowning as he asked.

"Wow, didn’t expect you lot to come here!"

At this moment, two more figures approached.

The one on the left was as thin as a rake.

While the one on the right, dressed in white, wore an eerie and terrifying female mask on his face.

"Ghost... ghost... female ghost..."

Ma only took one glance to recognize that the white clothes were the same as the female ghost they had encountered before!

"Stop shouting nonsense!"

"With your cowardly demeanor, you dare call yourself an outdoor streamer, yet you can’t even distinguish between humans and ghosts!"

The man with the pointed monkey-like face couldn’t help but curse, his face full of disdain.

As the two approached, the person in white on the right gently lifted the "face" to reveal a black, hideous smile.

Seeing this, Zhao Jinde, Ma, and Yang Qingshu finally understood.

All along, it was just this group deliberately pretending to be ghosts!

The creepy female ghost face was merely a specially made mask.

"If there’s nothing else, we’ll be taking our leave then!"

"The wife and kids are waiting at home, gotta hurry back!"

Yang Qingshu immediately pulled Zhao Jinde and Ma, speaking as they slowly stepped back.

"Hold on!"

"Since you’re here, you might as well stay!"

The man with the pointed monkey-like face suddenly shouted.

He then quickly took out something from his bosom, pointing it at Yang Qingshu and the others.

In the moonlight...

Oh my!

It was a handmade crossbow!

This thing might not be as powerful as a gun.

But if it hits a vital spot, it can still send you to Western Heaven.

Better safe than sorry!

"Brother, let’s talk this out!"

"We didn’t see anything, and we know nothing..."

Ma raised his hands, speaking with a sobbing tone.

"Cut the crap with me!"

"Throw everything on you to the ground, except your underpants!"

The man with the pointed monkey-like face threatened with the crossbow.

The two Door Gods on either side also took out knives, advancing slowly with fierce eyes on the three.

"Strip!"

Zhao Jinde and Ma looked pleadingly at Yang Qingshu.

But what could Yang Qingshu do at this moment?

So, he led the way and started to undress.

Soon enough, the three were stripped down to their underpants.

"Commander Yang, you’re quite fair-skinned!"

"And not lacking in assets either!"

The slender one standing next to the man in white sneered, eyeing Yang Qingshu up and down.

"Brother, you know me?"

Yang Qingshu asked with surprise.

"Of course!"

"The famous Air Force Commander on the Kuaiyin platform, how could I not know?"

"Commander Yang, I’ve actually been a fan for a while, regularly watching your Air Force streams."

"If it weren’t for you streaming in the Li Family Village, I wouldn’t have met you!"

The slender man’s smile, full of wrinkles, looked awkward.

Upon hearing this, Yang Qingshu and the others exchanged glances.

Such coincidences, what can you do!

"Oh, oh, oh, so we’re all family!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Qingshu quickly pleaded, "Brother, since we’re family, how about you persuade your big brother to let us go?"

"We really don’t know anything; we just came to Li Family Village for fun..."

"Heh!"

The slender man suddenly let out a cold laugh upon hearing this.

Then he shook his head and said, "Commander Yang, I really did try to persuade my big brother."

"Pretending to be a female ghost to scare you was actually my idea."

"My big brother wanted to kill all five of you. But since I’m a fan, how could I watch Commander Yang die?"

"So I thought if I scared you into running away, there’d be no trouble."

"But who’d have thought, there’s a road to heaven yet you won’t walk it, you barged into hell where there’s no entrance!"

"Now that you’ve fallen right under our noses, how can we pretend not to see?"

"To be safe, I’m afraid tonight’s just your unlucky night..."

After speaking, the slender man sighed softly, looking at Yang Qingshu and the others as if they were already dead.

Hearing this, how could the three not understand?

In the end, they were just too unlucky!

Seeking adventure led them right to the doorstep of grave robbers.

If they’d known, why explore the Li Family Village?

Wouldn’t going to the Zhang Family Village or Wang Family Village be better?

"Heh heh!"

The man in white suddenly laughed, revealing a slight interest with his ugly face, "Didn’t you come to Li Family Village to find ghosts?"

"Once you’re dead, see if you become ghosts yourselves."

These words drew laughter from all present, including the man with the pointed monkey face.

Want to see ghosts?

I’ll just turn you into ghosts!

"So there are no real ghosts in this world?"

At this point, Yang Qingshu inexplicably said.

"Ghosts my ass!"

"I’ve worked grave-digging for years, seen all kinds of corpses."

"But I’ve never seen a ghost!"

The man with the pointed monkey face sneered again, "Of course, if you three turn into ghosts after death, maybe then I can see one!"

Yang Qingshu nodded slightly, then suddenly laughed, "Then listen, who’s singing..."
