Chapter 76: The Moon of the Living Dead
"How could this happen?" Li Ergou was completely stunned and murmured alone.
He never expected that things would develop in this direction.
"Brother Ergou, let's go quickly! The water level in this underground lake is rising." The fat man reminded.
Li Ergou looked down and found that it was indeed the case. In the blink of an eye, the water level had already exceeded his ankle.
I think it won't take long before the entire maze will be flooded by groundwater.
Seeing this situation, Liu Yuntao and Mr. Zhong could only sigh unwillingly, then turned around and started to return the same way.
"Uncle San, do you think grandpa is still alive?" Li Ergou glanced at the center of the lake and said with some concern.
Uncle San nodded and said firmly: "He must be alive, don't forget that he is the City God."
"I also believe that grandpa is still alive." Li Ergou looked bitter.
He had lost the closest person he had, and he didn't want his grandfather to have anything else. Li Ergou could not afford this kind of blow.
At this time, Shi Jinlong also walked towards Li Ergou and the others. He glanced at Uncle San and Li Ergou.
Then, he slowly said: "The result is just as my master expected. The old man became the largest corpse king in the underground maze. With him, it would not be so easy for others to plot against Long Yuan."
"Get out of here!"
Li Ergou was very disliked Shi Jinlong, and even more disgusted with his lofty appearance.
Seeing that Shi Jinlong was still taking advantage of the situation and was self-righteous, Li Ergou couldn't help but curse directly.
"Hmph, Li Ergou, right? Since you are the spiritual fetus from 25 years ago, we will meet again sooner or later."
After being scolded by Li Ergou, Shi Jinlong couldn't help but feel a little worried. He snorted coldly, and then left without looking back.
"Brother Ergou, don't be sad. Do you remember that I told you before that there is a dragon vein hidden under the underground maze?"
The fat man came over, patted Li Ergou on the shoulder, and comforted him.
"Oh, how do you say this?"
Li Ergou became interested. He knew that at this time, the fat man would not raise the dragon vein for no reason.
"Long Yuan should be hidden in the dragon vein. What I want to say is that maybe there is other space under this underground lake, and the old man will come back one day." The fat man explained.
Li Ergou nodded, and he had already begun to agree with the fat man's statement in his heart.
He knew that grandpa was not a reckless person. Since he did this, he must have his own considerations.
"Okay, Ergou, hurry up and leave! Your grandfather still left some things for you at home, so don't you plan to go back and take a look?"
Li Ergou was talking to the fat man, and Grandpa second came over and said to him.
"Oh, what's it?" Li Ergou asked quickly.
"You'll know when you go back."
The second grandfather said without saying it, pretending to be mysterious. After that, he walked into the Nine Palaces and Bagua Formation and prepared to leave.
"Don't worry, Ergou, your grandfather will definitely come back. The most important thing for us now is to find your father first."
Uncle San also came over, patted Li Ergou on the shoulder, and said earnestly.
"I understand, Uncle San."
Li Ergou nodded, and before going out, he took a last look at the place where grandpa disappeared.
At this time, the water surface had gradually returned to calm. The water dragon, which was extremely irritable before, disappeared completely because his grandfather suppressed the sarcophagus and sank into the bottom of the lake.
From today on, the underground maze has gone without thousands of resentful spirits, but there is a living dead person like grandpa.
Until now, everything that should and should not have happened has happened. Even if Li Ergou stays here, it will have no meaning.
With his current strength, he could not go to the bottom of the lake to suppress the corpse king, and then rescue his grandfather.
Moreover, the water level in the underground lake has been rising.
The only way is to leave quickly and think of other ways after the maze is out.
After leaving the underground maze, it was already past three o'clock at night. The wonder of Tengu's Moon Eat has long disappeared, and everything has returned to peace.
No matter what happens in the underground maze, everything is still the same as usual on the ground, and you can even see a few young men delivering food.
Since it was still early, Li Ergou and the others did not rush to return to Wolong Village, but came to Uncle San’s shop.
"Fatty, now, should you tell the truth? For example, why did you come to Yangcheng and why did you choose to help Ergou?" As soon as she sat down, Uncle San asked to the fat man.
After hearing this, the fat man stood up from his seat and said, "Li Sanyuan, I don't know what you mean."
"Hmph, what does it mean?"
Uncle San snorted coldly, then looked at the fat man and sneered: "Why do you believe you so easily? Will your descendant of the Heavenly Master's Dao willing to waste time in this small Yangcheng?"
After hearing this, the fat man's face began to become strange.
"Uncle San, stop talking."
Li Ergou pulled Uncle San, and at this time he was also very confused. He had doubted the purpose of the fat man staying with him.
At first, Li Ergou also thought that the fat man stayed by his side to help because he was curious about the underground maze and the truth about his father's disappearance 20 years ago.
But gradually, Li Ergou discovered that things were not as simple as that.
For example, the fat man had known about the battle between the Southern Sect and the Northern Sect in the cultivation world 300 years ago, and the identity of Li Ergou's spiritual fetal incarnation, but he did not tell Li Ergou.
It was not until he went to hell and went to Fengdu that the King of Hell told the matter that he told the truth.
For example, Li Ergou knew about the underground maze, and the fat man must have concealed some crucial information.
The reason why he never asked was not because he trusted the fat man completely, but because he cherished the friendship between the two.
After all, the fat man had rescued Li Ergou more than once, and even put himself in a desperate situation.
Li Ergou didn't want to know the truth, because the truth is often cruel. At least so far, the fat man has never harmed him, which is enough.
"Fatty, you have to think about it. Ergou cherishes your friend very much. If you tell him something on your own initiative, it will be different from when someone tells him one day in the future."
Uncle San was still unwilling to give up and said to the fat man.
"Okay, Li Sanyuan, you Mr. Rong Rong think about it."
The fat man lit a cigarette and sat back on the chair. He frowned and looked very entangled.
"Forget it, Fat Master, you don't need to say anything, and I don't want to know anything."
Seeing this, Li Ergou stood up and prepared to leave Uncle San’s shop and go outside to get some breath.
"Brother Ergou, sit down."
Unexpectedly, Li Ergou took two steps and was pulled back by the fat man.
Then he said, "Some things are really time to let you know."
