Stealing the Pen: Kirin's Primordial Lotus

Zhang Qishan and his two companions followed the traces and found the tomb of the prince and noble who was lying prone for burial.

"Hey, Master Buddha, this isn't right?" Master Qi Ba exclaimed as he walked around the tomb chamber that was visible at a glance.

"How come the main chamber of this burial pit is so small when it's so big? And there's not even a burial chamber for companions?"

"It looks like it was dug out temporarily. Isn't that right? It doesn't conform to the burial style of those princes and nobles."

"Indeed, it's too simple."

Zhang Qishan frowned and looked around, his hand on the dagger on his waist.

"Master Ba, please be careful. I'm afraid there is something fishy going on."

When Mr. Qi Ba heard that there was a trick, he immediately hid behind Zhang Xishan and looked into the tomb chamber.

"I'll go in and take a look first. You guys wait at the door."

Zhang Qishan took the lead and walked into the tomb. The silence of the tomb did not make Zhang Qishan feel safe. Instead, he felt a chill rising from his heart.

Zhang Xishan and Mr. Qi Baye stood at the door, watching Zhang Qishan walk around in the tomb again and again.

Just when Zhang Qishan relaxed his vigilance, he heard what Mr. Qi Ba said.

"Master Buddha, did you hear any sound?"

"what sound?"

"It sounds like the sound of opera, but it's intermittent and very quiet. It disappears when the wind blows."

As Mr. Qi Ba said this, he ran into the tomb and pricked up his ears to listen more carefully. Just as he lay down on the wall of the tomb, he saw a flash of blue light where his palm touched.

Zhang Qishan quickly pulled Mr. Qi over, only to see that the tomb, which had been empty just a moment ago, was instantly filled with things glowing blue.

When Mr. Qi Ba saw the scene in front of him, he screamed and crawled out of the tomb. After Zhang Qishan saw that Mr. Qi Ba was out safely, he began to destroy those things that were glowing blue.

Zhang Qishan fired a lot of shots with his pistol, but the things still kept appearing. Zhang Qishan immediately asked Zhang Xishan to go out to protect the Eighth Master and close the door of the tomb to prevent these things from flying out.

Although Zhang Xishan wanted to help Zhang Qishan, at this juncture, if he stayed he would only be a hindrance. He rolled out the door and closed the main tomb chamber door.

During the fight with these things, Zhang Qishan discovered that they were afraid of fire.

Not far from him was a torch left behind by the previous group of people. After gathering these things in a small space, he threw the torch in.

After those things were destroyed, Zhang Qishan finally had the time to look at the unfinished main tomb chamber.

A jade pendant was found behind a wall, and engraved on that jade pendant was the family emblem of Mr. Hong Erye's family.

Zhang Qishan recalled the information given to him by Mr. Hong Er, which recorded that his second uncle was invited by the Sakura people to explore the mines. Perhaps this was what fell at that time.

Zhang Qishan put away the jade pendant and was about to walk towards the door when he found that his finger had been cut and a clump of hair had gotten inside. He felt unwell and quickly ran towards the door.

After Zhang Qishan pushed open the tomb door, he felt dizzy. Fortunately, Zhang Xishan and Qi Baye supported him in time.

"Go to the Red Mansion."

Zhang Qishan fainted after he finished speaking.

Mr. Qi Baye and Zhang Xishan supported Zhang Qishan and stumbled out of that place.

When Zhang Xishan was approaching the exit, he found that the person lying on the ground was the old man who had brought them here.

He thought that there was an ambush outside. After giving instructions to Master Qi, he went out of the tunnel entrance alone.

After a hard battle, Zhang Xishan finally wiped out the Sakura people who were ambushing outside.

The figures of Zhang Xishan, Qi Baye and Zhang Qishan fleeing in a panic fell into the sight of the two groups of people.

Not long after Hua Yu and Hong Erye returned to the mansion, Zhang Xishan and Qi Baye appeared carrying Zhang Qishan.

"Second Master, please save my Buddha Master."

Er Yuehong looked at Zhang Qishan who had fallen into a coma, and Zhang Xishan and Qi Baye who looked like they had just rolled out of the mud.

"Are you guys rolling around in the mud? Did you knock Zhang Qishan unconscious with the mud? But shouldn't you go find a doctor if he's unconscious? What's the point of calling Eryue?"

Before Zhang Xishan could explain their purpose, he was interrupted by Hua Yu's call.

"Playboy, we are investigating the ghost car incident, but we were ambushed for some reason, so we are in a bit of a mess."

"So you just escaped back?"

After Er Yuehong checked Zhang Qishan's condition, he also saw the hair that had got into Zhang Qishan's fingers.

"Butler Wang, go to my study and get the box. Then prepare hot water, clean towels, realgar water, candles, tweezers, clean water, and a brazier."

After hearing this, Butler Wang asked the servants to prepare what Er Yuehong mentioned, and he went to get the box himself.

Butler Wang came to Er Yuehong holding the box and handed it to her.

"Adjutant Eighth Master, please hold down Master Buddha."

After Zhang Xishan and Qi Baye held down Zhang Qishan, Er Yuehong held a pair of tweezers and placed them on the fire. He picked up Zhang Qishan's fingers, clamped the clump of hair with the tweezers, pulled it out hard, threw it into the brazier, and then pressed Zhang Qishan's hands into the realgar water.

Zhang Qishan screamed in a coma.

After a while, Er Yuehong took out Zhang Qishan's hand and put it back into the clean water.

He opened the box behind everyone's back, took out a small piece of something, stuffed it into Zhang Qishan's mouth, and drank it down with hot water.

"Second Master, what is that?"

"That was a piece of Qilinjie that I got by chance."

"Qilinjie?" Mr. Qi Ba was a little surprised when he heard the name of that thing.
