Horrible Live Streaming - C268 The Way to Break the Conundrum
That type of method is very similar to the one we encountered. After asking for awhile, Tang Rou learned that if we wanted to break through this layout, there are two ways.
The first was to burn the entire building down. If that happened, the entire layout, the corpse, and the souls trapped around the corpse would disappear like smoke into thin air. Those who were protected or affected by the layout before this would be punished, if not severely.
But even Tang Rou and I didn’t think that this method was appropriate. First of all, the man who was treated as a material for the formation was a descendant of the Bai Family.
The other method was a lot more complicated. Not only did he have to dig out the corpse from the cement ground, but he also had to find a way to rest the soul. This method was somewhat similar to the Taoist’s spirit, but it was easier said than done.
It had been more than ten years since he made this arrangement. Not only was the corpse sealed with cement, there were also other materials and some other settings. Only by doing this could this layout continue to play its role.
If he wanted to dig out the corpse, he would have to come into conflict with some of the protection measures in this area. It was very dangerous.
The stronger the mana of the person who set up this layout is, the better the effect of this layout will be. In the same way, the danger that we encounter will also be more severe, and it is possible that, in addition to failure, it will not only cause the soul of that prodigal descendant to dissipate, but it will also cause us to be involved and suffer greatly.
After Tang Rou carefully asked a few times, she finally hung up. At this moment, we had already arrived at the hotel where the old gramps lived.
After explaining everything in front of me, Tang Rou couldn’t help but tear up. She even shakily stood up and said that she had to bow to me and Tang Rou. Seeing this situation, I let out a long sigh in my heart.
According to Tang Rou’s friend, if she wanted to destroy this formation, then she would need to use some powerful mana or items to absorb or eliminate all of the evil energy in that formation. This way, the destroyer wouldn’t suffer any backlash and the corpse wouldn’t suffer any more damage.
Tang Rou and I currently don’t have enough mana to do anything, and if we go to get the Leader of the Sky Profound Dao, then there will be a change in the time it takes to do something. This is something we understand, even though Zhou Xue currently doesn’t dare to act rashly, it doesn’t mean that she won’t do anything in the future.
After some thought, this matter came to a deadlock.
“Old mister Bai, is there something that I can ask you?”
Tang Rou suddenly sat up straight. I seemed to have guessed Tang Rou’s intentions and was feeling a bit nervous.
“Our families are friends now, and you two have spent a lot of effort to help us. If you have anything to say, just say it, no need to be so polite.”
Old Man Bai was quite straightforward, which immediately made Tang Rou and I feel more at ease.
“Since that’s the case, I’ll just say it directly. I know that you have an ancient painting in your hand that was passed down from the previous dynasty. Can you show this painting to us?”
After Tang Rou said this, not just the old gramps, but even the others around her revealed an astonished expression. This was unavoidable, since donating an ancient painting was an extremely secretive matter.
“How do you know about this? What on earth are you planning? ”
The butler, who always had a bit of prejudice against me and Tang Rou, stood up and started criticizing us. This kind of tone made me feel extremely uncomfortable, and Tang Rou also revealed a displeased expression.
Old mister Bai, the two of us were running here and there because of this, and we almost lost our lives last night. Now, the person beside you is actually questioning me, if that’s the case, I don’t think we need to wade in this muddy water.
After saying this, Tang Rou went over and pulled my arm. As she walked out, she even gave me a look.
Of course, I knew that this was Tang Rou’s way of provoking others. If that Old Man Bai was suspicious of us, then this matter could only be put on hold for now. If the old man knew, then she would definitely stop us if she knew that Tang Rou and I had worked hard these past two days.
As expected, just as Tang Rou and I took two steps forward, Old Man Bai spoke up from behind us.
“Young people, why are you so impatient? I’ll get my butler to apologize to you all.”
After saying this, Old Man Bai coughed. Although the butler’s face still had an unsatisfied expression, he still coldly snorted at Tang Rou and me. Then, he turned around and stood to the side, no longer saying anything to stop them.
After seeing this situation, Tang Rou and I didn’t continue being hypocritical.
“As for how we obtained this information, I don’t mind telling you. Before this, I really wanted to find a magic tool that I could use, and I coincidentally saw news of your ancient painting being auctioned off and even donated. This item is definitely a very good item for us Daoists. Therefore, we wanted to buy this painting in the beginning. ”
As Tang Rou said this, she slowly paced back and forth in the room. The expressions of the people next to Old Man Bai also became more and more amazed. In reality, it was hard for the two of us to say anything about it, but things had already gotten to this point and we couldn’t continue hiding it.
Tang Rou cleared her throat and continued.
“Old mister Bai should also know the strength of our Tang Clan. Although my parents and grandfathers are no longer around, it shouldn’t be a problem to spend tens of millions to buy a painting. Furthermore, what I want is only the scroll of that painting.”
The old man nodded his head repeatedly with a suspicious look on his face, but it was quickly covered up.
