Chapter 162.1
True to his status as an Innate expert, it wasnt long before the Heavenly Dog Divine Detective climbed out of the pit that was created by his fall.
Facing a group of monks who were staring in disbelief, he dusted himself off and gave a sheepish smile, That was just an accident! Just now, as I was preparing to climb to the mouth of the cave, I heard a strange noise, got distracted, and fell! It definitely wont happen again! Just wait patiently, Ill be back in no time!
After finishing his words, he once again executed his movement skill and soared upward.
Just at that moment, he heard that strange sound again, causing his mind to wander once more.
By the time he came to his senses, it was too late.
A massive boulder fell from above, landing directly on his forehead.
The Heavenly Dog Divine Detective let out a terrible scream.
Ouggh!
Then, both the man and the boulder plummeted to the ground.
The Heavenly Dog Divine Detective hit the ground first, followed closely by the boulder, which landed once again on the Heavenly Dogs forehead.
And so, the Heavenly Dog Divine Detective let out another agonizing scream.
Ugghh!
The monks:
Moments later, the Heavenly Dog Divine Detective climbed out of the pit once again, looking extremely embarrassed. He said, That was another accident; it doesnt count! This time Ill plug my ears, so there shouldnt be any problems!
After plugging his ears with his hair, the Heavenly Dog Divine Detective once again soared upward.
In less than a moment, he fell down splendidly again.
Boom!
Ouch!
The monks:
In the time that followed, the Heavenly Dog Divine Detective suffered defeat after defeat, yet he kept fighting on.
He retraced the old monks path entirely.
In the end, he was covered in wounds.
The old monk couldnt bear to watch anymore: Amitabha! Heavenly Dog donor, please give up, you cannot make it up there! If you continue to struggle, you will only lose your precious life!
The Heavenly Dog Divine Detectives face smeared with blood, his features twisted in ferocity, exclaimed, I refuse to believe it! A mere pitfall cannot defeat me! My fate is in my own hands, not dictated by the heavens!!!
Once again, he executed his movement skill, his figure gracefully soaring into the sky.
Then, once more, he landed cleanly back on the ground.
Ouch!
Boom!
The monks:
Three days later, Lin Beifan received a message from Song Yufei.
The Heavenly Dog Divine Detective has also disappeared; he may have encountered some misfortune! He vanished while searching for Master Sanchi, and the situation is very serious. The Buddhist Sect is taking it very seriously and has called upon another divine detective!
Lin Beifan calmly sipped his tea: What is the surname and name of this divine detective, and what are his abilities?
Song Yufei replied: The divine detectives name is Guo Jianglong, and he is particularly skilled at tracking criminals. Moreover, his movement skill is so extraordinary that he is capable of competing with your subordinate, the Empty Hand Master! It is said that he has already found a trace of the Heavenly Dog Divine Detective and is currently on the trail. We should be receiving news soon!
Lin Beifan nodded: Guo Jianglong, he is quite an impressive detective, I have great respect for him!
Because he had already found that pit.
He was lying on the edge of the pit, shouting loudly: Is there anyone down there? Anyone? Heavenly Dog, I have tracked you down. If youre still alive, respond!
Im Im here! Master Sanchi is also here! Everyone is A weak voice came from beneath the pit.
Although the voice was fragile and intermittent, Guo Jianglong could tell that it was the voice of Heavenly Dog.
The two were both friends and foes, very familiar with each other.
Thus, Guo Jianglong was overjoyed: Its good that youre there, Im coming down now to rescue you all!
The voice from below became anxious: You mustnt come down, dont come down!
Guo Jianglong was very puzzled: Why shouldnt I come down?
Because if youve come down, you cant go up again!
What? You bastard, how dare you underestimate me like that! Guo Jianglong felt as if he had received the greatest insult in his life.
Anyone should know that his proudest skill was his movement skill; no matter how treacherous the terrain, he could traverse it as if it were flat ground.
There was no river he couldnt cross, no mountain he couldnt climb. (TLN: His name means The Dragon that Crosses the River)
Back then, he had received a mission to track down the worlds number one thief, the Empty Hand Master. After chasing him for over a month, the thief had used every trick in the book but still couldnt shake him off, which greatly enhanced his reputation.
And now, this damned bastard had the audacity to say that this little pit could trap him?
Fuming inside, he wanted to show the other party the level of his movement skill, to make him realize he shouldnt underestimate him.
However, he was still very cautious.
First, he checked the surroundings of the hole and, finding no issues, he jumped down.
Heavenly Dog and Master Sanchi, I, Guo Jianglong, have come to rescue you!
The Heavenly Dog Divine Detective panicked, Why did you come down? Didnt I tell you not to?
Guo Jianglong replied nonchalantly, If I dont come down, how can I rescue you?
The old monks face was filled with sorrow, Its over, its over, another one has joined us, Amitabha!
Amitabha! the other young monks all wore faces of despair.
Guo Jianglong looked extremely displeased.
Why are you all crying and wailing? Do you not trust me?
Isnt it just a small pit?
Could it really trap me, Guo Jianglong?
Guo Jianglong immediately patted his chest and loudly declared, Rest assured, my movement skills are exceptional, I will definitely rescue you from this predicament!
Saying this, he slightly bent down, Master Sanchi, I will carry you up first!
Master Sanchi glanced at the hole in the sky, memories of an unbearable past flashing through his mind, leaving him with lingering fear. He immediately shook his head, Donor Guo Jianglong, the poor monk is not feeling well, please find someone else!
Alright! What about you, little monk?
The young monk quickly shook his head as well, Donor, please find someone else, this humble monk is somewhat afraid of heights!
Fine, Ill find someone else!
After asking around, not a single person dared to go up.
Guo Jianglong became furious: I came here with good intentions to save you all, and not one of you dares to go up? I have nothing more to say. Heavenly Dog, you go first! If you refuse, just see how Ill deal with you!
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the Heavenly Dog Divine Detective hesitated for a moment but did not refuse.
After all, he was a powerful Innate and a world-renowned divine detective.
If he didnt dare to even try this, he would become the laughingstock of others.
Alright, Ill go first, but you must be very careful!
Come on, stop dawdling!
Guo Jianglong hoisted the injured Heavenly Dog onto his back, then let out a howl and immediately rushed towards the cave entrance, the whole process as if he were ascending a ladder to the heavens.
The monks below were filled with admiration.
Benefactor Guo Jianglongs movement skill is truly remarkable!
Yes, indeed, to carry a person on his back and still move as if on level ground is admirable!
This time, I feel it might actually be successful!
But no sooner had these words been spoken, both Guo Jianglong and Tiangou fell down, emitting screams of agony.
Ouch!
Ouch!
Then, the boulder crashed down at them.
They screamed in agony again, Ouch!
The monks:
Looking at the two people covered in blood, the monks trembled with fear.
The old monks cloudy eyes seemed to see through fate. He brought his hands together in prayer and said, One cannot defy the will of heaven. Let us accept our fate, Amitabha!
Two days later, Song Yufei brought Lin Beifan some bad news.
The divine detective Guo Jianglong has also mysteriously disappeared!
Guo Jianglong has disappeared as well? This is already the second divine detective to vanish; this matter is no small affair
Lin Beifans expression grew solemn. What do you think?
They may have encountered some misfortune!
Song Yufeis expression was equally grave. The Buddhist sect suspects that it is the work of the Demon Sect. Only they have the capability and the audacity to commit such an outrageous act to them!
Lin Beifan nodded in firm agreement. Thats right, I think so too!
While wandering somewhere unknown, Yaoyao suddenly sneezed.
Song Yufei continued, Therefore, the Buddhist sect plans to call upon more extraordinary individuals and experts to investigate their whereabouts!
Lin Beifan raised a glass of wine and toasted, Heres to wishing them success and an early reunion!
Under Lin Beifans well-wishes, many experts set out, and they did not disappoint, each finding the pit in turn.
Then, without exception, they all fell into it and couldnt get out.
As a result, the number of people under the pit grew larger and larger, enough to make up more than a dozen tables for playing mahjong.
They looked up at the pit above their heads, feeling very frustrated.
This hole is really cursed; you can go down, but you cant go up!
Every time you try to climb out, theres some force that stops you!
Ive traveled far and wide and seen many strange things, but Ive never come across anything as weird as this!
I hope the people of the Buddhist sect can follow the clues Ive left and find this place!
Dont count on others anymore; if they come, theyll meet the same fate! We should think of a way to escape on our own!
Youre right!
