Chapter 55: Calculations – Northern School Tomb Raider’s Notes

A four-legged snake wriggled and crawled up to my chest.

Less than twenty centimeters away, my nose could clearly smell the fishy stench of this beast.

I shook my body hard, trying to shake these four-legged snakes off. But it was no use. Instead of being shaken off, I threw the Gaw Box amulet I was wearing around my neck into my face.

The little ga’u box was metallic and this one hurt when it hit his face.

The Gaw box snapped open.

Inside the box was a ball of yellow paper, I had been carrying this with me since Yao Yumen gave it to me, and there were words vaguely revealed on it.

Gripping the corner of the paper ball in my teeth, I shook it vigorously.

Soon, the yellow paper ball was bitten open by me, and some yellowish powder oozed out from it.

Strangely enough, the yellow powder wrapped in the paper ball was colored and tasteless, but as soon as those four-legged snakes crawling on my body smelled this yellow powder, they were like long worms seeing the male yellow, and darted back.

In less than two minutes, I was clean and dry and not a single four-legged snake was left.

I looked down, there were two more small lines written on the yellow paper ball, at first I couldn’t read them, I shook them back and forth with my teeth and adjusted the angle so I could read them.

Written on the yellow paper with a red quill pen is: “Life and death have their destiny, wealth and honor are in the sky, darkly guard against villainy, openly guard against small insects, the earth’s palace of the netherworld, beware of beware of beware of beware of beware of beware of beware of beware of beware of beware of.”

Reading that set off a huge wave in my mind!

The amulet Yao Yumen gave me contained twenty-four words of approval! It’s as if this woman has known about my secret plan with Big Brother and Third Brother for a long time!

Can’t this woman tell fortunes!

Not only that.

I also noticed that nestled in the bottom of the gaou box was a very thin, thin blade, kind of like the kind of blade used for shaving, but thinner and sharper in person than that.

At the risk of cutting my mouth, I tried a dozen times in a row and finally managed to turn the gaou box upside down, and I took the thin blade directly in my teeth.

Cut it with a razor blade.

I sat up straight after the rope closest to me on my upper body, then I took the blade in my teeth and cut the rope on my feet again.

There were still many four-legged snakes crawling on the ground, my clothes were stained with the medicinal powder from the Gawu box, those four-legged snakes didn’t dare to get too close to me, the moment I moved, they all burrowed into the darkness, or some of them crawled straight back into the deep pit.

I’ve seen on TV how others have treated dislocated arms, but I’m not a doctor, and on TV everyone else clicks the bones together.

I just banged against the wall, and every bump hurt.

Maybe it was the amulet blessing, or maybe I was just a blind cat who stumbled upon a dead rat. After a few attempts, I only heard the bone click, and I was surprised that I was able to connect it on my own!

It was purely messed up montage, and I tried to pick up the left arm again, but no, it wouldn’t connect.

I looked down into the big pit, it was deep and dark, and there was a cool breeze coming from the bottom of the pit, blowing down one’s back.

Holding my injured left arm and hiding the small blade in the palm of my hand, I stood on tiptoe, trying to walk without making a sound, and carefully felt my way out.

Judging from the geographical structure of my surroundings, the place where I am now is still under the Moth Mountain, and should be in an underground cavern somewhere.

Staying close to the wall and keeping myself hidden in the darkness, I followed the path for a few minutes when I suddenly saw a fire coming from up ahead, and it seemed like I could hear people talking.

I crept closer.

“Brother Chen, you said that we have done such a beautiful job this time, if that dry corpse can really revive by sucking human blood, then we will be very rich! Brother Chen, you know, I heard that the vice president of the Evergreen Society is dying, and is relying on hundreds of thousands of dollars a shot of nutrient needles to hang on to his life, let’s give him that dry corpse, and that way, maybe Brother Chen, you can be promoted from the eight small sects to the four big sects! I’ll be able to join the Changchun Society! It’s exciting to think that I’ll be able to walk around! What kind of girls can’t you get?

!”

“You brat! Did you enter the Evergreen Club just to pick up girls? Big man! Can’t you be more ambitious!”

“Huh.”
