Chapter 34

At this same time, the chauffeur (1) climbed down as well. He was holding onto the ladder and looking fearfully at them.

Ah Tou felt that this local chauffeur really had some valuable traits. Although he was timid and wanted to leave this place, he only mentioned it twice and didnt run away or ask them any more questions. Instead, he suppressed his fear and followed after them.

Seeing him continuing to stay with them despite being in a constant state of fear was kind of cute.

The chauffeur had no interest in checking out the things they were investigating. Instead, his attention was immediately attracted by a large hole in the wall. He approached the hole and shined his flashlight inside. Ah Tou had her attention on the chauffeur as she passed Liang Yanyan the videotape. According to the usual horror movie trend, when the chauffeur looked into the hole with his flashlight, something would immediately pull him inside.

But the chauffeur spent a long time looking into the hole with nothing happening. He also didnt stick his upper body into the hole like people usually did in the movies but stayed far enough away for him to escape at any time.

Liang Yanyan examined the videotape for a while and then began looking around. Ah Tou didnt know what she was looking for, but when she asked, the only answer she got was, Bring everything out. She couldn't find what she was looking for, so she glanced at the chauffeur and quickly began to count the number of X-rays. She then approached the bookshelf full of videotapes and counted how many there were. In total, there were eighteen X-rays and six videotapes. Carry all of these things back to the car and dont come back. Wait for us in the car, she said to the chauffeur.

The chauffeur didnt answer her but kept looking into the hole. Liang Yanyan and Ah Tou exchanged a look before walking over. They saw three incense sticks burning about six or seven steps away from the entrance. "Black Glasses went in," Liang Yanyan stuffed the X-rays into the chauffeurs hand and added the six tapes on top. I know how many there are. I won't pay you if you lose a single one of them. Go now.

"If he takes care of things before I do, I wont get any money, the other woman said while lighting a cigarette. The small flame from the lighter ended up revealing a fork in the tunnel. Liang Yanyan put the cigarette down in the middle of the fork and headed towards the path where the air was flowing.

"No airflow means its a dead end. The shortest path has the greatest airflow.

"Who dug these tunnels? Ah Tou examined the walls and realized that they were all earthy and uneven. They didn't seem to be made from tools, but by animals.

Liang Yanyan didnt answer, but glanced back at her again. Ah Tou immediately understood, Do you mean Long Immortal?"

TN Notes:

(1) Ill be using chauffeur instead of driver from now on. Chauffeur better explains why hes following the girls all the way, since he has the responsibility to keep his passengers safe. The two terms are the same in Chinese. Sorry for the confusion.
