Insanely Pampered Wife: Divine Doctor Fifth Young Miss Novel - Chapter 2250
Chapter 2250 Not Rushing
Wu Xiao Dao and Wu Qi Yao were dragged by the old man through all the hardships, all for the sake of searching for the mausoleum. The trio had no choice but to choose to go by foot.
The old man spoke very little. He saw that Wu Xiao Dao was curious about everything, and that she was bouncing around, but he didn’t say anything about it. It was just that his malicious gaze did not really leave Wu Qi Yao’s body.
It was clear to see that he was very anxious, but he did not rush him either.
Wu Qi Yao was currently deep in thought about the overhanging cliff in front of him.
The cliff that was so tall that it reached into the clouds, was as if it had been separated by a blade. Below that cliff was even a small pool of water.
As such, he merely stood there with his head raised up as he examined that cliff. He maintained this posture for a long time.
Wu Xiao Dao got bored while waiting, so she bluntly took out a fishing rod to fish in the pool of water. She even put some fish bait on it. She merely wanted to pass the time, but she didn’t expect that she would actually be able to catch quite a few fishes.
When she saw the lively hopping fish, she became peckish again. A pot of fish soup, a few roasted fishes andthe remaining were stir-fried. Each different dish was placed on the table. With how leisurely she looked, it didn’t look like she was being controlled. It looked like she was playing around.
“You’ve already been staring at that cliff for half a day. Have you managed to figure out anything?” The way that the old man looked at Wu Qi Yao didn’t change in the beginning, but he was finally unable to stand it.
Wu Qi Yao turned around and looked at him, saying, “The entrance of the mausoleum should be here.”
“Here? Are you sure? If you dare to mess with me, I will immediately kill the both of you!” The old man stared at the mountain for a moment, but he could not tell that there was anything special about it. Could it be that he said that this was the place because it looked man-made?
He was under his suspicious gaze but Wu Qi Yao was not flustered at all. He pointed at the water below and said, “the entrance is below the pond. If you don’t believe me, you can go down and take a look.”
“You were only staring at the mountain before, but you’re telling me now that the mausoleum is in the water?” It was obvious that the old man didn’t believe what she was saying.
“By my deduction, it is below. I can’t do anything if you don’t want to believe me.” Wu Qi Yao said lightly.
The old man stared at the water for a moment. It was clear that he felt that Wu Qi Yao was messing around too much, but he also felt for a moment that his words were a little possible.
Wu Xiao Dao finished cooking her fish and waved at Wu Qi Yao. Then, she said to the old man, “Old… Grandpa. You’re so powerful, so why don’t you go down and take a look? You’ll know for sure whether or not Xiao Yao Yao is telling you the truth. Xiao Yao Yao and I will wait for you here while eating the fish. Don’t think of taking us down with you. You know me. You might not be able to find the entrance if you bring me with you. You’re so powerful that we won’t be able to run away.”
The old man still hesitated. He had already sensed Wu Xiao Dao’s star-crossed destiny. If he brought her down with him, he might really end up in more trouble. However, if he didn’t take her with him, the other brat wouldn’t come with him either.
As such, he wouldn’t be able to know whether or not this place really was the entrance to the mausoleum.
He thought about it over and over again, then he casually set up a barrier and surrounded them along with the table.
“If I can emerge safely, you will naturally be able to leave this place.” He said as he hopped down.
Wu Xiao Dao happened to finish eating a piece of roasted fish and drank a bowl of fish soup. She placed the rest of the roasted fishes into Wu Qi Yao’s bowl and even portioned out some soup for him, “Drink up, you’ve lost weight the past few days. If mother saw you, she would say that I didn’t take good care of you.”
Wu Qi Yao mumbled in reply as he began to eat the fish.
“Slow down. It’s not like he’ll be able to come back up so quickly. We’ll leave after we finish eating.” Wu Xiao Dao would occasionally take care of him like a younger brother. She placed a hand on the table and stared at Wu Qi Yao, asking, “What’s down there? It can actually stall him for such a long time?”
Xiao Yao Yao was willing to sit down and eat, which proved that they had an abundance of time.
“I don’t know what it is, but the waves of spirit energy coming from below are real.” Wu Qi Yao continued eating after he spoke. Wu Xiao Dao knew that Wu Qi Yao had very acute senses, so she did not care what was down below. No matter what, it wouldn’t be a small fry.
“Xiao Yao Yao, where are we going next?”
“Since he’s the one who spread word about this treasure, it proves that it is fake. In that case, we can walk around the mountain to see if there is any real mausoleum.” Wu Qi Yao was not actually that interested in the mausoleum, but his sister loved it, so as the younger brother, he could only lead the way.
“Then we can go take a look once we’re done eating.” Wu Xiao Dao beamed as she said, “We don’t know what Mother is doing now, anyway, and whether or not she’s thought of us.”
Wu Qi Yao lowered his head to drink the fish soup. Concealing the shine in his eyes.
Without even waiting for Wu Qi Yao to finish his meal, a group of people walked over. They saw two children eating by the water and were very surprised.
“Little girl, why do you have to set up a barrier while eating here?” A woman asked, puzzled.
“Someone locked us in here.” Wu Xiao Dao beamed in reply, “Big Sister, are you guys able to rescue us?”
The expressions of Kai Liao and her group changed when they heard what she said. The woman still smiled as before as she said, “Who’s locked you in here? Where is that person now?”
“He went into the water. He locked us in here before he went down.” Wu Xiao Dao looked at them pitifully.
The moment they heard that someone had gone into the water, their expressions turned even uglier. For a moment, the dozen of them no longer cared about the duo as they immediately disappeared under the water.
“Has my charm fallen so low?” Wu Xiao Dao touched her face, “Am I still as charming as before, where flowers bloom in my presence and people fall for me at first sight?”
Wu Qi Yao did not reply to her because someone else had run over at this time. Those people glanced at the duo but hopped down without a single word. As they hopped down, they even said, “That’s right, this is definitely the place. It’s a good thing that we were close by.”
“Xiao Yao Yao, you couldn’t have succeeded by luck and really found the entrance to the mausoleum, right?” Wu Xiao Dao said with surprise.
Wu Qi Yao pursed his lips. He really merely just felt a wave of spirit energy below…
“Xiao Yao Yao, let’s go down and take a look as well once we’re done eating.” Wu Xiao Dao was incredibly curious, but she still didn’t want to interrupt his meal.
“We don’t know what the situation is like below and we’re in no rush to head down.” Wu Xiao Dao did not rush him to finish his meal, which made him rather happy. Although this big sister of his caused him some trouble, she was always meticulous in her care for her close ones.
They continued to eat here as wave after wave of people went down. After heading down, not a single one came back to the surface.
The water in the pool slowly took on a red hue.
Every single group that came would look puzzledly at them. However, they also managed to find out from them why this place had suddenly become so lively.
The Divinator Sect Master had personally told the others that there was a large possibility that the entrance of the mausoleum was in a body of water right under the mountain. Wasn’t this precisely the place!
“Is that divinator Fu Xi’s second master? Does that mean that Fu XI and his divinator master are coming over here? Should we tell Mother that her friends are coming over here?” Wu Xiao Dao asked.
