Chen's family was even more calculating than we had imagined.

However, they miscalculated one thing: Chen Xiaobei was an old friend of Lao Liu.

If Chen Xiaobei hadn't regained her memory at a crucial moment, she would have become a hidden mine near me, just like Chen Xiaobao.

She could have blown us to pieces at any critical moment.

Chen Xiaobei, having regained her memory, deliberately avoided us to save Lao Liu.

But she underestimated Lao Liu's persistence.

While I was still worried about Ye Yang, the van in front suddenly sped up, rushing towards the top of the mountain.

The car, heading straight along the mountain road, quickly tilted to an almost right angle on the steep road.

Just as I subconsciously wanted to draw my blade to defend myself, the car suddenly sank downwards and disappeared from my sight.

I immediately quickened my pace and rushed to the top of the mountain. When Lao Liu and I stood at the top, we both gasped.

From the top of the mountain, we could see a deep pit as high as the mountain itself.

Apart from mines, I had never seen a place where a mountain could be dug out like this.

From my position, I could clearly see a clock tower standing at the bottom of the pit. The car that had fallen from the top of the mountain was parked near the clock tower.

I transmitted my voice to Lao Liu, "Have you seen this sinkhole before?"

Lao Liu responded, "When I bought the house in Weizi Alley, there was no sinkhole here. It looks like this should be a mine. Could it be that someone accidentally opened a restriction hidden underground while mining? That boss!"

Lao Liu's deduction should be correct. Why would a wealthy boss run to Weizi Alley, which has no development value?

The boss who wanted to buy the clock tower was likely the owner of this mine. He wasn't buying the clock tower for collection, but to suppress the mine.

The information Chen Xiaobao provided to Ye Yang was not complete.

My guess was correct. Chen Xiaobao deliberately didn't mention the existence of this mine, fearing that I would get the news and rush into the mine before the Chen family was ready.

I activated the voice transmission talisman: "Ye Yang... Ye Yang..."

Before there was a response from the voice transmission talisman, I heard a man's voice from the car: "You don't need to shout. You'll be able to see each other soon. Look up at the opposite side."

When I looked up at the opposite mountain, an image like a projection had appeared. Ye Yang and Feng Ruoxing were clearly visible in the projection.

Ahead of Ye Yang was a clock tower built in the desolate mountains. A striking block was missing from the copper bell on the tower.

Yu Xuelin, whom I had met once, stood under the clock tower and bowed to Ye Yang from afar, "Leader Ye, have you been well?"

Ye Yang looked at him with a gloomy expression, ignoring his pleasantries.

Yu Xuelin said nonchalantly, "I believe Leader Ye still has some doubts about my identity. Then let me reintroduce myself. I am Chen Xuelin, a successor of the Watchman lineage. My elder brother, Chen Xuedong, should have met Leader Li."

As Chen Xuelin spoke, a person got out of the van. When his feet were about to touch the ground, they floated upwards slightly, as if repelled by the surface - he was a ghost!

That person cupped his fist at me under the clock tower. Only then did I see his appearance clearly. He and Chen Xuelin looked exactly alike. The Chen brothers were also twins.

Chen Xuedong, standing at the bottom of the pit, didn't say anything, but Chen Xuelin in the image said, "Let's put it this way! Our Chen family moved to Weizi Alley back then for this secret treasure."

"However, we are different from our ancestors. My ancestors insisted on the path of the sorcerer, wanting to suppress the ghosts and gods in the secret burial for generations. However, we feel that the descendants of the Chen family shouldn't waste their lives in a small alley."

"So, starting from my father's generation, we chose to mine."

Chen Xuelin paused here, "I believe, with the eyesight of the two leaders, you should be able to see that the layout here is *shu cheng shuang* (art achieved in pairs), right? My elder brother opened the way for Leader Li all the way, leading Leader Li to the Ghost Tomb. He has already expressed our sincerity. What do the two leaders think?"

"Not well!" Feng Ruoxing stepped forward and said, "The reason why Weizi Alley became a ghost alley is probably also due to your Chen family, right? Someone who sacrifices countless innocent people for their own self-interest, is there any sincerity to speak of?"

Chen Xuelin laughed, "Leader Feng's words don't sound like a sorcerer!"

"Sorcerers are for the public? Wrong! Sorcerers only have self-interest in their eyes, not public interest." Chen Xuelin pointed outwards lightly: "Leader Li should know the true meaning of this! Although Leader Li is a Yang Jian Jie Ming Ren, since his debut, when has he ever worked for the public?"

"Moreover, the three leaders of the Two Worlds Hall are in Weizi Alley, not for public interest, right?"

Chen Xuelin smiled slightly, "My elder brother and I have already discussed it. After this matter is over, we will send Xiaobei to Mr. Liu to fulfill their previous lives' marriage. I wonder if this condition can move you all?"

When I glanced at Lao Liu, the veins on his forehead were already bulging.
