Reborn As Super Heiress

Lu Huairu suddenly realized, he thought, with Huaxia Country’s archaeological team’s rigorous work style, plus the supervision of Zhou Shitao and Huang Zhenlong, there was no reason for such oversight to occur.

It turns out there was another layer of concealment here, no wonder no one noticed!

However, at this moment, what Lu Huairu and Fujiwara Seiho were concerned about was not the archaeological team’s matters, but the child who just rushed into the cave!

Just when the child rushed into the cave under the moonlight, the Bagua Plate in Lu Huairu’s hand pointed directly at the child’s position, finally resting at the cave’s location without moving!

And it was at that moment, both Lu Huairu and Fujiwara Seiho witnessed with their own eyes, under the dim moonlight, the child who darted out of the bushes, his lower body shining silver, was actually, unbelievably, a living fish tail!

A Jiaoren!

This discovery took the breath away from Fujiwara Seiho and Lu Huairu, both stunned on the spot.

But very quickly, they both reacted, in the darkness, they turned their heads to look at each other simultaneously, eyes filled with intense ecstasy!

No place to look for, it comes without effort!

They originally thought that to find what they were searching for, they might have to devise another plan, knowing that the ancient tomb was now fully sealed off by special police, breaking in wouldn’t be so easy.

But they never expected that there would be another cave on the back mountain of this ancient tomb, and evidently, this cave is most likely where the Jiaoren is hiding!

This discovery far exceeded the expectations of the two. They initially thought that as long as they could find the Jiaoren’s bones in the ancient tomb, they could verify their hypothesis, then figure out a way to study Ge Hong’s grave goods to find where Ge Hong captured the Jiaoren.

Unexpectedly, there was a living Jiaoren hidden in Ge Hong’s ancient tomb, saving them a lot of trouble!

”Capture it alive!” This was the thought that simultaneously echoed in Fujiwara Seiho and Lu Huairu’s minds at that moment.

As long as they captured this Little Jiaoren, their goal of refining the Elixir of Life would make the most critical progress, and the rest would be easy!

With this in mind, a burning light began to shine in Fujiwara Seiho and Lu Huairu’s eyes; without any hesitation, they stood up and rushed to the spot where the Jiaoren entered the cave.

After exchanging a glance, Lu Huairu attempted to move the stone slab. Sure enough, with just a bit of force, the stone slab seemed to be triggered by something, sinking directly, and soon revealed a dark cave.

Lu Huairu’s eyes flickered slightly as he cast a glance at the unmoving needle of the Bagua Plate in his hand; he nodded slightly at Fujiwara Seiho, and the two silently held their breath, slipping inside.

The cave was not high, but it could still accommodate a person to walk in. After walking hundreds of meters, a dim light slowly appeared ahead.

The two didn’t rush in recklessly; they lingered at the entrance cautiously probing, making sure there were no unusual sounds coming from inside the cave, not even human voices, then they cautiously entered.

A space more than a hundred square meters wide met their eyes, with water dripping here and there in the cave, and stalactites and stalagmites were everywhere; drips created pitted surfaces on the ground, gathering into a small pond in the center.

Many bushes grew by the pond, blocking their sight, but a barely visible fish tail sticking out from the pond made them instinctively understand that the Little Jiaoren who darted in earlier must be in that deep pond now.

Although unclear why the Little Jiaoren appeared here or who made this cave, Fujiwara Seiho and Lu Huairu reacted rapidly, knowing such an opportunity couldn’t be missed; they must capture this Jiaoren now, or they wouldn’t know when next they’d meet a living Jiaoren by such chance!

Thinking this, the two tacitly cooperated, gesturing with their hands and signaling with their eyes.

Soon, Fujiwara Seiho understood and they quietly retreated back into the cave.

After confirming the Jiaoren couldn’t hear, Lu Huairu whispered in a low voice, ”See what’s in your bag that we can use!”

Without hesitation, Fujiwara Seiho took off the bag and emptied its contents several times; with a glance over it, Lu Huairu’s face darkened.

They came to explore the ancient tomb, so they naturally brought archaeological tools like sampling and digging tools, none were useful here.

Not just Lu Huairu, even Fujiwara Seiho looked annoyed, regretful that he hadn’t brought a tranquilizer gun; now being barehanded, if that Little Jiaoren fought back fiercely, they might not be able to control it.

At that moment, Lu Huairu suddenly pulled something from his backpack: ”Use this!”

Fujiwara Seiho looked up and his eyes lit up immediately.

In Lu Huairu’s hands was a hammock net, intended for short mountain rests, which unexpectedly came in handy now.

With this net, the two tiptoed towards the pond, slowly approaching the Little Jiaoren whose fish tail was exposed once again.

Lu Huairu made a gesture, and the two surged out together, simultaneously casting the net over the Little Jiaoren.

With this cast, it caught firmly, capturing the Little Jiaoren struggling within, emitting furious cries, the tail caught in the net, unable to break free.

Lu Huairu and Fujiwara Seiho were overjoyed, knowing they had made a big catch; they eagerly jumped into the pond, trying to drag the captured Little Jiaoren ashore to tie it up.

Unexpectedly, just as they jumped, extending their hands to grab the Little Jiaoren, the one who was struggling bitterly suddenly looked up, giving them an odd smile.

Seeing this smile, both Fujiwara Seiho and Lu Huairu sensed something wrong, their hearts skipped a beat, feeling uneasy.

But when they tried to react and escape, how could it still be in time?
