Chapter 175 of "Corpse Recovery Diver" begins with suspenseful moments: Chapter 175: Chapter 31_6"Ah, I can’t help wanting to give you a hug as soon... Don’t miss it!

Chapter 175: Chapter 31_6"Ah, I can’t help wanting to give you a hug as soon as I see you." Li Sanjiang patted the dust off his clothes. "Xiao Yuan, how come you haven’t gone home yet?" "I came to pick you up, Grandmaster." "Oh, alright, let’s go home." ... After returning home, Li Zhiyuan went upstairs to shower first, while Run Sheng rinsed off at the well in the courtyard. Liu Yumei, who was drinking tea, slightly shook her head and sighed. After showering, Li Zhiyuan came downstairs, waiting for dinner. "Xiao Yuan, come here with Grandma for a moment." Li Zhiyuan stood up and walked over. Alii, who had already sat down waiting for the meal to start, also stood up and followed. Liu Yumei led the boy into the east room, prompting a puzzled feeling in Li Zhiyuan, as Grandma Liu didn’t lead him towards the family altar this time but into her and Alii’s bedroom. Once inside, Li Zhiyuan understood what Liu Yumei meant. Almost half of the bed was neatly occupied by bottles of Jianlibao, each placed at exactly the same distance from one another. Liu Yumei had no choice. She and Alii shared a bed, and now she would have to make her bed on the floor. "Grandma Liu, do you have an empty box?" "Yes, over here." Li Zhiyuan started to work, picking up the Jianlibao bottles from the bed and arranging them into the box. Alii stood aside, head lowered. "This box would be great for storage. Let’s figure out a way to fill it up sooner. What do you think?" Alii lifted her head, looked at Li Zhiyuan, then turned around to pick up the Jianlibao from the bed and place it into the box. Liu Yumei was used to this. Her days and nights of earnest persuasion were not as effective as a single word from the boy. "Xiao Yuan, do you want to turn back?" "No." "This path is not an easy one." "Mm, if it were easy, it wouldn’t be interesting." After dinner, Li Zhiyuan watched an episode of "Power King Leo" with Alii and then went alone to the terrace to finish his horse stance practice for the day. Returning to his desk in the bedroom, he turned on the desk lamp, took out his notebook, and flipped to the first page, which contained the plan he had drawn up for his actions today. "Sssshh..." The paper with the plan was torn off, crumpled into a ball, and tossed into a nearby dustpan. After today’s events, Li Zhiyuan realized that even the best-laid plans could be at least halfway discarded once they were put into motion. Picking up a pen, Li Zhiyuan began to record the mistakes he made today. The first entry: When encountering a special setup like cemetery soil, one should not enter too early, but must assess the situation from the periphery. The second entry: Before entering a dream to walk in the Underworld, one must anticipate the potential surprises that may arise. The third entry: Straying from the righteous path seems to make dealing with corpses easier. Turning to the next page, Li Zhiyuan recorded the testing and usage of various instruments from today. Finally, when writing about the talisman paper, Li Zhiyuan hesitated for a moment before writing: Function of talisman paper: Can be used to detect nearby filth. Turns black if any is present. Just as he put down the pen, he heard a knock on the door: "Little Yuanhou, I’m going to take a bath, wait in Grandmaster’s bedroom for me." "Oh, sure, Grandmaster." Li Zhiyuan entered Grandmaster’s bedroom and, just like his first two days here, there was a circle of candles placed on tiles and a very familiar Array depiction drawn. Searᴄh the novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. It was familiar because the Array was slightly different from the previous few times. The "Golden Sand Luo Wen Scripture" was still open and spread out on the floor. This meant that even though the Array had been drawn several times, the Grandmaster still needed to copy it afresh each time. Li Zhiyuan picked up the book, flipped to the page about the Luck Transfer Ritual, glanced at the back of the book, and then back at the Array Diagram on the floor. "Hm?" He then looked at the book again as if he had seen something wrong, then looked carefully at the Array on the floor. "This time... has Grandmaster actually drawn it correctly?" This should have been good news, but Li Zhiyuan couldn’t feel happy about it. Because when Grandmaster drew the Array incorrectly, it was controllable, but who knows what would happen after Grandmaster draws the Array correctly? The most terrifying thing is always the unknown. From Li Zhiyuan’s perspective, he knew what Grandmaster’s purpose was for transferring his luck: to rid him of those dark aspects that mundane people saw in him, allowing him to return to being an ordinary child and to lead a normal life. But this wasn’t what he wanted; he had already embarked on this path. Furthermore, even if he didn’t consider the possibility that Grandpa Bei’s tremendous fortune could overwhelm him, what would he do with Grandpa Bei’s luck? Grandpa Bei lived a carefree life full of joy, and what if something bad happened to him in his old age due to the division of his fortune? Why bother at all? Grandpa Nan and Grandpa Bei had more than one grandchild, yet Grandpa Bei only acknowledged him as his great-grandson. Others coveted this fortune, but Li Zhiyuan had no interest in it. "Grandmaster, you should just enjoy your retirement." He squatted down, picked up the cinnabar box and a cloth, wiped off a small corner at the northern part of the Array, and then reapplied the cinnabar, only that the small corner, originally facing inward, was now changed by Li Zhiyuan to face outward. Before, both the northern and southern corners were facing inward. Although he hadn’t started reading about Arrays, he had recently been imitating and carving many on utensils; he knew that such subtle changes could easily nullify the effects of an Array. Li Zhiyuan nodded to himself: This was such a large Array, changing such a small corner, Grandmaster probably wouldn’t notice. "Xiao Yuan, Xiao Yuan!" Run Sheng’s voice came from downstairs. "Coming." Li Zhiyuan went downstairs and saw Run Sheng fiddling with the television antenna nonstop. "Xiao Yuan, take a look, why is there no picture on the TV?" Li Zhiyuan looked outside at the night sky. "Seems like a thunderstorm is coming; the signal must be poor. We’re going to see Mr. Shan tomorrow morning anyway, so you better get some sleep too. If the TV is still not working tomorrow, we’ll take it for repair on the way and bring it back when we return." "Uh, Xiao Yuan, do you have money for TV repairs? I heard it’s expensive." Run Sheng wouldn’t dare tell Grandmaster if he broke the TV by watching it himself. "Don’t worry, Brother Runsheng, if all goes well, we’ll have money tomorrow." ... Li Sanjiang finished bathing, dressed in red underwear, and walked into the bedroom drying his body with a towel. "Eh, where’s Little Yuanhou?" Throwing the towel on the floor, Li Sanjiang headed to the bedside table to grab a cigarette to light up. However, just as he was about to light up, his foot stepped on the moist towel, causing him to slip and lose balance. Fortunately, despite his age, the old man was still robust and reacted quickly, quickly turning to his side and supporting himself with his left hand, bumping his knee slightly but not suffering a full fall. Somewhat relieved, he stood up and looked at his reddened knee. "Eh, is it bleeding?" He touched his knee, failed to find a wound, then looked at his hand in front of his face, it wasn’t blood, it was cinnabar. Li Sanjiang looked down at the Array on the ground, discovering that his knee had smeared off a small area of the Array at the southern position. He hurriedly dragged the cinnabar box over, preparing to refill it. "Ah, what was this part again?" He had drawn this Array Diagram multiple times, and although he always had to refer to the book, he had grasped some patterns, such as the Array Diagram being symmetrical. He looked up at the position directly opposite, at the northern position. "Oh, it’s an outward-facing corner." Li Sanjiang carefully refilled it with cinnabar, dusted off his hands, and nodded to himself with satisfaction. Next, he lit a cigarette in his mouth and then lit all the candles on the floor. Li Zhiyuan came back at this time. "Little sparrow, I told you to wait, where did you run off to?" "Hehe, I’m back now, Grandmaster." "Quick, sit in the Array." "Alright, Grandmaster." Li Zhiyuan sat down in his position, deliberately glancing at the northern part of the Array; yes, that corner was still facing out. Li Sanjiang also sat down, took a talisman paper from his pants and lit it, waving it around while chanting. Finally, he took a deep breath, gathering strength to slap the floor forcefully, because that would raise the air to blow out the surrounding candles and simultaneously cause the light bulb above to short-circuit and flash. In his heart, he counted, one, two, three! With the talisman paper in hand, he slapped down, "Snap!" Darkness, Instantly engulfing everything. ——— At the editor’s request, seeking a monthly ticket.
