Chapter 36: Chapter 36 [Ruins]

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Liu Shi Ting told them what she had seen and heard in the morning.

In the morning, the city guards said that they would increase the area of the blockade and give all the residents a sum of money so that they could stay in a hotel for a few days.

At first, no one felt that there was anything wrong. After all, they knew that there were spirit beasts. For the sake of their lives, it was understandable for them to leave temporarily.

But soon, they discovered that the blockade this time was over the top.

There were even people who had their homes torn down, forcefully erecting a thick iron wall in its place.

Many primary schools and kindergartens that were set up by the river were also forced to close for now.

“After that, my dad went to ask Uncle Zhang of the city guards. Uncle Zhang said that the building in those sealed areas might have to be torn down soon. As for the reason, Uncle Zhang doesn’t know either.”

As she spoke, Liu Shi Ting lowered her voice and said, “My dad said that there might not only be spirit beasts at the bottom of the river but also ruins. The city guards and people from the Spirit Alliance found them, so they deliberately sealed them up.”

“Ruins?”

Hearing this term, father Lu and mother Lu were very surprised.

Although there weren’t many records of the existence of ruins in books, this wasn’t unfamiliar to father Lu and mother Lu who often read the news and talked about current affairs with their colleagues.

Every time a ruin appeared, it would attract a large number of spirit cultivators.

Moreover, it would often be accompanied by a large number of bloody incidents.

To be able to make so many spirit cultivators go crazy over it, it was simply unimaginable how many treasures were inside.

Although fights between the spirit cultivators were far away from commoners like them, now that it could happen in the place where they had lived for decades, they couldn’t help but feel surprised.

Lu Li was also surprised when he heard it.

Although he had long thought that the thing at the bottom of the river was not simple, he didn’t expect it to be a ruin.

According to the books, these ruins were ancient ruins that had never appeared in the history of the Blue Planet.

It was like a civilization from another planet.

Therefore, some people speculate that the reason why Blue Planet had expanded a thousand times was actually due to a thousand planets the size of the original Blue Planet having merged into one.

Although such a guess was absurd, it was still a line of thought.

Thus, the only consensus was that there might be a lot of good treasures in the ruins.

“Yes, my dad heard it from an old man who was playing chess by the river at that time. We can’t confirm whether it’s true or not, but Uncle Zhang did tell my dad that if the house was demolished, the Spirit Alliance and the city guards would give out lots of subsidies.”

Liu Shi Ting said.

When Father Lu heard this, he nodded and said, “This matter can’t be decided too early. We’ll see how it goes in a few days. However, you can’t tell anyone about what your Uncle Zhang told you.”

Liu Shi Ting also nodded and said, “I know, Uncle Lu. My dad said that I could tell your family.”

“Okay.”

Father Lu nodded and then reminded everyone not to tell anyone about this.

It was getting late, and father Lu and mother Lu still had to go to work.

So he told the three of them not to go out if they had nothing to do in the next few days.

“Okay, then you two be careful too.”

Lu Li also reminded his parents.

Although the place where his parents worked was very far from the south of the city, if there really was a ruin at Rao Shui River, then spirit cultivators from other places might come over.

When that time comes, Rao Shui town would be bustling. No one knows whether it would be a good thing or a bad thing.

“No matter what, I have to quickly raise my strength.”

Regardless of whether it was for the college entrance exams or to deal with the danger that could happen at any time, only with strength could he protect himself and his family.

Thinking of this, Lu Li returned to his room.

He said to Lu Ling and Liu Shi Ting, “I’m going to focus on my revision. Don’t bother me even if there’s something you need.”

Lu Ling heard this and said, “Revision? I don’t believe it. You are just going to hide in your room playing games.”

“If you don’t believe it, let’s make a bet.”

“I’m not going to make a bet with you. If you pretend to study for one afternoon, I’ll lose.”

Lu Ling pursed her lips and said.

However, Lu Li smiled and replied, “I didn’t say we were betting on that. It’s two weeks away from a mock test, so I’ll bet that my total score will be above 70%. How about it?”

Hearing this, Lu Ling felt surprised.

With a look of disbelief, she challenged, “You’re bluffing. Your final score last time was around 60%, right? How can you hit 70% this time, much less above it?.”

Lu Li had guessed that she would say that, so he wasn’t angry. He just smiled and asked, “Bet?”

Lu Ling asked, “What do you want to bet?”

“I want to bet that you won’t eat snacks for a month.”

“I…”

“Don’t you dare?”

“Why wouldn’t I? What about you? What if you lose?”

Lu Li said, “If I lose, I’ll buy you snacks for a month.”

Hearing that Lu Li wanted to buy her snacks, Lu Ling immediately perked up. “Okay! It’s a deal. No, but… 70% is too low. What if you’re Lucky? 72% or more!”

Hearing that, Lu Li smiled.

She still backed down and upped the difficulty a little in the end.

Lu Li thought for a moment, then nodded and said, “Okay, 72% or more. I’m going to start my revision now. Don’t disturb me. If you disturb me, you lose.”

“I… I’m not going to! You say it like I’m going to disturb you!”

Lu Ling immediately said with an unconvincing expression.

“That’s good, bye!”

“Goodbye!!”

The two of them said loudly at each other, and Lu Li closed the door with a smile.

His goal had been achieved.

Liu Shi Ting watched the bickering of the two siblings, laughing the whole time.

She smiled, “Ling Ling, you and your brother are still the same as before.”

“It’s different now. He wasn’t this arrogant in the past. Let me tell you, ever since he checked out with a Spiritual Power Index of 198 points, he…”

Downstairs, Lu Ling continues to ridicule Lu Li towards Shi Ting.

Upstairs, Lu Li had just chosen an empty spot and placed the other half of the teleportation array here.

An array appeared on the floor of the room, looking more complicated than ever with its runes clear in view.

Touching the array formation with his hand, he could feel a faint spiritual aura within the array formation.

At the same time, Lu Li suddenly felt his Yamato sword vibrate in the alternate dimension.

“Yamato Sword?”

This was the second time the Yamato sword had suddenly vibrated.

Last time, it was because of the cloud of purple aura at the bottom of Rao Shui River. This time, it was because of this teleportation array.

This Yamato sword could easily cut through space. Could it be that the Yamato sword could sense spatial spells and react to them?

It seemed very likely.

Lu Li could not help but think, “Could the purple aura at Rao Shui River also be related to spatial spells?”

Of course, it was also possible that the purple aura at Rao Shui River was too dangerous, and the Yamato sword was just reminding him.

Lu Li stopped thinking about it before long.

He summoned the System interface.

He opened up [Shop] and found the [Consumable card: teleportation stone x10]. He needed 100 Learning Points to buy it.

This teleportation stone appeared in the System’s shop after Lu Li obtained the small teleportation array.

If he wanted to teleport between two teleportation arrays, he needed a teleportation stone to activate it.

It was not expensive. 10 Learning Points for one teleportation stone.

Lu Li bought it without thinking too much.

After using it, he got 10 transparent beads the size of soybeans.

Lu Li closed his door, windows and shut the curtains.

After making sure that Lu Ling and Liu Shi Ting were watching TV downstairs, he found an old-fashioned tape recorder, put in a tape, and played studies-related materials, deliberately turning up the volume.

After doing all this, Lu Li followed the method of how to use the teleportation array in his mind and walked to the teleportation array.

He took out a teleportation stone.

As he urged his spiritual power, the teleportation stone gave out a faint luster.

“Go!”

As the command was issued, the teleportation stone in his hand turned into white gas and quickly melted into the teleportation array on the ground.

The next second.

Lu Li, who was standing on the teleportation array, disappeared on the spot.

When he opened his eyes again.

In front of him was the landscape of a cemetery with granite gravestones….
