Chapter 198 Smoke rising from ancestral graves
A bright, reflective tombstone suddenly appeared in front of everyone, and the entire tombstone was covered with sparks and lightning, with golden electric currents and flames flowing across the tombstone.
Moreover, a cloud of smoke came out of the grave. Not only that, many sleeping souls in the tomb were awakened and began to tremble at the sight of the thunder.
[Is this what they call smoke rising from the ancestral grave?]
[Hahaha, the person above, you are good at using metaphors, aren't you? Even this green smoke, our ancestors might have been passively expelled.]
[What a filial son! Is he afraid his father will come back to life, so he replaced the tombstone with steel, hoping to draw a thunderbolt to strike his father?]
[Look at the ghost nearby who had no intention of ascending, he was so scared that he kept shaking his head and shouting "Stop, Stop!"]
[Pfft—Forgive my insincere laughter.]
Seeing this, Liang Ying's face became extremely ugly.
Things turned out to be exactly as Bai Ningyu said. Does that mean that the thousand-year-old zombie will really appear in Yu Village?
At this moment, Liang Ying began to feel uneasy, but she still held on to a glimmer of hope, thinking that this time Bai Ningyu might have just happened to be lucky and guessed right.
After all, something could happen unexpectedly. Even if Bai Ningyu is very good at fortune-telling, it is impossible for her to be right every time!
Moreover, if the thousand-year-old zombie really appeared in Yu Village, someone should have notified me long ago. The fact that I didn't receive the notification means that the zombie did not appear in the place Bai Ningyu said.
Thinking of this, Liang Ying's tightly gripped heart slowly began to calm down.
Hao Qingxian tsked his lips, rubbed his chin with his right fingers, and a smile appeared in his eyes. He looked at Bai Ningyu and asked, "Director Bai, what should we do in this situation?"
After all, over the years, he had either dealt with zombies that had already transformed or corpses that had just begun to transform. This was the first time he had encountered one that was being struck by lightning, and for a moment he was really at a loss as to what to do.
Bai Ningyu thought for a moment and said, "Either we block the thunder and prevent him from transforming into a corpse, or we wait until he has transformed into a corpse and then destroy him."
Stop the thunder? Hao Qingxian raised his eyebrows and looked at Bai Ningyu, wondering if she knew what he was talking about. That was thunder from the sky, could he just stop it?
At present, it seems that only the second method is feasible.
At this moment, an old wailing sound came from the tomb, and then a figure appeared on the tombstone.
I saw an old man with a burnt face, torn clothes and his hair standing on end. It was obvious that he had been struck hard by lightning.
[Oh my god, it looks like the old man was chopped pretty hard, he's turned into charcoal.]
[Hahaha, others were invited to undergo the tribulation, but this old man was forced to do so.]
[At this point, the old man was forced to take a gamble and give it a try. If he succeeded, he would transcend the Three Realms. If he failed, he would no longer be in the Five Elements.]
He looked at Bai Ningyu, trembling all over, clearly still possessed by the residual force of the electric wave. He pleaded, "Master, I choose the first option. Please save me! I don't want to turn into a zombie."
"Okay then." Bai Ningyu said in a calm tone.
Lu Ming showed a proud expression on his face. He was worthy of being from Lingcheng. Most people would not dare to think of such words, but Director Bai said them so lightly.
After hearing this, Hao Qingxian and Liang Yong were shocked. Blocking the thunder? Are you so brave?
Liang Yingxin sneered and said disdainfully, "Bai Ningyu, who do you think you are? You're still trying to stop the thunder. You're boasting so much, aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"
Bai Ningyu glanced at Liang Ying coldly: "If I can stop this thunder, what will you do?"
Liang Ying felt a little timid under Bai Ningyu's gaze, but the next moment, she heard Bai Ningyu's question and immediately sneered: "If you can stop the thunder, I will kneel down and kowtow to you and call you ancestor!"
[Hey, who is this auntie? She's so arrogant. I guess she doesn't understand our anchor's abilities!]
[Hey, I just like watching this kind of plot, waiting to be slapped in the face.]
[Oh my god, I can't stand her arrogance. Streamer, give me a good slap in the face, and we'll give you a reward later!]
Bai Ningyu glanced at Liang Ying with a hint of disdain and said, "I don't want stupid descendants like you."
"You!" Liang Ying pointed at Bai Ningyu with anger on his face, his chest heaving violently: "Bai Ningyu, say it again if you dare!"
Bai Ningyu reached out and scratched her ear. "If I had descendants like you, they wouldn't be enough to clean up your mess. So, if I could stop the thunderbolt, you wouldn't have to kowtow to me. You can just leave your Rongwu City-exclusive helicopter behind."
Liang Ying's face flushed with anger, and he asked through gritted teeth, "What if you can't stop the thunder?"
Bai Ningyu raised an eyebrow. "I can't stop the thunder, so naturally I will be struck by the thunder and die. How about I bet my life on you, Vice Minister Liang, do you dare to accept the bet?"
"Oh, if Deputy Minister Liang feels embarrassed, then so be it. After all, you are just a deputy minister and you may not be able to make the decision on such matters." Bai Ningyu said thoughtfully.
Liang Ying laughed out loud in anger. "Okay, if you can really stop this thunderbolt, I'll leave my Rongwu City special department's plane with you! But if anything goes wrong along the way, don't even think about asking us to risk our lives to save you!"
Although Lu Ming knew Bai Ningyu's strength and understood that she was not a person who acted on impulse, since she could say it, she should be able to do it. However, he still couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Bai Ningyu curled the corners of her lips and gave a final reminder: "Deputy Director Liang, when the time comes, don't deny your debt. There are so many people watching."
Having said that, Liang Ying naturally couldn't give up: "Of course."
How powerful is the thunder from the sky? How could Bai Ningyu, a person with little cultivation, possibly stop it? It's really a fantasy.
She was just waiting to see how Bai Ningyu would be struck to death by thunder. Then, she would see how arrogant she could still be!
Obviously, in Liang Ying's eyes, Bai Ningyu's actions were seeking death.
The others were also not optimistic about Bai Ningyu, thinking that she was just bragging and would probably find some excuse to escape in the next moment.
Because in their opinion, once such a thing is done, it will be a life-or-death situation. After all, life is more important than face.
