1698 Chapter 1698: food is the most important thing to the people
Jin Zhi wanted to strangle Yun Chujiu to death. She gnashed her teeth and said, “Cut the crap. What should we do next? There is obviously a barrier here. Should we wait for the Saintess and the rest to come here or think of a way to get out?”
Yun Chujiu thought that Jin Zhi was quite funny. She was so angry that her hair stood on end. She was like a kitten! She said with a smile, “Since we’re already here, we naturally have to go in and take a look. Maybe we can find a way out from inside!”
Jin Zhi had no idea what to do now, so she could only follow Yun chujiu into the palace.
As soon as they entered the palace, they saw a sacrificial table opposite them. There was a wooden plaque on it that said, “Place of worship for the spirit of the Netherworld.”What was placed on the sacrificial table were not pastries or spiritual fruits, instead, there were many supreme-grade spiritual stones..
Yun chujiu burst into laughter. “Oh my God, it turns out that this spirit of the Netherworld is also greedy. This is the first time I’ve seen a supreme-grade spiritual stone being used to worship it!”
It was obviously the first time Jin Zhi had seen it as well. She tugged at Yun Chujiu’s sleeve. “Don’t spout nonsense! Be careful not to anger the spirit of the Netherworld.”
Yun chujiu curled her lips and said, “Don’t worry! This spirit of the Netherworld is either blind or deaf. Otherwise, why would it let us be framed and not take action?”
Jin Zhi was scared silly by Yun Chujiu. A thought rose in her mind. If she had known that this fellow was so bold and reckless, she would have waited for the SAINTESS at the same spot! But now, not only did she have to make a promise, she might even be punished by the spirit of the Netherworld. What a huge loss!
Jin Zhi was on high alert. She was afraid that she would be suddenly punished, but there was nothing wrong with that. Was it really as Lin Chuchu said, that the spirit of the Netherworld did not pay attention to this place?
While Jin Zhi was in a daze, she saw Yun Chujiu shamelessly put the top-grade spirit stones on the offering table into her storage ring. Then, she took out a large basin of steamed buns and placed them on the offering table.
“I don’t know who put these spirit stones on you. Isn’t this bullying you? The people regard food as their heaven. Your spirit should also regard food as its heaven. I’ll give these steamed buns to you. Don’t thank me too much!”
The corner of Jin Zhi’s eyes twitched violently. You’re really shameless! Those supreme-grade spirit stones can buy countless steamed buns, okay?
Yun chujiu picked up the sign again and looked around. She didn’t find anything strange, so she turned her gaze to the altar.
“Come! Help me move this table away. There might be an exit down here,”Yun Chujiu said to Jin Zhi.
Although Jin Zhi felt that this matter was not reliable, she had already boarded the pirate ship, so she could only follow Yun chujiu and lift up the altar table.
“I told you that you were talking nonsense. There’s nothing here…”Jin Zhi’s words stopped abruptly because she saw Yun chujiu knock on it and use a dagger to lift up the bluestone below, there was actually a dark hole below.
Yun chujiu took out a luminous pearl and shone it down. There were several steps below. She blinked her eyes and said to Jin zhi, “There’s either a secret passage or a hidden treasure. Let’s go down and take a look.”
Jin Zhi had no choice but to walk down the steps. Yun chujiu blinked her eyes and put the pot of steamed buns on the offering table into her storage ring. Then, she took out a few top-grade spirit stones and threw them on the offering table.
Yun Chujiu spent a lot of effort to put the offering table back into the distance, and then she fixed the green stone slab before walking down the stairs as well.
Yun chujiu could not help but be disappointed when she saw the situation below. There was only an empty stone room below. It was not filled with treasures as she had imagined, and there was no secret passage.
