The Lost Tomb : Restart (The Sound Of Providence)

Chapter 154: Ancient Method To Interact With Heavens

Liu Sang sat down next to me, pulled Kan Jian aside, and then said to me, "Based on my experience, the next thunderstorm should be two days from now. We're ready for it. Before it thunders, I'll pretend to surrender and hand you over to Boss Jiao. It'll start to thunder right as I cause trouble." Liu Sang pointed to his head. "You guys don't understand. Boss Jiao's people have drilled holes into their skulls. It's a way for man to interact with the heavens. When there's thunder, they'll experience a nightmare. This is an ancient method. My master also made several holes in his skull to listen to things. Since the location of the holes is different, the things heard are also different."

"So, the head became something like a musical instrument?" Kan Jian asked faintly.

"I get what you're saying, but not everyone will be stunned when it starts to thunder," I said to Liu Sang. "Those Wang family members definitely won't. I also think there are still many others who won't. Our odds of winning aren't good."

Having said that, I suddenly remembered that when I followed those people before, there was a man who acted like that leather figurine woman as he listened to the thunder. I suddenly got excited: was this one of Xiao Hua's people? Or maybe it was Xiao Hua himself and he acted like that to let me know it was him.

At that time, everyone was experiencing a thunder nightmare and he was the only one who moved like that. But why didn't he talk to me directly? Why warn me by acting like the leather figurine woman?

"You don't understand," Liu Sang said to me. "Boss Jiao is the one paying them. As long as Boss Jiao dies, they won't have a boss or anyone to pay them and their team will naturally break up." Liu Sang looked at me coldly, "It's time to resort to killing. They've already killed so many of us, after all. This man deserves to die and Little Brother doesn't have much time left. We don't have time to hesitate."

Liu Sang's method was undeniably feasible, but it was a method that left no room for escape. My success had always been based on precise calculations and the courage to execute them to the end. But this method was based on the fact that Liu Sang's ears could hear a lot of information that we couldn't. It was just like seeing things. We couldn't get this information at the same time as him, so the success he was imagining was almost impossible.

The only advantage I could use now was that Boss Jiao listened to thunder. If he could really get information from listening to thunder and fight back against Xiao Hua, then he had to be very confident about the information he heard.

But Boss Jiao didn't know that Xiao Hua was mixed in among them, so that left two possibilities:

1. It was only when a crisis reached a certain level that Boss Jiao would get the key information when listening to the thunder;

2. Xiao Hua and the other two's existence might be exposed with the next thunderstorm.

But one thing was for certain: the thunder didn't tell Boss Jiao about this hiding place, so it was still a secret.

The key was what Boss Jiao could hear in the thunder. "Since there's really no time, I'll agree to your approach if my plan doesn't work," I said to Liu Sang. "But before I do, can you tell me what happened every time there was a reversal between Master Hua and Boss Jiao?"

Liu Sang frowned, "These things have already happened. What's the point in explaining them to you?"

I looked at Kan Jian, but felt that he wouldn't be able to explain it clearly, so I said to Liu Sang, "The person you admire so much trusts me a lot. Haven't you wondered why that is? If I'm as useless as you said, could I have lived this long?"

Liu Sang looked at me with raised brows. "Are you trying to say that you want us to unite? Trust each other? Haven't you seen what happens to people who trust you? If not for you, would they have even needed to do this?"

I stared into Liu Sang's eyes. "That's my business with them. It has nothing to do with you. I see you don't want to answer any of my questions. Have you ever thought that I might find a way with what you've said? It's not like it's going to take that long for you to tell me about it. Do you want to save people, or do you just want to prove that it wasn't your fault and I'm the one to blame?"
