Chapter 1342 A Person May Possess Puppet Skill!

Because Im still young, I still have a lot of things to achieve.

Fang Qiu looked gratefully at Jiang Miaoyus mother and said modestly.

Lets start eating. Go ahead.

Jiang Miaoyus father picked up his chopsticks and began to eat after saying that.

They chatted as they ate.

They talked about study, work, school, and the various things Fang Qiu had done.

During this meal

Fang Qiu felt rather awkward.

He was wary of Jiang Miaoyus father all the time.

Mr. Jiang regarded Fang Qi merely as Jiang Miaoyus cla.s.smate and there was nothing Fang Qiu could do about it.

Obviously

Although Mr. Jiang did not say it aloud, his att.i.tude showed he did not acknowledge Fang Qiu as Jiang Miaoyus boyfriend.

Fang Qiu was well aware of that.

How could it be that easy to win her parents approval and recognition? But there was still plenty of time. Fang Qiu could only take one step at a time. Anyway, how could he achieve success in a single attempt?

Unlike Mr. Jiang, Jiang Miaoyus mother was very hospitable to Fang Qiu and kept filling his plate with food.

The atmosphere was awkward.

It made Fang Qiu very uncomfortable.

After the meal, Fang Qiu could not relax but Mr. Jiang was still eating and chatting. Fang Qiu could only continue to chat with him.

It took them an hour to finish the meal.

Sir, Madam, since Miaoyu has returned to you safely, I must leave now. I have to go back and deal with some things.

When they left the hotel, Fang Qiu politely said goodbye to Jiang Miaoyus parents.

Why do you address us like strangers? You are about the same age as Miaoyu. Actually, weve known you are a few months older than her. After the meal, you should call us Mr. and Mrs. Jiang now.

Jiang Miaoyus mother said.

As soon as Fang Qiu heard that

Mr. and Mrs. Jiang

He was quick to correct himself.

Before this

Fang Qiu had come to meet them as Jiang Miaoyus boyfriend, so he blurted out Sir and Madam to show his respect. Now, when he reflected on it, he realized he had been overly nervous. In fact, he should have addressed them as Mr. and Mrs. Jiang from the beginning.

When Jiang Miaoyu saw Fang Qius embarra.s.sed look.

She couldnt help but laugh.

Fang Qius face turned gloomy.

Ill accompany you to the high-speed railway station.

After a while, Jiang Miaoyu said.

No need for that.

Fang Qiu shook his head and smiled. Ill go back by train. I have to visit a few places along the way.

Um, okay.

Jiang Miaoyu nodded.

She and her parents knew Fang Qius Foundation had 60,000 countryside clinics. There were some in the countryside near Jinling City. Thus, they did not ask too much about it.

Then Ill get you a chauffeur-driven car.

Jiang Miaoyu took out her phone, clicked on it quickly, and booked a car.

They stood in front of the hotel and chatted for three minutes.

Then, the chauffeur-driven car Jiang Miaoyu booked arrived.

Fang Qiu felt a sense of relief when the car arrived. He hurriedly got into the car and left.

Jiang Miaoyu and her parents watched Fang Qius car leave.

Then, the family of three got into their car. Mr. Jiang was ready to drive them back.

What a nice young man.

Mrs. Jiang, beaming with joy, looked at Jiang Miaoyu and patted her husband on the shoulder, and asked, Am I right?

Only then did Mr. Jiang give a nod of approval.

Over here

Fang Qiu quickly booked a train ticket when he was in the car and got on it directly.

Fang Qiu chose to take the normal-speed train because he could jump off it. He couldnt do the same thing on a high-speed train. There was a high-speed railway station near the place where he had felt the fluctuation of the Qi of Heaven and Earth. But after he checked the schedule carefully, Fang Qiu found the normal-speed train set off an hour earlier than the high-speed train. If he waited at the high-speed railway station for an hour, the normal-speed train would have left long ago!

Therefore

Fang Qiu decided to take the normal-speed train.

Of course, the normal-speed train didnt take the same route as the high-speed train. Fang Qiu had checked the map on his phone. The normal-speed train would also pa.s.s by the place where the abnormal fluctuation of the Qi of Heaven and Earth occurred. Therefore, it was best to take the normal-speed train there.

...

The normal-speed train was actually not that slow.

There were high-speed trains now, but these normal-speed trains had improved gradually. Though the latter were not as fast as the high-speed trains, the speed gap between the two kinds of trains was not big.

The train arrived half an hour earlier than Fang Qiu had expected. Fang Qiu reached the place where he had felt the abnormal fluctuation of the Qi of Heaven and Earth.

When he reached the site

Wearing a mask, Fang Qiu walked to the joint between two carriages, made a flying leap into the air, and jumped down to the area where the fluctuation of the Qi of Heaven and Earth took place.

His speed was incredible. Besides, he jumped when the train was moving. Thus, no one on the train noticed what Fang Qiu did.

Fang Qiu crossed a hill and came to a dense forest. Then he stopped and moved forward quickly.

According to what he had sensed before

The unusual fluctuation of the Qi of Heaven and Earth was deep in the mountains ahead.

He turned his head to look back.

There were no train tracks in sight.

...

Its another three kilometers from here.

After calculating the distance in his heart, Fang Qiu got ready and darted toward the thickly forested mountains ahead.

He crossed two mountains.

When he was about to approach the target location, Fang Qiu abruptly stopped.

Clatter! Clatter! Clatter!

Footsteps came from the front.

Fang Qiu raised his head and looked over.

And there he saw

A group of people who looked like college students appeared ahead.

How many kilometers have we been walking in these mountains? But I saw nothing strange along the way. How can we find any artefacts in these deep mountains and forests?

Thats right. We major in archaeology, not wilderness survival. Have you led us in the wrong direction?

Voices came from a distance.

Fang Qiu heard that.

An archaeological team?

How could they have gone so deep into the mountains?

Could it be that they had discovered something?

He was puzzled.

Fang Qiu saw a young man walk out of the crowd. He was in good shape and clad in sportswear. He did some calculations with his fingers and said, The site has a high geomantic quality. There must be a big tomb!

Youve said it all along the way!

Yeah. Weve walked a long way with you. Where is the great tomb exactly?

You bragged that you have the compa.s.s skill for locating and way-finding, ways to discover the gravesite through geomancy, and the Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art. But it seems to me youve tricked all of us!

Everyone was complaining.

Dont worry. Well get there once we walk a little distance ahead.

The young man said with a smile.

While they chatted

The group walked to the spring-fed stream at the bottom of a steep cliff, intending to go further in by following its course.

And over there

When he heard what he said, Fang Qiu couldnt help but take a few more glances at the young man.

Then, he was about to leave.

But just before he turned around

In a twinkling

Buzz

A low m.u.f.fled sound was suddenly heard.

Fang Qiu hurriedly looked up.

Right there

A boulder sat at the top of the sheer cliff. Suddenly, it broke apart from the cliff and rolled rapidly toward the people below.

Fang Qius eyebrows shot up when he saw the danger.

The group of college students also noticed the danger. The young man who led the way and who knew how to calculate with his fingers swiftly turned around. He stretched out his hands and forcefully pushed the two female students behind him away.

The others hurriedly retreated as well.

However, after the young man pushed them away, he had no time to dodge.

The boulder gathered speed and rolled rapidly toward the young mans head.

The next moment

Ah!!!

Screams of terror burst forth from the group.

No one dared to look at the young man, but even if they didnt look at him, they could still imagine the b.l.o.o.d.y scene that was about to happen. Such a heavy boulder falling from a high cliff could crush people to a pulp. Not to mention looking at it, they were too terrified to think about it!

Over at the side

Woosh.

Fang Qiu looked at the young man approvingly. Then he moved sideways and rushed up in an instant.

Under the cliff

Everyone was waiting for the sound of the boulder when it hit the ground.

But after their screams echoed for some time, none of them heard any further sounds of the impact when the huge rock crashed onto the ground.

The young man was the one who was the most terrified: he ducked his head and arched his back with his eyes tightly closed. Subconsciously, he tried to fend off the blow with his back in response to this threat.

He was already prepared to be smashed into the ground.

However, after he waited in terror for a long time with his eyes tightly closed, nothing crashed onto his back. Finally, he noticed this and ran wildly forward, still with his eyes closed. After he took a few steps ahead, he abruptly looked back.

Meanwhile

The others opened their eyes one after another.

Before them

They saw a young man emerging out of the blue. He stood at the cliff bottom, stretched a hand, and held up the falling boulder

This scene left everyone dumbfounded!

Everyone stared at Fang Qiu in great shock.

Who is this person?

How did he manage to stop such a huge stone?

How could he possibly bear its weight?

Shouldnt he have been smashed to death when the stone fell on him?

Could it be a ghost?

All kinds of absurd ideas flashed through this group of peoples minds as they stood there in shock. They even looked toward the ground under Fang Qius feet.

There, they saw a shadow under Fang Qius feet.

Not a ghost!

The young man exclaimed and hurriedly asked, Who are you? Why are you here? How could you stop this stone?

In a moment

The young man asked all the questions in everyones mind.

When Fang Qiu heard all these questions

He flung the big stone onto the open ground nearby with a casual wave of his right hand. The moment the big stone hit the ground, the impact created a huge crater.

When Fang Qiu threw away the stone

He turned his head and said something obscure to the group of people.

In the Zangjiang ruin, he found a book about Puppet Skills. Now, he talked about the several ancient measurement terms recorded in it.

He had overheard that the young man knew about the Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art.

That was ancient mathematics.

As soon as he said that

The others were all confused.

But the young man understood and immediately said, You mean ancient measurement units?

When Fang Qiu heard this

His eyes lit up.

He didnt expect this young man to know about these.

He just wanted to give it a try. After all, only people who majored in archaeology could understand these measure units from ancient times.

You shouldnt have come here. This place is too dangerous. Hurry up and go back.

Fang Qiu said and turned to leave.

He wore a mask.

Thus, this group of people could not see his face from beginning to end.

Fang Qiu left.

They quickly gathered together. The two girls kept thanking the young man. They were both glad that nothing had happened. If the boulder had fallen on him, they could not imagine how severe the consequences would have been and could not have borne it.

They were terrified.

No one dared to stay any longer. They quickly turned around and left.

In the forest

Fang Qiu, who had not gone far, stared fixedly at the young man.

This was the first person he had met who knew about these measurement units. Perhaps this young man was the one who mastered the Puppet Skill and could create puppets.

However, it was not the time yetReadNovelFull.com
