Using the MC system to pretend spiritual revival

Chapter 17: A Big Pit Discovered! Let’s Get Started!
Lu Gu was a little surprised that someone was actually willing to give him a ride in the middle of the night.

Then his eyes turned, and a series of hidden particle changes occurred on his body. His originally dry clothes became wet and stuck tightly to his body.

He looked like he was sweating from running, but all these changes were unnoticeable under the cover of night.

After completing these preparations, he put on a tired and grateful smile, said thank you quickly, opened the back door and got into the car.

Just kidding, if I really let them go, I would have to run all the way to the city.

Although I'm not tired, I'll be bored to death!
Get on the bus immediately!

"Haha~ Handsome guy, thank you! If it weren't for you, I don't know how to get home."

Lu Gu was very happy that he didn't have to go all the way to the city, and he started talking enthusiastically to the young man driving the car.

However, the young man seemed a little shy, and looked embarrassed when he heard others calling him a handsome guy.

"Brother, please don't call me that. It's embarrassing. My name is Yang Ping. Just call me Xiao Yang."

Lu Gu readily complied with the young man's request and changed his words directly.

"Okay, Xiao Yang, I'll call you that. My former colleagues all called me Brother Bear. If you don't mind, you can call me that too, haha~"

After hearing this, Yang Ping also smiled, reached out from the car's storage slot, took out a pack of cigarettes and handed it behind him.

"Come on, Brother Xiong, have a smoke. Don't be disgusted if it's not a good cigarette. Just make do with it."

Lu Gu didn't take it, but just pushed it back while explaining.

"As for me, I've quit smoking for more than ten years now. I haven't smoked for a long time."

Seeing that the cigarette was pushed back, he did not force it and put it back casually.

"Actually, I don't smoke, but in society, if I don't smoke, it's inevitable that others won't smoke, so I always keep two packs in the car."

After he finished speaking, he seemed to feel that what he said was a bit awkward, so he changed the subject and asked a question.

"Speaking of which, Brother Xiong, judging from your outfit, are you running at night? Why are you running to the outskirts of the city?"

His question made Lu Gu feel a little embarrassed, but he had no choice but to continue making up the story.

"Yeah, yeah, but that's not the case. We ran too far. By the time we wanted to run back, it was dark and we didn't have the energy to keep up."

And when I heard him admit that he was really running at night.

Yang Ping, who was driving, was surprised. He didn't expect that this old man, whose hair was almost half white, actually ran all the way to the suburbs.

Then he gave Lu Gu a thumbs up.

"I didn't expect you to actually run at night, Brother Xiong. You're almost like a professional, right? You're amazing! You've got a better physique than most of these young guys!"

His words were full of admiration and respect, and he seemed to be very interested in running.

"To be honest, when I was in school, my favorite thing was long-distance running. Even though I'm not in great shape now, I was still among the top three in the school back then."

As he spoke, he raised his arms and flexed his muscles.

But the next moment, seeing his arm showing no movement at all, he gave up.

He smiled awkwardly, put down his hand silently, turned around and concentrated on driving.

Lu Gu, who had been acting as a spectator in the back, also laughed a little at this time.

I didn’t expect that the kind young man I happened to meet on the road would be such an interesting person.

I also felt like continuing the conversation.

Anyway, there is still a long time on the road, and I have nothing to do, so I just continued asking.

"Xiao Yang, it seems you also like sports. So how did it go? Did you get into the physical education department?"

Yang Ping did not speak immediately, appearing somewhat melancholy and unwilling.

"I originally wanted to apply for physical education, but my family strongly opposed it and forced me to choose the archaeology department because my parents are both majoring in that."

When he said this, the resentment in his tone became even stronger.

"Now look what's happening. You're traveling around the country day and night, and now you've called me over from the next city in the middle of the night, saying you want to hold a discussion meeting."

As if something sad happened, he became more and more excited as he spoke.

"It's been two years, and I haven't even seen a new grave, let alone visited it! There are more graduates than bricks in the tombs now, and it's not even my turn to watch."

At the end, his tone softened, as if he had lost all his energy.

"Look, I'm now a professional driver and handyman."

Looking at the complaining Yang Ping, Lu Gu didn't say much.

She just raised her eyebrows and patted his shoulder, with an inexplicable look in her eyes.

"Don't be so discouraged. There's a lot of land under construction in Wushan City. Who knows, maybe a shocking tomb will appear there?"

At this time, Yang Ping, who was driving, did not notice the strange tone in the words of the person behind him, and just forced a smile.

"Then I'll take your blessing. However, this place isn't a historical site, so it's unlikely there's any tomb there. I hope there really is one."

He just took it as an ordinary consolation and didn't take it seriously at all.

Hearing the other party's obvious tone of disbelief, Lu Gu did not argue, but just showed a mysterious smile.

"As for me, I'm pretty knowledgeable about tombs. I reckon there must be a big tomb on Wushan Mountain!"

"Oh? Brother Xiong knows this? Is this some kind of Feng Shui secret technique?"

Listening to the old man's words in the back row, Yang Ping just thought it was a joke and didn't take it to heart at all. He just responded directly. "Haha, I understand a little bit~ I understand a little bit~"

Lu Gu didn't care about the perfunctory tone in the other party's words, he just stroked his beard with a smile.

Although the two of them were talking about completely irrelevant things.

But when you are chatting with someone, time seems to pass very quickly. By this time, the car had unknowingly entered the city.

While waiting for a traffic light, Yang Ping suddenly slapped his head.

"Look at my poor memory. Brother Xiong, where do you live? I can just take you home. It's a public vehicle, so you don't have to worry about the gas."

Seeing that his tone didn't sound fake, Lu Gu thought about it and then responded with an embarrassed look on his face.

"Then I'll trouble you, Comrade Xiao Yang. Just take me to the largest construction site."

After listening to Lu Gu's words, Yang Ping thought for a while and then spoke in surprise.

"The largest construction site? Brother Xiong, you're talking about the Lijiang Development Zone, right? There does seem to be a residential complex right next to it. What a coincidence! It's right on our way. I'll just have to brake a bit, no big deal."

At this time, the red light turned green, and he started the car again and drove into the city.

He hesitated for a moment before finally starting to speak.

"Brother Xiong, I heard that the Lijiang Development Zone is quite unsafe recently. You live so close, so you'd better not go out too often at night. It's too dangerous."

When Lu Gu in the back seat heard this, his eyes narrowed, but he remained calm.

"You're right, I should go out less."

Since it was already early in the morning, there were fewer cars on the road, so we hardly wasted any time along the way.

More than ten minutes later, the white car slowly stopped in front of a slightly old community gate.

Lu Gu immediately perked up, realizing that they had arrived.

He got out of the car quickly, closed the door, and waved goodbye to Yang Ping who was in the driver's seat.

"See you later~ Comrade Xiao Yang~"

Yang Ping, who was sitting in the car, also smiled and waved, then stepped on the accelerator and disappeared into the night.

Watch it disappear into the night.

Lu Gu put his hands behind his head and stretched lazily.

"Ah~ I'll be busy from now on!"

He casually glanced at the community, walked straight around it, and came to the wall bordering the construction site.

I looked at the height of the wall and it was about two meters, so there was no pressure at all.

Lu Gu walked straight towards the wall, stepped on a protruding stone brick, and jumped over it.

Bend your knees slightly and land steadily.

I didn't notice the street lights outside the wall just now, but as soon as I entered the construction site, I found a clear difference.

Logically speaking, the construction site should not stop working 24 hours a day even if it is not operating in two shifts.

Even when the workers are resting at night, it shouldn't be as dark as it is now.

Obviously there was a big problem at the construction site, but it was not Lu Gu's business.

He took out a lighter from his backpack and took a quick look at the situation at the construction site.

After a while of searching.

Finally, we found the biggest pit.

Although Lu Gu didn't understand civil engineering, he didn't know what this pit was used for.

But Lu Gu, who inspected the entire construction site, could confirm that it was the deepest and largest.

Moreover, just looking at the dozen or so excavators parked beside the pit, you can tell that this pit must be very important.

And according to Lu Gu's idea.

"If it's so important, it must be suitable for causing trouble!"

Without hesitation, he leaped to the bottom of the pit, stomped his feet, and found that it was all rocks.

This saves a lot of trouble for subsequent construction, as there is no need to consider the problem of collapse of surrounding non-mc blocks.

Thinking about it, I no longer hesitated.

Lu Gu stood in the center of the pit, holding a torch in one hand and an iron pickaxe in the other.

He raised the manuscript and slammed it hard on the ground beneath his feet, and the manuscript danced rapidly.

A series of "dong~dong~" sounds echoed in the silent construction site.

In less than a few seconds, Lu Gu's figure had sunk deep into the ground and disappeared.

With a "pop" sound, a stone sealed the gap, and the entire bottom of the pit returned to darkness.

But if you listen carefully, you can still hear various sounds coming faintly from underground.

It was as if something was gradually awakening underground.
