Fairy, why bother with me? I am really a yellow-haired villain.

Moreover, strictly speaking, she is not a female ghost, and cannot be simply classified as a zombie.

Zombies are dead creatures that have lost their lives, but Chen Leling, although a special spell has been cast on her body, causing her metabolism and growth to become abnormally slow, she is still a living being.

Thinking of this, Yun Zhonghe smiled lightly: "Then I will call you Le Ling, is that okay?"

When Chen Leling heard this, she howled twice, then sat down obediently on the haystack.

Yun Zhonghe then said, "In that case, let's hurry up and go back tonight. Don't worry, I'm here to protect you."

Yun Zhonghe had long wanted to leave this desolate wilderness as soon as possible.

However, just as he was about to leave, Chen Leling suddenly became excited. She shouted loudly and blocked the entrance of the cave desperately.

Yun Zhonghe frowned slightly, with a hint of confusion in his tone, and asked: "Le Ling, didn't we just agree on this?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Leling opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she couldn't utter a complete sound, as if she was denying something, her pale eyes filled with vigilance and fear.

Yun Zhonghe understood.

"Is there something dangerous outside? Are you worried that we might encounter an accident if we go out? That's why you won't let me leave this cave?"

Chen Leling's expression became more solemn. She nodded heavily, her pale eyes seeming to say, "Yes, it's very dangerous outside."

Anything that can frighten Chen Leling must be quite extraordinary.

You know, her physical strength is comparable to that of a cultivator at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.

Yun Zhonghe was silent for a moment, and he quickly analyzed in his mind: "Does that thing only appear at night?"

Chen Leling nodded again, a barely perceptible flash of fear in his eyes.

Yun Zhonghe suddenly understood. No wonder Chen Leling always urged him to return to the cave when it was getting dark.

However, Chen Leling goes out hunting every night, so why is she safe and sound?

Wouldn’t that thing attack Chen Leling?

Or... are they of the same kind?

Amidst the mystery of the incident, Yun Zhonghe seemed to have grasped some key clues.

However, since there are things out there that are more dangerous than Chen Leling, Yun Zhonghe naturally cannot take the risk.

My meridians have not yet fully recovered, and I don’t even have the ability to escape.

So, Yun Zhonghe took a deep breath and said, "I know. We won't go out tonight. Let's wait until daybreak."

Seeing that he agreed, Chen Leling cried out with joy for a long time, her happiness beyond words.

Then she lay on the haystack, staring at Yun Zhonghe motionlessly, her eyes as hot as fire.

Seeing this, Yun Zhonghe smiled helplessly and had to lie down on the haystack.

A soft and warm touch quickly came over me.

"Hmm~?"

Although Chen Leling's happy and affectionate look didn't make Yun Zhonghe become hard immediately, it still made his body stiffen.

He tried to endure it for a long time, and finally moved his restless hands away from Chen Leling's waist.

Then he turned over, closed his eyes, and calmed his inner restlessness.

Just as he was about to immerse himself in his own thoughts again, Chen Leling suddenly sat up, as if he remembered something important.

"Ooooh, ooh~"

She shook Yun Zhonghe anxiously, whispered, and pointed deep into the cave.

She gestured frantically with her hands, as if telling Yun Zhonghe something, but those abstract movements were a little hard to digest without a certain level of comprehension.

"Do you have any luggage in there? Do you need my help?"

Yun Zhonghe's thoughts are quite abstract and even so bizarre.

As a female ghost, Chen Leling has no luggage to carry with her.

The Xueyun Sword trembled slightly in its scabbard, as if it was also amused by Yun Zhonghe's fantasy.

If it really exists, it would be more like a dowry than luggage, right?

However, unexpectedly, Chen Leling actually nodded vigorously.

Upon seeing this, Xueyunjian silently typed "Niu B".

This is understandable, you two have slept together before.

But in this case, couldn't Chen Leling just go and get it herself? Could it be that there are so many things that are inconvenient to get Yun Zhonghe's storage ring?

Yun Zhonghe was even more confused, but seeing Chen Leling's eager look, he had no choice but to be dragged into the depths of the cave by her reluctantly.

Chapter 288 Rubik's Cube

To be honest, even though he had lived here for a few days, he had never thought of exploring deeper into the cave.

As they went deeper and deeper, Yun Zhonghe gradually felt something was unusual.

There is another world deeper in the cave, like a cave dwelling, with signs of being opened up by humans.

Before Yun Zhonghe had time to take a closer look, Chen Leling pulled him to a corner, as if she couldn't wait to show Yun Zhonghe her big treasure.

There is a small hole there that is big enough for a person to squeeze through, and it looks quite hidden.

Chen Leling was the first to get in, with half of her butt sticking out, completely exposing her beauty.

Yun Zhonghe turned his face away slightly, and only followed Chen Leling in after her figure completely disappeared from the cave entrance.

Sure enough, at the other end, there was a stone chamber!

The interior of the stone chamber is simply furnished. Apart from the necessary beds, tables, chairs and a few scattered futons, there are almost no unnecessary items.

His eyes fell on the stone table, where there were several empty porcelain bottles with some medicine stains remaining on the necks, obviously they had been opened not long ago.

Just when he was confused, Chen Leling suddenly pointed at her mouth, as if to say that she had eaten it all.

He asked jokingly, "Could it be that you became smarter after taking these pills?"

Chen Leling cried out in the affirmative.

Yun Zhonghe couldn't help but guess that Chen Leling escaped from the Chen family by chance, accidentally discovered this stone chamber, and swallowed a large number of elixirs, which is why she became so intelligent now?

What magic pill?!

Could it be a pill that can enhance spiritual power? That shouldn't be the case...

Pills that can enhance mental strength are extremely rare and difficult to refine.

Yun Zhonghe couldn't help but pick up an empty porcelain bottle out of curiosity and sniffed it carefully. The smell was somewhat familiar.

They all feel like elixirs that replenish yang energy.

Yun Zhonghe has been practicing the Golden Yang Art for many years and is very familiar with the scent of spiritual herbs that can replenish yang energy. After all, he has been taking this kind of elixir since he was a child to enhance his yang energy.

He carefully examined the empty porcelain bottle on the table, and became more and more certain of his judgment. These pills were undoubtedly precious things that could greatly replenish Yang energy.

Could it be that Chen Leling came back to life because of the effects of these pills?

Just as he was immersed in this series of questions and guesses, he suddenly felt a warm and firm touch from behind him.

Chen Leling quietly hugged his waist from behind, as if she had become Yun Zhonghe's pendant, clinging tightly to him, as if this was the only way to make her feel safe.

At the same time, she was holding a cube-shaped wooden box in her hand and gently handed it to Yun Zhonghe.

Yun Zhonghe initially thought that this was some kind of precious treasure box, which might contain some shocking secret treasures, but when he carefully took it and looked at it carefully, he found that something was wrong!

"Le Ling, where did you get this?"

Chen Leling still held him tightly, trying her best not to separate from Yun Zhonghe's body. She pointed under the empty bed beside her, indicating that the box was found there.

The excitement in Yun Zhonghe's heart took a long time to subside.

Because what he was holding in his hand was not an ordinary wooden box, but a wooden Rubik's Cube!

More precisely, it was a three-dimensional wooden Rubik's Cube. Although it was unpainted, each piece was meticulously carved with patterns, and if restored, it would form six complete images.

Yun Zhonghe had accidentally looked up the history of the Rubik's Cube in his previous life. The Rubik's Cube looked simple, but it was actually invented in the 1970s. He couldn't remember the exact year, but it was a modern educational toy.

In this world with a fantasy background, according to common sense, such things would not appear.

Of course, some people may say that the women here all wear stockings, so there is nothing surprising about it.

Having said that, recalling his experience in this game, apart from exceptions such as "stockings" that were specially set up to cater to the tastes of players, he really hasn't found any other props or elements that don't conform to conventional logic.

Therefore, when the wooden Rubik's Cube appeared in his hand, his intuition told him that this thing was definitely not ordinary.

So Yun Zhonghe covered the entire wooden Rubik's Cube with his mental power. He found that there seemed to be a special core hidden inside the Rubik's Cube, emitting weak spiritual power, but in a disorderly manner.

Perhaps, we need to restore this scrambled Rubik's Cube and return the core spiritual power to normal in order to get the answer to the puzzle.

However, before starting to solve the puzzle, Yun Zhonghe did not act in a hurry. He continued to search the entire stone chamber thoroughly, including under the bed, inside the futon, table drawers and every other corner. But unfortunately, apart from this Rubik's Cube, he did not find any valuable items or clues.

To be honest, it feels so shabby. There is nothing here, and the furniture is pitifully small. I don't think it is a legacy left by some great and powerful person.

Maybe, even if you spend a lot of effort to restore the Rubik's Cube, you may not get anything valuable, and you may just be wasting your time.

This thought flashed through Yun Zhonghe's mind. For some reason, he suddenly had the illusion that someone was pointing fingers at him and cursing at him behind his back.

He turned around suddenly, but saw that the stone chamber was empty and there was nothing in it.

Chen Leling looked at Yun Zhonghe with anticipation, as if urging him to act quickly.

Curious baby wants to know secrets.

Could it be that Chen Leling brought him here just to ask him to help solve the secret of this Rubik's Cube?

But Yun Zhonghe still dotes on her. Since Chen Leling wants it, then let him do it.

Indeed, although Chen Leling regained some intelligence after returning to life, it was still limited. This kind of educational toy would definitely be difficult for her to solve.

Even for a normal person, if he does not master the tricks and formulas to restore the Rubik's Cube, he may not be able to solve it easily.

To play this, you need a formula.

Fortunately, Yun Zhonghe had played with it in his previous life and remembered the formula for solving the Rubik's Cube.

So Yun Zhonghe sat on the only cushion in the stone chamber and began to try to restore the Rubik's Cube according to the formula he remembered.

Chen Leling, like a little child, stretched her neck and looked curiously at the Rubik's Cube in Yun Zhonghe's hand. Even though Yun Zhonghe had already sat down, she still insisted on kneeling and hugging Yun Zhonghe tightly from behind.

Due to the height difference between sitting and kneeling positions, Chen Leling's breasts were pressed squarely on Yun Zhonghe's head.

Yun Zhonghe: “…”

Forget it, ignore this mountain for now.

The process of restoring the Rubik's Cube went extremely smoothly and did not take Yun Zhonghe much time.

Although he occasionally made some small mistakes during the restoration process due to his vague memory, with his deep understanding of the Rubik's Cube formula and continuous deduction, he finally succeeded in restoring this wooden three-level Rubik's Cube to its original state.

Chapter 289 Astrology

The six patterns correspond to six kinds of flowers.

Orchids, roses, plum blossoms, azaleas, peach blossoms, and lotus flowers.

I don't know what the meaning is.

However, to his disappointment, after the Rubik's Cube was restored, no magical changes occurred in the stone chamber. Yun Zhonghe thought he had been cheated.

As expected, the owner of this stone chamber was very poor. He made a Rubik's Cube to trick people into solving the puzzle, but when they solved it, there was nothing inside.

Just as Yun Zhonghe was thinking this, suddenly, a faint light emanated from the cracks in the Rubik's Cube.

"Who is the peak at the end of the immortal path? The endless path is nothingness."

Suddenly, a strange voice was heard in the stone chamber.

After a line of Zen-filled poetry sounded, a wisp of smoke slowly condensed in the void of the stone chamber, gradually solidifying into a hazy shadow, appearing in front of Yun Zhonghe and Chen Leling.

The shadow was hazy and blurry, as if shrouded in a layer of mist. Even so, Yun Zhonghe could still clearly recognize the other person's appearance - it was an extraordinary woman.

She was wearing a flawless white long dress with fluttering sleeves, as if a banished immortal had descended to the mortal world. Her long blue hair was gently flying in the wind. Her face was pure and elegant, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.
