Strange Cards

Chapter 151 Preparations Before Entering the Tomb

Shi Yu, carrying Bai Yu on his back, quickly found Liu An and the others. The group couldn't help but laugh when they saw the sandcastle.

Qi Nannan and Liu Yu wore one-piece swimsuits like Bai Yu, while Liu An simply chose a normal two-piece swimsuit and then draped a light gauze over it.

"Did you all have fun?"

Liu An picked up the water beside him, took a sip, and then smiled.

"Fortunately, the kids had a lot of fun."

"We've collected a whole bunch of seashells and conches, and now we're starting to build sandcastles."

"I'm going to go for a swim."

As Shi Yu spoke, she took off her shirt, revealing her muscular upper body.

Qi Nannan and Liu Yu finished building their sandcastles and clapped their hands with laughter. Liu Yu looked at Shi Yu splashing in the water and shook Liu An's arm.

"Mommy, can we go swimming with Brother Shiyu?"

"Sure, but you'll need to bring this with you."

As Liu An spoke, she took an electric air pump, inflated four life rings, put them on the arms of the two little ones, and then let them go into the water to play.

Looking at Bai Yu frantically testing the water at the edge of the sea, Liu An took out an inflatable rubber boat.

"Aunt Liu knows you're afraid of water, so come and play in this."

Bai Yu nodded, then stepped into the small boat, took out the oar, and slowly glided across.

After watching for a while, Liu An took off her light veil and went into the water to play. Just as the group was having fun in the water, a familiar voice came from afar.

"Sister Liu An!"

"I'm here!"

The newcomer was Yu Yan, who was wearing a swimsuit. After taking a running start on the shore, she jumped into the water with all her might.

Shiyu had just come out of the water to get some air when she saw a huge black rat fall from the sky. Startled, Shiyu immediately used her substitute puppet to transfer herself to Baiyu's small boat.

Yu Yan crashed into the water, creating a large splash. Shi Yu, standing on the side of the boat, turned to shield Bai Yu from the water and said...

"This girl must have come from a fish-frying crew in the Philippines, right?"

"My suggestion is to send them to the national diving team as soon as possible and see if they can compete with the Philippine 'fish-blasting' team."

A, not one to shy away from a good spectacle, peeked out and then went back, not forgetting to use its decomposition ability to completely dissolve all the water that had splashed into the small boat before leaving.

After a while, when no one saw Yu Yan surface, Liu An was so frightened that he almost dived down to look for her.

A short while later, a black dot surfaced from the water, spat out a mouthful of water, and then pulled all its wet hair back over its head.

"Ta-da! I've made my entrance!"

Compared to Yu Yan, who needed to slap the water's surface to float, Liu An could directly step on the sand at the bottom of the water. Liu An looked at the silly Yu Yan and gave her a flick on the forehead in annoyance.

"Don't scare me next time, or I won't let you come to the beach anymore."

"Okay, okay, I got it."

"Where's Xiao Jiu?"

Liu An pointed irritably at the two little ones drifting aimlessly on the sea.

"I knew you were here to play with Xiao Jiu as soon as you arrived."

"What are the bosses doing? Why don't you come and join us?"

Yu Yan stopped paddling after hearing Liu An's words.

"The eldest brother and Shunzi are preparing things for the tomb, while Da Niu has enchanted his double-headed drill with the sealed bear demon."

"My sister-in-law was helping the eldest brother with some things, and I came over since I had nothing else to do."

"The PhD student is still the same as always, staying in the lab all day like a homebody."

At this moment, a beam of light suddenly shot out from the glasses on Shi Yu's nose, and Guan Yun's holographic projection floated on the water's surface in annoyance.

"I knew you were talking behind my back!"

Yu Yan, caught red-handed talking behind someone's back, was grinning foolishly, trying to get away with it, when Guan Yun suddenly launched a wave that sent Yu Yan flying into the sky. Then Guan Yun's holographic projection disappeared.

Everyone burst into laughter, and Yu Yan didn't feel embarrassed at all. After surfacing, she continued playing.

........

"I said, will this work?"

"The boss who can handle anything."

As Li Shun spoke, he shook out the prepared equipment from his backpack.

"Luoyang shovel, compass, candle."

"I've brought everything: a peach wood sword, a black dog blood ink line, and a Bagua mirror."

"If there's a ghost inside, just wipe it out. It's the kind of ghost that can't even be reborn."

Qi Wu's lips twitched, and then he slapped Li Shun on the back of the head.

"What's the use of bringing all this fancy stuff? Bring something useful instead."

"When have you ever seen us use something like this to kill ghosts? If this thing were useful, what would be the point of us researching technology?"

"Take a Gatling gun down with you, and you'll know what it means for all fear to stem from insufficient firepower."

"Take that thing down there and see if you're afraid of ghosts or if ghosts are afraid of you. Let that thing sweep around for two minutes, and even a 100-pound ghost, with its excrement and urine, will be like a 99-pound bullet."

"This time, all I'm carrying is a waist bag and a backpack. Do you want to starve in the tomb on the day we go in without bringing plenty of food and supplies?"

Just then, Guan Yun, sporting dark circles under his eyes, walked in and placed a few small cubes on the table.

"The multi-tool you requested is ready. This block can transform into any tool you desire, powered by ghostly energy."

"But electricity is fine too; I've already fully charged it for you."

"That's all, I'll be going now."

Guan Yun left in a hurry, leaving only the three auspicious treasures inside, looking at each other.

"Boss, what do we do next?"

"Sometimes, if that kid Yu is capable, we don't need to prepare sleeping bags. Just bring some light fuel in your backpack to use as a campfire, and the rest of the supplies should be water and food."

"Prepare food that's filling; don't make anything fancy."

"I'll have your sister-in-law make some dough and meat pies to take with us. For the four of us, we'll need about fifty or sixty pies for three days."

"Boss, I have a problem."

Da Niu seemed to have thought of something and spoke up, Qi Wu said after putting the things away.

"put."

"If I remember correctly, my sister-in-law is from the South. It's not that I doubt anything, but does she really know how to knead dough and make pancakes?"

Qi Wu slapped Da Niu on the back of the head in an annoyed tone.

"So, do you think the pancakes that keep appearing at the base are made by me or Liu An? Of course, they're made by your sister-in-law!"

"Don't forget that your sister-in-law lived with me in the north for almost ten years before returning to the south. This little bit of cooking skill is nothing to her."

"Okay, I'll go prepare some emergency medication and other things, and then we'll go have a drink."

Qi Wu left in a hurry, as if he had made up his mind about something.
