Chapter 178 - Helplessness

Thus, right now, I can only pretend to be stupid.

"Alright, alright. Let's hurry up and leave." After hearing what I said, Master laughed a few times, then ignored me and spoke to the little demon and female ghost.

After listening to Master's words, the little demon and female ghost looked at me at the same time without saying a word.

Then, I saw the little ghost slowly walk to my side. He grabbed onto me with one hand and female ghost walked towards my master with the other.

Before I could react, I felt my feet slowly leave the ground.

"AHH …" Slow down, slow down. " Unconsciously, I glanced at my feet. When I realised that I was getting further and further away from the ground, I couldn't help but shout out to the little ghost.

Only now did I realize that I was actually a little afraid of heights.

Just looking at the ground beneath my feet made me feel dizzy. If it wasn't for the little ghost pulling me, I felt that I would have definitely fallen down.

"Can you lower your voice a little? Stop shouting. If others find out, then we'll be in trouble." After hearing my shouts, the little ghost impatiently said this to me.

Shouting … The little ghost still had a temper?

Inwardly I rolled my eyes. I looked at the little ghost, but didn't say anything. I just tightly grabbed the little ghost with my hands.

After all, I am still in the air and must not offend this little brat. If he were to directly throw me down, then I would have a terrible fall.

Although falling down from such a distance wouldn't cause me to lose my life, it still hurts.

"How should we open the door up there?" I stretched out my hand and pushed at the closed door above me for a long time, but there was no sound. I couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

If we can't even open the door, then even if we're one step away from getting out, we'll still be locked inside, won't we?

"Don't worry, think of a way." While speaking to me, Master reached out his hand and gave it another push.

Seeing Master's actions, I also quickly reached out my hand, intending to help him. But even though I pushed hard for a long time, the door still didn't budge.

"What do we do now?" Looking at Master, I didn't have any ideas for a while.

I originally thought that we could get out if the little demon and the female ghost pulled us out, but now, they actually gave us such a big problem.

But I have to say, this mastermind was really careful. Not only did he get us into such a deep hole, he even made the outside of the door so precisely.

Could it be that he had guessed earlier that the two of us would run away?

"You two can put us down first." After hearing what I said, Master told the little demon and female ghost.

When my feet hit the ground again, my heart couldn't help but calm down.

As expected, the feeling of standing on the ground again was good.

"If there's no surprise, he should have locked the door from the outside. We can't open it from the inside." I raised my head and stared at the sky. After a long time, I told Master what I had guessed.

Because now. I couldn't think of any other reason besides this one.

"Do you two have the ability to break the lock?" My master didn't object to my speculations, and after looking at me once, he looked at the little ghost and the female ghost, then asked.

Listening to Master's words, I also shifted my gaze onto the little demon and female ghost.

To the ghost girl, unlocking a lock was no big deal.

With just a wave of his hand, or a single breath, wouldn't the lock open?

"The two of us will go out and take a look now." After listening to Master's words, the little ghost and the female ghost replied us at the same time and floated towards the sky.

"Master, do you think the two of them will succeed?" After hesitating for a long time, I finally asked.

Since the mastermind planned everything so well, I was worried that he might have done something about it as well.

After all, if he really did know his master, then it was impossible for the mastermind to not know of his ability. If he did know, then it would be impossible for him to not be on his guard.

Thinking about it this way, my heart felt even more uncertain.

"I don't know. It's just luck." After hearing my words, Master sighed at me. After pausing for a moment, he then spoke to me.

Towards my master's words, I was especially speechless. Now, after all this time, didn't they still leave me to the fate of the heavens?

"Forget it, forget it. We'll talk about it when the two of them return." Right now, I can only place all my hopes on the little demon and female ghost.

It's not too good to be too pessimistic, so we might as well hold on to a bit of hope. As for what really happened, when the little demon and the female ghost come back, it wouldn't be too late for us to discuss.

"How is it? How is it? Is the lock open? " After the little demon and the female ghost returned, I went up to greet them.

He was extremely anxious, and did not know if the two of them had opened the lock.

After hearing my anxious words, the little demon and the female ghost looked at me at the same time and shook their heads.

"What?" "Why?" After seeing the little ghost and the female ghost shake their heads at me, my entire being didn't look well.

When the two of them started working together, they actually couldn't even break a lock. Just how powerful was this broken lock?

Could it be? Is Master and I really trapped here now?

I had originally wanted to help female ghost steal his corpse, but now that I didn't manage to steal the chicken nor did I steal the rice, I ended up throwing myself in instead of stealing the female ghost's corpse.

He turned around and looked at his master, feeling even more sorry for him.

It's fine if I threw myself in, but now I even brought my master to suffer with me. This disciple of mine is too unfilial in front of everyone.

"Alright, alright, there's nothing to sigh about." After seeing my frown, the master patted my shoulder and comforted me.

I glanced at my master, but didn't say anything. I tried to squeeze out a smile.

Because I know that right now, it's not only me who is in a bad mood, even Master is definitely in a bad mood, so … I can't let Master worry too much about me either.
