I Have a Date with a Thousand-year-old Female Corpse-Chapter 47 Memory Seal_1

Feeling the ground trembling under your feet, you dashed to the ancient peach tree and struggled to shove aside a huge boulder in front of you.

"Stupid kid, stop dawdling and get out of here!"

Seeing Du Xishan running over, you hurriedly shouted at him, "Lao Du, help me lift this rock and block the entrance!"

Just as Du Xishan was about to speak, a figure flashed behind him, and on a closer look, it was unexpectedly Fan Yi!

As Fan Yi also ran towards you, Du Xishan quickly joined you, and the three of you worked together to lift the boulder and desperately move it to the entrance of the tomb.

"Ao!"

In an instant, a piercing howl emerged from the tomb, and through your left eye, you distinctly saw two shadows rushing straight at you!

"Hold it up!"

With your loud yell, the three of you hurriedly blocked the entrance with the rock!

No sooner had the rock been set in place than you all distinctly felt a huge force from inside pushing the rock slightly out of place. Then, an emaciated arm with sharp claws reached through the gap and clutched your throat!

That seemingly frail hand had an unbelievably strong grip, and you found yourself unable to breathe as it clenched your throat!

At the same time, a figure with long hair, a withered complexion, and a corpse-like appearance of a human squirmed, forcing half its body out, its other hand aiming to stab straight into your eyes!

In the critical moment, the Odd Curse Mark that had appeared in your left eye back in the Underground Palace emerged once again, startling the ferocious creature upon seeing the mark. Its body froze for a moment, and both its hands lost strength.

You quickly broke free from the creature’s claws, bit hard on your tongue, and spat a mouthful of bloody saliva at the monster!

"Ao—"

As the saliva mixed with blood touched the creature, it let out an even more piercing howl and instantly recoiled back into the tomb.

"Hold it up!"

You yelled again, and the three of you pushed the stone back with all your might.

You then hurriedly pulled out eight Demon-suppressing charms from your pocket to stick on the rock, and bit your finger to draw the same Magic Seal with your blood that had appeared on your left eye.

Once the seal was finished, the winds and clouds between heaven and earth suddenly surged, and an incredibly powerful gust of air erupted from the seal, sending the three of you flying out!

You landed closely next to Fan Yi, hitting the ground first. Just as you steadied yourself, Fan Yi tumbled into your embrace, instantly filling your arms with her warm fragrance.

Having no time to relish this sudden intimacy, you quickly helped Fan Yi to stand up. The three of you saw that the boulder was fusing with the surrounding earth at a visible rate, soon leaving no crevice untouched, as moss quickly grew over it, covering the curse mark.

"This... this is too miraculous!"

Du Xishan wanted to step closer, but you pulled him back, shaking your head,"Let’s go, we can’t stay here for long."

Although curious inside, Du Xishan didn’t ask any questions, but there seemed to be a hint of amusement in his look towards you.

Turning around, you noticed the changed expressions in the people not far from you. The boys looked at you with more reverence, while three of the female staffers had shining eyes full of admiration.

Du Xishan quickly approached them and said, "Same rule as always, what happened today must not be spread."

"Don’t worry, we’re all tight-lipped."

A girl who thought she was rather attractive gave you a sweet smile. You just shrugged, unconcerned.

Du Xishan was adept at handling the aftermath, and in no time, the site was turned into a forbidden zone, with even stone collectors too scared to venture there.

As soon as you got into the car and sat down, you felt dizzy and fell asleep with your eyes closed.

After an unknown amount of time, when you groggily regained consciousness, you found yourself sprawled out; it seemed you were lying on something soft and warm, and upon closer inspection, it felt like thighs.

Thighs!?

You suddenly opened your eyes and indeed found yourself lying on a girl’s long legs. Though she wore faded jeans, your position was so close to her private area that you could even smell a subtle, musky scent.

What should you do?

From the color of the jeans, the person beside you should be Fan Yi.

You suddenly felt that you weren’t very familiar with her, huh?

If she let you lie there for so long, probably she too had fallen asleep, right?

Or was she awake?

Did she not want to disturb you because you were too exhausted?

Alright, you admit that Fan Yi is a kind-hearted and good girl.

But now, no matter how you look at it, you’ve already constituted harassment. What should you do now?

Should you continue to feign sleep?

But that doesn’t seem quite right. Forget it, although I’m not exactly a gentleman, I should still be upfront about things.

With that thought in mind, you deliberately let out a murmur like you were talking in your sleep, pretending that you just woke up, and then you sat up in surprise.

Fan Yi hadn’t fallen asleep. Seeing you get up, she smiled and asked, "Did you wake up?"

You rubbed the back of your head somewhat sheepishly, "Sorry, I fell asleep and didn’t notice."

"It’s no big deal."

Compared to Fan Yi’s easy-going attitude, you suddenly realized that you were somewhat petty.

However, precisely because of this, your opinion of her rose considerably. At this moment, sunlight streamed in through the window, casting a gentle glow on her already beautiful face.

After exchanging polite conversation with Fan Yi, you turned your head to glance at Du Xishan in the front row. That old guy was wearing gloves and holding a magnifying glass, studying the bronze ware taken from the tomb with great interest.

You reached out and patted his shoulder. Only then did Du Xishan turn to you with a grin, "Mu Yun, this time you’ve indeed made a significant contribution to our school. Once we get back, I’ll make sure the school rewards you." freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

"Forget about the award. I just did what I needed to do." You glanced outside the window, saw the car was still driving on the highway, and continued, "I felt a bit drained just now. Please help me take a few days off and sort out the military training as well."

Hearing this, Du Xishan smiled and said, "Our department has less than twenty people altogether, and this year, there are only you and Little Yi. You could say that you two are quite special at Jiang University. I forgot to tell you before, but you don’t need to attend classes like the other students. All your courses will be under my guidance, which means that as long as I’m in a good mood, I can casually tick you off, and you’ll get your credits easily."

"That easy?"

You couldn’t help feeling happy. Before entering university, you had heard that university courses were getting harder and the failure rate of students was increasingly high. That’s why you chose a niche within a niche subject. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be this comfortable.

"Of course, my standards are very high too. That’s why we only recruited you two this year." Du Xishan glanced at Fan Yi beside you, "Other places, humanities graduates either end up in libraries or stuck at home. But it’s different with me. After graduating from this school, you’ll be able to join professional institutions, so don’t waste your time."

You and Fan Yi both nodded in agreement.

Just as you felt lucky to have chosen the right major, in a restricted area outside a thousand-year-old mansion in the Capital of Yamato Nation, far across the Eastern Sea, the ancestor of the Wu family and eight other women gathered together, each with a solemn expression.

"Ladies, this matter is of great importance. You can’t keep hiding things any longer; state your positions," said the ancestor of the Wu family, with a trace of cold light flickering in her eyes.

After a moment of silence, the middle-aged woman dressed in Miao ethnic attire spoke, "What concerns me is how that young man named Li Muyun managed to awaken the Empress, and why, after waking, the Empress lost her sanity and fell so easily for a small Taoist’s bewitchment."

"Indeed, I always felt that there was something odd about that boy. When I heard his roar outside the gate that day, I noticed a slight tremor in my Soul Beads," said a woman dressed in a black wind coat with graying hair but a long ponytail, her age indiscernible, casually.

"Really?" The expression of the ancestor of the Wu family grew even darker.

"Why don’t I have someone go kill him?"

"No!" The woman in the black wind coat hastily objected, "Don’t forget, he is the last direct descendant of the Li Family. If he dies an untimely death before his time, that person’s soul will be hooked away forever!"

"Then what should we do? We can’t really let the Empress see him, can we?"

"Of course not! The Empress has slept for a thousand years for what? We are to help the Empress achieve a thousand years of dominion, not indulge in idle talk of romance!"

At this point, a woman standing in the corner, who had blended herself into the darkness so completely that no one could make out her face, spoke up, "I have a plan."

The women all turned their heads to look at her, "Speak!"

"Seal the Empress’s memory. Now while she is at her weakest, we must take advantage of the time she is in retreat. All nine of us will take action together, sealing away every memory of her time spent with that Li Family boy!"

"I agree."

"Good, let’s do it!"

The ancestor of the Wu family steeled her heart and finally agreed. Then, the nine women turned their gazes toward the ancient mansion...

"Ha—" Once you got off the bus, you stretched out luxuriously on the ground.

At that moment, Du Xishan walked up to you and whispered in your ear, "Bring the jade tomorrow night to my dorm, and I’ll help you take a look at it."

You nodded, aware that the jade was also part of cultural relics but lacking historical value, so at most, it could only be considered a collectible or antique. That’s why Du Xishan was willing to let go; otherwise, with his character, he definitely would not agree to let you trade cultural relics.

Finally, Du Xishan loudly added, "Oh, right, I forgot to tell you. Starting this year, our school’s military training is for a month, and it is conducted under full military management. Unless you are missing limbs, there is no way to skimp through it."

"No way, full military management means..."

"Yes, that’s right, at a military camp!"
