After some banter, Jiang Shouzhong returned to seriousness and continued exploring the tunnel with the woman.
As for things like calling someone 'dad,' it was merely a joke.
Jiang Shouzhong neither dared to hope nor fantasize that it would ever come true someday.
After walking some distance, the two discovered bloodstains on the ground, indicating that a fight had taken place earlier.
"It seems there were demons here, killed by Brother Fang."
Jiang Shouzhong squatted down, dipped his finger into some black blood, and said, "But there's no demon corpse, which is strange. Maybe this type of demon disappears after death."
Jiang Yi was curiously examining some dilapidated and mottled murals on the wall.
The murals depicted some monkeys.
These monkeys had various postures, looking extremely jubilant.
Some bared claws and fangs, others jumped around wildly, each holding a white human skull, gathered before a stele.
After observing for a moment, the two continued forward.
