Chen Miao had been avoiding the question of Zhong Cai.
And not just Zhong Cai, but Xiao Bai as well, because Chen Miao could think of no way to save them.
Everything came back to Elder Bamboo.
If Chen Miao could deal with Elder Bamboo, Xiao Bai and Zhong Cai's problems would naturally be solved. If he couldn't, no amount of thinking would help.
But now that Chen Miao had learned about the Five Hells Six Livestock Reincarnation Art, a few ideas suddenly came to him.
Since he couldn't draw on the strength of Old Ghost and the others, could he make use of Zhong Cai instead?
Of course, he didn't mean sending Zhong Cai to kill Elder Bamboo. That would be no different from sending him to his death.
What Chen Miao had in mind was having Zhong Cai do something while Elder Bamboo performed the Five Hells Six Livestock Reincarnation Art.
For example, leaving this cavern to contact the Administration outside.
Before, when Chen Miao left the Administration, he had deliberately revealed Old Ghost's and Elder Bamboo's names.
Originally, Chen Miao had wanted to tell them directly to find higher-ranked Investigators, such as B-rank or A-rank ones.
But the problem was, would they listen just because he told them to?
That was why Chen Miao had thought of revealing Elder Bamboo's and Old Ghost's identities.
Old Ghost had said before that both he and Elder Bamboo were on file with the Administration. Giving their names would naturally be more convincing than simply asking for help.
Even if they weren't listed as Old Ghost and Elder Bamboo in the Administration's records, the Southern School's Thirteenth Branch of the curse dao would be enough to identify who had attacked them.
Unfortunately, judging by what happened in the book, this approach
