Chapter 40: The Illusory Reflection of Mount Kuang (Middle and Lower)
Wen Baiyu deeply regretted asking that question earlier, making the current situation extremely awkward, and didn't know what tone to use when speaking with Wan Qi Jinghou.
It was Wan Xi Jing Hou who was very natural, still with that "dead face", seeing Wen Bai Yu scratching his ears and cheeks, he said: "After eating, rest early, your body is still weak, hurry up and lie down."
Wen Baiyu: "......"
Wan Xi Jinghou covered him with a quilt, and Wen Baiyu said discontentedly: "Eat and sleep, do you think you're raising pigs?"
Suddenly felt something was wrong, isn't this scolding myself!
Wan Xi Jing Hou smiled and lowered his head to kiss him on the lips, saying: "I'm going to take a bath."
Taking a bath!
Take a bath!
Wen Baiyu suddenly became very nervous, Wan Jingshou went to take a bath, and soon heard the sound of "gushing" water, Wen Baiyu couldn't help but imagine Wan Jingshou's figure, abdominal muscles, and even imagined a "beautiful person bathing picture", his tense face turned red, feeling a bit hot, and he kicked off the quilt.
The sound of water stopped.
"Ka", not a moment later, the door opened and Wen Baiyu heard footsteps, it must be Wan Kuang Jinghou coming out. Then there was a "creak" sound from the bed, as if someone had sat down on his bed.
Wen Baiyu and Du could hear their own heartbeats now, as frightening as thunder!
Wen Baiyu felt a warm and humid breath, which was the steam from her recent shower. Her heart was racing like thunder, and she had some slight expectations...
However, just as Wen Baiyu was getting anxious and excited, "creak" another sound, the person beside her got up, sat down on the bed next to her, lay down, turned off the light, and the room fell silent for a moment...
Wen Baiyu: "......"
This doesn't seem quite right!
Wen Baiyu was lying on the bed, tangled for a long time, when he heard a "creak" sound beside him. Wan Kuang Jing Hou turned over and said: "Can't sleep?"
Who the heck can fall asleep?!
However, he did not speak, but turned his back and faced away from General Wan Jinhong.
He soon heard the low laughter of Wan Xi Jing Hou, as if it was full of understanding.
Wen Bai's face suddenly turned red with anger, thinking viciously, "That black-hearted person behind me wouldn't be doing it on purpose, would he?"
At this moment, Wan Qi Jing Hou suddenly came over, lay down beside Wen Bai Yu, hugged him from behind, and then reached down.
"Ah!"
Wen Baiyu let out a startled cry and broke into a cold sweat, saying: "My god, where's your hand... Ah!"
He cried out again, then curled up his body and trembled in Wan Qi Jing Hou's arms.
Wan Xi Jing Hou smiled softly and kissed his earlobe, whispering: "So comfortable?"
Wen Baiyu rolled her eyes and said in a bad tone, "A man being touched like this would definitely... definitely have a reaction. If he didn't, then he should go see a doctor!"
Wen Baiyu finished speaking and suddenly felt something was off behind her. She felt something pressing against the back of her legs, and her whole body stiffened as she stammered: "Y...y...you..."
Wan Xi Jing Hou smiled and reached out to pinch Wen Bai Yu's earlobe, saying: "It seems I don't need to go see a doctor either."
Wen Baiyu: "......"
It's not suitable to tell jokes now!
Wan Jihou patted Wen Baiyu's buttocks with his hand, and Wen Baiyu's old face suddenly turned red. Then he heard Wan Jihou say: "Your body is still weak, tomorrow we will have another fight, I won't go all the way... Good boy, clench your legs tightly."
Damn it...
Wen Baiyu's heart was being tormented by Wan Kuang Jing Hou, and he felt like banging his head against the wall. The person behind him was tightly wrapped around his waist, "tormenting" himself while using his own legs to... Wen Baiyu was so angry that he was about to explode, it would be better if someone just gave him a quick knife!
Wen Baiyu let out a soft sigh, his whole body trembling as he collapsed into Wan Jingshou's arms. Wan Jingshou still held tightly onto his thigh, his heavy breathing spilling onto his ear, and he continued to plant kisses on his earlobe.
Wen Baiyu was initially very nervous, listening to Wan Jingshou's hoarse voice, so nervous that he couldn't help but feel a little drowsy as time went on. He became even more convinced that Wan Jingshou was not a normal person. Finally, he understood why Wan Jingshou said his body was weak - compared to him, any normal person would be weak! If they were to engage in a real fight, Wen Baiyu would definitely fall halfway through!
Just as Wen Baiyu was about to fall asleep in a daze, he suddenly felt a chill between his legs.
"Ah..."
Wen Baiyu subconsciously shouted, but she couldn't resist her drowsiness and fell asleep.
The next morning, Wen Baiyu felt a chill beside him and opened his eyes to find himself nestled in Wang Qishan's arms. The man was shirtless, with an arm wrapped around him, and due to their height difference, he rested his chin on top of Wen Baiyu's head, sleeping soundly.
Wen Baiyu couldn't help but think of yesterday, an old face slightly flushed, wrinkled his nose in disdain, but ultimately couldn't resist the temptation, stretched out his hand to touch Wang Qi Jing Hou's abdominal muscles.
Wan Kuang Jinghou suddenly opened his eyes, startling Wen Baiyu, and saw him staring at himself, then moved a little closer to himself. Wen Baiyu immediately froze.
"Get out, get out! My...my two legs are aching now, you've ruined me!"
Wan Xi Jing Hou chuckled and said, "Who told you to get up so early?"
Wen Baiyu rolled her eyes and said: "I touched your abs, not that place of yours, yet you blame me for being emotional all the time!"
He jumped off the bed and ran into the bathroom as if for his life.
Jiǔ Mìng's mood was particularly good, and he came knocking on the door early in the morning. Wēn Bái Yǔ held a toothbrush to open the door for him, and Jiǔ Mìng said in surprise: "Huh, you're up?"
Wen Baiyu said: "Should I give you this sentence? Yesterday Donghai said you were tired, but today you're jumping around?"
Jiǔ Mìng grunted and said, "I am a god, I'm not as weak as you mortals."
"Eight-tailed deity."
"Eight and a half! Eight and a half!"
Wen Baiyu blocked the door and wouldn't let him in, saying "Nothing's wrong, I'll just close the door."
Jiǔ Mìng smiled and looked inside, just to see Wàn Xī Jǐnghóu had just gotten out of bed, still bare-chested, and was about to put on his clothes. Wēn Bái Yǔ turned around and glared at Wàn Xī Jǐnghóu, saying: "Don't dawdle, hurry up and get dressed."
Jiu Ming smiled and said: "Alright, I won't look. I came to ask you, are you physically okay? Can you go down to the arena again tonight?"
Wen Baiyu patted his chest and said: "My body is naturally fine, tonight we will go find you guys."
Jiǔ Mìng said: "Alright, you guys must be more restrained. You even came to knock on the door before, don't you know how loudly you were shouting last night?"
Wen Baiyu: "......"
Under Wen Baihe's fierce gaze, Jiuming finally walked out of the door with a sigh.
Wen Baiyu thought with a hollow heart, yesterday night he himself called out for ghosts, but actually didn't call out at all!
After dinner, everyone sat together to discuss the tomb affair.
"Wow, you suddenly fainted! What happened?"
Wen Baiyu's memory was a bit fuzzy, and he said: "It was just that I saw a strange baby, and Wan Jingshou said it was a kind of demon."
He thought for a moment and said: "And the mirror is very evil, it can actually replicate a person who looks exactly like me, and he wants to kill me."
Donghai said: "Legend has it that the Kunlun Mirror is the treasure of the Sea Clan, which can replicate a mirror image. However, as for what it looks like, I've never seen it before, and it disappeared long ago. Although the mirror image is exactly the same as the original body, it's not the real thing after all, and there will come a day when it disappears. That's why the mirror image would do things that want to replace the original body."
Wen Baiyu nodded slightly, no wonder that mirror image said that only one of them could live.
Wen Baiyu suddenly said: "That mirror image is still in the Earth Temple, will he run out?"
Dong Hai said: "It shouldn't be possible. The mirror can only exist around the edge of the Kuangyin Seal and cannot leave it."
Jiǔ Mìng said: "What is this tomb actually used for? Why is it so eerie inside, even the long-lost Kuí Tóng Seal is here?"
Wan Xi Jing Hou said: "It can be confirmed that this tomb is a follower of Huo Mo or it is the mausoleum of Huo Mo."
Wen Baiyu shivered and said: "We didn't find any coffins before, we only saw some messy things."
Wan Qi Jing Hou took a look outside the window, the sky was completely dark, from the window looking out, there were no pedestrians outside anymore. The advantage of small places is that they rest early, and they also go out early.
Wan Kuang Jing Hou carried his luggage on his back, inside were all his equipment.
Just as Wen Baiyu was about to leave, Jiǔ Mìng said: "My butt hurts, carry me on your back!"
Wen Baiyu: "......"
Wen Baiyu really wanted to pry open Jiuming's brain and take a look at what kind of thought process he had, how could he be so shameless... was he trying to act cute?
Donghai is a poker face, but he looks really gentle, especially to Jiuming, and actually carries him on his back.
Wen Baiyu followed behind, and then heard Jiǔ Mìng say: "But I also want the princess to hug."
Wen Baiyu: "......"
He can't hold it in anymore...
Many people came to the riverbank and found that the trees in the river had withered even more, their branches severely lacking water, as if they were suffering from a strange disease. Although their roots were deeply embedded in the water, they appeared exceptionally weak and limp.
The East Sea waves rolled open, and everyone found the entrance of the underground palace before. Wen Baiyu suddenly shouted: "Wait."
He said, pointing in the direction of Jianmu, the East Sea only rolled up the waves where they were, and Jianmu was still submerged in the water. With the flow of the waves, you could vaguely see something wrapped around Jianmu's surroundings.
They walked over and saw that the roots of Jianmu were surrounded by a layer of light yellow things. The shape of these things was very strange, just like plastic wrap wrapped around the roots of Jianmu. Where Jianmu was surrounded, there was a green color like moss, and white hair grew on the side.
Nine lives lay on the back of the East Sea and said: "Too disgusting, is this a long hair?"
Wan Xi Jing Hou used a probe to touch the yellow stuff, and it was really disgusting. Once touched by the probe, it melted like ice and would be poked into deformation.
Wan Qi Jing Hou furrowed his brow and immediately said: "What do you think this shape looks like?"
Wen Baiyu looked carefully for half a day and said: "It's like several people working together to hug Jianmu."
Wan Qi Jing Hou nodded and said, "That's right."
"Is it human?!"
Wen Baiyu took a step back in fright, feeling so nauseous that he didn't even dare swallow his saliva, and felt like vomiting.
Wan Qi Jinghou said: "This is corpse wax, also known as petroleum. After a person dies, if they are kept in water for a long time or in an unventilated place, the subcutaneous fat will decompose. I have never seen a case of complete corpse wax before, these corpses have all turned into corpse wax, it must have taken at least one year or a year and a half."
Wen Baiyu felt nauseous and wanted to vomit. He thought that Wan Jie Jing Hou was indeed knowledgeable, having even seen such a perverted thing.
Wen Baiyu suppressed her nausea and said, "Who is so boring that they would use corpse wax to wrap up Jianmu? They're all hairy, if this isn't demonic then what is?"
Wan Xi Jing Hou simply shook his head and said, "First move the corpse away."
He said, taking out a pair of rubber gloves from his backpack and putting them on, then reaching out to pinch those dead wax.
"Ugh..."
Wen Baiyu looked at the corpse wax being pinched by Wan Kuang Jinghou, and it suddenly deformed, seeming to be particularly soft. She finally couldn't bear it, covering her mouth as if she was about to vomit.
Wan Xi Jing Hou's hands were about to lift the corpse, but halfway through the motion, he suddenly froze, his face turning pale.
"What's wrong?"
Wan Xi Jing Hou kept his previous action and said: "There is something below."
Wen Baiyu was startled and said: "What, what is it?"
Wan Kuang Jing Hou swept his gaze over the crowd and said, "Be careful."
He said, moving the corpse wax away. Just as the corpse wax was completely removed from Jianmu, Wen Baiyu heard a cry of "Wah! Wah......wah......"
Suddenly a "swish" sound, he was closest to Wan Xi Jing Hou, two ropes tied up his hands at once, lowering his head to look, it wasn't rope at all, but vines!
Under the corpse wax, there were countless baby heads, all with infant heads, but below were vines, and the roots of Jianmu had been pulled out of the soil. Countless tendrils entwined Jianmu's roots, densely packed in a chaotic mess that could trigger claustrophobia just by looking at it.
Innumerable creepers are twining around Jianmu, absorbing its nutrients.
"Ah!"
Wen Baiyu let out a loud cry, the thorns of the rattan pierced into his arm, still tearing at him, pulling him forward. Wan Kuangjing had only moved one corpse, but there were many more. Wen Baiyu's eyes were fixed on the moment when he would come into close contact with the corpses, his whole body rigidly closing his eyes, that suffocating swelling sensation rising up again.
"Wow—"
It was the baby's shrill cry, and suddenly a "sizzling" sound came from Wan Baiyu's arm, as if something had been burned. The vines that tightly wrapped around Wan Baiyu's arm instantly turned to ashes, falling to the ground with a rustling sound, turning into a pile of gray dust.
The vines on the infant's body were like they had been frightened, and they quickly crawled on the ground with both hands, dispersing in all directions.
Wen Baiyu didn't know what was going on, and Wan Jingshou had already rushed over, saying: "How is it?"
Wan Kuang Jing Hou reached out to touch him, but Wen Bai Yu immediately took a step back and said disdainfully: "Hands... take off your gloves first."
Wan Gui Jing Hou: "......"
Wan Xi Jing Hou took off his gloves and threw them aside. Only then did Wen Bai Yu allow him to touch himself.
Wan Kuang Jing Hou held up his arm, which was covered in bloodstains wrapped with vines and small puncture wounds that looked like needle holes.
Wen Baiyu hadn't reacted yet when Wan Jingshou had already lowered his head and gently licked his wound.
"Hiss——"
Wen Baiyu's arm twitched slightly, not because it hurt, but because Wan Jingshou's lick was too light, causing fine grains to appear on his arm, and the electric current rushed from his arm straight to his brain.
The white feathers on the swan's neck slowly faded, and the small scratches also slowly healed. Jiǔ Mìng thought it was fun, lying on Dōnghǎi's back, suddenly stretching out his tongue to lick the base of Dōnghǎi's ear.
The East Sea's breathing became slightly labored, and the Nine Lives smiled mischievously, saying: "Next time you're injured, I'll also lick your wounds."
Dong Hai took a deep breath and simply said: "Okay."
Wen Baiyu: "......"
Wen Baiyu said: "How can there be so many monsters under the wooden building?"
Wan Qi Jing Hou said: "These vines are gathered under the Jianmu, absorbing its nutrients, and then dragging people to the shore. These bodies should be those of pedestrians who were dragged into the water."
Wen Baiyu said strangely: "Why are there so many vines in the river?"
Dong Hai said: "I don't know, this thing is not a creature in the water."
Wan Xi Jing Hou thought for a moment and said: "Maybe it's raised by the tomb owner."
"Pet?!"
Wan Qi Jing Hou said: "It's not impossible, many tomb owners like to bury rare treasures with them, and these rare treasures are not limited to gold, silver, jade and stone."
The white-robed man said with a sneer: "The tomb owner is indeed a freak."
Wan Qi Jing Hou put on rubber gloves again and cleaned up Jianmu's roots, being despised by Wen Baiyu for half a day.
Jianmu's self-repair ability is very good, after removing the dead wax, it is clearly self-repairing, and those mosses and white hairs are slowly fading away.
"Let's go."
The crowd then walked towards the underground palace, and the thief's hole that was opened last time was still there. They walked in along the thief's hole, and inside the underground palace, there was air, and a drainage system, which was very cleverly designed.
"It's really strange, the tomb owner clearly worships the fire demon, so why would they build the underground palace in water? Water overcomes fire, I know this much."
Wan Xi Jing Hou said: "A thousand miles of dragon, ending here."
Wen Baiyu coughed and said, "I don't understand."
Wan Qi Jinghou explained: "Having mountains and water is a Feng Shui treasure land, the ancients liked to build tombs in such places, and this happens to be a point of continuation."
Wen Baiyu said in surprise: "In other words, the tomb owner insisted on building the mausoleum here because this is a piece of auspicious land?"
Wan Qi Jing Hou nodded and said, "The purpose of Feng Shui in grave construction is not more than two things. The first is to provide shelter for future generations, and the second is to view death as life, hoping that one day they can die and be reborn."
Wen Baiyu said: "This tomb is raising a monster, it's definitely not the first possibility of being a descendant of the sheltered, that means it's the second one?"
Donghai said: "It's very likely that this Qihole has abundant Yin Qi."
They said, already walked into the depths of the tomb passage, Jiǔ Mìng touched his chin and said: "I don't know why, but I feel that this road we're taking is different from the first time we came in."
Wan Xi Jing Hou suddenly stretched out his hand and touched the wall, furrowed his brow, and said: "The tomb passage is turning."
"Really?!"
Wen Baiyu was startled, but he didn't feel anything at all.
Wan Qi Jinghou said: "The tomb passage has been rotating all the time, it may be because the underground palace is too big and we didn't notice the feeling, this is also the reason why we walked into a fork in the road last time and suddenly dispersed."
"What's going to happen now?"
Wan Kuang Jing Hou reached out and grabbed Wen Bai Yu's hand, saying: "Don't let go."
Wen Baiyu nodded immediately.
They continued walking forward, and suddenly a very strange tunnel appeared in front of them.
At the entrance of the tunnel, there was a stone tablet with inscriptions in seal script that Wen Baiyu couldn't understand. He stretched his head to look inside the tunnel and saw that it was designed in a circular shape, with small round holes on the left wall at an arc of 180 degrees.
Wen Baiyu wanted to stretch his head out to take a look, but was suddenly pulled back by Wan Kuang Jinghou, who said: "The round hole on the wall is the exit for crossbows/arrows, there are mechanisms inside."
Wen Baiyu was a bit afraid, if he really stuck his head out, wouldn't he be beaten until he had sieve-like holes?
"What can we do?" said Wen Baiyu.
The Wan Qi Jing Hou pointed to the stone tablet on the ground and said: "The stone tablet says that we need to make three bows and nine knocks to pass, look at the hole in the wall, we can also pass by crouching down."
Donghai put down the nine lives from his back, held his hand, and Wan Kuang Jinghou also held Wen Baiyu's hand. The four of them slowly bent their waists and walked in.
Because the Yongdao was designed to make people kneel and kowtow, it is a crawling path forward, so the empty holes on the stone wall are at half-body height, they can enter even if they don't kneel, crouching down.
Just as everyone had walked two-thirds of the way and was about to exit the tunnel, a loud "crack" sound was heard.
Wen Baiyu immediately turned around, staring at Jiuming, thinking that Jiuming had bumped into something.
Jiǔ Mìng also opened his eyes wide and said innocently: "What are you looking at me for? I didn't do anything..."
He had just finished speaking when Wen Baiyu saw a baby lying on the back of Jiuming, with an enormous head that seemed deformed, grinning at him.
"Ah!!!!!!"
Wen Baiyu shouted loudly, his trembling finger pointing at Jiuming. However, Jiuming didn't feel anything and had a huge baby lying on his back, yet he didn't feel any weight. He looked puzzled and said, "What's wrong with you?"
Wan Qi Jing Hou also turned back, furrowed his brow, and suddenly pressed down on Wen Bai Yu, shouting: "Get down!"
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
The crossbow bolt/arrows shot out of the hole in an instant, flying quickly towards them, and were about to turn into a sieve before they could react. Wen Baiyu was pressed to the ground by Wan Jijing Hou.
There were "whooshing" sounds on top of her head, Wen Baiyu felt that there was wind all over her brain, and then some green powder came down, smelling sweet.
Wan Xi Jing Hou covered his mouth and nose with one hand and said, "The powder is poisonous."
He said, pulling up Wen Baiyu and rushing towards the end of the corridor.
Donghai also dragged away the nine lives. The nine lives didn't know what Wen Baiyu had just shouted at himself, and he was always crouching down, how did he trigger the mechanism?
They rushed forward quickly, Wen Baiyu sucked the sweet powder, her mind was dizzy, her legs went soft, and she felt a bit out of control.
Just then, "Whoosh!"
A crossbow bolt/arrows shot out from a hole in the wall, this was one of the holes on the edge of the corridor, but the position of the hole was lower than the other holes, and it seemed to be shooting directly at Wen Baiyu's body.
Wen Baiyu was still dazed, when he suddenly stretched out his hand and felt something cool and icy between his index and middle fingers. When he looked closely, it was truly amazing!
He actually picked up the crossbow arrow with his hand, just like in a TV martial arts movie! He was holding the arrow with his index and middle fingers, that move was so cool, Wen Baiyu thought, this is the time to take a selfie, posing a V sign in front of the camera...
"Throw it away quickly, the crossbow bolt/arrows are poisoned."
Wen Baiyu was startled by Wan Jieying Hou's voice and immediately dropped his crossbow arrow, being led forward by Wan Jieying Hou.
They exited the Yongdao, Wen Baiyu lay on the ground, panting and feeling dizzy in her head, also didn't know if that sweet powder would have any aftereffects.
Jiuming and Donghai also ran out, Jiuming sat down beside him with a fart, saying: "Nothing, why are you yelling at me like a ghost? Even if I'm more handsome than you, there's no need to be so jealous of me."
Wen Baiyu: "......"
Wen Baiyu went to see Jiuming. There was no big-headed baby on Jiuming's back, so he let out a sigh of relief and said: "Just now there was a big-headed ghost lying on your back!"
He didn't believe it at all, he simply didn't feel anything.
Wen Baiyu said: "Don't believe me? Ask Wan Kui Jinghou! He also saw it."
Wan Xi Jing Hou nodded.
At this time, all the hair on his body stood up and he said: "Is... is there really? I didn't feel anything."
Wan Qi Jing Hou said: "It should be a ghost, not a zongzi, so it has no weight. A ghost only has yin energy and no yang energy, it wants to absorb your yang energy."
Jiuming shuddered and said, "This tomb has everything."
Wen Baiyu rested for a while, and that dizzy feeling finally disappeared. He got up from the ground and said, "Let's go."
Wen Baiyu just stood up, raised his head, and saw the big-headed baby on Jiuming's back again. The baby's eyes were smiling into slits, his double chin was pouting, his ears were very large, and he had a rich and noble look on his face. However, the baby looked really strange and was staring at him with a smile!
"Ah!"
Wen Baiyu shouted again and took a step back, stumbling as he pointed at Jiuming.
He looked at his expression and suddenly tensed up, fearfully stretching out his hand to hug Donghai, saying: "Is there a ghost!?"
Donghai turned back, and the big-headed baby was gone. Jiuming was so scared that he trembled with fear, his hands holding him tight, his two legs still clamped around his waist, looking like a sloth.
Donghai held up nine lives and said, "It's already gone."
"Why does it always land on my back!"
Wen Baiyu said: "Aren't you a god? How can you also be afraid of ghosts?"
Nine Lives: “……”
Wan Qi Jing Hou furrowed his brow and said: "He should have no ill intentions towards us."
Wen Baiyu seems to think so too, but always comes and goes, laughing all the way, they can't accept this kindness either, sooner or later they will be scared to death.
Wan Xi Jing Hou grasped Wen Bai Yu's hand and said, "Let's go."
After passing through the wall of the crossbow machine, there is another section of the tunnel, which is very safe and has no mechanism. Then it connects to the stone chamber.
The stone door was closed, looking very heavy. Wan Qi Jing Hou stretched out his hand to touch it, then pushed it again, and after a few seconds of silence, said: "This door is very solid, with self-moving stones behind."
Wen Baiyu said strangely: "What is a self-come stone? I've never heard of it before."
Wan Qi Jinghou said: "It's equivalent to a door bolt, behind the door there is a huge long stone pillar tied with sheepskin rope. As time goes by, the sheepskin rope breaks and the stone pillar tilts, blocking the tomb gate. Moreover, the lower end of the stone pillar is usually inserted into a recess in the ground, this kind of self-locking tomb gate is very solid and cannot be opened from the outside, only from the inside."
Wen Baiyu curiously lay on the door, looking inside through the gap. She could vaguely see a huge stone behind the door, and a chill was coming out from the gap. It seemed to be as cold as an ice cellar inside.
Wen Baiyu said: "Can't open it? There's no road ahead, we must pass through this stone room, if we can't open it, are we going to go back?"
Wan Xi Jing Hou smiled and said, "This kind of tomb door is almost impossible to open with brute force. Even if you use explosives, it's not necessarily possible to open it. However, there is a way that is quite simple."
He said, Wen Baiyu was curious to death, but Wan Jingshou didn't say anything else. He took off his backpack, pulled out a lighter from inside, and then pulled out a very thick notebook. He randomly tore out several pages, lit them with the lighter, and stuffed them into the gap under the door.
"What is this?" said Wen Baiyu.
Wan Qi Jinghou said: "The tomb chamber was built with ice as self-generating stone to strengthen the yin energy."
Wen Baiyu said: "No wonder it's so cold inside?"
Because it was very cold inside, the fire was about to go out soon. Wan Xi Jing Hou tore off a few more pages and stuffed them in, and soon there were dripping sounds coming from inside, followed by a clear liquid flowing out through the gap under the door.
It's indeed melted ice.
The boulder was extremely large, at the very least as thick as a bowl. They burned all the paper, and only then did it barely fit. General Wan Qi Jing looked through the gap in the door, then reached out to push against it, using a bit of force.
Just then, there was a "crack" sound, and something behind the tomb door broke. Immediately, the tomb door creaked open with a loud rumble, revealing a puddle of water and two broken ice pillars behind it, which had been melted to a very thin layer.
They walked in, and suddenly felt a chill. To prevent the self-come stone from melting, neat piles of ice blocks were placed inside the tomb chamber, transforming it into a magnificent ice cave. Everywhere was carved with intricate designs, and outside the tomb wall, another layer of ice wall was built. The entire tomb's ice was reflecting light.
In the middle of the tomb, ice blocks were piled up to form a huge stepped platform, and on it was placed a coffin made of golden nanmu wood.
Wen Baiyu sighed and said: "It's too cold, is this the main tomb chamber?"
He had just finished speaking when there was a "crack" sound.
Wen Baiyu was so frightened that she tightly grasped Wang Ju's hand and said: "What sound?"
Another "crack" sound.
The tomb itself was cold, and Wen Baiyu's back had already turned chilly at this time.
Dong Hai faintly said: "It's a coffin."
"Are you going to raise a corpse?!"
Wen Baiyu felt like he was extremely unlucky, no matter where he went, there would always be zombies.
Just as he was sighing, the coffin made another "creaking" sound, and a gap appeared, followed by the sound of children's laughter coming out, not the roar of zongzi, but the laughter of a child!
This laughter is like it's going to split your sides, even more terrifying than zongzi!
Wen Baiyu said: "What's in the coffin, laughing so terrifyingly!"
He had just finished speaking when "Ka!" a loud noise was heard, the coffin lid was completely lifted, and a hand stretched out to slowly push the coffin lid open.
Wen Baiyu suddenly held her breath and took a step back, just as the coffin lid was pushed open. A hand stretched out completely, it was a plump hand with baby fat...
"Hahaha."
"Hahaha..."
That voice was still laughing, one hand grasped the edge of the coffin, and then suddenly another head stretched out!
"Ah!"
Wen Baiyu was so frightened that she let out a low cry, and that head was extremely large, especially big, just like a deformed one, an infant's head, with a smile on his face, eyes smiling into two slits, looking exactly the same as the ghost she saw earlier!
"Wen Baiyu said: "This... this is probably the body of that ghost..."
Wen Baiyu thought of the ghost from earlier and although it had been following them, it hadn't shown any malice, so she wasn't that scared anymore.
Just as he let his guard down, Wan Xi Jing Hou suddenly furrowed his brow and said, "Look."
Wen Baiyu looked back at the sound, and suddenly felt a chill, saying: "Oh my god!!"
Jiǔ Mìng was startled, originally in human form, but scared to "meow" and cried out, afterwards he clung tightly to the East Sea, not having any divine appearance at all.
All that can be seen is the baby in the coffin "giggling" and smiling at them, then another hand rests on the edge of the coffin, and another, and another...
Another head poked out from inside the coffin, smiling at them, then another head poked out...
Three heads and six arms...
Wen Baiyu said: "How can so many children be squeezed into one coffin?"
Wan Xi Jing Hou shook his head and said: "There is only one child."
As soon as he finished speaking, those children struggled to crawl out of the coffin, their bodies exposed outside the coffin, and surprisingly, there was only one torso!
A torso with three heads and six arms!
This is the real three heads and six arms!
Wen Baiyu looked at the baby's six arms waving constantly, just like a centipede, and felt nauseous. "You... you look at that child's forehead and hands."
Wan Qi Jinghou said: "It's a flame... This shouldn't be the main tomb chamber, but rather where the tomb owner raised them. The infant's qi is sufficient, making it easy to raise corpses."
"What's the point of raising him?"
Wan Qi Jing Hou said: "Eat, after the tomb owner comes back to life, they will have to eat something nutritious."
Wen Baiyu let out a "pa" sound and said: "Don't... don't say it anymore, it's too disgusting."
The nine lives were also disgusted and said: "Still standing stupidly, run quickly! He's about to climb out!"
Wan Kuang said: "There is no road behind, we must move forward. I will distract the enemy, you go first."
The infant crawled out of the coffin and did not immediately attack them, as if it knew they had to go out through the door behind the coffin. With six arms and legs, it crawled down the stairs and blocked the tomb entrance.
Wen Baiyu: "......"
This zongzi is quite intelligent!
Wan Kuang Jing Hou took out a dragon-scale ladle and suddenly threw it out with a "whoosh".
Wow!
Zongzi let out a loud cry, his hands and feet moved quickly as he scrambled to the side. His movements were extremely fast, almost instantaneous, but Wan Kuang's dagger was also swift, slicing across Zongzi's forehead with a whooshing sound.
The sound of zongzi turned into a sharp cry, and the flame on his forehead was drawn out with a mouthful, breaking off from the middle.
The method of Wan Qi Jing Hou seems to be particularly effective, the zongzi was thoroughly enraged by Wan Qi Jing Hou, three infant heads began to twist and turn in anger, their faces contorted, six arms waving, crawling and scurrying on the ground, pouncing towards Wan Qi Jing Hou.
Wen Baiyu's heart was racing with fear as she watched this infant, who despite being burdened with many things, was crawling too quickly.
Just as Zongzi was about to pounce, Wan Qi Jinghou suddenly kicked the wall behind him with one foot and jumped up, stepping on Zongzi's back.
"Ka-ba!" With a single shout, the zongzi was trampled by Wan Qi Jing Hou, and the whole person fell to the ground. The floor actually sank into a shallow pit, and it's unknown just how great Wan Qi Jing Hou's leg strength is.
Wan Xi Jing Hou ordered them to stop and look at them, saying: "Hurry up."
Wen Baiyu heard a "crack" and suddenly shivered. He was worried about Wan Kuang Jinghou just now, but he should be worried about that rice dumpling instead. Just listening to it made him feel painful.
Wen Baiyu and Jiuming rushed towards the wooden door behind the coffin, and indeed there was a self-opening stone, but because it was inside the tomb chamber, the self-opening stone could be pushed open, and the grave door opened very easily.
The path was only one, and it went all the way down, but how long it was couldn't be seen clearly. The three of them ran with their heads down, when suddenly Dong Hai said a sentence: "Be careful."
Wen Baiyu stopped in her tracks, Dong Hai's eyes were shining brightly as he looked down at the ground and said: "The front tombstone is loose, there's a mechanism."
Wen Baiyu took a closer look and indeed saw that the tombstone in front of her had a faint crack. If she hadn't looked carefully, she wouldn't have noticed it at all, and even if she did, she would have thought it was just due to aging over time.
"Dong Hai said: 'Don't step on it, go around.'"
He walked ahead first, and Jiǔ Mìng also followed carefully, with Wēn Bái Yǔ walking at the back, not daring to be careless, following in the footsteps of the two people in front.
He had just stepped over the stone slab when he let out a loud "ah".
Jiǔ Mìng was startled by him and said: "How..."
The words had not been spoken yet, when a lot of vines were seen wrapped around Wen Baiyu's legs. A group of infant-sized monsters clung to Wen Baiyu's legs, wailing loudly, and it was unknown where they came from.
It was just a glimpse, and the warm white feathers were dragged back by them. They immediately hit the loose stone slab, "clang" sound, the stone slab collapsed instantly, and a large pit appeared.
Wen Baiyu's hands slapped against the edge of the stone slab with a loud "slap", her entire body suspended in mid-air. She looked down and immediately felt dizzy, below her was an endless darkness, she had no idea how big this pit was, or if there were sharp spikes at the bottom.
And those vines were still hanging on his legs, shaking vigorously.
Wen Baiyu only felt his fingers numb, and he couldn't grasp anything. Just as Jiuming was about to grab him, Wen Baiyu let out an "ah" and suddenly plummeted downwards.
"White Feather..."
"White Feather..."
"White Feather..."
Wen Baiyu felt that his five zang and six fu organs were all shattered, and there was a murmuring sound in his ears like an auditory hallucination.
He seemed to see a man in black robes standing at the window of the palace, looking towards the east.
He is King Xiang.
He whispered softly, White Feather...
Behind Xiang Wang stood a man with flame marks on his head and hands, who was the Guoshi.
The national teacher said he was a ancient tribe walked out, he is the descendant of fire god, representing the supreme light, the national teacher can foresee wind and rain, also know disaster, in Xiangguo is considered a divine person.
Since King Xiang saw the white swan in the forest, he was enchanted. The swan plucked out its wing bone and made it into a phoenix bone dagger for him. The delicate dagger always carried a warm aura. King Xiang still remembered the moment when the swan plucked out its phoenix bone, fresh blood gushing out, staining its feathers red...
The national teacher said, "Honghui is a auspicious deity that can bless the country of Xiang. If the great king wants to obtain Honghui, it's not difficult. He heard that someone found the buried country of Youmu, opened a coffin, and inside was a large piece of black iron, extremely hard, which can be used by skilled craftsmen to make an iron chain to bind the deity. Although Honghui is a deity, the great king is a true dragon, so it's not difficult to capture Honghui and keep it by his side for a long time."
Xiang Wang's heart moved, at that moment, he really wanted to catch Hong Yu by his side, but he also hesitated, in the instant when the divine bird plucked out the phoenix bone, his heart felt like it was being pinched.
Then there was the national teacher's incessant persuasion, for the country, for Xiangguo, to avoid being annexed by other countries, and for his people, he should also take the risk of defying the world.
Xiang Wang finally ordered someone to make the iron chain that binds the immortal, and in the same forest, he found Hong Huan again. The white divine bird did not fly away, still perched on a branch, its fiery eyes lowered, quietly watching him.
The King of Xiang said that as long as he could bring blessings to the State of Xiang, he would immediately release him.
Xiang Wang got the swan goose and locked it in the palace, often coming to see it, always gently stroking its white feathers, on its left wing, where the feathers covered, there was a long scar...
The national teacher began to persuade King Xiang, since the great king has obtained the swan goose, but the swan goose will fly away one day. Why not cook and eat it, so that its flesh and blood can make people live forever and have the same longevity as heaven and earth?
This time, King Xiang did not listen to him. No matter how the national teacher tried to persuade him, it was of no use. He just wanted to see Hong Yu day and night, even if he could live as long as heaven and earth, without seeing Hong Yu, there was no meaning at all. He hated to give the best to Hong Yu, how could he bear to cook him?
Xiang Wang came every day, but Hong Yu didn't even give him a glance. Xiang Wang grasped his hands, with a somewhat violent expression on his face, and said in a cold voice: "I won't let you go, never will, don't think about it again, stay with me, always stay with me, isn't that good? Bai Yu..."
Wen Baiyu only felt that her wrists were being grasped tightly, getting tighter and tighter, and there was something pressing against her chest, about to burst.
"Ah!"
Wen Baiyu shouted loudly and sat up abruptly, staring with wide eyes, only to find that no one was grasping his wrist, but those vines!
The vines were tied around his ankles and wrists, with sharp thorns piercing into the flesh, causing him to break out in a cold sweat.
The white feathers fluttered slightly, and those reverse thorns pierced deeper and deeper.
"Wow..."
"Wah wah……"
The baby was held in his arms and cried, although crying, but the corners of his mouth were smiling, Wen Baiyu's hands were tied with a green rope, without any blood color, clenched fists trembling.
Wen Baiyu took a deep breath, clenched his fists and exerted force, then heard a "whoosh" sound. The vines instantly turned to ashes, and in the blink of an eye, he was covered in dust.
Wow!!!
The infants shrieked and retreated from the warm white feathers, fleeing in all directions. A reluctant tendril still tried to hold onto the warm white feathers, but in an instant its vines were reduced to ashes. The infant's body slowly withered away, revealing its original tendril form, turning into a pile of ash scattered on the ground.
Wen Bai covered her wrist with her hand, which was full of bruises and cuts. She didn't know what had happened, but she felt that the suffocating feeling in her chest had lessened a lot.
With great difficulty, he got up from the ground, looked up and saw that it was really too high, he couldn't see the top at all. He didn't die after falling like this, Wen Baiyu decided that today when he goes out, he must buy a lottery ticket, maybe he can win the jackpot.
Wen Bai's wrist was still bleeding, and she covered it with her sleeve. She looked around and found herself in a huge tomb chamber. The design of the circular sky and square earth made the chamber look grand and magnificent, with golden and jade decorations shining brightly everywhere. Countless long-lasting lamps were lit all around.
These lanterns are made very delicately, and they are all phoenixes, with their heads held high, spewing out flames from their mouths. The six tails of the phoenixes contain lamp oil, constantly supplying fuel for burning.
In the center of the tomb, a huge high platform, stone steps rising layer by layer, on which a coffin was placed, and something stood on the coffin. Because the stone steps were too high, Wen Baiyu was far away and didn't see clearly.
Wen Baiyu slowly walked over and saw that around the stone steps, there were many statues surrounding it, all in a kneeling and worshiping posture. What was strange was that these statues were all women, not a single man among them.
Wen Baiyu was still feeling strange when he heard a rustling sound, and thought that the zongzi in the coffin was going to rise from the dead. However, the sound actually came from above his head.
He looked up and found that someone was falling from above, but upon closer inspection, he wasn't falling - he was holding onto a rope and sliding down quickly.
It's Wan Gui Jing Hou!
Wen Baiyu raised his head and shouted: "Wan Kuang Jing Hou?!"
The chamber was very high, and the rope could not hang down to the bottom of the tomb, with a height of nearly three meters. Wen Baiyu saw Wan Jijinghou suddenly let go, jumping down from above, scaring him with his mouth open. Wan Jijinghou landed very lightly.
Just as Wen Baiyu was still in shock, Wan Kuang Jinghou had already wrapped his arms around him, holding him tightly, his arms like iron locks.
Wen Baiyu's hand patted his back with difficulty, and Wan Jingshou let out a gentle sigh, saying: "I won't let you leave my sight for even a moment."
Wen Baiyu felt wronged, but Wan Qi Jinghou looked worried. The two of them just quietly hugged each other when they suddenly heard a "cough cough" behind them. Turning their heads, they found that Jiuling and Donghai had also come down.
Jiuming said: "How come you're so unlucky, we're all fine, just you being dragged around by monsters everywhere, falling from such a high place and nothing happens to you, you're really lucky."
He said, looking around, "Where are those vines?"
Wen Baiyu said: "I don't know either, it just ran suddenly."
Nobody had expected that under this small hole was a huge tomb chamber, and judging from the degree of gold and jade splendor, it should be the main hidden tomb chamber.
Jiuming's eyes were particularly good, pointing at the coffin on the stairs and saying: "Huh? How is there someone sitting on the coffin?"
Wen Baiyu was startled by him and said: "Is there a person pressed on the coffin board?"
Jiu Ming nodded and said: "It's not very clear, but it's definitely a person, and it's a mummy."
Wen Baiyu: "......"
Wan Kuang walked over, and Wen Baiyu hastily followed up.
Wan Qi Jing Hou looked at the stone steps beside the crawling statue and frowned, saying: "It's a human."
Wen Baiyu swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "Buried alive?"
Wan Kuang Jing Hou nodded, and Wen Bai Yu said: "Why are they all women?"
Wan Qi Jing Hou said: "Generally, women's yin energy is heavier, and the tomb owner should be nourishing yin energy."
He said, looking up and saying: "Go up and take a look."
Wen Baiyu pulled him and said: "That dry corpse is sitting on the coffin, isn't it eerie..."
Wan Qi Jing Hou said: "The corpse has been exposed to the air and has long been oxidized, this kind of corpse should not be resurrected."
Wen Baiyu felt relieved after hearing this and followed Wan Jijinghou up the steps.
Everyone went up the stairs, Wen Baiyu was panting and out of breath, just like climbing a mountain.
They walked up to the top floor and now they could see clearly.
A desiccated corpse sat cross-legged on a coffin, the body had completely dried up, leaving only a layer of skin wrapped around the bones, looking like a skull.
Although he was already worn out and his clothes were fragmented due to aging, Wen Baiyu could still make out that there were indeed flame marks on the back of his hand and forehead.
Wen Baiyu said: "Is this also the food that the tomb owner has prepared for himself?"
Wan Xi Jing Hou shook his head and said, "I don't know."
He said that Wen Baiyu had already noticed the dry corpse sitting at the bottom of the coffin, covered with a layer of yellow stuff on top. The thing looked very elastic, but he didn't know what it was.
Wen Baiyu said: "What is this layer on the coffin board? Is it still wrapped with something?"
"Human skin."
"Ah!"
Wen Baiyu was so frightened that she let out a loud cry and said: "How can there still be human skin like this!"
Wan Kuang Jinghou drew out the dragon-scale dagger, and with one slash on the human skin, it instantly split into two pieces, sliding down from the coffin lid to the ground, revealing the inner coffin.
The coffin is extremely luxurious in appearance, with no inscription on it, not a single word.
Wan Kuang Jing Hou walked around the coffin twice and said: "Very strange."
What made Mo Jie's Marquis even more strange was that Wen Baiyu found it even stranger.
"What's wrong?" said Wen Baiyu.
Wan Xi Jinghou pointed to a small protrusion on the coffin and said, "The coffins are generally sealed, and in order to prevent grave robbers, many mechanisms are designed. However, this coffin has no nails, and this latch should be a lock. Pressing it down will open the coffin."
Wen Baiyu said: "Who would let others open their own coffin?"
Wan Xi Jing Hou shook his head, furrowed his brow, and placed the desiccated corpse to the side. He stretched out his hand and gently pressed on the coffin lid, which slowly creaked open with a "creak" sound, revealing the inner coffin.
The coffin inside was actually semi-transparent, and it was unclear what was inside. Wan Zong Jing Hou inserted the dragon-scale dagger into the gap between the coffin lid and gently slid it a few times, saying: "It's not sealed either."
Wan Xi Jing Hou said to Dong Hai: "Lend me a hand."
Donghai and Wanjun Jinghou each grasped one side of the coffin lid, but it was extremely heavy. They both exerted considerable strength, yet they still had to use a lot of effort to open a crack.
"Squeak——"
The coffin lid finally opened a crack.
Jiuming held his breath, waiting to see what was inside. Wen Baiyu stood at a distance, not daring to get too close to the coffin. In case something like a zombie or a mechanism jumped out, he could still run away.
Wen Baiyu watched them pry open the coffin, glanced back at them, and suddenly poked Jiuming, saying: "Don't you think that this mummy..."
He hadn't finished speaking when Jiǔ Mìng said: "Don't scare me!"
Wen Baiyu: "......"
Even smaller than one's own guts!
Wen Baiyu continued: "I'm talking seriously, don't you think this mummy wasn't as close to us just now?"
Jiuming shuddered and said: "No way, he's already decomposed, been destroyed to this extent, how can he possibly be resurrected? You must have seen it wrong."
The corpse was placed on the ground and had indeed been weathered very badly, and was particularly brittle. As soon as it moved, it could not maintain its previous sitting posture, but instead fell to the ground.
Wen Baiyu nervously glanced at the dry corpse twice, and just then, with a crisp "crack", the four corners of the coffin lid finally all pried open, although not sealed tightly, but closed very firmly.
Wen Baiyu's gaze was immediately drawn over, and Wan Kuang Jinghou and Donghai Jiang Gezi pried it open. Although it wasn't completely open yet, the gap was already big enough to see what was inside clearly. In order to prevent the corpse from moving and the mechanism from triggering, the two of them didn't rashly open it all the way.
Looking through the gap, there is no corpse inside at all!
Not even a single hair can be seen on the two dumplings, inside are two things, one is a nine-dragon coiled seal, the seal is entirely blue in color, with a glossy sheen like seawater, similar to the eye color of the East Sea, clear and transparent, on which are carved nine dragons, intricately coiling together.
Next to the big seal was a box, which was tightly closed with a large lock on it. On top of the box were dense black lines that seemed to form a large net covering the box.
Wan Xi Jing Hou took a glance and said: "Kongtong Seal..."
He suddenly said in a low voice, "Not good."
He said, Dong Hai's face also changed color, and the two people suddenly let go. Wan Kuang Jing Hou even patted the coffin lid once, "Huang Long" sound, the coffin lid was instantly buckled tight.
Wen Baiyu and Jiuming looked at each other with unsightly expressions, although they didn't know what had happened, but both were very tense.
Just then, Wen Baiyu felt a chill on his ankle, something grabbed him, he looked down and suddenly let out an "ah!" of fright, scaring the soul out of him.
The corpse lay on the ground, its bony hands grasping his ankle, and suddenly lifted its head, a faint smile spreading from the corner of its mouth.
"Save..."
Wen Baiyu's words only said one word, and the corpse suddenly bounced up from the ground, holding Wen Baiyu's ankle upside down, jumping at least three meters high in one jump, like a flea.
Wen Baiyu was dragged upside down, his ankle twisted in pain, and he heard the sound of rushing wind by his ear. The dry corpse jumped twice, dragging Wen Baiyu with it, while its other bony hand grasped the stone wall. Then, like a gecko, it crawled up the wall, dragging Wen Baiyu along, climbing higher and higher.
As soon as Wen Baiyu looked down, he fainted instantly. To say the least, it was tens of meters high. If the corpse loosened its grip, he would be facing downwards again and would definitely die from the fall.
It all happened in the blink of an eye, Wan Xi Jing Hou's Wen Bai Yu was not far away, but he didn't get close, and the corpse dragged Wen Bai Yu away in an instant.
In that instant, Wan Xi Jing Hou saw the Qingtuan seal in the coffin, and his face suddenly changed color. This was because there was no corpse in the coffin at all, which means that the dry corpse sitting on top of the coffin was the real master, while the person crawling below, Fan Er, and the Qingtuan seal in the coffin were all used by the real master to provide for himself to transform.
Wen Baiyu didn't know where the corpse was going to take him, just as the corpse suddenly stopped and put him on a protruding rock on the stone wall. Wen Baiyu only needed to make a slight movement, and he would fall off the rock.
That mummy seemed to be smiling, but it wasn't a "heh heh" sound, rather a low, husky "hmm... hmm..." with the corners of its mouth curled up in an eerie grin, which was even uglier than crying.
Wen Baiyu noticed that the corpse had shed its skin, and what was once wrapped in flesh and bone now revealed a patch of bright red meat on its face, as if it had no skin at all. All the flesh was exposed, glistening with blood and mucus, emitting a pungent stench that made Wen Baiyu almost faint.
The mummy's skin came off quickly, as if it were being stripped like clothes. The face was completely exposed soon after, and the skin had been peeled off to reveal the bones underneath. Now that flesh has grown back, the face looks thinner but much fuller.
Wen Baiyu's eyes widened, "You..."
This mummy was extremely familiar, and Wen Baiyu was shocked. He had just seen this person, to be exact, he had just dreamed of him after being pulled down by the vines, Wen Baiyu fainted, and during his unconsciousness, he had a dream in which Guoshi kept persuading King Xiang.
That national teacher looks exactly like this mummy!
Wen Bai's eyes widened in surprise as she stared at the desiccated corpse, whose face also showed a hint of astonishment. Then, seemingly understanding something, its mouth opened and closed repeatedly, with eerie laughter echoing from its throat.
"Hmm——hmm……"
"So it was like this...... huh...... huh......"
Wen Baiyu was terrified when he first heard Zongzi speak.
That corpse suddenly pressed down on Wen Baiyu, his hands that had just shed their skin were sharp at the fingertips, and the skull-like fingertips suddenly pointed towards his chest.
"Ah..."
Wen Baiyu let out a loud shout, the pain making him grit his teeth, as the desiccated fingers of the corpse somehow managed to slash at his own chest. In an instant, warm blood gushed out, and from the chest down, a huge gash was torn open, as if trying to rip out Wen Baiyu's heart and lungs.
"It was Yuan Ying... Hmph... Hmph..."
Wen Baiyu couldn't understand what he was saying, his face pale with sweat, his eyes wide open, staring at the dry corpse excitedly cutting open its own chest.
Wen Baiyu's body was covered in blood, and his hands and feet suddenly turned cold. A wave of fear washed over him, and his eyes snapped open as his hands trembled uncontrollably.
"Hah!"
The corpse suddenly let out a loud cry and quickly withdrew its hand, staring incredulously at Wen Baiyu.
Wen Baiyu couldn't see it himself, but the dry corpse saw it very clearly. Wen Baiyu's eyes gradually turned into the color of rubies, as if there was a fire dancing inside. The blood flowing out of his wound was scalding hot and burned the dry corpse's fingers.
Wan Xi Jing Hou's eyes saw the dry corpse dragging away Wen Bai Yu, his eyes filled with uncontrollable fury, he suddenly sprang up, one foot stomping on the coffin, and then jumped up again. With a "slap" sound, both hands slapped against the stone wall, his breathing was rough and disordered, not caring that his fingernails were broken, quickly climbing up along the stone wall.
Wan Qi Jing Hou's hands kept overlapping upwards, his fingers were all bloody, the blood flowed down from his fingers, dripping and falling, staining the stone wall red.
Just as Wan Xi Jing Hou was about two meters away from Wen Bai Yu, he suddenly saw a dry corpse stretch out its hand and slash open Wen Bai Yu's chest. Blood gushed out, and Wen Bai Yu let out a painful groan.
Wan Kuang Jing Hou's eyes were bloodshot, and he quickly climbed up. Just then, a loud "cracking" sound was heard, and it turned out that the coffin on the stone platform was shaking violently, as if something inside was about to burst out.
Jiuming was startled and said: "Is that mummy going to use the Kongtong Seal?!"
Donghai frowned and said: "No, the Cangyun Seal is a thing of water, although it can nourish yin, but apart from replicating images, it doesn't have much use..."
Just as his voice had just fallen, "Boom!" A loud noise, the coffin lid was actually shattered in an instant.
"Ah..."
The shattered stone splashed everywhere, Donghai hugged Jiuming tightly and pressed him into his arms.
Only the lid of the coffin was shattered, and the box inside the coffin suddenly burst out from the inside, as if it had been sucked in, "bang" fell to the ground, and then kept trembling.
"Knock knock knock......knock knock......knock knock......"
The large lock above shook violently, accompanied by a fierce vibration, and with a "click" sound, it shattered. The black net that crisscrossed the box also instantly turned into black powder and fell to the ground.
With a "bang", the box opened and something shot out from inside, rapidly rushing towards the dry corpse and Wen Baiyu.
None of them got a clear look at what it was, and all they could do was shout out in unison: "Watch out!"
The corpse was scorched by Wen Baiyu's blood, letting out a hoarse cry from its throat. In desperation, it grasped Wen Baiyu's neck, wanting to continue tearing open his chest cavity. Just at that moment, a sudden "crack" sound rang out.
The hand grasping Wan Baiyu's neck suddenly loosened its grip, and the corpse's eyes widened. The flame mark on his forehead appeared with a large hole, and the thing that flew out of the box from behind the corpse entered through the back of his head, passing directly through the flame mark and falling into Wan Baiyu's hand.
Wen Baiyu's two eyes were round and intact, lying on the rock, breathing heavily. His hands were clenched into fists, with his right hand grasping something thin, which was the thing that had just pierced through the dry corpse's skull.
"Hah——!"
The corpse let out a loud roar, and suddenly its entire body leaned back, tumbling down the rocks with a "thud" sound, smashing through the bottom of the tomb. The bottom of the tomb was smashed open, and water actually gushed in. In an instant, the corpse disappeared into the water.
"Soft White Feather!"
Wan Xi Jing Hou clung to the edge of the rock, his hands exerting force, and with one jump he sprang up, kneeling on the rock, embracing Wen Bai Yu in his arms.
Wen Baiyu's eyes were still bloodshot, and he muttered: "Wan... Wan Xi Jing Hou..."
He spoke with a weak tone, and General Wan Zonghou pressed down on his chest, saying: "You're bleeding."
Wen Baiyu said: "I thought I was going to be gutted..."
He spoke until the end, his voice was no longer audible, and he fainted with a tilt of his head.
When Wen Baiyu woke up, what he saw was still the ceiling, and he immediately let out a sigh of relief. If he had opened his eyes to see a mummy's face, he would probably have fainted again.
At this moment, Wen Baiyu suddenly "Hmm..." groaned softly, feeling a cool and silky thing sliding across her chest. She stiffened, looked down, and the first thing she saw was a patch of black hair...
Wan Xi Jing Hou was burying his face in his body, lightly licking his chest, that feeling, simply...
Wen Baiyu didn't know how to describe it anymore, his upper body was bare, and his lower body was covered with a quilt. Even so, Wen Baiyu could still feel that under Wan Jingshou's diligent cultivation, he had already... gotten excited.
Wen Baiyu feared that he would discover her excitement, so she quickly went to push him and said: "General Wan, General Wan? Stop... stop it."
Wan Kuang Jing Hou raised his head, and Wen Bai Yu only then saw that there was still a faint scar on his chest, which had not completely faded. The wound seemed to be too deep.
Wan Kuang's face was very bad, seeing Wen Baiyu woke up, his face eased a bit, saying: "Does it still hurt?"
Wen Baiyu hastily shook his head and said, "No, no, it's nothing."
He's not in pain anymore, he's suffering terribly now...
"Have we come out of the grave?"
Wan Kuang's face suddenly turned bad again, and he said faintly: "Hmm, it's been three days since you came out. You've been unconscious for three days."
Wen Baiyu: "......"
Wen Baiyu felt like he was a master of snatching attention!
Wen Baiyu said: "Is the river water all right?"
Wan Qi Jing Hou said: "The Kunlun Seal has been returned to the East Sea, the underground palace has collapsed, and everything is fine now."
He narrowed his eyes, trying to cover up the ferocity in them, and said lightly: "But since no body was found in the river, that mummy is probably already gone."
Wen Baiyu nodded slightly, glanced at the bedside table and saw something on it. It was a long, thin object, sharpened to be very sharp, similar to a dagger, but much thinner than a dagger and without a scabbard.
"What is this?" said Wen Baiyu strangely.
Wan Kuang Jing Hou sighed and said: "You don't even remember?"
"What do you remember?"
Wan Xi Jing Hou said, "This is something in the coffin, packed in a box. When you fainted, your hand was still tightly grasping it, and I had to use a lot of effort to get you to let go."
Wen Baiyu recalled, at that time, he seemed to be holding something in his hand, but he was too exhausted and didn't have time to see what it was. It was this thing that suddenly penetrated the dry corpse's brain from behind.
"Is this a dagger?"
Wan Qi Jing Hou said: "It should be a phoenix bone."
Wen Baiyu's eyes widened, but when Wan Zongjing said the two words "Feng Gu", his left arm's old wound suddenly throbbed with a sharp pain.
Wen Baiyu let out a low "hiss" and Wan Xi Jinghou looked at him tensely, asking: "Is the wound still hurting?"
Wen Baiyu hastily shook his head and said, "Nothing's wrong, nothing's wrong, I'm really fine now. Earlier... earlier it was just a muscle cramp!"
Wan Xi Jing Hou gently stroked Wen Bai Yu's cheek and said, "You get some rest now."
He said, covering Wen Baiyu with a quilt, then got up as if he was going out.
Wen Baiyu grasped his wrist and said: "Where are you going?"
Wan Xi Jing Hou smiled and said: "You've slept for three days, aren't you hungry? I'll go get some food for you."
Wen Baiyu nodded slightly and finally let him go.
Wan Kuang Jing Hou turned around and walked out of the door. As soon as he closed the door, he suddenly let out a sigh.
Donghai happened to come out and see him standing at the door, deep in thought, sighing, smiling and saying: "What's wrong? First time seeing you so troubled."
Wan Xi Jing Hou looked at his own palm, his fingernails were broken, the wound on his fingertips had already healed, but his nails were still broken, and he couldn't help but be distracted, saying: "Wen Bai Yu doesn't know what I am, even I don't know what I am..."
He said, pausing for a moment, "Sometimes I lose control of myself. I feel that one day, Wen Baiyu might be afraid of me."
Donghai laughed and patted Wang Hou's shoulder, saying: "You underestimate Wen Baiyu too much."
Wen Baiyu had rested for several days and his wound had healed, but Wan Jinhou didn't allow him to eat spicy food, saying it was bad for the wound.
Wen Baiyu was almost in tears, what's the point of staying in Chengdu, eating old Beijing clear broth? Without spicy food, life is simply unbearable! Moreover, Wan Kuang Jinghou hugs himself every night and licks his wounds, which have already healed eight hundred times...
Wen Baiyu decided to take a plane back to Beijing, anyway she couldn't eat spicy pot, going home could still make delicious food for herself.
They have already bought their tickets, strangely Dong Hai also wants to follow them to Beijing.
Jiǔ Mìng said with a smirk: "The East Sea is my family's property, of course I'll take it to Beijing."
Wen Baiyu: "......"
Wen Baiyu was speechless for a moment, then said: "But my family doesn't have such a large fish tank. Isn't the East Sea unable to be without water? Beijing is not by the sea, do we have to go to the Summer Palace to sail and swim?"
The next day's newspaper headlines would read: "Royal Garden's Thrilling Thousand-Year Mermaid!"
Just thinking about this scene is too beautiful!
Jiuming said disdainfully: "Isn't there still a bathtub?"
Wen Baiyu thought to himself, his family really didn't want to raise fish!
Everyone got on the plane, and since they last came out of the tomb, Jiǔ Mìng and Dōng Hǎi were literally in a "hot love period". Jiǔ Mìng would occasionally hug Dōng Hǎi to kiss him, making Wēn Bái Yuè's teeth ache. However, despite Dōng Hǎi's cold demeanor, he was extremely accommodating towards Jiǔ Mìng.
They arrived in Beijing at 4 pm and took a taxi home, passing by a small restaurant on the way. Wen Baiyu asked the driver to stop in front of the restaurant.
They haven't come over for a long time, Wen Baiyu pushed the door in, at this awkward time, there were no guests who hadn't eaten yet, the store was quiet, and I don't know where Tangzi went.
Wen Baiyu walked in and was about to call out when he heard a soft sigh, "Hmm...", which seemed to be the voice of Old Rain.
The boss's voice was very small, saying: "Don't come again... Please... I beg of you..."
Tangzi's voice was low and husky as he chuckled, completely lacking in sincerity, but instead giving off a creepy feeling. He laughed and said, "Boss Yu, you're getting hot."
Wen Baiyu: "......"
It's better to die than to live in such a way, under the sun, before it gets dark, restaurants haven't even closed their doors yet, and they've already started doing harmonious exercises!
Wen Baiyu stood at the door, her face flushed red, and coughed softly.
Just then, Yu Wei Yang's voice was heard, "Ah......" a soft cry, trembling and saying: "Someone is coming..."
Tang Zizhen just smiled lightly and said, "It's okay, it's the bosses who have come back."
Wen Baiyu: "......"
Wen Baiyu didn't know what kind of temper she had anymore, and when she heard herself coming in, she still wouldn't stop!
But Wen Baiyu didn't have the face to go see the live version, so he could only take his luggage and head home first.
Xī Chí wasn't there; at a glance, he had gone to look for Zhōng Jiǎn.
Wen Baiyu wanted to go to the bathroom, pushed the bathroom door, and it was actually locked from the inside. Then, the sound of water came from inside, as if someone was taking a bath!
Wen Baiyu thought for a moment and knew that it was Donghai, who had returned earlier, inside. The whole way there hadn't been any water, but as a merman, Donghai would definitely be very fond of seeing water.
But inside came the sound of a cat meowing.
"Meow——" a sharp cry, then the bathroom was like a battlefield, with sounds of " splash, bang!" coming from inside, as if something had fallen to the ground, followed by Jiǔ Mìng's cries: "Ah...... I'm going to drown! I'm going to drown!"
Wen Baiyu: "......"
Wen Baiyu listened from outside, even if his bathtub was filled with water, it's impossible to drown a living person...
Then Jiǔ Mìng shouted again: "Ah...... don't, don't do it here, huh, all are water..."
Wen Baiyu really wanted to cover her face and cry, they were all showing off their love for each other, why did they have to shout so loudly.
Wen Baiyu and Wan Kui Jinghou went to the small restaurant again in the evening, Yu Boss was still there, but didn't do anything harmonious/moving.
Wen Baiyu saw Yu Yang, smiled and greeted him, saying: "Ah, it's been a while since we last met, I think you look much better."
Yu Wei Yang's face turned red in an instant, staring at Wen Bai Yu, he of course knew that Wen Bai Yu was teasing him.
Yu Wei Yang is a ghost pulse, with a deep accumulation of yin energy in his body, and eyes made of blood jade. He himself has limited days left, and his complexion is pale, but now his face not only has a healthy color, but also looks quite spirited.
There is only one reason, naturally it's double cultivation...
Tangzi is a tomb, although it's not the orthodox Fenghuang clan, but the yang energy is very strong, even fierce, which perfectly complements Yu Wei Yang.
Tang Zi saw Wen Baiyu and smiled, saying: "The boss is finally back."
Then he said to Wen Baiyu: "Boss, I'll send Yu Laoban back to Panjia Garden first, and I'll be right back."
Anyway, there aren't many people in the restaurant now, so Wen Baiyu waved her hand and said, "Go ahead, go ahead."
Tang Zi was very happy and went out with Yu Wei Yang together.
Today there weren't many people at the restaurant, Wan Xi Jing Hou started working, and Wen Bai Yu was listlessly standing behind the counter.
His QQ friends list, apart from takeaway customers, are all young girls. After all, Wen Baiyu's first 26 years were straightforward, so chatting with young girls is normal, right?
Someone poked him on QQ, Wen Baiyu himself didn't want to care about it, he now thinks that no one looks as good as Wan Jiahao, this is a kind of sickness...
But he was really bored and just chatted a few sentences casually.
Wan Xi Jing Hou finished serving the dishes and happened to see him flirting with a little girl, casting a faint glance at Wen Bai Yu.
Wen Baiyu quickly covered the computer with her body and said, "Hehe, hehe, oh dear, there aren't many people today. You, you sit down and rest for a while?"
Wan Qi Jing Hou walked over, went around the counter, sat down, and then suddenly pulled Wen Bai Yu down, letting him straddle his own legs. The two people faced each other, and Wen Bai Yu felt that this posture was a bit too proactive?
"What's going on? Hmm?"
"Ah... boring, just casually browsing the news."
Wan Qi Jing Hou raised an eyebrow and said, "News?"
Wen Baiyu nodded desperately, and Wan Jingshou suddenly stretched out his hand to grab his collar, then pressed against his neck, kissing Wen Baiyu's lips.
Wen Baiyu let out an "ah" and was pressed against by Wan Jingshou, whose hand had slipped into his clothes to pinch his lower back and then into his pants...
Wen Baiyu immediately became obedient. In this direction, no one saw them, so she hugged Wan Jingshou's neck and said: "Take your hand out, what if someone sees it."
Wan Qi Jing Hou said faintly: "You won't be in trouble if you don't make a sound."
Just then, the door of the restaurant creaked open and a man wearing a long windbreaker, hat, mask, and sunglasses walked in.
At a glance, he saw the passionately kissing Mo Jing Hou and Wen Bai Yu, instantly scaring him pale, shouting loudly: "Ahh mom, Big Zongzi is here today!"
Wen Baiyu: "......"
The person who came in was naturally a zombie, and when he saw Wan Qi Jing Hou, he was even more frightened with a zombie-like expression. However, instead of running away, he walked in with a heroic determination, knelt down with a "thud" sound.
The zongzi hugged Wen Baiyu's leg and said: "Boss, save me! Boss, save me!"
The restaurant had zongzi, but there were also normal people. Wen Baiyu suddenly felt that this business was simply impossible to do!
Helpless, Wen Baiyu had no choice but to bring this crying and wailing zongzi to the workplace.
Zongzi sat down, still wiping away tears with a wronged expression, saying: "I also had no choice, that's why I came to ask Boss Xiao Ge for help."
Wen Baiyu wiped away his sweat and said, "What do you want from me?"
Zongzi pitifully said: "I previously saw Boss Xiao Ge's restaurant on Dazong Pingwang, and I wanted to try it out, but I heard that Boss Xiao Ge's partner is a very formidable Zongzi, so I didn't dare come... But now I really have no choice, so I can only come to beg Boss Xiao Ge."
What the heck is Dazhongdianping!
Wen Baiyu was speechless for a moment, and Wan Qi Jinghou also sat beside him, with his arms around his knees, gazing at the zongzi with a faint expression.
The rice dumpling hesitated for a moment, then continued: "I originally lived in the deep mountains and old forests because I was a king before my death. I had three wives and four concubines, naturally many of them. Although I wasn't very faithful when I was alive, after my death, I became enlightened. However, my wife remembered the affair with the third mistress for several hundred years and wanted to divorce me. I repeatedly explained myself, but my wife only believed me eventually. But just in these few months, strange things kept happening in the mountains, and the nearby villagers said it was because they had offended me and were afraid of my anger. First, they sent many paper people, all made to look like girls, which immediately made my wife very angry. Before she even calmed down, those villagers came again to stir up trouble - they actually wanted to send a dead person to marry me in the afterlife! Oh, I'm so wronged! I don't know where they found that dead person, dressed in red wedding clothes and buried in the mountains. My wife now refuses to listen to my explanations... I really have no choice but to ask for help. I heard that Boss Xiao has a strong yang energy that can suppress yin energy, so I want to ask him to go with me to dig up the woman who was sent for the ghost marriage. If not, my wife will really divorce me!"
Wen Baiyu listened and her eyelids twitched, saying: "Uh... I think I'll ask you a question first, what is Dazong Pinglun Wang?"
"Wow, this is our zongzi circle's website, we're all registered!"
He said, took out his mobile phone, pressed a few keys, and handed it to Wen Baiyu to see. On the screen was a very high-end PP!

Oh my god!!!! I just risked my life to take this photo!!!! Boss Xiao Ge and Da Zong Zi are back from their visit, and I think Boss Xiao Ge has become even more handsome and charming!!!! The fragrance emanating from his body is even more captivating!!!! That despicable Da Zong Zi, actually monopolizing Boss Xiao Ge, it's simply unbearable for the zong zi!!!!

There is another photo below, which shows Wen Baiyu sitting on Wan Jiahui's lap, with his hands tightly wrapped around Wan Jiahui, his chin slightly raised, his lips slightly open, and his eyes somewhat dazed, as if sighing. Meanwhile, Wan Jiahui looks up at him with a thick smile in his eyes, and his hand is still inserted into Wen Baiyu's clothes.
Wen Baiyu's heart skipped a beat, did she really have such a shameful expression?! This is simply slander! And Wan Qi Jinghou actually smiled so sweetly, his eyes full of tenderness and doting, already sweet to the extreme, making people's old face turn red!
Wan Xi Jing Hou then folded his arms and leaned over to take a look, saying lightly: "The photo doesn't turn out bad."
Wen Baiyu: "......"
