Chapter 129: Blood Amber 3

  Wen Baiyu didn't know how long the anesthetic would last, her body was extremely exhausted, and she felt waves of nausea in her stomach.

  Wen Baiyu opened her eyes, and everything in front of her was a bit dark, she couldn't see anything clearly. She took two deep breaths, and suddenly felt a sharp pain in her lower abdomen, like being pricked by a needle, and also a bit like being twisted. She immediately reached out to press on her lower abdomen, and woke up with a start.

  Wen Baiyu didn't dare take a deep breath again. He was now certain that he had become pregnant once more, which is why his spiritual energy couldn't be used.

  Wen Baiyu lay motionless on the ground, her limbs very loose. She turned her head to look around and saw that a tomb chamber had collapsed halfway. As far as the eye could see, there were only broken stones, blocking everything tightly. They would have to wait for someone to come down from above, but she didn't know how long it would take.

  Wen Baiyu lay down for a while longer, unsure if the anesthetic hadn't worn off yet or if she was just feeling drowsy again, and felt her whole body turn cold.

  The tomb was very dark, but there was a flickering flame, saying long bright lamp...

  Warm white feathers suddenly poked out, and then his back felt cool. He sat up abruptly from the ground, but he clearly remembered that when he fainted just now, this tomb chamber was pitch black and couldn't have had a long-lasting lamp.

  He sat up and saw that the long-lasting lamp in the tomb was really lit, and it was lit beside the coffin. There was a lamp at each of the four corners of the coffin, burning steadily, while the coffin, which had been open just now, was suddenly covered with its lid...

  The white-feathered fox looked suspiciously at the coffin, then glanced around its surroundings.

  Lao Yan is gone, Kang Qingshuo is also gone, and on the ground are two people's luggage, scattered all over the place.

  The white-feathered leg trembled, tried twice but couldn't get up, had to crawl over, pulled the backpack and took a look. Inside were water and food, as well as emergency medical equipment. What was strange was that the backpack was torn open by something sharp, looking very fierce and bloody, with things scattered all over the ground. If it was about finding things, everything inside was essential items, but judging from the capacity of the backpack, nothing should be missing.

  Wen Baiyu pulled out two syringes from the medical bag, looked at the labels, which read "medical anesthetic", and subconsciously touched the needle marks on the back of her neck, which no longer hurt but still felt a bit numb.

  Wen Baiyu tidied up her backpack and put it on her back, wondering how long it would take for Wan Jingshou and the others to come down from above. These things were definitely going to be needed.

  Wen Baiyu tidied up his backpack and cast his gaze on the coffin in the tomb. The coffin looked ordinary, but when he fainted, he clearly saw that it was open, yet now it was closed.

  Wen Baiyu slowly got up, her legs still trembling slightly. She walked forward slowly, cautiously looking at the coffin. She stopped about five or six steps away, and the lantern was still swaying. Wen Baiyu discovered that there were bloodstains on the coffin, and it wasn't completely closed, just loosely covered with the coffin lid.

  Wen Baiyu felt a bit tense, he was now no different from an ordinary person, and because the numbness of the anesthesia had not yet worn off, he was even less capable than an ordinary person. When something happened, he couldn't even run fast, so he definitely couldn't rashly move the coffin.

  However, the coffin material changed while he was unconscious, and it's unclear whether the dumplings had resurrected, and Lao Yan and Kang Qingshu were gone. These two people just fainted, Lao Yan's physique is better than his own, maybe he will wake up before himself, but he didn't move himself, only the coffin material changed, could it be that someone wanted to borrow a knife to kill him?

  Wen Baiyu carefully examined the coffin for a moment without making any sound, then retreated several steps back, fearing that his own aura would summon whatever was inside the coffin.

  Wen Baiyu looked at the tomb path opposite the tomb chamber again, and the tomb path was dark and black. To get away from this unsafe coffin, he had to enter the tomb path, but what was in the tomb path, would there be other coffins and zombies? Wen Baiyu couldn't be sure. Moreover, if he left the tomb chamber, Wan Jinghou and others would come down and wouldn't be able to find him.

  She thought for half a day, Wen Baiyu took out the flashlight from her backpack and searched for half a day, but still couldn't find anything to defend herself. Maybe these things should have been carried by Lao Yan himself, but now Lao Yan was nowhere to be found.

  Wen Bai's hand grasped the flashlight tightly, as the anesthetic effect had not yet worn off, causing his legs to feel numb. He slowly sat down before the coffin stopped moving, at least he was safe for now, and he would wait as long as it took.

  Wen Baiyu sat alone, her eyes fixed on the coffin, which remained motionless. She felt a bit sleepy but couldn't fall asleep. She took out food from her backpack, but due to her physical discomfort and the effects of the anesthetic, she really couldn't eat anything. However, her stomach was growling with hunger, and not eating was not an option.

  Wen Baiyu ate something, but seemed to feel even more sleepy, and his whole body felt cold, as if he couldn't hold on anymore. His body swayed and fell to the ground, his head tilted, his eyes still fixed tightly on that coffin, his eyelids getting heavier and heavier until he finally fell asleep.

  Wen Baiyu slept restlessly, he dreamed that in front of him was a kiln, the kiln mouth cracked open, and headless corpses rushed out from inside. Wen Baiyu ran desperately, running non-stop, but couldn't see anything. Wan Qi Jinghou didn't know where he was, all he could do was keep running. His stomach hurt from running so much, when suddenly a wolf appeared in front of him...

  The wolf's eyes in the dark night are deep blue, shining with a cold light...

  Wen Baiyu let out a "huh——" and gasped for breath, suddenly waking up from her nightmare. Her forehead was covered in sweat, she didn't know if it was because she had been running in her sleep, but she felt even more exhausted.

  Wen Baiyu took two deep breaths and looked around at the rubble in the tomb, but there was no movement or sound, and he had no idea what had happened to Wan Kuangjing and the others.

  Wen Baiyu turned her head to look at the coffin, her heart skipped a beat, and cold sweat broke out. The long-lasting lamp beside the coffin was still lit, but the lid of the coffin was actually askew.

  Wen Baiyu didn't know how long she had slept, it shouldn't be very long, but the lid of the coffin had changed again, revealing a not-so-small gap.

  Wen Baiyu slowly got up, the anesthetic effect should have worn off, and she had some strength in her body. She didn't know if it was because the floor was too cold, but Wen Baiyu felt a bit chilly. She touched her forehead, but couldn't tell if she had a temperature.

  Wen Baiyu slowly walked over, vigilantly looking at the coffin. The lid of the coffin moved and opened a crack, revealing what was inside.

  The first thing he saw was his neck, without a head!

  Wen Baiyu immediately held her breath, and to her surprise, there was no head, exactly the same as the mural she had seen before. Could it be a coffin or a sacrificial material?

  Wen Baiyu's gaze continued downward, the bloody neck, was still bleeding? The fresh blood was still a bit fresh?

  Wen Baiyu was even more surprised. What kind of corpse is this, how long has it been preserved, and the blood is still so fresh? This is also too unbelievable, too eerie.

  As she looked down further, Wen Baiyu couldn't help but narrow her eyes. The corpse was wearing clothes, a windbreaker with many pockets on the upper garment, not ancient clothing. And this windbreaker seemed very familiar, as if...

  It looks like Lao Yan's clothes.

  Wen Baiyu let out a "hiss——" and took a deep breath, startled, staring with wide eyes to take a closer look. Indeed, the person in the coffin was Old Yan, but Old Yan had lost his head, leaving only a bloody neck and torso. The clothes and shoes were absolutely right!

  Wen Bai's neck felt a bit chilly, and he didn't know what had happened when he fainted. Lao Yan, who was also drugged like him, had his head chopped off and thrown into a coffin?

  Nor does it seem like cutting off one's head...

  Such a wound should be caused by tearing and biting. Lao Yan's body also had blood, and there was a lot of blood, with tooth marks, and he should have been bitten too.

  Wen Baiyu suddenly remembered the nightmare from earlier...

  Wolf?

  Wen Baiyu was staring at the coffin, lost in thought, when suddenly there was a rustling sound, like the friction of clothes. Wen Baiyu immediately became alert and looked around cautiously. Again, there was another rustling sound, but this time it came from inside the coffin!

  Wen Baiyu was startled and took two steps back, his body swaying slightly. He saw that the old man in the coffin was actually moving, although very slowly. His blood-covered hands were slowly lifting up, but without a head, he couldn't see anything, so there was no accuracy to his movements. After pushing several times, he finally managed to push the coffin lid open a bit.

  The coffin lid was pushed open, and Old Yan immediately sat up.

  Wen Baiyu immediately covered his mouth and nose, not letting the resurrected Zongzi smell his blood, and retreated several steps back.

  Wen Baiyu wanted to sneak out of the tomb, but after the cat walked a few steps with its waist down, Lao Yan had already crawled out of the coffin. As soon as he came out, his crawling speed was much faster than when he was in the coffin. "Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh" - he quickly crawled on the ground, just like a large lizard.

  Wen Baiyu tensed up and suddenly retreated, but didn't dare to make any big moves. Lao Yan surprisingly quickly crawled towards him, as if he had caught wind of the bloody smell emanating from Wen Baiyu's body.

  Wen Baiyu's face turned pale, she held her breath, and at this moment, a severe pain suddenly struck her abdomen, causing Wen Baiyu to double over in agony. It felt like something was being pulled out of her body, her legs trembled violently as she slowly crouched down, clutching her stomach, leaning against the tomb wall, and gazing intently at Old Yan who was rapidly crawling towards her.

  Lao Yan crawled over, soon hitting the tomb wall beside him. The blood on his neck was still fresh, and with one hit, fresh blood splattered everywhere, splashing onto Wen Baiyu's face.

  Wen Baiyu suddenly closed her eyes tightly, immediately wanting to take a deep breath, but she tried hard to hold it back, covering her mouth and nose without moving.

  Because Old Yan bumped into the wall, he immediately retreated from beside the tomb wall and pulled away from Wen Baiyu a little, his bloody neck almost rubbing against Wen Baiyu as he crawled past.

  Wen Baiyu looked at that bloody neck, her eyelashes twitched twice, her throat wanted to roll over, almost vomiting, she endured the slow closure of her eyes, her stomach was still aching, cold sweat kept flowing down, rolling into her eyes, it was a bit painful, but she couldn't move, couldn't breathe.

  Lao Yan crawled past Wen Baiyu's side, seemingly completely unaware of Wen Baiyu's existence, as if Wen Baiyu was just a tomb wall.

  After Old Yan crawled past, he didn't look back and instead continued crawling deeper into the tomb passage. As he walked, the foul-smelling blood slowly hid in the dark tomb passage.

  Wen Baiyu finally let out a breath of relief, suddenly going limp and leaning against the tomb wall with her head thrown back, taking deep breaths. Her stomach still hurt, she was sweating profusely, but she couldn't lift her hand to wipe it away. She could smell the stench from her nose, her throat kept convulsing, covering her mouth, dry heaving several times.

  Just then, Wen Baiyu heard a rapid movement sound of "shasha... shasha..."

  Lao Yan suddenly turned his head and came back, quickly crawling in the direction of Wen Baiyu.

  Wen Bai's white-haired head sprang up, and he immediately scrambled to his feet, covering his mouth and nose. Old Yan hesitated for a moment, but still crawled towards him.

  Wen Baiyu's heart skipped a beat, and she didn't dare stay any longer. She couldn't care less about her stomachache, and took off running immediately.

  Lao Yan seemed to have sensed Wen Baiyu's presence and rushed towards her fiercely.

  Lao Yan rushed over, Wen Baiyu's legs went soft and he fell to the ground. Subconsciously, he bounced up and continued running. Lao Yan pounced on him at this time, pinning Wen Baiyu to the ground. Because he had no head, he couldn't bite or make a sound, so he frantically choked Wen Baiyu's neck.

  "With a 'ripping' sound, the collar of Wen Baiyu's clothes was torn apart, and a claw scratched against her collarbone. The pain made Wen Baiyu let out a 'hiss', and she wondered what had happened to Old Yan later, whether his hands would be poisonous or not."

  Wen Baiyu was pressed to the ground, his elbow bent and suddenly struck backwards, immediately flipping over, both legs kicked out, Lao Yan's body flew back violently, Wen Baiyu borrowed strength to scramble up from the ground, his stomach even more painfully cramped.

  Wen Baiyu stretched out his hand to support the tomb wall, picked up the flashlight on the ground, and Lao Yan rushed towards him again. Wen Baiyu grasped the flashlight and swung it, making a loud "bang" sound as he struck Lao Yan's neck, splashing blood everywhere, including onto Wen Baiyu's face.

  Wen Baiyu wiped his face while quickly rushing towards the tomb path, looking down at the flashlight in his hand. The light flickered for a moment and made a "zzt" sound, and to his surprise, the glass cover of the flashlight was shattered, but it still worked.

  Wen Baiyu rushed into the tomb passage, and Lao Yan seemed to be stunned, rolling on the ground. After a while, he quickly crawled in towards the tomb passage.

  Wen Baiyu rushed into the tomb passage without stopping, quickly running forward, thinking that it was really bad luck. Originally wanted to wait for Wan Kuang Jing Hou and others to come down, now it's good, can only run forward, don't know where to run to.

  Wen Baiyu grasped the flashlight and ran quickly, the white light of the flashlight shining one by one in the tomb passage. The murals on the walls of the tomb passage were red, large areas of bright red, which felt like blood under the illumination of the white light.

  Ran for an unknown distance, Wen Baiyu's legs went numb, like they were filled with lead, feeling not his own, couldn't run anymore, legs trembling violently, still able to hear the "shasha" sound behind him, Lao Yan seemed relentless in pursuit.

  Suddenly a tomb appeared in front of him, Wen Baiyu rushed in and looked around, but there was no coffin in the tomb, only many stone tablets with murals painted on them.

  The two large doors of the tomb, Wen Baiyu rushed in and pushed one of the doors shut with great force, then went to push the other. At this moment, a bloody neck suddenly appeared in front of Wen Baiyu, who let out a loud "Ah!" and almost fell to the ground. Old Yan was frantically crashing into the tomb door, while Wen Baiyu's hands were shaking violently, already exhausted to the extreme, using all his strength to close the other large door, making a loud "Bang!" sound, trapping Old Yan outside.

  Wen Baiyu could still hear the "thud! thud!" sound, and Old Yan seemed to be persistently knocking on the door.

  Although there was no door bolt or anything like that on the door, it looked very solid. Wen Baiyu let out a sigh of relief and leaned against the door to sit down, exhausted, stretching out her hand to press on her abdomen, with wave after wave of intense trembling.

  Wen Baiyu reached out to touch his neck, wincing in pain, "Ah..." He took out antiseptic and gauze from his backpack, disinfected the wound, and then applied a band-aid. However, the location of the wound was constantly being rubbed by his clothes, which still hurt a bit.

  Wen Baiyu treated his own wound, paralyzed on the ground, feeling his face extremely hot, not knowing if it was because of running desperately earlier, cold sweat kept flowing down.

  Wen Baiyu panted and rested for a while, the scene in front of her blurred, narrowing her eyes to take in the situation inside the tomb.

  The tomb is very spacious, but there are countless stone tablets standing upright, with many offerings beside them, I don't know what they are used for.

  Wen Baiyu narrowed her eyes to look at those stone tablets, on which there were words, but Wen Baiyu couldn't understand them. There were also paintings, the paintings were very simple, but they were painted very vividly, and a few strokes brought out the spirit.

  Wen Bai Yu stood up with a sigh, walked slowly over, found a place to sit down, and went to look at those stone tablets.

  The main tone of the monument is also red. The first stone monument painted many women, to be exact, it should be beauties.

  Those women's figures were all slender and elegant, standing in rows one by one. Although Wen Baiyu couldn't understand the words, she could tell that this was a selection process.

  As expected, in the second picture, the number of women decreased, leaving only a few. The treatment of these selected women was extremely good, with people serving their daily lives and food, and even eating meals just by opening their mouths.

  The third picture is a sacrificial painting, with many people depicted in it. The scene is very grand, and they are sacrificing a white wolf.

  The white wolf's physique is extremely lean, and the warm white feathers can be seen, this white wolf must be a god of the tribe. The stone monument has a lot of writing on it, and the white wolf is even several times larger than humans.

  Those beauties selected were actually sacrificial offerings, offered as sacrifices to the White Wolf.

  The fourth picture is of these women being offered to the White Wolf, and their fate was extremely tragic. Some had their heads bitten off by the White Wolf, with blood everywhere, while those who were not bitten on the head had to mate with the White Wolf.

  The scene was too bloody, Wen Baiyu couldn't help but frown, the white wolf's body was so big, those selected women looked young, just maidens, even if they didn't bite their heads off, they probably wouldn't be able to withstand it.

  The fifth picture is a young woman giving birth, some of whom give birth to a wolf, some give birth to an infant, and some give birth to half-human, half-wolf children.

  There is a sixth picture that continues, some of whom are dressed strangely and should be tribal priests, who baptized these children and then put them in bamboo baskets and threw them into the forest.

  Wen Baiyu looked at this painting and could already imagine the scene of the next painting.

  As expected, the seventh painting is also a selection. These children were thrown into the forest and were still so young that when they cried out, they would be carried away by wild beasts, some trampled to death, others eaten by wolves, their brains devoured, or their hearts dug out. This itself was another form of selection.

  The eighth picture is a boy who has walked out of the forest, and this selection is over. People, along with the priest, kneel in front of him. This boy should be their new leader, or perhaps the White Wolf of the tribe. Then there will be a cyclical selection to offer him beautiful women.

  Wen Baiyu thought it was over when he got here, but there was still the ninth stone tablet. And to his surprise, the ninth stone tablet was empty.

  There was nothing painted on the stone tablet, and nothing was carved. It just stood there. Wen Baiyu didn't know what this stone tablet meant. Looking at the fine workmanship of several other stone tablets, this one shouldn't be uncarved.

  Wen Baiyu reached out and touched the stone tablet. It was very flat and had no carvings or marks on it, so why?

  Wen Baiyu circled around the stone monument twice, both sides of the monument were empty, without a single word engraved.

  Wen Baiyu shone his flashlight on the stone tablet and didn't find anything. He stretched out his hand to knock on it, and it was solid, not hollow.

  After such a long time, Wen Baiyu gradually felt better in his stomach and had some strength, so he stretched out his hand to hug the stone tablet and turned it with force. He just wanted to try it out, but unexpectedly, the stone tablet really moved, and with a twist of his wrist, it immediately made a "click" sound, as if it was a mechanism.

  Wen Baiyu was slightly surprised, using all his strength to twist the stone tablet. The stone tablet was slowly twisted by Wen Baiyu ninety degrees, and a large door suddenly cracked open on the tomb wall opposite the gate of the tomb.

  Wen Baiyu shone her flashlight at the dark/black big gate, inside was pitch black/dark, didn't know where it led to.

  Wen Baiyu hesitated for a moment. What if Wan Yiqing and the others came down? But running around like this, they probably wouldn't be able to find her anyway.

  Lao Yan continued to knock on the door outside, seemingly tireless. Wen Baiyu thought for a long time and although the tomb door was sturdy, it didn't have a door bolt. She had no idea when Lao Yan would break in. With her own lack of spiritual energy and aching stomach, she'd have to flee for her life at that point.

  Wen Baiyu took out her backpack and looked around, but didn't find anything that could be used as a marker. She tore off a piece of gauze, tied a knot in it, and stuck it to the rotating stone stele with adhesive tape. This way, she could at least leave a mark for people behind her, indicating which direction she had gone.

  Wen Baiyu tied the silk fabric into a knot and stuck it firmly, then turned on her flashlight and crawled through the dark cave entrance.

  Behind the big gate, there were no murals at all, it was like a dark tunnel, and not very wide. Wen Baiyu couldn't describe what this feeling was, it was narrow and cramped here, and there was a musty smell in the air.

  It feels like being stuck in a chimney...

  Wen Baiyu walked very slowly, after all, he was alone now. He turned on his flashlight and took out the phoenix bone dagger from his pocket. He felt that next time, he couldn't use the flashlight to smash things again, or else it would be broken and there wouldn't be any lighting tools left.

  Wen Baiyu walked slowly forward, the tunnel was very dull, there was nothing, and it was a long road. Wen Baiyu had been walking for about ten or twenty minutes, stopped to look ahead, which was bottomless, looked back, all black, and began to doubt whether he had made the right choice by entering here earlier.

  Having walked so deep, not going forward anymore seems a bit off. The road behind is also very long. If we retreat further back, we'll still have to meet the resurrected Old Yan.

  Wen Baiyu walked forward while thinking randomly, his mind constantly flashing back to the stone tablet he saw earlier, then to Lao Yan without a head, and finally to Kang Qingshuo who disappeared for no reason.

  Wen Baiyu thought to herself, perhaps Kang Qingshuang also encountered an unexpected event. After all, Kang Qingshuang and Lao Yan wanted to capture her. They said that in the forked road, there were actually murals, which was a method to break the curse, requiring someone to make sacrifices. Was it to sacrifice that layered selection of wolf gods?

  Wen Baiyu had never seen such a mural and didn't know what it depicted. Both she and Lao Yan were poisoned, while Kang Qingshu was knocked unconscious. If Kang Qingshu woke up first, she would definitely use Wen Baiyu as a sacrifice, no reason to use Lao Yan, after all, Lao Yan was also her lover, the two of them were originally going to be partners.

  However, the strange thing is that Lao Yan died and was still lying in his coffin, but he himself was fine, and Kang Qingshu had disappeared. Therefore, Wen Baiyu felt that Kang Qingshu must have encountered some accident.

  Wen Baiyu's legs were a bit tired from walking. The pitch-black tunnel didn't know where it led to. Had he walked from the tomb passage to the mine pit again?

  If it were a mine shaft, that would be okay, maybe I'd meet Wang Qi Jing Hou, but this tunnel, although without murals, was also very carefully polished and didn't feel as rough as a mine shaft.

  Wen Baiyu walked for a long time, suddenly heard the sound of "squeak-squeak-squeak" behind her back, startled Wen Baiyu, and then a gust of wind came from behind her back, taking things seemed to be moving very fast, quickly sweeping over.

  Wen Baiyu subconsciously squatted down, covering his head with his hands, and suddenly felt a tug on the backpack behind him. The thing had grabbed onto his backpack and pulled upwards. Since Wen Baiyu was wearing the backpack on both shoulders, the thing couldn't pull it off, but it did manage to yank Wen Baiyu into a stumble, almost causing him to fall to the ground.

  The thing immediately left his hand and flew over Wen Baiyu, standing not far away and staring at him.

  Wen Baiyu looked up and found it was a monkey!

  That monkey looks very mischievous, I don't know if it's the yellow-skinned big monkey from outside the mine pit, its head is not small, standing upright with its upper body, scratching its ears and cheeks as it stares at Wen Baiyu, seemingly wanting to snatch Wen Baiyu's backpack.

  Wen Bai watched the monkey with a stern expression, thinking to herself that no matter what, she couldn't let herself be bullied by a mere monkey. Moreover, her backpack contained food, water, and medicine; if the monkey were to snatch it away, she would truly be left to die on the spot.

  The monkey saw Wen Baiyu's vigilance, feeling quite clever, and stood still with Wen Baiyu. Wen Baiyu's eyes flashed, and her heart suddenly thumped wildly.

  When you just entered the tomb, there were only some offerings inside except for the stone tablet. The offerings were not big and it was impossible to hide such a large monkey. The monkey must not be in the tomb.

  Now, a monkey has caught up from behind and climbed in front of itself, that is to say the door of the tomb chamber has been opened, and Lao Yan will probably crawl in too!

  Wen Baiyu thought so, as if to confirm that his thoughts were correct. Suddenly, a faint rustling sound came from behind him, and it was actually Old Yan quickly crawling towards him, like a ghostly presence that wouldn't disperse.

  Wen Baiyu didn't have time to tangle with the monkey, so he suddenly ran two steps forward and waved his hand holding a dagger to drive the monkey away.

  The monkey was suddenly pounced on by him and scared, quickly jumping to one side. Wen Baiyu took advantage of the situation and rushed past from the side, then quickly ran forward.

  The monkey seemed to realize that Wen Baiyu was going to escape, and immediately chased after her, using both hands and feet to run forward, pouncing on Wen Baiyu's backpack and scratching wildly at it.

  Wen Baiyu was about to die, but a monkey actually climbed onto his body and started causing trouble. However, Wen Baiyu couldn't use his spiritual power and didn't have time to deal with the monkey. The monkey thought Wen Baiyu was afraid of it and chattered "Squeak - squeak -" as it snatched Wen Baiyu's flashlight and smashed it against the tunnel wall.

  The flashlight made a "pop" sound and the glass on top shattered completely. The white light flashed and dimmed significantly, but it could still be used with difficulty.

  The rustling sound behind was getting closer and closer, perhaps because the smell of corpses and blood was too great, the monkey also smelled it, immediately exploded its hair, "squeak-squeak", cried out loudly, threw away the flashlight, and rushed into the depths of the tunnel.

  Wen Baiyu hastily picked up the flashlight and was about to run forward when he heard a monkey let out a blood-curdling scream, followed by the sound of splattering blood and continuous wailing. The screaming stopped after two seconds.

  Wen Baiyu saw a pair of deep blue eyes shining in the dark tunnel.

  It's a wolf!

  It's exactly like the wolf eyes I saw in my dream, and there's actually a wolf in front of me. I don't know if it's the wolf god that this tribe worships, but it bit the monkey to death directly.

  This is a dead end, can't run forward anymore, there's a wolf in front and also dumplings behind.

  After a slight hesitation, the old Yan behind had caught up and pounced on Wen Baiyu, knocking him to the ground. Wen Baiyu crashed into the earth, his stomach suddenly hurting severely, cold sweat pouring down "whoosh——", grasping the Fengguui dagger, stabbing it down fiercely.

  Lao Yan's body emitted intense tremors, suddenly releasing Wen Baiyu, but seemed to become even more furious, continuing to grab Wen Baiyu. Wen Baiyu's flashlight rolled out and just at that moment, it went "pop" and directly went out.

  The surroundings were pitch black, and Old Yan pounced on him again. In a fit of rage, he wildly scratched at Wen Baiyu's body, "Whoosh!" He scratched Wen Baiyu's face, and Wen Baiyu felt a burning pain. Old Yan was like a zombie in the movies, fortunately, he had no head, so he couldn't bite himself.

  Wen Baiyu used a spoon to hit Lao Yan several times, but Lao Yan was still in a frenzy. Wen Baiyu couldn't take it anymore and her stomach hurt so much that she felt like dying. She stretched out her hand to feel around, wanting to find the flashlight to light up the surroundings, but instead found a syringe.

  Wen Baiyu grasped the syringe, discovering it was an anesthetic from the backpack. Lao Yan rushed over again, and Wen Baiyu immediately wrapped her legs around his arm, preventing him from struggling. Then she stretched out her hand and injected all the syringes into Lao Yan's body, quickly administering the liquid.

  The anesthetic took some time to take effect, but due to the large dose, Lao Yan was still in a daze, his body no longer under his control, and he finally collapsed onto the ground.

  Wen Baiyu panted "hū——hū——", exhausted, his head covered in sweat, just wanting to collapse on the ground, but suddenly remembered there was still a wolf ahead.

  Wen Baiyu crawled up, grasping the flashlight and shaking it several times, pressing the switch back and forth. No matter how he tried, the flashlight had already made a heroic sacrifice and couldn't emit even a single ray of light.

  If it were before, Wen Baiyu would have lit the fire himself to illuminate, but now he can't use it, so he has to hold the phoenix bone dagger and stand up, vigilantly looking ahead. Wen Baiyu held on for a minute, but the blue light in the wolf's eyes never appeared again.

  Wen Baiyu slowly moved forward, took a few steps, and smelled a strong bloody smell. The yellow-skinned big monkey was already dead, its body on the ground in the tunnel, its neck bitten off, its head fallen to the ground. Wen Baiyu felt dizzy and nauseous, covering her mouth with all her might, almost vomiting.

  Wen Baiyu no longer went to see that big monkey, and hurriedly walked a few steps forward. It was pitch black, and nothing could be seen.

  Wen Baiyu took two deep breaths, then continued walking forward. After a few steps, she found a black lump on the ground. Without a flashlight, she had to walk closer to see it clearly. Wen Baiyu walked cautiously forward, and after two more steps, she discovered that the black lump was not one thing, but many.

  In front of the ground, there was a corpse that had turned into white bones. The white bones were surrounded by a group of things, and a swarm of cicadas fell on the white bones, as if searching for the last food.

  Wen Baiyu sucked in a breath, "Huh——" He didn't know if these cicadas were the blood cicadas mentioned earlier. If they were, wouldn't he, a living person, become their target?

  Wen Baiyu hastily retreated two steps, but it was already too late. A cicada flew up from the ground and charged towards Wen Baiyu. With a swift swing of his dagger, the cicada's wings were sliced off, and it hid in a place not far from Wen Baiyu.

  And then it was like a switch had been flipped, the other cicadas on the tree began to stir, Wen Baiyu suddenly got goosebumps all over his body, seeing large groups of cicadas rushing towards him.

  Wen Baiyu's instincts made him retreat, and at this moment, the sound of "thud thud thud..." came from behind, as if something was rushing towards his back at a rapid speed.

  Wen Baiyu was simply unavoidable, and with a single mention of spiritual energy, he couldn't muster it up at all. His abdomen was in severe pain, hurting so much that his whole body was sweating, cold sweat rolling down from his forehead.

  A cicada with a complete shell made a "zhi, zhi, zhi" sound and flew towards Wen Baiyu. Wen Baiyu stretched out his hand to block it, and the sound behind him also got closer. A strong white light suddenly shone over, and because the light was too intense, Wen Baiyu subconsciously closed his eyes.

  A hand suddenly landed on Wen Baiyu's waist, then quickly pulled him back two steps. Just as he heard a "whooshing" sound, Wen Baiyu felt a fierce heat and opened his eyes to see that it was actually Wan Qi Jing Hou.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou stretched out his hand and wrapped it around him, the fire essence in the palm of his right hand lit up, and a piece of blood bat flew over, immediately turning into a moth that flapped towards the fire, "plop plop" all fell to the ground, each one burned to a crisp.

  Wen Baiyu let out a breath of relief and her body suddenly went limp. Wan Qi Jinghou was startled and hastily said, "Baiyu?"

  Wen Baiyu couldn't say a word, and there was still some blood on the white bones that hadn't had time to fly over. At this moment, it also "squeaked" and flew up, rushing towards the two again. Suddenly, with a "whoosh", a pair of white wings unfolded, small feathers flying out from behind, arms akimbo, then opening its mouth and spewing out a huge flame.

  The remaining blood cicadas were also burned clean, all fell on the upper and lower feathers, spitting out fire, and "coughing" a few times, as if choked, Xiaoxue Hua hurriedly patted his back.

  Wen Baiyu looked a bit tired, and Wan Jingshou supported him to sit down. Wan Jingshou's forehead was covered in sweat, and his breathing sounded like "huffing and puffing", as if he had just gone through intense exercise. His arm had some bloodstains, and his body was covered in blood, which seemed to have splashed onto him. It was unclear what had happened, but Wan Jingshou looked at Wen Baiyu with a worried face.

  Wan Jie Jing Hou checked on Wen Bai Yu's situation, and Wen Bai Yu didn't know if it was because he had relaxed or not, but his body felt extremely fatigued, however the pain in his stomach had already subsided. Wan Jie Jing Hou gently touched the wound on Wen Bai Yu's face, and Wen Bai Yu let out a faint "hiss".

  Wan Jie Jing Hou immediately lowered his head and kissed the wound on Wen Bai Yu's body. Wen Bai Yu shuddered, feeling Wan Jie Jing Hou extend his tongue to gently lick the bleeding area. The warm sensation was a bit numbing and stinging, but it quickly stopped hurting, and the wound probably healed too.

  At this time, voices came from the tunnel again. Guan Nan and Xue Su, as well as Xiao Chui Long holding an egg, rushed over quickly.

  Guan Nan was panting heavily, sweating profusely, and everyone's body had blood on it. Although they didn't know what had happened, it was definitely a tricky situation.

  Dan immediately burst into tears when he saw Wen Baiyu, and rubbed his face against Wen Baiyu's, his tears dripping down and coincidentally healing the wound on Wen Baiyu's neck.

  Wen Baiyu was extremely exhausted, his eyelids heavy, and Wan Jiahui picked him up horizontally, saying softly: "If you're tired, rest, I'll carry you."

  Wen Baiyu didn't even have the strength to nod her head, and she let out a soft "uh-huh" in her throat before quickly falling into darkness.

  His body felt dizzy, probably because of Wan Jie Jing Hou carrying him, and he didn't know how long it took before the dizziness stopped. Perhaps because Wan Jie Jing Hou was by his side, Wen Bai Yu didn't have another nightmare this time, and his body also relaxed a lot.

  I don't know how long I slept, but when I opened my eyes, there was a faint light in front of me, which was the light from the flashlight. Everyone was still in the tunnel, but it was obviously not the same section as before. There were no corpses of blood clams on the ground, nor any monkey corpses, and of course, no Lao Yan's headless ghost either.

  Everyone leaned against the tunnel wall to rest, and Wan Xi Jing Hou sat with his head slightly tilted back, eyes closed in rest. His entire facial features looked perfectly three-dimensional, with every contour clearly visible.

  Wen Baiyu was lying on his legs, and he didn't know if Wan Kuang Jing Hou was afraid that he would suddenly wander off again. One hand was wrapped around Wen Baiyu's shoulder, as if making a protective gesture, while the other hand tightly grasped Wen Baiyu's hand.

  Wen Baiyu just opened his eyes, didn't move at all, and Wan Jingshou immediately went forward, lowered his head, and met Wen Baiyu's eyes. Wen Baiyu saw that there were many bloodshot eyes in his eyes, looking very tired.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou chuckled and said, "Awake? What are you spacing out for? If you're tired, sleep a bit longer. The others haven't woken up yet."

  After a good sleep, I feel like I've slept more soundly, and my physical strength has recovered. It's as if I'm fully rejuvenated.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou saw that he wasn't sleeping, so he bent his legs and propped up Wen Bai Yu's body, wrapping his arms around him and pulling him into a hug. He leaned in close to Wen Bai Yu's ear and took a deep breath, his voice husky as he asked, "Don't you miss me?"

  Wen Baiyu felt a bit embarrassed, half-reclining and half-leaning in Wang Ju's arms, feeling quite comfortable, and couldn't help but adjust her posture to lie more comfortably.

  Wen Baiyu didn't speak, and Wan Xi Jinghou tightly hugged him, whispering: "I saw the mark you stuck on the stone tablet, I almost died from anxiety."

  Wan Jie Jing Hou said, lowering his head, his eyes very deep, staring into Wen Bai Yu's eyes, gently covering Wen Bai Yu's lips, kissing him extremely tenderly. Wen Bai Yu's throat rolled once, and he felt a little itchy from being kissed, unable to help but reach out and hug Wan Jie Jing Hou's shoulders.

  As soon as Wen Baiyu moved, it seemed like a switch had been flipped, and Wan Jingshou's kiss immediately became violent, revealing a sense of anxiety and aggression. It wildly swept across Wen Baiyu's lips, extending its tongue to wrap around Wen Baiyu's tongue, the feeling was as if he wanted to devour Wen Baiyu whole.

  Wen Baiyu's nose made a soft "hmm" sound, almost unable to breathe, but she felt Wan Jingshou's anxiety, as if it was contagious, and tightly hugged his shoulders and neck, actively sucking on the tip of his tongue.

  Wen Baiyu's lips and tongue were numb, his tongue root was sour, the two of them had kissed for a long time, Wen Baiyu felt like he was going to suffocate, suddenly his stomach hurt, "Ah..." he let out a sound, Wan Qi Jinghou immediately let go of him, saying: "What's wrong? Where are you hurt?"

  Wen Baiyu shook her head, still feeling a bit dizzy in her mind. Wan Qi Jinghou's kiss was really too infectious, making Wen Baiyu's head swell and also having some feelings below. She guessed it was just too exciting, now her stomach hurts a bit, relax and it will be fine.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou saw Wen Bai Yu's subconscious hand on his abdomen and was slightly surprised, saying: "Bai Yu?"

  Wen Baiyu actually only confirmed that she was pregnant again after falling down, and it's estimated that Wan Jingshou still doesn't know. However, when Wen Baiyu fainted, Wan Jingshou examined her body and found that her spiritual energy was off, thinking she was injured, but didn't expect that she was really pregnant.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou's mouth corners rose, with a somewhat excited look, and his cold, perfect face suddenly looked radiant. Wen Bai Yu's eyes were almost blinded by the sight, and her heart skipped two beats.

  Wan Qi Jinghou immediately took out a quilt from his backpack and covered Wen Baiyu, saying: "Baiyu? What's wrong? Stomach ache?"

  Wen Baiyu shook her head, no longer feeling any pain. The tunnel was warm and she had already covered herself with a quilt, adding another one made her sweat profusely, but it wasn't like she was in confinement after childbirth...

  Wen Baiyu looked at him with a pleased expression and said, "You like children so much?"

  Wan Xi Jing Hou smiled and kissed Wen Bai Yu's ear, saying: "I only like you."

  Wen Baiyu's old face turned red, and then he heard Wan Jingshou say: "Growing up to look like you, how lovely."

  Wen Baiyu's gaze swept over the little ones, and the small feathers' appearance was delicate and beautiful, looking very gentle. However, most of them looked like Wan Qi Jinghou, with Egg/Egg almost being a carbon copy of Wan Qi Jinghou. The only one who looked like himself was Xiao Chonglong, but... Xiao Chonglong seemed to be born without any connection to cuteness, having a strong CEO aura since he was little, and now he's so suave that it's hard to look straight at him.

  Wan Qi Jing Hou said: "After waking up from sleep, do you want to eat something?"

  Wen Baiyu had been in a state of high tension before and couldn't eat anything. Now she felt hungry.

  Wan Ji Jing Hou spread out a blanket for Wen Bai Yu to lie on, and covered him with another one. He then got up to start a fire and made something hot for Wen Bai Yu to eat.

  Wen Baiyu lay on her side, watching Wang Ju Jing Hou busily coming and going. When Wang Ju Jing Hou did things, he was always very focused and serious-looking, with a cold and stern expression, slightly furrowed brows, and perfect looks, no wonder he attracted so many admirers.

  Wan Kuang Jing Hou turned his head and saw Wen Bai Yu staring blankly at him. He couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth and say, "Staring blankly?"

  Wen Baiyu was caught off guard, although he didn't admit it, but just now he really looked stunned.

  Wan Qi Jing Hou was busy, perhaps because the fragrance was too strong, the little ones immediately woke up, Xue Mu had actually woken up early, but Guan Nan didn't wake up, so he didn't move.

  The little ones are very spirited, with small feathers and eggs on either side of their faces, rubbing against the warm white feathers with all their might. Perhaps the time they spent apart earlier made the two little ones a bit scared, now they're especially sticky to themselves.

  Wen Baiyu gently pecked at Xiao Yu's cheek, soft and tender like silken tofu, with a hint of milk fragrance. Xiao Yu let out a giggle, and immediately hugged Wen Baiyu's face, asking her to kiss his own cheeks as well.

  Wen Baiyu gave a gentle peck on the left and then another on the right, happiness was almost bursting out. The two little ones were so adorable that it was unbearable, and their cuteness was also unbearable. It's no wonder why Wang Qishan liked kids so much.

  Little Blood Jade took a glance at Little Feather, who was snuggled up in Wen Bai's warm feathers. With a few quick movements, she climbed onto Guan Nan's body and sat down in his arms. Then, imitating the others, she leaned over and gave Guan Nan's cheek a gentle peck.

  The little blood marrow flower is delicate and beautiful, inherited a bit of the blood marrow, especially when it's small, looks super cute, but in essence, it's actually a chaotic demon king.

  Guan Nan was kissed by Xiao Xue Mian Hua, and immediately burst out laughing. Xiao Xue Mian Hua pointed to her own cheek, Guan Nan quickly lowered his head and also gave a peck on the cheek. Xiao Xue Mian Hua laughed uncontrollably, but ended up being picked up by Xue Mian Hei with a black face and put aside.

  The little blood marrow flower is stuck on his arm, with an accusatory look that says the blood marrow is too petty.

  Xiao Chui Long helped Wan Qi Jing Hou cook rice, using a ladle to scoop the rice into disposable bowls.

  Everyone sat together eating, Wen Baiyu couldn't help but roll her eyes at Wan Kuang Jing Hou and said: "I'm not crippled, no need to feed me."

  Wan Xi Jing Hou smiled and held Wen Bai Yu in his arms, feeding him rice to the edge of his mouth, saying: "That won't do, I'm afraid you'll get tired."

  Wen Baiyu had no choice but to let Wan Jingshou continue feeding him, not knowing if Wan Jingshou was addicted to feeding people, one spoonful at a time.

  Egg/Egg sat on one side watching, immediately patted Xiao Chong Long and said: "Brother! Eat!"

  The little dragon was a bit helpless, but still fed the egg with a spoon.

  Everyone had finished eating, Wen Baiyu looked at them and saw that they all had bloodstains on their bodies, saying: "What happened to you?"

  Guannan said: "The kiln mouth was blown up by Old Yan at that time, and a lot of zongzi came out from the kiln. The inside of the kiln was simply a place where dead bodies were piled up, and it took a lot of effort to get down."

  When they came down, Wen Baiyu was no longer there, but the coffin in the tomb chamber was open, and there was blood on the ground. At that time, Wan Qi Jinghou's face was extremely terrifying. After walking out along the tomb path, he found a lot of blood on the ground. In fact, those bloodstains were caused by Lao Yan's corpse crashing against the door, and it was also thanks to those bloodstains that Wan Qi Jinghou entered the tomb chamber filled with stone tablets.

  There was a mark left by Wen Baiyu on the stone tablet. As soon as Wan Kuang saw the mark, he immediately rushed into the tunnel, and the people behind him couldn't catch up with him, just like going crazy.

  "Wen Baiyu said: 'Then you also saw the painting on the stone tablet?'"

  Guannan shook her head and said: "I didn't have time to look, just glanced at it, now I don't remember."

  Wen Baiyu stroked his chin and said, "This tomb is very strange. I just carefully looked at those nine stone tablets, the first eight of which should be about the tribe's people choosing their wolf god."

  Wen Baiyu recounted the process of selecting on the stone tablet, and Guan Nan listened with disgust, saying: "Using humans and wolves to mate? And throwing newborn babies into the forest, can any child really survive?"

  Wen Baiyu shook his head and said, "I don't know either... This tomb is dedicated to the wolf, but it also has the totem of the golden cicada, and those blood amber, what are they used for?"

  Wan Qi Jinghou said: "Amber had a very strong religious belief in ancient times, many people used amber as ritual vessels and sacrificial utensils."

  "What about those blood agates made from blood and corpse oil?"

  Wan Qi Jinghou said: "Looking at the blood jade inside, I think it's very likely that the person who built this tomb is in the artificial blood jade, in other words, also artificially made some ritual vessels and sacrificial vessels."

  Wen Baiyu couldn't help but shudder at the thought. What kind of tribe was this? And what did they have to do with Jin Chan anyway?

  Wen Baiyu remembered what Lao Yan and Kang Qingshuang had said, "Right, Lao Yan is dead. I reckon you saw the body when you came, it was that headless one in the tunnel just now."

  When everyone caught up, they had actually seen it a long time ago, and when they saw it, their hearts were racing with fear.

  Wen Baiyu told them about her falling down incident and informed them that there was something else at the fork in the road where Kang Qingshuang and Lao Yan had spoken.

  As soon as Wen Baiyu said that, he heard the sound of Wan Qi Jinghou's joints cracking, and Wan Qi Jinghou's face turned black with anger. He stretched out his hand to grab Wen Baiyu's shoulder, parted his hair, and saw that the needle hole was very small and had already healed. If you didn't look carefully, you really couldn't see it.

  Wen Baiyu just wanted to say that he had checked, it was just an anesthetic, but as soon as he felt a warmth on the back of his neck, Wan Qi Jinghou surprisingly licked him again.

  Wen Bai's neck shrunk back, his neck being the most sensitive part of his body. Normally, when Wan Jie Jing Hou would touch it, he would relax and become as docile as a kitten. But now, he couldn't withstand Wan Jie Jing Hou's licking, and his breathing immediately quickened.

  Wen Baiyu didn't know if it was because his spiritual energy was blocked, but his willpower had also decreased a lot. A surge of heat rushed up, and after being licked by Wan Kuang Jinghou twice, his body became excited, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

  Wan Qi Jing Hou licked his lips twice, and the needle eye behind Wen Bai Yu's neck immediately disappeared. However, Wan Qi Jing Hou's face still looked terrible. Wen Bai Yu was now physically weak, and Lao Yan and Kang Qing Xue actually wanted to catch Wen Bai Yu as a sacrifice, and even injected him with a sedative, which had unknown side effects and an uncertain impact on the child.

  The more Wan Xi thought about it, the more restless he became. A surge of anger suddenly rose up, and in the dark tunnel, his eyes turned blood red in an instant.

  Wen Baiyu felt Wan Jingshou's body temperature rise suddenly, almost scalding her. She looked up to see that even his eyes had turned red, and his breathing was getting heavier. His eyes were narrowed, giving off a very dangerous feeling.

  Wen Baiyu hastily comforted and patted the back of Wan Kuang Jing Hou's hand, Wan Kuang Jing Hou immediately came to his senses, feeling his own violent aura, afraid of scaring Wen Baiyu, instantly restrained himself.

  Wen Baiyu said: "Lao Yan is already dead and can't die again. It's that Kang Qingshu, I don't know where she went."

  Wan Kuang Jing Hou narrowed his eyes and hid all his violent and tyrannical aura, but he didn't say a word.

  The crowd rested for a while, among them, Wan Xi Jing Hou and Xue Su had not slept since last night. First, they encountered the mud man's attack, then dug the tomb, and all the way, they did not have a moment to spare. Although Wan Xi Jing Hou didn't show any signs of fatigue, there were many blood vessels in his eyes. Just now when Wen Bai was sleeping, Wan Xi Jing Hou also didn't rest much, just pretending to sleep, not daring to close his eyes.

  Wen Baiyu looked at Wan Kuang Jing Hou embracing her, with her eyes closed, and didn't know if it was because she had just heard about Lao Yan and Kang Qing Xue's situation, but her face had been looking very bad all along. Even with her eyes closed, she still looked very cold and stern.

  Wen Baiyu had slept a lot and couldn't sleep anymore, leaning against Wan Jingshou's leg, she raised her head, quietly stretched out her hand to touch the bottom of Wan Jingshou's eyes, which were a bit dark.

  Wen Baiyu's hand had just reached out when Wan Jingshou immediately opened his eyes, grabbed his hand and put it to his lips for a kiss, smiling and saying: "Want to sneak up on me?"

  Wen Bai's face turned red as she said, "Who wants to sneak up on you? You should rest quickly, we'll be moving forward again soon."

  After resting for about half an hour, everyone woke up and prepared to set off. Wan Xi Jing Hou had a bag on his back, reached out and held Wen Bai Yu's hand, saying: "I really want to tie you to me with a rope so you won't get lost again."

  Wen Baiyu rolled her eyes and said, "That's not my fault either."

  Wan Kuang Jing Hou smiled and said: "Alright, I'll take care of it."

  Wen Baiyu nodded in satisfaction.

  Everyone shouldered their luggage and set off. This tunnel was very deep, and it was unknown where it led to. After walking for a long time, there was finally some light in front of them, which turned out to be flickering flames.

  The crowd was a bit suspicious and quickly walked a few steps forward, soon they saw a tomb.

  The tunnel finally connected to the tomb, and inside the tomb was a huge coffin with a wolf carved on it, but on the side was also carved a golden cicada, which looked very strange.

  This tomb chamber is very large and looks very exquisite. The blood-red walls are painted with various murals, which seem to be the main tomb chamber at first glance.

  Everyone immediately held their breath, the lamp was shaking constantly, and behind the coffin there was a table for offering sacrifices. Everyone took out their flashlights one by one to shine on it, and found that Wan Qi Jing Hou's guess earlier was correct.

  On the table were many blood agate-made offerings, and on the table was a slightly smaller ornament, some of which had cicadas clamped in them, and some of which had wolf teeth clamped in them. Because they were so small, none of them had an entire person clamped in them, which made Wen Baiyu breathe a sigh of relief. If there really was someone clamped in one, Wen Baiyu estimated that she would have vomited directly.

  On the table, apart from the offerings, there was a box with a wolf's head carved on it. A pair of deep blue gemstone eyes sparkled in the dimly lit tomb.

  Wen Baiyu's heart skipped a beat as he saw this deep blue eyes, the wolf that bit the monkey to death in the tomb passage just now had such eyes.

  Everyone looked around and noticed that in the tomb, there was only a coffin and this box. It's unknown what's inside the box.

  Everyone focused their attention on the box first, because opening a box is much safer than opening a coffin.

  Wan Kuang Jing Hou stretched out his hand and touched the box, saying: "There is a mechanism inside, but it's just an ordinary crossbow arrow."

  He said, stretching out his hand to cover the box lid, and lightly opening it, just hearing a "click" sound. Wan Kuang Jing Hou didn't dodge at all, but stretched out his hand to clip the arrow that shot out, and then threw it aside.

  The box was opened, and inside was a piece of wolf skin, white wolf skin with fur, very thick. Wang Qi Jing Hou picked up one corner and pulled out the wolf skin, which immediately unfolded, but there was nothing in it, however, there were clearly words on the inside of the wolf skin.

  Wan Qi Jing Hou took a look at those words and said: "It's seal script."

  It's clear that Wan Gui Jing Hou could understand these characters, but at that time the words were not very uniform and many characters could only be guessed to form a general idea.

  This is a wolf-worshiping tribe. In ancient China, there were few myths about wolves because they symbolized rebellion and were not auspicious. However, since wolves are pack animals that are extremely ferocious and have strong cooperative hunting abilities, they also symbolize unity and strength, so some tribes worshiped them as such.

  Wen Baiyu heard this and said strangely: "Why only appeared wolf worship, what about Jin Chan? What about the Queen Mother of the West?"

  Wan Xi Jing Hou shook his head and said: "This era is obviously different from that of the Western Queen Mother's country."

  He said, and continued to look down, reading aloud to others as he went.

  This tribe is very powerful because they worship the wolf god, and the leaders of the tribe are all reincarnations of the wolf god. What does it mean to be a reincarnation of the wolf god? In simple terms, it means being the child of a wolf and a human. Only such a wolf god can serve as their leader.

  But later the population of the tribe began to dwindle, and Wen Baiyu said: "Can't it dwindle? Good girls were all given to wolves for mating, I reckon the sex ratio must be severely imbalanced."

  What Wen Baiyu said is almost true, the tribal sacrifices always select the purest women to send to the wolf god for breeding, but wolves are animals and very ferocious ones at that, so it's rarely successful.

  After a sharp decline in the number of people in the tribe, these people also began to worry. It was at this time that they discovered a miracle in the desert.

  Miracle hidden in the desert...

  Wen Baiyu didn't know why, but as soon as he heard this, he thought of Xie Lin's and An Ran's experiences. An Ran recalled that when he woke up, he was in the desert, but he couldn't remember anything. The divine sign in the desert might be the place that Xie Lun, also known as Xie Zongzi, called "that place".

  Wan Xi Jing Hou said: "It is written here that this kind of divine sign can only be entered by the purest person, otherwise anyone who enters will die. Even if he comes out, he will go crazy."

  The people of the tribe wanted to use this miracle to expand their tribe, but the miracle didn't say much, only four words were enough for everyone to be sure that what the miracle said was definitely "that place" in the Western Queen Mother's country.

  Wealth, immortality.

  The people of the tribe believed that their leader, the wolf god, was the purest, so only the wolf god could enter "that place" for generations. However, as one might expect, few people can come out after entering, until a new leader appeared.

  This leader is who, what's his name, there is no record at all, only a record that this leader is extremely fierce, his appearance is human, but he can transform into a wolf.

  The leader entered the shrine and appeared three days later, the tribe's people witnessed the leader walking out of the shrine, bringing them wealth and the secret to eternal life.

  The priest gathered all the elders of the tribe together, waiting for the secret of the divine sign, waiting for the leader to lead the tribe into greatness. But at this time, the leader who was worshipped as the wolf god by the tribe suddenly went mad and turned into a huge wolf, biting all the priests and elders in the tribe to death...

  Wen Baiyu found it very strange, could it be that the Wolf God was also stimulated by the divine sign and went crazy? No one knew what kind of magic power "that place" possessed. Xie Linxiao was like this, An Ran was like this, even the wolf god, their common point was that they were all stimulated, but no one could say where "that place" was or what was inside.

  The tribe collapsed instantly, and this also became the last wolf god.

  This tomb is actually used to bury the tribal elders and the wolf god. Wen Baiyu looked at the coffin in the middle and said, "So, this coffin should be the wolf god who has entered that place?"

  Wan Xi Jing Hou nodded and said, "It should be."

  "Shall we open it and take a look?"

  Wan Xi Jing Hou nodded again and said: "Since you've all come, of course we'll take a look."

  The purpose of Wan Jie Jing Hou coming down to this mine is to find things related to the Western Queen Mother's country. Their clues were cut off, and Wen Bai Yu was poisoned by the poisonous needle, although he suppressed it, but after all, he couldn't carry it for a lifetime, and it was a hidden danger. Wan Jie Jing Hou wasn't someone who came to travel and have fun on a whim. Now that he has seen the connection between this wolf-worshipping tribe and the Western Queen Mother's country, and the key person is buried in this coffin, of course, he wants to open it and take a look.

  The wolf god never revealed what the secret of the divine sign was until his death, and it is unknown whether he will be buried with him in his coffin.

  Wan Qi Jing Hou said as he walked over, his index and middle fingers tracing a circle on the coffin lid. Suddenly, he furrowed his brow and said: "This coffin is open."

  Everyone's back felt a chill, and Wen Baiyu said: "Was it opened before, or was it originally open?"

  Wan Xi Jing Hou carefully felt around and said: "There is no sign of opening, nor any signs of prying, it should be open from the start."

  He said this, Wen Baiyu became even more curious, with the Wolf God inside, didn't it need to be sealed?

  Wan Xi Jing Hou let Wen Bai Yu stand behind him, so that in case the coffin lid opened and something dangerous came out, he could block it for him.

  "Boom!" With a loud noise, Wan Qi Jing Hou stretched out his hand and pushed the coffin lid open. As soon as it was opened, everyone let out a "hiss" of surprise. The coffin was empty, without even a single burial item, it was an empty coffin!

  Such a delicate tomb chamber is obviously the main tomb chamber. The coffin in the main tomb chamber is empty. If nothing was installed, what is the significance of this burial?

  "Could it be that they've run away?"

  Wen Baiyu also felt that it was more likely that Zongzi had run away.

  Just then, a shrill cry of "Ahhh!!" echoed over, and the crowd poured in from the entrance of the tomb. The tomb still had two large gates behind which there was another passageway that could be continued forward.

  The scream was coming from the tomb passage in front of them, followed by a "bang bang bang" sound. A figure suddenly rushed into the tomb chamber, with blood all over his face, still screaming non-stop. Wen Baiyu immediately covered her nose and mouth, the smell of blood was too pungent. When she took a closer look, it turned out to be Kang Qingxue, if not looked carefully, one would have thought it was a resurrected corpse!

  Kang Qing's face was covered in blood, her body was also bloody, and there was a stench of rotting flesh. It was unclear where she had been rolling around. A deep bruise on her neck suggested that something had constricted it.

  Kang Qingxue rushed in and immediately saw Wan Jie Jing Hou, with a messy hair and dirty face, rushing over, both high heels fell off, almost rolling and crawling, shouting at Wan Jie Jing Hou: "Jing Ye! Quickly save me!!"

  Kang Qingshu rushed over, and Wan Jinhao immediately narrowed his eyes, kicked him out with a loud noise. Kang Qingshu was completely unprepared, and with Wan Jinhao's great strength, how could he still be standing? Not to mention pouncing on him, he immediately rolled onto the ground.

  Wen Baiyu felt Wan Jingshou's ferocity and quickly blocked him. If he had taken a second step, Kang Qingshuang would have been kicked to death.

  Kang Qingsheng shouted loudly and said: "Master Jing! What are you doing kicking me!"

  She said that and saw Wen Baiyu on one side, unexpectedly Wen Baiyu was still alive, and his body was not messy at all, unlike herself.

  "Master Jing! Master Jing! Don't listen to him, he's all lies! He was just trying to kill me a moment ago!"

  Wan Jie Jing Hou's joints cracked with a loud "crack", scaring Kang Qing Xue into trembling, Wen Bai Yu feared that Wan Jie Jing Hou would really lose control and kill someone, which would be hard to explain later.

  Wen Baiyu smiled and said, "Don't kick her, it's not good to hit a woman. Let's go, let her fend for herself here, and make a fortune from those blood jades."

  Wan Qi Jing Hou didn't resist/oppose either, he just coldly stared at Kang Qing Xue.

  Just then, a loud "thud" was heard from outside, and something quickly rushed into the tomb.

  Kang Qingxue let out a loud "Ah ah ah" and suddenly saw a figure rush in, to be precise, it was Zongzi. Wen Baiyu didn't know if this Zongzi was some kind of elder who had been buried, but he really looked like one.

  The zongzi had turned into a mummy, wrapped in dark purple skin, with bones and flesh like wood, wearing a wolf mask on its face, the eyes and mouth were hollowed out, but the mummy's eyes had shrunk, so the eye sockets were two large black holes, while the mouth was bloodstained, looking as if it had just bitten someone, naturally it was Kang Qingxue who had been bitten.

  A withered corpse rushed in, seemingly having caught a whiff of the strong smell of blood, and immediately became even more ferocious, letting out a "ke ke ke" angry roar as it charged towards Kang Qingshu.

  Kang Qingshu let out a loud "Ah!" and fainted, while the corpse walked over, causing everyone to be on guard. However, it seemed that the corpse wasn't heading towards Kang Qingshu at all, but instead sensed an even more delicious aura in the tomb, and directly passed by Kang Qingshu's body.

  "Ah!" With a loud cry, Kang Qingshu's leg was probably broken, and Kang Qingshu let out a loud wail as she came to from her daze. She immediately locked eyes with a ferocious wolf mask, two shriveled eyeballs, and a mouth full of blood.

  Kang Qingxue's eyes rolled back and she fainted again instantly.

  The mummy's gaze was clearly placed on the little ones, and several of them were full of delicious feelings.

  The little bird puffed out its chest, pursed its small beak, and flapped its wings to take off, ready to attack the withered corpse.

  Wen Baiyu thought back to the scene where Xiao Yuema spat fire, and the forest could have been burned down. His family's Da Mao was not violent, but still very fierce.

  Just as Wen Baiyu was rejoicing, Xiaoyu opened his mouth and let out a "whoosh" sound, spitting out a small flame, just like a lighter running out of fuel. The small flame flickered and went out instantly, leaving Xiaoyu stunned for a moment before he started coughing violently, choking on the smoke.

  Wen Baiyu's heart skipped a beat as she thought, "Is his family's big furball selling cute?"

  The desiccated corpse was startled by the spark, but quickly regained its composure and pounced again. The small Blood Orchid probably felt frightened too, as the Tendrils "whooshed" out to wrap around Xiao Yu's feathers, yanking him over, and then hid behind the Blood Orchid, clutching Xiao Yu tightly.

  The little dragon was holding an egg, which was floating in mid-air. The mummy suddenly rushed up and the little dragon quickly flew up, its tail slapping the mummy's face with a "slap" sound, directly sending the mummy flying out. With a loud "boom", the mummy crashed into the wall, and the mask on its face fell to the ground with a "clatter".

  Wen Baiyu couldn't help but touch her own face, feeling that Er Mao was too violent and purely had a strange power, wondering if the faces of all the dry corpses were sucked in.

  The corpse lay motionless on the ground, its blood congealed, but the vines behind it stretched out, making a "whooshing" sound as they rolled up the mask on the ground and held it in their grasp to examine.

  A very ordinary wolf mask, probably used for sacrificial purposes, with a fierce and ferocious wolf painted on it.

  The corpse was motionless after being pulled by Xiao Chonglong, and the coffin in the tomb was empty again. Everyone planned to continue moving forward to take a look, but Kang Qingshu fainted, however, Wen Baiyu didn't want to save her.

  Everyone walked out of the tomb directly and after a while, Wen Baiyu was sweating and felt that she hadn't taken many steps but was already exhausted.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou looked at him and said, "I'll carry you on my back."

  Wen Baiyu originally wanted to hold on a bit longer, but was afraid of affecting his body, so he nodded. Wan Kuang Jinghou picked him up horizontally and carried him effortlessly, lowered his head and kissed Wen Baiyu's forehead, saying: "Take a nap."

  Wen Baiyu obediently closed his eyes and fell asleep immediately. After walking a few more steps, Wan Jinhou felt that Wen Baiyu's body was trembling, and Wen Baiyu remained dazed and confused.

  Everyone stopped and found a place to rest. The path to the grave suddenly widened, and it was unclear where they were going next. Wan Qi Jing Hou put down Wen Bai Yu and gently touched Wen Bai Yu's face, saying: "Bai Yu? Wake up."

  Wen Baiyu heard someone calling her, struggled to open her eyes, and breathed a bit hastily. She couldn't tell whether she had just woken up or fainted earlier. "I... my stomach hurts a bit..."

  It's a bit painful, Wen Baiyu's body trembled, her head was covered in sweat, and her face was deathly pale.

  Wan Qi Jing Hou stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat for him, feeling that this was not a solution. Wan Bai Yu's reaction was very big, and he still had to take Wan Bai Yu out first.

  The distance ahead was unknown, and Wan Jie Jing Hou wanted to take Wen Bai Yu back the original way, out of the thief's cave. Guan Nan saw Wen Bai Yu's expression and was also anxious, without any opinion, Xue Su also agreed.

  Everyone was preparing to head back quickly, when suddenly the egg opened its eyes wide and stared into the dark area, pointing at the tomb path they had walked through, which was also the path they were going to return by. It let out a loud cry several times, shouting "brother" and "dad".

  The little dragon held the egg close and narrowed its blood-red eyes, and the egg shrank into the little dragon's arms.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou also heard the movement, as if a large piece of something was coming from afar, heading straight for them, and soon heard "Kaka... Kaka..." sounds.

  Guannan said: "Oh no, could it be that the zongzi has come back to life?"

  Xue Suo said: "It sounds like there are a lot of dumplings, it seems that we can't go back the same way. You take Wen Baiyu and leave first, I'll cover the rear."

  Guan Nan didn't want to leave Xuegui alone in the back, but also worried that if he stayed behind, he would hold Xuegui back. Xuegui couldn't help but laugh at this.

  Wan Kuang Jing Hou held Wen Bai Yu, who was shaking uncontrollably, cold sweat streaming down his face, biting his lip as if in great distress.

  Wen Baiyu had a feeling that Egg Baby was about to come out, but he just discovered that he was pregnant...

  Although I didn't use spiritual power before, so I couldn't feel it, and I don't know when I got pregnant, but he just knew that he was pregnant, and it's only been a few hours, if I'm going to give birth now, it's too fast...

  Wen Baiyu bit his lip, panting heavily, with sweat all over his head. Wan Kuang Jing Hou held him and quickly ran forward. Immediately after, a "heh heh" roar was heard from behind, but the roar didn't continue to spread forward, it seemed that they were blocked by Xue Mu and others.

  The little ones all followed Wan Jie Jing Hou, they ran forward for a while, Wen Bai Yu suddenly "hissed" and said: "Bai Yu, what's wrong? Are you in severe pain?"

  Wen Baiyu was speechless, his body slightly convulsing, with a head full of sweat, indicating to Wan Qi Jinghou to put him down.

  The path became very wide, with tombs on both sides, but they were not actually tombs. The doors of the tombs were metal bars, which looked like prison cells.

  This is a prison, I don't know why, this tomb has built so many prisons, and all the prisons are empty, there are no corpses inside, I don't know what they are used for.

  Wan Qi Jing Hou quickly put down Wen Bai Yu, and before he even reached the ground, a "click" sound was heard, followed by a rolling sound. Wen Bai Yu's limbs relaxed, and she briefly fell into a coma, but soon woke up again.

  Wan Qi Jing Hou was slightly surprised, a white object emitting a bright glow rolled forward along the wide tomb path with a "rumbling" sound.

  Egg pointed at the thing in his hand and said: "Egg! Egg!"

  Wen Baiyu was startled as soon as he heard the word "egg", and immediately woke up, Wan Qi Jinghou let him lean against the tomb wall, and immediately jumped up, stretched out his hand to grab the white egg treasure.

  In an instant, the egg burst into tears, a pair of deep blue eyes suddenly pierced through the darkness, and a wolf pounced out. Wan Kuang Jing Hou did not withdraw his hand, and the wolf's claws immediately made a "swish" sound on the back of his hand.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou's hand immediately saw blood, the wolf that pounced out blocked Wan Xi Jing Hou's path, and then from the darkness, several more wolves slowly emerged, making a "huff... huff..." rough breathing sound. Perhaps because Wan Xi Jing Hou also had the aura of a wild beast on him, those wolves gathered together, blocking Wan Xi Jing Hou's way.

  The white egg baby "gululu" rolled forward, and suddenly rolled into the cage along the railing. When Wen Baiyu saw that Wan Qi Jinghou was surrounded by a group of wolves, the egg baby rolled into the cage again, immediately got up from the ground, wanting to go over to help.

  However, when Wen Baiyu walked closer, he was slightly surprised to find that the white egg had rolled into a prison cell, and this prison cell was not like any other.

  Not empty, the only cell with people in it.

  In the prison cell, a man was lying on his side on the ground. His hair was too long and covered his face, making it impossible to see any features, but it could be determined that he was a man with an extremely tall and large build. Heavy black iron chains were locked around his neck, hands, and legs.

  Lying still, but not a dry corpse, exposed skin even still has elasticity.

  Just like a living person...

  The egg baby emitted a brilliant light, even emitting warm sunshine, and rolled into the prison through the gap. With a "gulu" sound, it hit the iron chain and stopped there, without cracking, extremely smooth, looking like a shiny gemstone.

  At this moment, the person locked in the prison cell suddenly opened his eyes, a pair of deep blue eyes, like a wolf's, slightly narrow and long, emitting a faint blue glow in the dark prison...
