Chapter 60: The Tomb of King Xiang 4

  In the dimly lit tomb, a faint and eerie sound suddenly echoed out.

  Wen Baiyu immediately turned around, a black shadow flashed past in front of the tomb door.

  After a light response, it was a loud "rumble" sound. The stone walls on both sides of the tomb suddenly compressed inward, emitting a huge noise.

  Wen Baiyu said: "This is bad, someone has removed the mechanism."

  He said, beckoning everyone to run out, the tomb wall closed very quickly, and with a "boom" it was sealed. The crowd ran out from inside, their foreheads were sweating, and they were still in shock.

  "Whoosh——"

  A gust of wind sounded, Wen Baiyu's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately turned his head back. That black shadow floated by again.

  "What kind of ghost thing is this?"

  Wen Baiyu said: "It's Huo Mo's skin."

  The child put the gun on his shoulder and said, "Shall we chase?"

  Wen Baiyu shook his head and said, "We can't chase after him. If we do, we'll be at a disadvantage. Let's find Wan Kuang first."

  Tang Tzu frowned and said: "The Fire Demon's skin has indeed arrived, but now I don't know where General Wan Xi Jing is or how they are doing."

  Wen Baiyu and they exited the tomb chamber, not chasing in the direction of the black shadow, but continuing to move forward. The tomb chamber was very grand, just like the one they saw last time, with a circular corridor, exquisite carvings on the dome, and intricate murals.

  As people walked along the passageway, they turned a corner and suddenly the road ahead became bright, with two rows of lanterns.

  The shape of the dragon lantern is that of a phoenix with its neck stretched out, with golden phoenixes standing on the lamp holder, arching their necks and spewing out faint flames from their mouths.

  Everyone was shocked by the two rows of exquisite long lanterns, and they couldn't help but walk over to take a look. They saw that each golden phoenix was vividly lifelike, with six slightly wider tails inside which were filled with animal fat, and in the beak of the bird there was a small lamp wick, which should have been connected to the tail of the bird.

  The golden phoenix doesn't look like it's made of pure gold, it should be gilded on the outside, but every detail is vivid and lifelike, with eyes that are lively and expressive, and the feathers on its tail are clearly defined, as if they're about to come alive.

  Such long lanterns have nine seats on one side and eighteen lamps in total.

  Shi Xu laughed and said, "I've seen so many lanterns, but I've never seen such a beautiful dragon-shaped lantern. The Marquis of Xiang is indeed wealthy, who did he invite to make this, it's really vivid."

  As they spoke, they walked along the Longming lamp towards the inside. This road was illuminated by the Longming lamps on both sides, making it a bit dazzling and not needing flashlights at all. When they reached the end, everyone suddenly saw a bronze gate.

  "Look at that door!" exclaimed Wen Bai, pointing. "Isn't this the same door as the one in the temple? The one on the wall with the mural? It's identical."

  Tang Zi didn't know that there was a hidden door on the wall of murals in the broken temple, after all, everyone had scattered at that time, and only Gan Zhu discovered it.

  Everyone then explained it to Tang Zi again. Tang Zi immediately furrowed his brow and said, "This gate should be the Ninth Heaven Gate of Mount Kunlun."

  Wen Baiyu said: "Altogether nine? It seems we haven't made a mistake, this should be the tomb of King Xiang."

  Wen Baiyu pulled out a black feather from her sleeve and asked Tangzi, "Have you seen this thing before? We encountered something unclean in that tomb, as a result I was affected by the corpse scent and let him go."

  Tang Zijie took over the black feather and looked at it. Although Tang Zijie's feathers were also black, they felt different from this one. This feather was much smaller and looked like a normal bird's feather.

  Tang Zi also shook his head and said, "I don't feel anything."

  Wen Baiyu was also unclear, although Wen Baiyu had been affected by the corpse fragrance, he still had some doubts about that suddenly resurrected zongzi.

  He put the black feathers back into his pocket, and everyone walked to the side of the gate, only to find that it was locked, but the big lock had been opened and thrown on the ground.

  It seems someone has already entered the door, that must be Wan Gui Jing Hou. The gate is very heavy and everyone works together to push it open.

  Inside the gate, there were also eighteen long-lasting lanterns of the same kind. As people walked in, they connected to a circular passageway, and immediately it became dark in front of them.

  Everyone turned on the flashlights tied to their wrists, and for a moment, the passageway was brightly lit.

  Not far ahead, the curved passageway came to an end and connected with a straight one. Next to it was a tomb chamber.

  Everyone leaned in to take a look, and they were all shocked. Inside the tomb chamber stood nine stone statues holding weapons, with a coffin placed in the middle.

  Shi Xiang said: "There can't be zongzi inside this person, right?"

  Wen Baiyu shook his head and said, "There shouldn't be any zongzi in this tomb. If Xiang Wang wants Hong E to accompany him in death, then he shouldn't have wanted anyone else to be buried with him, should he?"

  Shi Xu shrugged and said: "Whoever said that was right. As the old saying goes, the emperor's mouth is a bird's mouth, what he says is half true and half false, who can believe it?"

  "Come in and take a look."

  Everyone walked in, the coffin in the middle was very large, but still did not cover the coffin lid, the coffin board was open and leaned directly against the side of the coffin. The inside of the coffin was empty, without even a single hair, let alone burial objects.

  At that time, Shi Xue was studying the eighteen stone soldiers beside him and clicked his tongue to say: "Look at this lineup, the owner of this tomb chamber must be a nobleman, but why is it empty?"

  If the coffin is empty, people will probably think of Zongzi rising from the dead and running out of the coffin. But this coffin is completely different because it was never closed in the first place.

  Wen Baiyu also went to see the people beside him, and they were all extremely tall, half a head taller than Wen Baiyu. They held stone-made weapons in their hands, and each of them had a fierce face, looking brave and good at fighting.

  Shi Xu smiled and said: "Xiangguo is actually an ancient minority, these people look so majestic, the outline of their eyebrows is also deeper."

  Wen Baiyu looked back one by one, and suddenly exclaimed "Huh?", everyone heard the sound and looked at him.

  Wen Baiyu pointed at one of the men and said, "This man has been moved."

  As soon as he said that, everyone lowered their heads to look and saw a white mark on the floor. The person who should have been standing there was now shifted to one side. The tomb chamber was very large, with eighteen stone coffins arranged in an orderly manner, not appearing crowded at all. Yet this strange coffin was squeezed against the adjacent ones.

  Wen Baiyu's neck suddenly twitched, could it be that there really is a living human sacrifice in here? This can't be, Wen Baiyu didn't know why, but subconsciously she trusted Xiang Wang very much. Xiang Wang had said not to let anyone accompany him in death, how could there possibly be zongzi in the tomb?

  Wen Baiyu stabilized her breathing and took two steps back, and everyone gathered around.

  The craftsmanship of the human puppet is extremely fine, and the armor on its body is also carved out piece by piece. What's most astonishing is that the human puppet's eyeballs are made of movable stones, eyelids, and even the delicate veins on the eyeballs are carved with great precision.

  At this moment, the strange man's eyeballs suddenly emitted a faint humming sound.

  His eyeballs moved!

  Wen Baiyu was even more frightened and took a step back, her breathing quickening as she said: "He... his eyes moved..."

  As soon as he spoke, Ren Yu's eyeballs started rolling even more, as if proving Wen Baiyu's words. "Boom——" Another soft sound, and Ren Yu's eyeballs actually rolled upwards, quickly revealing the entire white of his eyes, making him look extremely eerie.

  The little beast was so frightened that it hugged Wen Baiyu's neck and said: "De, deception! Master is so scary!"

  Wen Baiyu swallowed a mouthful of saliva, just as everyone was about to leave the tomb. Suddenly, Ren Yu's eyes began rolling rapidly again, with the whites flashing in and out of his pupils, looking extremely eerie.

  Wen Baiyu said: "You guys say his eyes won't be a mechanism?"

  He had just finished speaking when a loud "thud" was heard, and to everyone's surprise, the head of the person suddenly fell off from his neck and hit the ground, then rolled to Wen Baiyu's feet with a rustling sound.

  "Ahhhhh!!!"

  The beast let out a loud cry and suddenly transformed into a rabbit, hanging on Wen Baiyu's shoulder. Then the two white rabbit legs kicked against Wen Baiyu's back, almost causing internal injuries!

  Wen Baiyu subconsciously took a step back, that person's head didn't move again, but quietly lay on the ground, everyone held their breath.

  Shi Xu looked into Wang Ren's neck and said, "Is it hollow inside?"

  Wen Baiyu also stretched her neck and took a look, couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, saying: "Is it empty? Maybe it's just old age, the head fell off from the neck."

  As soon as he said that, he suddenly felt that this joke was not funny at all. This is a person who guards the tomb of the national master, how many craftsmen have the guts to make a person with a removable head?

  "Gulu..."

  A faint sound, and the head suddenly started rolling, one side of the face from facing down to facing up, everyone saw clearly, the two eyes were still rolling rapidly, sometimes the pupils and sometimes the whites, it was eerie to the extreme.

  Tangzi blocked everyone and said: "Leave first."

  "Wait... there's something inside."

  As soon as he spoke, everyone held their breath and looked carefully. They saw that the rolling head was hollow inside, dark and unclear. Wen Baiyu shone his flashlight on it, and in an instant, everyone saw it clearly.

  Ren You's head was also hollow, and inside it actually hid a large lizard. The lizard's skin color was dark gray, which was very close to Ren You's color, so at first everyone didn't notice, but Wen Baiyu had sharp eyes and saw it.

  The lizard was illuminated by Wen Baiyu's flashlight and seemed to be afraid of the light, suddenly shrinking back, its long tail coiled up like a snake.

  Wen Baiyu's flashlight only flashed for a moment before passing by, and the lizard suddenly stretched its body and swiftly crawled out from under Ren Yu's head.

  He suddenly jumped out, and everyone was startled. It was shrunk inside and couldn't be seen clearly. When it came out, its head was extremely large, especially its long tail, which was coiled around in circles like a snake, and when stretched out, it was very long.

  The lizard's movements were extremely fast, crawling out from the stone, constantly moving forward, approaching the crowd, and then its body color began to change, at a speed that could be discerned with the naked eye, and it actually turned into the grayish-black color of the floor.

  Wen Baiyu quickly used his flashlight to shine, the lizard changed color and they almost couldn't see it. Its crawling speed was extremely fast, and in an instant it darted to Wen Baiyu's feet. Wen Baiyu shone his flashlight again, and it hesitated for a moment.

  Tangzi suddenly stretched out his hand and a fireball flew over, the lizard suddenly caught fire and flames rose high.

  Tangzi said: "Quickly get out of here, I don't know if this thing is poisonous or not."

  Generally, lizards are non-toxic and won't bite people, but who knows what's in the tomb? The things inside have been buried for hundreds of years without a hint of meat, and this tomb doesn't even have any accompanying corpses. If the lizard wants to eat something, it can only gnaw on stones. Now that there are several tender and delicious creatures that breathe, even if it's a vegetarian, it can't resist hunger.

  As everyone exited the tomb and ran deeper into the passageway, they soon heard a "thud thud thud" sound coming from behind them, as if something was rapidly approaching.

  "Wen Baiyu turned his head and said: 'Damn it, that lizard is chasing after us!'"

  Everyone who heard the news turned back, and they all thought it was unbelievable. Tang Zi was a phoenix, his flames were enough to burn everything, but that lizard was fine.

  What's even more frightening is that the lizard changed color again and became a completely fire-red lizard, as if there was a fire burning inside its body.

  The little car quickly turned around, "Bang" fired a shot, the lizard was knocked back, but only for an instant. The lizard changed color again, turning into a metallic color, emitting a metallic glow in the dim tomb passage.

  Wen Baiyu cursed in a low voice, this lizard was too damn weird, it could change color at will and adapt to situations randomly, it was simply immune to attacks.

  They ran all the way forward, and suddenly there was some light in front of them. It turned out to be another bronze gate with two rows of lanterns on either side. The bronze gate was so heavy that it took some time to push it open. If they stopped, who knows when they would be bitten by a lizard.

  Wen Bai's brain was racing quickly, and suddenly her foot was tripped by something, she fell forward violently, and instantly her chin almost dropped off, her teeth bit into her lip, and her mouth was full of blood.

  The beast crouched on his shoulder, and was thrown out in an instant. Yu Wei Yang was right next to him, watching as the lizard scurried over, reaching out to grab Wen Bai Yu and saying: "Hurry up and go!"

  Wen Baiyu almost bounced back from the ground, but saw that what tripped her was a very large machine with very simple buttons on it and a huge light head.

  Wen Baiyu had a sudden flash of insight in her mind - this machine must have been abandoned by Wan Kuangyinghou because it was too heavy.

  Yu Wei Yang saw him daze off, while several others had already rushed to the front of the bronze gate and were trying hard to push it open.

  Wen Baiyu stretched out his hand to touch the machine, and Yu Yang said: "Don't mess around, this one is too bright when turned on, it will blind your eyes."

  Wen Baiyu's heart was racing, and he suddenly thought of a countermeasure. He turned around and shouted loudly at Tangzi, "Use fire to burn it, quickly!"

  Tang Zi didn't hesitate for a second, and immediately conjured up a fireball in his palm. He threw it out, almost scraping against Wen Baiyu as he passed by. Wen Baiyu suddenly felt a burning heat, and nearly got roasted to the point of oozing oil.

  The fireball "Boom" hit, the lizard was immediately knocked over and turned over, instantly changing from metallic color to fiery red, as if resisting the burning of the tomb bird.

  At this moment, Wen Baiyu suddenly pressed the button of the machine, and a huge beam of light shot out, shining directly on the lizard's body.

  The lizard let out a strange cry, seemingly extremely afraid of bright things, let alone the light that could blind its eyes.

  The crimson-colored lizard began to get anxious and started spinning around in place, Wen Baiyu immediately shut off the machine, then grasped the Fengguui dagger and suddenly pounced forward, "Hiss——" a sound was heard, just in time to stab that huge lizard.

  The lizard was still in a state of anxiety when it was suddenly stabbed with a dagger, its body still fiery red and not having turned into metal color, and was pierced through in an instant. "Puff---" A stream of green water spurted out and splashed onto Wen Baiyu's face.

  Wen Baiyu hastily turned his head, and the green water flowed down his neck, his hair tips and shoulder clothes touched a little, and suddenly heard a "sizzling" sound, as if it was burnt, emitting a musty smell.

  Wen Baiyu kept pressing the dagger without letting go, fearing that if he loosened his grip, the lizard would escape. As a result, the lizard spat out a mouthful of green water and stopped moving, convulsing twice before falling to the ground motionless.

  Everyone let out a sigh of relief and rushed over, the lizard was motionless on the ground, a puddle of green water on the ground, the dagger deeply inserted inside.

  Tangzi frowned and said: "Indeed it's poisonous, don't touch it."

  Wen Baiyu hastily retreated a step back, Yu Yang was so frightened that his soul had not yet settled, and said: "Fortunately you can think of such a method, it's too risky."

  Wen Baiyu wiped the sweat from his forehead, and the crowd had already pushed open the gate. He reached out to pick up his dagger, "Hiss——" a sudden pull, just as he pulled it out, the lizard on the ground suddenly jumped up and bit down on the back of Wen Baiyu's hand.

  "Ah..."

  Wen Baiyu shouted, exerting himself to swing his hand, and the child car suddenly shot over a gun, which happened to hit the lizard's belly. The lizard was already dying and struggling, without the strength to change color, and its belly was broken by one shot, instantly turning into a mess, leaving only its long tail intact.

  Wen Baiyu's hand suddenly let go of the dagger, and she covered her own wrist, looking down to see that it had turned a bluish-green color, which quickly spread.

  Wen Baiyu thought it was bad and suspected poisoning.

  Everyone reacted quickly and immediately made an incision on Wen Baiyu's wrist to let out blood and then injected antivenom.

  Yu Wei Yang said: "I've never seen a lizard like this before, and I don't know if the serum will work. Wen Bai Yu is not in a suitable state to move around right now, let's rest here for a while."

  Tang Ziyu shook his head and said, "This won't do. The lizard's corpse is here, and we don't know if there are any other lizards in this tomb. If the lizard's corpse or venom can attract its companions, then we're in danger."

  The child said: "I'll carry him."

  The little cart said as it squatted down and put Wen Baiyu on its back.

  Wen Baiyu only felt a slight numbness in her arm, and after the antivenom was administered, the feeling of palpitations and nausea slowly disappeared, leaving only a tingling sensation in her arm, probably due to some remaining venom that hadn't been fully treated.

  They walked in, not daring to stay, and after walking very far, they entered a spacious tomb chamber. This tomb chamber should be similar to the side room, used for placing offerings and burial objects, but this tomb chamber was empty, with nothing inside, nor was there a coffin.

  Everyone searched inside and found no lizards or strange things, so they put down Wen Baiyu. Everyone needed to rest and should eat something.

  Wen Baiyu was leaning against the wall, and Zi Che discovered that he was breathing particularly heavily. He touched his forehead and said: "Wen Baiyu has a fever, this is not a good omen."

  Everyone was a little silent, the antitoxin serum had been injected, they had used up all the equipment they could have, and now it's just fate.

  Wen Baiyu's eyes were dull and confused, Tangzi took out food to share with everyone, Wen Baiyu had no appetite to eat, felt bitter in her mouth, shook her head, leaned against the stone wall and felt a little sleepy, then fell asleep dazedly.

  His body felt extremely uncomfortable, alternating between hot and cold, his throat was sore as if on fire, and waves of hot sweat burst out from his forehead and back, but the numbness in his arms surprisingly disappeared.

  Wen Baiyu struggled to open his eyes, Yu Xiangyang sat beside him, covered him with a quilt and said: "You sleep for a while, you just slept for ten minutes."

  Wen Baiyu waved his hand, although his throat was still quite hoarse, but his arm had recovered, and the alternating cold and hot feeling on his body, as well as the tired and dizzy feeling, had all disappeared.

  The child came over to check and said: "It's actually reduced fever, I didn't expect your physical quality to be so good?"

  Wen Baiyu's fever had gone down, and he was starting to feel hungry. Everyone took out food for him to eat.

  Wen Baiyu looked up and found that they were studying the terrain of this tomb. They had already passed two bronze gates, and if you add one more from the broken temple, it would be three. If there really are nine, then who knows when they will come out? The food they prepared might not be enough either.

  Wen Baiyu looked at the simple map they drew and said, "Actually, I think we don't need to go through the ninefold, we can find the people in front of us. Think about it, our group came from the broken temple's bronze gate, passing through someone else's tomb, taking a shortcut into Kunlun Mountain, but the people in front didn't discover this shortcut. At this speed, they should be just ahead not far away."

  Everyone had a glimmer of hope, thinking that the people in front seemed not far away, and they couldn't sit still anymore. Wen Baiyu also ate something to replenish her energy, and everyone packed up their things to continue moving forward.

  Wen Baiyu stood up from the ground, feeling a sudden blackout in front of his eyes, and his body swayed. Piao Yu supported him from behind and asked, "What's wrong?"

  Wen Baiyu lifted her hand and looked at the wound on the back of her hand, still with a mark, and said: "Maybe I sat for too long, got up suddenly and felt a bit dizzy."

  Tangzi said: "The poison in your body is probably not completely cleared up yet, don't engage in intense exercise."

  Wen Baiyu thought for a moment and realized that she really didn't want to engage in intense exercise, but what if they encountered something scary again up ahead? She wouldn't have a choice but to do some intense exercise then.

  Everyone walked out of the tomb and continued to move forward. Soon, they saw the fourth major gate, which was surprisingly open and not closed. Everyone saved their energy and went straight in.

  As they walked, one of them shone a flashlight down the dark passageway and said: "You guys say that this Xiang Wang is really interesting. Everyone on the road wants to find Xiang Wang's tomb. Legend has it that there are pearls and treasures that can rival a country, as well as many divine instruments that cannot be sought after. As a result, we came in and found everything empty. If it weren't for the fact that this place is so well-preserved, I would have thought someone had been here before, and we're the second to enter the palace."

  He said, "There are very few records of this King Xiang in historical materials. Most of them are recorded in unofficial histories and folk legends. This King Xiang's temperament is indeed strange. It is said that he had no queen throughout his life, not even a concubine. After his death, there was not even an heir..."

  All along the way, he kept talking incessantly, and his voice was heard throughout the entire passageway, which also eased everyone's tense mood a bit.

  "Whoosh——"

  Wen Baiyu suddenly turned his head and heard a faint rustling sound of the wind.

  Everyone saw him quickly turn his head and said: "What's wrong?"

  Wen Baiyu turned her head back, but saw nothing. The sound of the wind seemed like an auditory hallucination, so she shook her head.

  Yu Wei Yang saw Wen Bai Yu's face turn pale, his lips slightly blue, and felt that the gecko's poison had not been resolved. If he continued like this, it would be no different from accelerating blood flow, and the toxin would also circulate quickly.

  "Whoosh——"

  Another gust of wind sounded, and Wen Baiyu's back tensed up. This gust of wind did not come from behind, but from the side.

  Wen Baiyu turned her head to look and found a grave had appeared beside her!

  This discovery frightened Wen Baiyu so much that she suddenly shouted: "Wait, don't go!"

  He looked towards the tomb, just now this was clearly a tomb wall, it's impossible to have an entrance, otherwise such a large tomb chamber, why didn't others discover it? According to Tang Zixing's meticulous nature, he would absolutely not neglect to examine a tomb chamber.

  Wen Baiyu's curious head went to take a look, and with a "whoosh" sound, the tomb suddenly lit up, as if it knew someone was watching.

  "Ah..."

  The lamp in the tomb suddenly lit up automatically, and Wen Baiyu let out a loud cry, frightened to fall to the ground. The light inside was shining brightly, illuminating the tomb, which was piled high with corpses.

  Those corpses had all rotted away, some turned into white bones, others became mummies, without a coffin, they were piled up on the ground in a disorderly manner.

  Wen Baiyu took a deep breath, quickly scrambled to his feet and retreated backward, thinking it was impossible. The tomb of King Xiang did not have any accompanying burials, how could there be so many corpses? Was it the doing of the treacherous scholar Dou Huai? But that was also impossible. These corpses had been like this for several hundred years, and the tomb was sealed very well. Except for Wan Kuangjing Hou, who else could find this place?

  Wen Baiyu was startled and took a few steps back, suddenly his body felt light, the stone wall behind him suddenly became empty, with a "pa" sound, someone patted him on the shoulder.

  Wen Baiyu felt a chill on the back of her neck, and when she turned around, she saw that the tomb wall behind her had suddenly produced another chamber. Two chambers were now facing each other, both open. The chamber behind her was also piled high with corpses, and a desiccated corpse with blackened skin reached out to place its hand on Wen Baiyu's shoulder.

  "Ah!"

  Wen Baiyu let out a loud shout, suddenly flinging open his arms and dashing forward several steps. He suddenly tensed up, turning his head to look around, but except for the skeletons, there was no one in sight. Everyone had vanished in an instant!

  The extra tomb gate, the disappeared crowd...

  Wen Baiyu's heart was racing wildly, he raised his hand and looked at his pale wrist.

  Wen Baiyu has also experienced many battles, and the things in those battles are nothing more than a few kinds. The most deadly thing is hallucinations, which are the most terrifying things in one's own mind, naturally being the things one fears the most.

  Wen Baiyu looked at the back of his hand, was it the lizard's poison that made him hallucinate? Otherwise, why would everyone suddenly disappear.

  At this moment, the corpses in the two tombs were as if they had smelled food and suddenly stood up straight, stiffly stretching out their hands, walking out of the tomb one by one, reaching out to grab Wen Baiyu.

  Wen Baiyu took a step back, grasping the phoenix bone dagger tightly in his hand, and his breathing became rapid. With each rapid breath, he felt something stabbing at his chest. He pressed his hand against his chest, and indeed, he had been poisoned.

  Wen Baiyu struggled to calm herself down, telling herself that everything was just an illusion, and as long as she could wake up, nothing would have happened.

  However, those skulls and mummies were getting closer and closer, their faces extremely ferocious, and they were about to pounce over in a swarm. Wen Baiyu's back of the neck was sweating coldly, and she really couldn't stand it anymore, unable to withstand the fear in her heart, so she immediately turned around and ran towards the tomb chamber.

  At this moment, in front of everyone, Wen Baiyu suddenly showed a terrified expression towards the stone wall and shouted "Wait..." before fainting.

  Tanuki stretched out his hand and caught him, not letting Wen Baiyu fall to the ground.

  Wen Baiyu's face was as white as paper, her lips were cyan-colored, and she looked particularly frightening. Her breathing was extremely rapid.

  Yu Wei Yang said: "Didn't we just settle this earlier? Why are you bringing it up again? If we keep going like this, someone is going to get hurt."

  The demonic beast touched Wen Baiyu's forehead and said: "Master is not doing well, this poison is too overbearing, I am also powerless to do anything..."

  As he was speaking, Wen Baiyu, who had been unconscious, suddenly opened her eyes. A pair of pitch-black pupils snapped open in the dimly lit corridor, startling everyone.

  Wen Baiyu's eyes showed a struggle, as if enduring something, but in the end he couldn't hold back, suddenly pushing the beast away, getting up from the ground and rushing into the depths of the passage.

  The beast that was dressed in seven coarse and eight fine clothes got up from the ground, looked at the white feathers quickly disappearing into the corridor, and said: "What's going on? Chase after it quickly!"

  The crowd ran over to chase, but Wen Baiyu suddenly took off running at an astonishing speed. Zi Che gritted his teeth and suddenly pulled out a gun, aiming at Wen Baiyu's calf. Just then, Wen Baiyu suddenly turned sideways and ran into a fork in the road.

  The kid cursed and said "damn it", by the time they rushed over, the person was already gone.

  Wen Baiyu felt someone was chasing him, he turned his head back and saw the corpse and skull getting closer and closer.

  Then there was a "whoosh" sound, and a yellowed hide came sweeping down from the top of the passageway, over the skulls and mummies, bringing with it a gust of eerie wind.

  Wen Baiyu was blown forward by that massive gust of wind, scrambling to get up, and when he turned his head back, it was actually Huo Mo's skin!

  Wen Baiyu can no longer distinguish whether it is an illusion or reality, everything is very real.

  Huǒ mó's skin was leaking with the last time being beaten out of the hole, and there were some burnt marks on the edge, like a worn-out blue cloth, but very arrogant, "heh heh" strange laugh, slowly approaching Wēn Bái Yǔ.

  Wen Baiyu took a deep breath, calming his mind, and grasped the dagger in his hand. The Flame Demon's skin suddenly swept over, and Wen Baiyu dodged to the side, the dagger slicing through with a "whoosh" sound, and surprisingly, it cut that ugly skin into two pieces.

  Huǒ mó de pí luò zài dì shàng, zhè ràng wēn bái yǔ jué dé fēi cháng bù kě sī yì, guǒ rán shì zì jǐ de huàn jiào ma.

  Translation:

  The Fire Demon's skin fell to the ground, which made Wen Baiyu feel extremely unbelievable, was it really his own illusion?

  Wen Baiyu looked up to see that the skull and mummy had disappeared, and everything around him was pitch black. He clearly remembered that his flashlight was tied to his arm, but now there was nothing on his arm, and there wasn't even a glimmer of light in the surrounding area.

  Wen Baiyu walked forward with her hand on the black wall and suddenly felt something wet and slippery on the wall.

  Wen Baiyu was so frightened that he withdrew his hand, and when he looked at it again, it was actually covered in red blood. He moved closer to the wall, and on the wall was a bloody handprint!

  Wen Baiyu subconsciously thought he was the one who got hurt, and pressed his hand against the wall. However, when he stretched out his hand to compare, the handprint on the wall was a circle bigger than his own hand... it wasn't his handprint...

  The handprint was still very fresh, dripping with blood. Wen Baiyu's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the person in front had left it? Had they encountered danger?

  Wen Baiyu adjusted his breathing and told himself that everything was an illusion, he couldn't be controlled by illusions, just like the corpse and skull earlier, he had to overcome the fear in his heart, or else he would scare himself to death, this way of dying was really too embarrassing.

  Wen Baiyu grasped the phoenix bone dagger, slowly moving forward. The walls were covered in bloody handprints, clear and fresh, with an increasingly strong smell of blood.

  Wen Baiyu suddenly opened his eyes wide, and he saw a pool of blood on the ground in the distance, with someone lying in it.

  Wen Baiyu's breathing quickened, and he kept telling himself in his heart that it was an illusion, an illusion, there was no blood. He slowly moved forward, but suddenly found that the one lying in the pool of blood was actually Wan Kuangjinghou!

  Wan Kuang Jing Hou lay in the pool of blood, his eyes closed, his face devoid of any vitality, as if he was asleep. Wen Bai Yu's heart thudded once, as if it had been heavily struck by someone.

  His mind was in a mess, he couldn't care about anything else, shouted out loud, gripped the dagger tightly in his hand and rushed forward, running towards Wan Jie Jing Hou in the pool of blood.

  Just as Wen Bai Yu was about to run over on horseback, he suddenly felt a void beneath his feet. "Ah..." he cried out, and his body began to sink downward, already beyond control.

  Very tall.

  Wen Baiyu thought he would definitely fall flat on his face, and then he heard a "Plop!!" sound. Wen Baiyu fell into the water with a huge splash, "Glug glug" choking on two mouthfuls of water.

  The feeling of drowning was extremely real, Wen Baiyu suddenly woke up from his illusion, he subconsciously wanted to hold his breath, but as soon as he did, his chest felt an intense pain, like being bitten by countless insects, besides the pain, there was also a numbness like being pricked by needles.

  Wen Baiyu choked down another mouthful of water, the suffocating feeling making his whole body go limp. However, he was somewhat unwilling to give up, tightly grasping the Fenggu bone dagger in his hand, his eyelids extremely heavy, his body exhausted.

  Wen Baiyu was caught off guard by the inertia of the fall and quickly sank to the bottom of the water...

  " Splash——" a sound of water.

  Wen Baiyu felt someone grab his chest and lift him up, but he was exhausted, had swallowed water, and couldn't open his eyes in a daze.

  Her chest was pressed down by a strong force, Wen Baiyu coughed violently twice, her chest cavity felt like it was going to explode from the pressure, making Wen Baiyu's head go "buzz", her whole body shook, and she suddenly opened her eyes wide.

  It seems like someone is staring at me with anxious eyes.

  Her eyelids were too heavy, and due to the stimulation of pain, her spirit was severely injured, she only woke up for a moment before falling back into darkness.

  Wen Baiyu felt like he was going to be tortured to death, his chest hurt terribly, but the man pressed hard on his chest cavity, he spat out several mouthfuls of water, and gradually felt his chest become much smoother.

  A warmth suddenly spread across his lips, someone pried open his tightly closed teeth with a warm tongue, pinched his chin and blew air in.

  "Cough...!"

  Wen Baiyu couldn't help but let out a violent cough, and as she opened her eyes dazedly, she found that the person in front of her was still gazing at her with an anxious expression.

  He is Wan Guizong Hou...

  Wen Baiyu's whole body was weak and paralyzed on the ground, Wan Jingshou's hair and body were also wet, seeing him wake up, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou let out a sigh of relief, then immediately furrowed his brow and said: "How did you end up here?"

  Wen Baiyu's chest heaved rapidly a couple of times, unable to speak, opening her mouth, but not uttering a single word.

  Wan Ji's expression was very cold, seemingly extremely disapproving of him coming over, and he repeated: "Why did you come over, wasn't it told to you not to come?"

  Wen Baiyu stretched out her hand and grabbed hold of Wan Qi Jinghou's wet sleeve with great effort, and as soon as she did, a handful of water dripped down.

  Wan Qi Jing Hou saw Wen Bai Yu's pale face, his heart skipped a beat, as if he had been twisted by someone, and then let out a sigh, seemingly helpless, yet seemingly resigned to defeat. Suddenly, he picked up Wen Bai Yu from the ground and held him tightly in his arms.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou whispered in his ear: "Bai Yu..."

  He immediately lowered his head and kissed Wen Baiyu's lips, Wan Jingshou's lips were very warm, Wen Baiyu was all wet, and he was a little cold, so he stretched out his hand to hold Wan Jingshou's back, opened his mouth, stuck out his tongue, and heavily breathed into Wan Jingshou.

  "Hmm..."

  Wen Baiyu tightly hugged the back of Wan Jingshou, his brain was a bit hypoxic, Wan Jingshou heard his panting and wanted to retreat, but Wen Baiyu hooked up his tongue and stuck to Wan Jingshou's lips, as if he didn't want to separate.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou's breathing became heavy, he wrapped his arms around Wen Bai Yu, and reached into the back of his clothes, warm palms caressing Wen Bai Yu's back.

  Wen Baiyu shivered, her whole body trembling. Her wet clothes clung to her skin, feeling cold, but Wan Jingshou's palms were scorching hot as they roamed over her back and waist, caressing her in a soothing motion that made her feel warm and comfortable again. Below, she began to stir with excitement.

  Wen Baiyu clung tightly to Wan Jieying, as if afraid that if he loosened his grip even a little, Wan Jieying would disappear. The two of them kissed for a long time, and Wen Baiyu let out a low moan in his throat before finally separating from Wan Jieying, but the other's hand was still probing inside his clothes.

  "Ah, so warm..."

  Wan Kuang Jing Hou's breathing paused, and he burst out laughing, pressing his forehead, saying: "What, you want me to take care of you here?"

  Wen Baiyu's old face turned slightly red, but after being separated from Wan Kuang Jinghou for so long, he really couldn't control himself. If it weren't for the fact that they were in a treacherous tomb, Wen Baiyu would have been even more impatient...

  Wan Qi Jing Hou's hand slipped into Wen Bai Yu's pants along his clothes and gently pinched him.

  "Ah!"

  Wen Baiyu was startled and quickly pulled in her legs, trembling all over.

  At this time, a voice suddenly sounded from the side, as if it couldn't bear it anymore, saying: "Hey, pay attention to your surroundings! Do you think we're dead or something!"

  He spoke up, and Wen Baiyu only then noticed that there was actually someone beside him!

  Moreover, it's not just one person, Xi Chi and Zhong Jian are also present. Zhong Jian has a thinner face, looking at the two people embracing each other excitedly, feeling a bit embarrassed, has already turned his back. Xi Chi, on the other hand, is standing with his hands on his hips and arms crossed, with a very disdainful expression.

  Wen Baiyu's face suddenly turned red, as if it could catch fire. To be honest, he really hadn't noticed Xi Chi and Zhong Jian earlier. Wen Baiyu could say without pretension that his eyes had only been on Wan Jingshou just now!

  Xi Chi and Zhong Jian had already become background props, Xi Chi opened his mouth, and scared Wen Bai Yu for a moment, not knowing where he suddenly appeared from.

  Xī Chí and Zhōng Jiǎn were also soaked to the bone, dripping wet. Xī Chí looked at Wēn Bái Yǔ with disdain and said: "Luckily we fell into the water to save you, but it turns out you're just flirting here...and still want to take up arms..."

  Zhong Jian pulled Xi Chi back and told him to stop talking, feeling a bit embarrassed just listening.

  Xie Chi naturally knew that his family's Zhong Jian was a straightforward person, thin-skinned, and after humming a sound, he didn't say anything else.

  Wen Baiyu saw the two people's reaction was slow, and then suddenly "ah" a sound, as if remembering something, touched his chest for a while, and then let out a sigh of relief. Fortunately, when he fell into the water earlier, the box in his chest did not float away.

  Wen Baiyu quickly took out the box and opened it, inside was a round red pill.

  Xie Chi was discerning, and at a glance, he saw that this was actually an elixir of immortality.

  Wen Baiyu handed the antidote to Xi Chi and said, "Quickly give it to your husband, we got three of them. Gan Zhu was seriously injured at that time, so he ate one, another one was given to Tang Zi, and the last one is just right for Zhong Jian to eat."

  Xi Chi was slightly excited, his hands holding the box were trembling. He had been searching for Phoenix Blood for so long, and it was already a rare thing to come across, let alone this kind of elixir that granted immortality.

  The elixir of immortality can only be obtained after the phoenix is burned to death by the fire of the immortal tree, and this medicine fears the earth. Once it falls into the ground, it will disappear and become a legendary thing.

  Xī Chí's breathing became difficult, so he hastily took out the antidote and handed it to Zhōng Jiǎn. Seeing Xī Chí's agitated state, Zhōng Jiǎn gently patted his back before taking the medicine from Xī Chí's palm and swallowing it directly.

  Xī zhì zhēng dà le yǎn jing, shuō: "Gǎn jué zhè me yàng?"

  Translation:

  Xi Zhi opened his eyes wide and said: "How does it feel?"

  Zhong Jian smiled and said, "It's warm and comforting when you eat it."

  Xie Chi nodded and said: "The elixir of immortality is a product of the Fenghuang fire burning the undying tree, it's naturally a positive yang object."

  Wen Baiyu smiled complacently and said, "Thank us, if we hadn't entered Kunlun Mountain to meet you, how would you have found the elixir of immortality? Now it's all settled, you and Zhong Jian can continue your love affair, and Zhong Jian can continue to raise children."

  Xie Chi kicked Wen Baiyu and said: "Get out, what kind of way is this to raise a child."

  Wan Kuang Jing Hou helped Wen Bai Yu sit up and then tidied his clothes, saying: "How many more people have entered Kunlun Mountain?"

  Wen Baiyu smiled and said: "Everyone who can come has arrived."

  He said, suddenly frowning and saying: "But I think I just had an illusion, and got separated from them."

  Wen Baiyu said as he raised his hand and saw a dark bruise on the back of it.

  Wan Qi Jing Hou furrowed his brow, lifted the back of his hand, stuck out his tongue and licked his dark blue-black wound.

  Wen Baiyu felt a warmth, then a coolness, and after shrinking her hand, she saw that the bruise on the back of her hand had faded a bit, and she couldn't help but widen her eyes in curiosity.

  Wan Kui Jing Hou lifted his sleeve, and saw that there were also dark purple marks on it. He then stretched out his hand to pull open his clothes, and Xi Chi stood beside him, giggling.

  Wen Bai's face turned red, but Wan Qi Jing Hou thought it was nothing to be ashamed of when checking for poisoning, this is quite normal!

  Wan Qi Jing Hou opened Wen Bai Yu's clothes and saw that Wen Bai Yu's chest was a dark purple color. Wen Bai Yu widened his eyes and said, "No wonder my chest hurts, how did it get so black!"

  Wan Ji Jing Hou said, "Although this tomb doesn't have any buried zongzi, there are many mechanisms and poisonous substances to prevent grave robbers. We must find the antidote as soon as possible."

  Wen Baiyu let out a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Wan Xizong didn't lower his head to lick his chest, or else he would have lost face in front of so many people.

  Wan Jie Jing Hou stood up, and Wen Bai Yu felt a little disappointed again. His clothes were already open, but Wan Jie Jing Hou was still so calm and unaffected.

  Wen Baiyu thought to herself, "I should give myself a good scolding. Is it because I've been too tired these past few days and haven't masturbated, that's why I'm feeling extremely hungry/thirsty?"

  Wan Kuang Jing Hou pulled Wen Bai Yu up from the ground, and Wen Bai Yu let out a "hiss" sound, his chest hurting a bit.

  Wen Baiyu said: "Why can't I see Huashe and Hundun?"

  "Relax, they're both fine. We just split up and didn't expect to run into you here."

  Wen Baiyu nodded, he was a bit worried about Tangzi and the others, but didn't know where they were now.

  Wen Baiyu said: "Where are we now?"

  Wan Qi Jing Hou said: "The second floor of the underground palace."

  Wen Baiyu said in surprise: "Two layers?"

  Wan Qi Jing Hou nodded, and Wen Bai Yu looked up to see that the back was a lake of water, very clear, made into a pool-like shape. He raised his head to look, and saw that in a very high place, there seemed to be an opening of a small, dark mouth, and he had actually fallen from that place?

  That fall was quite accurate, if it had fallen a bit crooked and hit the shore, wouldn't that have splattered brains everywhere!

  Just as they were talking, Wan Xi Jing Hou suddenly looked up and said, "It's here."

  Wen Baiyu's expression tensed up for a moment, and then he vaguely saw something dangling down from the small opening above their heads. The thing was very long and fell right in front of them. Wen Baiyu finally got a clear look at it - it was a climbing rope.

  Then several people slid down along the rope, and Tangzi was walking in the front.

  Tang Zi saw Wen Baiyu and then saw Wan Kui Jinghou, only then did he let out a sigh of relief, saying: "It's good that Wen Baiyu is fine."

  Everyone came down one by one from the small opening above, and everyone let out a sigh of relief.

  "Big sister, you scared us to death! You suddenly ran off and ran so fast that we couldn't catch up with you."

  Everyone was present, Gan Zhu looked around and said: "Where's Hun Dun?"

  Wen Baiyu comforted him by saying: "Don't worry, Jiaozi and we will cooperate separately, it's okay, soon we'll meet again."

  Wan Kuang Jing Hou nodded and said: "First go give Wen Bai Yu the antidote."

  He said, and turned back first, walking in the opposite direction of the lake waterway. The crowd hurried to follow up.

  The little beast ran over and hung on Wen Baiyu's shoulder, saying: "Master, master, you scared me to death! Fortunately, you're fine, waaahhhh..."

  Wen Baiyu was annoyed by him and her temples were throbbing, she knocked on his head and said: "Stop pretending to be innocent, Huashe is not here either, who are you pretending for?"

  He let out a low growl and then fell silent, his two hands wrapping around Wen Baiyu's neck. Wen Baiyu felt that he had suddenly become very clingy, holding him extremely tightly.

  The crowd followed Wan Gui Jing Hou into the inner courtyard, walking very quickly. Wan Gui Jing Hou was extremely familiar with the terrain and operated the mechanism as if it were second nature to him.

  Wen Baiyu stared with wide eyes and a tongue-tied expression, while Xi Chi smiled and said: "We've walked this path twice already, each time led by Wan Qi Jing Hou."

  As they spoke, they entered a huge tomb chamber that looked like it was used for sacrificial purposes. The four walls of the tomb chamber were carved with phoenix patterns, and there were four long-lasting lamps in the east, south, west, and north. In the middle, there was a large altar with two small lamps on top, also in the shape of phoenixes.

  Shi Xun said: "This King of Chu really likes phoenixes, they all look like phoenixes."

  Wan Qi Jing Hou's gaze swept over Wen Bai Yu lightly, but he didn't say a word.

  The tomb is also very empty, except for a large altar in the middle, with several coffins on the side, but without looking, it can be known that the coffin boards are all leaning against the coffins and placed on the side, which must be empty inside.

  Wan Qi Jing Hou walked over, and Wen Bai Yu saw a stone box placed on the altar.

  Wan Kuang Jing Hou stretched out his hand and opened the stone lid. To his surprise, a huge green frog was lying inside the box!

  Wen Baiyu had never seen such a huge frog before, and this frog was incredibly ugly. The frog was gray-green in color, with protective scales on its body that resembled fish scales, like armor. Its mouth was like a large plate, with its lower jaw curled up, and the skin on its neck was thick and wrinkled, with a bunch of folds. Its two eyes were very large, but compared to the plate-like mouth, they seemed too small.

  The frog's front and hind legs were particularly sturdy, squatting in a huge stone box, motionless, as if asleep.

  Wen Baiyu didn't like this kind of thing very much. The croaking of frogs sounded like the rustling of zongzi (glutinous rice dumplings). Since he had been caught in a downpour, he disliked it even more.

  Wen Baiyu hid behind General Wan Jinhou and said, "Is this alive or dead?"

  Wan Xi Jing Hou was very calm and said: "Dead, dead for a long time, just preserved relatively well."

  He said, stretching out his hand to grab the frog, Wen Baiyu hastily blocked Wan Qi Jing Hou and asked: "What do you want to do?"

  Wan Xi Jing Hou said seriously: "You were poisoned by the lizard, this devil frog is specially used to restrain the lizard and can detoxify you."

  Wen Baiyu hesitated and said: "How can it be... isn't it already dead?"

  Wan Qi Jing Hou didn't move the frog, instead he took out fire starting tools from his backpack. Wen Bai Yu's eyes widened as Wan Qi Jing Hou said: "It's fine to eat it, but you probably won't eat it raw..."

  So looking at Wang Qi Jing Hou's actions, he should be trying to help him roast it thoroughly!

  Everyone immediately looked at Wen Baiyu with a sympathetic gaze.

  When eating hot pot and barbecue, Wen Baiyu also ate a lot of bullfrogs. The fresh bullfrog meat was very delicious, but that was when Wen Baiyu didn't see the shape. Eating it was completely worry-free.

  Furthermore, when people normally eat fish, they also eat some properly sized fish. When the fish grows to a certain size, it's not just that eating it is out of the question, even looking at it feels frightening. This devil frog is many times larger than an ordinary green tree frog, and its body has scales; under the scales is mottled skin.

  Wen Bai didn't even want to give him a second glance.

  Wan Qi Jing Hou's movements were very natural, taking out the things, Tang Zi cooperated to light the fire and even helped take out an iron bowl that could be heated on the fire.

  Xie Chi patted Wen Baiyu's shoulder and said, "Hey, you're in luck! This ancient demon frog is so old that eating it can make you immune to all poisons. You're so weak, you should eat more of it. But looking at your small frame, I'm afraid eating two big legs would be enough to burst your stomach."

  Wen Baiyu glared at Xi Chi and said: "Between us two, who is shorter? I'm more than half a head taller than you!"

  He said, stretching out his hand to compare with Xi Qi's height.

  Xi Chi let out a low hum, patted Zhong Jian's back with his hand, and Zhong Jian squatted down to carry him on his back. "Don't bother Wen Baiyu anymore," he said. "He was poisoned, let him rest more."

  He hung on his back, pouted, and suddenly leaned over to kiss Zhong Jian's neck. Zhong Jian was made very impatient by him.

  Mo Xi Jing Hou's movements were very skilled, and soon the devil frog was cooked. Everyone added some seasonings they had brought with them, and let Wen Bai Yu eat.

  Wen Baiyu gritted her teeth, furrowed her brow, and took a bite like a daredevil, then swallowed without even chewing. She stretched her neck and stared with wide eyes as she choked.

  Everyone else was standing around watching Wen Baiyu eat the "antidote".

  After eating half a leg, the taste was really not good at all. It didn't have the freshness of bullfrog meat. Maybe it's because the devil frog has been dead for too long. The meat is as hard as stone and they don't have any seasonings either. Adding to that, Wan Zonghou's cooking skills are also quite poor, so it's already not bad that Wen Baiyu can swallow it down.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou saw Wen Bai Yu's face turn red from holding back his laughter, and wiped his mouth for him, smiling and saying: "Is it that hard to eat?"

  "Wen Baiyu glared at him and said: 'You try it!'"

  Yu Wei Yang smiled and said: "However, I see that your complexion has improved, it's not as pale as before, the previous paleness was frightening."

  Wen Baiyu lowered her head to take a look at the back of her hand, the blue mark had completely disappeared, and the marks on her arm were also gone. She lifted up her clothes to take a look, there was still a faint blue mark on her chest, but it could be seen that it was slowly fading away.

  Wen Baiyu said: "Don't mention it, although it's hard to eat, but the effect is quite good."

  Wan Xi Jing Hou said, "That's natural, this is the antidote that was presented as tribute back then. Although it has been placed in the tomb for several thousand years, since the seal of this tomb is good, the Magic Toad hasn't rotted and its efficacy hasn't dissipated too much."

  Wan Kuang Jing Hou said, Wen Bai Yu suddenly felt a bit nauseous, released for several thousand years, don't know if it's past the expiration date!

  Wen Baiyu neutralized the poison, and everyone extinguished the fire. They were about to continue moving forward to merge with He Yao's group.

  At this time, the beast was staring at the remaining half of the devil frog with eager eyes.

  Wen Baiyu's forehead jumped and said: "Do rabbits eat meat?"

  The demon beast said, "You don't know that this poisonous frog is the coldest thing. It's a sacred object that uses poison to attack poison and can overcome hundreds of poisons. And it has been placed in the tomb for so long, absorbing the yin and yang energies. That's a good thing, leaving it here would be a waste."

  The beast spoke, and then hastily jumped over, almost grabbing the devil frog, making a "rustling" sound, and burying its head to eat. The action was extremely terrifying, as if it wasn't eating something, but tearing apart a living creature.

  Wen Baiyu was startled, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and took a step back. The beast's body was small and thin, even smaller than Xi Chi. Normally, it looked harmless, and it was an ancient spiritual beast, not a fierce beast. It could be said that except for having some spiritual power, it had no combat power at all. How could it suddenly reveal such a ferocious side?

  Wen Baiyu's mind was racing with a thousand thoughts, had she been poisoned? Was she hallucinating? Or...

  Wen Baiyu's mind flashed, and he felt that something was amiss. Just now, when everyone came down from the first floor through the hole with the rope, Gan Zhu's first question was where Hun Dun was. The relationship between Hun Dun and Hua She was so good that they were always together, inseparable for a moment. This time, when they met, they didn't even care about Hua She!

  Her eyes flashed white and she suddenly said: "Who are you?"

  The beast stared blankly for a moment, then lifted its head. Its mouth and face were still stained with the devil frog's skin and flesh, looking exceptionally terrifying.

  The beast smiled and said: "Master, what are you talking about?"

  Wen Baiyu's heart was racing especially fast, she reached out and grasped Wang Qi Jing Hou's hand, pinching his palm slightly to remind him.

  Wen Baiyu said: "You're not a ferocious beast."

  The demonic beast tilted its head and said: "Master, what are you talking about? I'm not a demonic beast, what am I then? Master, the poison on your body hasn't been cleared yet, has it?"

  As soon as Wen Baiyu spoke, everyone began to be on their guard. From the moment the beast suddenly bit the demon frog, people had already started to feel strange. Wen Baiyu's words dispelled the doubts in their minds.

  This is not a pangolin.

  Everyone be on guard, the beast then let go of the devil frog in his hand, slowly stood up, licked his palm and said: "Master, why are you looking at me like that? I am a beast."

  He said, slowly walking over, Wen Baiyu took a step back, and Wan Jingshou blocked him with his outstretched hand. Wen Baiyu quickly pulled out the Longlin dagger and stuffed it into Wan Jingshou's palm.

  Shi Xu and his son Che then raised their guns, taking aim at the beast.

  The gluttonous beast saw that everyone was on their guard and said, "Master, I just really wanted to eat the devil frog earlier, but you didn't eat it, what a waste."

  Wen Baiyu said: "You just said that the Devil Frog is a cold thing, and the Nao Beast doesn't need such a cold thing at all. You want to eat it because you want to supplement your Yin energy."

  The monster was suddenly laughing "heh heh heh", its laughter growing sharper and more shrill, as it tore at its own face with its hands.

  Everyone took a cold breath and exclaimed "Ah!"

  Only to see the fake beast tearing off its own skin, it was actually Huo Mo's skin.

  The child vehicle "pa" lifted the gun to shoot, but Huo Mo's skin smiled and said: "You must not act rashly, my skin is wrapped around the body of the Jiao beast, if you want to kill or fight, you will have to take the Jiao beast together."

  As soon as he spoke, the child's aiming motion suddenly paused for a moment.

  Huǒ mó de pí guài xiào qǐ lái，yòu chóng xīn fū zhù suān shòu，ránhòu xiào zhe shuō:“wǎng hòu tuì，quán dōu wǎng hòu tuì.”

  Translation:

  The Fire Demon's skin monster laughed and wrapped the beast again, then laughed and said: "All of you retreat, all of you retreat back."

  That skin had someone's life in his hands, and everyone could only retreat backwards. Huo Mo's skin walked out of the tomb, smiling at Wan Qi Jing Hou: "Lead the way."

  Wan Xi Jing Hou looked at him without moving, and Huo Mo's skin burst out laughing, saying: "How about it, don't you want to lead the way? You should be very familiar with the roads here, wanting to set a trap for me, but I am the true Fire God! All of your actions are in vain, just a group of pitiful ants! If you don't lead the way, I'll kill Nao Shou right now..."

  As he was saying this, he suddenly heard a "bang" and something fell from above his head, hitting him right on the brain.

  "Rustle rustle......"

  A very slight noise, everyone's eyes turned to it, and the result was that the thing that had been smashed to the ground by Huo Mo was white and powdery, with a tender green core exposed inside, about the size of a small pebble.

  Everyone was shocked and hadn't reacted yet, but it turned out to be a peach!

  "Hey!"

  There was a sound coming from the top of his head, Huo Mo raised his head and saw that on the narrow edge of the door frame of the tomb chamber, someone was actually squatting there, peeling melon seeds and throwing the skins down, sprinkling them all over Huo Mo's head.

  What chaos!

  Hun Dun was cracking melon seeds on one side, and suddenly shouted, then with a very leisurely movement, poured a bucket of something from the top of his head, just pouring it all over Huo Mo.

  Huǒ mó's skin was wrapped around the Xū Shòu, and that ** splash, actually let out a loud cry, Wēn Bái Yǔ suddenly smelled a bloody smell, Hùn Dùn actually splashed a can of blood from above.

  The fire demon seemed to be extremely afraid of this blood, and let out a miserable scream. Just then, a loud gust of wind came over, and the dark green giant snake tail suddenly coiled around the fire demon, wrapping it up. The sound of "hiss" was heard, and the fire demon let out another mournful cry as its skin was ripped off by the snake.

  Huǒ mó de pí yī shēn dōu shì xuè, bèi sī xià lái zhī hòu, "suō——" de yī shēng jiù fēi zǒu le, xiāo shī zài hēi àn de mù dào lǐ.

  The Flame Demon's skin disappeared, and the beast wrapped inside appeared before everyone. The beast let out a loud thud as it fell to the ground, transforming from a snake into human form, and then picked up the beast.

  The monster's body was still covered in the chaotic splattered blood, he dazedly opened his eyes, wiped his face and found that there was a lot of blood, frightened by a sudden chill, saying: "What is this!"

  Hun Dun jumped down from the door frame at this time, smiling and rubbing peanuts, saying: "Don't worry, it's not your blood, it's black dog blood, I finally got it with great difficulty."

  "......"

  Wen Baiyu saw that the beast was gone and finally let out a sigh of relief, and everyone had also gathered together. Huashe and Hundun were not injured either.

  The snake wiped all the blood off the beast's body, and the beast hung its rabbit ears down, looking at the red hair dyed on its own ears, and said with a pouted mouth: "Every time you get me covered in blood, my fur was just white again, and now it's turned red again."

  The snake smiled and kissed the rabbit's ear, saying "I like red too."

  The beast's ears perked up with a "ting", its two ears twitching, and its round eyes stared at the snake and said, "Really?"

  The snake nodded and kissed his ear, the beast's ears shook, and he wrapped his arms around the snake's neck, pouting and saying "Kiss here, kiss here!"

  Wen Baiyu: "......"

  Gan Zhuo and Hun Dun hadn't seen each other for a long time. Hun Dun chuckled and leaned in, saying: "How did you suddenly get lost? You worried me for half a day, but it looks like nothing's wrong."

  He said, rubbing a peanut and stuffing it into Gan Zhu's mouth. Gan Zhu looked at the black dog blood on his palm, first frowned, then took a puff, and then bit down on Hun Dun's finger.

  "My hands aren't good to eat!"

  "Come on, there's still a long way to go inside, we don't have much time."

  He said, and the crowd followed closely, Wen Baiyu told Hun Dun about the discovery of Gan Zhuo's weak breath by the lake.

  Hun Dun was shocked and asked Gan Xing: "You were so badly injured, why didn't you tell me?"

  While talking, he was also cracking melon seeds and throwing the shells all over the floor.

  Gan Zhu said lightly: "Nothing, after all, I'm only 17th or 18th in your heart, you'd better keep eating melon seeds."

  He said that Wen Baiyu burst out laughing with a "pfft" sound, and Gan Zhu was really too ridiculous. Was he competing with Gua Zi for attention?

  Hun Dun suddenly felt the melon seeds in his mouth tasteless, he spat out the melon seed skin and put all the melon seeds back into his pocket, saying: "Then...can't I not eat melon seeds?"

  Gan wished to see his pitiful appearance, and suddenly felt some heartache. He himself was just joking around, so he quickly comforted Hun Dun for a couple of sentences, saying: "I'm telling you a joke, of course I didn't want you to worry, anyway nothing's wrong now."

  As soon as he heard the commotion, he burst out laughing and took out the melon seeds to eat again, saying: "Oh my god, I was scared to death! If I really couldn't eat melon seeds, it would be unbearable!"

  Gan Zhu: "......"

  Gluttony watched from one side, shaking his head and saying: "It's simply embarrassing for our ferocious beasts!"

  Everyone walked in and kept going, Wen Baiyu said: "Why have we only encountered so few big gates? Isn't it supposed to be nine layers?"

  Wan Qi Jing Hou said: "The nine major gates are surrounded by a total of nine layers around the tomb, we can only walk in and meet at most half."

  Wen Baiyu nodded, so it was like this, this underground palace was indeed big enough.

  They kept going in, with Wan Jie Jing Hou leading the way. The whole journey was very smooth, and when they encountered mechanisms, Wan Jie Jing Hou also knew about them in advance, it was simply unimpeded.

  Suddenly, a large gate appeared in front of me. After opening the bronze gate, I didn't walk far before another thousand-pound weight dropped behind me. The gate was opened, and below it was pinched by something metal. It looked like Wang Jing Hou and his group had been here before.

  The thousand-pound gate did not fully rise, and Wen Baiyu and others ducked in. At first glance, he saw Jiuming and Donghai, and everyone was gathered together. Jiuming and Donghai were not injured.

  This is an enormous tomb chamber.

  The four sides are carved with vivid murals, each side is a phoenix, the wall is golden, no longer a monotonous relief, inlaid with various gems.

  Four huge wall surfaces, each phoenix is piled up with white jade stones, the feathers are carved like real ones, and a giant long-lasting lamp is lit on each of the four sides, the lamp god is as high as half a tomb chamber.

  A huge flame was set off against the golden light all around, with a starry sky flowing above its head. The tombstone was made of transparent gemstones and filled with mercury inside, which was mixed with various gemstones twinkling like stars.

  Everyone was stunned, and Shi Xu sighed softly, saying: "Indeed, King Xiang is very rich, this must be the main tomb chamber!"

  In the center of the magnificent tomb, there were two coffins. The one on the right was already open, with jade stone fragments scattered all over the outside and the coffin lid flipped to the side. Inside, it was surprisingly empty.

  There were a large number of burial objects in the coffin, gold, silver, jade and stone, all of which were treasured heirlooms. However, there was no corpse. From these burial objects, it is absolutely not a pseudo tomb.

  The coffin on the left is intact, not a thread was damaged.

  The outermost layer of the coffin is made of jade, flawless white jade, with a phoenix carved on it, its wings spread wide. The phoenix's eyes are made of rubies, shining brightly under the light of the long-lasting lamp.

  Wen Baiyu's mind suddenly went "buzz", he seemed to feel something, a tense atmosphere swept over him, Wen Baiyu's heart was pounding like a drum, making him anxious and flustered.

  He was somewhat afraid of what was inside the coffin, yet he also looked forward to opening it.

  Wen Baiyu suddenly remembered what the beast had said: "Who would want to see their own corpse?"

  Wen Baiyu's mind was in a mess, and suddenly everything went black before his eyes. For a moment, he lost consciousness, and then he heard Wan Jinhou shouting "Baiyu" beside him, followed by the feeling of being supported by someone's hand.

  Wen Baiyu just blacked out for a few seconds in front of his eyes, and soon recovered. Wan Xizonghou looked at him with concern in his eyes.

  Wan Qi Jing Hou said: "Where is uncomfortable?"

  Wen Baiyu waved his hand and indicated that he was fine, then stood up from the ground.

  Wan Kuang said: "Open the coffin and take a look."

  Wen Baiyu's eyes fixed on the coffin, slowly walking over, stretching out her hand to touch the icy white jade, the warm feeling of the white jade suddenly surged up, and the white jade quickly became warm with Wen Baiyu's body temperature.

  Wen Baiyu didn't know if it was an illusion, but he suddenly felt that the ruby eyes on the jade coffin were becoming brighter and brighter, reflecting the flames of the Longming lamp.

  Wen Bai's hand trembled slightly as she slowly reached out and gently touched the ruby eyes.

  "Crack!"

  A crisp sound, everyone was startled, and then the jade coffin made a "click" sound, followed by a loud crack as it split open on both sides, revealing the inner coffin inside.

  Wen Baiyu was startled, and opened a coffin within a coffin. Wen Baiyu seemed to feel that the things inside made his heart beat even faster, as if something was about to emerge, just separated by several layers of coffins, and was about to break out of its shell.

  His hands shook violently, his breathing became rapid, and his face turned pale.

  The beast let out a loud cry: "Master..."

  Wen Baiyu controlled his hands, lifted his head, glanced at the crowd, and finally fixed his gaze on Wan Jijinghou. Wan Jijinghou walked over, grasped his hand, and said, "What's wrong? Your palms are very cold."

  Wen Baiyu shook her head and said: "I don't know... I always feel that the things inside..."

  He said, lightly placing his hand on the second layer of copper coffin, "Boom!" A loud noise, the copper coffin suddenly burst open in all directions, and it was easily opened.

  The innermost layer was revealed to the crowd, a wooden coffin, the wood without varnish, maintaining its original color, emitting a faint red glow, surprisingly similar to the color of the undead tree they saw before.

  Wen Bai's trembling hand reached out and touched it, the lid of the coffin had a warm feeling, exactly the same as the Undead Tree.

  "Wen Baiyu was taken aback and said: 'This... this coffin is?'"

  Wan Xi Jing Hou let out a bitter laugh and said, "Perhaps only a tyrant would think of using an undying tree to make a coffin. I have committed too many sins..."

  He said, gently stroking the lid of the coffin, "Bai Yu, open it and take a look."

  Wen Baiyu was at a loss, the coffin lid was extremely thick and heavy. He took out the Fenggu dagger and inserted it into the gap in the coffin, using a bit of force to pry it open.

  With a "creak", the coffin's lid was not as heavy as he had imagined, and it opened with a slight push, revealing a stitched-up corpse.

  Wen Baiyu's heart was racing wildly, and the dizzying feeling that was close to the truth made his hands and feet tremble, and his breathing became urgent.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou's hand was placed on top of his palm, as if comforting Wen Bai Yu, then slightly exerted force, and a loud rumbling sound was heard. The coffin lid made of undead tree wood was pushed open by the two, and under the illumination of the Long Ming lamp, the scene inside the coffin suddenly appeared before everyone's eyes.

  Under the warm yellow light of the Longming lamp, a man wearing a white long gown and with black long hair scattered about lay inside.

  "Wen Baiyu took a deep breath, and that person was exactly the same as himself, whether it was height, figure, or appearance. If there was any difference, that person had long hair and wore ancient attire, while Wen Baiyu wore modern clothes and had short hair."

  The person in the coffin was peacefully closing his eyes, he had no breath, as if he had been sleeping here for a long time.

  Wen Baiyu suddenly remembered the dream he had made, and it was too similar to the dream. This white-clothed man was too familiar.

  Wen Baiyu looked at Wan Jijinghou in surprise and said: "This... is this Hong Yu?"

  Wan Xi Jing Hou nodded and then said: "This is your physical body."

  Wen Baiyu was somewhat taken aback, and Wan Jingshou said: "I don't want you to go down this fight, I'm afraid of scaring you, besides, nobody likes to see their own corpse..."

  Hundun exclaimed: "Ah!", saying: "Wen Baiyu's situation is similar to mine, it turns out that Wen Baiyu was the Yuan Ying of Hong Yu."

  Wen Baiyu was a bit puzzled about what the yuan fetus was, and Hun Dun said that the yuan fetus was the divine consciousness after peeling off the flesh. The yuan fetus is very weak and will grow slowly, but the yuan fetus is just the divine consciousness. If there is no flesh, when the yuan fetus accumulates to a certain strength, it will be difficult to control.

  Wen Baiyu suddenly thought of himself often having sudden chest tightness before, but couldn't vent it out, as if there was a fire burning.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou grasped his shoulder and said, "Firstly, you said we can't be passive anymore. Secondly, your body is starting to suffer from its own power. If you don't retrieve your physical body soon, I'm afraid you'll be in a lot of pain. I was thinking of waiting until this matter is over and then quietly bringing back your physical body, but instead, you came here."

  Wen Baiyu initially felt a little fear, after all, the person lying in the coffin was herself. She looked at her own corpse, and this feeling was really too subtle. However, she didn't know why, but she always felt that Wan Jinhou was by her side. This feeling wasn't anything out of the ordinary either.

  What surprised Wen Baiyu was that it was no wonder he had been having strange dreams all along, seeing everything about Hong Yu, and it turned out that he was actually Hong Yu. Wen Baiyu's heart was a little shocked, but soon felt that there was nothing to be shocked about.

  Wen Baiyu tilted her head to look in the direction of Wan Kuang Jing Hou and pointed to the coffin beside her, saying: "That is..."

  Wan Kuang Jing Hou let out a bitter laugh and said: "That is my coffin."

  Wen Baiyu's heart tightened, and several scenes flashed through his mind. He held the lifeless man in his arms, feeling his breath stop, and pain swept everything away. He personally put the man into the coffin.

  Wen Baiyu was a bit suffocated, his chest heaving rapidly. Wan Jingshou grabbed his hand and comforted him, saying: "Baiyu, it's okay, I'm fine...I'm really fine..."

  Everyone was talking, when suddenly a loud "Boom!!" sound was heard, the thousand-pound weight suddenly fell down, with a loud "Rumble!" sound, the thousand-pound weight slammed to the ground, immediately sealing off the tomb.

  The flames of the four long-life lamps flickered rapidly, and suddenly a "puff" sound was heard. The fires of the four lamps were simultaneously extinguished by a strong gust of wind, and the tomb chamber suddenly turned dark.

  Wen Baiyu's heart tightened, and Wan Qi Jinghou grasped his palm, saying: "It's here."
