Ling Yufei pondered for a moment, then swept his seven-hole dingyin sword in the direction of the snakes, and at the same time, a sudden noise arose.

Lan Qiao knew that he wanted to use the "noise" in his Ling Yin sword technique to force the snakes back, so he quickly signaled to Bai Xueyin, and they both covered their ears.

Ling Yufei brandished the seven-hole tuning sword and made a harsh sword whistle, but the snakes remained unmoved at all and continued to approach the right ear chamber.

Lan Qiao said in shock, "How come these broken snakes are not afraid of the whistle of your sword? Could it be that they have no hearing?"

Ling Yufei snorted coldly, returned the sword to its sheath and said, "They can't hear the sound, so they are not affected by the noise."

Li Zhuer heard their conversation, poked her head out of the ear room, and was immediately stunned by the endless group of snakes in front of her. She stroked her neck with one hand, covered her mouth with the other, and suddenly vomited with a "wow" sound.

come out.

She had not eaten for nearly a day, and only the acid water in her stomach seeped out from between her fingers. Her whole body was hunched over like a shrimp, and she kept coughing.

Ling Yufei knew that she was so frightened that her legs were weak, so he hurriedly carried her back to the ear room. Lan Qiao also said to Bai Xueyin, "Go back first and guard the stone gate."

Bai Xueyin nodded, and returned to the ear room with Lan Qiao, then closed the stone door and stood guard by the door vigilantly.

Sure enough, within a moment of burning the incense, a strange snake poked its head out from the crack in the door.

Without hesitation, Lan Qiao swung his sword down, stabbing seven inches of the snake accurately, killing the strange snake.

Soon a second snake came in, and then a third.

Lan Qiao and Bai Xueyin were like two door gods guarding the door. They would kill every strange snake that came in. A small pile of snake carcasses was soon piled up at the stone door, and the ear room was filled with a fishy smell.

"Brother Yu Fei..." Li Zhuer said with a pale face, "We won't die here, right? I don't want to be eaten by them."

Ling Yufei looked solemn and said, "There are too many snakes out there. How can we kill them all one by one?"

Lan Qiao waved the light sword repeatedly and almost mindlessly while saying, "Then what do you mean, are the three of us taking turns or something?"

Ling Yufei smiled bitterly and took Bai Xueyin's place. Bai Xueyin was able to rest and walked silently behind Lan Qiao, pressing his palms on his back and using his true energy to help him maintain his skills.

Li Zhuer said worriedly, "No matter how powerful you are, you can't keep fighting endlessly. If you don't get eaten by the snake, you will die from exhaustion first."

At this time, Lan Qiao and Bai Xueyin exchanged positions again. Lan Qiao thought for a while and said, "Why don't we block the crack in the door so that these weird snakes can't get in."

Ling Yufei said, "It's a good idea, but why bother?"

Lan Qiao glanced at the scattered black crystal fragments, launched two palm winds, and pushed these fragments to gather near the crack of the door.

He took off his outer robe and originally wanted to use his robe to wrap up the broken crystals and plug the cracks in the door. Unexpectedly, when the strange snakes that came in saw the broken pieces, they turned around and ran away like a mouse seeing a cat. Not only was Lan Qiao extremely surprised,

Even the "door gods" on duty, Ling Yufei and Bai Xueyin, were very surprised.

Ling Yufei opened the stone door, stretched out his legs and swept the black crystal fragments out of the ear room, forming an arc outside the door, and pushed back several strange snakes that tried to get closer.

The group of snakes neighed uneasily, and the tide stopped moving forward. Hundreds of silver-headed monster snakes stopped outside the arc drawn by the black crystal fragments, surging anxiously and helplessly.

"Although I don't know why, they seem to be quite afraid of this kind of black crystal stone." Bai Xueyin breathed a long sigh of relief and reached out to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

Ling Yufei said in a deep voice, "Although we have temporarily prevented the approaching snakes, it is not an option to continue the stalemate like this."

"It can be blocked for a while." Lan Qiao sat down against the wall of the ear room and said, "Maybe after a few hours, these broken snakes won't be able to eat, and they will go to look for food elsewhere, or they will simply starve to death.

Outside, can’t we go out?”

"Waiting for them to starve to death?" Ling Yufei said with a mixture of laughter and laughter, "My brother Huaiyuan, I'm afraid you don't know how to write the words sit and wait to die. When they all starve to death, won't we starve to death?"

"We..." Lan Qiao suddenly rolled his eyes and almost laughed and said, "We can eat them."

"Ugh..." Li Zhuer almost vomited out again.

Lan Qiao did as he was told. He took a strange snake that had been stabbed to death by a sword and thought about it for a while. Then he carefully cut open the belly and removed the snake bones, leaving only the snake meat on the back and belly.

I grilled it vigorously until it was cooked. I tore off a piece and looked around and said, "I don't know if this thing is edible."

Bai Xueyin asked worriedly, "What if this snake meat is poisonous?"

"Is it poisonous? I can only try it now." Lan Qiao said, taking a small bite, chewing it and swallowing it.

Bai Xueyin, Ling Yufei and Li Zhuer's three pairs of eyes were fixed on Lan Qiao, observing his changes after eating snake meat.

Lan Qiao showed a strange look, then twitched violently, one hand pressed on his stomach, and the other reached into his mouth to scratch his throat.

After a period of vomiting, Lan Qiao gasped and said, "No, this meat is indeed poisonous. I just ate such a small piece, and I felt paralyzed and weak in my limbs. Then I started to feel sleepy and had hallucinations, as if I was going to be a man who would never wake up."

Big dream come true.”

Seeing Lan Qiao's painful expression, Bai Xueyin patted his back and said, "There is always a way, don't worry yet."

"What else can I do?" Li Zhuer, who was originally resistant to eating snake meat, now knew that snake meat was not allowed and became anxious again.

"There is no other way." Lan Qiao sighed, "We can only wait."

I was told to wait, but the wait lasted four days.

The continuous group of snakes were still blocked from the arc formed by the black crystal fragments, but they no longer had the vitality they had before. They moved slowly, and most of them just coiled in place quietly, occasionally waving their heads, necks or tails, without retreating.

It didn't move forward any further.

The situation of the four people in the ear room is not optimistic either. Lan Qiao, Bai Xueyin and Ling Yufei are just surviving, but Li Zhuer, who has not had enough food for many days, has reached the point where her fuel is exhausted.

Her skin was chapped, her cheeks were sunken, and her eyes were dull as she leaned in Ling Yufei's arms, motionless. Her already thin body seemed even thinner now, and even her breathing was weak.

Four days have passed, and although the snakes have not continued to advance, they have shown no signs of retreating. Although they are moving slowly now, it is still extremely dangerous if they want to get out.

"Brother Yu Fei..." Li Zhuer's voice was so hoarse that it was almost inaudible, "I may be dying soon. Even if there are not these strange snakes blocking the outside, there is still no exit in the entire tomb. Sooner or later, I will be trapped and die."

this."

Ling Yufei gently stroked her hair, but didn't know what to say to comfort her. Li Zhuer had never practiced internal strength, so even if he forcibly injected his energy into her fragile meridians, it would be difficult to truly maintain her physical strength.

function.

Seeing Li Zhuer becoming more and more haggard, the pain in Ling Yufei's heart was not tormenting him anymore?

"It's really not okay to sit still and wait for death." Lan Qiao, who was leaning on the stone wall on the other side, suddenly said, "Just now I suddenly remembered that there seemed to be two jars as high as half a person in the corner at the end of the left ear room on the opposite side.

I don’t know what’s inside.”

"You mean the room where the four closed moon glass beads were originally placed?" Ling Yufei raised his eyes slightly and looked at the left ear chamber opposite. Since the fire oil in the tomb chamber had burned out, the fire dragon that illuminated the entire space had already

Extinguished, the luminous pearl on the Blue Bridge once again became the only source of light for everyone.

"You can't see it from this angle." Lan Qiao said, "Actually, I'm not entirely sure. I just have a vague impression that there are two large jars placed in the two corners of the ear room."

Ling Yufei said lightly, "Maybe it's just a decoration or a funerary object. There may not be anything inside."

Lan Qiao said, "A dead horse is a living doctor. Sister Zhu'er is like this. She has to give it a damn try."

Bai Xueyin reminded him, "Even if there is water in those two jars, how can you still drink it after it has been there for nearly two hundred years?"

"You have to open it and take a look to find out what's in the jar." After Lan Qiao said that, he picked up the light sword and walked towards the "dam" made of broken crystals outside the door. He turned back and smiled and said, "Wait, I'll be there as soon as I can."
