As soon as we entered the tomb, we felt a strong, nauseating smell of blood coming from inside.
Qin Ruoxuan covered her small mouth and said, "The smell of blood is so strong. Are all the people in here dead?"
When Qin Ruoxuan said this, my heart suddenly tightened. There were hundreds of tomb robbers, and there were many masters among them. If all of them were really dead, if this news spread, it would definitely shock the entire tomb-robbers circle.
"Shopkeeper, there is a corpse in front of you." Niu Jianguo reminded me.
I looked up and saw under the light of torches, I saw more than a dozen corpses lying on the ground not far away. Most of these corpses were bloody and fleshy, and the skin on their bodies had long been peeled off, revealing sections of forest white flesh.
Bones and blood flowed all over the floor, and the death situation was particularly horrifying...
More than a dozen corpses were scattered on the ground. The tomb passage was already narrow, so we could only walk slowly.
The light in the tomb was dim, so we made three torches. Niu Jianguo, Qin Shisan, and I each took one. As for Qin Ruoxuan, she followed me and was in the middle of the team, which was safe.
The corpses on the ground were silent, but as we walked through, Qin Ruoxuan suddenly let out a scream!
I was startled. When I looked back, I saw Qin Ruoxuan's face was pale and she pointed at the body below.
I quickly looked down and saw a corpse on the ground, stretching out its skinned palm and pulling Qin Ruoxuan's white feet.
My pupils shrank, this corpse was already dead, why was it still moving?
"Little bastard, it's grabbing my feet..." Qin Ruoxuan said with surprise.
I kicked the hand with my foot, and found that the hand was still holding it tightly. Even after I kicked it, I still couldn't kick it away.
I raised my eyebrows and without hesitation took the ax in Niu Jianguo's hand and chopped off the dead man's hand.
Qin Ruoxuan exclaimed and rushed into my arms, obviously very frightened.
"It's okay."
I wanted to comfort Qin Ruoxuan with a few words, but before I could finish my words, I glanced out of the corner of my eye and trembled a few times when I saw several corpses on the ground.
A sense of crisis flashed through my heart!
"No, the corpse has changed. Let's leave quickly!" I suddenly shouted.
I hurriedly pulled Qin Ruoxuan to run forward, but as soon as my front legs left, the dozen or so animals behind me twitched violently, and all of them got up from the ground, and then howled like hungry wolves, heading straight towards us.
Chase after...
I was also shocked. In my impression, none of the people killed by the Yin soldiers before had turned into corpses. Why did they enter the tomb and the people here turned into corpses as soon as they died?
I was thinking that it might have something to do with the tomb. The evil spirit in this tomb is too strong, and the body is often prone to abnormal changes under this evil spirit after death.
Right now, we are being chased by these dozen alien corpses. They are covered in blood, howling crazily, and showing their teeth and claws, as if they are just like the rabies patients we saw when we were children. No, compared to rabies patients, these corpses
It was beyond recognition and was ten times more terrifying.
While escaping, Qin Ruoxuan tripped her foot and fell down.
The strange corpse behind her was approaching in an instant. Qin Ruoxuan's face changed with fright, and she was obviously much too slow to get up again.
"No, don't come here..." Qin Ruoxuan said helplessly and horrified.
I didn't hesitate, and immediately turned around and returned. Before those strange corpses could pounce on Qin Ruoxuan, I immediately protected her behind me.
I raised the broken sword in my hand and stabbed directly at the corpse closest to me. The broken sword passed through its neck and its head was thrown up instantly.
The headless corpse fell to the ground with a crash, but the other corpses stepped on it and continued to rush towards me.
"Old Niu, take her away first!" I shouted.
At this juncture, it is not practical to run together, so someone has to stay behind.
"Shopkeeper, it's me who will take care of Miss Qin," Niu Jianguo said.
I glared at him and said, "Stop talking nonsense and take her away quickly!"
Niu Jianguo sighed and could only pull Qin Ruoxuan away.
"Little bastard, I don't want to leave, you stinky bastard, why do you have to leave me again..."
Qin Ruoxuan screamed in anger, but I really couldn't care about her. A dozen corpses swept in front of me, giving me no time to breathe.
Before Qin Shisan left, he saw him rushing into the corpse very quickly, and then pulled out a soft sword from his waist. A white light suddenly appeared, and the sharp soft sword directly picked off the head of a corpse.
!
"Good swordsmanship!" I shouted sincerely, and immediately, not to be outdone, I waved the broken sword in my hand and stabbed the corpse continuously.
These corpses are already piles of rotten flesh. The best way to kill them is to dismember them completely.
There were more than a dozen corpses, and with the joint efforts of Qin Shisan and I, it took us seven or eight minutes to get rid of them all.
Qin Shisan and I looked at each other and both couldn't help but smile.
Qin Shisan said: "You are stronger than me."
"As we kill more people, our skills will naturally improve." I said calmly.
After disposing of a dozen mutated corpses, I glanced at the rotten flesh and blood scattered on the ground, and said to Qin Shisan: "Let's go, it's not a good place to stay here for a long time."
Qin Shisan nodded and followed me away to chase Niu Jianguo and Qin Ruoxuan.
Ten minutes later, we met Niu Jianguo and Qin Ruoxuan at a fork in the tomb.
At this time, Qin Xiaoniu's little face was full of worry. When she saw that I was safe and sound, her expression softened a little.
"You little bastard, if you dare to let someone take me away next time, I will never forgive you." Qin Ruoxuan pouted and hit my chest several times with her pink fist, and finally she felt a little resentful.
"Shopkeeper, you're here."
Niu Jianguo's voice sounded, and he pointed to me at the fork in front and said, "How should we go next?"
I took a look and saw that there were three roads at the fork in front. There was a sense of darkness in front of each road, and there were also blood stains on the ground. It seemed that the tomb robbers should be divided into three groups here.
There are people going there, but among these three roads, one or two must be the road of no return...
I'm a little confused and don't know which way to go.
The three roads are almost identical, and each one exudes an aura of danger. It would be fine if I was alone, but now I am still with Qin Ruoxuan and the others, and I must be responsible for them for every decision I make now.
"Ascending to the sky and descending to the earth, one represents the Western Heaven and the other represents hell, both of which symbolize death." I murmured: "And between the heaven and the earth is the human world. Logically speaking, the human world symbolizes life... We just
Let's take a gamble and take the middle road..." I said.
Niu Jianguo and Qin Shisan had no objections. They both nodded and said, "Listen to the shopkeeper."
As for Qin Ruoxuan, she simply squinted her eyes and gave me a look of admiration, with countless little stars twinkling in her beautiful eyes.
We walked onto the middle road at the fork. After walking here for a while, I felt that the temperature suddenly dropped a lot, as if this was not a mausoleum, but another world.
I was secretly surprised and said: This tomb of Bai Qi, the God of Death, is really weird. There is a blood-dropped stone at the entrance of the tomb, and the tomb passage is divided into three parts. Who would bother with their own tomb like this throughout the ancient times?
Apart from the fact that the temperature got a little colder along the middle road we walked, the rest of the road also seemed much calmer. We didn't encounter any danger along the way, and we didn't even see the shadow of the Yin soldiers.
But the more this happened, the more I felt something was wrong.
After walking for more than ten minutes, I saw a stone tablet on the ground with three ancient scrawled words on it.
I touched my nose. Although I have been fighting against each other for many years, I have to admit that my cultural level is really limited, especially when it comes to identifying these ancient characters. It is easy to make a fool of myself.
I squinted for a while, but I could only understand the first character on the stone tablet, which was the character "人". As for the next two characters, I was confused and couldn't figure out the reason.
.
"Who are you, Lao Niu, can you recognize the last two words?" I asked.
Niu Jianguo licked his face and said: "I have never read a book, so how can I tell whether these tadpole articles are sidewalks? Or are they just crazy people?"
I rolled my eyes and pretended I didn't ask.
Qin Ruoxuan looked at me and Niu Jianguo with a look of contempt, and said, "It's crazy, why don't you say that everyone is equal?"
"Hey, Miss Qin, I can't read Fat Master, but I can still count. There are obviously three words on the stone tablet, and there are four words on everyone's equality..."
"Huh, as expected, there are just as many followers as there are shopkeepers. That's great. These three words are called the way of the world! Not everyone can recognize the small seal script of the Qin State." Qin Ruoxuan said proudly.
"The way of the world?"
I touched my nose and felt that it was really interesting. Bai Qi, the God of Death, opened three tomb passages for himself. The middle passage was the human passage. So the upper and lower passages were not heaven and hell?
I don't know what kind of dangers there are in the other two tomb passages, but I know that the road on earth that I am walking on will definitely not be peaceful.
"Everyone, be careful. This path in the world must not be simple. Bai Qi is the general of Qin. It is said that he has hundreds of ways to torture people. Naturally, there will be traps set up by him in this tomb passage." I
road.
We continued walking, but after walking for a long time, except that the surroundings gradually became misty and foggy, everything still seemed very calm.
And unconsciously, we also let down some of our vigilance.
As the visibility gradually weakened, I found that I could only see three or four meters in front of me. Any further away, it was just a blur and I couldn't see anything.
Suddenly, I raised my head, and inadvertently my eyes seemed to see a figure flashing through the mist.
I was alert, but when I turned around to warn Niu Jianguo and the others, I found that there was no one behind me.
"not good!"
I muttered something bad, I was talking to Niu Jianguo just a minute or two ago, but why was there no one there in the blink of an eye?
"Lao Niu? Qin Ruoxuan?"
I shouted several times, but got no response.
I felt more and more uneasy, but at this moment, in the fog, I saw the figure of a man.
"Xiao Fan..."
The man's voice sounded familiar.
My heart jolted because I can't forget this voice. This is how my damn dad called my name when I was a kid.
I couldn't believe my ears, it felt like I was being struck by thunder.
"Xiaofan, it's me."
The man's voice came again, he turned around, and a familiar face suddenly appeared in front of me.
I was so shocked that I didn't come back to my senses for a long time.
