Chapter 272 Entering the General's Tomb

With the unremitting efforts of Tom and the other two, the heavy stone door was finally pushed open to create a gap large enough for four people to pass through. Seeing that the gap was large enough, Fang Xiaocao immediately said, "Okay, it's done."

After hearing Fang Xiaocao's words, Tom and the other two felt relieved and stopped immediately.

It is conservatively estimated that this stone door weighs a thousand pounds. The three of them used all their might to lift it.

"Let's go in!"

Fang Xiaocao said this and prepared to enter through the crack in the door into this general's tomb that was built at an unknown time.

Fang Xiaocao took a step forward and wanted to enter the general's tomb.

Tom, who was standing by, was startled.

He quickly reached out and grabbed Fang Xiaocao.

"Your Highness, please wait a moment."

Fang Xiaocao was stunned when Tom pulled her.

He turned his head and looked at Tom in confusion: "What's wrong?"

Tom smiled bitterly and explained, "The ancient tomb has been sealed for a long time, so there may be foul air and thin oxygen. It is not suitable to enter just after the door is opened. In addition, some ancient tombs are filled with poisonous gas. Even if the poisonous gas is only one tenth of it after so many years, it still needs to be ventilated."

After hearing what Tom said, Fang Xiaocao showed an expression of sudden enlightenment: "So that's it!"

"I read a tomb-raiding novel before, and it mentioned that you have to throw a living thing in to test the poison. How could I have forgotten that?"

Fang Xiaocao scratched her hair shyly.

"Let's rest nearby for a while and let the ancient tomb ventilate before going in later."

Fang Xiaocao said with a smile.

Tom and the other two naturally would not object to Fang Xiaocao's order. This was the most correct decision.

Taotie walked a few hundred meters away to keep watch for Fang Xiaocao and the other two, while Fang Xiaocao and the other two sat in a circle not far from the tomb entrance, waiting for the ancient tomb to be released.

Half an hour later!
The Taotie on guard is back.

Taotie was holding a bat in his hand.

Seeing the bat in Taotie's hand, Fang Xiaocao was startled and immediately hid behind Tom.

Fang Xiaocao is most afraid of creatures like bats.

Not only is it ugly, it's also dirty and full of viruses.

"Taotie, what are you doing with it!"

Fang Xiaocao pointed at the bat and exclaimed.

"Hehe~"

Taotie laughed contemptuously.

He deliberately held the bat and moved closer to Fang Xiaocao.

Fang Xiaocao immediately pushed Tom forward.

At the same time, he screamed, "Tom, if he dares to come near again, you will beat him up."

"Forehead……"

Fang Xiaocao's reaction made Taotie stunned.

"like……"

"It's too big!"

Taotie muttered embarrassedly in his heart.

Seeing that Fang Xiaocao was really frightened, Tom glared at Taotie with a bad expression, then turned around to comfort Fang Xiaocao: "Don't be afraid, Princess. I'm here."

"Why don't you take it away!"

Tom turned his head and glared at Taotie again.

Taotie laughed awkwardly and explained, "Your Highness, I caught this bat to test the poison gas."

As he spoke, Taotie took out a fishing line, tied it to the bat's legs, and threw the bat into the general's tomb through the gap in the stone door.

Freed from the Taotie's restraints, the bat immediately flapped its wings and tried to fly away.

But with the fishing line tied to its legs, no matter how it flew, it could not escape the clutches of the Taotie.

It can only be like a yo-yo, constantly being pulled back and thrown out by Taotie.

General's Tomb: Thanks to my friend for sending me the bat...

amount……

The other party withdrew a bat...

Until Taotie catches the bat, it is time to do serious work.

Fang Xiaocao couldn't blame Taotie anymore.

But this does not mean that Fang Xiaocao will forgive Taotie, the stupid guy.

Write this down in your little notebook first!

Wait for the reckoning in the autumn!
Taotie tormented the bat for half an hour. It must be said that the bat's vitality is still very tenacious. If it were another creature, it would have died long ago after being toyed with by Taotie. But this bat managed to survive. Although it was a little wilted, it was still alive.

"Your Highness, you should be able to go in now."

Taotie pulled the bat back and Bigfoot fell down.

With a "crack", the bat was stepped on by Taotie and turned into a bat cake.

Seeing that Taotie sentenced the scary bat to death and turned it into a dead bat, Fang Xiaocao finally got up the courage and walked out from behind Tom.

Fang Xiaocao breathed a sigh of relief after taking a look and seeing that the bat was indeed dead.

"Tom?"

Fang Xiaocao looked at Tom and asked for his opinion.

Fang Xiaocao doesn't trust Taotie about this kind of thing.

We have to listen to Tom, the chief eunuch.

Tom walked to the stone door, leaned his head in through the crack, and sniffed the air inside the general's tomb.

"Aju~"

Tom sneezed violently.

He rubbed his nose and retracted his head.

General's Tomb: The opponent withdraws a head.

"Your Highness, you may come in now."

"There's nothing in the air except the musty smell."

Tom said to Fang Xiaocao.

Fang Xiaocao nodded: "Let's go!"

Fang Xiaocao waved her hand and said with a smile.

"Taotie, you lead the way, Fengniao, you follow behind, and I will protect Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Tom immediately made the formation arrangements.

Naturally, no one objected to Tom's arrangement.

Taotie drew out his dagger and walked at the front of the team. Fang Xiaocao and Tom walked in the middle, and Hummingbird walked at the end.

The four-member tomb-exploring team has been formed.

He slipped through the crack in the door and entered the general's tomb, which had been sealed for who knows how many years, and began his tomb-robbing journey.

"Taotie, be careful. An ancient tomb of this size, especially one belonging to a rich and powerful person, may have some mechanism to prevent tomb robbery. Don't fall for it."

Walking in the tomb passage, Tom reminded worriedly.

Taotie nodded: "I'll do the job, don't worry!"

Taotie patted his chest and made the promise shamelessly.

Fang Xiaocao and the other two grinned after hearing this.

"It's because of your work that I'm worried."

Fang Xiaocao complained silently in her heart.

Tom beside him and the hummingbird behind him have exactly the same expressions.

Obviously, no one trusts Tom, this fool.

Taotie didn't care about the expressions of Fang Xiaocao and the other two. He just walked in front of them. Although he looked careless, it was obvious that Taotie was a meticulous man and was exploring the way carefully.

Taotie led Fang Xiaocao and the other two along a kilometer along the tomb passage paved with bluestone slabs.

Two stone doors appeared again in front.

These two stone doors are exactly the same as the previous two, except that they are a little thinner.

Seeing the two stone doors blocking the road, Fang Xiaocao and the other three looked at each other, their expressions somewhat helpless.

Taotie curled his lips and said, "Well, it's too early to kill the bat."

Fang Xiaocao rolled her eyes when she heard Taotie's words.

He put on a ferocious expression, glared at Taotie viciously, and silently condemned Taotie.

"No mention of bats!"

"If you dare mention bats again, we'll kick you out!"

Fang Xiaocao clenched her fists and threatened.

Taotie shrugged and grinned with a heartless smile.

"I don't want to mention it anymore~"

Taotie said with a smile.

"Now how to do?"

Fang Xiaocao rolled her eyes at Taotie and looked at Tom.
