Chapter 289 Something unexpected happened
"Kakaka..."

As the cracks on Tao Yong's thighs grew larger, pieces of pottery began to fall off Tao Yong, revealing a string of thumb-sized, oval-shaped eggs inside Tao Yong's body.

The egg-shaped object in Tao Yong's body lost the restraint of the pottery pieces. After a piece of pottery fell off, it finally lost its balance and "crackled" out of Tao Yong's body, all piling up at Tao Yong's feet.

And more and more of them piled up, soon forming a small hill, blocking the holes in Tao Yong's thighs.

"Click~"

The sound of an eggshell breaking suddenly rang out.

The egg on the top suddenly broke.

The broken egg squirmed.

A pitch-black leg poked out from the gap in the egg.

next second!
A ferocious head emerged from the egg.

It turned out to be a black beetle the size of a thumb.

The black beetle showed its teeth and claws for a while.

Make a buzzing sound.

The beetle flapped its wings and flew up.

As the beetle takes off.

There was a dense rustling sound coming from the pile of eggs.

Then the egg pile began to collapse.

Beetles flapped their wings and flew out.

Together with the first beetle, it kept wandering around the burial pit of the royal guards.

As time went by, more and more black beetles crawled out of Tao Yong's body and joined the wandering army of beetles.

Until Tao Yongzhong no beetle crawled out.

All the insect eggs piled on the ground hatched, and then the beetles flew towards the eighteen sarcophagi. The black beetles swarmed densely and surrounded one of the sarcophagi tightly.

"Crack, click, click..."

"Swish..."

A dense series of noises came from the beetle, converging into a strange sound that made people's scalps tingle.

As the beetles continued to vibrate, an egg-sized beeswax plug on the side of the sarcophagus was eaten away by the beetles, revealing a passage leading into the sarcophagus. A strange fragrance emanated from the passage and instantly filled the entire burial pit.

After smelling the strange fragrance, the beetles went crazy instantly. One after another, they scrambled to crawl into the sarcophagus along the passage emitting the strange fragrance.

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of large beetles swarmed into the sarcophagus, as if they had never appeared. Only the hollowed-out Tao Yong and the withered skeleton inside Tao Yong's body silently told of their past experiences.

……

Led by Taotie, Fang Xiaocao and the other two quickly left the area of ​​the personal guards' burial pit and came to another tomb chamber.

This tomb chamber is still a burial pit.

However, it is no longer a burial pit for the guards.

It is a burial pit for livestock.

To be precise, it is a war horse burial pit!
The war horse burial pit contains the same number of war horses as that in the previous personal soldier burial pit.

The skeletons of eighteen real horses were neatly scattered in the burial pit. Behind the eighteen war horse skeletons were pottery horses of the same number as the number of pottery warriors.

However, these pottery horses are obviously not as exquisitely made as Tao Yong's. The workmanship can be described as shoddy. Some pottery horses have long been unable to withstand the erosion of time and have become incomplete or even collapsed directly, turning into pottery fragments on the ground.

"This is also a burial pit. It is used to prepare war horses for the personal guards and bodyguards. Even in the underworld, they can be transformed into ghost soldiers and horses and fight with the tomb owner."

Taotie smiled and introduced Xiaocao and the other two.

"If I'm not mistaken, the next tomb should be the weapons depot."

Taotie made a judgment based on his own experience.

"Armory?"

"Don't those Tao Yongs have weapons in their hands?"

Fang Xiaocao asked in confusion. "Those are just conventional weapons. In ancient times, there were many different kinds of weapons that had to be brought to war."

Taotie explained.

Hearing this, Fang Xiaocao nodded, not quite understanding.

No more entanglement with these.

After wandering around the war horse pit and not finding anything worth noting, Fang Xiaocao lost interest. Seeing Fang Xiaocao's expression, Taotie knew that Fang Xiaocao was not interested in this place, so he walked towards the next tomb chamber again.

Right now!

Tom suddenly paused, turned his head with a serious expression and looked behind him.

Then, Taotie also turned his head sharply and looked behind him.

Hummingbird was the last of the three to react. He quickly drew out the dagger from his waist and at the same time reached out to pull Fang Xiaocao behind him.

Seeing Tom and the other two looking like they were facing a formidable enemy, Fang Xiaocao was stunned at first, but then she realized that there might be some movement in the tomb behind them.

There is a high probability that some enemy is following us.

Thinking of the possibility of enemies, Fang Xiaocao also pulled out his gun, loaded the bullet with a "click", and in his other hand, he held a few steel nails.

Compared to her shooting skills, Fang Xiaocao is more confident in her steel nails.

"Hummingbird, can you tell by ear whether it's a human or an animal?"

Fang Xiaocao asked in a low voice.

"It should be a person. The footsteps are very heavy."

Hummingbird replied quietly.

Fang Xiaocao nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Tom rolled his eyes and glanced around quickly.

He said, "Hummingbird, take the princess and hide behind those pottery horses. Don't come out unless it's absolutely necessary. Judging from the footsteps, there's only one person on the other side. Taotie and I can handle it."

Hummingbird nodded at Tom's instructions.

Without waiting for Fang Xiaocao to react, the hummingbird pulled Fang Xiaocao and hid among the burial pottery horses.

"Old Tom, you hide too."

"Hold your gun and cover me!"

"There's only one person on the other side, I'm afraid it's a trick."

Taotie said to Tom in a deep voice.

Tom hesitated, then nodded.

He felt that Taotie's concerns were reasonable.

Tom looked around again and found a beam above the tomb. Tom simply took out his flying claws and hung himself on the beam.

Tom followed the claws and climbed up the beam.

Tom squatted on the beam, pulled out his gun, and made an OK gesture to the Taotie looking at him below.

Taotie withdrew his gaze and stared at the tomb door.

He tightened the spear in his hand.

"Ta Tata..."

The heavy footsteps are getting closer and closer.

Taotie frowned as he listened, feeling that something was odd. Judging from the sound of his footsteps, the man must weigh about 300 kilograms.

Moreover, there was the sound of metal colliding in the footsteps, which made Taotie wonder, could this guy who came be a robot?
With a loud "boom", the tomb door was pushed open.

A tall figure wearing a full black armor, holding a cold and shining Mo Dao and wearing a metal mask with a ghost face appeared in the eyes of Taotie.

"What the hell?"

"What the hell?"

Seeing this figure, Taotie’s eyes widened instantly and he couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.
