Phoenix Queen

Those two pairs of footprints were extremely messy, it could be seen...they ran very fast!

"Chase!" Pang Yi yelled, "Otherwise...you will get lost in the ancient tomb in a while."

I took a closer look and realized...those footprints were left by the shoes stepping on the water...

The reason why the watermark didn't dry up immediately was because there was no wind in the ancient tomb, plus... the stone material used to make the ancient tomb is special and has good water absorption.

However... even the best water absorption will eventually leave no trace.

Ming Yan just stepped out with his left foot, didn't move, then took it back, looked at the leopard and said, "This ancient tomb is full of traps, if you rush after it rashly, if..." Pressed hard on the wound on his shoulder, Ming Yan Yan frowned, "Everyone of us was injured, and our fighting power was not enough, so there is no way anyone can die."

Even... the enemy is right in front of him, he still can't just chase him out like this.

"..."

"Didn't you hear what Ming Yan said?" Pang Yi pulled me back, recalling the experience since he went to the ground, Pang Yi's face turned blue involuntarily, "You forgot, I haven't forgotten..."

"Impossible." I shook off Pang Yi, sneered indifferently, and pointed to the footprints on the ground, "Li Hao and Yun Ziao's pace is irregular, they are just on their way, if... Then... it must be safe here."

Leopard also nodded, "Generally speaking, after reaching the ear chamber, the owner of the tomb will not set up traps...that doesn't fit Feng Shui."

Pang Yi and I rushed to the front, seeing that the footprints were about to dry up.We tried our best to chase forward, Ming Yan and Leopard were deeply injured, they supported each other and followed behind.

really……

There is no mechanism at all in this tomb passage, and we came to the end smoothly.

"What... what's going on?" Pang Yi looked at the 33 identical tombs in front of him, "33 people buried together? Is this a family tomb?"

Leopard shook his head, with an extremely helpless expression, and explained to us, "This is called a virtual coffin. Generally speaking, only nobles with extremely high status in ancient times would design multiple identical coffins in the tomb in order to try to To confuse the eyes of grave robbers."

Ming Yan opened her eyes wide, and stared hard at the ground, but... the footprints were really not visible at all.

"It can be made with a scale of 33... It seems that this nobleman is not ordinary. Maybe he is a member of the royal family." Leopard's eyes lit up, "If you find the coffin, I'm afraid... there will be enough funeral objects in it. The army eats for a whole year."

Seeing that no one paid any attention to him, Leopard continued, "However, if you encounter this kind of tomb, if it is not absolutely necessary, no matter how much effort you put in before entering. How many people died, the tomb robbers usually turn around and leave."

"What will happen if you make a mistake?" I lowered my head and said in a low voice while supporting the dagger on the back of my waist.

After hearing my question, Leopard looked like a money fanatic, and suddenly his face collapsed, "Usually...fake tombs are the most powerful places in ancient tombs." Taking a breath, Leopard wiped his forehead The sweat on his face, "If you go wrong, at least...the person who enters the tomb will die, and at worst...the entire ancient tomb will be destroyed in one fell swoop."

"Then... is there a way to lure them out?" Pang Yi looked at the 33 tombs in front of him.

I was also looking at the leopard at the same time.

Leopard thought for a moment.Finally shook his head.

"So... is it possible for them to walk out of the real tomb?"

"Absolutely impossible." Leopard said with certainty, "The reason why the owner of the tomb made so many fake tombs is to make it impossible for those who enter the tomb to come out. How could it be possible to create a passage behind the real tomb, and... A good burial chamber pays more attention to air isolation, and the inside must not be ventilated. After the original air is used up, they... will definitely come out."

Waiting is a whole day, and now the city gate is open...

I don't know what kind of material the eternal lamp in this ancient tomb is made of. In short... After a day and two nights, after lighting for so long, there is no sign of going out at all. Maybe... Yun Ziao didn't use any external force. The four ever-burning lamps had been burning in the tomb for hundreds of years before they were extinguished.

Finally, in the middle of the night, I finally heard something happen...

Everyone concentrated at the same time, and the weapons showed their sharp edges at the same time.

Sure enough... At this time, one of the 33 tombs began to slowly open, and Yun Ziao held Li Hao in his arms.

The black cloak completely covered Li Hao!

When Leopard saw the cloak, he said to me, "The cloud silkworm cloak is invulnerable to swords and guns. Those who survive can wear this cloak to keep their youth forever. The dead wear it...the body will not be destroyed, but there is one thing. Wearing this cloak outside the full moon The clothes cannot be moved rashly, otherwise the flesh and blood will be buried in the heavenly clothes, because...the heavenly clothes are alive."

Perhaps this is one of Yun Ziao's reasons for hugging Li Hao. Of course, the other purpose is... Li Hao doesn't know martial arts at all.He... is too dependent on Yun Ziao and Du Ran.

In just a few days, Yun Ziao's face was covered with stubble, but... mentally, he was extremely full, and his eyes were full of satisfaction.

As soon as the stone gate was opened, everyone stabbed at Yun Ziao together.

Yun Ziao stood aside and didn't move at all. When we approached, Yun Ziao's hand...slightly moved the mechanism.

All of a sudden, thousands of arrows are fired!

The 33 stone gates were opened together, and many snakes, insects, rats and ants crawled out of them together...

Wherever it passed, even the stone walls were black, which showed the intensity of the poison.

"No!" Leopard roared, pointing at the unnamed insects and ants on the ground, "The antidote can only be found in the coffin where the tomb owner's body is stored."

Seeing the insects and ants getting closer...

Those sharp arrows pierced into the wood, making piercing muffled noises...

They were all poisoned by spit, and even after hundreds of years, those arrow tips are still very sharp, but... the direction of the long arrows is not the entire space, but a single direction to the south. It is convenient for us to escape.

After a few minutes of strafing arrows.All of us in the group were safe, and no one was hurt by the arrow.

However, after the chaos...

However, Li Hao and Yun Ziao had already run towards the other side of the tomb passage, and only echoes could be heard in the entire ancient tomb.

It turned out that Yun Ziao and Li Hao's purpose of releasing the sword just now was not to hurt us, but to let us avoid the sharp arrow, and run away in the direction of the sharp arrow.

Although Yun Ziao ran away smoothly, but... from the back.There are still a few more arrows on Yun Ziao's back.

However, Leopard said that it was just a superficial wound, since he dared to release the mechanism, he must find the antidote from the coffin.Coupled with that cloud silkworm heavenly robe, it was impossible for Li Hao to suffer even the slightest bit of harm.

Yun Ziao ran fast, and his whole body stepped into the insects and ants. After a while, Yun Ziao was surrounded by insects and ants, and he looked from a distance.It looks like a human figure made up of insects and ants, with its back facing us.The worm shadow moved rapidly, getting farther and farther away from us...

Just getting close!

In my heart, I am not unwilling.

Come to think of it, Yun Ziao and Li Hao had already wiped insect-repelling objects on their bodies. Even though they were surrounded by insects and ants, they didn't see the slightest difference.Those insects and ants surrounding Yun Ziao didn't seem to want to hurt him, but instead formed a protective layer for Yun Ziao in another sense.

Insects approach.After a while, we were surrounded, layer by layer, with a thickness of one centimeter, and the original color of the stone wall was also covered...

You can't even imagine how those insects like the tide were put into the not-so-large tomb...

Suddenly... Pang Yi roared in shock, pointed at the people who came out of the 33 tombs, and asked tremblingly, "Aren't they... already dead?"

I saw those soldiers who entered the ancient tomb but were killed by the mechanism, now they all stood up, with scarlet light in their eyes, and they walked towards us side by side with insects and ants.

"Dead Transformation!" Leopard yelled, "Don't let them touch you."

"Corpse change?" Pang Yi usually looked quite big, but now he hid at the back and kept backing away. After taking a few steps, he found that the back was full of bugs.

"Generally speaking, there is a process of corpse transformation, at least it will take decades. What are these things, and why are they so powerful?" Leopard tore off his clothes, lit them with an ever-burning lamp, and threw them into the pile of insects...

Only the sound of crackling and crackling could be heard, and those bugs still surrounded them without fear of death, and the air was full of the smell of scorched dead bodies.

Pulling out the dagger at the back of my waist, stepping on Pang Yi's shoulder, I jumped out, just thinking about cutting those people down first...

But after chopping one off, I found out...they couldn't die at all, the whole body was divided into five pieces, and the head and broken leg were still wriggling.

Those crawling insects suddenly flew up...

The corner of Pang Yi's mouth twitched, "Could it be that they can fly?"

"This is their waking state. Before long, all the bugs will fly up." Ming Yan understands this aspect better, and explained, "This is the most advanced bug in the Jinjiang people's sacrifice."

There is nothing in the real tomb, and insects and ants dare not approach it.Although... the tomb is only three meters away from us, but... I understand what it means to be close at hand and far away.

Facing these non-scientific things, no matter how good the martial arts are, there is no way to do it.

I don't know when an insect flew onto my hand, and without thinking about it, I peeled off that piece of skin with a dagger.

Ming Yan's eyes shone brightly, and he cut a hole in his own hand, perhaps the smell of blood and gorilla attracted the bugs...

The speed of the worm's encirclement is getting faster and faster.

"What are you doing?" Leopard yelled, "You want to kill everyone?"

Ming Yan ignored it, closed her eyes, stretched her hands, and her whole body unfolded like a big character...

After a while, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands... spiders emerged from Ming Yan's sleeves.

Although the number is not as alarming as the number of bugs, it is still a considerable amount...

Densely packed, overwhelming... like a shrunken space, like sesame seeds in a bowl.

Even I feel a strange itch in my neck...

Looking at Mingyan again, I suddenly found that... besides his facial features, his body was also covered with spiders...

Even her hair was covered with spiders, as if even her hair was made of spiders.

Inside ours, bugs have nowhere to approach.The spiders released by the bright smoke really surrounded us. Except for the flat ground under the shoes, the rest...you can't take a step outside.

It feels like falling into a wormhole.

Pang Yi swallowed, looking at Mingyan, the corners of his mouth were twitching.

I saw those spiders biting the approaching insects...

A spider can eat hundreds of poisonous insects... The spider that was only the size of a fingernail began to grow in size...

The speed is beyond people's imagination. In just a few minutes, those hundreds of thousands of spiders have become as big as the palm of your hand...

In this way, those bugs cannot approach us.I was even forced to retreat little by little by the spider... the encirclement circle began to get bigger.

Ming Yan stretched out her hand, and the spiders on the ground stopped eating insects, raised their heads, and looked at the 47 soldiers...

Sudden……

The 47 largest spiders began to spin silk, and the spider silk was at least as thick as a finger.And... the color of that silk is not ordinary white, but the same color as those bugs on the ground...

The thick silk was about to spit out to those people's bodies, and the spider started to crawl along the silk at an extremely fast speed, on the strangely colored spider silk.Only a little black shadow can be seen flashing past, finally.Stopped on the face of the dead body...

Those palm-sized spiders began to crawl through the openings on the dead body's face, some from the mouth, some from the ears... the palm-sized spiders just squeezed in through the ear holes, rustling, as if those The spider is eating the cartilage in the human ear.

It didn't take long to see hundreds of insects coming out of the eyes of the dead body as if fleeing for their lives, and then.Those spiders also chased them out...

When it goes in, it can get out of the mouth, but when it comes out, it bursts the mouth of the dead body.

As soon as the spider came out.Those dead bodies fell to the ground again...

Following the thread, the spiders squeezed back into the pile of bugs.

Ming Yan pointed to the door of the real tomb, and those spiders were like opening the way...

The distance of three meters is shortening step by step.

The spider is getting bigger and bigger. If you don't look carefully, you may think...that is a table.

A quarter of an hour later, we finally finished the three-meter distance...

Inside the coffin lay a woman...

Maybe it was because the cloud silkworm heavenly clothes had just been taken off, or maybe it was because of the red lotuses that dried up one after another in the coffin, but the woman's appearance didn't change at all.

There was no rancid smell in the coffin, but the fragrance of lotus permeated everywhere.

The moment we saw that woman, maybe we all forgot the purpose of coming in...

Just stood there silently watching.

Suddenly, I felt that the woman's eyebrows and eyes seemed very familiar, as if I had seen it somewhere...

The tomb is much bigger than it looks from the outside...

Naturally, there will be no shortage of gold, silver and jewelry, and there are quite a lot of antique calligraphy and paintings...

The most peculiar thing is the lotus flower that the woman holds in her hand, it is very small, very small, probably like the bead flower on the woman's ear, but... all the fragrance in the coffin comes from there.

Even more peculiar is the color of the lotus——

Pure black, that kind of black seems to have reached the extreme, more than three points more than the black of the ink, even in the dark night, you can see the entire black outline of the lotus, that kind of black can't blend with the night at all.

The breath hits the lotus, and the lotus petals can even move with the wind...

This black lotus is actually...alive!

I was suddenly startled, staying here for thousands of years, the lotus without any water and soil can survive?

If you don't take a closer look at the black lotus, maybe...you will think that the lotus is just made of some kind of metal, and you will never think that...it is still alive.

The leopard looked around and said to me, "My lord, those insects are afraid... probably the lotus in the coffin."

I nodded, and the leopard took out a small petal of blood lotus from the coffin, walked to the door of the tomb, and threw it on the ground. Suddenly, the insects scattered over at a speed as fast as a tornado of magnitude ten. .

Glancing at each other, Leopard kowtowed in front of the coffin and said, "Close up."

Then he grabbed a few blood lotuses from the coffin, distributed them to everyone and pinned them in their collars. Of course... only Ming Yan refused the blood lotus.

"My lord, why don't you go first." Leopard looked at the golden utensils around him, "Anyway, besides you, Ming Yan, Pang Yi, and me are all badly injured. If we go, we won't be able to help. The most is not to cause you trouble, why not let them stay and move this gold with me, and also improve the food for the brothers."

"That's right. I want to stay and meet you later, and...if you see me on the ground to Grandpa Shengzu and Grandma Shengzu, tell them that there is the best sacrifice here." Bright smoke point Nodding his head, he rolled his eyes with a smile. "I haven't had enough of these things. After this time...I'm afraid I won't find such a good opportunity in this life."

The leopard grabbed a handful of gold objects and stuffed them into his inner coat, even if the wound was scratched by the edges and corners of the gold objects, he didn't care about it. "Money, you won't have too much time...you have it. Don't want it for nothing, my lord, don't you think so?"

Hearing what he said, I suddenly thought of Cao Cao, "Do you know what Captain Mojin is?"

Not only Leopard, but even Pang Yi asked curiously, "What captain? Why haven't I heard of it?"

Didn't explain much to them.I glanced at Leopard, "From now on... you'll just touch Captain Jin's head."

He glanced at the woman in the coffin again.After thinking about it for a long time, I still don't know if I have seen her or not?If so, where is it?

In the end, I had no choice but to think about it, and glanced at the living black lotus. I thought to myself, if Yeqin saw it, she would definitely like it, so... I carefully picked off the black lotus from the corpse, and held it in my hand , I only thought about giving Yeqin to Yeqin after planting a job.

I thought that the incorruption of the corpse had something to do with the black lotus, maybe after picking it off, I would see the corpse turn into a pile of white bones...

But... In fact, that female corpse is still extremely beautiful!

Before I could be surprised, I pretended to be a black lotus, held a blood lotus, and chased it out from the direction of the sharp arrow...

At this moment, maybe Yun Ziao was in a hurry to hurry. After he shut down those mechanisms, he thought it was too late to restart them...

I haven't encountered any obstacles along the way...

Good luck catching up!

Thinking about it, it's right, Yun Ziao bears the weight of two people alone, and it won't go anywhere anytime soon.

When I went out, Yun Ziao hugged Li Hao who was wearing Yuncan Tianyi with one hand...

Competing with many guards with a broken Ziran sword!

Fighting to the death, with the determination to die, Yun Ziao didn't lose the slightest bit!

Yun Ziao held the broken sword in his hand and fought desperately. Suddenly, his eyes fell on me from afar...

Yun Ziao was slightly startled, tightened Li Hao's hand, and whispered something into Li Hao's ear.

……

This time, although there were quite a few people guarding the ancient tomb, they were not fully equipped. All of them only carried a weapon for self-defense, and there were only a dozen or so horses...

These people waited outside for a day and two nights. In the wilderness, there was not much to eat. At most, they would buy some game and eat some weeds. Maybe... They all thought that no one came out after so long, maybe, Everyone died there.

Come to think of it... If they hadn't received the order, these soldiers would have left long ago.

Even Shura wasn't there, and I heard from Jing Yi's subordinates that all my subordinates were called away by Ah Jiu and Xiao Ba, saying that it was Master Guo who had orders.

Those who stayed here were all exhausted soldiers. When Yun Ziao first came out, many of them were still sleeping here!

After Yun Ziao killed many soldiers, they woke up from their ignorance!

Only then did he slowly join the war.

This time I went to this wilderness, I really didn't bring a bow or arrow, otherwise... Yun Ziao wouldn't be able to last for so long.

That Ziran Broken Sword is still extremely sharp!

Sometimes... just being brushed by the sword energy can also cause considerable injuries to the surrounding soldiers, and the most serious... even break their hands!

These murderous aura and absoluteness are enough to show...how determined Yun Ziao is to protect Li Hao!

I watched Yun Ziao slash with his sword coldly, then stood where he was, and did not join the war...

Dozens of soldiers stood by my side, in their words... they were there to protect me.

However, the real purpose is nothing more than wanting to stay by my side and save my life. I really disdain this kind of excuse!

Although I feel helpless for their behavior, I don't want to say anything...

When I came out of the ancient tomb and saw this group of soldiers, I already knew... With them, I can't do anything to Yun Ziao!

Even... Yun Ziao still has a burden on him!

I am a killer, it is impossible for me not to know how great a person's potential will be stimulated when he is determined to die!

Before I arrived in this world, I didn't even have any internal strength. All my internal strength comes from Li Jue. Li Jue's bones are peculiar and are materials for martial arts. However, how much time can he, a lustful prince, devote to martial arts? study?It can be regarded as a miracle in the world of martial arts if the internal strength can be trained here!

If you compare me with Yun Ziao now, it is undeniable that I will fall behind Yun Ziao a lot in terms of internal strength, but if it is normal, I can guarantee that I am [-]% sure that I can defeat Yun Ziao!
