Phoenix Queen

Looking at the footprints on the ground, the leopard lifted up the ever-burning lamp and lifted it into the distance...

All eyes are directed there...

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 chased forward as fast as possible. Ming Yan and Leopard were deeply injured, supporting each other and following 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, he 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 an attempt to confuse the eyes of grave robbers." .”

Ming Yan opened his eyes wide.He 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 we find the coffin, I'm afraid... there will be enough funeral objects in it. The army eats for a whole year."

No one cares about him.Leopard went on to say, "However. When encountering this kind of tomb, if there is no last resort, no matter how much effort was spent before entering and 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's face suddenly collapsed after hearing my question. "Usually... the fake tomb is the most powerful place in the ancient tomb." Taking a breath, Leopard wiped the sweat from his forehead. "If you make a wrong move, at least...the person who enters the tomb will die, and at worst...the entire ancient tomb will be destroyed."

"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 while, and 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, none of us in the group were injured or shot.

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... Looking from the back, there were still a few more arrows on Yun Ziao's back.

However, Leopard said that it was just a skin trauma. Since he dared to release the trap, he must have found the antidote from the coffin, and with that Cloud Silkworm Heaven Cloak, it was impossible for Li Hao to suffer even the slightest bit of injury.

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. From a distance, he looked like a human figure composed 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.

Thinking about it, Yun Ziao and Li Hao had already wiped insect repellents on their bodies. Although they were surrounded by insects and ants, they did not see the slightest difference. Zi Ao formed a protective layer in another sense.

The insects and ants approached and surrounded us in a short while, 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?" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation. )
