Chapter 307: Chapter 307 WeirdHearing this question, Qian You immediately became alert. He coughed a few times to attract the attention of the gang brothers and said:
"Boss, brothers, I have called for reinforcements for you. Don't worry, we will be able to get out soon."
Everyone was overjoyed and excited: "Is it the Gongsun family of Xiangzhou Wulin? Or the Longshen Fort on the Black Water River?"
"If it is these two families, we can be saved this time."
"Yes, the head of the Gongsun family is a fifth-rank master, and there are many masters under his command, including masters who are proficient in the art of evil. Longshen Fort is stronger. However, these two forces are not good at eating. I am afraid that the things in the tomb will not be ours, and we will have to pay a sky-high price."
"Are you blinded by your greed? If you have lost your life, what's the use of money. As long as you can save us, everything will be easy."
The sick gang leader exhaled a breath of turbid air and nodded: "Qian You, you did a good job."
.......Qian You was silent for a long time, and said with a strange look: "I, the helper I'm looking for is not the Gongsun family, nor the Longshen Fort."
"What?"
Everyone was disappointed, and the excitement disappeared.
Among the martial arts forces near Xiangcheng, the Gongsun family and Longshen Fort are the well-deserved leaders, and they have close ties with the Xiangcheng government. Many martial arts masters are attached to them.
If there is anyone else in Xiangcheng who can save them, it must be these two forces.
The hopeful light in the eyes of the sick man gang leader suddenly dimmed.
The deputy gang leader in white robes asked: "It's not Longshen Fort or Gongsun family, so what is the grade and identity of the helper you invited, a casual cultivator, or one with a sect background?"
The deputy gang leader is Gongyang Su, a sorcerer. As everyone knows, except for the Sitianjian, there are very few casual sorcerers in the martial arts world.
The sorcerer can see the air and is good at geomancy. He is simply a natural tomb robber. Therefore, Gongyang Su is the treasure of Houtu Gang. Although he is the deputy leader, the whole gang listens to him.
As soon as Gongyang Su spoke, everyone immediately became quiet and looked at Qian You.
"It's a coincidence that I met those helpers on the roadside, but they also seem to be looking for someone..." The helmsman Qian You looked at the little girl from Southern Xinjiang and said with emotion:
"Miss Lina, they are here to find you."
Everyone then looked at the girl from Southern Xinjiang. Lina, who was trying to deal with the sesame cake, raised her head, with flour residue on the corner of her mouth, and her
expression was very confused.
"This is my first time to Dafeng, and my tribesmen didn't come with me." Lina shook her head, saying that she was alone and had no friends.
Qian You explained: "The one I met was a sixth-rank warrior of the Bronze Skin and Iron Bones Realm. He was very handsome and was carrying a dishevelled woman on his back..."
Before he finished, Lina shook her head: "I don't know him."
"But they are indeed looking for you. They also asked me if there were any girls from Southern Xinjiang among the people who went to the tomb. I thought that you are the only girl from Southern Xinjiang in Xiangcheng recently."
The sick man leader frowned. He didn't think Lina would hide anything or quibble about this. First of all, this girl is simple and innocent, and has no scheming.
Secondly, everyone is in a desperate situation and it is time to help each other. Who doesn't want to get out early? It is meaningless to hide these things at this time.
Finally, if this girl had a sixth-rank warrior friend in Dafeng, why would she starve for three days and three nights? If I hadn't treated her to a meal, she would have been ready to rob.
Thinking of this, the sick man leader pondered and said, "Didn't you say there were several people? Tell me in detail about the characteristics of the others."
Qian You nodded and said, "In addition to the man and woman, there is also a big monk with a burly figure and a fierce look; a swordsman in a green shirt, who can fly with a sword, which is really a magical skill."
"Flying with a sword?" The sick man leader was shocked. He had never heard of a warrior who could fly with a sword.
"Do you know him?" Gong Yangsu looked at Lina.
The little girl from southern Xinjiang shook her head: "No."
Really don't know him? How could this be possible? The hero and his companions were looking for Miss Lina... Qian You continued with doubt:
"There is another Taoist priest. I heard others call him Taoist Priest Jinlian."
"Taoist Priest Jinlian?!"
Lina suddenly screamed, her eyebrows were full of joy, and she said repeatedly: "I know him, Taoist Priest Jinlian is a senior I trust very much... Woohoo, Taoist Priest Jinlian came to see me, Taoist Priest Jinlian is really a good person."
So they know each other... Everyone was relieved.
So it seems that the one who really knew Lina was Taoist Priest Jinlian, and the others were helpers found by the Taoist Priest.
The burly bald man should be the monk Hengyuan, that is, number six... The blue-shirted swordsman flying with a sword is number four. Well, the battle between heaven and man is imminent, and he is now in the capital... Who is the handsome sixth-rank warrior? Will our Tiandihui have such a person? Lina's not-so-smart brain turned quickly, and she identified the "friends" mentioned by Qian You.
But she couldn't figure out who the "one man and one woman" were.
"Miss Lina."
A gang member looked at her excitedly with shining eyes, "How are your friends?" Lina was simple-minded and answered every question: "Master Jinlian is a master of the Earth Sect. I don't know his specific rank, but he is definitely much stronger than me." The scene of tearing zombies apart with strength and fighting man-eating monsters appeared in everyone's mind, and the picture of Master Jinlian was even stronger than her, and their hearts were suddenly hot and full of hope.
"The bald monk is a Buddhist monk, and his cultivation is also very powerful."
Lina didn't know much about Hengyuan, so she skipped it and continued, "As for the blue- shirted swordsman, his name is Chu Yuanzhen, and he is one of the protagonists of the battle between heaven and man. He represented the human sect to fight against the saint of the
heaven sect."
"What?!"
Everyone exclaimed, and the sick man gang leader was also stunned.
Xiangzhou is not far from the capital, only three or four days' ride away, and the battle between heaven and man has long been spread throughout the capital and surrounding states. In the Xiangcheng martial arts world, many people from the rivers and lakes went to the capital to watch the grand event of the battle between heaven and man, although it was just a desperate contest between the younger generation of the human sect and the heaven sect. Now, they suddenly heard that one of the protagonists of the "battle between heaven and man" came down to the tomb to save them.
The mood of the Houtu Gang was like an old farmer in the field hearing that the emperor was coming to help him plant rice.
It was too dreamy to make people doubt its authenticity.
But it was Lina who said this. They all knew Lina's character. She was a naive and kind girl, without any schemes, warm to others, and would not lie.
However, this does not mean that she is a fool. The people of Hou Tu Gang once saw with their own eyes that a gangster who was recruited to explore the cemetery together tried to
defile her at night.
As a result, Miss Lina swung a slap, and the head exploded like a watermelon.
If you dare to travel thousands of miles from southern Xinjiang to the capital, you can't even reach Xiangcheng without some skills.
"The master of the Earth Sect, the monk of the Buddhist sect, the disciple of the Human Sect in the battle between heaven and man..." A member of the Hou Tu Gang swallowed hard,
looking excited:
"Then, what are the backgrounds of that man and woman? Who are they? To be able to travel with these people, they must be famous figures, Miss Lina?"
Excited eyes looked over, expecting to hear a dazzling name from her mouth.
Lina tilted her head, thought for a moment, and said, "I don't know him."
This answer is so disappointing......everyone thought.
At this time, Qian You coughed and asked, "Boss, you just said that there is a monster hunting
you. What kind of monster is it?"
"It looks like a giant lizard, but it has a human face and a mouth full of fangs. It moves very fast, but silently." The sick man boss's eyes flashed with fear, and he whispered:
"It likes to eat internal organs. Anyone killed by it has intact limbs, but the internal organs are
indeed empty."
This is not right. The lower body of the corpse I saw was bitten off... Qian You's heart sank,
and he asked again: "What about the size?"
"It's about seven feet long, not too big."
At this time, Lina's ears moved, and she caught a hint of unusual sound in the silent darkness.
She instinctively stood up and shouted, "Be careful, it's coming again."
As the voice fell, a shadow rushed out of the darkness, flicked its tongue, and rolled up the
nearest Hou Tu Gang member, and was about to roll him away.
Bang!
Amid the cracking sound of floor tiles, Lina rushed out like a cannonball and slammed into the
shadow.
The moment the evil creature was knocked away, it swung its tail and whipped Lina's back.
With a crisp sound, her clothes on her back tore, revealing her delicate skin and oozing fine
blood beads.
After the evil creature was knocked away, it suddenly became silent, as if it had retreated.
But Lina did not relax her vigilance, and listened carefully to catch the clues around her.
"Everyone be careful, this evil creature is very cunning, be careful not to let it sneak attack
us."
The sick man leader drew his weapon and waited for it with his gang members.
In the past few days, the members of the Houtu Gang died one after another, and the
survivors also understood the temperament of the monster.
The evil creature did not dare to fight against Miss Lina, and often hid in the dark waiting for
an opportunity to sneak attack them.
Once it succeeded, it left immediately.
Lina slowly stepped back and snatched the torch from Qian You's hand. Her cute face was full
of seriousness. She held the torch and listened for a moment, then suddenly threw it out. In the flickering firelight, everyone saw a huge lizard monster attached to the wall. Its two gray-brown eyes grew on both sides, slightly dull, and seemed to be insensitive to light. Qian You saw the monster's appearance for the first time. It was less than ten feet long, its tail was as long as its body, and its body was covered with thick keratin.
The moment the firelight shone on the monster, Lina, who had eaten, showed a powerful burst. She silently bent her knees, suddenly bounced, and her figure disappeared before the sound of the blue bricks breaking under her feet came out.
The monster attached to the wall noticed the abnormality, shook its body, and disappeared.
Lina, who had rich hunting experience in southern Xinjiang, chased after it. One person and one thing competed in the tomb. After a while, there was a "bang bang" sound of fighting,
the roar of the monster, and Lina's delicate rebuke.
Finally, everything was calm.
"Li, Miss Lina?"
The sick man leader forced his voice not to tremble.
In the dead silence, Lina's groan came: "It hurts so much." Then, she walked out of the darkness, dragging the corpse of the monster in her hand.
Cheers exploded, and the members of the Houtu Gang burst into tears of surprise, and shouted to vent their depression.
The crisis that had troubled them for many days was finally resolved.
Lina threw the corpse of the Yin creature in front of everyone and said happily: "Can it be
eaten?"
Dare not eat it, dare not eat it... The people of the Houtu Gang shook their heads again and
again.
"Miss Lina, this thing grows in the tomb, eats poisonous rotten meat to grow, and absorbs
the Yin and foul air. It is a highly poisonous thing for us." The warlock Gongyang Su
reminded.
"Hu, huhu..."
The sound of wind filled the corridor ahead, carrying with it a smelly smell, blowing out the
torches.
The sound of wind was like breathing, with a rhythmic rise and fall.
No, it was the sound of breathing.
Gong Yangsu's face turned pale, and he said hoarsely, "There is an evil spirit ahead,
something is coming."
The hearts of the people who had just survived a disaster and were in a happy mood sank.
"Go light the torch." The sick man leader ordered, and then looked at Lina with a serious face: "Can you still fight?"
Qian You ran to the torch tremblingly, took out the flint, and struck a fire with a click. His
hands kept shaking, and the flint could not produce a flame.
The breathing sound was getting closer and closer, and the smell was getting stronger. But
there was no sound of footsteps.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry up..."
Qian You was almost in a hurry. The flint ignited a weak flame and ignited the grease on the
torch.
"Whoosh!"
The flame rose and dispelled the darkness.
Qian You grabbed the torch and threw it far away without saying a word.
The torch fell to the ground, bursting with dazzling sparks. When the light suddenly brightened, everyone saw the scene in the corridor.
In the corridor, a huge Yin creature was crawling and forcing, just ready to hunt.
The body size of this Yin creature was three times that of the previous one, belonging to the
same species, with gray-brown eyes that were slightly dull, lips closed, but upper fangs
protruding.
And?!
The light from the torch only lasted for a moment, and the next moment, everyone could not
see it.
The sick man gang leader only felt a gust of cold wind passing by, as if something extremely
fast had passed by him at high speed, and then he found that Lina was gone.
"Lina!!"
The sick man gang leader shouted, turned around suddenly, and everyone did the same thing
with him.
Behind him, the monster grabbed the little girl from southern Xinjiang, shaking her head and swinging fatally.
The sick man gang leader's eyes were bloodshot, and he roared: "Save people, save people,
kill this beast."
In the darkness, Lina's painful roar came.
At this time, from the corridor on the other side, a shout came: "Retreat!"
A man in a green shirt holding a torch rushed out of the corridor, raised his sword finger and
pierced the torch. The flame seemed to be given life and jumped up in vain.
The green shirt man pinched a cluster of flames on his fingertips and suddenly popped out.
The flames broke through the air, rubbing a straight and bright thin line in the darkness, and
pierced into the back of the monster.
Bang!
The flesh and blood exploded, and the smell of burning filled the air. The Yin creature, which was suddenly attacked, let go of the prey in its mouth, came back to
its senses, roared deeply, and turned into a phantom and pounced on the man in green.
A figure flashed out from behind the man in green and rushed towards the Yin creature.
During the process, a spot of gold paint lit up from his brows and spread all over his body.
He roared deeply and rammed into it headfirst.
Duang! Sёarᴄh the NôvelFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
The Yin creature was like hitting an iron plate, its whole head trembled, and its forward body
got stuck. And the golden figure flew backwards, like a piece of magic iron, embedded in the
wall with a bang.
In this gap, another figure soared into the air, and while the Yin creature was dizzy, he jumped steadily on top of its head.
He chanted Amitabha in his mouth and raised his fist as big as a casserole.
Bang, bang, bang.....
In the dense rain of fists, the Yin object struggled violently, twitched all over, and finally lost
his life because his brain was beaten out.
Taoist Master Jinlian, holding a torch, was the last to appear, and said gently: "Don't be
afraid, we are here to save you."
Qian You shouted excitedly: "They are Miss Lina's friends, and I invited them to help."
The Houtu Gang stared at Taoist Master Jinlian, only to find that the other party was gentle and unfathomable, which perfectly matched the posture of the peerless master in their hearts. "Thank you Taoist Master for saving my life, thank you Taoist Master for saving my life."
The members of the Houtu Gang cheered.
Taoist Master Jinlian, holding a torch, nodded slightly, glanced around, and saw Lina lying in
a pool of blood in the darkness in the distance.
Taoist Jinlian went forward to check the situation. Half of her body was torn into a bloody
mess, and her internal organs were vaguely visible. Thin silver threads sprang out of the
wounds and flesh, which quickly covered the terrible wounds, stopped bleeding, and repaired the injuries.
If the natal Gu did not suffer trauma, the people of the Gu clan would not die.
Taoist Jinlian breathed a sigh of relief.
On the other side, Zhong Li grabbed Xu Qian'an's ankle, leaned back at a 45-degree angle, and
pulled him out of the wall.
Xu Qian'an dispersed the Vajra Invincible and asked loudly: "Master, how is your friend?"
"He was injured, but his life is fine." Master Jinlian waved to Zhong Li and said:
"Miss Zhong, do you have any healing pills?"
Zhong Li said "hmm", took out a porcelain bottle from her linen robe, and handed it to Master Jinlian obediently: "One pill a day, and you will be cured in three days." Master Jinlian pulled out the cork and sniffed it. It was a healing pill of excellent quality.
The Sitianjian is really rich. I haven't had the money to make pills for many years... Master Jinlian thought enviously, leaned over and pried open Lina's mouth and fed her a pill. Xu Qian'an held a torch and came over to look at the legendary No. 5. Her hair was black with
brown and slightly curled at the ends. The girl's figure was like a nimble female leopard. The facial features are quite delicate, with thin lips, a straight nose, and healthy wheat-
colored skin, which fits the image of a wild girl from southern Xinjiang. She looks good, with facial features slightly more three-dimensional than the girl from Dafeng...... She is a beautiful female netizen! Xu Qian'an nodded, quite satisfied. After confirming that No. 5 was fine, Xu Qian'an and Chu Yuanzhen and others waved torches
and looked at the corpse of the evil creature.
"What kind of monster is this?"
The uneducated Xu Qian'an said in his heart: Wow.
"It should be a tomb guardian beast."
The knowledgeable Chu Yuanzhen explained: "I have read relevant records. After the ancients
died, they would put strange beasts in the tomb and let them serve as guards to protect the
tomb.
"The number of such strange beasts will be very large at the beginning. If they want to
survive, they can only rely on devouring their companions or rotten corpses to fill their
stomachs. Until they slowly die out."
Taoist Jinlian added: "After generations of reproduction, they are nourished by Yin Qi, devouring corpses and poisonous creatures in tombs, and have long been unrecognizable, and
are very different from their ancestors."
"What is the value of the corpse?" Xu Qi'an asked.
Taoist Jinlian shook his head.
"Zhong Li, I will leave her to you, carry her well." Xu Qi'an realistically moved his eyes away,
no longer paying attention to the evil corpse, and said:
"Don't stay too far away from me, otherwise I can't take care of you."
If you stay too far away, my hidden wings can't protect you!
Taoist Jinlian was a little worried about this arrangement. After all, No. 5 was already injured.
It would be too cruel for her to follow the prophet of the Sitianjian. With this kid's luck, there shouldn't be any big problems...... Taoist Jinlian immediately
looked at the Houtu Gang who survived the disaster, comforted them a few words, and then said: "Follow us closely, we will take you out." After saying that, he motioned Xu Qiyan to lead the way.
A group of people held torches and continued to move forward.
The sick man leader looked at the backs of the masters and recalled the battle just now. The
man in green with a sword on his back must be one of the protagonists of the "battle between heaven and man".
The Buddhist monk was so powerful that he killed the evil creature with his bare hands. Miss
Lina did not elaborate on his identity. I thought he was just a helper, but who would have
thought he was so powerful.
The young warrior of the sixth rank looked very ordinary... The sick man leader thought to
himself.
In his opinion, it is natural for a sixth rank warrior with a bronze skin and iron bones to resist beatings, so Xu Qiyan's performance was mediocre and there was no outstanding operation. As for the woman with disheveled hair, she was weird and did not make a move, so it was
impossible to judge.
While thinking about it, the sick man leader heard his subordinates beside him say in surprise: "Out of the maze!"
At the end of the corridor is a huge tomb chamber, with a bronze coffin in the center. In
addition, there are some funerary objects in the room: gold, silver, utensils, ceramics, books,
etc.
Over the long years, the silver has been severely oxidized and has become waxy, while the
gold is relatively well preserved. As for the books and cloth, they almost break at the slightest
touch.
This tomb is not completely isolated from oxygen... Xu Qian'an glanced at it and asked, "Is
this the main tomb?"
"No, it's a side room."
The sick man gang leader said, "It should be one of the many side rooms guarding the main
tomb. "
The people of Hou Tu Gang were excited to collect valuable goods such as gold and silver, and turned a blind eye to books and other things. It was not that they were vulgar and only
recognized gold. On the contrary, Hou Tu Gang was professional.
So it was clearer that books could not be taken out of such an ancient tomb, as they had long
been decayed.
Chu Yuanzhen had an instinctive passion for books. He flipped through a few books casually,
and the pages were as brittle as ash, and they broke with a slight force. However, he did not gain nothing, at least he knew who was buried in the coffin.
"This tomb is not simple. It is the tomb of an emperor, and his concubines were buried with
him." Chu Yuanzhen said:
"What should we do now? If we go to the main tomb, we may encounter danger. If we return
by the original route, we will re-enter the maze."
As he said, he glanced at Xu Qian'an, "I think the latter is safer." Although I really want to know the identity of the owner of this tomb, safety comes first, safety comes first. Xu Qiyan nodded and agreed with Chu Zhuangyuan's proposal. Except for the unconscious Lina and the indecisive Zhong Li, the members of the Tiandihui all
agreed that returning the original route was the right choice. Immediately, he led the small fish of the Houtu Gang back to the maze.
After walking for an unknown period of time, Xu Qiyan led everyone out of the corridor and
entered a side room.
"Why are you back again?" The sick man frowned.
The members of the Tiandihui pondered in silence.
"Walk again." Xu Qiyan looked at Taoist Jinlian and others.
"Okay..." Chu Yuanzhen nodded solemnly.
After an unknown period of time, Xu Qiyan led everyone out of the corridor again and entered
a side room.
"Why, why are you back again? "The voice of the sick man leader trembled.
The faces of the other members of the Houtu Gang changed accordingly, some of them turned
pale, and their eyes were terrified.
"Again, go again?" Xu Qi'an swallowed his saliva.
".....Okay." Chu Yuanzhen said in a hoarse voice.
For the third time, they came to this side room again.
The tomb-robbing team was dead silent. Xu Qi'an twisted his neck stiffly and looked at Zhong
Li.
Zhong Li shook his head.
Taoist
Jinlian was silent for a long time, and sighed: "Let's go in. If we don't go in, we may
never get out of
this tomb."
Xu Qi'an, Chu Yuanzhen, and Hengyuan exchanged glances, gritted his teeth, and said:
"Okay."
Then, he looked at the people of the Houtu Gang and warned: "After entering the main tomb,
don't touch anything or talk nonsense. Do you understand?" Although the tomb robbers were greedy, they also knew that life was the most important
thing, and nodded repeatedly.
At this time, the old man in the dirty white robe looked at Zhong Li and said, "Don't use the
Qi-gazing technique here."
This old man... Xu Qian'an looked at him calmly.
Zhong Li lowered his head and pecked: "Hmm."
