Chapter 167: Grave Robbers' Chronicles Qi Yu 49
About ten minutes later, Qi Yu saw Zhang Qiling standing in front of a huge stone door, motionless and in a daze.
Zhang Qiling muttered to himself, "I seem to have been to this place before."
Qi Yu leaned close to him and comforted him softly, "That's good, at least we can be less dangerous."
At this moment, Zhang Qiling seemed to suddenly remember something, and walked quickly to the stone gate to examine it carefully.
After a while, he shouted with joy: "Come and see! Here is the mark I left before."
Upon hearing this, Qi Yu and Fatty Wang went forward to take a look, and indeed, they found some strange symbols carved on the stone gate.
Zhang Qiling explained that these symbols were left behind when he came here last time, so that they could serve as a guide for entering this place again.
Then, Zhang Qiling leaped forward and thrust the dagger in his hand into the gap of the stone door.
After hearing a few crisp "click" sounds, the stone door that was originally tightly closed slowly opened a crack.
Qi Yu and Fatty Wang were delighted upon seeing this, and quickly followed Zhang Qiling into the door.
In the bronze tree tomb chamber, Master Liang was already exhausted from the long journey.
He sat down on the ground, panting and said, "I can't do it anymore. I need to rest for a while."
Seeing this, Lao Yang, who was standing nearby, took the initiative to say that he had some food to share with everyone.
Master Liang nodded gratefully, then turned to ask Lao Yang why he had previously warned everyone not to touch those trees.
Lao Yang frowned and answered in a low voice.
"If you don't want to live, you can try, but don't blame me for not reminding you. Just do as I say."
Just as the three of them were sitting together eating, Wu Xie suddenly heard a slight noise.
He raised his head and looked around vigilantly, always feeling that there seemed to be something above silently watching them.
So he couldn't help but ask.
"Do you think there's any living thing hiding in this tree? I feel like someone is watching us."
"Then let's go up first." Lao Yang looked at the bronze tree with a serious face and suggested.
Master Liang, who was eating, nodded and said.
"Let me eat something and drink some water first."
After a while, Wu Xie and Lao Yang worked together to climb up the bronze tree.
As Master Liang stood alone in the darkness below waiting, his heart was filled with fear and his body began to tremble involuntarily.
The torch in his hand was accidentally extinguished due to excessive tension, and the surroundings were instantly plunged into darkness.
"Wu Xie! Let the rope down quickly!"
Master Liang shouted in fear to Wu Xie above.
After hearing the shout, Wu Xie dropped the rope without hesitation and quickly slid down the rope to Master Liang.
Just after pulling Master Liang up, Wu Xie caught a glimpse of something strange happening nearby.
Looking closely, they saw a monster that looked like an orangutan approaching them silently.
Faced with the sudden threat, Wu Xie and Master Liang panicked, but quickly calmed down.
Wu Xie noticed that the monster did not seem to show any obvious hostility, but was instead quite curious about their every move.
So, he had an idea and decided to try to imitate the monster's behavior to distract it.
Wu Xie deliberately made an exaggerated falling motion, and surprisingly, the monster immediately followed suit and also fell to the ground.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wu Xie quickly signaled to Master Liang and Lao Yang, urging them to flee from here quickly.
The group thought they had successfully avoided the monster's pursuit, but they never expected that the monster had amazing speed and agility. Not long after, it caught up with them again.
Qi Yu suddenly felt something strange behind her, and she immediately signaled Fatty Wang beside her to lie down.
"I didn't expect this place to be isolated from divine detection."
As Qi Yu spoke, he looked behind him with interest.
Zhang Qiling, who also noticed something strange, came up to Qi Yu and stared at the back.
Suddenly, a hideous monkey monster appeared in front of everyone.
Zhang Qiling was quick-witted and quick-handed. He quickly lit the torch in his hand and held it high.
The flames burned brightly, illuminating the surrounding darkness.
The monkey monster seemed to have an instinctive fear of fire, and was frightened by the sudden light and retreated into the darkness.
Master Liang, who was deeply affected by the monkey monster, was so frightened that he fainted.
Wu Xie was not afraid at all. Relying on his excellent "equipment", he bravely faced the monkey monster and soon started fighting with it.
Suddenly, Tai Er, one of Jude Kao's assistants, suddenly appeared.
He was seen holding a powerful machine gun and firing at the monkey monster without hesitation.
Bullets poured out like rain, accurately hitting the monkey monster's vital points.
With a shrill scream, the monkey monster finally fell in a pool of blood.
After the battle, Wu Xie asked Tai Er with a serious expression why he appeared here.
Lao Yang on the side interrupted curiously and asked.
"Is Wu Xie your friend?"
Tai Er shook his head indifferently.
Lao Yang's behavior made Wu Xie even more suspicious of the purpose of his appearance this time.
Then, Lao Yang talked thoughtfully about the legend that ancient civilizations trained gorillas to guard mines.
He speculated that perhaps the She people also used a similar method and trained a group of ferocious gorillas as guards.
Tai Er warned Wu Xie that this place was extremely dangerous and urged him to leave as soon as possible.
Wu Xie stared at Master Liang who was still in a coma, and thought that he had to let everyone rest for a while first.
He suggested stopping for a while and waiting for Master Liang to wake up before continuing on.
At this moment, Master Liang slowly opened his eyes, at a loss as to what to do.
However, Wu Xie, Tai Er and others have decided to continue exploring.
As he was walking, Wu Xie suddenly felt a familiar figure in front of him, and upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Qi Yu.
However, when he hurriedly turned back, he saw only an empty scene.
At the same time, Qi Yu, who was in another place, inexplicably had an illusion, as if he saw Wu Xie not far away.
Fatty Wang on the side saw this and jokingly said, "Boss, are you hallucinating?"
Qi Yu smiled and ignored Fatty Wang, but spoke to Zhang Qiling beside him.
"The energy here has hallucination-inducing and spatially overlapping effects, so be careful."
He was kind enough to give Fatty Wang an enhanced protective shield.
On the other side, after a long trek, Wu Xie and his group finally found a relatively safe place to rest.
Just when everyone let down their guard, Lao Yang suddenly turned around and shouted to Wu Xie anxiously.
"Hurry up! I'm worried that the monster will catch up with us again!"
Before he finished speaking, a sharp sound suddenly reached everyone's ears.
Everyone looked around in panic, only to see that Wu Xie's cheek had been stained red with blood.
He didn't even bother to wipe the wound and hurriedly urged everyone to flee the place quickly.
Just as they stood up and prepared to move forward, the scene before them stunned everyone.
Not far ahead, there lay a corpse with its eyes wide open and only the upper body left.
Wu Xie calmed himself down and said in a deep voice.
"These branches look very blunt, but if someone falls from a height with a certain speed, they will instantly turn into extremely sharp blades. The sound just now must have been made by the body falling."
As he spoke, Wu Xie looked at Lao Yang standing beside him. Why had Lao Yang been guiding him in various ways and doing some strange things along the way?
Wu Xie couldn't guess, so he had to turn his gaze to the bronze tree.
