Volume 6 Ancient Doubts Chapter 510 A Thick Tree Root

Bai Yang and the Red Gate Lord took advantage of the anxiety of a few inverted people, and still briefly surveyed this tomb.

They found that the lid of the stone coffin in the middle of this tomb had not been opened, so it was more certain that Zheng Xiangtai's brothers and sisters were attacked in one tomb first, and then either chased the monster directly to other tombs deeper to save their companions, or fought with the monster from the previous tomb to this tomb, and in this tomb they were all wiped out, but their bodies were all dragged away by the monsters, leaving only tools, backpacks, and weapons and other things.

This conjecture made Bai Yang secretly frightened, thinking that the monster could suddenly attack at any time from the three passages in front of him, or even the passage they had just walked into, Bai Yang did not dare to relax in the slightest, so he asked Sun Hao and others to help the Red Gate Lord remove the lid of the stone coffin, and he and Tie Niu carefully guarded against a total of four passages in front of and behind the tomb.

Soon, the lid of the stone coffin was removed, and the lord of the red door couldn't help but let out a soft cheer and said with a smile: "Poplar, you can rest assured now! The material of this wooden coffin is exactly the same as the one in the previous tomb, and on the coffin lid, it is also engraved with the same pattern and font as on the lid of the wooden coffin in the previous tomb!"

Bai Yang was overjoyed, glanced back, and said, "So the person in this coffin is another beloved woman of Yuan Tiangang?

"I think it should be!" replied, "Since they are both Yuan Tiangang's beloved women, they will naturally be treated equally! And looking at the structure of this tomb, it is very likely that if you pass through the correct passage of these three passages, you will be able to enter the core tomb! That is to say, this tomb is closer to the core tomb, so although the coffin in front of me is also Yuan Tiangang's beloved woman, its identity is likely to be slightly higher than that of the woman in the tomb outside!"

Bai Yang was naturally convinced of the Red Gate Lord, and hurriedly said: "Since this is the case, then re-close the lid of the stone coffin, don't open the wooden coffin again, causing the spices inside to be lost, and the women inside will quickly wither and decay!"

The Red Gate Lord nodded, still beckoning Sun Hao and Li Da Li Er to work together to re-close the lid of the stone coffin.

Zheng Xiangtai couldn't intervene with Lao Zhufeng, and squatted in the corner to inspect the antique relics.

Although there are poplars staring coldly, it is impossible for them to touch one or two pieces, but it is good to have a good time.

Just as he was admiring the exquisiteness of those cultural relics, suddenly in the corner of his poplar eye, he caught a glimpse of a black shadow flickering on the ground.

Poplar shouted, "Be careful!" and immediately jumped away, flying towards the black shadow.

But the black shadow was too fast, and in such a moment, Lao Zhufeng screamed "Oops", and he was already swept by the black shadow, and dragged it towards the left passage.

Bai Yang hurriedly took a shortcut, and his figure rushed to the mouth of the passage as fast as the wind, and the black sword slashed down.

He distinctly felt the tip of his sword slash into an extremely tough object.

Fortunately, the black sword was extremely sharp, and the speed of his sword was unmatched, just heard the sound of "click", the object was cut off from it, and the remaining part of the object quickly retracted into the passage, while Lao Zhufeng was still screaming, and the whole body slipped to the feet of the poplar due to inertia, and was grabbed by the poplar with his hand.

Several people all rushed over, hearing that Lao Zhufeng was still lying on the ground screaming, Sun Hao hurriedly slapped him and shouted: "Master Lao, it's okay, Little Brother Bai saved you!"

While speaking, Li Da and Li Er hurriedly helped Lao Zhufeng to sit up.

On the contrary, it was Zheng Xiangtai who did not come back to his senses until this time, and hurriedly came over to appease Lao Zhufeng.

Poplar put away his black sword, bowed his head and bent down to pick up the object he had cut off from the ground.

He thought it should be a giant python or something, or some monster with an extra-long tongue, but he never expected that what he was holding in his hand was actually a tree root.

"What kind of monster is it?" asked the Red Door Master.

Poplar silently handed over the root.

The Red Gate Master only glanced at it, and then couldn't help but exclaim: "The root of the tree?

Everyone else also gathered around, and when they saw that the master of the red door was indeed holding a tree root, everyone couldn't help but look at each other.

"How can this be? Lao Bai, we have encountered enough strange things, but we have never encountered them...... The roots of the tree can actively haunt people as if they were alive!" said Tie Niu.

Poplar shook his head with a wry smile and said, "I don't know what's going on, Tree Root...... It is certainly impossible to take the initiative to pester people, unless...... Is there something that uses the roots of a tree as a whip, but ...... What could have such a skill?"

"I don't think it's possible!" said the Red Gate Master suddenly, grasping the root with both hands and bending it hard, "Poplar, look at how hard this root is, what kind of person, or what kind of monster, can have the ability to make it so soft that it wraps around people's legs and feet like a whip?"

Poplar took the root and bent it in his hand.

The roots of the tree were as thick as a child's arm, and it really took a lot of effort to bend them, and no matter how capable a person or monster was, it was impossible to use such a thick root as a soft whip.

"This, this, this...... How is it possible? How can such a thick root wrap up my calf?"

Lao Zhufeng cried out, snatched the root of the tree in the hand of the master of the red door and tried to bend it, then simply sat on the ground, and rolled up his right trouser leg to show a few people.

Everyone could clearly see that above his right calf, there was a clear strangulation, and it was obvious that something resembling a rope had been bound and wrapped around his calf.

But that cut of roots, let alone wrapping up, even if you want to wrap it around the calf of Lao Chafeng, it is not easy.

"Little Brother Bai, what's going on?" Sun Hao asked blankly, "How can such a thick tree root be wrapped up in Master Lao's calf and dragged away?"

"I don't know!" Poplar shook his head with a wry smile, "But it's true, I just cut off this tree root, and Master Lao was saved!"

Everybody again, you look at me, I look at you.

Zheng Xiangtai took a breath and asked the Red Gate Master with a wry smile: "The Red Gate Master, you are very knowledgeable, do you think ...... What could be at work? In this world...... Is there any demon magic that can use tree roots to attack humans?"

"I don't know!" the Red Gate Lord shook his head, "At least I haven't heard of it!"

"Then what should we do now?" Zheng Xiangtai asked, shifting his gaze from the Red Gate Lord to Bai Yang.

Poplar's heart was spinning rapidly, as Iron Bull said, he had encountered enough weird and terrifying things with Iron Bull, but it had never been so weird.

Thinking of the roots hanging from the top of each passage and each tomb all the way in, and the wall on the left side of each passage and each tomb was also cracked by a thick tree root, if the monsters in this tomb were really related to tree roots, then they were basically dead now.

"Let's get out first!" Poplar quickly decided, "Whether it's these roots doing tricks, or some monster manipulating these roots, it's hard for us to deal with, let's get out first and then discuss slowly!"

Previously, Zheng Xiangtai and Lao Zhufeng were eager to withdraw from the tomb quickly, but now that Baiyang really said that he was going to quit, Zheng Xiangtai blurted out: "But that ...... The legendary Book of Destiny ......"

He didn't finish his words, and probably he himself felt that it was important to save his life.

Li Da couldn't hold back his sneer and said, "Why is Master Zheng still thinking about the Book of Destiny when he arrives? It's not certain whether we can escape or not, don't forget, we walked in all the way, but we saw tree roots everywhere!"

Zheng Xiangtai was speechless, and could only say embarrassedly: "I'm just talking casually! Since Little Brother Bai decided to quit first, then ...... Let's go!"

"But we haven't registered the artifacts in this tomb yet!" said Tie Niu.

"Exit first, and the rest will be talked about later!" Poplar decided.

Tie Niu naturally didn't say much, and the group immediately turned around and ran towards the passage they had just entered.

For fear that there would be more tree roots and the like rushing out to attack, Zheng Xiangtai and Lao Zhufeng ran the fastest, while Poplar and Tie Niu walked last with full defense.

Unexpectedly, before he passed through the passage, he walked to the living female corpse tomb in front of him, and Lao Zhufeng screamed again, only to hear a "plop", Lao Zhufeng seemed to fall to the ground again.

"Old Black, you carefully protect the Red Door Master!"

Poplar shouted in his mouth, and his figure floated, and he had already passed the others and rushed in front of everyone.

I saw that Lao Zhufeng had really fallen to the ground again, and his whole body was being dragged upside down.

Lao Chafeng scratched and scratched the ground in vain with both hands, and his mouth let out a sharp cry: "Help me, help me!"

Poplar hurried forward, but Lao Zhufeng was dragged too fast by the ground to catch up with Poplar's speed.

On the contrary, when Lao Zhufeng was dragged into the dome tomb in front, and when he entered the right passage in front of him from the left passage of the dome tomb, his whole body was thrown up, and he hit the corner of the tomb wall with a "bang".

Poplar continued to chase closely, but he heard a "bang", and the passage in front seemed to collapse entirely.

Poplar felt that the dust was everywhere, and in a hurry he strained his heels, and in an instant he changed his forward and backwards, and his whole body shot backwards, and re-entered the domed tomb.

Looking closely, it was true that the passage in front of him had collapsed, and if he had retreated a little slowly, he would have been buried under the collapsed dirt at this moment.

But as soon as he stood still, he heard Zheng Xiangtai's exclamation, followed by the exclamation of the Red Gate Lord, and the loud shouts of the Iron Bull also reached his ears.
