The moment I took the stick, I understood what Liu Laoqi meant.

There are many dangers in this ancient tomb, and no one knows what danger will happen in the next moment, since this corpse wheel blood tree can really restrain the corpse poison, maybe there are other wonderful uses that we don't know, and it is naturally best to put a piece on the body.

Subsequently, Liu Laoqi and the rest of his subordinates also cut a small wooden strip from the trunk of the tree and carefully placed it on their bodies.

After all, this thing can save lives at a critical moment, and no one dares to be careless.

After doing this, Liu Laoqi threw the remaining trunk into the underground river again.

Although such a large piece of wood from the corpse wheel blood tree could be sold for an astonishing price in the tomb, it was impossible for everyone to carry such a piece of tree trunk the size of a millstone with them while they were still in the tomb at this time.

In order to break the greed in the hearts of his tomb robbers, Liu Laoqi simply threw it back.

Soon, the trunk of the tree washed into the underground river cave with the rapids and disappeared from view, perhaps never to be seen again.

"This trunk must have been brought out of the tomb by the former inverted man, who had died in the mouth of a ghoul fish without thinking about it. However, this man is persistent, and he will not let go even if he is dead, otherwise we may not be able to see this tree trunk today. After the trunk disappeared, Liu Laoqi turned around and said.

I didn't answer, and turned my head to look at the skeletons in the river, feeling a little emotional.

Everyone who died here may have their own wives and children, but they buried their lives for something that didn't belong to them, is it really worth it?

It's time to leave this stalactite cave, and although there have been many things before, it has also been a blessing in disguise.

Li Huiyan was bitten by a corpse fish, and Xiao Yue was cured of the corpse poison on her body, and in addition, everyone also got a piece of the legendary corpse wheel blood tree amulet. This can't help but make me feel a lot more at ease about what danger I will encounter next, at least I don't have to worry about the thousand-year-old female corpse that I don't know where to hide.

"Let's go, the sooner you enter the tomb, the sooner you can get out of here." Liu Laoqi said and walked to the underground river.

At this time, in the underground river, all the ghoul fish were gone. Except for those who died because of the blood of the Yin Being, the rest of the people who were about to die were also washed away by the river, and we were able to cross the river with peace of mind.

Out of caution, Liu Laoqi still tried it with the previous method.

After squeezing out a few drops of blood and dripping into the river, Liu Laoqi quietly observed for a moment. Except for the swaying roots, the river was calm.

Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

If there are still corpse fish in the river, I'm afraid we will have to spend a lot of effort to cross the river. Although these little things are not big, they are fierce and hard as iron, which is indeed difficult to parry.

Seeing that there was no danger in the river, Liu Laoqi took the lead in going down the river, and easily swam to the other side of the river in less than a minute.

Seeing this, the rest of the tomb robbers followed suit, and most of them had already passed in an instant.

"Which of you goes first?" I glanced at Li Huiyan and Xiao Yue, and asked with some embarrassment.

"Rice cake, you can take Sister Li Zi over, I'll swim over by myself." Who knew that Xiao Yue smiled playfully when she heard this, and then jumped directly into the water.

"I'm going to trouble you again." Li Huiyan was a little embarrassed, but she still took the initiative to reach out and hug my waist.

"It's okay, you just helped me take a bite of the corpse fish, and you didn't say anything." I shook my head and said.

About ten minutes later, everyone came to another T-shaped intersection, and looked at the two tombs in front of them with some difficulty.

There are no stone gates on these two tombs, and there are no ancient characters carved around them that can be discerned and referenced, so it is really difficult to distinguish which one is the correct path to the tomb.

I took a look at the two tombs and noticed that there were some differences between them.

The tomb on the left was bare, with nothing but some damaged and fallen bluestones. The tomb on the right is different, there are several corpses that have long since decayed, lying in the grave passage.

"Seventh Master, what should I do now?" The one-eyed tomb robber asked Liu Laoqi.

Hearing this, Liu Laoqi only frowned and did not speak, it seems that even he has not been able to distinguish which of the two tomb roads leads to the main tomb for the time being.

"I don't have to think about it, I must take the tomb road on the left. There must be a danger in the graveyard on the right, so why don't you leave the safe road behind. As soon as the one-eyed grave robber finished speaking, the monkey's voice rang out again.

The monkey's words sounded reasonable, and the rest of the grave robbers immediately agreed.

I kept my eyes going back and forth between the two graves, always feeling that something was wrong.

"What do you think, nephew?" Liu Laoqi turned around and asked me.

I'm a little helpless, Liu Laoqi always likes to ask me any questions he encounters now, which can't help but make me a little big, and using my brain has never been my strong point.

"That...... On the surface, it is true that the tomb path on the left is safer, and it looks like the right passage. Merely...... Put yourself in your shoes, if I were the owner of the tomb, it would be impossible for the road leading to the tomb to be without any hidden weapon mechanisms. ”

In the end, in desperation, I thought a little and said what I thought.

At present, these two tomb passages are much less than the eight passages that Li Huiyan and I encountered before, but in fact there is no difference, and it is still necessary to make a weighing and choice between the two.

Although these two graves are not blocked by stone gates, I always have a hunch in my heart that no matter which grave path we choose, it will be impossible to return here.

Liu Laoqi frowned, his eyes kept scanning back and forth between the two tombs, and he couldn't make a decision for a long time.

"Winter melon ......"

At this moment, Xiao Yue's exclamation suddenly sounded beside him.

"Beauty...... Beauty, you ...... What are you calling me for? Hearing Xiao Yue's exclamation, Liu Laoqi's nephew Donggua tilted his head and stammered a question.

"Big fat man, you are amorous, and my aunt didn't call you." Hearing this, Xiao Yue rolled her eyes, turned to me and Li Huiyan and said, "I saw the winter melon just now, it's true, it's in the tomb on the left." ”

Xiao Yue said as he raised his arm and pointed to the empty tomb on the left, looking very confident.

"Winter melon? Are you talking about Qin Dong? Xiao Yue's words made me not react for a while, and after a while, I realized that the winter melon she was talking about was Qin Dong, one of the disappeared trio, and asked with some surprise.

"That's right, it's him, who else can he be, is it still this big fat man?" Xiao Yue nodded and said, and after speaking, he gave Liu Laoqi's nephew a blank look.

"Xiao Yue, you have to figure it out, now is not the time to joke, are you sure you saw Qin Dong in this tomb? We must not talk nonsense, lest we harm all of us. ”

I looked along the tomb on the left that Xiao Yue was pointing to, but I saw that there was half a figure in the empty tomb road, and I couldn't help but be a little suspicious of what Xiao Yue said.

The tomb on the left is very long, stretching straight forward for at least 50 meters, and is made of hard bluestone slabs on all sides.

If Qin Dong really appeared in this tomb just now, how could there be no half figure at this moment? Could it be that he will disappear out of thin air?

"Oh, how can you believe me, I swear that if I have half a lie just now, I will be punished for not having snacks for the rest of my life." Xiao Yue was so anxious that she stomped her feet on the spot, raised her fingers and swore a poisonous oath that she thought was the most poisonous.

This time, even I didn't know what to say.

Others may not know Xiao Yue, but as a classmate who has been in the same class as her for three years, I still know a little about her.

Xiao Yue usually belongs to the kind of person who regards snacks as more important than his life, except for sleeping and going to the toilet every day, the rest of the time is either eating snacks or on the way to buy snacks.

This kind of poisonous oath sounds a little funny, but for Xiao Yue, I'm afraid that no poisonous oath can beat this.

"What do you think?" I turned around and asked Li Huiyan.

Looking at Xiao Yue's appearance, it doesn't look like he's lying. Of course, it is not ruled out that she has just detoxified the corpse poison in her body, and her brain is still a little sober, and her eyes may be spent. If Qin Dong was really in this tomb just now, there was no reason why he didn't say hello when he saw us, we were trying our best to find them, and the three of them should be looking for us as well. Li Huiyan thought for a while and said.

Li Huiyan's words were not unreasonable, and I nodded again and again.

Indeed, under normal circumstances, Qin Dong would definitely run up to say hello as soon as he saw us, instead of running away without saying a word.

"Anyway, I really saw the winter melon, believe it or not." Seeing that we were still suspicious of her words, Xiao Yue suddenly said a little angrily.

"We didn't disbelieve you, we just thought it was a little too weird. There are many dangers in this tomb, and everything must be done carefully. Li Huiyan said.

"Virtuous nephew, who is the winter melon that your friend is talking about?" At this time, Liu Laoqi finally spoke up and asked me.

"Oh, Uncle Seven, that winter melon is also my friend, in fact, we have three other friends who got separated when they entered the ancient tomb, and we are also looking for them." I replied.

Liu Laoqi nodded and didn't ask anything more.

Suddenly, just as I was a little distracted, a slender white shadow flashed in the tomb on the left and ran into the darkness.

I hurriedly used a flashlight to shine into the tomb, but due to the limited brightness of the flashlight in my hand, I watched the back of the white shadow disappear, but I couldn't see his specific appearance clearly.

"You...... Did you see that too? I turned my head and saw Li Huiyan beside me with wide eyes and an incredible expression, and I couldn't help asking.

Li Huiyan didn't speak, but her surprised expression already said it all.

Li Huiyan also saw it, it wasn't for me to be dazzled, there was indeed a white shadow in the tomb on the left, which suddenly appeared and disappeared quickly.

"Hmph, you're finally willing to believe me, aren't you? I'll just say, I just saw a winter melon, and you still don't believe it. Seeing the appearance of Li Huiyan and me, Xiao Yue suddenly snorted, which can be regarded as avenging our previous suspicions of her.

"I didn't see the appearance of the white shadow clearly, how can you be sure that it was Qin Dong just now?" I ignored Xiao Yue's triumphantness, and asked puzzled.
