Just when Chen Ziyang was worried about why there was no news of Umbrella Shishuai and Liu Cong, suddenly a series of noisy sounds came from the quiet tomb outside.

The sudden sound startled Chen Ziyang and Yang Lei, Yang Lei hurriedly pricked up his ears to listen, and Chen Ziyang, who was lying on the ground, also wanted to support his body and walked near the passage on the mezzanine to listen to what was going on.

But when Chen Ziyang was on the ground with his two hands, trying to support his body, he suddenly felt a sharp pain coming from his left arm. This sharp pain caused Chen Ziyang to fall down again, and only then did he remember the situation of his left arm.

Turning his head to look, Chen Ziyang saw that the muscles on his entire left arm had all atrophied. Now the arm was half the thickness of his right arm, and it was covered with folds of shriveled skin that looked like a thick, withered branch.

Especially his five fingers are so thin that people are scared, Chen Ziyang feels that if he sneezes, it is very likely that these fingers will be broken in an instant. Tentatively clenching his fingers, Chen Ziyang found that not only did his left arm not have any strength, but even these fingers could not be gathered together.

After just a preliminary attempt, Chen Ziyang gave up the idea of clenching his fingers, in addition to the great pain in his left arm, Chen Ziyang felt that if he used a little more force, it was very likely that his left arm would turn into ashes. Seeing that there was no hope for him to sit up, Chen Ziyang lay there quietly, listening carefully to the sound coming from the tomb outside.

At first it sounded like the shouts of a bunch of people, and they sounded so powerful that it sounded like there were many people working on something in one place, but then there were bursts of gunfire, and they were very dense.

After a while, the gunfire became sparse, and there were still many shouts, but these sounds sounded mixed with a lot of panic and fear, as if the people had been attacked by something, and turned into panic.

Then, the sparse gunfire slowly stopped, and after another series of shouts from each other, the burial chamber outside suddenly returned to calm. The huge contrast between the front and back made Chen Ziyang a little confused, and he didn't know what was going on outside.

Yang Lei had been looking out at the entrance of the mezzanine, but he couldn't see anything at all except the darkness. Although Yang Lei is also very curious now, he remembers Chen Ziyang's advice, no matter how curious he is, he will not step out of this mezzanine.

After the tomb was quiet again, Yang Lei craned his neck and looked out even more curiously, hoping to see other people. Although he didn't like Yoshioka Xiong and Instructor Liu very much, the quiet tomb now made his heart a little hairy, even if he saw the person he hated the most, it was much better than waiting for it like this.

The quieter the tomb outside and the longer the wait, the more Yang Lei felt a little uneasy, and even later when he looked at the dark passage, he felt a little scared, so Yang Lei hurriedly ran to Chen Ziyang's side, at this time there was someone by his side who was stronger than anything else.

Chen Ziyang understands Yang Lei's feelings very well, he is the same now, the more there is no sound outside, the more he feels that something bad will happen, and even as time goes by, Chen Ziyang feels as if something evil is staring at him all the time, and this thing is very close to him, as if this thing is lying behind him now.

This feeling made Chen Ziyang a little nervous, and he groped left and right with his right hand on his side, hoping to grab his Xuanming Ancient Sword to lift his qi. But after touching it a few times, he didn't touch the Xuanming Ancient Sword, but touched his backpack. So Chen Ziyang reached into his backpack and grabbed his soul-calming paperweight.

As soon as he grasped the handle of the paperweight, Chen Ziyang suddenly felt a warm feeling coming from the paperweight, and this feeling instantly spread from his right hand to his whole body. Although it was very stuffy in the mezzanine now, after this warm feeling spread throughout Chen Ziyang's body, he actually felt a little cool, and at the same time, his nervous mood calmed down a lot.

Just as Chen Ziyang was thinking carefully about the reason, suddenly, he saw a trace of black gas floating into the mezzanine from the passage. Yang Lei, who was beside Chen Ziyang, also stood up suddenly, his mouth wide open at these black gases, and he was at a loss.

This trace of black gas is like nothing, looming, slowly drifting from the passage into the mezzanine, suddenly, this black gas suddenly thickened, a large stream of black gas poured into the mezzanine, and instantly filled half of the space of the mezzanine. Seeing this, Yang Lei took a few steps forward nervously and blocked in front of Chen Ziyang.

"Eryang, what should I do?" Yang Lei suddenly opened his arms, wanting to protect Chen Ziyang who was lying behind him, and at the same time he turned his head and asked Chen Ziyang. But before Chen Ziyang could answer, this black gas suddenly pounced on Yang Lei's body.

As soon as he came into contact with this black gas, Yang Lei's body was like a kite with a broken string, and was violently pushed aside by this black gas, and slammed into the wall of the mezzanine, and then Yang Lei fell from the wall and threw himself on the ground.

Yang Lei, who had just come into contact with the ground, was instantly lifted up by this black gas, and the whole person was pressed against the wall of the mezzanine by the black gas, forming a large shape. Yang Lei struggled violently, but he found that he couldn't move, so Yang Lei could only desperately shout at Chen Ziyang.

Because it happened too suddenly, before Chen Ziyang could figure out what was going on, he saw Yang Lei's miserable appearance, and then this large cloud of black gas drilled into Chen Ziyang's nostrils.

Chen Ziyang just wanted to avoid these black qi, but his violent movements immediately pulled the wound on his chest and his left arm. The pain from the two places made Chen Ziyang fall there at once, and he could only watch the black qi burrow into his body.

After the black qi penetrated into a part, Chen Ziyang was even more unable to move, and he felt that his entire body was no longer obedient. From the gap in the black qi, Chen Ziyang saw what Yang Lei had been shouting to himself, but he couldn't hear what Yang Lei was shouting at all, and his ears were full of buzzing tinnitus.

Then Chen Ziyang saw that Yang Lei in front of him was getting more and more blurred, not only Yang Lei, everything he could see became blurred, and the color gradually faded. After a few seconds, everything Chen Ziyang could see turned black and white, and then the black area gradually expanded, until it was pitch black in front of his eyes, and Chen Ziyang didn't know anything.

Suddenly, seeing a huge crimson eye staring at him in the boundless darkness, Chen Ziyang woke up in an instant, and he felt that his whole body had been soaked with sweat.

Chen Ziyang woke up and found himself standing in a tomb. This burial chamber is very small, only a dozen square meters, and you can walk to the edge of the burial chamber in three or five steps. In the middle of this burial chamber, there is a coffin, on the other side of the coffin, at the edge of the burial chamber, there are three steps, above which there is a vertical stone platform, on which a blood-red diamond is slightly emitting red light.

Chen Ziyang couldn't remember how he got here, so he looked back and forth at this small tomb. Then he found a strange place, the edge of the tomb was pitch black, and there were no walls to be seen.

The edge of the tomb was like nothingness, there was nothing but darkness, but Chen Ziyang could clearly feel that it was the boundary of the tomb, and this feeling was very strange, as if it could only be felt in a dream.

"Am I really dreaming?" Because he felt very hot, Chen Ziyang stretched out his hands and pulled his clothes from the left and right, and at this time, Chen Ziyang, who lowered his head, found that the wound on his chest had disappeared. Feeling strange, he suddenly noticed that his left arm had also returned to normal.

Then the surprised Chen Ziyang stretched out his hands, raised them in front of him and looked at them carefully. That's right, the two arms are exactly the same, which is really weird, why is such a serious injury actually healed by itself?

Looking at his arm, Chen Ziyang realized that there was an extra tattoo-like thing on his right arm. This tattoo looks a bit like a unicorn, but if you look closely, it doesn't look like it, and the tattooed animal is thinner and longer than the unicorn. And the pattern of this tattoo, Chen Ziyang, feels a little familiar.

After thinking carefully for a few seconds, Chen Ziyang suddenly remembered that this pattern was exactly the same as the divine beast on the Soul Suppression Paperweight! This is really strange, Chen Ziyang has never had a tattoo, and he clearly remembers that this tattoo did not exist at all before he fell unconscious.

The whole thing was so unbelievable that Chen Ziyang couldn't figure out the key to it, so he could only focus on the only two things in this tomb.

The coffin placed in the middle of the burial chamber is very ordinary, and it couldn't be more ordinary. This coffin is a wooden coffin, the surface of the coffin is painted with tan paint, and there is no painting or decoration on the coffin at all.

Immediately after, Chen Ziyang looked at the stone platform a few meters away and the blood-red diamond on the stone platform. This diamond is the key to the treasure of an ancient country that sucked all the blood in his left arm before, because he has studied this diamond for many days, so Chen Ziyang is very familiar with this diamond, and he will definitely not be wrong.

Looking at this familiar diamond, Chen Ziyang felt that all this should still have something to do with this diamond. So he took two steps forward, trying to get closer to the diamond and take a closer look at what was going on. But at this time, something happened that surprised Chen Ziyang even more.

From where he was to the stone platform where the diamonds were placed, there was only a few meters away, and he only needed to walk three or five steps to get there, but Chen Ziyang felt that he had walked for a long time, but he still did not exceed the coffin in front of him.

At this moment, Chen Ziyang didn't dare to act rashly, this place was too strange, and he recalled the huge red eye that had just awakened him, Chen Ziyang felt that the eye was still staring at him, wanting to see his every move here.

"It's ...... A test of the keys? This kind of thought instantly came to Chen Ziyang's mind, and he felt that this idea was very reasonable.

This place is so unreasonable, all the structures and feelings here are exactly the same as in a dream, it seems that this is a dream of nothingness that those black qi have built for themselves after drilling into their bodies.

Chen Ziyang faintly had a feeling that as long as he could get the diamond on the other side, he would pass this test, and he would not only be able to leave here at that time, but also get the recognition of the key.

After trying to take a few steps forward, and when he found that he still couldn't surpass the coffin in front of him, Chen Ziyang knew that the only way to solve the mystery here was to crack the coffin in front of him.

So he took a deep breath and forced himself to focus all his attention on the coffin in front of him. Chen Ziyang had seen the coffin several times, and he couldn't see anything from the outside, so he stretched out his hands, grabbed the coffin lid, and with a fierce upward force, lifted the coffin lid, and pushed it forward, pushing the coffin lid to the side.

Whether it was lifting the coffin lid or pushing the coffin lid forward, Chen Ziyang felt that his hands were not subjected to a trace of resistance, as if the coffin lid was made of pieces of paper, which further affirmed his idea that he was indeed in a dream.

When the lid of the coffin is opened, the contents of the coffin can be seen in full view. Chen Ziyang looked carefully, a corpse wearing Qing Dynasty court clothes was lying flat in the coffin, the corpse's hands were crossed on the lower abdomen, and then he looked at the face of the corpse carefully.

However, what made Chen Ziyang feel strange was that the facial features of the corpse were distinct, the eyes were eyes, the nose was the nose, and the facial features were well on the corpse's face, but he couldn't see the appearance of the corpse clearly.

This feeling is very wonderful, I can see clearly, but I feel that I can't see it at all, it looks very distinct, but it feels hazy. After closing his eyes and pinching the bridge of his nose, Chen Ziyang sighed bitterly, there were too many things he couldn't understand.

Then he looked over again, and this time, Chen Ziyang suddenly found that above the head of the corpse, there was a bowl of white rice there, and when he saw this bowl of white rice, Chen Ziyang's eyes widened and he was stunned on the spot.
