Chapter 146: Tomb Robbers
Li Yu heard the chuckle from behind, and a touch of tenderness appeared in his eyes. Regardless of whether Miss Tang admits it or not, he has already decided in his heart that she is the person he is looking for.
Whether it was the few Buddhist scriptures engraved into his mind, or the feeling of closeness in the dark, it told him that this smart and beautiful girl was the little girl he was looking for. And the Master of Innocent that he met unexpectedly before gave him a clear direction.
He knew he had found the right place this time.
Li Yu has traveled the world with his father-in-law Li Su since he was a child, and has seen all the famous mountains and rivers, and also visited the large and small temples on the road. Although his stepfather didn't tell him much, he always felt that the seemingly free and easy stepfather was looking for something, or someone. It wasn't until he passed through the temple that his erudite father-in-law debated with the presiding master of the temple for three days and three nights, and suddenly decided to become a monk there.
He will not become a monk, because he is attached to the red dust, and he misses the person in the red dust who once saved him from the ten thousand arrows. He wanted to find the little girl and ask her why she had come to the rescue of a little boy who had almost killed her.
At that time, he had not yet met his stepfather, and he was just a little boy living with wolves in the mountains. He couldn't remember why he lived alone in the mountains and forests, fighting a horde of ferocious beasts for food every day. He only remembered the terrified but clear eyes when he pounced on a small man in a pale green robe.
"Let's go!"
The night pearl in Li Yu's mouth was finally spit out by him and his saliva, fell to the ground with a crisp sound, and then slowly rolled down a somewhat steep ramp until it stopped at a corner that was extremely far away.
"Isn't this a place you've just walked before?"
Tang Zixi's voice suddenly came from his back.
"I said why I can't get out all the time, and I dare to keep spinning in place. I said, big man, do you really know the road?"
Li Yu also felt that this place was a little familiar, and after being reminded by Tang Zixi, he really found that something was wrong.
The big man also stopped, standing a little stunned. Apparently he had never encountered this kind of thing before, and he didn't know how to solve it for a while.
Tang Zixi jumped off Li Yu's back, simply took out a jet-black knife and carved a figure in the corner of the wall, then stood up and said: "Let's keep walking along the right-hand side, make a mark when we walk for a while, I want to see if I really can't get out." After speaking, he didn't look at Li Yu and raised his feet and left, the big man was afraid that she would have an accident, so he hurriedly followed her.
Li Yu was a little confused, this girl didn't do anything excessively, and when he reacted, Tang Zixi and the two had already walked out for a distance, and hurriedly followed.
After walking for almost a pillar of incense, the three of them looked at the figure in the corner of the wall and were a little stunned, they actually returned to the original point.
"What should we do? Aren't we able to get out? This hellish place is called every day, and no one knows if you shout it out of your throat. How's that okay?"
Li Yu was really blind this time, he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, he didn't want to die in this ghost place, and there would be no one to condolence in the future.
Tang Zixi was also a little anxious, at this moment she was like an arrow and wanted to go home, but she didn't expect to meet the legendary 'ghost hitting the wall', in this deep underground world, it is false to say that she is not afraid, but she did not mess up because of this, and she fixed her mind and said: "Don't make any noise! Let me think about it!"
Li Yu closed his mouth and looked at Tang Zixi, who had a calm face. The big man also looked at her with blazing eyes.
Under the earnest gaze of the two, Miss Tang slowly closed her eyes, and at the same time turned her head slightly as if listening to something.
Time passed minute by minute, and the three of them stood quietly in place as if they had become three sculptures, just when Li Yu was about to fall asleep, Miss Tang suddenly moved, and gently tapped the wall with the handle of the knife as she walked.
She walked and knocked all the way, until there was a hollow 'bang' sound on the wall, and her face showed joy, and she turned her head to the big man and said, "Smash it open!"
The big man didn't say a word, he raised his big fist and began to pound, and before a few beats, cracks began to appear on the wall.
Li Yu looked a little sour, this is really a warrior, he has broken such a thick stone wall with just his flesh and blood. Before he could finish sighing, the entire stone wall shattered to the ground, and what was revealed inside made him take a few steps back, leaning against the wall and saying a little tremblingly: "Why are there so many corpses!"
Tang Zixi was also stunned, the scene in front of her instantly made her heart tighten, what a tragic scene this was.
It was apparently a hastily dug cavern, so it wasn't very deep, and there were almost a dozen or so bones lying in it, filling the entire cavern to the brim. Because of the shattering of the wall, some of the bones suddenly hung down on the outside of the wall, looking like a mess of firewood.
Who hid the bodies of these people here?
The big man didn't react to this, Tang Zixi didn't shout to stop, he continued to smash, and it didn't take long to smash the stone wall several feet away, and he didn't stop until he couldn't smash it anymore.
Tang Zixi walked slowly along the stone wall he had smashed, his fists clenched tighter and tighter, and behind this section of the stone wall was actually full of hidden corpses.
Some of them had become skeletons, falling to the ground and shattering into countless knots, while others had become dried corpses, still in full human form, but only in human form, and they could not be seen at all.
Walking and walking, a small skeleton that occupied a space alone attracted Tang Zixi's attention, looking at the shape of the skeleton, this person should still be a young child, she squatted down and looked at the small skeleton palm, a thick sadness hit her almost instantly, and the dripping crystal tears rolled down like broken pearls.
"He's not a child, he's supposed to be a dwarf, and if I'm not mistaken, he's most likely a dwarf who is a grave robber. Just when Tang Zixi was crying alone, Li Yu's voice sounded beside him, "Although he looks like a young child, if you take a closer look, his bones are extraordinarily thick, especially his two arms, whether they are much thicker than his leg bones, which are responsible for opening the way among the tomb robbers." ”
Tang Zixi looked at Li Yu with teary eyes, and said puzzledly: "You mean these people are ......?"
Li Yu nodded with a serious expression and said, "That's right, these should be tomb robbers." ”
"So many?"
Tang Zixi was a little incredulous, looked down at the skeleton at his feet, and suddenly felt a chill, and hurriedly stood up and walked away.
Li Yu instead strode forward, pulled out a small shovel with a strange shape from the stone pile and looked at it in front of him, and sneered: "I really guessed correctly!" Turning his head to Tang Zixi, who was stunned, he said, "There is nothing to sympathize with, they want to come here to make a fortune, so they naturally have to pay some price." Looking at the nearly 100 corpses, his eyes gradually turned blood-red, and he suddenly waved the small shovel in his hand and slashed at those corpses.
