Is Jiang Jiuzhen really dead? I still don't believe it.
Since Jiang Jiuzhen’s body has not been found, it proves that Jiang Jiuzhen may still be alive.
Of course, it is also possible that Jiang Jiuzhen is already dead, and his body was eaten by the cadaver rats and cannot be found at all.
My face turned pale and my brows were tightly furrowed.
Master Liu walked forward and said a few words of comfort to Uncle Sun and Xiao Li.
Sun Yaowen and Xiao Li knelt down facing the blocked corridor and kowtowed three times each.
I stood aside and lit a cigarette, and said in a deep voice: "I don't believe that my master Jiang Jiuzhen is dead. If he is alive, I must find him. If he is dead, I must find his body. We still have to look for him."
Xiaoli raised her tearful eyes and looked at me with a helpless look on her face.
Maybe in her heart, she felt that her grandfather Jiang Jiuzhen was dead.
After taking a breath, Xiao Li said to me softly, "Forget it, Brother Tianyi, don't be obsessed anymore, let's just leave here. Perhaps, coming here was a mistake. Now it seems that what Master Hong said is true, my grandfather is really trapped here."
"It's been more than three years now, and there's little hope that my grandfather will survive."
I can feel Xiaoli's sadness.
But I still don't believe that Jiang Jiuzhen is dead. He is a ghost-catching Taoist priest who possesses the Yin-Yang Soul-Transferring Notes. How could he die just like that? I don't believe it.
After a moment of silence, I said, "I think we should go deeper into the main tomb to have a look. Maybe after my master was trapped here, he got rid of those zombies and went to the main tomb."
Sun Yaowen stood by and said nothing.
Xiaoli bit her lips lightly, not knowing what to do.
Instead, Liu Deshui said, "Tianyi, what you said is possible. Although the tomb exit has collapsed, we still can't give up hope of finding it. Since this tomb is very large, let's waste some time and look for it."
"Miss Xiaoli may be worried about our safety. After all, this place is still very dangerous. But if we act carefully and avoid the zombie king Zhao, we should be fine."
I thought about it and said, "Okay, that's settled. After all, we're already here. I really don't want to leave like this."
After everyone reached a consensus and had no objections, we followed the corridor towards the main tomb chamber.
At this time, more than an hour had passed since we discovered the zombie king, King Zhao.
I have no idea whether those dead zombies have returned to the main tomb chamber.
I held a flashlight in my hand, and Xiaoli followed me, holding a white candle.
The smell from the broken limbs, rotten flesh and messy hair on the road was really unpleasant.
We all covered our mouths and noses, but the strong stench still couldn't be stopped from drilling into our noses.
After walking for more than twenty minutes, we appeared next to the atrium again.
But as soon as I got there, the mischievous Duoduo flew to my side and whispered, "Brother, it seems that someone else has entered this tomb. I can feel the presence of a human."
It's not surprising that the troublemaker Duoduo is a ghost and can sense human breath.
I was very surprised when I heard this.
I quickly asked Xiaoli to blow out the candle, and at the same time I turned off the flashlight in my hand.
"Master Liu, you guys stay here first. I'll go to the ear chamber to take a look. Duoduo said that someone else has entered the ear chamber and she can sense someone's presence."
Liu Deshui nodded and said in a low voice: "Okay, go ahead."
But Xiao Li grabbed my sleeve and said nervously, "Brother Tianyi, there's someone in the ear chamber again. Could it be that my grandfather is in there?"
Her guess is possible.
I shake
The head said, "I don't know. But I'll go over and take a look and find out."
"Okay, go ahead. Be careful."
"Well, don't worry, I will protect myself."
I nodded, and went to the stone door of the attic, then slowly walked in sideways.
The atrium is actually very large, and there is a short path connecting it to the corridor.
I walked along the path, my body pressed against the wall, and could hear faint conversations coming from inside the ear chamber.
"Dad, there are so many treasures here. We are rich now! Look at this painting. If it is sold, it will be worth at least several million. It is from the Ming Dynasty. Hehe, we are rich, rich!"
Hu Laifeng held the scroll painting in his hand, opened it a little, and said with joy on his face.
The young man stroked his beard, looked satisfied, and said with a smile: "Yes, the things here are very precious. Even if we get one, it will be enough for the two of us to enjoy for several years. If we take them all back, even in Xichuan City, our Hu family will be the richest."
"That's right, that's right! ... This time, we are lucky, thanks to Master Hong for bringing us here. Otherwise, we probably wouldn't have this opportunity."
As he spoke, Hu Laifeng looked at Hong Qingzong standing aside and said, At the same time, he put the sack in his hand on the ground and kept putting the gold, silver, copper, jade and agate into the sack.
I leaned over and looked over slightly, and found that there was a person standing not far from Hu Laifeng and his son.
The man was Hong Qingzong who was with them.
Hong Qingzong stood there with his hands behind his back, his back to me, motionless and silent. I didn't know what he was thinking.
"Master Hong, there are so many treasures here, why don't you pretend to be there?" Hu Laifeng asked Hong Qingzong in confusion.
Hong Qingzong snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "So what if it's a treasure? Can it be more interesting than immortality? Money is not very interesting if you have too much of it!"
Damn, you sound like you, Hong Qingzong, are so rich.
When Hu Laifeng heard this, he was stunned at first, then he laughed and said, "That's right, since Master Hong, you don't want these things, then my father and I will take them all. Anyway, we are local farmers, and we deal in these things. When the time comes, we can take these things out and sell them for money. Don't worry, Master Hong, you will definitely benefit from it."
Hong Qingzong said in a gloomy tone: "Benefits? No need for benefits! I'm not interested in money. If you are done with the installation, follow me to the main tomb chamber."
"Go to the main tomb chamber?... ... What are we going there for? Now that we have discovered so many treasures, we will naturally take them out. What's the point of going to the main tomb chamber?" Hu Laifeng asked puzzledly.
Hong Qingzong rolled his eyes at Hu Laifeng and said unhappily, "I didn't come here for money. I came here for the Immortality Map. I told you all this when I found your father earlier."
"Is that right, Master Hu?"
The man who was standing aside fiddling with the treasures put down the small tripod in his hand when he heard this, and then said to Hu Laifeng: "Laifeng, put down all the treasures first. The three of us will go to find the Immortality Map together. After we get the secret of immortality, it won't be too late for us to come back and get these treasures."
"The Immortality Diagram? What is that?"
Hu Laifeng listened to his father's words and obediently let go of the sack in his hand.
Hong Qingzong stood aside and said in a flat voice: "The Changshengtu is a scroll. It is said that it is hidden in the coffin of King Zhao. It contains the secret of immortality. So, we have to go to the main chamber of King Zhao's tomb."
Hearing the words "immortality",
Hu Laifeng was surprised and excited when he saw the Immortality Picture. He murmured to himself, "Can I really be immortal? Does this good thing really exist in this world? If I could get it, it would be great. Doesn't it mean that I can live forever? At that time, I can marry as many wives as I want."
"That's true, but I've never seen what the Longevity Map looks like, so I still need to look for it. Let's go to the main tomb chamber now. This is the side chamber, which should be not far from the main tomb chamber."
"Okay, okay, let's go now, let's go now!"
Hu Laifeng said with a grin.
But just as the three of them finished talking, there came the sound of "tap tap tap" of footsteps from behind the stone door next to them, as well as a low "uh uh uh" sound.
"Huh? Why is there a roar?" Hu Laifeng asked in confusion.
As for Hong Qingzong, his expression suddenly changed, and he hurriedly said, "Oh no, it's the zombies in the tomb. They should be rushing towards us. Let's go and find a place to hide first."
But just as Hong Qingzong finished his words, there was a loud bang and the stone door next to him collapsed.
Then, the dead zombies rushed towards **, Hu Laifeng and Hong Qingzong like mad dogs.
** yelled, "Damn it, they are zombies. There are so many of them."
As he spoke, ** took out a handful of glutinous rice from his body and threw it towards a zombie.
The glutinous rice really has an inhibitory effect on zombies. When it falls on the zombies, it makes a "sizzling" sound, which is very harsh.
Tiny grains of rice embedded themselves into the zombie's flesh and skin, sticking tightly to the zombie's body like glue. Like cold water meeting hot oil, they kept rolling around and corroding the zombie's flesh.
The zombie lay on the ground and started rolling around as if its body was on fire.
At this time, ** took out a cone-like object from his body, rushed over and stabbed the zombie's head hard. Only a muffled sound was heard.
Then the zombie became motionless.
And Hu Laifeng had obviously inherited his father's skills. The inkwell in his hand stretched out a long ink line, which was then wrapped around a zombie that pounced on it.
Under the attack of the ink line, the zombie's body was like a piece of tofu and was cut in half easily.
Seeing how they dealt with the zombies, I was really impressed.
If a ghost-catching Taoist priest were to deal with those dead zombies, he would probably have to resort to a lot of tricks.
But there were too many dead zombies, dozens of them. No matter how powerful the father and son were, they were no match for those zombies.
In the ear chamber, a candle placed in the corner was extinguished during the fight, and suddenly, the ear chamber became dim.
A magical weapon, a small sword, appeared in Hong Qingzong's hand.
The small sword actually flew into the air under the stimulation of Yin De's energy and shot towards several dead zombies. The yellow sword light flashed continuously and was quite bright.
With a dull "puff" sound, a dead zombie's head was hit by the small sword, and half of its head was cut off.
The rotten head tilted, and the dead zombie fell to the ground.
Seeing this scene, I thought to myself, these zombies in King Zhao’s Tomb are not that powerful. They are much weaker than the zombies I have seen before.
What I didn’t know was that all the corpse qi in the tomb of King Zhao had been sucked away by the Zombie King, so these dead zombies were naturally very weak.
At this moment, a furious shout suddenly came from the stone door: "You dared to break into my tomb? I guess you don't want to live anymore! I will chop off your heads."
Damn it, the Zombie King, that King Zhao appeared.
