The collapsed soil formed a slope, and the entrance to the black hole was just above the top of the slope.
Looking at the dark hole, our faces all froze.
But soon Master Liu said, "Let's go up and take a look first. After all, we have come this far. If we don't go up and take a look, we will be trapped here."
Now we are a little helpless and can only go with the flow.
Then, Jiang Xiaoyang took the lead and climbed up the slope first.
The soil on the slope was a little damp, but not loose, and was easy to climb.
Soon, Jiang Xiaoyang stood on the top of the slope. He straightened his body slightly and poked his head out of the black hole.
"How is it, is there anything going on?"
Hong Qingzong stared at Jiang Xiaoyang and asked in a serious voice.
Jiang Xiaoyang slowly bent down, gave us a mysterious smile, and said indifferently: "It's okay, you can come up."
I really didn't believe what he said, so I stopped Xiaoli and Uncle Sun and became the second person to climb to the top of the slope.
I stuck my head out of the black hole, took out my flashlight and shone it around, and found that the place we were at was actually a fork in the road. There were several earth holes around it, and I didn't know where they led to.
But after careful observation, I found a lot of red hairs and traces of trampling on the ground.
Suddenly, I thought of something.
Yes, I know this place. Although this is not the entrance of the earth cave where I hid from King Zhao, it is the fork in the road where I came before.
All at once I understood.
I know that we have not left the Tomb of King Zhao and are still inside the Tomb of King Zhao.
Under the slope.
Xiao Li was a little worried about me, and asked in a low voice: "Brother Tianyi, how is it up there? Is there any danger?"
I also bowed slightly like Jiang Xiaoyang, and shouted to the people at the bottom of the slope: "Come up, it's okay, we are still inside the tomb of King Zhao, and there is no danger around."
Jiang Xiaoyang next to me had already grabbed the edge of the black hole with both hands, raised one foot, and climbed out of the black hole.
Xiao Li, Master Liu and others below listened to what I said and put their worries aside. They supported each other and climbed up the slope.
There was not much space to stand on the top of the slope, so it was enough for two people to stand there. So, I put my hands on the edge of the black hole, shrank my body, lifted my feet, and suddenly jumped out of the black hole.
After Jiang Xiaoyang came out of the black hole, he wandered around the forks in the road, as if looking for a way to leave.
Duoduo flew to my side, her soul quietly floating beside me, observing the surroundings vigilantly.
I patted the dust off my body and said to Jiang Xiaoyang, "You don't have to look for it. I am quite familiar with the path here. Master Liu, Master Hong and I have been here before. There are some signs on the road, so it is easy to find the exit."
Jiang Xiaoyang looked at me, snorted coldly, but didn't say anything.
Soon, with my help, Master Liu, Xiao Li and others left the black hole and stood in the middle of the fork in the road.
I briefly explained the situation here, and both Master Liu and Hong Qingzong showed a little smile on their faces.
Master Liu nodded and said, "That's great. I didn't expect that we could actually escape from the main chamber of the Tomb of King Zhao. It was really not easy."
Several people had happy expressions on their faces.
Then, holding a flashlight, I led the way and we returned along the original route, heading towards the tunnel through which we first entered.
There are many paths, and you will come across holes from time to time.
Jiang Xiaoyang said that those earth holes were deliberately left around the tomb by King Zhao to confuse tomb robbers. Indeed, if someone without special abilities came in, it would be easy to get lost and be trapped to death here.
After walking for more than half an hour, a voice suddenly came from my head.
"Master, Master.
... ..are you there? are you there?"
It was the voice of the evil spirit Xiao Hei.
Hearing the voice of the Yin Ling Xiao Hei, I was a little angry, and asked him through voice transmission: "Where have you been? Why didn't I sense your presence before? Are you f*cking planning to abandon me and run away?"
I said unhappily.
A few days ago, I was trapped in the main tomb chamber of King Zhao’s Tomb, and I communicated with my “fellow ghost”, the evil spirit Xiao Hei, several times.
But I couldn't get in touch with it, as if it had disappeared from King Zhao's tomb.
But even if the evil spirit Xiao Hei left the tomb of King Zhao, I could still sense it.
But I didn't sense its existence at all at the time. I thought it was reduced to ashes.
Now it's back, and I'm a little relieved, even if I'm a little unhappy. I'm glad it's okay.
Perhaps thinking that I was going to blame it, the Yin spirit Xiao Hei immediately smiled and said to me, "Master, Master, please don't be angry. It's not that I didn't contact you, it's just that I made a big discovery."
Having said that, Xiao Hei started to talk a lot and kept me in suspense.
I angrily told him, "Stop talking nonsense and just tell me what you found!"
The ghost Xiao Hei chuckled and hurriedly said respectfully: "It's like this, Master, I found the entrance to the City of the Dead."
When I heard this, I was stunned and filled with surprise.
"What? You said you found the entrance to the City of the Dead. What do you mean? Isn't the entrance to the City of the Dead inside that haunted building? How can you say you found the entrance?"
Seeing the doubt in my words, Yin Ling Xiao Hei hurriedly explained: "No, no, no, Master, you are talking about the entrance to the ghost building. But there is a ghost tablet sealing it over there, so we can't get in at all."
"But this new entrance I discovered can lead to the City of the Wrongly Dead, and it is inside the Tomb of King Zhao. There are no restrictions at all. We can still get out of it."
Although the ghost Xiao Hei swore solemnly, I still had some doubts in my heart.
I asked him in a somewhat cold voice: "Are you telling the truth? Are you lying to me on purpose?"
When the Yin Ling Xiao Hei heard what I said, he was unwilling.
He said quietly, "Master, you can't wrong me like this. I am your fellow ghost now, and our thoughts are connected. I think you know best whether what I said is true or false."
Yes, the ghost Xiao Hei and I are in tune with each other and he did not lie to me.
I thought about it and whispered to him, "Okay, let's talk about the matter of the City of the Dead when we meet later. Come to me first."
"Okay, Master, I'll be right there."
After that, my contact with the evil spirit Xiao Hei was temporarily cut off.
However, I could sense that he was nearby.
Xiao Li had been walking beside me. Seeing that I was frowning, she asked me, "Brother Tianyi, what's wrong with you? Why aren't you talking?"
I was thinking about the City of the Dead when Xiaoli's words interrupted my thoughts.
I came back to my senses, smiled at her, put my arm around her shoulders and said, "It's okay. I just contacted the Yin Ling Xiao Hei, and he found out something."
Xiao Li nodded, and suddenly thought of something, and asked me, "Brother Yi, did he find any clues about my grandfather that day?"
Um, I forgot to ask this.
But it won’t be too late for me to ask after ** Ling Xiao Hei comes over.
"I don't know about this. He probably didn't find out."
After hearing what I said, Xiaoli's eyes showed a little disappointment.
A group of six people walked back and forth in the winding path.
At first I was standing in the front, but then Jiang Xiaoyang, for some reason, volunteered to take my place and stood in the front. Master Liu and the others didn't say anything, so I didn't pay much attention to it.
There are traces of white lime on the path, which makes it easy to identify the way we came.
After walking for more than ten minutes, Jiang Xiao
Yang suddenly stopped.
Hong Qingzong raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why did you stop?"
Jiang Xiaoyang shone the flashlight in front of him, his Adam's apple trembling a little, and he said nervously, "Just now, just now, I seemed to see a black shadow passing by in front of me."
Damn, I thought he was fearless.
It seems that although he is a descendant of ancient tomb builders, he is still an ordinary person and is afraid of ghosts.
I took a step forward and said with a smile, "It's okay, don't worry, he's my fellow ghost. I sent him out to look for someone earlier, and he just came back."
As I said that, I shouted to the front, "Xiao Hei, stop playing tricks and come out."
As soon as I finished speaking, a "hehe" laugh came from the path ahead.
Then, a dark shadow, like charcoal, slowly emerged from the earth wall in front. Who else could it be but the Yin Ling Xiao Hei
Xiao Hei scratched the few strands of hair on his head with one hand and chuckled awkwardly.
I glared at him and ordered, "Come here now."
The evil spirit Xiao Hei received my order and quickly flew to my side.
When he passed by Jiang Xiaoyang, he deliberately stuck out his tongue to scare the boy.
The boy was very calm before, but when he was frightened by Xiao Hei, his face turned pale and his legs started shaking.
I stood aside and said with a smile: "It's okay, Brother Jiang, don't worry, he won't hurt anyone, he's just teasing you."
Jiang Xiaoyang forced an ugly smile but said nothing.
Master Liu looked at Xiao Hei and then at me, and said, "We have been walking for a long time, let's take a rest first."
Master Liu also knew that I had not been able to contact the Yin Ling Xiao Hei before. It seemed that he had some doubts in his mind when he asked us to stop and rest.
Xiao Hei flew back to my side, and when he saw the troublemaker Duoduo, he showed his big front teeth and laughed twice.
He looked like a mouse seeing a cat.
It seems that he is very afraid of Duoduo.
Duoduo glared at the Yin Ling Xiaohei, pouted and said, "What are you looking at, little brat? If you keep looking, I will punish you."
Duoduo raised her fist, like a little sister who was about to punish her little brother.
The ghost Xiao Hei was a little scared and said hurriedly: "No, no, no, Master Duoduo, I know I am no match for you. Please spare me."
It's really interesting that Xiao Hei is afraid of Duoduo.
Duoduo leaned towards me and stopped talking to Xiaohei.
Master Liu and Hong Qingzong both looked at the Yin Ling Xiao Hei. They must have wanted to know why the Yin Ling Xiao Hei disappeared all of a sudden and why even their master couldn't contact him.
I looked at Xiao Hei with a gloomy face and said unhappily: "Tell me, what were you doing before? Why can't my mental power communicate with your spirit?"
Xiao Hei was afraid that I would punish him, so he chuckled dryly and explained what had happened before.
It turned out that after they separated, the evil spirit Xiao Hei went to explore the entire Tomb of King Zhao as I requested, and to look for clues about Jiang Jiuzhen.
But he wandered around in the tomb of King Zhao for a long time but found nothing.
Just after he entered a cave, he discovered that there was a stone slab deep in the cave.
The stone slab was embedded in the wall very abruptly, standing there.
At first, Yin Ling Xiao Hei didn't notice anything wrong and observed the stone slab for a while. But soon, he made a discovery.
After he used his ghost energy to move the stone slab, a path suddenly appeared behind the stone slab.
On the other side of the path was a faint green light.
The Yin spirit Xiao Hei flew in along that path.
After entering and reaching the end, he discovered that there was an independent space channel inside.
Driven by curiosity, he entered the space channel.
I didn't expect that the space passage was exactly the same as the one I saw in the haunted building, except that there was no ghost monument inside.
