One of them asked tremblingly: "You, are you humans or ghosts?"
"It's a ghost." When Gu Ning heard this, he found it funny and said jokingly.
However, the other party did not become more frightened because of Gu Ning's words. Instead, he breathed a sigh of relief: "If you can talk, you are a human. But hurry up, there are bats."
The other party was not curious as to why there were other people here. There were so many tomb robbers, so it was not unusual for someone to find an ancient tomb here.
A swarm of bats
When Gu Ning heard this, he immediately looked through and saw a swarm of black bats flying in an ear room, flying towards the tomb passage.
After those people said that, they hurriedly entered the ear room next to Gu Ning. They were about to close the door, but when they saw that Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting did not come in, one person shouted: "Hey, do you want to come in? If not, we will close the door." ”
They say that fellow travelers are enemies, and they are being kind enough by reminding them of the bat swarm. If they don't come in yet, if something happens, it has nothing to do with them.
Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting also went in immediately. Then, a man closed the door of the ear room, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
A few seconds after the door was closed, a creaking sound was heard outside.
"What should we do? Although bats are afraid of light and fire, there are too many bats and the light from our flashlight is simply not enough. Besides, is there anything that can be burned here?" said a man.
"Expose all the night pearls!" Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting said.
Leng Shaoting responded, then exposed the entire night pearl, and the entire ear room suddenly lit up like an electric light, frightening the four men.
Looking at the source of the light, the four people widened their eyes in shock: "Ye, night pearl..."
Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting remained calm, watching the changes in the expressions of several people. If these people didn't have any bad intentions towards them, Gu Ning would take them out without hesitation. If they wanted to take advantage of them, then Don't blame her for not saving her.
Among them, three people were shocked, but they did not show greed or calculation, but one of them flashed past greed and calculation.
Of course, not showing it didn't mean that he didn't think about it, but for the time being it only made Gu Ning feel hostile.
Gu Ning looked at a man who was about twenty-five years old and the youngest among them: "You are injured."
Yes, the man was injured, and he was bitten by a bat, because his face began to turn black, which is a phenomenon of poisoning.
Hearing what Gu Ning said, the other three men looked at the man and asked nervously: "Youngest, are you injured? Where are you injured?"
"I seem to have been bitten by a bat just now." The man then remembered the stinging pain on the back of his hand, and his face immediately became horrified, because they knew very well that the bats in the tomb absorb Yin energy all year round and are highly poisonous. of.
Although he won't die immediately, if he doesn't receive timely treatment, he will die within an hour or two.
"Medicine" The three men immediately took off their backpacks to look for medicine.
They often rob tombs, so they naturally have antidotes against various poisons with them.
After taking out the medicine, I immediately applied it to the back of the youngest's left hand and then took it orally. However, these medicines are very slow-acting and take a while to take effect. Moreover, even if the poison is detoxified, the body will be weak for a long time, and subsequent actions will be affected.
Gu Ning took out a small porcelain bottle, walked over, and handed it to them: "If you trust me, just take this. The medicine works quickly and takes effect immediately." Inside the porcelain bottle was Gu Ning's trial of spiritual energy crystals mixed with water today.
Those people looked at Gu Ning and did not accept it immediately. It was impossible to believe her. Who knew if the other party wanted to get rid of them and then take the antiques in the ancient tomb as their own!
However, they are not suffering from persecution delusions and do not want to easily label someone who does not understand them.
Gu Ning naturally knew that the other party was worried and said, "If anything happens, I will be responsible."
After hearing what Gu Ning said, they believed her for the time being, took the offer and thanked her.
They also know that although they have medicine, it does not work very slowly. Although it is not life-threatening, it will not heal for a while, which will have a great impact on the next actions.
After taking Gu Ning's medicine, he immediately gave it to the man.
Entering the clear water where spiritual energy blends, the man immediately felt a cool air, which was very comfortable.
The cool air quickly spread throughout the body, the wounds no longer hurt, the bleeding stopped, the physical strength quickly recovered, and the originally dark complexion also returned to color. This scene made several people marvel.
The man's wound didn't heal because he didn't have enough spiritual energy. Of course, this was Gu Ning's intention because he didn't want the effect to be too abnormal and cause trouble.
"Thank you, girl." The four men thanked them again.
"You're welcome." Gu Ning did not take credit, and then asked, "You are professional tomb robbers. I don't know if you have noticed that this tomb is unusual." Gu Ning said.
In fact, Gu Ning wasn't sure whether they felt something or not. It was just a trick to deceive them.
However, when the word "unusual" was mentioned, the expressions of the four people changed one after another. It was obvious that they had experienced something unusual.
Yes, their health has not been good since they came out of the tomb last week, so they did not rush to come over the next day to take away the other antiques. Instead, they came over a week later when they were almost recovered. .
During that time, they either had nightmares or were depressed, sometimes so weak that they fainted.
However, when the other party said it was unusual, was this what he was referring to? Because they didn't know Gu Ning's purpose, no one said anything. They just looked at Gu Ning and waited for her next words.
"Looking at your looks, I know it. Out of conscience, I sincerely warn you. But whether you believe it or not, and whether you listen or not, that is your business. The things in this tomb are not clean and are contaminated. Qi, if you take it, the Yin Qi will enter your body. The milder ones will often have nightmares, lack of energy, and look pale. The more serious ones will be weak and faint, and even put your life in danger." Gu Ning said.
This sounds mysterious and hard to believe, but the four people who have experienced these things cannot doubt it, because they have experienced such things.
"What should we do?" When the man bitten by the bat heard this, his face turned pale with fright and he asked nervously.
"What do you mean, girl, that we don't want those antiques anymore?" the man in his mid-thirties asked, with a somewhat unpleasant tone.
"If your life is at stake, give up the contents of this tomb. If your life is at stake, take it." Gu Ning said.
"Don't scare us. If we give up, you can take it all in, right?" The man in his early thirties immediately retorted unconvinced.
