When Yang Qi came down, he was only thinking about how to quickly enter the ruins. To him, such a cliff did not pose any danger at all. However, he forgot that he could not bring Mu Yan and the others out without a rope.
For Yang Qi, the cliff of several hundred meters was only a matter of ten or twenty breaths.
Whoosh~
A figure flew out from the fog.
"senior."
Seeing Yang Qi, Mu Ying became excited.
Yang Qi had been down there for several hours. The canyon was not big, so he should have been able to explore it long ago. However, Yang Qi had not returned for such a long time, and he was very worried.
Finally, after several hours of suffering, Yang Qi came back.
As for Mr. Xie who was standing aside, he was trembling all over. He opened his mouth but said nothing. However, Weiwei's trembling body showed the worry in his heart.
"Don't worry, Mu Yan and Miss Xie are fine, but the others have suffered heavy losses. I'll come up to get the rope. They can't come up alone." Yang Qi said.
"Good, good, that's great." Mr. Xie said excitedly, "It's good to be alive."
Upon learning that his granddaughter was still alive, Mr. Xie's expression became much more natural.
Originally, a lot of ropes were prepared in order to enter the canyon. When Yang Qi needed them, they took them out immediately. These ropes were specially made by the army. They were not comparable to those ropes on the market and were tougher and more durable.
There were a total of twenty ropes, all held in Yang Qi's hands. Then Yang Qi jumped and disappeared into the fog.
About ten minutes later, Yang Qi finally emerged from the mist with the cool and beautiful woman.
"The others have already tied the ropes, you slowly pull them up." Yang Qi said.
Ordinary people cannot climb up a rope that is several hundred meters long. Even the elites in the army cannot climb it. Only Mu Yan and others can do it. They can only rely on the help of people on the cliff to slowly pull them up.
Hearing Yang Qi's words, Mu Ying immediately ordered everyone to start pulling the rope up slowly.
"Grandpa." The cold and beautiful woman's eyes couldn't help but turn red when she saw Mr. Xie.
"That's good, that's good." Mr. Xie said excitedly.
“I’m fine, but…” The cold and beautiful woman thought of the eight people who died in the ruins, and a hint of sadness appeared on her face.
Eight people, including archaeological experts and military elites, died in an inconspicuous ruins.
Soon, Mu Yan and the other two came down from the cliff, and the others were slowly pulled up as well. Eight bodies were also pulled up.
“Bang!”
Looking at the eight bodies, Mr. Xie took a deep breath and saluted.
Although these soldiers did not die on the battlefield, they still died in battle and were worthy of their status as soldiers.
The soldiers on the side fell silent. The elite soldiers who entered the ruins this time were their comrades. They were still alive and kicking a few days ago, but now they are cold corpses. In peacetime, there are too few soldiers who died in battle.
"Mr. Yang, thank you for your help this time, otherwise..." Mr. Xie looked at Yang Qi with gratitude.
"It's okay. Compared to the sacrifice of soldiers, it's just a small matter." Yang Qi said hurriedly. From the traces of battle, it can be seen that the dead soldiers stayed to resist the puppet beasts in order to cover their teammates' retreat. He also admired the soldiers who died in the battle.
"Yes, they are the cutest people." Mr. Xie smiled slightly, coughed twice, and his face turned a little red.
"Grandpa, are you okay?" Seeing this scene, the cold and beautiful woman hurriedly asked.
"It's okay, it's an old problem. If you listened to me and didn't run around, I wouldn't have to worry about it at my age." Old Xie gave the cold and beautiful woman a displeased look.
"Grandpa, I'm not running around, I'm doing archaeological research." The cold and beautiful woman said speechlessly.
"For archaeological research, are these places allowed for you to go?" Mr. Xie said unhappily.
Just thinking about the ruins in the canyon made him shudder. Even a powerful cultivator like Mu Ying found it difficult to enter. How dangerous must it be in there
The fully armed team actually lost eight people. These eight people were the elite in the army. How could ordinary people go there
"Okay, okay, at worst I can just ask you next time." The cold and beautiful woman said speechlessly.
"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Mr. Yang." Mr. Xie said with a wry smile.
"Mr. Xie, you're joking." Yang Qi said quickly.
"This girl is a worry, and her brother is also a troublemaker. But fortunately, although they are naughty, they know their limits." Old Xie smiled. Although he said this, everyone could still feel the relief in his words.
"Senior, what exactly are those relics?" Mu Ying asked from the side.
After all, he was a Hua Jin warrior, so he was naturally very curious about the place that even he could not enter. Before, when they were in a hurry to rescue Mu Yan and her group, he did not ask many questions. Now that Mu Yan and her group had returned safely, he naturally did not suppress his curiosity.
"That was the mountain gate of an ancient sect from more than a thousand years ago, but this sect was destroyed a thousand years ago." Yang Qi said.
"An ancient sect from over a thousand years ago?" Mu Ying took a deep breath. The sect that was destroyed over a thousand years ago left behind methods that even a martial artist like him, who had only Hua Jin, could not understand. One could imagine how powerful that sect was when it was at its peak.
“This sect is extremely powerful. If it were at its peak, even if there were three or five of me, we wouldn't be a match for their top fighters.” Yang Qi sighed. Although the Blood Demon Sect only had three martial artists, once the corpse puppets deep underground were activated, it would be difficult for martial artists to resist. They easily killed six people in the Fetal Breathing Realm.
“Even after a thousand years, the means they left behind are still very terrifying. There was a creature among them that was as powerful as me. I had to fight a great battle before I was lucky enough to kill it.” Yang Qi sighed.
Hearing this, Mu Ying couldn't help but take a breath. He knew how strong Yang Qi was before. He was at the fourth level of fetal breathing. With such strength, he had to fight hard to kill the enemy. Not to mention that he couldn't enter the ruins, even if he did, he would be sending himself to death!
"Those monsters are indeed scary. Even modern thermal weapons can't even break their skin. They are just like the zombies in the legend." The cold and beautiful woman said with some fear.
The belief in ghosts and gods has existed in China since ancient times, but with the development of modern technology, no one believes in them anymore. If she saw with her own eyes a corpse that could move and was as powerful as a god, she would not believe in the existence of zombies.
"You should be thankful that you are still alive. Let's see if you dare to go to those dangerous places in the future." Old Xie glanced at the cold and beautiful woman and said coldly.
"Grandpa, don't worry. The monsters in the ruins have been killed by Yang Qi. There is no danger inside." The cold and beautiful woman said hurriedly.
"It won't work even if there is no danger." Upon hearing this, Mr. Xie shook his head.
Mr. Xie's personality is somewhat similar to that of the cold and beautiful woman. They both stick to their word. Once Mr. Xie opens his mouth, the cold and beautiful woman can only agree honestly. (To be continued)
