The Tale Never Ends

Chapter 205: Trapped in an ancient tomb

Views:

I stood blankly in the dark tomb passage, and a sense of helplessness suddenly arose in my heart. I didn’t know when my nose started to feel sore. This was the first time in my adult life that I had the urge to cry. It was also the first time in my life that I had such a strong sense of loneliness. I was in the dark tomb passage and felt at a loss.

I rubbed my sour nose, forced myself to calm down, and thought about how to get out of this ancient tomb on my own. Suddenly I thought, after just coming out of the main tomb of the palace, I followed my father into the tomb on the far left, and then came to this treasure room. In other words, if I go back the same way, it will take me so long to reach the main tomb chamber. Then take the second road, or even the third road, there is always an exit.

Having made up my mind, I turned around and ran behind me without stopping.

However, I didn’t expect that I underestimated the four words “no return”! Just as I was running back, there were three more forks in the road! In other words, the way out of the treasure room is also one of these three!

Suddenly, a sense of loss hit my head, and I felt dizzy instantly! I can't count on my father's help here, and without Chong Xi and Lin Feng, there's no way I can get out of here on my own! I smiled bitterly and chose a random path to walk in. At this time, I was completely discouraged. I knew that I might have to stay here forever, and walking in the tomb passage was aimless.

I don’t know how long I walked here, but I passed many tombs, but they were all places I had never been to. The guiding bees in front of me were flying around, flying aimlessly and indiscriminately, unable to find a way out. I once again saw a bright tomb in the distance. I walked in that direction almost mechanically, without any hope in my heart.

After I walked into the tomb, I found that the tomb was the same as the one when I first entered. It was filled with black and gray decaying human bones. However, this was not the same tomb when I entered because that place was not at all the same. All the bones in the tomb were burned by Dad. With a helpless smile, I could only continue walking towards the dark tomb passage on the opposite side.

However, at this moment, I suddenly felt a shock under my feet! I subconsciously bent down, but before I could make any other move, I heard a "crash" above my head, and then several pieces of gravel fell. I was startled and looked up. Only then did he see that the dome above his head was cracking and collapsing at a speed visible to the naked eye. A huge hole collapsed in just an instant! A ray of light came out of the mouth! My heart suddenly lit up! I thought it was God helping me, this ancient tomb actually collapsed!

Not daring to hesitate, he jumped up to the top of the tomb. Only then did he see that the top of the tomb was still collapsing and the debris was falling. The torn button was just big enough for me to fly out of, so I rushed out without any hesitation. In the blink of an eye, he had flown out of the ancient tomb and into the air.

After flying out of the ancient tomb, I couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, thinking that it was so dangerous!

Looking around, I was surprised to find my father floating in the air in the distance, with a long sword as wide as a door board under his feet, and one hand making a sword swing. I understood immediately. It turned out that my father left the ancient tomb and came back again. He knocked down the entire mountain with his sword and collapsed the ancient tomb to avoid future troubles! Only then by some combination of circumstances did I get released from it!

I took a long breath and thought to myself, what the hell is this? It seems that I will really study the art of shrinking and walking in the future, otherwise I may not be so lucky if this happens again in the future.

When I looked up, I realized that I was no longer where I was, and I didn't even know when I left. I was not in the air at this time, but in a busy city. I shook my head and said to myself, no matter what, since I came here to pursue the answer, I can't be scared away by these difficulties, not to mention that I don't know how to go back!

Looking around, there are no traces left by the war here. I know that the progress of time here is not uniform for me, and there are times when it fast forwards. Judging from the hairstyle and clothing of these people, it should be the Qing Dynasty at this time. I just didn’t know where this place was yet, so I started walking around on the streets here, hoping to find out the reason why I was sent to this busy place.

As I expected, not far away I saw a sparkling river in the distance, with many boats on it. There were many people gathered around the ferry on the river bank, and they didn't know what they were doing on the three floors inside and outside. When I saw this scene, I immediately thought of a scene that both Lin Zhao and my godmother had told me, that was the scene where my godmother's sister died! Thinking of this, I couldn't help but jump up and fly directly over the group of people, wanting to see if what everyone was watching was what I wanted to see.

Where the crowd was watching, a pretty but pale beauty was holding a dagger as if to stab her in the chest! I was shocked and delighted at the same time. Sure enough, I saw this scene! But I don’t know what kind of wind I was feeling at this time, thinking that my godmother was very sad for her sister’s death, I unexpectedly jumped in and reached out to grab the beautiful woman’s wrist that was holding the dagger! For a moment, the godmother's sister was stunned, but when she opened her eyes, she couldn't see anyone at all, but she couldn't move her hands. She looked very confused, shook her hand, and found that it seemed to be held by someone. In desperation, she had no choice but to hand the dagger to her other hand and make another move to stab him.

I snapped my hand quickly, and grabbed the hand holding the dagger with my other hand. At the same time, I grabbed her two arms and pressed them down forcefully! The godmother didn’t know what determination she had made, but she started struggling like an endless struggle! She was already bursting with tears, and now she burst into tears. Her cry caused everyone onlookers to point and point. I didn't care what the onlookers said, so I raised my hand and snatched the dagger from her hand.

Just when I was breathing a sigh of relief, suddenly a "whoosh" sound came from somewhere in the crowd. I was startled by this sound! Looking down, the godmother's sister also stared at the dagger stuck in her chest with wide eyes. Blood gurgled out from where the dagger was embedded in her chest. I quickly raised my head and looked in the direction where the dagger was flying, but there was no one suspicious in the crowd. The time between when I pressed her hand and when I ejaculated was very short. Apparently the crowd hadn't reacted yet!

At this moment, the body of my godmother who was lying on the ground suddenly moved, and I lowered my head subconsciously. I saw the corpse lying on the deck moving in an extremely unnatural way in the direction where the dagger flew. Before I could understand what was going on, I saw the dagger being pulled out of the corpse with a "snap". He came out and flew towards the back of the crowd! My heart is screaming! It seemed that the person who did this was also skilled in sword control, and he used this spell to take back the sword!

I quickly jumped up and flew into the air, wanting to see where the owner of the knife was. But when I flew up, I only saw the back of a man receiving a knife on a small boat in the distance. Just as he was about to catch up, he suddenly felt a strange feeling coming from under his feet. Looking down, I saw a cloud of blue smoke coming out of the place where the chest of the godmother's body was pierced by the knife! That was none other than her soul!

The soul quickly rose into the air, and I immediately discovered something was wrong. Generally, the soul of a dead person leaving the body will be in a state of confusion, without any clear thoughts. But her soul's eyes were firm, as if she was awake!

I saw this soul floating away along the river bank without hesitation. I was surprised and quickly chased after it, wanting to see where the soul was going.

The soul ran a long distance until it reached a house. I quickly followed in and saw a white gauze hanging at the door of the house, obviously a funeral was being held. When I saw this house, I suddenly got goosebumps! An extremely bad premonition came to mind, and he flew into the house without hesitation.

At this time, I saw a group of people wearing mourning clothes kneeling in the yard, crying and shouting, and a coffin was parked in the lobby. There is an offering table placed on the head of the coffin, and on top of that offering table there are tribute incense burners and memorial tablets. I took a closer look, and it was indeed written on the tablet that it was "the place where the big ribbon is shown on the side of the exam"!
