Tomb Robber: I, Chen Yulou, am dedicated to cultivating immortality!

Chapter 103 The invisible pull across the Worm Valley

That night.

The group of people received a very grand reception in Malu Village.

In the village, a bonfire was lit.

Men, women, old and young sang and danced around the torches.

and……

Chen Yulou, who had almost never been drunk, felt powerless for the first time in such a long time.

More than two hundred people were toasting one after another.

No matter how massive it is, it still can’t be held.

But, I have to say, wine is really the fastest way to get closer.

In the next few days, the mountain people who were still wary of them have completely accepted their existence.

Especially the young men in Uro's hunting team.

They even got into a fight with Kunlun, Lao Yangren, Zhang Yunqiao and others.

There is even Yuan Hong among them.

It was going crazy on the boat.

Unexpectedly, when I arrived at Maluzhai, I felt like I had returned home. The mountain people were extremely friendly to me.

Chen Yulou didn't understand it at first.

After that, I found an opportunity to ask Uro before I understood.

It turns out that the Wa people call themselves Buraoke, which means cave people. It is said that the ancestors of the Wa people originally lived in the gourd cave and walked out of the cave under the guidance of an ape.

Since then it has taken root in the mountains and forests.

Because of this.

Only then will they have a natural affinity for apes.

And he subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

He just asked Yuan Hong not to speak in front of others.

Otherwise, given the character of the Wa people in Maluzhai, they would definitely regard it as the incarnation of ghosts and gods.

I won’t want to leave until then.

I'm afraid it will be difficult.

Yuan Hong, who was originally indifferent, how could he dare not listen to this?

Now, it has acquired the practice method of Xuan Dao Conquering Qi and Building the Foundation, and with the guidance of Chen Yulou, its realm has improved rapidly.

Compared with the days in Baiyuan Cave, I don't know how much better it was.

It doesn't want to stay in the mountains anymore even if it kills it.

Worried that I will accidentally reveal my secret.

Yuan Hong simply stayed in seclusion.

I plan to break through the Qi refining barrier in one go before entering the mountain.

Not only it, but the others also felt the pressure and took advantage of the opportunity to rest and secretly improve their strength.

Among them, Hua Ling finally defeated Yuan Hong by half a step, successfully drawing Qi into his body and looking inside at Xi Yi.

After becoming the Partridge Whistle, he was the second person to master the foundation-building skill.

The red girl followed closely behind.

While on the road, she was able to enter samadhi within ten breaths.

Now there is only one chance.

The old foreigner remained silent and gradually reached the threshold.

As always, Partridge Whistle stayed behind closed doors all day and spent almost all of his time practicing Qi.

In Chenjiazhuang, receiving guidance from Chen Yulou was like lighting a bright lamp in the dark night.

now.

He is already on the verge of reaching Yangqi Pass.

Just pierce the window paper and you can go one step further.

Compared to them, Chen Yulou seemed to be the most comfortable one who practiced hard day and night.

It’s not that he and Xigu went into the mountains to collect herbs.

Just following Uro and others, wandering around the village.

But no one could have imagined that he was the fastest improving.

The miracle that Red Girl and Partridge Whistle were looking for seemed to be within easy reach for him.

That night at Long Mo Ye.

The moment when the demon Basi Gu Guzhao attracted the prying eyes of the big ghost.

That invisible and strange sense of oppression was like a knife, forcibly breaking through the bottleneck where he had been stagnant for a long time.

Now, he has developed his spiritual consciousness.

In the past few days, the reason why I have been traveling to and from Zhelong Mountain is naturally not really just to relax.

One is for stepping on the plate.

As a practitioner of inverted fighting, you must know the surroundings of the ancient tombs thoroughly before entering into a fight.

The human skin map in his hand was, after all, an ancient artifact from more than two thousand years ago.

The terrain has changed greatly due to the vicissitudes of life.

Only by measuring and comparing with your eyes can you know what you are doing.

The other one was also to test a guess in his mind.

Why are you so concerned about the fourth step of Qi Refining Pass?

It's because Worm Valley is different from other places.

Once inside, the magnetic field is chaotic and the geomantic omen cannot be deduced using common sense.

Don't say it's him.

Even if Zhang Sanlianzi comes to life again.

In Insect Valley, it is impossible to accurately find the dragon's acupoints with the help of the sixteen-character Yin-Yang Feng Shui secret technique.

Feng shui mausoleum and restraint are all useless.

In this case, there is only one way to identify the direction.

That is with the help of night eyes and spiritual consciousness.

He has been thinking about it for the past few days, integrating his spiritual consciousness into Night Eye, trying to see if he can break through the magnetic field formation in Zhelong Mountain.

to be frank.

The result was completely beyond his expectation.

At least the miasma near the stockade can no longer affect him.

As for the poisonous miasma that persists all year round in the Insect Valley, he has not tried it yet. He thinks that with the precious medicine of Wa Village, it should not be a problem.

In a blink of an eye.

On the fifth day.

Xigu, who entered Longmoye's bamboo house after collecting the medicine, finally appeared again.

Moba is also a witch doctor.

It's just that in Malu Village, he is called a herbal medicine doctor.

Those mountain herbs, in his hands, have turned into pills called 'Cao Gu'.

It smelled like an indescribable pungent smell.

According to him, after swallowing Caogu, you can resist the invasion of poisonous miasma, but the effect only lasts about half an hour.

In other words, they need to cross the Bug Valley and enter the valley within the specified time, otherwise even if the ghost Meji comes, they will not be able to save them.

People in their sixties and seventies.

In order to rush out this batch of grass for them in the shortest possible time.

Almost without sleep for several days.

Chen Yulou felt really sorry and originally wanted to leave some money.

But Xigu refused.

In the end, I just made a request.

He said that it has been rumored for generations in Maluzhai that in the sinkhole deep in the Worm Valley, there is an 'immortal grass' that can bring the dead back to life.

If they get a chance to get in.

I hope Chen Yulou can collect a few plants for the village.

Although Maluzhai is relatively large among the surrounding villages.

But there is a blood feud between the Wa and Dai people.

Especially the nearest Mengla Village.

The two villages have been fighting each other all year round.

Those young people in Wuluo have to hunt and fight at the same time. It is inevitable that they will accidentally get killed.

And in the ancient rumors of Maluzhai.

As long as the head is not taken off by the opponent.

If you swallow the Immortal Grass, you will be able to turn danger into peace and be resurrected from the dead.

Although Chen Yulou couldn't believe what he said.

There really needs to be an herb that can bring the dead back to life.

At least it's at the elixir level.

Isn't there a big demon guarding it?

How can ordinary people have the right to spy!

But Xigu was so steadfast in his words that he couldn't say much. After carefully writing down the appearance of the elixir, he nodded and agreed.

Because Xigu said that money was of no use to them.

Chen Yulou specially mobilized those thieves to help the mountain people improve farm tools, iron smelting, and bows and arrows by taking advantage of Changsheng Mountain's achievements in equipment.

We even found a few guys who knew how to farm.

Teach them step by step how to grow crops.

There is no need to rely on the mountains and eat the mountains, or slash and burn farming as before.

For those mountain people, these will undoubtedly bring them unimaginable benefits.

Early the next morning.

The entrance to the village.

Xigu, Toge, as well as the mountain people who came after hearing the news, almost all men, women and children came to see them off.

Although they spent little time together, they had a good rapport with each other.

"You are after Grandpa."

"Logically speaking, no matter what, I should send you to Worm Valley."

"It's just...as a demon of Maluzhai, everything I have is given by ghosts and gods. I really can't follow you to the place abandoned by the gods." Xigu explained with a guilty look.

"Qiuda is serious."

"You have done enough, Chen is grateful."

Not to mention that he asked Uro and others to escort him.

The mere fact that Caogu can break the poisonous miasma is already a priceless treasure to them.

Besides, Xi Gudu is already in his late seventies, his body is weak, and his legs and feet are inconvenient. During this time, so many of them are spending the night in the village.

How could Chen Yulou still be greedy?

"Dana, I wish you good luck, the big ghost will definitely protect you and return safely!"

"Thank you Qiuda!"

Chen Yulou clasped his fists and thanked Xigu and Toge one by one.

Zhelong Mountain is surrounded by dense forests, making it impossible for horses to pass through. These days, the horses have to be temporarily fostered in Malu Village.

After saying goodbye.

Without any further delay, the mighty team headed straight for the Xuefeng under the leadership of Wuluo.

Through these few days of observation.

Chen Yulou calculated that the village was about ten miles away from Insect Valley.

But walking across mountains and ridges cannot be explained by common sense.

Moreover, we will probably pass through two villages along the way.

One of them is Mengla Village, which has a deadly feud with Maluzhai.

In order not to delay the trip.

They planned to take a detour.

Therefore, after a seemingly short journey of more than ten miles, it took a full six or seven hours to finally arrive outside the Worm Valley.

The group was left to rest on the spot and replenish food and water sources.

Chen Yulou, Partridge Shao, and Kunlun followed Wuluo all the way up a short slope.

The closer you get to the snow-capped mountains.

The temperature is lower.

They were even able to see scattered snow along the way.

Uro said it was leftover from the avalanche.

There is a huge temperature difference between day and night in the mountains, and the ancient trees in the primitive jungle are tightly closed, so sunlight cannot reach every place.

Therefore, those ice and snow can often exist for a long time before gradually melting.

but……

At this moment, a group of people climbed over the hillside.

What they saw was a scene they would never forget.

I saw that between the snow-capped mountains and the dense forest, there was the same low valley with not much vegetation, crossing from the bottom of the mountain.

Just be that.

Nor would they be so amazed.

In mid-air above the valley.

Shrouded in a thick layer of white mist.

Just like the clouds in the sky, they all fell here, and it was so dense that even what was hidden behind the valley could not be seen clearly.

"This is Worm Valley!"

"In our Wa village, it is also called the Demon Valley...a place controlled by the devil."

Wu Luo's face was solemn and he explained in a deep voice.

Although he has been here many times.

But every time I see this valley shrouded in clouds and mist, I still feel shocked.

In the mythology of the Wa people, Muyiji is the god who created everything, God Mowei is the incarnation of the ancestors of the Wa people, and the great ghost Meiji is the mountain god who protects the village.

But no matter Mu Yiji, Mo Weishen or the big ghost.

I was reminded more than once.

Let the people in the village not go into the depths of the Worm Valley, where the devils live and feed on human souls.

Once you enter it, you can only become a temptation for the devil and will no longer be protected by ghosts and gods.

"Is this a poisonous miasma?!"

Chen Yulou seemed not to have heard what he said.

He just stared blankly at the thick white fog, his face full of shock.

He finally understood.

Why in the original book, even the experienced leader of Xieling would fail.

Such a thick poisonous miasma.

Let alone a human being, even an elephant would probably not be able to survive for a minute.

"Wuluo, have these white miasma always existed? Will they never disappear?"

The red girl looked amazed.

After being lost for a while, he subconsciously asked Uro.

"It will disappear, but..."

Wu Luo has learned some simple Chinese, but most of the time he still speaks it with dialect.

"But what?"

At this moment, several people had withdrawn their gazes and stared at him.

"However, you came at the wrong time."

"These poisonous miasmas will only dissipate for a short period of time during the extremely cold days of winter..."

Extremely cold winter?

Capture this keyword.

Chen Yulou's heart moved and he reacted instantly.

The poisonous miasma in the Worm Valley actually does not exist naturally.

Instead, that old boy Xian Wang used the death energy of countless wronged souls to continuously release it through the body of Huo's undead insect.

Only in this way can it last for thousands of years and last all year round.

Huo's undead bug has amazing vitality and almost no shortcomings.

And when it is extremely cold, it happens to be when it falls into a deep sleep, and the fog will naturally dissipate.

"Do you really want to go?"

Seeing that several people were deep in thought but showed no intention of retreating despite the difficulties, Uluo couldn't help but say.

In fact, he had wanted to ask this question for a long time.

"of course."

"We're all here, is there any reason to return empty-handed?"

Chen Yulou shrugged his shoulders and glanced at the thoughtful Partridge Whistle beside him.

"Brother Dao, what do you think?"

Partridge Whistle was obviously in a daze and didn't even hear what he said. He just nodded subconsciously and quickly withdrew his gaze.

So much so that Wu Luo, Kunlun and Miss Hong didn't notice the strange look in his eyes.

At this moment, his heart was like a raging river.

do not know why.

The moment approaching Worm Valley.

He suddenly had an indescribable feeling.

It was as if...there was something pulling him.

But when Partridge Whistle went to investigate carefully, that feeling disappeared instantly.

"Then...do you want me to protect you?"

Seeing this, Uro gritted his teeth, with a trace of determination in his eyes.

Even the clan leader and Moba had warned them since childhood not to enter the Worm Valley at any time.

But right now, we can’t abandon them!

"Uro, thank you for your kindness."

"But the people in the village are still waiting for you to return."

"Go back. When we are finished here, we will go to Malu Village to find you."

Hearing his words, Chen Yulou and others were moved.

This is not about bravery, but a taboo passed down from ancient times in the clan.

It is enough for him to have this heart.

Chen Yulou patted his shoulder and shook his head with a smile.

"But……"

"Nothing to worry about."

Seeing that he was about to open his mouth, Chen Yulou interrupted him directly.

Then he said hello to the back.

The thieves who had rested took out the grass and swallowed it in one gulp without hesitation. They tied up their black cloth masks, carried their equipment on their backs, and strode over the hillside.

"Let's go back."

When the team went up the mountain, Chen Yulou and others did not waste any time and swallowed Caogu one after another.

Waved goodbye to Uro and his group.

Rushing towards the depths of the Worm Valley.

Less than two miles away.

But it seems like a century has passed.

Everyone, including Chen Yulou, had serious expressions on their faces covered by black cloth.

The closer.

The pungent and unpleasant poisonous smell became stronger and stronger.

only……

When entering the Bug Valley, the white mist floats over.

However, a group of people found that their bodies felt cool and there was no horrific scene of skin ulceration.
