Chapter 2 Fatty Wang: Lao Hu, are you afraid of Gu Bai?
"no……"

"Old Hu, who exactly is this Gu Bai? You seem..." Fatty Wang gave Hu Bayi a strange look and said, "You seem quite afraid of him?"

Hu Bayi twitched the corner of his mouth and nodded affirmatively.

"You're right. I am a little afraid of him."

He looked around cautiously and whispered, "Just now, Peacock revealed some of Gu Bai's identity to me."

Seeing Hu Bayi's cautious look, Fatty Wang and Shirley Yang looked at each other in confusion.

Hu Bayi is not a cowardly person and has always been brave, but he is so cautious about Gu Bai.

"What is Gu Bai's identity?" Shirley Yang couldn't help but ask.

"Gu Master."

"What? Gu Master?!"

Shirley Yang screamed and then covered her mouth.

However, she quickly calmed down and said excitedly.

"If the Gu Master really acts as our guide, we will definitely be able to enter the Worm Valley smoothly, and even finding the Tomb of King Xian will not be a problem!"

Fatty Wang was still in a daze, not understanding what they were so excited about.

He was just about to ask what was going on when Hu Bayi said.

"Fatty, don't worry about anything else. You just need to know that the guide we hired is very capable."

"When we meet, please be polite and don't joke around, otherwise we won't be able to save you."

Fatty Wang didn't take it to heart, but seeing that Hu Bayi was so serious, he nodded and agreed.

Early the next morning.

Hu Bayi and the other two followed Peacock to the entrance of the cave.

Gu Bai was seen sitting cross-legged on a stone near the cave entrance. Strangely, he was surrounded by dozens of brightly colored butterflies.

Sensing the arrival of Peacock and his companions, Gu Bai slowly opened his eyes.

When Hu Bayi first saw him closing his eyes, he thought it was normal.

But as soon as he opened his eyes, several people felt that Gu Bai's aura changed drastically.

Originally, Gu Bai looked calm and indifferent, as if he was not interested in competing with the world.

But at this time, Gu Bai had sharp eyes, extraordinary aura, and was mysterious and unpredictable.

This change made Hu Bayi, Fatty Wang and Shirley Yang admire in their hearts.

'This person is not simple.'

Several people put their things on the bamboo raft, and Shirley Yang even reached into the water with a bamboo pole to see how deep the water in the cave was.

Seeing that the water was deep enough to bear the weight of several people on the bamboo raft, she called Hu Bayi and Wang Fatty, and the two of them pulled the bamboo raft to the cave.

When they all entered the cave, there was thunder outside.

"It's raining." Gu Bai looked at the world outside the cave.

It was sunny just now, but suddenly there was lightning, thunder and heavy rain.

It's too weird.

Fatty Wang put the bamboo raft on the water and stood up.

"Luckily we got in quickly, otherwise we would have been soaked to the skin."

Gu Bai glanced at Fatty Wang and shook his head: "This is not a good thing."

"How do you say this?"

Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang also approached Gu Bai.

Gu Bai pointed at the river and said.

"There are countless underground rivers in the cave. It has been raining these days and the river water has risen. If we follow the water, I don't know where the exit will be."

“And many of the rivers here are dangerous.”

Hu Bayi, Shirley Yang and Fatty Wang looked at each other with caution in their eyes.

The three of them gathered together, and Hu Bayi whispered.

"This Zhalong Mountain is considered to be the outer perimeter of King Xian's tomb, and there may be witchcraft."

"If we encounter something like magic, we must be careful."

Fatty Wang and Shirley Yang also nodded solemnly.

Fatty Wang complained: "What a horrible weather! Why is it raining so much?"

Shirley Yang comforted him, "No matter what, we can cross Zhalong Mountain by water, which is already very good."

The three of them discussed for a while and then looked at Gu Bai.

At this time, Gu Bai had already boarded the bamboo raft.

Dozens of large, colorful butterflies still surrounded him.

They didn't notice it from outside before, but now they see the scene clearly, and the three of them are shocked.

It was very dark in the cave, with only some light coming through the entrance, but nothing could be seen clearly inside the cave.

But Gu Bai's whole body was emitting light.

The colorful butterflies around him looked like giant fireflies, their wings glowing faintly.

The flickering light made the cave dim and bright, making it look a little dreamy.

"Oh my god...is this a butterfly or a firefly?" Fatty Wang muttered.

After a while, he couldn't help his curiosity and spoke loudly.

"Brother Gu Bai, why does your butterfly glow like a firefly? It's different from the butterflies I usually see!"

"I've never seen a glowing butterfly before!"

Gu Bai looked at Fatty Wang, chuckled, and said lightly.

"I just raised these little creatures to kill time when I was bored. Don't worry, they won't attack anyone."

After listening to Gu Bai's words, Shirley Yang said to the two of them in a low voice.

"I think this must be the Gu he raised."

"It seems that the guide we hired, Gu, is not an ordinary person."

Hu Bayi also nodded affirmatively, this move was absolutely the right one.

At this time, Gu Bai asked the three people.

"Three bosses, can we set off now?"

Hu Bayi and his companions boarded the bamboo raft one after another.

……

The bamboo raft slowly moved forward along the current.

Gu Bai stood at the front of the bamboo raft.

Hu Bayi and the other two were huddled in the middle.

Gu Bai glanced around and said, "It's all frozen. It seems that there is a huge temperature difference between inside and outside the cave."

Then, he looked at the bamboo raft under his feet and warned: "Stand still, the waterway is about to change."

Before Hu Bayi and the other two could react, they felt the bamboo raft moving at a much faster speed.

After a stagger, the bamboo raft finally slowly stabilized.

At this time, the river channel in the cave became wider, and several streams merged into it. Under the illumination of the fluorescent light, Gu Bai and his companions gradually saw the situation around them clearly.

The stone walls on both sides had turned into rows of lava terraces.

Those terraces are covered with one layer upon another, like waves, and are very magnificent.

In front of the river, there was a huge vermilion stone bead hanging upside down just above the stone wall.

Below the stone bead, stands a huge beast head, and water is pouring into the beast's mouth.

This giant beast looked like a tiger or a lion. It opened its bloody mouth and seemed to be roaring towards the sky. It had a row of ferocious teeth around it, as if it was going to swallow the stone bead above.

Looking at the bottomless and extremely dark beast's mouth, Hu Bayi and the other two couldn't help but tremble in their hearts, and their breathing began to become heavy.

"Oh no, we really entered another waterway..."

Hu Bayi said with uneasiness.

Everything they saw was completely different from what they knew.

"My goodness, why are there only stone people?"

Fatty Wang turned on the powerful flashlight and pointed it at the mouth of the giant beast.

There were countless stone figurines hanging above.

Seeing these lifelike stone figurines, they inexplicably felt a sense of uneasiness in their hearts.

"interesting."

Seeing the stone figurine, Gu Bai's eyes lit up.

He gently patted the somewhat disobedient green snake on his shoulder, signaling it to be quiet.

Fatty Wang on the side couldn't help but exclaimed when he saw this:

"Brother Gu Bai, what is ahead? Why are you so happy?"

Hu Bayi also asked curiously: "Little Brother Gu Bai, do you know what these stone figurines are?"

Gu Bai glanced at them and said, "This is a terracotta warrior."

"These figurines are filled with insect eggs. Once these insect eggs break through the stone and come into contact with water and air, they will immediately wake up from their slumber."

Hu Bayi and the other two looked at each other.

This was an accident, did I find the right place?

Hu Bayi turned on the flashlight and looked around.

These stone figurines all have their hands behind their backs, as if they were tied up.
The surface is gray-brown, the facial features are blurred, and it is impossible to see the specific face, let alone tell whether it is a man or a woman.

"This doesn't look like a terracotta warrior from the Qin and Han dynasties!"

"Most of the stone figurines from the Qin and Han dynasties were soldiers and performers, but these are none of them."

Shirley Yang frowned.

Fatty Wang pouted and said:
"Who cares about the figurines? This place is scary!"

"All of these human figurines are hung here, just like hanged ghosts. Even I, Fatty, feel creepy!"

The appearance of these stone figurines here is creepy enough, and when Gu Bai said that they are ghost figurines, it becomes even more terrifying.

King Xian's magic skills are no exaggeration!
