Tomb raiding: It all started with the kidnapping of Yin Xinyue

The bandits from the Unloading Ridge gang scattered in response.

They carefully cleared away the coffins and bodies one by one, searching for any suspicious traces.

Seeing this, Li Xiaohu helplessly pointed to the floor of the well and reminded him:

Look at your feet.

Chen Yulou and the others were reminded by Li Xiaohu.

He quickly shifted his attention to the floor.

The bandits of the Unloading Ridge gang began cleaning up the corpses, their oil, and various other miscellaneous items on the ground.

period.

Li Xiaohu asked Yin Xinyue curiously, "How did you discover the entrance?"

Yin Xinyue replied, "After you jumped off the bridge, a lot of insects crawled back up."

“Red Girl and I were almost overwhelmed by the swarm of insects, but thankfully we had the sachet you gave us, which kept the insects away from us.”

As she spoke, she took out a sachet and said with a grin, "Speaking of which, this sachet of yours is really useful!"

Why not make a few at the beginning?

Li Xiaohu chuckled and replied, "The materials used to make it are too precious."

"I found a thunder vine by chance on the mountaintop and in the mountain stream, just enough to make a few of these."

Then he asked, "And then what happened?"

Yin Xinyue nodded with an "Oh~", and then continued, "Later, we were forced into the Boundless Immortal Palace by the swarm of insects."

"The swarm of insects suddenly dispersed again for some unknown reason."

"During a break, someone noticed strange noises coming from the main hall. Finally, following the sound, they found the entrance to the elixir well."

Finally, he added, "It was Kunlun Moller who opened that big lid."

Li Xiaohu laughed and said, "I see."

"Perhaps it was because the six-winged centipede died that those poisonous insects and mirages were suddenly leaderless and scattered."

Speaking of the six-winged centipede.

Yin Xinyue asked curiously, "How did you manage to kill such a powerful centipede?"

Why has it become so small again?

Li Xiaohu was about to answer.

Suddenly, a terrified scream came from the side!

"Ahhh!"

Li Xiaohu quickly got up and looked over.

One of the Xieling brothers was slumped on the ground, pointing at the ground in front of him, stammering, but unable to explain himself clearly.

When I got closer, I took a look.

On the ground in front of him, there were two human heads!

The heads were all disheveled, revealing two dark eye sockets, mouths agape, and a look of utter terror!

Two lonely human heads.

It looks just like a vengeful ghost haunting the human world!

"No need to panic," Chen Yulou said, stepping forward to clean the dust off the sculptures with his foot. "They're just two reliefs."

Luo Laowai stood to the side and muttered, "Damn it."

"This place that refines Yin pills, besides using corpses to refine pills, does it also use ghosts to refine pills?"

Partridge Whistle shook his head and said, "The ancients did indeed use the method of refining Yin Elixir from corpses, but there has never been a precedent of using ghosts to refine Yin Elixir."

Luo Laowai pursed his lips and muttered to himself.

The sight of "two heads" clearly had a significant impact on him.

Standing atop the human head relief, Chen Yulou speculated, "There are only two human head reliefs here, so they must have a special meaning."

He then stomped hard on the floor.

"Dong dong!"

A muffled sound of empty pay came from below!

His eyes lit up immediately, and he exclaimed, "There's space down there!"

Then, he happily addressed the crowd:

"From all perspectives, Ping Mountain is indeed a palace used by the emperor of the previous dynasty to refine elixirs."

"But so far we have only discovered the Pill Palace and Pill Well, not the treasure pavilion where the pills are stored!"

Pointing to the ground beneath his feet, he said excitedly:

"It's very likely down there!"

Then he vacated the space and gave instructions to Kunlun Mole.

"Kunlun, come!"

"Aba aba." Kunlun Mole stretched his arms and slowly stepped forward.

Then he grabbed a head with each hand and pulled hard in anger!

"what!!!"

The human head floor was slowly lifted up by the immense force of Kunlun!

Then it split in the middle, revealing a large, dark hole.

The floorboards had just been opened.

"call!"

A gust of cold wind howled and blew through the hole onto everyone.

The cold wind was biting, causing everyone present to shiver and rub their exposed skin.

Chen Yulou frowned.

He ordered someone to hold a torch and probe inside.

When he saw the scene below clearly, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and exclaim in surprise, "Eh!"

He never expected that he would be in this dark cave.

A place where there is no light and no sunshine.

There was actually a tall and thick osmanthus tree growing there!

The osmanthus tree grows extremely lushly, with abundant branches and leaves, and its trunk and canopy block out the sun, stretching as far as the eye can see!

Luo Laowai asked in confusion, "How could a cassia tree grow in this dark place where the sun never shines?"

Chen Yulou and Partridge Whistle exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with doubt.

Clearly, they couldn't make up their minds.

Li Xiaohu stepped forward and explained, "This osmanthus tree must have grown by absorbing nutrients from the corpses in the elixir well."

"Hiss..." Partridge Whistle frowned and said, "No wonder a cold wind kept blowing as soon as this door was opened!"

"Let's go down and take a look first." Chen Yulou unconsciously shrank his neck and ordered his men, "Set up the centipede and hang it on the mountainside!"

The brothers of Xieling hurriedly set up the centipede-shaped ladder at the cave entrance.

Then they climbed down in an orderly fashion, using large machetes to split open the branches and trunks of the osmanthus trees blocking their way.

Chen Yulou saw that the cleaning was almost done.

He then said to Li Xiaohu and Partridge Whistle, "I, Chen, will go ahead first."

With that, he turned around and climbed down the centipede-shaped mountain ladder.

Who knows.

Just as I had firmly planted my feet on the ladder, a terrified scream suddenly came from below!

"what!!!"

Then came another loud "thump!"

Asking for flowers

Chen Yulou was so frightened that he almost lost his footing, and quickly grabbed the ladder to look down.

They found a brother who had fallen off the ladder for some unknown reason, and he landed heavily on the ground, unresponsive.
