Chapter 53: Luo Bu's Double Fish Jade Pendant

  "You, your eyes." Stone Fish said with some hesitation.

  "Stone fish, hand over the key to us!" Ah Mei suddenly interrupted.

  "Key? How did you know I had a key? Did Corpse King tell you?" Stone Fish suddenly reacted.

  "Yes." I simply said just one word.

  "Anyway, I've been here for a thousand years too, it's time to go." Stone Fish sighed.

  I'm having doubts now, we want it to hand over the key, but it says it's going out, how can this be reasonable!

  "Stone fish, are you going to follow us out?" I couldn't help but ask.

  "Aren't you looking for the key? I am." Shi Yu said in a low voice.

  "Are you the key?" I couldn't understand.

  "Do you know the Pisces Jade Pendant?" said Shi Yu.

  Double Fish Jade Pendant, this is a very familiar term, I seem to have seen it somewhere before. I tried hard to recall and finally remembered a book "Record of China's Paranormal Events" in the school library, on the first page, it clearly recorded the 1980 Xinjiang Lop Nur Double Fish Jade Pendant paranormal event, known as China's largest paranormal event. At that time, I was eager to find the "Resurrection from the Dead" paranormal event and ignored the content of this page.

  "I've vaguely heard that it's an artifact unearthed from Robo Lake." I replied briefly, because I wasn't very clear about it either.

  "I don't know if the artifact you mentioned has anything to do with me, but my true form is the yin fish of the Twin Fish Jade Pendant. I and the yang fish were originally a pair, collectively known as the Yin-Yang Twin Fish Jade Pendant. Later, we were separated by someone, and I was sent here, while its whereabouts are unknown. Now, I suspect that the unearthed artifact you just mentioned should be the yang fish."

  I was shocked, this guy turned out to be a jade pendant.

  "What does this have to do with the key?"

  "The key to the exit of the tomb is a jade pendant."

  "You wait for me to return to my true form." As soon as the words were spoken, the tomb chamber began to fade away bit by bit, and finally disappeared completely. We found ourselves standing in an empty space, with a jade pendant falling at my feet. The shape was like a fish and also like a key, curved and twisted, and it could be seen that it was somewhat damaged, only half of a complete jade pendant.

  I picked up the jade pendant at my feet and placed it in the palm of my hand. Suddenly, the fish mouth on the jade pendant moved.

  "If you can promise me to find Yang Yu and bring us together, I'll go out with you," said Yu Pei.

  "Brother, agree to him, he is not just a simple Jade Copper Stone Fish from the underworld, but the ancestor of the Jade Copper Stone Fish, extremely precious." Little sister whispered to me.

  "Alright, I'll take you out and help you find another sunfish." I replied.

  The twin fish jade pendant shook its tail and quietly stayed in hand, motionless, transforming into a real jade pendant.

  "Hey, I haven't even asked you, where is the exit?" I hastily shouted, but Yu Pei was still as dead as a doornail.

  What the hell is going on? Even the Corpse King is dead, these corpses don't even have spiritual intelligence, and the Double Fish Jade Pendant is ignoring me too. Where can I go to find an exit? I look utterly miserable.

  "Sister, let's go up and take a look."

  The younger sister nodded and followed up.

  In the third layer of the tomb, no exit was found, but a monk's body was discovered. The body had turned into a skeleton, except for the missing hand bones, all other parts were intact.

  I suddenly remembered the human bone I picked up in the tomb chamber above, which seemed to have fallen off the cliff when I left the tomb. I recalled some traditional Chinese characters engraved on it: "The monk who lit the lamp was a great ghost who died here, his body turned into oil for the lamp, his bones became the wick, and his skin became the shade." Could this be the remains of the monk who lit the lamp? A thousand years old corpse that hasn't decayed, truly a high-ranking monk!

  I thought that the monk might have left some treasure behind, as it's always portrayed in TV dramas, where a martial arts manual is found around the body of an enlightened monk. But instead of finding the manual, we ended up scattering the monk's skeleton all over the place.

  "Sorry, Master. If there's anything strange, it's not strange; if there's anything strange, it's not strange." I made a Buddhist salute in front of the scattered skeleton.

  The bow had just been performed, and a strange thing happened. The skeleton seemed to come alive, sat up again, and kept pointing at my back with its fingers.

  I quickly reacted and turned around to where the skeleton was pointing, which was indeed the stone wall behind me.

  A line of words suddenly appeared on the stone wall: "The Great Ghost will escape, stop it."

  According to what I know now, the monk was suppressing a great demon and died here. The great demon must have been suppressed somewhere and is about to escape. It has been sensed by the monk's corpse, let's go stop the great demon.

  "Master, can you tell me where the exit is first? I've been starving for a whole day." I said with some complaints to the skeleton.

  The skeleton pointed again at his back.

  "Five." This time, only one word appeared on the wall.

  Is "five" representing the fifth floor? We are currently on the third floor. The fifth floor is just two floors up from here.

  "Thank you, Master, for your guidance." I bowed again.

  With a thud, the skeleton scattered again and lost its vitality.

  "It wasn't me this time!" I quickly ran away.

  We skipped the fourth layer and came directly to the fifth layer tomb chamber.

  "Brother, I feel like there's danger." At this time, Ah Mei suddenly pulled me anxiously and said.

  "Sister, don't be afraid, I'll protect you." He said and immediately stood in front of Ah Mei.

  Sister nodded vigorously, but I still felt a sense of unease in her eyes.

  After entering the tomb, the corpse insect didn't dare to emit green light, and just wandered around the periphery, not daring to go in. The tomb was gloomy and chilly, with a piercing coldness that seemed to penetrate my skin. I looked around the tomb and saw dark corners that seemed to have a pair of eyes staring at me. I maintained high concentration, step by step approaching the corner, wondering if it was just an illusion or not, but there was nothing in the corner. At this moment, a chill suddenly ran down my spine, and I quickly turned around, only to see Ah Mei standing behind me.

  "Brother." Ah Mei suddenly pointed to another corner.

  It turned out that there was a hole, a dog-sized hole, the entrance of which was not very regular, and it was estimated that it was opened by people after the tomb was built.

  "Sister, I feel like there's always a pair of eyes watching us." I said, scratching my head.

  "I also feel that there is danger, and it's not good to provoke the things in here."

  "They didn't give us any more information, and that monk only said the entrance is here, but we don't know if it's trustworthy or not. What if he's talking nonsense and we end up getting killed?"

  "Alas, I shouldn't have killed the Corpse Worm King. Now we're lost without it to guide us. What a regret!" I sighed several times.

  "Brother, shall we go in?" Ah Mei asked, pointing at that "dog hole".

  "This is the first time in my life I've never crawled through a dog hole! The entrance of this hole is really impossible to crawl through." I got a headache.

  "Brother is a cheat, you can't remember that time in the vineyard, such a long hole, you drilled so dazedly." Little sister covered her mouth and burst out laughing.

  "You, me." I was left speechless.

  "This hole still needs to be drilled." After finishing speaking, I adjusted my belt, bent down and squeezed my head in, followed by my body. I twisted in like a worm.

  "Ah, disgusting." As soon as I went in, I smelled a foul odor, which was even more nauseating than the smell of a toilet.

  I was just about to tell Ah Mei not to come in, but it's too late. Ah Mei has already come in, but I didn't see her crawling through the "dog hole" to get in.

  "How did you get in?" I was utterly bewildered.

  "I came in just like that!" As she said this, Ah Mei began to gesture and her body turned transparent, freely passing through the stone walls on both sides.

  This guy is more popular than anyone else! I'm just a country bumpkin who can only use some basic methods, if I had learned some Taoist magic at this time, it would be much different, even digging my own hole is better than drilling into someone else's hole! The person I hate the most right now is Mao Shi Jiu, as a master he only taught me that little bit, and when dealing with a small ghost I still have to use a big move.

  "Oh, sister! There's a saying that goes 'people are hard to deal with', and you're still alive after all the ups and downs, yet you don't even care about hurting your brother's heart!" After finishing, she covered her chest and pretended to be pitiful.

  Ah Mei was so amused that she laughed extremely hard, sucking in the air around her into her nose. Now it's my turn to laugh, this little girl's various expressions were all perfectly done.

  "Brother, you're doing it on purpose." Ah Mei immediately covered her mouth and held her breath.

  "I was just about to tell you that, who let you perform the wall-penetrating technique so happily." I pinched my nose, and my voice sounded a bit strange.

  "What's so smelly?"

  "It smells a bit like rotting corpses." This smell was all too familiar in the school dissection room during summer.
