Chapter 69: When Will the Cycle of Revenge End?

  At the same time as I heard the sound of the boulder shattering, I was also pulled up, and the opening of the hole became even wider. I crawled upwards with all my might, my feet finally touching solid ground, and the three of us sat there panting together.

  "This guy's vitality is really strong, no matter what it can't be killed." I said.

  "This is reasonable, after I briefly entered its mind and found that everything that supports its source of life was somewhere on the back, only I didn't have time to figure out what it was before waking up," said the coffin.

  "Could it be the bird pattern you've been looking for?" I asked.

  "It's possible that the bird pattern is a meteorite with a strong magnetic field, and it's what transformed this originally human guy into a monster. Maybe this is the will of the mortal world, wanting him to become a living guardian beast." The coffin mused.

  "Don't say any more, let's hurry up and leave. Whatever it is can be said in the next few chapters. The readers are almost bored to death."

  "What did you say?"

  "Nothing, I don't know what I'm saying either. Anyway, let's hurry up."

  The three of us started climbing up. The coffin was relatively thin and could be walked in a half-crouching position, while PongPong and I had to crawl forward. This tomb passage extended in a zigzag shape, and every now and then, we had to turn around and climb in the opposite direction. After turning several corners, I was so tired that I couldn't catch my breath, and with the narrowness of the tomb passage and poor air circulation, my body could no longer hold on.

  "It's no use, it's no use, take a break." I lay on the ground with my face up.

  This reminds me of an episode in "My Team Leader My Team" where the team leader got annoyed and led all his brothers to crawl through a few miles long passage made up of connected oil tanks, getting them exhausted. I guess my current situation isn't much better than theirs.

  The coffin didn't stop, but continued to move upwards on its own, perhaps it wanted to find the exit and let in some air. Pengpeng also pulled me up, who was panting, to continue climbing upwards. At this moment, my determination to lose weight became even stronger, if I got out, I would definitely slim down.

  As soon as I got up and took two steps, I heard a noise behind me, like something was moving at an extremely fast speed. Is that guy following us again? God, it's endless, this thing has been causing us so much trouble all the way here, and now it won't even let us leave in peace. I cursed its ancestors in my heart, but my hands and feet didn't slow down as I climbed up. Pengpeng also seemed to have heard the noise and quickened his pace. That little coffin kid was really fast, he was already out of sight by now.

  The sound of movement was getting closer and louder, I subconsciously turned my head to look back, that unforgettable face appeared under my feet, accompanied by a large hand. I quickly pulled my foot back, but it was still a step too slow, and was firmly grasped in his palm. The guy with only one arm and one leg moved surprisingly fast. But now wasn't the time to think about this, I immediately used my other foot to kick his face, fortunately he only had one arm left. The feeling of kicking him was like kicking a large stone, he didn't react at all, but I was shocked and felt a sharp pain.

  "Sister's husband, give you a dagger." Pong Pong put this dagger into my hand.

  The passageway was extremely narrow, with no room to turn around. Pengpeng wanted to help but couldn't, and could only watch anxiously. I obtained the weapon and felt more confident, so I stood up and stabbed at that hand. However, I forgot that this place wasn't just narrow, but also very low. As soon as I stood up halfway, my head was knocked against something, and I felt dizzy. The monster saw me relax completely and knew it had an opportunity, so it suddenly exerted force and pulled me down. This thing retreated quickly, not caring about my life or death, letting my entire body swing back and forth.

  After I regained consciousness, I had returned to the outside of the cave. The guy with missing arms and legs was staring at me with his eyes wide open in front of me. With an empty feeling in my hand, I realized that the dagger was gone, and all I could do was retreat helplessly. Over a thousand ways to escape flashed through my mind, but none of them were useful. It also stumbled towards me, step by step, shaking my heart. I had nowhere to retreat, my back against a hard object, and when I looked up, it was a statue of Wu Zongzhong, holding a treasure sword and staring at me with anger. I thought to myself, if you're really a spirit, please come back to life quickly and save me. When people lose their direction, they often seek help from ghosts and gods, it seems that this is not superstition, but hope for survival.

  I leaned against the stone statue, slowly getting up. The monster was getting closer and closer to me. I hid behind the back of the stone statue, hoping it could help me resist for a while, but in front of this powerful monster, it was undoubtedly a futile effort. I was just trying to buy time, Pengpeng and the coffin would definitely come back to save me.
