0047 Zhao Si

  Although the person didn't have any ill intentions towards me, in this situation now, I'm just passive and don't even know who that person is or how to find out.

  This man's strength was great, and he dragged me on the ground for about a minute. Then my foot touched something cold, and immediately after that, my head hit the stone, I cried out in pain.

  Damn it, rolling around in the dark, not getting knocked to death is already a big stroke of luck.

  "Little Ninth Master?" A low, hoarse voice came out of his throat, as if he hadn't spoken for a long, long time.

  I was suddenly excited, and the wound on my head bumped again, I moved my mouth, but didn't speak.

  Zhao Si?

  Is it true or false?

  Still unknown.

  I saw Zhao Si being devoured by countless corpses with my own eyes. The miserable sight of his death was unbearable to look at.

  When Hei Shu said that it wasn't Zhao Si, and I also clearly saw the thing falling from his neck, I held onto a thread of hope and wasn't so heartbroken.

  Whether the dead man was Zhao Si or not, nobody knew.

  I didn't say a word, while Zhao Si's hand grasped my arm and asked in a low voice, "Are you hurt?"

  Nonsense! His head must have hit the stone so hard, how could he not be injured? Fortunately, that stone was not sharp, otherwise his head would have been split in two.

  I let out a cry of surprise and, gritting my teeth against the pain, asked, "What are you doing here?"

  Since then, Zhao Si has never appeared again, and at that time, all the hope in my heart was extinguished.

  Now, as soon as I hear Zhao Si's voice, I suspect that my brain has been hit and my nerves are numb. Is it an illusion?

  If I saw * appear here now, I wouldn't think it's a big deal either, because the things that have happened along the way have made me suspect everything, and my heart's ability to accept things has reached its peak.

  "I rubbed, I woke up and was already here? Didn't you bring me here?" Zhao Si cursed, his heart filled with extreme depression and confusion.

  "How could I have carried you here? Look at yourself, big brother, how heavy are you? How could I possibly carry you all the way here?" I exclaimed in shock.

  Before Zhao Si fainted when we came out from the man-eating flower. I thought about it, at that time, I put him on the ground, treated his wound, and then heard a cry for help, finally, I went to take a look.

  From a normal person's point of view, Zhao Si was unlikely to wake up at that time. When I helped him treat his wound, being inexperienced, the force I applied must not have been as good as medical personnel, and no matter how hard I pressed on the wound, he didn't wake up.

  It's true, I've been neglecting such a simple thing for so long.

  It must have been then that Zhao Si was replaced by someone else.

  At this time, I just found out that Zhao Si, who died under the corpse, was not as slow as the previous Zhao Si, and he didn't look like someone who had been shot at all.

  It's so simple, I just found out now, damn it, how careless can I be!

  Then, I felt a strange gaze staring at me. Zhao Si said, "Although I haven't fully woken up yet, I'm not so confused that I don't recognize people anymore. Every time, in my daze, I see you feeding me water to drink."

  Upon hearing this, my body suddenly shook violently, and the eerie expression of Zhao Si's tragic death in the tomb passage reappeared in my mind. Moreover, Zhao Si appeared in two places at the same time - what was going on?

  Now, according to Zhao Si, I am appearing in two places at the same time, what's going on?

  At that time, I didn't believe what Bai Shousheng and Lao Wang said. Now, many things are right in front of me, forcing me to not believe.

  As they say, I appear in two places at once, one of them must be fake, but it's really hard to tell.

  And those people who look exactly alike, are they really just trying to kill us? From Zhao Si's previous actions, it doesn't seem that way.

  However, why did I, who was met by Hyakushiki Tsurugi, do such a thing? Almost killing the two of them?

  If I were to do it, what kind of situation would lead me to make such a heartbreaking move? First, hallucinations appear. Second, I found the location of the password. These two reasons may lead to murder.

  As long as I am in a state of clear consciousness, I will not do anything that harms others for personal gain.

  "My gunshot wound healed quickly, thanks to you helping me change the dressing." Zhao Si said with gratitude.

  Come on, why so melodramatic? This has nothing to do with me anyway.

  "I'll carry you, we have to get out of here quickly, it will be flooded soon." Zhao Si's expression was urgent, he grabbed my arm and pulled me onto his back.

  As soon as I heard it, I was anxious in my heart. My hands are not good at this, and if the clothes get wet on a cold winter's day, they will be difficult to deal with.

  "What's going on?" I asked.

  Hei Shu and them are still behind the Stone Gate, Qi Xie is also here, he shouldn't be unaware of this thing.

  "Just now there were two groups of people here, one group was from the Zhou family and the other group was from the Ye family. They were firing randomly just now, and the Ye family's people opened the water valve here, I guess they wanted to drown us to death. Luckily I saw it." Zhao Si replied, carrying me on his back.

  "Wait, they are still inside the stone gate, I want to go and save them." I exclaimed, my throat was itchy and uncomfortable, as if something was scratching it, very painful, probably because I hadn't drunk much water, too dry.

  Originally wanted to come out and rescue Xiao Shou Hou and them, but now can't find people, and instead put Hei Shu and them in danger.

  If the water had risen any further and they hadn't known, they would have definitely drowned there, besides they were also injured.

  I won't let them go by themselves, after all, there are three lives at stake.

  "Who's there?" Zhao Si asked in a hoarse and rough voice.

  "Hei Shu, Lao San, and another one I don't know, just came out of the stone gate, they're still inside." I struggled to get up, my feet barely touching the ground, when suddenly a clear gunshot rang out in the silent empty space, the sound coming from our left side, not far away.

  Zhao Si said: "Let's avoid it for now!"

  As he spoke, another gunshot sounded not far away, and this one seemed to be closer to us. Shi Tou pulled me behind the stone to hide, and I heard a hissing sound. Then, a cold fire stick was burning in the air above the entire space.

  Donghuo stick is something that tomb raiders must bring when entering ancient tombs. With one knock, it emits a faint yellow light. The surface has no temperature, unlike flashlights which emit light and produce some heat. In ancient tombs, light is the most taboo thing, so this is the first choice for large-scale lighting tools.

  Then the whole space was lit up, and the entire building presented itself before us. Looking at such a magnificent architecture, I could put an egg in my mouth, staring at everything in front of me in shock.

  The space was as large as two football fields, and it looked like the grand hall in the imperial palace on TV. On both sides, there were two rows of civil and military officials, with four red pillars on each side that could be encircled by two people, each coiled with a golden dragon. The floor was made of 50cm square green stone slabs. In front, there were nine steps of white jade, originally where the throne was placed. Now, it was replaced with a gold-edged stone coffin.

  The coffin is very large, with gold inlays and carved into a palace model. On the side facing us, there is a carving of a sleeping dragon flying, with eyes made of night pearls. It seems that he still remembers being buried in the Sleeping Dragon Cave, hoping to fly one day. On both sides of the coffin, there are two eunuchs' likenesses, and now I dare not determine whether they are ceramic figurines or zombies. At the back, there are also two palace maidens fanning their faces.

  There is no Great Wall here, did I go the wrong way?

  "My god, this damn thing is dead and still wants to be an emperor. But it seems there are quite a few treasures inside, I won't hold back this time." At this moment, the little thin monkey crawled out from the stone opposite us, its eyes gleaming with greed as it stared at the treasure in front of the palace.

  The thin monkey had a greedy smile on its mouth, with an unknown scratch on its face, dragging one foot and slowly getting up against the stone, looking extremely wolf-like.

  Seeing the little monkey still alive, the worry in my heart instantly disappeared. I was about to call out to it when Zhao Si immediately covered my mouth.

  "Look." Zhao Si's expression was cautious, his eyes fixed intently on the front, with a hint of doubt in his gaze.
