Chapter 66: Soup Its

  I gaze at the remaining scenery... all of this seems like a dream. I look at Shitian, he and I are one expression.

  "Brother, Brother Chikawa! Look, the Weak Water is actually moving!", Shitian exclaimed in surprise. I saw that the water inside the Weak Water River had started flowing. Lü Sijian once told me that the Weak Water was calm but had a rapid current, this...

  "Ah!", I didn't care about Shitian's cries and directly pulled his hair and threw him into the river.

  "Floating? How did it float?", what I saw was completely different from what I saw at that time, the leg hair built by Lus previously sank, but this time it floated up, wasn't this weak water?

  "Zihe big brother... it seems even weak water is gone."

  "It should be like that..." I touched my forehead... Since the weak water droplets merged into my body, there was a refreshing coolness throughout my whole body.

  "Zihe, let's go take a look at them." I only remembered that there was still a group of people lying over there when Shitian said this. Wait, no! "Huh? Shitian, how did you become so energetic all of a sudden?", I didn't notice it just now in the water, but Shitian is jumping really high now?

  "Huh? I don't know either, I suddenly feel like I have strength all over my body... Could it be because I just drank the weak water?"

  "Righteous energy gathers in one sword, sword energy collects in one body."

  "The ghostly shadow falls with the knife, and the ghostly shadow dies with the knife."

  I saw Shitian try out the technique, and incredibly it worked! The damaged sword was actually restored. It seems that all of this must have been done by Chao Feng...

  "Alright, alright, Xītēng stop using brute force, who knows what other dangers there are later." I looked at Xītēng's excited appearance, continuously waving his fists.

  "Right, right! But... Zi Chuan big brother, who do you say the tomb owner is? Why did Chao Feng say that I must see him?" Shi Teng leaned in towards me, and I was also quite curious about this question. Does Chao Feng mean to say that I know him? How could I possibly know someone from a thousand years ago?

  "I don't understand... but I'm quite curious... okay, let's wake them up first." Business is urgent, so Shengteng and I woke them up one by one. Fortunately, they're all fine, although at first, they were dazed when they saw us two... "You... didn't you guys fall into the Weak Water?" Lü Suijian was shocked to see me. I hadn't planned on telling them what just happened in the Weak Water... First, Wu Yin had already caused a lot of trouble; if they knew about the existence of this thing that shouldn't exist, wouldn't it be chaotic?

  "No, maybe you were fooled by the Stone Spirit and had an illusion. At that time, I cleaned up the stone dragon that made you dizzy and put it in the weak water." I casually made up an excuse to fool them, and fortunately, they felt a bit dizzy at this moment and didn't want to think about anything else... It's also hard to believe that Shengteng has become so energetic and lively.

  "Master's secret art... secret art." Shitian was also flustered and made an excuse to cover it up, but fortunately they believed him.

  "I think we should take a break before going in... I look at our current state, everyone is not doing well, and inside it's always dark. Shengteng and I came in relatively early... don't know how long has passed."

  "Hmm...", my opinion was agreed upon by everyone. We sat at the entrance, resting in the most comfortable position. It felt very comfortable lying on the ground... maybe we were really too tired. Shengteng and I were fine... I saw that they were all drowsy.

  "Zihe, big brother... you should sleep too. I'll keep watch." I admit my eyelids were also fighting... First we passed through the Luo Xin, then the zombie horde arrived here and met Chao Feng... What else will we encounter next? We've lost all our strength, how can we struggle on? Looking at Shi Teng's solemn expression, I nodded and lay down, closing my eyes.

  "Clang!", I feel like I haven't slept for long... but when I woke up, everyone was already awake, woken up by a deafening bell sound, feeling like my heart skipped a beat. Everyone looked at me, and I looked at you. Where did the bell sound come from?

  "Shi Teng, where did that sound come from?" I asked Shi Teng, who was vigilantly staring around.

  "I don't know either... it seems to be coming from inside...", he said very cautiously, as if sniffing out something. "Lizichuan, let's keep going inside", Lv Sijian came over and acted as a representative seeking my opinion, thinking that it was okay anyway, I had just lain down for a while, in such a strange place the sooner we leave the better, if it wasn't for Chao Feng leaving me with the task of finding the tomb owner before he left, I wouldn't have...

  "Let's go." I patted my butt. A line of seven or eight people continued to walk inside, it was very quiet in here but every now and then a huge bell sound would pierce the atmosphere, Shī Téng held his life knife very carefully staring at his surroundings, what had he discovered?

  "How come there are so many stone statues?" This stone road is very long and leads to a huge palace in the distance. However, on both sides of the stone road stand many strange monster stone statues... I'm now afraid of seeing stone statues! "It can't be the Stone Spirits!", if it's this many Stone Spirits... then we're done for!

  "It's not... it just seems like an ordinary stone carving... I can't smell anything different inside the stone." I'm getting more and more impressed with Shi Tong, to be exact, I'm impressed with his nose... how is he able to smell all this?

  "Let's be careful and keep moving forward." Lusai said in a low voice, it seemed that the ridicule just now also had a certain impact on them. This was Lusai without his hundred-stitch shirt, looking a bit strange.

  We passed through that pile of stone statues, and everyone obviously let out a sigh of relief, but the bell sound was getting louder and louder, feeling closer and closer.

  "Tan Qi!", I shouted out, the scene that happened made me unacceptable, the bell sound came from beside the palace, a huge golden bell was hung up, but the person who rang the bell was Tan Qi! He was ringing the bell with his whole body tilted to one side like he had lost all six senses!

  We all ran towards him, this scene came too quickly, Tang Qi had abandoned us before, but now he appeared here as a bell ringer?

  "Tang... his", I put my hand on his shoulder and pulled him over... but what I saw was a scene of infiltration, is this Tang? The whole body feels like an empty shell! A face with no nose, mouth, eyes, all gone! But left behind were those empty hollow places.

  We all retreated a bit to the back... Something's happened to Tang Qi! That was my first thought, but who would have known that I'd see Tang Qi's upper body slowly falling to the ground right before my eyes... I felt like the Tang Qi on the ground had its belly torn open with a gaping hole... A strange creature crawled out, its entire body black and covered in bloodstains... Its hands were very long... but it was crawling using all fours... As soon as it came out, it ran off in another direction.

  "Tang... is... dead..." I stammered, "The way of the military, advancing with the clouds and fog rising!", I thought about when I met Tang before, he didn't say much but was harmonious, I don't know why he had such a strong obsession with what's inside the tomb, but at least his death is unacceptable to me.

  I snatched the life-taking knife and rushed forward, jumping up to slash at that monster... but saw that it was like a puddle of water flowing on the ground towards the front. "What is this thing?!", I shouted out, not believing in evil, continuing to hack at it with my knife. But there was no effect at all! And yet, I saw that thing getting farther and farther away from me... I stared blankly, feeling how powerless I was.

  "Zihe...gege...", I walked back and looked at the remaining skin sac of Tang Qi. It felt like not long ago he was still intact in front of us, but now he has become this. Perhaps Tang Qi wasn't familiar with them, but the only ones he knew in the group were me and Shitian...and also Lü Sijian. Shitian and Lü Sijian came down together to look at him with me.

  "That thing just now... I haven't seen it before either... but it seems like..."

  "Monkey infant..."

  They comforted me one after another... "Yuanbao, hehe, I'll kill it." What I said was very cruel... but how could I kill it?

  "Yuan... the ancestor of humans, formed from the corpse of a dead ape. After the ape's death, its body did not rot or decay, and the resentful energy gathered to form this monster. It possesses a special ability, which is that its entire body can be submerged in water..." Lü Sijian spoke slowly, but I didn't listen at all. We stared at Tang Qi for a long time...

  "Let's go," I stood up. They all came to my side, "I'm fine." I looked at the constant concern in their eyes. "I think what Qi really needs to know is the owner of the tomb, not the ape infant, right?" I suddenly realized that if he really thought about it, his heart would be here with the owner of the tomb.

  "Yes...", they replied in unison. I took a glance at this palace... Is it finally coming to an end?
