Nightwatcher

The moment the bronze coffin was opened, a sinister atmosphere pervaded the atmosphere in the main tomb, and the torch shook violently.

The people who were about to turn around and leave stayed where they were, not because they wanted to stay, but because their blood seemed to be congealed, and the cold air enveloped them, as if their torso and blood were frozen in the extremely cold environment deep in the depths.

If Daoist Jin Lian had the body of a cat, he would have blown his hair by now.

bang!

There was a loud sound of the coffin lid falling from behind, and at the same time, everyone who turned their backs to the high platform saw the steps below, the armored mummy guards twisted their necks in unison, turning 180 degrees against the bone structure , turning his face to his back, staring at the crowd silently.

This scene was too horrifying and weird, and a huge fear exploded in his heart. The tomb robbers of the Houtu Gang showed extremely frightened expressions.

Xu Qi'an heard the sound of bones popping beans not far away, and the person A standing at the four corners of the high platform also came to life.

He slowly turned his eyes to see the expressions of his companions.

Chu Yuanzhen slightly opened his eyes wide, with beads of sweat dripping from his forehead. The long sword on his back trembled from time to time, as if he wanted to get out of its sheath, but was suppressed by an invisible force.

Master Hengyuan's facial muscles twitched, his masticatory muscles bulged, and he tried his best to break through the suppression of invisible forces and regain his freedom.

Daoist Jinlian's chest rose and fell, as if he was doing some kind of breathing. He was the calmest and calmest, but his eyes had a look of determination.

Is the Taoist holding back his big move, ready to cut his tail to survive, or sacrifice himself to protect us? Xu Qi'an thought to himself, his eyes rolled in their sockets, and he looked at Zhong Li.

Lina on her back was still in a coma, but she was the most "relaxed" one present. As for the unlucky Zhong Li, her delicate body under the linen robe trembled slightly.

I don't know if it's her fault, or mine, maybe both! Xu Qi'an thought happily in bitterness.

At this time, a picture automatically appeared in his mind, a hand covered with green hair protruded from the bronze coffin, and pressed against the edge of the coffin.

The person in the coffin got up slowly. It was a mummy wearing a yellow robe and a crown made of pure gold on his head. The skin of his face was close to the bones, and his nose was rotten, leaving only two holes.

The eyeballs are embedded in the eye sockets, as if they will fall out at any time.

The moment his divine sense captured this mummy, Xu Qi'an's brain seemed to be embedded in a steel nail, and he almost fainted from the pain, and the picture shattered.

The person lying in the coffin was indeed that Taoist, the second rank who failed to cross the tribulation, no wonder Xu Qian's scalp felt a little numb when he was so powerful.

After a few seconds of silence, the first sound of footsteps came, and the mummy left the bronze coffin and was slowly walking towards the crowd.

"buzzing"

The long sword on Chu Yuanzhen's back shook violently, but he still couldn't get out of its sheath.

Beads of sweat finally rolled off Pata Champion Lang's forehead.

Hengyuan's eyes were bulging, the veins on his cheeks and forehead were bulging, and his muscles spasmed violently. But even so, he still failed to break through the suppression of invisible forces.

Zhong Li was like a quail, trembling all over, his head buried lower and lower.

The foul smell came to the nostrils. This is because the members of the first few back soil gangs were frightened and incontinent.

But this is not their fault. In the ancient tomb thousands of years ago, the evil thing came out of the coffin and was slowly approaching them from behind

Just thinking about it sends shivers down the spine, not to mention that it actually happened.

Daoist Jin Lian closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his eyes were clear. It seems that a decision has been made.

At this moment, the footsteps stopped, and the hoarse and deep voice spread to every space and every corner of the main tomb.

"Welcome to the return of the lord!"

The sound of armor plates colliding together, the mummies at the four corners of the platform and the mummies on the steps all knelt down and worshiped someone in the crowd.

That sinister and terrifying aura quickly receded, like an ebbing tide.

Everyone was shocked to find that they had regained their mobility.

"Don't act rashly!"

Daoist Jinlian sent a voice transmission to everyone, including the tomb robbers.

"gulu"

The sound of swallowing saliva kept ringing, and the feet of the tomb robbers trembled, but they did not lose their minds. Their past experiences played a vital role in preventing them from collapsing like ordinary people. Thinking about running away makes things worse.

At the same time, a thought flashed in their hearts: My lord?

Who is the lord? Looking at the posture of the mummy, it seems that the lord is between us?

Tomb robbers, look at me, I look at you, trying to find the "master" in the crowd, who can become the master of the mummy, what kind of character this must be.

And that man is among us

The Lord of the Sick Man subconsciously looked at Daoist Jin Lian. According to the content of the mural, the owner of this tomb is a Taoist, and there happened to be a master of the Dizong present.

The conclusion is very simple, this old priest is the master of the mummy.

"He, he actually has such a status. Speaking of which, this master of the Dizong didn't make a special trip to rescue us when he came to the grave. Well, how can a commoner like me guess what a master does?"

The leader of the sick man's gang is trembling.

Gongyangsu, a wild warlock, looked at Daoist Jinlian in surprise.

After realizing that the two leaders were abnormal, the members of the Houtu Gang immediately looked at Daoist Jin Lian, who was most in line with the demeanor of a master, and felt extremely relieved.

Everyone in the Tiandihui was standing very close together, so it was impossible to tell who this mummy in yellow robe was kneeling for a while.

Out of inertia of thinking, Chu Yuanzhen first glanced at Taoist Priest Jinlian.

Priest Jinlian shook his head slightly.

Hengyuan is a monk, not a Taoist. Although he is talented, there is nothing too weird. Lina is from the Gu tribe in southern Xinjiang. She has nothing to do with this tomb. Can Miss Zhong, the Sitianjian, just rule it out? !

Chu Yuanzhen suddenly turned his head and stared at Xu Qi'an.

He remembered the reason why the team came to the main tomb. It was Xu Qi'an's "coincidence" three times in a row that they entered the main tomb.

It turned out that everything was not accidental, there was a reason for Xu Ningyan to be the master of the owner of this tomb?

This guess surfaced in Chu Yuanzhen's mind, and his body trembled inexplicably with a burst of fear.

He is kneeling on me? Call me my lord? The person involved, Xu Qi'an, could intuitively perceive that the "lord" in the mummy's mouth was himself.

Huge astonishment and bewilderment filled his brain, making him at a loss as to how to deal with it.

For a moment, he almost blurted out: Why do you say I am the lord!

But reason told him to shut up, because there were two situations in front of him: one, he was really the master of the yellow-robed mummified body, and his identity was so terrifying that it was unimaginable.

Second, for some reason, the mummy recognized the wrong person.

Regardless of the first possibility, if it is the second possibility, the mummy has identified the wrong person. Then if he asked rashly, his identity would definitely be exposed.

When the time comes, they will be met by Tuan Mie.

Thinking of this, Xu Qi'an forcibly suppressed the turbulent emotions, stared at the yellow-robed mummy expressionlessly, and said in a deep voice:

"well done."

The head of the mummy was buried lower and lower.

Seeing this scene, the sick man's leader was almost stunned. He slowly widened his eyes. It turned out that the "lord" in the mummy's mouth was the sixth-rank martial artist, not the Taoist priest of the Dizong?

This, this is just a warrior.

Gongyangsu also couldn't hide the shock in his heart. At this moment, he was extremely fortunate that after contacting these "reinforcements", he didn't quietly activate the qi-watching technique.

Otherwise, I am afraid that I will die on the spot. The cause of death is that I saw something that I should not see.

The members of Houtu Gang held their breath and looked at Xu Qi'an stupidly.

The mummy, with its head down, let out a low voice again, with some doubts: "Why didn't my lord become a fairy?"

Become, become a fairy? !

This sentence was like a thunderbolt, which exploded in the ears of everyone. The low-strength tomb robber, the high-level Daoist Jinlian, and of course Xu Qi'an also set off turbulent waves in their hearts.

It's just that compared to the tomb robber who lost the ability to manage expressions, Xu Qi'an and the others were calmer and didn't make any expressions.

Xu Qi'an stared at the mummy expressionlessly, but his inner drama exploded at this moment.

Become, become a fairy? According to my understanding, becoming an immortal means transcending grades, and it is an existence on the same level as Buddha, Gu God, and Witch God.

Who is the protagonist of this yellow-robed mummy?

After the gods and demons, there are only a few existences beyond the level. This tomb is more than two thousand years old. In the two thousand years, has someone become a fairy?

No, it may also be the failure to become a fairy, but the mummy doesn't know

Fuck, it must be Zhong Li's fault to encounter an existence of this level in the next tomb, it must be her fault, what should I do, how should I answer?

The mummy's head was drooping, and the pair of eyeballs that were about to fall out of their sockets moved, as if they were looking at Xu Qi'an.

Noticing Xu Qi'an who was sizing up the mummy, his eyes suddenly sharpened, and he said slowly, "Are you teaching me how to do things?"

The mummy lowered its head in fear, its body trembling slightly, "My lord, forgive me, my lord, forgive me."

As he spoke, he unbuttoned the yellow robe, revealing the shriveled flesh inside, his chest collapsed, and the outlines of ribs appeared one by one under the thin skin.

In addition, Xu Qi'an noticed that the body of this mummy seemed to have been burned.

"puff"

Suddenly, the mummy made a movement that no one expected. He raised his palm and pierced his chest, and dug out an object from it. It was not a heart, but a jade seal with a clear color.

"The lord came here for this jade seal? You left it in my body back then, and entrusted me to keep it safe. I, I have always kept it safe. Now, I will return it to the lord."

The mummy offered the jade seal with both hands, and said hoarsely and lowly: "Now, what age is it now?"

"The current Central Plains Dynasty is called Dafeng." Xu Qi'an said lightly.

The "Dafeng" mummy murmured, and asked humbly, "I, how many years have I been asleep?"

How the hell do I know, why don't you come with me first, I will hand you over to the country, and let the researchers tell you the answer Xu Qi'an complained wildly in his heart.

His mind was running at high speed, and he didn't take the initiative to answer the mummy's question. He said lightly: "Time is meaningless to us, isn't it?"

Nice answer!

Daoist Jin Lian said encouragingly in his heart, Xu Ningyan is really stable.

He gave Xu Qi'an a vague look, telling him that it was almost done, and he wanted to find a way to get out.

Xu Qi'an got it, and while reaching out to pick up the jade seal, he said, "Go back and sleep."

He didn't have too much to say, firstly because he was afraid of saying too much and making mistakes, and secondly because he was setting himself up now, as the lord, he didn't need to explain to his subordinates when he took back his own things.

In fact, he didn't want the jade seal, but judging by the attitude of the mummy, this jade seal seemed very important. If you don't take it, it may make the mummy suspicious.

The jade seal is hard and feels like warm jade to the touch. Xu Qi'an turned over the jade seal calmly, saw the words engraved on the bottom, and only had time to write down a few words. Suddenly, the jade seal turned into white sand, passing between his fingers .

An indescribable, indescribable, tide-like force rushed into Xu Qi'an's body through his arm.

He felt the blood in his body pouring into his brain crazily, causing intense dizziness, as if something in his body had awakened.

"You are not the master"

The mummy suddenly raised its head, and the blood in its eyeballs burst out little by little.

The hoarse and low voice echoed in the tomb, mixed with strong anger and killing intent.

"Walk!"

Daoist Jin Lian reacted the fastest. With a wave of his sleeves, a gust of wind blew up. The tomb robbers from the Houtu Gang, Chu Yuanzhen and others sent them off the high platform and flew towards the gate of the main tomb.

At the same time, he grabbed Xu Qi'an's shoulder and tried to throw him down.

Stay by yourself and bear the wrath of the mummy.

However, Xu Qi'an shook his shoulders, shook his hands away, pressed his palms on his chest, and said in a low voice: "Taoist leader, take them out.

I stayed. "

boom!

The air in the palm suddenly exploded, and Daoist Jinlian shot out like a cannonball.

During the throwing process, Daoist Jin Lian saw the mummy grabbed Xu Qi'an's neck and lifted him up high. The soldiers at the four corners of the high platform rushed forward brandishing their weapons, intending to smash the ants who pretended to be the lord to pieces.

"Xu Qi'an" Daoist Jinlian murmured.

PS: There is nothing wrong with the burning time of the candles in the previous chapter. It can burn for decades, but the oxygen in the tomb is limited, and the candle will be extinguished if there is no oxygen.
