People in Zong Tomb, Jieling Pirates

Chapter 262 Expulsion

The scene below at this moment had already undergone earth-shaking changes from when they set off.

The originally unobstructed stone platform was densely covered with corpses, as if it were stained with a layer of black waves, and the ups and downs made people feel fear.

But this was not the real reason for Chen Ziyan's reaction. After all, he had already anticipated the existence of the zombies and was mentally prepared to face them.

What really surprised him was that among the seemingly endless swarm of corpses, he saw the eight-armed guard he had seen in Longling.

At this time, more than a dozen eight-armed guards were taking firm steps against the tide of corpse crickets, approaching the tree where they were.

Chen Ziyan's stopping action was naturally noticed by Hu Bayi who was behind him. Seeing this, he also lowered his head and looked down, and then froze in the same spot.

After being lost for more than ten seconds, Hu Bayi stuttered and asked: "Master Chen, I... I'm not dazzled, right?"

The scene he saw made Hu Bayi a little bit unable to believe his eyes, so his tone was a little hesitant.

Chen Ziyan twitched the corner of his mouth and said harshly: "No, I saw it too."

He was not shocked, but his ability to accept it was slightly stronger and he didn't show it too obviously.

Hu Bayi looked at the scene below, and suddenly Hu Bayi's actions just flashed through his mind. He couldn't help but raise his head and asked: "Master Chen, could this also be caused by your seal?"

Although it is a question sentence, the tone is biased towards affirmation.

The thing is so bizarre that it can no longer be explained by coincidence.

Thinking of the rustling caused by the seal just now, Hu Bayi had reason to suspect that the appearance of these eight-armed guards was also the work of Chen Ziyan.

"I'm not sure..." Chen Ziyan said ambiguously: "Maybe it has something to do with it."

He actually thinks so too, but there is no clear evidence for the time being, so it's not good to be too full of words, lest there be a reversal and a bad ending.

Regarding word of mouth, Chen Ziyan still pays great attention to it.

"Look over there!"

Hu Bayi was about to say something, but out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught sight of several figures slowly appearing on the edge of the stone corridor, and his attention was immediately drawn to them.

Chen Ziyan looked in the direction indicated by Hu Bayi and saw several slightly stiff figures at the end of the stone corridor, stepping on a steady stream of corpses and heading towards the stone platform.

Although it was the first time he saw it, Chen Ziyan immediately recognized the identity of these figures because of their ferocious appearance, as if they had been skinned. They were none other than the other protagonist who appeared in the system selection - the blood corpse.

.

Originally, Chen Ziyan had already planned to run away with the blue-eyed fox corpse he had obtained and abandon the blood corpse that did not appear.

After all, even if King Zhou Mu was not alive, under the current situation, he would not be sure that he would seize the prey from the tiger's mouth and go into the tomb chamber to grab a bloody corpse.

Unexpectedly, the blood corpse now ran out on his own initiative, which made him think again.

At the height I am at now, I can definitely take the risk and give it a try. Even if I fail in the end, I am absolutely sure I can escape smoothly.

In short, it's worth a try.

After thinking about it in his mind, Chen Ziyan was a little eager to give it a try.

There is no way, the example of Wushuang Ghost is too tempting. For him, having an extra puppet armor, although it is not immediate, is still a power that cannot be underestimated.

Hu Bayi accidentally turned around and saw Chen Ziyan's expression, and his heart suddenly trembled. Although he didn't know what Chen Ziyan was planning, he could vaguely feel that he was going to cause trouble.

And making trouble at this juncture is not a good choice.

So he quickly said: "Mr. Chen, I always have a bad feeling. Let's leave quickly."

"No rush, let's take a look first." After Chen Ziyan heard this, his excitement calmed down, but he still decided to wait and see.

The following situation is not difficult to understand. The target of the eight-armed guards is obviously the tree body, or more accurately, the coffin in the tree, and those bloody corpses are undoubtedly here to stop these eight-armed guards.

But before he could see the two parties coming into contact, a situation had already arisen here.

With the rustling sound, the originally dead vines around them seemed to come to life, like thousands of giant pythons attacking towards the location of the two people.

"Lao Hu, let's go!"

Faced with such a situation, Chen Ziyan couldn't care less about his own thoughts and quickly told Hu Bayi to run away.

With such a dense level, even if they have three heads and six arms, they can't do anything.

Hu Bayi had always been paying attention to the surrounding situation, so his reaction speed was no slower than Chen Ziyan. At this time, he also used enough strength to climb up.

With all their efforts, the two of them were able to move up more than ten meters in the blink of an eye.

After getting over the initial tension, the two of them looked back in unison, but this look revealed something was wrong.

After Hu Bayi dodged the attack of the vines, he said to Chen Ziyan with a strange expression: "Why do these vines seem to be chasing us away on purpose?"

Now, their bodies were almost covered by wriggling vines, but the strange thing was that only one vine attacked them every time, and the intensity of the attack was such that it was easy to dodge.

"It's not like that, or it's chasing us away." Chen Ziyan looked around and said with a grimace.

He had already noticed this after the vine's first attack.

You must know that Hydra Cypress has no wisdom, and there is no possibility of underestimating the enemy. Hunting based on instinct has always been all-out.

At first, Chen Ziyan thought that the Tianxin Stone on Hu Bayi's body had played a role in preventing Hydra from attacking aggressively. However, after such attacks occurred many times, he decisively ruled out this possibility.

How could such a thing as temptation be normal? Normal temptation is not called temptation.

Combined with the 'warning' guess he came up with just after Hu Bayi was attacked, Chen Ziyan was 80% sure that this was a deliberate attempt to drive away the two of him.

Hearing what Chen Ziyan said, Hu Bayi felt relieved. He didn't resist this matter at all.

Just chase it away, as long as the vines don't swarm up.

However, through this bizarre encounter, he gradually became suspicious of the tomb, but he just buried his doubts in his heart and had no intention of speaking out.

Different from Wang Kaixuan's style of asking questions whenever he wants, Hu Bayi's personality is more restrained. Sometimes he will think about it in his mind first and then raise it when he thinks there is no problem.

It was obvious that Chen Ziyan knew something about the strangeness of this place, but since Chen Ziyan didn't say anything, he didn't ask.

So after thinking about it in his mind, he just said: "Then let's hurry up."

Regardless of why all the vines did not attack and what secrets were hidden here, for them at this moment, leaving was the best and most necessary choice.

Chen Ziyan nodded when he heard this. After such an interruption, he had long given up the idea of ​​touching the bloody corpse in muddy water.

The owner of the tomb has already warned him repeatedly, and he, Mr. Chen, is not a stubborn person, and he knows what it means to give up when something is good.

Anyway, the original goal has been accomplished, and a core material for the puppet armor was also obtained. The harvest is actually very rich, so there is no regrets in retreating like this.

After all, compared to blue-eyed fox corpses, blood corpses were not that rare. At least he knew there was another place where he could find at least one when he took the time to go there.

What really makes it difficult for Chen Ziyan to give up is the Kunlun ancient jade as a reward. It is the rarest thing at this stage, the kind that there is no place to look for.

But now that the situation is in front of him, he will not pursue another reward too much after he has obtained the blue-eyed fox corpse.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that Chen Ziyan has already obtained it. If his hands are empty now, it will not be an easy thing for him to just let go.

Maybe even if he is warned many times, he will still try to give it a try.

After all, returning empty-handed is not his style.

Immediately, the two of them stopped paying attention to other things and accelerated their climb upwards.

Because they were worried that the vines following them would make a surprise attack, Chen Ziyan and Hu Bayi both left a margin of three points to deal with special situations.

However, this did not happen until they saw the entrance to the cave.

Even as they approached the exit, the vines behind them slowly slowed down, and finally stopped moving about ten meters away.

This performance undoubtedly further confirmed Chen Ziyan's suspicion.

"Master Chen, Lao Hu!"

The others waiting above had been paying attention to what was going on below. The moment Chen Ziyan and the others appeared, they were immediately spotted by Wang Kaixuan.

Then the fat man threw off the two remaining ones and shouted: "I've tied them up here, you guys come up together quickly."

Obviously, he also saw the vines chasing behind him.

Chen Ziyan and Hu Bayi didn't make any ink. They immediately grabbed the rope that was thrown down and climbed up flexibly.

Although the vines did not continue to catch up, they all knew in their hearts that as long as they did not leave this underground cave completely, they would not be truly out of danger.

The two people climbed up from the bottom. Wang Kaixuan and others above were also helping to pull the rope. With the joint efforts of both parties, Chen Ziyan and the others quickly returned to the ground.

The moment he left the cave entrance, the exhaustion from the continuous explosion swept over him. Chen Ziyan was a little better. This kind of consumption could be recovered slowly for him now, but Hu Bayi didn't have the physique like him.

, rolled directly onto his back, his chest heaving violently.

Wang Kaixuan saw this and asked quickly: "Lao Hu, are you not injured?"

When he looked at the scene just now, he felt frightened, not to mention Hu Bayi, who had experienced it personally.

So when I saw Hu Bayi like this, I couldn't help but worry whether he was injured.

As for Ding Sitian, she was even more direct. As soon as Wang Kaixuan finished speaking, she had already come to Hu Bayi to check.

Hu Bayi moved his body to cooperate with the inspection and gasped: "It's okay, I just need to take a rest."

"Okay, then you old man, have a good rest." Wang Kaixuan, who felt like his mouth was full of dog food, gave the guy a blank look.

Da Jinya approached Chen Ziyan next to him and asked curiously: "Mr. Chen, it looks like it's dangerous down here?"

"Yes, if this wretched place didn't have two brushes, there would be no return." Chen Ziyan said, unloading the blue-eyed fox corpse from behind, and asked: "Old Jin, do you think I brought it back?"

What?"

"This..." Da Jinya looked at the dead blue-eyed fox corpse for a while, and said tentatively: "Could it be the legendary blue-eyed fox corpse?"

I am familiar with this knowledge and have naturally heard related stories, but I have never seen the real thing, so my words are not so sure.

"That's right." Chen Ziyan nodded.

Wang Kaixuan was too lazy to watch Hu Bayi and Ding Sitian's show of affection, so he came over. After hearing what Da Jinya said, he asked: "What is this blue-eyed fox corpse? Is it also a kind of rice dumpling?"

Dajin Dental Clinic said: "Yes, this is a rare thing. I always thought it was a made-up thing. I didn't expect to see it today."

Then, without waiting for Wang Kaixuan to ask questions, he took the initiative to tell the story about the blue-eyed fox corpse. Although the details were slightly different, it was generally similar to what Hu Bayi said.

After Wang Kaixuan heard this, he looked at Chen Ziyan in confusion: "Master Chen, why did you bring this evil thing out?"

Before Chen Ziyan could speak, Da Jinya said: "You are an amateur when it comes to this fat man. Nowadays, this thing is a good thing, especially this top-notch blue-eyed fox corpse. If you can find a relationship to help luck,

If you go out, it will definitely sell for a sky-high price."

Da Jinya knew that Chen Ziyan would not sell antiques to outsiders, but this corpse was not an antique, and with all the allusions to this thing, it would be difficult to enter the museum, so he thought that Chen Ziyan planned to take it back and sell it to gringos.

"Is this thing worth anything?" Wang Kaixuan asked in disbelief.

To say that gold, stone, and jade articles were valuable to Thaksin, but such a weird-looking corpse was also valuable, Wang Kaixuan really didn't believe it.

Da Jinya said: "Don't believe it yet. You have to know that many people abroad like to collect this. They say it has an eternal beauty of death. The weirder it looks, the higher the price."

Wang Kaixuan blinked and looked at Chen Ziyan: "Mr. Chen, is it really worth it?"

He still didn't fully believe Da Jinya's words, so he wanted to ask Chen Ziyan for confirmation.

Chen Ziyan nodded and said: "Lao Jin is right. Well-preserved corpses contain huge commercial and cultural value. However, the cultural value of this blue-eyed fox corpse is not estimated to be much, but there should be no shortage of research value."

He felt that if he announced this thing, the first ones to come to the door would be research institutions.

"Good boy!" Wang Kaixuan looked at the tied up blue-eyed fox corpse with glowing eyes, as if he had seen a treasure: "I bet this is a big treasure."

He would not have any qualms about selling corpses, not to mention that with this fox face, it was still unclear whether he was human or not, and he had no mental barriers at all.

Seeing him like this, Chen Ziyan said: "Don't even think about selling it to you. I still have use for this thing. What's more, this thing is alive. Anyone who sells it to me will be harmed."

"Alive?!" Upon hearing this, Da Jinya immediately took several steps back and opened a safe distance.

With his small arms and legs, he didn't want to get too close to a 'living' corpse.

Wang Kaixuan also restrained himself a little and said on guard: "You are really a fucking rice dumpling!"
