Chapter 32 Zhang Qiling 31
Chapter 32 Zhang Qiling 31
Ah Ning: "They have a secret weapon. Be careful, or you might get silenced if you find out."
Wu Xie immediately covered his mouth, feeling nauseous, and then vomited.
"Rinse your mouth." Xie Yuchen took a bottle of water from the man in black glasses and gave it to Wu Xie.
"Thank you, Xiaohua."
Wu Xie twisted open the bottle cap, took a big gulp, and finally felt better.
"So weak!" Xi En muttered softly.
Qingyue completely agreed. Looking at Wuxie, he seemed a bit weak. How could someone so young have this problem...?
After waiting for about fifteen minutes, a car stopped beside them, and Panzi and Fatty Wang got out.
"It's shaking Fatty to death."
"Dig!" Qingyue pointed to an empty spot and said to Wuxie and the others.
Wu Xie instinctively replied, "We're digging, what are you doing?"
"He was just kidding. We'll dig, you take a break." Fatty Wang pulled the man back.
They faced the Corpse Beetle King alone and arrived here before them; they were clearly no ordinary people, especially since it was their map that helped them find the way.
Why is Tianzhen so stubborn?
Ah Ning didn't lay a hand on him, so why don't you say that? You're only targeting that guy's wife.
"Making such a fuss over digging a hole, you noob."
Xi En was very unhappy. If it weren't for them, she could have slapped them with her tail and they wouldn't have needed to dig!
"Don't argue with an idiot." Qingyue patted Xi'en's head.
Xie Yuchen sighed, realizing he hadn't listened to a word she'd said in the car.
There were only two women here, and all these grown men were making the women do the work.
Is Wu Xie an idiot?
I speak without thinking.
I sighed countless times in my heart, I just couldn't carry it!
Wang Pangzi and two other big men started digging with shovels. Before long, the sand sank, revealing a long staircase.
After descending the steps, it grew darker and darker as you went further in.
As they descended the steps, Zhang Qiling handed the flashlight to Qing Yue, saying, "Watch your step."
This is all sand; you can slip if you're not careful.
Wu Xie had no equipment at all, and looked at the black-eyed man in the treasure bag: "Black-eyed man, do you have any extra flashlights?"
"800." Black Glasses tossed a flashlight and gave a thumbs-up and forefinger.
Wu Xie retorted angrily, "Eight hundred yuan? You're robbing me! A flashlight only costs a few yuan outside!"
"Young Master, look around and take a good look at where we are. My price is already very reasonable." Black Glasses gestured for him to look around.
Ah Ning: "Give me one."
"Here you go." Hearing that there was business, Black Glasses immediately tossed over the flashlight.
"Rich people," Wu Xie thought fiercely.
"I owe it."
After saying that, Wu Xie reached out to take it.
"I don't do credit, cash on delivery."
Black Glasses surely knows how many coins Young Master San has in his pocket!
Wu Xie glared fiercely at Black Glasses, gritting his teeth inwardly. This guy was targeting him because he was poor!
"Here you go." Zhang Qiling took out a flashlight and gave it to Wuxie.
"Little Brother is still the best." Wu Xie greeted Little Brother with a smile, then turned to Black Glasses with a cold "humph."
Wang Pangzi and Panzi had kept their equipment with them the whole time, but they didn't have any extras, otherwise they would have given them to Wuxie long ago.
"You mute, you've ruined my business again!" Black Glasses stomped his feet angrily.
"Alright, let's keep going."
Qingyue gave the order.
The others followed closely behind, walking down the steps.
There is a short path after the stairs.
The crowd stood in front of the gate.
The group kept scanning the gate with their flashlights, trying to find a way to open it.
The gate is made of two whole marble slabs, with some patterns carved on top.
Only a ray of sunlight shone in from the cave entrance, so it wasn't too dark inside.
Zhang Qiling and the man in black glasses arrived at the front door. There were some gaps in the door, so it didn't look like it could be pushed open; in other words, it had to be pried open.
The two of them worked together to pry open the door.
The group went inside. The space inside was not spacious, and there were two bronze statues of bluebirds on the side.
"Isn't this Queen Mother of the West's palace a bit too small?" Wu Xie looked around, his tone a little uncertain.
Xie Yuchen guessed, "This should be the main hall that attracts attention. The Queen Mother of the West's palace is probably still deep inside. It won't be so easy to find."
Black Glasses carefully observed the gap in the wall where the door was, and noticed that the bluebird was misplaced. Who places stone carvings inside the door? And why was this one the only one standing here? It was very strange.
"This should be a security mechanism; please step back."
He ordered several people to place their hands on the bluebird on the bronze vessel and rotate it. The door to the secret chamber next to it opened, and two corpses fell to the ground.
Qingyue shone her flashlight over and saw a hidden weapon flying out of the secret room.
The hidden weapon flew at an extremely fast speed, accompanied by the sound of it cutting through the air.
"Be careful."
Those with martial arts skills avoided it, while those without hid behind indoor statues.
The length of the hidden weapon is not lethal. Having been stored in this underground passage for so many years, it has long been teeming with bacteria, not to mention whether it contains poison. Getting cut by it is no joke.
Black Glasses picked up the hidden weapon from the ground—a bronze weapon shaped like a bluebird.
Xie Yuchen came over to examine it: "A boomerang. A normal boomerang can only circle once, but this one can circle so many times. It won't stop until it hits someone."
Qingyue: "The wisdom of the ancients was very ingenious. We can no longer replicate such a boomerang in this day and age."
With the danger temporarily averted, the group headed towards the gate.
Xie Yuchen squatted down: "This person fell in as soon as the door opened. It seems someone deliberately leaned the person against the door."
"Who else could it be but Third Master?" Black Glasses chuckled.
Wu Xie excitedly stepped forward: "These are Uncle San's men!"
Black Glasses turned the body over; there were marks on its back. "Take a look at this," he said.
Xie Yuchen: "The Qian hexagram, it seems you were right. Wu Sansheng, in order to guard against those around him, could only secretly leave marks when disposing of the corpses."
Black Glasses: "It seems that the people Third Master found this time are not only of bad character, but also have very poor skills. They took down two people with just a boomerang."
"Are you two done talking?" Qingyue kicked Black Glasses with her foot. "You two are blocking the way!"
"Oh dear, I'm here to answer your question, Flower Master." Black Glasses patted his bottom and stood up.
"Do I need your help?" Xie Yuchen rolled her eyes at him, got up and walked forward.
"Hey, I was just saying."
Black Glasses chased after them.
Wu Xie glanced at the corpse on the ground and said to Pan Zi, "Third Uncle's condition may not be good. We need to find Third Uncle quickly."
Pan Zi nodded: "Yes, Third Master."
Qingyue and the others stepped over the corpses one by one.
Zhang Qiling walked beside Wu Xie, afraid that Wu Xie would be killed in the blink of an eye. He wanted to keep an eye on him and prevent him from touching anything that might activate the mechanism.
