Chapter 6 Zhang Qiling 5
Chapter 6 Zhang Qiling 5
"Miss Qingyue, you're so rich and beautiful, why did you decide to go tomb raiding?"
Zhang Qiling listened intently, also very curious.
"What are you going down into the tomb for?" Qingyue didn't answer the question directly, but asked another one instead.
Without hesitation, Black Glasses replied, "Of course it's for the money!"
"Searching for memories," Zhang Qiling uttered calmly.
He wanted to know about his past.
Behind his glasses, his eyes, devoid of a smile, lowered as he looked at her: "And what about you?"
Qingyue parted her lips slightly: "Find the Corpse-Eating Pill, blow up the tomb."
"what?"
"??!"
The two grown men were quite shocked.
Did she, like everyone else, want to live forever? But that Corpse Beetle Pill was a failed product, not a real elixir; there is no such thing as a true elixir of immortality.
Zhang Qiling was merely long-lived, not immortal.
Perhaps I can live for 300 years, or perhaps 500 years, who knows? Anyway, there is a time limit.
Black Glasses was the same; due to an accident, he also lived a long life, and the two had been living together before.
Zhang Qiling's expression was indifferent: "You came for the Corpse-Eating Pill?"
"Yes!"
"That stuff is inedible."
Because she had just given him money, Zhang Qiling kindly and sincerely told him the truth.
Eating the Corpse-Eating Pill will turn you into a monster, a long-lived monster without reason.
“I know, I’m looking for the Corpse-Eating Pill so that I can blow up the grave containing it.”
Qingyue said, clenching her fist and swinging it.
Zhang Qiling's expression changed, and it was very subtle.
Destroy it?
Before leaving, they visited the bombed grave; the rumors circulating outside were true.
The inner chambers of the several cemeteries I visited before were destroyed. The entrances and exits of the cemeteries were undamaged, but the interiors would be completely destroyed. Unless someone digs deep into the mountains and breaks through several layers of soil to get there, it will never be possible for anyone to go in or bring anything out.
However, the damage was so severe that even if it were dug up, it would only be ruins.
Black Eyes often deliberately led people to dig for treasures in the cemeteries he had visited before, but Qingyue directly cut off this route for him.
So those graves were all destroyed by this woman in front of me!
The man with the black glasses asked in surprise, "So many graves have been blown up these past few days, did you do it all?"
Qingyue nodded: "Yes, those things shouldn't exist."
"What do you mean by that?" The man in black glasses asked, his eyes filled with curiosity.
"Simply put, someone asked me to do something: deal with the ultimate behind the bronze gate, and incidentally destroy the Corpse Beetle Pill."
She didn't intend to make excuses for these things. From the moment Heaven approached her, Zhang Qiling and she were entangled together.
Dealing with the ultimate?!
"Who?" Zhang Qiling's eyes narrowed.
How could such a thing be possible?
If she succeeds, will he no longer have to guard the Bronze Gate, or will he also have a future?
Qingyue raised her finger and pointed to the sky: "The Way of Heaven."
Two people: "..."
The man with black glasses hesitated before speaking, then asked, "Have you been reading too many novels?"
"What kind of ghosts and monsters are there here? Is it strange that there is a Heavenly Dao?"
Qingyue spread her hands; they had seen more monsters in this world than she had.
"Too."
Black Glasses thought of a female ghost crawling behind him...
Zhang Qiling asked, "Who... exactly are you?"
"You can think of me as a reclusive cultivator who collaborates with the Heavenly Dao to enter the mortal world and resolve the mysteries of the Heavenly Dao."
After all, she was going to blow up the tomb, and completely fill it in. Of course, she wasn't using explosives, but magic. Even if she didn't say it now, they would witness it with their own eyes after she did it.
It's unclear how much of what she said they believed.
They stopped walking and found themselves in another space.
There is a huge lake here.
The warmth of the living person clashed with the cold mountain, and the air began to churn with an undercurrent at the slightest sign of something amiss.
A crisis is imminent.
Zhang Qiling drew his black gold ancient sword, and Black Glasses pulled out his gun and loaded it.
Qingyue conjured a sword out of thin air, and with a turn, the sword's cold light flashed. She placed Xi'en on the ground and made it grow larger.
She had nothing on her just now, so where did she get this long sword from?
Zhang Qiling and Black Glasses exchanged a glance; now they believed what she had said before...
This is absolutely not something an ordinary person could do. Just the fact that he could conjure a sword shows he's no ordinary person; he must be a cultivator with a storage space!
There's also the giant white snake Xi En, with barbs standing up on its body, which at first glance look a bit like a jumble of horns, and it also has wings, making it look like a dragon.
"Finally, I can speak." Xi En opened her mouth and spoke in human language.
It didn't intend to speak until its owner had revealed everything. Now that its owner had told enough, it wouldn't be a problem for it to speak up.
"What the hell are you?"
Black Glasses stared dumbfounded at the white snake towering above his head, with small wings on its sides. Could this be a real-life version of a dragon-like serpent?
"Tengshe" (Soaring Serpent).
Zhang Qiling uttered two words.
It has a pair of cloud-like wings a few inches behind its head, and extremely sharp barbs on its back.
If it were in the stage of evolving into a dragon, this body should have horns on its head; its appearance clearly shows that it has no relation to a dragon.
Xi En flicked her forked tongue at him: "You have good taste."
"You keep Tengshe as your pet?!" Black Glasses looked at Qingyue in utter shock: "Miss Qingyue has quite the status!"
He even gave a thumbs up as he spoke.
Even a jiao serpent is surprising, but I never expected it to be a teng serpent!
"The goods have arrived."
Qingyue looked in a certain direction and held her sword horizontally in front of her.
A sharp claw swung towards her, but she managed to block it.
Black Glasses stared intently and exclaimed, "My goodness, what is this? A nine-tailed fox has appeared?"
Its body is that of a fox, but its tail is a mixed tail, with the tails of nine different animals, including a fox tail, a crocodile tail, a wolf tail, and so on.
"Look at me."
Hee-eun planned to have a showdown with that ragtag nine-tailed fox.
It leaped forward and engaged it in combat; the two animals moved at incredible speeds.
Qingyue warned, "It carries a virus, so be careful not to get scratched."
"I know, Master."
Xi En let out a long cry, "It can't handle this thing! What a joke!"
Black Glasses looked toward the dark source of the sound and sighed, "If only we had some sunflower seeds, this is a rare sight to see mythical beasts fighting live!"
Zhang Qiling: "Watch out for the lake."
The sounds of Xi En fighting the scruffy nine-tailed fox attracted other monsters.
Pairs of eyes appeared on the lake's surface, one of them as large as a lantern.
"What kind of tomb is this? How can so many different kinds of monsters gather in one space?"
A bead of cold sweat trickled down Black Glasses' forehead. He had only encountered this situation inside the Bronze Gate before, and had never faced a situation where one problem followed another.
The monsters in the lake emerged; they were fish monsters, each about 3 meters long, with sharp, protruding teeth, like fatter versions of piranhas, and their appearance was far from pleasing.
