Chapter 855: Don’t Move
This kind of tomb only had some bad luck in it. However, now that the entrance of the tomb had been opened, it led directly to a tomb chamber, and the filthy energy could also be emitted.
If they could not enter, Xie Qiao should be able to feel it.
Since the Crown Prince wanted to enter, Zhou Weizong would not be at ease if he did not follow.
“The tomb is too small. You can wait upstairs. Minister Xie is here.” Zhao Xuanjing was straightforward and followed Xie Pinggang to the tomb.
Zhou Weizong stretched out his hand. He felt a little confused.
Was Xie Pinggang enough?
He was the personal imperial bodyguard captain of the Crown Prince, right?!
Ever since His Highness had Xie Pinggang, he could not tolerate guards like them anymore!
Xie Qiao naturally had to follow him.
“Your Highness, Why are you here? It makes more sense for the subordinates to explore the way first in such a place. How can the master go in while the servants wait upstairs? This isn’t right, no?” After Xie Pinggang reached the tomb at the bottom, he turned around and looked at the person with a strange expression.
There was a lot of light coming in from the entrance of the huge tomb, so it was not dark inside.
This tomb was not high either. After Xie Pinggang entered, he had to bend to talk.
“You just have to do what you’re told.” Zhao Xuanjing did not say anything more to him.
Xie Pinggang shut his mouth.
The tomb they entered was very simple. There were only some earthen jars and valuables inside. There was no copper or silver. Even the earthen jars were almost broken and nothing valuable could be seen.
“This tomb is interesting. The earthen jars are broken into pieces. The things inside must have been taken by someone, right? But this tomb that was raided was sealed well. It seems that this thief has a conscience?” Xie Pinggang smiled sarcastically.
“Unfortunately, the tomb wasn’t sealed properly. The entrance of the tomb was a little porous. The dark energy here is so heavy. I guess the coffin has been soaked in water.” Xie Qiao glanced at it.
What she cared about more was the treasure that the ghoul had mentioned.
The treasure should not be referring to the reis.h.i.+ mushroom, but what could it be?
Xie Qiao did not quite understand.
Xie Pinggang had already raised his feet and walked toward the tomb at the side.
That was the main tomb, and it was much bigger. It was just that its position was a little lower, causing the pitch-black water to cover a layer of the ground. The coffin was actually rotten into pieces, and the corpse floated on the surface of the water, giving off a disgusting smell. Xie Qiao almost vomited when she saw that.
She was experienced and knowledgeable, this… was nothing!
Xie Qiao gently covered her nose, and then…
“Y-Young Master Xie, don’t move.” Xie Qiao suddenly shouted and reached out to stop Xie Pinggang.
“I’m not a fool. The ground is full of dirty water. How can I step into it? But I see a lower tomb over there…” Xie Pinggang pointed inside.
“There should be other funerary objects there, such as livestock.” Xie Qiao glanced at it and said. Then, she pointed at the black water. “You can’t touch the water. You’ll get sick if you touch it.”
“Is it that powerful?” He did not believe it.
Of course, although he did not believe it, he did not seek death.
“There seems to be something on that corpse.” Zhao Xuanjing narrowed his eyes slightly.
Xie Qiao took a closer look. It was a piece of yellow cloth with a talisman inscribed on it. It was a little messy.
Her gaze was more focused on the walls of the tomb. There were some strange drawings on the walls, and there was something hanging on the four corners. In addition, there was a wooden figure hanging in the upper room in the middle of the tomb.
“This is… a puppet corpse.” Xie Qiao took a step back. “No wonder those ghouls said that the Grand Immortal is powerful…”
Before Xie Qiao finished her sentence, a creepy-looking ghoul hovered from another tomb..
