Tomb Raider System of Myriad Realms

Chapter 42

Zhang Qiling took Yahou and Orochimaru along the direction of the pointer, bypassed Konoha's village, passed through layers of forests, and turned to the top of the mountain behind the village. At his feet were the heads of Hokage from various sessions of Konoha Village.

"Uncle Snake, give way, you stepped on my elder brother!"

Zhang Qiling was a little dissatisfied when he saw the head of the Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato stepping on the foot of Orochimaru.

With Orochimaru's rebellious character, he naturally does whatever he wants, but when it comes to people and things he is interested in, it is another matter. Just like how he treats the arrogant Sasuke, his tolerance is still very high.

Orochimaru jumped to the side and moved away from Namikaze Minato's avatar: "Where are we going now?"

"You'll know when you get there." Zhang Qiling turned his eyes to the jungle at the foot of the mountain, and could vaguely see a row of wooden houses.

Jump down the cliff, pass through layers of rocks and jungles, and go straight to the wooden house.The Crow Queen followed closely behind, her body speed was comparable to that of Zhang Qiling.

The appearance of the wooden house looks very ordinary, just like a row of ordinary small wooden houses.But when he got closer, it made people's hairs stand on end, creepy.Coupled with the shading of tall trees all around, the sunlight is completely blocked, making this place look like a haunted house, full of gloom.

"Master, this is..." The Crow Queen unconsciously approached Zhang Qiling. Girls should be timid after all.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here!" Zhang Qiling comforted softly, "Let's go and have a look!"

Pushing open the door and entering, a biting cold hit, which made people get goose bumps all over.

"I'm going, why is it more eerie than the grave!" Zhang Qiling put his arms around the crow queen's shoulders, wanting to give her some warmth.

The crow queen blushed and looked at the master's hairy arm: "My lord, are you cold?"

"What? Aren't you cold?" Zhang Qiling asked suspiciously.

The Crow Queen shook her head: "I don't feel cold! It feels very cool!"

"Cool?" Zhang Qiling was taken aback for a moment, but the little girl blushed, as if she didn't feel afraid of the cold at all.

The crow that appeared on her shoulder when she was in a coma after being fatally hit by Kamaitachi appeared again in her mind.

In Two-dimensional, the crow is the messenger to save the undead.Those who died who were not saved will become resentful spirits wandering in the world, and the crow saves these resentful spirits. The specific method is to beat these resentful spirits to death.

Therefore, in the legend, the phenomenon that a crow is nearby when a person is about to die is interpreted as the crow guarding the dead, preventing his soul from becoming a wraith.Among them, the more representative one is the Yata crow, that is to say, the three-legged crow. This crow has three legs and hangs the Yata Gouyu on its neck. It is an envoy sent to the world by the god Amaterasu.

After entering the wooden house, Zhang Qiling felt bitingly cold, but the Crow Queen felt "cool". Could it be that she really had some connection with the crow?

But now is not the time to think about this issue, let's find the death mask first, heal Orochimaru's hands, and complete the task assigned by the system!
The wooden house is very empty, without any decorations, and you can see every corner of the house from the door.

"Hey, why isn't there a wall dedicated to hanging all kinds of masks like in the original book?" Zhang Qiling couldn't help talking to himself.

"My lord, what are you looking for?" The Raven Queen was also a little puzzled.

"Hmm—there should be a lot of masks hanging here."

"Mask?" Orochimaru looked around. He didn't seem to be afraid of the cold.As expected of Uncle Snake, how else could he stay in the cold underground all day long doing scientific research, and use Wan Snake as a psychic beast?Why are snakes afraid of the cold?It is estimated that he feels as cool as the crow queen now.

"Yes, the mask. After you find it, your hands will be healed. Find it quickly!"

"Are you kidding me?" Orochimaru glanced at the empty wooden house. The interior of the house was very simple, and it could be seen clearly with just a glance.

Zhang Qiling ignored it and carefully searched the walls and floor.As Captain Mojin, you can't just look at the appearance of the environment.

Walking to a wall, a strange dusty pattern caught Zhang Qiling's attention.He opened his mouth and blew, then stretched out his hands to fan left and right, and the pattern became clear.

"Doughnuts?" Zhang Qiling frowned, thinking.

"Master, it's not a donut, it's missing a lollipop. It's more like a whirlpool!" The crow queen reminded.

"The whirlpool? Is it the whirlpool family?"

"The Uzumaki clan?" Orochimaru was taken aback, "Isn't it extinct?"

"It seems that the last clan member is the sister-in-law Uzumaki Kushina!" Zhang Qiling pondered.

Kushina Uzumaki is the wife of the fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato, and the mother of Naruto, the protagonist in Hokage, who came to Konoha Village after the Uzumaki family was wiped out.

"The pattern is a bit strange..." Zhang Qiling stretched out his hand and pressed on the swirl-shaped symbol. He just wanted to see if he could press it down, but suddenly it sank down slightly, making a crisp clicking sound. Zhang Qiling's eyes lit up , there is a door!

Gently twisting the wrist, the vortex can actually spin!
With a "snap" sound, the wall in front of him opened automatically from the middle, revealing a deep tunnel!

A strange light flashed in Orochimaru's eyes, it seems that this kid really has a few strokes.

Zhang Qiling took out the "Super Waterproof Flashlight" from the system warehouse and looked into the tunnel, winding down to nowhere: "Since there are no masks in the cabin, let's go down and have a look!"

"Okay, let's go down and have a look." Orochimaru agreed.

Zhang Qiling stepped into the tunnel, followed by the Queen of Crows and Orochimaru.

The tunnel twists and turns like a spiral staircase.No matter where the flashlight shines, it cannot find the end.

The darkness in front of me is like a vast night sky, and the light of the flashlight is too weak here, like the stars cannot illuminate the entire sky!
The three of them spun downward, and after walking for an unknown amount of time, they all faintly felt a bad feeling.

"What's going on? Is it a bottomless pit?" Zhang Qiling stopped, shaking his flashlight to look around, trying to find a breakthrough in his vision.

"This may be an illusion." Orochimaru guessed.

"Illusion? Do you mean we are under an illusion?" He had no way to deal with the illusion, and Orochimaru's hands were disabled and unable to form seals, so he couldn't count on him at this moment.

I don't know if Namikaze Minato, Tsunade, and Jiraiya who are still in Banban Street have finished reminiscing about the past, or call him back!
Just when Zhang Qiling was about to open the summoning scroll, the Crow Queen, who had been silent all this time, said, "Let me do it!"

After finishing speaking, she clasped her hands in front of her chest, nodded and closed her eyes, and muttered something, as if she was reciting some spell.

Suddenly, from the darkness came the crisp sound of rattling iron chains, from far to near, getting closer...
