Traveling through the beast world: Counterattack after binding the childbirth system.

Su Yan used the system map and dug deep into the entire palace to search, but still couldn't find the skull lock.

[Xiao Mei, it looks like you can't find it.] Just pick up a key and follow the key to find the lock... Only Xiao Mei can do this. If it were her, she would have thrown it away long ago.

[Alas!] Xiaomei sighed, but still did not give up, [Host, please think about it again. Is there any clue that you haven't found yet?]

Su Yan found a rock to sit on, yawned, and recalled the whole incident.

Finally, he stood up and said to Xiaomei: [Well! ]

Then he headed straight for the well where the girl had thrown the skeleton key.

Unlike thousands of years ago, this well is now filled with mud and sand.

Su Yan used a ground-splitting talisman to directly split the well.

Dozens of meters down, I saw a golden coffin.

[Golden coffin, a royal relative? Xiaomei, bring it up.]

【Good host. 】

Seeing that she was not coming back and the big ghosts nearby had retreated, Rong Ruo teleported over to look for Su Yan.

"Oh? You also like digging graves?" Rong Ruo looked at the golden coffin.

Su Yan shook her head, "Not really. Unless it's a special case, there's something I need in that tomb. But Xiao Qi likes to dig graves, maybe he learned it from Xiao Shiyi."

"Well, she has searched all the tombs in Luoya Continent."

"Uh... this is a bit too much. How can you dig up your own ancestral grave?" Su Yan was speechless. She would have to give this little girl a good scolding in the future.

Rong Ruo replied: "It doesn't matter. You won't be scolded for digging up your own ancestral graves to look for treasure."

Su Yan couldn't help laughing, "Just spoil her."

His eyes turned back to the golden coffin. "Take a look at this. Is it interesting?"

Rong Ruo replied: "The deceased should be a royal family or nobleman. The deceased of ordinary status would only have red, black, white and yellow, not gold."

"I think so too. Open it." Su Yan said with a smile.

Rong Ruo nodded, "Okay."

A long chain weapon appeared in his hand and wrapped around the coffin. He shouted, "Break!"

The entire golden coffin was torn into pieces, revealing what was inside - a box.

There is a lock on the box, which is the skull lock that Su Yan is looking for!

Su Yan did not open it rashly, but asked Xiaomei to trace who locked the skull lock and what was in the box.

Soon the surroundings changed again.

The girl put a blood-red heart into the box, and finally pasted a black talisman on the top of the box.

Rong Ruo said to Su Yan, "That is a curse talisman, cursing the owner of this heart to be loveless and ruthless for all eternity. As for the skull lock, it looks like it is made of ten thousand year old cold iron. It is a saint-level refining material."

"Wow~" Su Yan looked at Rong Ruo with admiration, "You know so much! Even more than Xiao Mei!"

Xiaomei: [……]

Rong Ruo said shyly: "No, Zong Sili knows more. I only know the basics."

Su Yan waved her hand and said, "Don't be so modest. I'll teach your daughter all this later."

Rong Ruo replied, "Well, this ten thousand year cold iron is not only hard, but also can seal. There are bright red bloodstains on the padlock, which is the blood curse. In other words, in order to open it, besides the key, it can only be opened by the owner who swore blood to it and use live blood."

After saying that, the girl who locked the box suddenly committed suicide by cutting her throat! However, after her death, she turned directly into a dead aura, and no remains were left.

"Very good, the only way is to use the key." Su Yan took out the skeleton key from the system space.

Rong Ruo looked at the key with a serious expression, "This female ghost cursed the Lord of the Heart. If you open it, the curse will be lifted."

[Xiao Mei, do you want to open it?] Su Yan asked Xiao Mei. Since she strongly requested to find something, she naturally asked her.

Xiao Mei replied listlessly: [It seems there is no need to open it. ]

【Don't you want to know whose heart that is? 】

【In no mood!】

【…】

Su Yan nodded at Rong Ruo and said, "Open it and take a look. I am quite interested in that talisman."

"Why, Yanyan, would you be interested in this kind of cursed talisman?" Rong Ruo took the key and helped Su Yan open the skull lock.

"Didn't I take Xiaoqi and the others to the Ancestral Dragon's Tomb this time? The Ancestral Dragon sealed his heart and locked his desires. It feels a bit similar to this. I'll study it." Su Yan couldn't explain it, but the talisman made her feel a little special.

A trickle of bright red blood flowed from the skull lock, but when it fell to the ground, it turned into a puff of death and dissipated.

The heart in the box was originally alive, but after coming into contact with the deathly aura, it instantly turned into a piece of withered dry skin.

Xiaomei was not satisfied with the result, so she did not waste any more energy tracing the origin of the heart.

Su Yan seemed to have noticed something and looked back.

A faint and blurry white shadow stood behind her, holding a book in his hand, maintaining the same appearance as before his death.

"Are you... the human in the secret room?" Su Yan looked at his outline, which was very similar to that handsome man.

The man said, "Thank you. I'll take the treasure map at the end of the world as your reward."

"Who are you?" Su Yan asked.

"I was originally the human crown prince Cheng Yangfu of Yunxi Continent. Later, I didn't know how I ended up in the virtual world and became the adopted son of the Southeast Ghost King. The Northwest Ghost King abducted me to the Northwest Palace and placed me under house arrest here."

"You said that girl is the Ghost King of the Northwest?"

"Yes."

Su Yan looked at Rong Ruo and said, "Don't judge a person by his appearance."

"Well, for example, Yu Hao and the others, their real ages..." Rong Ruo said with a smile.

Su Yan was silent for a moment, "Then the appearance is still good!"

"Are you free now?" Rong Ruo asked Cheng Yangfu.

Cheng Yangfu bowed respectfully to Rong Ruo and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Oh?" Rong Ruo was surprised.

Cheng Yangfu said: "Your Majesty has the merits of an emperor, so he must be the supreme emperor."

Su Yan was slightly surprised, "Can you see it?"

Cheng Yangfu nodded, "Yes. There is no death energy in the two of you, and even your majesty has the aura of a god, so you must be an enlightened master."

"I have it too." Su Yan said as she released a trace of divine power.

Cheng Yangfu was shocked and bowed respectfully, "Cheng Yangfu is blind, I pay my respects to the goddess."

"Haha~ No, no need to be polite. What are your plans for the future?"

"My past life is all in the past. I will go to the Sea of ​​Reincarnation to be reborn as a human again. Maybe I will also enter the Taoist sect to practice and become someone like your majesty and the goddess."

"Then we wish your Highness that all your wishes will come true and that everything you do will be smooth sailing." Su Yan said with a smile.

"Your Majesty and the Goddess wish together." Cheng Yangfu bowed again and gradually disappeared.

Rong Ruo did not stop Cheng Yangfu from leaving. The white soul is a kind and sinless soul.

Su Yan put away the black talisman on the box, [Xiao Mei? Where are we going next? ]

Xiaomei replied: [Treasure map at the end of the world. ]

[I knew you were going to say this.] Su Yan handed the map to Rong Ruo, "Are you interested in going to the end of the world to search for treasure?"

Rong Ruo took the map and said, "As long as Yanyan wants to go."

"Hmm. Why did the Northwest Ghost King commit suicide?" Su Yan picked up the skull lock with the key still inserted in it and looked at it carefully. "Is it just to prevent others from opening the box?"

Rong Ruo replied: "Since she is the Ghost King of the Northwest, it would be too easy for her to destroy a key, but she threw the key into the well and let it drift. Perhaps she wanted someone to open the box."

Su Yan suddenly thought of something and looked at Rong Ruo's hand, "Let me take a look to see if there is anything dirty on the lock."

Rong Ruo let her look through it, and said apologetically, "Yan Yan, I'm sorry."

Su Yan raised her head and met his gaze, "Why are you apologizing suddenly?"
