"It's better than all of you dying in the King Xian's Tomb, cutting off your children and grandchildren."

"The old man is thinking about it for you in the long run, not playing tricks."

Only then did Shirley Yang understand what he meant, and said.

"Senior, after all you talk about, you are worried that we will die in the tomb of King Xian."

"We appreciate your kindness, but firstly, we probably don't have time to get married and have children, and secondly, since we know the whereabouts of Muchen Zhu, I don't want to leave this matter to future generations, so I will settle it in my generation!"

Ji Changsheng also said.

"Master Chen, no matter how dangerous it is to sacrifice the king's tomb, I can assure you that nothing will happen to them."

Chen Yulou shook his head and said seriously.

"Mr. Ji, this old man has heard of your name before. Even if you have supernatural powers, you probably won't be able to win this guarantee."

"The danger in the tomb of King Xian is beyond the imagination of ordinary people!"

Ji Changsheng asked curiously.

"Then what exactly did you encounter back then? Tell us about it."

If we can obtain first-hand information about the tomb of the king, it will indeed reduce unnecessary losses.

Chen Yulou nodded immediately.

"Forget it, the old man will tell you about the danger, so that you can give up."

He is a very face-saving person. He suffered a big loss in the tomb of King Xian. Not only did all his companions die, but he also lost a pair of eyes. He retired from the world and became a fortune teller.

That incident can be described as the biggest stain in his life, and he completely lost the face of Xiling Pirates. He has never mentioned it to anyone for more than 70 years.

He was able to take the initiative to tell the details today, and it can be seen that he is really worried about Ji Changsheng and the others' safety.

It also shows the danger of presenting the king's tomb from the side, which is by no means comparable!

After Chen Yulou sorted out his thoughts, he said slowly.

"Speaking of that incident back then, the old man will never forget it for the rest of his life, and he still has lingering fears."

After saying goodbye to Partridge Whistle in Pingshan, he accidentally got a human skin map, which is said to be the map of the tomb of a witch king in southern Yunnan in ancient times.

At that time, he didn't know that Muchen Pearl was hidden in the tomb of King Xian. He only knew that it was a large tomb, and there must be a lot of gold and silver treasures in it, so he summoned eight fellow experts and went to Yunnan to rob the tomb.

After analyzing the map, the tomb of King Xian should be near a big snow mountain called Aiteng, which is also called Zhelong Mountain locally, and there is a tributary of the Canglan River named Snake River at the foot of the mountain.

The Snake River flows into a valley. Because the valley is full of poisonous insects, it is called the Valley of Insects by the locals.

The Tomb of the King Xian should be in the depths of the Insect Valley!

Nine expert tomb robbers meandered, and came to the insect valley without any danger.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they entered the Valley of Worms, they encountered a highly poisonous miasma, and four of them died under the miasma.

Chen Yulou led the remaining four people, rushed through the miasma, escaped with a narrow escape, and fled into a huge cave in a panic.

Hearing this, Ji Changsheng couldn't help being stunned.

This is different from the plot in the original book. Chen Yulou's companions should have all died in the miasma, and he himself lost a pair of eyes because of this, and he didn't enter any cave at all!

It seems that Chen Yulou's story line has also been rewritten.

Then the reason why he lost his eyes back then must be different from the original book!

Chapter 357

Speaking of dangerous places, Chen Yulou's face turned pale all of a sudden, and he couldn't help trembling slightly.

Decades later, that scene is still vivid.

Back then, he took the remaining four colleagues, after breaking through the miasma, he fled into a big cave in a panic.

There is a dark river in that cave, which is the Snake River.

The dark river didn't know where it was going, and the miasma outside the cave was about to float in. In order to save their lives, the five of them had no choice but to jump into the river and swim towards the cave without their lives.

The cave had no light source and was very dark. The five people didn't know the direction and could only go down the river.

After swimming for about a cup of tea, I saw dry river banks on both sides, so I hurried up to the bank.

After a few people went ashore, they lit a torch for lighting, but the torch was as bright as a lighter. They found some dead branches nearby and simply tied a few torches, only then did they see the situation in the cave clearly.

But I saw that this is a dark underground cave. The winding and rugged Snake River passes through the cave, with shallow river beaches on both sides.

The cave was chilly with gusts of gloomy wind, and several people had just come out of the river, and when the cold wind blew, they were all shivering with cold.

Immediately someone asked Chen Yulou, what should I do now?

Outside the cave is a deadly miasma. The cave is very low, and the miasma gathers in the low places. If there is no violent wind and rain, it will not disperse easily.

It is impossible to go back the same way, and going out is a dead end.

And this cave doesn't know where it leads. They don't have diving equipment, so they don't dare to risk it rashly.

You can't go forward, you can't go back.

There is nothing in this cave, and they didn't bring too much supplies. If they waited for the miasma to dissipate here, they would starve to death in the cave in less than ten days and half a month.

Under the balance of the two, Chen Yulou also felt very embarrassed.

At this time, two companions began to complain, saying that four brothers were killed before the tomb of King Xian was seen, and now they are still trapped in this cave with an uncertain future. Ghost place to suffer.

When Chen Yulou heard this, he was immediately displeased. As the leader of Xiling, although tens of thousands of brothers under him had disappeared, his status in the world was still there.

He is also a very face-saving person, and he is very annoyed when he hears that there are complaints in other people's words.

But this time the tomb robbery was initiated by him, but he was in a dilemma, and it was difficult to refute it.

Fortunately, two other companions spoke for him.

"Since I'm in this business, I'm just begging for a living with my head pinned to my trouser belt. Life and death are determined, wealth and honor are in the sky! Greedy life is afraid of death, fearful of the first and the last, what great things can be achieved!"

"In our line of work, how can there be no immortals? If the Tomb of the King Xian was so easy to find, it would have been emptied long ago. Is it our turn?"

"If you two don't want to do it anymore, leave now, we still have two cents less!"

Seeing that they were arguing, Chen Yulou hurriedly persuaded them that they were all brothers, so they all said less and the most important thing was to find a way out.

Waiting foolishly in this cave is not an option. There is miasma outside the cave, and it is definitely impossible to go back the same way.

Judging from the location on the human skin map, this dark river should flow to the depths of the worm valley, and now we can only bite the bullet and break through!

Since there is no other way, we can only try according to his suggestion.

So, the five people cheered up again and groped into the depths of the cave.

After walking for a cup of tea, the river beaches on both sides became narrower and narrower, and there was no room for people to stand, so they could only swim in the water.

Fortunately, they brought a jug of strong wine. After the five of them drank the wine, the strength of the alcohol broke out, and they were hot all over. They hoped that they could use this strength to overcome the coldness of the river.

The five of them entered the water, and after swimming a few hundred meters along the river, some weird figurines suddenly appeared above their heads.

These figurines don't look like stone figurines, they are all tied up with dead vines and hung upside down on the ceiling of the cave. There are hundreds of them at a glance.

The withered vine was covered with blue moss, I don't know how many years it has been.

After these figurines appeared, several people couldn't help but feel refreshed.

In ancient times, there was a custom of burying living people, but later it was replaced by figurines. The appearance of these figurines shows that there must be a large tomb nearby!

One of them said excitedly: "I've never seen this kind of figurines before. They don't look like utensils from the Central Plains. Let me dig one up and have a look."

After finishing speaking, he threw a throwing knife and easily cut off the withered vine, and a figurine fell into the water.

Everyone swam over immediately and fished the figurines out of the water to watch.

But they saw that the figurine was covered with dust, and after brushing off the dust, a layer of dry dead skin was exposed, not like a clay figurine or wood.

"Could it be that this is a mummy?"

Considering that King Xian was a witch king of a minority ethnic group in the Han Dynasty, he was proficient in all kinds of mysterious and weird methods, and it was not surprising to use living people to make human figurines.

From this point of view, this figurine just shows that the tomb of King Xian is not far away!

After receiving this important information, several people couldn't help but increase their confidence, and they are waiting to regroup and continue to explore.

At this time, I saw a lot of bubbles gushing out from the bottom of the water. After the bubbles burst, a foul smell was emitted, which was unbearable.

These few people have been robbing tombs all year round, and they knew it was the smell of corpses as soon as they smelled it!

Looking down, the part of the figurine soaked in the water actually gradually melted, releasing foul-smelling corpse gas.

Chen Yulou turned pale with fright, and quickly asked people to cover their mouths and noses, the corpse gas is poisonous!

Everyone quickly threw away the figurines, held their breath, and swam forward quickly. After swimming for more than 100 meters, they got away from the corpse's aura.

Only then did they realize that these human figurines are actually a vicious mechanism. Once they fall into the water, the mummy will be dissolved by the water, releasing a highly poisonous corpse aura to harm people!

But when they breathed a sigh of relief, they only heard a clacking sound coming from the water, like dumplings being dropped.

Looking back, I saw countless splashes on the surface of the water, and some underwater things were attacking them quickly, and there were a lot of them.

After all, Chen Yulou is the leader of Xiling, with rich experience, he suddenly realized it when he saw it.

"There are sleeping Gu worms inside the figurines, everyone swim quickly!"

It turns out that the danger of this figurine is more powerful than they thought!

There are countless Gu insects hidden in the figurines, usually sleeping in the mummy, once the mummy is dissolved by water, these bugs will come out to harm people!

Although they didn't know what these Gu worms were, they guessed that they were not for fun, so they hurriedly swam forward.

But those bugs were extremely fast in the water, and they would catch up with them in a blink of an eye.

In desperation, several people took out their equipment one after another, preparing to go back and face the swarm.

After all, they are masters of inverted fighting, all of them are self-defense guys, and their skills are not ordinary. Facing these Gu insects, they will definitely not catch them without a fight.

However, dozens of thumb-sized black bugs suddenly jumped out of the water and rushed towards the crowd.

These bugs look like leeches, but they are much more flexible than leeches, moving as fast as lightning.

One of them immediately recognized the identities of the bugs.

"It's a water hornet!"
