Ma Dabeard's right hand, which had just held the orb, was purple and black, swollen like a pig's trotter, obviously poisoned!

"Quick, cut off his right hand to stop the poisonous gas from attacking his heart!" Monta shouted loudly.

Xiao Hei was the closest, and immediately pulled out his sword, and cut off the entire right arm of the horse's beard with a swiping sword, but it was too late, the speed of the poison spreading was astonishing, even if the right arm was cut off, the poisonous gas would still be gone. It has come to my heart.

"Ahhh! Help... Help! Help!!!" Ma Dabeard screamed, rolling on the ground in pain, purple-black blood spurted from the wound on his right arm, and his face quickly turned from blue to black.

The bearded horse's struggle lasted only a short breath, his eyes turned white, his seven orifices bled, and he curled up on the ground without moving.

Duan Mingchen stepped forward to check it out, shook his head and said, "He's out of breath, it's so poisonous!"

"Amitabha!" Fanny said with lowered eyebrows.

Although the leader of the horse thief had committed many crimes and deserved his death, everyone was secretly shocked by the tragedy of his death.Sure enough, there are dangers everywhere in this tomb, so we need to be more vigilant.

Unexpectedly, the orb contained in the dead man's mouth was poisonous, but this poison has no effect on the corpse, but it can kill people instantly, it is really appalling.Now no one dared to touch the female corpse and the coffin, leaving the golden coffin open.

Gu Huaiqing looked around and saw nothing but this golden coffin, so he said, "It seems that there is nothing else here, let's move on."

One of the small team of seven died, and Ma Dabeard, who was originally at the back, was dead, so Xiao Hei took his place, while Duan Mingchen was still holding a torch to lead the way ahead, Gu Huaiqing followed closely behind, followed by Toli, Fanny and Monta.

Ma Dabeard died tragically from poisoning, although he was greedy to snatch the orb from the mouth of the deceased, but the people who entered the tomb all had their own motives, wanting to take something from here, so there was unavoidable sadness and sadness in their hearts. Health vigilance.

Leaving the queen's tomb and continuing to walk forward, without the illumination of the night pearl, the light dimmed again.

They entered a long and narrow corridor. The airtight space was dark and stuffy, with an unpleasant musty smell, and several traps were triggered in the middle. Fortunately, they were prepared and escaped without any danger. .

All six of them held their breaths and concentrated on their vigilance, not daring to be careless in the slightest.

The narrow corridor seems to be endless, and the air inside is not circulated, making people feel chest tightness and shortness of breath.

Gu Huaiqing couldn't help tugging at Duan Mingchen, and asked in a low voice, "Brother, do you think there is anything we are looking for in this tomb?"

Duan Mingchen held Gu Huaiqing's hand, and comforted him: "If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you catch a tiger cub, since you've come, you can only go to the end."

Gu Huaiqing frowned, and was about to speak again, when Duan Mingchen suddenly shouted: "Be careful!"

Duan Mingchen grabbed Gu Huaiqing's hand and pulled him back violently, pulling him into his arms to protect him firmly.

Gu Huaiqing felt a breeze blowing by his ears, and then heard a crisp ding, as if a hidden weapon hit the stone wall.

Gu Huaiqing shuddered, the hidden weapon came out from nowhere, and it was silent. If Duan Mingchen hadn't grabbed him just now, he might have been shot by the hidden weapon.

Before he finished rejoicing, he heard a muffled groan coming from behind the team. Gu Huaiqing heard this voice very familiar, it looked like Xiao Hei!

"Xiao Hei, how are you?" Gu Huaiqing hurriedly turned his head and shouted to the rear.

Xiao Hei didn't answer, and then heard a plop, as if someone fell to the ground.

"Not good, he was shot in the dark!" said Monta, who was walking in front of Xiao Hei.

When Gu Huaiqing heard this, he was extremely anxious, and wanted to squeeze behind to check Xiao Hei's injuries.

Duan Mingchen stopped him and said, "Stand still, I'll go over and have a look."

Duan Mingchen leaned sideways, squeezed through the narrow corridor, handed the torch to Toli, and told him, "Go ahead and lead the way, and take care of Huaiqing by the way."

Toli nodded, turned sideways to let Duan Mingchen pass by, and then walked to the front of the line.

Gu Huaiqing frowned and pursed his lips tightly. He knew that Xiao Hei must be seriously injured, otherwise he would definitely not refuse to answer his question with his temper.

"How is Xiao Hei?" Gu Huaiqing couldn't see what was going on behind him, so he could only ask Duan Mingchen loudly.

Duan Mingchen couldn't see clearly in the dark, so he could only carry Xiao Hei on his back, and said, "He's injured, I'll take him away. There are many traps here, so it's not suitable to stay here, everyone keep going, get out of here as soon as possible!"

When they heard this, several people stepped forward, but fortunately, there was a faint light in front of them, indicating that the corridor was coming to an end. Toli held a torch and led everyone out of the corridor.

After walking fifty or sixty steps, an empty tomb appeared in front of him, but without the illumination of the night pearl, it was still dim.

Six people walked out of the corridor one by one, Duan Mingchen who was walking at the back was carrying the injured Xiao Hei on his back, Gu Huaiqing stepped forward to take a look, and couldn't help but let out a low cry.

There was an arrow sticking out of Xiao Hei's back, right at the back of his heart, and a lot of blood gushed out from the wound, staining Duan Mingchen's clothes red.His eyes were closed, his face was pale, and he appeared to be unconscious.

When Gu Huaiqing saw Xiao Hei's situation, he knew it was not good, and his heart sank all of a sudden, before he had time to think about it, he quickly took out the golden sore medicine from his bosom, and stepped forward to stop Xiao Hei's bleeding.

Duan Mingchen put Xiao Hei off his back, Gu Huaiqing took off his coat and laid it on the ground, Duan Mingchen put Xiao Hei on Gu Huaiqing's coat face down, Gu Huaiqing held the golden sore medicine in his hand, hesitating whether he should pull out the arrow first .

But Duan Mingchen motioned him to go away first, bent down and stretched out his hand to check Xiao Hei's breath, then felt his pulse, then sighed solemnly, shook his head and said: "Huaiqing, don't be so busy, Xiao Hei He...has gone..."

Gu Huaiqing's hand holding the golden sore medicine bottle trembled, and the medicine bottle fell to the ground with a clang, breaking into several petals.

"No... no... how could this happen?" Gu Huaiqing took two steps back in a daze, shaking his head unacceptably.

Gu Huaiqing looked down at Xiao Hei who was lying on the ground, he was lying in a pool of blood, he could not speak, he could not move, his plain face was still expressionless, as peaceful as if he had fallen asleep.

"Xiao Hei, wake up, wake up!" Gu Huaiqing, with red eyes, rushed up to shake him awake, but was hugged by Duan Mingchen.

"Huaiqing, calm down, Xiao Hei has already gone, don't bother him anymore." Duan Mingchen hugged Gu Huaiqing forcefully, ignoring his struggle, pressed his head firmly against his chest, and patted him gently Softly comforting her back, "Okay, okay, good boy, don't be sad..."

Duan Mingchen's arm was so strong that Gu Huaiqing couldn't break free even if he tried hard.

What's the use even if you can break free, Xiao Hei has already gone, Gu Huaiqing suddenly felt a powerless sadness in his heart...

The scene of meeting Xiao Hei for the first time came to his mind. In the solemn palace, he flew in like a black bat, obeying the emperor's order, and following him.

In fact, Gu Huaiqing did not fully trust Xiao Hei at the beginning, after all, he was the shadow guard assigned to him by the emperor, and the shadow guards were only loyal to the emperor for generations, so Gu Huaiqing had to suspect that Xiao Hei was sent by Xiao Jing to monitor him.Therefore, as soon as they met, they deliberately made things difficult for him, forcing him to call him master, and even gave him such a ridiculous name as "Xiao Hei".

However, Xiao Hei seems to really regard himself as the master, hardworking, loyal, and meticulously executes every order of the master.

From the capital city to the desert, the distance of thousands of miles, the long journey, Xiao Hei has been with him, guiding him, preparing food and lodging for him, taking care of him in every possible way, many times Gu Huaiqing has not thought of it, and has not even ordered him. , Xiao Hei silently prepared for him.

Although most of the time, Xiao Hei is taciturn, as quiet as a shadow, silently following behind him, sharing his worries and labors.But Gu Huaiqing knew that without Xiao Hei, this journey would not be so smooth.

Gu Huaiqing was glad that Xiao Jing gave Xiao Hei to him, it really helped him a lot, and added color to the whole journey.

Gu Huaiqing would sometimes deliberately tease Xiao Hei and play tricks on him, but every time Xiao Hei just looked at him helplessly, at most twitching the corners of his mouth, but never complained.

Along the way, although Gu Huaiqing asked him to call him master, in fact, Gu Huaiqing had long regarded Xiao Hei as a friend in his heart, and had a feeling of sharing weal and woe.

Who knew that in this tomb, Xiao Hei, who was so good at martial arts, was shot by a damned hidden arrow and lost his life just like that.

Gu Huaiqing couldn't help blaming himself, if Xiao Hei hadn't followed him to hunt for treasure, he wouldn't have been hurt by a stab in the back, and he wouldn't have died at a young age.

Some people don't feel special when they get along, but they feel sad when they lose, and Xiao Hei is like this.You don't know how precious he is until you lose it.

Gu Huaiqing felt as if his heart had been slashed by a knife, and his eyes couldn't help but get wet.

Seeing his uncomfortable appearance, Duan Mingchen hugged him distressedly, and coaxed him softly: "Don't take the responsibility on yourself, it's not your fault, it's hard to guard against backstabbing, who would have predicted this?"

Gu Huaiqing closed her eyes in pain, but her throat was so choked that she couldn't speak.

Duan Mingchen took out his handkerchief, wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said, "Don't cry, seeing you like this will break my heart."

Toli wanted to go up to comfort Gu Huaiqing, but seeing the closeness of the two, he felt like he couldn't get in, so he couldn't help frowning, and coughed low to remind them.

Duan Mingchen glared at him coldly, Gu Huaiqing also lost his composure in shock, broke free from Duan Mingchen's arms in embarrassment, wiped his red eyes with his sleeve, and walked to the side of Xiao Hei's body.

Duan Mingchen was afraid that he would get hurt, so he took the initiative to pull him away, stepped forward to take off his coat, and covered his head over Xiao Hei's body.

Gu Huaiqing showed a distressed expression and said, "Can't we take Xiao Hei away?"

Duan Mingchen said: "It's really inconvenient to take him away, we'll come back later and take him out for burial, shall we?"

Gu Huaiqing also knew that Duan Mingchen's suggestion was correct, but he still felt sad and uncomfortable in his heart.

Monta and Fanny got a little impatient, and Monta urged: "Let's go!"

Duan Mingchen sighed, took Gu Huaiqing's hand, protected him in front of him, and continued to advance in the dark tomb.
