When I Was A Ghoul: Volume 3

By Dao MenLaoJiu

Forty years ago, an ancient Tomb of the Warring States was washed out of the waters. Forty years later, a mysterious will from my grandfather once again brought me to the grave. Deep Mountain Ghost Village, Black Haired Zongzi, Yin-Yang Boy, my comrades and I will most likely die here, but we will still be unable to escape this cursed land!

What exactly was it that caused two groups of grave robbers to all die tragically? What was it that scared Grandpa out of his wits? There was no shoveling at all, and the lights were out and the gold was not touched. The moment I opened the coffin, I knew that there was something more terrifying than ghosts …

PALACE

CHAPTER 201 - CENTIPEDE OUT OF CAGE

As the Sarcophagus was opened, a thick stench quickly spread to the surroundings, choking us until we retreated.

How should this stench be described?

It was like putting a mature durian in a microwave oven and heating it for five minutes.

The stench spread so fast that it quickly entered our nostrils and into our throats and lungs. The stench caused us to be unable to speak while covering our mouths.

Before we could look inside the Sarcophagus, we saw a multi-legged centipede that was as thick as a finger suddenly crawl onto my shoes. I was scared to the point that I instinctively lifted my leg and kicked it away.

This kick was extremely powerful, it felt as if the entire Sarcophagus was boiling over, hundreds of multi-legged centipedes gushed out like a black tide.

Fatty was so scared that he lost his shovel and shouted: F * ck, run!

At this moment, even without Fatty's reminder, we all realized that we had gotten into a lot of trouble. Especially me, I know that I don't have enough strength, so in order to not delay everyone's retreat, the moment Fatty shouted, I already fled.

However, as I was escaping, I still turned around and carefully looked inside the Sarcophagus.

There aren't any of our people in the Sarcophagus, they are all corpses with holes drilled into them. Strangely, these corpses didn't decay due to the passage of time. Instead, they looked like people who had just died, with their smooth skin and not the slightest trace of corpse spots. I deliberately looked at their chests, but I didn't know if it was because my eyes were blurry, but their chests still seemed to be moving up and down.

This kind of fluctuation was definitely a heartbeat that only a living person would feel.

Could it be that these corpses that had been dead for who knows how many years were still alive?

Isn't that all... Exquisite quality rice dumpling?

Just when I was about to scream out by instinct, Fatty, who was chasing me from behind, covered my mouth and said, Lee Dingdang, can you not f * cking short circuit? Do you know that this will cause everyone's death?

Look behind us, there are a lot of corpses in the Sarcophagus. These corpses seem to be alive. I said quickly.

Still alive? Hearing my words, everyone couldn't help but take a look at the Sarcophagus.

He didn't know if everyone saw clearly, but he heard Zhang Sanpao say: Could it be that all of the corpses in the Sarcophagus turned into corpses?

What the f * ck! If the Corpse Transformation really happens, then those thousand year old rice dumplings will be enough for us to eat. Fatty's face was uglier than crying. He couldn't help but speak, It's not the Dragon Boat Festival today. Yu Da, you don't need to be so hospitable. Bring us some dumplings to eat …"

Hehe, I'm scared now. Where did that ambition that opened the coffin go? I said sarcastically.

Seeing my sarcasm, Fatty immediately lost all face, Yo! Little Dingdang, what you said is wrong. If it wasn't for Fourth Girl, why would I, Master Fatty, go all out like this?

Both of you, stop talking. What's the time? Hurry up and grab your weapons. Those things are about to catch up. Just when Fatty and I were staring at each other, grandpa anxiously reminded us to prepare for battle.

Lordmaster, are you crazy? This crappy place is full of small corners. If we randomly fire our guns, we'll easily get our own people killed. " Fatty said.

It's not like I'm going to shoot right now. I'm going to shoot at the most crucial moment! Grandfather said while carrying the AK-47.

As he spoke, the multi-legged centipedes that had spilled out of the coffin had already crawled over with rustling sounds.

The sound of this creature crawling was like the sound of a leaf being blown by the wind.

Fatty didn't have time to shine his flashlight on the shovel. He followed the sound and hit the shovel onto the ground. I didn't have time to observe the appearance of these multi-legged centipedes, so I took the shovel and helped Fatty get it.

We had thought that when the two shovel advance together, they would definitely turn the disgusting Black Killer into meat paste.

However, unexpectedly, when the shovel smacked down on the multi-legged centipede's body, it was as though it had smacked onto a rock, causing our hands to go numb from the impact.

It was only then that I could clearly see what the object in front of me looked like. This was the kind of black centipede that rural summer used to be, but in some ways it was different from the black centipede. Their bodies were coming in piece by piece, and the thick carapace on their backs made them look like a high-speed iron train.

Moreover, this place had many things growing on it. With its dense body and every movement, it was like layers upon layers of waves, making it look extremely disgusting.

Especially the first two tentacles, they were like two sharp detectors, slicing everything they passed into pieces!

What do we do? This is simply a lump of iron! Fatty scolded.

Be careful, this thing's tentacles seem to exude a strong corrosive acid. Zhang Sanpao saw me and Fatty curiously looking at the multi-legged centipede in front of us, immediately reminded us not to be careless.

That's right, these antennae are like scissors, no wonder they can drill through so many transparent holes. I never thought that the legendary Baritu would be this kind of strange centipede. If I knew Master Fatty was like this, I would've brought a nest of roosters with me." Wu Tie said.

Everyone, please don't let Baritu carry these. I said warily.

Seeing that I was too nervous, Fatty lightly smiled, patted my shoulder and said: Don't worry Little Dingdang! This thing didn't seem to be very powerful. This tomb was dark without any daylight. They had lived in this place for thousands of years, so their eyesight must have long since declined. As long as we avoid their two tentacles, I believe they won't be able to threaten us at all.

Are you sure? I asked doubtfully.

However, what Fatty said wasn't unreasonable. Animals evolve according to their surroundings. For example, before the founding of the village, the living in the countryside were all fat and fat big rats. As the four evils were destroyed, the consciousness of the rural rats increased, and those big rats gradually evolved into small, nimble mice.

These Baritu had been living in the dark and eerie tomb for thousands of years.

Don't worry. If it doesn't work out, I will still make another move! Fatty said proudly.

When Fatty saw that the centipedes had already crawled over, he was still gasping for breath. He was so angry that he wanted to smash Fatty to death with a shovel: Die, Fatty. If you have anything to say, can you finish it in one breath?

Fatty rolled his eyes at me in disdain: Little Dingdang, don't you understand? When Chairman Mao had called for the eradication of the Four Devils, the countryside had summed up a set of methods to deal with the centipedes, which feared quicklime and sulphur the most. If you can't take it, sprinkle some sulphur and lime powder on your body. Master Fatty, I can guarantee that this thing will walk around you.

That's true. I knew that ghoul, like Zhang Sanpao, would definitely carry sulfur lime and other small things with him, so I immediately shouted at Zhang Sanpao.

However, I didn't expect Zhang Sanpao to have a difficult expression. He told me that the bag containing sulfur is in Wang Yuanchao's hands.

Fatty and I were so anxious that we felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured over us!

CHAPTER 202 - ZONGZI

A few Baritu took the chance to climb onto the shovel between Fatty and me. Of course, we didn't dare to let this thing get close to us.

Although Baritu was very hard to deal with, it was fortunate that there were not many of them and only one Sarcophagus was opened.

Just when I thought that I could escape from this place by a fluke, the surrounding walls suddenly shook.

Before we could understand what was going on, the entire rock wall started to fall apart, and a large number of Sarcophagus began to roll out from the wall!

As more and more Sarcophagus rolled and smashed into pieces on the ground, more and more Baritu woke up from his deep slumber and climbed out of the Sarcophagus.

Seeing this situation, Fatty and I were scared silly. Just a moment ago, Baritu was still lucky enough to have a small number of people. Who would have thought that we would be quickly surrounded by this thing in the blink of an eye.

Zhang Sanpao was the first to realize that there was a problem. He shouted: Not good, someone is doing something in the dark!

Zhang Sanpao's words were like a thunderbolt out of the blue, hitting us all in an attempt to make us quiver!

This was because we suddenly recalled the black shadow that the flashlight had illuminated when we passed by the cableway on the cliff, as well as the Sun Divine Bird that had suddenly become berserk.

Could it be that the person hiding in the dark is setting us up again?

At this moment, the situation is already extremely urgent. The escape routes in front and behind us have been blocked by the fallen rocks, so we can't clean them off any time soon. Those dark black Baritu instantly surrounded the five of us.

Fatty clenched his teeth, pulled out his gun and shouted, F * ck! Even if it's the death of Master Fatty, he would drag them down with him.

Just then, someone shouted from outside, Get down, all of you get down!

Wang Yuanchao, it's Wang Yuanchao!

Hearing Wang Yuanchao's unique soldier voice, Fatty was overjoyed.

Quick, get down, all of you get down. Before we could ask anything else, we heard Wang Yuanchao yell at us again.

Grandfather pushed us to the ground. Protect our heads. It seems like he's going to blow up the rocks blocking the way …

After grandfather's reminder, I realized that the only way to escape was to blow up the road. I immediately put my hands on my head and kneeled on the ground with everyone else.

Fatty put his backpack and all of the shovel in front of him. He did not forget to shout at Wang Yuanchao: Brother Yuanchao, you better know how much explosives you need. Don't blow us away.

Crow's beak! I kicked Fatty in anger.

At the same time, he heard a loud noise in front of him. The dark space was illuminated by the dazzling firelight, and only the buzzing sound of the explosion was left in his ears.

And then, a large amount of dust began to fill the air.

Fortunately, we all covered our mouths and noses before, and after the dust cleared, we quickly checked everyone's situation. Fortunately, no one was injured, only Fatty was hit on the back by a few stones due to his fat body.

In front of us, a small path has already been blasted open. I immediately told everyone to rush out.

At this moment, Wang Yuanchao was laying the lead wire to prepare for the next round of explosions. From the looks of it, he wanted to block this place.

Before Wang Yuanchao could make a move, Zhang Sanpao said, Don't rush to use the explosives.

Wang Yuanchao was stunned.

Save us for later. Otherwise, if we run into any other damned thing, we won't have a single trump card left … Zhang Sanpao explained.

Don't worry, I just made it with a detonator. Wang Yuanchao smiled.

Are the sulphur and quicklime still in the backpack? Zhang Sanpao didn't have the time to wonder how good Wang Yuanchao's manufacturing methods were as he eagerly asked.

Yes, it's all in my bag. Although Wang Yuanchao didn't see Baritu, he knew that Zhang Sanpao wasn't a person who didn't care for nothing. He immediately took out a sealed plastic bag from his backpack.

Everyone, come and help! Sprinkle the lime powder on the way here. Zhang Sanpao said.

My grandfather, Uncle Ming, and I immediately opened the bags of sulfur and lime powder, carefully sprinkling a line of isolation on the ground. After that, he also scattered some powder on each of them to prevent Baritu's upper body from drilling us into a sieve.

After everything was done, Baritu's numbers decreased a lot. Although he was still coveting us, he still twisted his body and walked around the white line, not daring to touch it.

Damn, what Xin Sun Steel said isn't wrong, right? The five poisons are really afraid of sulphur and lime. I wonder if those big dumplings in the coffin are afraid? Fatty saw that Zhang Sanpao seemed to be thinking about something, so he asked, Hey, Big Brother Cannon, did you guys, ghoul, use sulfur to deal with the dumplings?

I'm only afraid of black donkey hooves and black dog blood. Zhang Sanpao answered.

Forget it, I don't care. It's fine as long as I managed to escape with my life. Fatty wiped his sweat away with a smile.

When I saw Fatty giggling, I couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

Seeing my frown, my grandfather immediately patted my head benevolently. My good grandson, don't worry! Fourth Girl is extremely powerful and we cannot compare to him. Furthermore, since he has come here before, he should be able to deal with those Baritu's attacks, so there's no need to worry for him.

Baritu, what Baritu? Wang Yuanchao asked.

Fatty quickly pointed at the multi-legged centipedes that were squirming outside the white line and said, It's these dark and unassuming centipedes. Luckily, Master Fatty encountered this once in the past in Ba Shu, otherwise, I would have fallen for it.

No wonder you wanted sulfur and lime. Wang Yuanchao nodded and said, In the past, when we were fighting a counterattack against Vietnam, we scouts needed to hide in the mountains and forests every day to ambush the Vietnamese. Who was not then crawling with centipedes and leeches? is to rely on powdered lime for self-defense.

That's right! It's a pity that both the sulphur and the lime powder were left in your bag, otherwise you wouldn't have lost a foreigner.

The outsider is dead? Hearing Fatty's words, Wang Yuanchao seemed to have thought of something and his expression instantly became tense and unsightly.

One died, I don't know where the other one ran off to, he probably got killed by Baritu too … Fatty sighed.

Zhang Sanpao saw that Fatty was talking endlessly, so he said to Wu Tie, Alright, let's not talk here anymore, it's more important for us to leave this place quickly. Don't forget that the corpses in the Sarcophagus have not acted up yet.

What do you mean? Wang Yuanchao asked.

It's those corpses that have been dead for so many years and their hearts are still beating! Damn it, they must be dumplings! Master Fatty swore that he would never eat dumplings in his life after he left the sect. " Fatty complained as he packed his backpack on the ground.

CHAPTER 203 - VAMPIRE

Wang Yuanchao was confused by Fatty's words and hurriedly asked me what was going on.

Thus, I told Wang Yuanchao in detail about how the rock wall collapsed and how the Sarcophagus rolled out.

After Wang Yuanchao heard this, his face turned ugly, Are you saying that these Baritu were deliberately let out?

I nodded. It should be, but I'm not sure how the other party used it to completely destroy the walls on both sides.

What else can we do? It must be the hidden traps behind all these walls. We have all fallen into their trap, and they want to catch us all in one fell swoop. " Fatty said.

That's impossible. Wang Yuanchao muttered.

What's impossible?

I suddenly realized that something was wrong with Wang Yuanchao. The impression he gave me was that of a straightforward man.

Furthermore, from the start to the end, Wang Yuanchao's words weren't on the same level as ours. Instead, he was paying more attention to the person who secretly attacked them. Suddenly, I felt like he was hiding something, so I asked, Brother Yuanchao, do you know something?

Before I could finish my question, I suddenly felt my body heat up and my pockets mysteriously start burning.

Seeing that my body was suddenly lit up in flames, Fatty immediately jumped far away and scolded me, Lee Dingdang, what the f * ck happened to you? You know we're covered in sulfur, but you still dare to play with fire? Do you want to burn everyone?

I was completely confused by Fatty's scolding, but was immediately thrown to the ground by Wang Yuanchao. After a few rounds on the ground, the fire was finally extinguished.

Before we could figure out what was going on, the place where the quicklime and sulphur powder had just been sprinkled suddenly began to burn like a fuse.

The corpses that were lying in the Sarcophagus were also set on fire. If the incense oil lamp in the temple was used, crackling sounds would be heard, and sparks would be heard in the darkness.

Wang Yuanchao stood up, looked around at the fire and said, Not good, someone set a fire.

Fatty was so anxious that he jumped up and down. He carried his backpack and headed to a place where there was no fire. What the f * ck! Which bastard actually wants to burn us to death?

Seeing the entire cave being set ablaze for no reason, everyone immediately realized that the danger isn't over yet. Those Baritu are just appetizers. The real threat to us is the person hiding in the dark!

And this man has already killed us twice.

The first time, he angered the Sun Divine Bird when we were all standing on the metal chain bridge. The second time, he broke these Sarcophagus and released the sleeping Baritu to surround us.

While we were desperately escaping this calamity, he had once again secretly ignited the sulphur powder we sprinkled all around us!

Damn it, even if it's the blood feud of killing his entire family, you don't have to be so cruel to us, right?

Seeing everything around us turn into a sea of fire, our hearts turned cold.

Due to Baritu's threat, everyone was more or less sprinkled with sulphur powder. If they were to be touched by the fire at this moment, they would be burnt to death almost every minute.

The only thing we can rejoice of right now is that we are in an ancient tomb, the concentration of oxygen in this ancient tomb is not high enough, otherwise, facing such a huge fire, there is a high possibility that it will explode!

There's a water path ahead. Everyone, don't panic. Follow me and charge ahead! At this critical moment, his grandfather calmly began to direct the operation.

Hearing his grandfather say that there was a waterway ahead, they couldn't care less and all followed him like a swarm of bees.

That fire almost burnt my shirt. If Wang Yuanchao hadn't pulled me down and torn off my clothes in time, I would have been disfigured by now.

Wang Yuanchao and I didn't have time to deal with the burns on our bodies as the fire hadn't completely spread over. We chased after grandpa.

Fatty originally wanted to tell us to hurry up when he saw that Wang Yuanchao and I had fallen behind, but he seemed to have suddenly discovered something. He raised his gun and fired without saying a word.

Seeing Fatty open fire at such a close distance, Fatty was so scared that he didn't dare to move at all.

After hearing the dull sound of impact coming from behind him, he held his head and ran forward. He could not help but scold Fatty: Die, Fatty! Do you f * cking think I didn't die fast enough or what?

Fatty didn't waste his breath and just turned around to let us pass.

He then continuously pulled the trigger, and only after he had fired all the bullets in the magazine did he heave a sigh of relief and said, Damn it! If I didn't shoot in time, you and Wang Yuanchao's life would have been gone. You can go back and take a look yourself!

Hearing Fatty's reminder, I immediately looked behind me. With that look, my heart leaped into my throat once again.

At some point, Baritu, who had retreated back, crossed the circle of fire again and began to rush towards us like a black ocean.

Although we just sprinkled the sulfur powder, but the sulfur powder has been completely burnt, losing its potency, and can no longer restrain Baritu.

And these Baritu didn't seem to be afraid of the fire, but started to get restless instead.

I immediately shouted: Not good, Baritu is coming over again.

Fatty also scolded, Damn it, isn't this thing afraid of fire? I remember bugs are afraid of fire? How can the things Yu Da raised in the tomb be so evil? Are we not going to play with them?"

I ran forward while shooting at Baritu, who was rushing over from Fatty and Wang Yuanchao. It must be that person behind him again!

That's right! This inconsiderate son of a b * tch, I, Master Fatty, will destroy him on behalf of the Party and the people.

The grandfather in front saw that Fatty and I were up to no good and even had the time to talk nonsense at such a crucial moment, so he immediately turned his head towards us and reminded us: Dingdang, hurry up and follow us, don't fall behind! The person hiding in the dark is very troublesome. The person who just died was not killed by Baritu at all.

Fatty and I were stunned when we heard grandpa's words. We didn't understand what was going on.

What do you mean? Wasn't that foreigner bitten to death by Baritu?

That's right, he was stabbed by countless Baritu. However, Baritu likes to torture people, so it's impossible for him to kill them so quickly. Otherwise, they will lose their interest. My grandfather said, So I observed carefully and finally found a tooth mark on my neck. That tooth mark was deep enough to reach the arteries. It was obvious that my entire body's blood had been sucked dry by someone earlier. If you don't believe me, go and ask Zhang Sanpao. I believe he would have discovered this long ago …"

I immediately asked Zhang Sanpao, is what grandpa said true?

It was unknown if it was because his grandpa had exposed the truth, but Zhang Sanpao's expression was a little ugly: The old man is right, that foreigner was indeed sucked dry of his blood by something.

I originally wanted to scold Zhang Sanpao for lying, but before I could say anything, I immediately understood Zhang Sanpao's motive for doing so.

We didn't want to alert the enemy, so we hid the real cause of death from the outsider.

After hearing Zhang Sanpao's explanation, Wu Tie was so angry that he cursed loudly, F * ck your grandmother! Even if you didn't alert us, we would still be fooled by each other. If you had, we would have been prepared.

What's the use of saying all this now? Quick, follow me. The waterway is just ahead." Grandfather quickly pointed.

CHAPTER 204 - THE FOURTH LADY SUCKS BLOOD!

While we were talking, the few of us ran out of the sea of fire.

However, the danger was not solved because of this, because the fire just now had burnt all the bodies of the Sarcophagus. The entire dark cave was filled with fire!

As we retreated, Baritu followed us wave after wave. He was afraid that the person behind him would set fire again, so we didn't dare to sprinkle sulfur powder. We could only use assault rifles and shovel s to deal with it.

There are too many Baritu's, and we have to be careful against their sharp antennae. It's very troublesome to deal with them!

I've been running for a long time and haven't seen the waterway my grandfather spoke of, so I asked worriedly, Grandfather, could it be that this tomb has been modified by someone?

Pappy shook his head and said no.

Fatty thought his grandpa was trying to comfort us, so he said: Old Master, don't comfort us, just say it directly. Master Fatty still has some endurance in his heart.

His grandfather explained, We were in a hurry earlier, so we took a detour.

Upon hearing this, Fatty heaved a sigh of relief. He was especially against Baritu who stood up.

However, this place is densely packed with Sarcophagus. It is simply Baritu's paradise, we will encounter a large number of these disgusting black centipedes almost every part of the way.

The bullets in his hands were almost all gone, and in the end, he could only bear it on the shovel. Fatty saw that he could not do anything, so he shouted towards Wang Yuanchao:

Brother Yuanchao, Lime, Lime Powder! F * ck, Master Fatty is confused. Sulfur powder can't be used, but we can use lime powder.

I originally wanted to scold Fatty for being brainless, but when I heard Fatty mention lime powder, I was stunned. Who would have thought that Fatty's brain would be so sharp at such a critical moment? Sulfur powder would ignite upon contact with fire, but lime powder did not, hence he immediately went to get the powder from Wang Yuanchao.

When Uncle Ming saw that we were going to get the powder, he immediately reminded me and Wang Yuanchao: Remember to wear gloves!

I know that Uncle Ming is afraid that if we touch the lime on our hands and get water, it will easily get hot from the water and burn our skin. He immediately put on the rubber gloves with Wang Yuanchao and carefully opened the last two bags of powdered stone. He let Fatty and the rest of the team leave first, while we stayed behind.

Although lime powder is not as effective against Baritu as sulfur powder, it really stopped a lot of Baritu and eased the pressure behind us.

After fighting while retreating, just when we were almost completely exhausted, we finally heard Fatty's cheers: Little Dingdang, I found the water path!

The moment Wang Yuanchao and I calmed down, another heart-wrenching scream came from the cave.

This sudden scream scared Wang Yuanchao and me. The two of us hurriedly looked towards the direction the sound came from.

At the same time, grandfather, Uncle Ming, Fatty and Zhang Sanpao, who had already run out, also heard the sound and immediately asked us what was going on?

I curiously replied, We're fine. I don't know who's voice it was.

As soon as his voice fell, the blazing flames in the surroundings were immediately extinguished, and the entire cave sunk into a deathly silence.

Looking at this scene, my heart tightened as a strong wave of unease surged through my heart. Large drops of sweat the size of soybeans dripped from my forehead.

Because I was afraid that there would be a big fire at the back of the hall, I handed the backpack to Fatty. Other than the shovel, Dagger and the Desert Eagle, he had nothing else on him.

He didn't have time to pay attention to the voice and immediately shouted to the others who were running away, Flashlight, quick, throw the flashlight over.

Pappy knew I was in trouble, so he threw the flashlight over.

But before I could receive it, I saw a figure darting through the darkness, and the flashlight went off somewhere.

This time, Wang Yuanchao and I are completely sure that someone is ambushing us in the dark!

Furthermore, this person might very well be the bastard that angered the Sun Divine Bird and released Baritu.

I immediately cleared my throat and shouted to my grandfather in the distance: Grandfather, bring the emergency lamp over, there's a glowing stick, it's best if you throw it over as well.

Hearing my increasingly urgent shouts, Grandfather in the distance didn't dare to hesitate at all and quickly threw out a few glowing rods. On the other hand, Fatty lit up the emergency lamp, but it was a pity that the brightness of the emergency lamp and the glowing rod were very limited, by the time the light reached us, there was only a little bit left.

Seeing this, his grandfather shouted: Dingdang, you stay where you are and don't move. Your grandfather will come and save you.

Wang Yuanchao quickly stopped him, Don't come over here, there's someone hiding in the darkness. Be careful of his backstabbing!

With that, Wang Yuanchao told me to run away with him behind his back.

Wang Yuanchao was, after all, a soldier who had fought before, and he had a lot of experience when facing enemies.

Because Wang Yuanchao and I became horns, in the process of escaping, we didn't run into any more trouble.

Just as I was about to exit the cave, I heard that scream again.

Save … Help me.

This voice was extremely weak, until the last word, it seemed to have lost all life.

I immediately wanted to turn around and see what exactly was doing this evil thing. However, Wang Yuanchao suddenly exerted his strength and forcefully pushed me out of the hole: Stop looking, let's go!

I originally retreated back to back with Wang Yuanchao, but ever since the scream, Wang Yuanchao had used his burly body to block my line of sight and forcefully pushed me forward.

Wang Yuanchao's abnormal action made me realize that there was a problem here!

Thus, he grabbed an opportunity, turned his body, and dodged Wang Yuanchao.

Wang Yuanchao obviously didn't expect me to turn around. His face revealed a shocked expression, and he even forgot to deal with Baritu who was in hot pursuit.

At the same time, Fatty took the opportunity to fire an illumination flare.

As the flare passed by, the entire cave was instantly illuminated.

I wanted to give Fatty a Like, but the moment I raised my head, it was as if I was struck by lightning.

In a dark corner of the cave, a person was hugging the neck of the foreigner who had gone missing, madly sucking blood.

Perhaps it was the light from the flares that stung the man's eyes. He loosened his teeth and looked in my direction.

His face was incredibly beautiful, revealing a trace of abnormal white. There was even a trace of blood on the corner of his mouth. There was not a single trace of human emotion in his deep eyes.

Looking at this familiar face, my eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. I stammered, Fourth … Four …

CHAPTER 205 - THERE'S SOMETHING IN THE WATER

I'm more worried about Fourth Girl's safety than anything else.

But I never expected to meet Fourth Girl in this way!

At this moment, I even forgot to escape from the cave. It wasn't until the flare slowly went out and the cave sunk into darkness again that I was forcefully pulled out by Wang Yuanchao.

When Fatty saw that Wang Yuanchao and I had finally escaped, he immediately asked what was going on inside? Who was it that wanted to kill us?

My mind was blank and I wasn't in the mood to listen to Fatty's words. I just sat on the floor and hugged my hair in a daze.

Everyone saw that my expression wasn't right, and knew that I shouldn't stay here for long, so they took me to the water route.

To put it bluntly, this water path was a tunnel leading downwards. It was unknown whether it was connected to the underground river or not, but the entire tunnel had been flooded by water. Under the light of the flashlight, the river emitted a black glow.

Zhang Sanpao caught the Luoyang spatula and looked into the water to test its depth. He found that it was at least one or two meters deep. We had to put on our diving suits and get ready to make a run for it.

As soon as he entered the water, he almost froze into ice. He didn't know why, but the ground water was especially cold, as if it had been frozen in the refrigerator. My head was originally muddled, but after being frozen by the ice water, I immediately became more clear-headed.

Seeing that my consciousness was getting better, Fatty asked what I saw just now.

I opened my mouth to tell Fatty that I had seen Fourth Girl, but for some reason, the words were stuck in my throat. He could only smile bitterly at Fatty.

Fatty has been with me for the longest time, I fart. He knows what it tastes like, so he instantly understood what I mean.

He patted my shoulder and said, It's fine, Dingdang. When you want to say it, it's not too late to tell me.

Grandfather and Uncle Ming also coughed and started to talk about other things. Obviously, they didn't want to embarrass me.

Seeing that everyone seemed to have reached a tacit understanding, he felt ashamed. He finally sighed and said, I saw Fourth Girl in the cave …

What? Fatty was stunned: Who did you say?

Fourth Girl. No, I said.

However, Fatty didn't believe me at all. He thought that I was scared senseless and wanted to continue asking. I immediately shouted out in anger, Are you f * cking done yet? Fourth Girl, it's Fourth Girl. Do you understand now? Those two foreigners were killed by Fourth Girl, he was not sick at all, he was the murderer, the murderer! From the start to the end, he was a murderer, he had never changed from ordering the Water Monkey to kill people to get their oil and drink their blood!

I'm usually very good-natured, and the chances of getting angry are like a comet hitting the earth.

So at this moment, this roar scared everyone present. Even my grandfather stared at me with widened eyes, as if he was trying to recognize me as his grandson.

However, I was on the verge of going berserk. I couldn't control the anger in my heart. Fourth Girl is the murderer. He is the one behind the scenes who harmed us!

Absolutely impossible. I didn't expect that Zhang Sanpao would be the first one to oppose me. His face was flushed red, as if he had a lot of things he wanted to say, If Fourth Girl wants to hurt us, you can just sit there and watch us fall into the abyss without moving. Why do you need to save us? If Fourth Girl wants to harm us, he can watch us get eaten up by the Ghost Face Taishang. Why did he want to stay behind alone to cut us off?

Who can say what kind of conspiracy is behind this? Remember what Ma Rulong said? I sneered and glanced at Zhang Sanpao: Ma Rulong said that without Fourth Girl and me, it would be impossible to solve the secret hidden in this tomb. So, he's not trying to save us. He's just not done using us up yet.

This … Zhang Sanpao didn't expect me to say that, so he was at a loss for words.

Fatty, who was at the side, scratched his head and asked: Dingdang, did you see it clearly? It's really Fourth Girl? Then why does he want to drink human blood?

I'm afraid you'll have to ask him yourself. I was a little disheartened. Recalling the process of Fourth Girl killing a group of foreigners and refining them into corpse oil in order to open the Sheep-head Giant Gate, I felt disgusted with Fourth Girl!

He was a butcher, a beast, a devil from hell.

The only thing I could do was to furiously shake my fist and slap the water surface, Why!? Why! Why did it have to be you."

Seeing my rage, I almost lost my mind.

Since they already knew Fourth Girl was the culprit, they stopped pursuing the matter and just paddled forward silently.

Only Fatty felt that if he didn't talk too much, I wouldn't have such a huge reaction. Thus, he continued to shamelessly follow behind me, afraid that something would happen to me.

Thankfully, the water in the tunnel was very cold, and the sudden surge of adrenaline quickly returned to normal. After seeing that I had finished venting, Fatty was ready to lead me to catch up with the group in front of us. However, after drawing a few meters of water, Fatty seemed to have seen something and took out his flashlight to shine in the water in fear.

I had just gotten out of the rage state, and my brain hadn't reacted yet.

By the time I reacted, Fatty had already plunged into the dark water with the flashlight in his mouth!

Fatty went into the water from taking out his flashlight. It was just a few seconds, I didn't have enough time to tell everyone.

Moments later, Fatty, who had dived into the water, surfaced with a boom and panted heavily. He stretched out his hand with an ugly expression and pointed at the water behind me. There's someone underwater.

After hearing Fatty's words, a wave of coldness instantly shot through my heart. However, I soon became furious again. I took out the shovel and smacked the water that Fatty pointed to. Come out, come out, Fourth Girl!

Seeing me suddenly go berserk, Fatty quickly said, It's not Fourth Girl.

Who is that?

At the same time, the commotion caused by us attracted the attention of Grandfather, Uncle Ming, Zhang Sanpao and the others who were rushing on our way.

They encircled the water area I hit, and under Fatty's instructions, they all uniformly dived into the water at the same time!

With this, he would not be able to escape even with wings!

Seeing that my grandfather and the rest had already dived into the water, I, who were eager to find out what this thing was, also swam over and tightly grasped the blurry object at the bottom of the water.

Speak, why did you harm us?

Just as I was about to go crazy, my grandfather suddenly surfaced and loudly said, Dingdang, quickly let go, this is not a person!

CHAPTER 206 - GIANT RACE

Not human? I froze in place.

That's right, this item should be the most common part of the ancient tomb: the terracotta soldier! Grandpa explained.

After saying that, everyone turned on the lighting in their hands. When the emergency lamp's strong light shone onto the water surface, we finally saw a stone servant that was as tall as a person lying under the water.

I suspect that it was due to the passage of time, coupled with the fact that the tomb was flooded with water, that the terracotta soldier that should have been used to accompany Yu Da in death was washed all the way here by the water current.

Plus the grave was more like a swimming pool, the light was dim and the river was dark, so we didn't notice it at first.

When Fatty saw the terracotta soldier, he immediately forgot about his unhappiness from before. A greedy smile appeared on his face. From what I see, this terracotta soldier is very exquisite, with a nose and eyes, not one bit inferior to Qin Shi Huang's terracotta soldier! If he got it, it would definitely sell for a good price. I'll say this first, I saw this first, according to the rules of the industry, first come first served. No one is allowed to snatch it from me, Master Fatty. "

Seeing that Fatty's evil intent did not die, he mocked: This servant has been in the water for more than a thousand years, if you move, it will probably be burnt to ashes. No one can take it away.

I don't care. I want this anyway.

Seeing Fatty play such a rascal, Zhang Sanpao said with a grave expression, I think, this isn't some lucky thing …

Nonsense, we are fighting against each other for a business that lacks morals. If you want to obtain good fortune, then come here! Fatty said indifferently.

That's not what Zhang Sanpao meant. At the same time, the experienced grandfather and Uncle Ming had already taken pictures of the emergency lamp from the servant's face all the way down his neck, This terracotta soldier is not made of stone.

Not made of stone? I was surprised. What was it made of to keep it under water for a thousand years without rotting?

Could this be a bronze artifact?

No, no, no. If it was bronze, it would have rusted a long time ago, but the surface of this thing is very smooth. Zhang Sanpao shook his head and looked at the tunnel carefully. He said in a deep voice, And I suspect that this wasn't a waterway at first.

What do you mean? I asked.

The waterproofing of the ancient tomb must have failed, which is why the water of the underground river has flooded this place. It is also only a few years ago. When Zhang Sanpao said this, he turned around and asked his grandpa: Old man, have you been here before? Was this place a waterway at that time?

The grandfather replied, I remember what you said. When I brought my fellow villagers here, the water had just flooded their knees, but now it's already one or two meters deep! It seems that the underground river is the reason behind the water's potential here.

When Fatty saw that they were all talking about the tomb, he was secretly delighted. He rolled his eyes and prepared to move the terracotta soldiers underwater.

As expected, this terracotta soldier was weak. With just a slight touch, Fatty broke off one of its arms.

Fatty was so angry that he cursed loudly: F * ck your mother, what the f * ck is this? Why is it all ruined?

Before Fatty finished his sentence, I noticed that there were a few white worms popping out of the arm in Fatty's hand. Although the bugs were small, they seemed to have their own radar system. They all stuck their heads out from their severed arms.

Looking at those densely packed white bugs that looked like they were cooked rice, I immediately scolded Fatty in disgust, Damn Fatty, quickly throw it away, there are bugs on top! Quickly throw it away!

At this moment, Fatty also saw those white bugs. Seeing that they were crawling more and more, Fatty threw them out of the waterway without saying a word.

I was afraid that the white bugs hidden in the terracotta soldiers might be poisoned, so I quickly called for everyone to leave.

After all, no one knew how many of these bugs were hidden among the humans and no one knew where they came from. In order to be safe, they had to leave this area as soon as possible.

As we went deeper into the waterway, we came across more and more terracotta soldiers, but none of them were intact.

From their position, Zhang Sanpao guessed correctly. These terracotta soldiers were probably washed here by the underground water. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been placed here like this.

After a while, the surface of the water started to become shallow, and the stone paths on both sides of the
