Chapter 655: Playing the Pig to Eat the Tiger, Boss, You Know How to Play
The bronze coffin made a teeth-grinding friction sound, and cold sweat oozed from Ye Bai's palm as he held the peach wood sword.
The number of viewers in the live broadcast room is jumping wildly.
[Archaeology Professor Chen] Rewarded with 10 rockets: "Quickly retreat! This is the Taotie pattern unearthed in Sanxingdui."
"What was suppressed was an ancient evil creature!"
[Mountain Moving Taoist]: "The coffin fluid is dark green, indicating that the corpse poison has penetrated the bone marrow!"
[Donut Girl]: "Ahhh, little brother, run! That thing's fingers are moving!"
Before Ye Bai had time to take a closer look at the barrage of comments, the bronze coffin lid suddenly exploded into pieces.
A fishy wind blew in his face, and he instinctively rolled towards the stone pillar on the right.
The ground where he was standing was scratched by his sharp claws, leaving three deep marks with sparks flying everywhere.
"Is this a fucking zongzi?"
Ye Bai leaned against the stone wall, breathing heavily, and the camera was focused on the monster standing up from the coffin.
The corpse was more than two meters tall, with bluish-black skin visible under the rotten armor.
There were two blood jades embedded where the eyes should have been, and now they were flowing with sticky liquid.
[Mojin Xiaowei] rewards Deepwater Torpedo: "Blood Jade Corpse Raising! This is a secret witch burial method that can only be found in Chiyou's Tomb!"
The corpse suddenly opened its jaw, revealing seven rows of hooked fangs.
The rotting vocal cords made a roar like scraping metal.
Ye Bai felt a sharp pain in his eardrums, and the live broadcast equipment suddenly emitted sparks, and the screen began to shake violently.
"The signal is going to be cut off!"
Ye Bai pulled off the sports camera tied to his chest, picked up the black donkey hoof from his backpack and smashed it over.
The corpse's head bent back at a strange angle to avoid it.
The rotten palms slapped against the stone wall, and phosphorescence flashed in the falling dust.
[Physics Department Student Li]: "Pay attention to the air composition! Phosphorescence means the oxygen content is too high!"
As if to confirm this comment, blue flames suddenly rose from the four corners of the tomb.
Ye Bai saw in the shaking camera that the surface of the cold pond began to boil.
Countless white bones floated up from the bottom of the pool, forming into white arms that reached towards the shore.
"then!"
Suddenly a rope hook flew out from the tomb passage, and Ye Bai grabbed it instinctively.
A huge force from the other end of the rope pulled him out of danger.
The corpse's sharp claws scraped across the back of his neck, leaving a trail of blood.
A figure wearing a windbreaker rushed out of the thick fog.
The woman threw out a handful of cinnabar with her backhand, temporarily stopping the pursuit.
"Don't want to die?"
She pulled Ye Bai and ran towards the fork in the road.
"This is the corpse puppet refined by the Witch King. It must be sealed again with the Xirang Jade!"
A large number of new viewers suddenly flooded into the live broadcast room.
[National Cultural Heritage Administration]: "Please stop these destructive behaviors immediately!"
[Xiangxi Corpse Chaser] Rewards the Soul-Calming Bell: "At 12:30 pm, take the lamp oil from the southeast corner and wipe the blade!"
Ye Bai felt the golden jade in his pocket and found it was getting hot.
The bones in the pool suddenly turned around and rushed towards the corpse.
They scrambled to gnaw on the corpse, and the scene was extremely horrifying.
The woman turned her head and glared at him, then shouted, "If you continue to mess around, I'll throw you out to feed the devils!"
Ye Bai had no choice but to restrain his momentum and follow her in fleeing.
He knew very well that this world was very dangerous and he had to find a way to cure the poison as soon as possible to ensure the safety of himself and his girlfriend.
"Why do I hear a strange noise..." Ye Bai suddenly remembered something.
"Don't talk nonsense, I'll tell you later." The woman pulled him into the cave on the left.
This cave is narrower than the previous one.
The rock walls on both sides are covered with cracks cut by knives and axes, through which you can vaguely peek into the dark night outside.
The woman stuffed the dagger into Ye Bai's hands.
"Hold it to defend yourself."
"Why do you want me to hold a weapon?" Ye Bai asked with a frown.
"Who can guarantee that there are no hidden weapons in this damn place?"
The woman said this and left.
Ye Bai looked at her slender back, and a faint warmth rose in his heart.
He walked along the passage with a dagger in hand.
After walking for a long time, the passage became wider, but it was still cool and damp.
He walked lightly and slowly moved to the deepest part of the cave.
A long iron box was quietly placed in the middle of the cave, with a fist-sized luminous stone inlaid on top, emitting a faint and bright fluorescence.
Ye Bai squatted down to check and found that the lid of the box had been pried open and there was nothing inside.
"Such a magical treasure actually fell into the hands of that bastard."
He muttered a few words and glanced at the weeds on the ground.
There were a few red bloodstains in the grass.
Ye Bai bent down to pick it up and put it to his nose to smell it.
The blood tasted clear and sweet, with a faint sandalwood scent. It must be some kind of precious medicinal herb.
"No wonder it was used as a burial object..." His lips curved into an arc, "I'll keep this thing."
Ye Bai closed the box and put it into his backpack, then continued looking for the next valuable item.
When you reach a fork in the road, a fork appears ahead.
On the left is a dark tomb chamber, and on the right is a deep corridor.
At this time, the audience in the live broadcast room made suggestions one after another.
[Mojin Xiaowei] rewarded Deepwater Torpedo: "Anchor, which side do you choose?"
[National Cultural Heritage Administration]: "I suggest going to the left."
[Physics Department student Li] rewarded Deepwater Torpedo: "I support the right side!"
[Mojin Fu] Reward Deepwater Torpedo: "I support the right side too!"
Ye Bai hesitated for a moment and decided to go left.
Halfway through the journey, we came to a fork in the road.
"Fuck, it really is a maze..."
He was just worrying about it when the live broadcast screen flickered and the scene suddenly switched to a strange room.
"Welcome to my room!"
A chubby baby voice said with a grin.
Ye Bai looked around vigilantly and noticed that the room was not empty.
The walls, ceiling and top are covered with various antique calligraphy and paintings.
The most eye-catching thing is the desk, on which pens, ink, paper and inkstone are neatly placed. The tables, chairs and counters are all made of solid wood.
"Little brother, you need to pay to be my guest."
The baby voice came out again.
Ye Bai asked: "How much?"
"Fifty million."
The baby voice is not shy at all, and even looks forward to it.
Ye Bai: “…”
So cheating?
"I'm a little poor." Ye Bai declined politely.
"It's okay, I have a lot of things that I can't sell. We can talk about business-"
Ye Bai: “…”
He looked at the baby-faced girl in front of him, and suddenly an idea struck him. He asked, "Do you know how to break the curse?"
The baby-faced man blinked his eyes and said, "You don't understand witchcraft?"
Ye Bai shook his head.
"You are too young to understand."
Babyface spoke with pity.
"How about this, I'll teach you how to break the curse."
Ye Bai: “…”
He always felt that this baby voice had bad intentions.
Sure enough, the baby-faced man continued to coax her: "I'll teach you how to remove the curse. What's your name?"
"Ye Bai."
The baby-faced boy suddenly became excited: "I like your name. Would you like to be my disciple?"
Ye Bai: "...I don't want to."
Baby Face: "Oh... This world is so boring..."
"..."
Ye Bai didn't bother to pay attention to this guy and walked into the cave.
A faint red light emanates from the depths of the cave, making the cave walls sparkle and shine, making it seem as beautiful as a fairyland.
Ye Bai narrowed his eyes and looked around. The more he walked, the more surprised he became.
The layout here was very different from the tombs he had encountered before.
Every few steps, he would come to two forks in the road.
