Chapter 137 Underground Tomb



Chapter 137 Underground Tomb

Knowing the team's rules, Yao Qing sighed and said, "Alright, I'll get straight to the point. We've successfully entered the Ghost Realm, but we can't keep doing the same thing every time we go on, can we? What's the point of entering the Ghost Realm then?"

“I’m glad you have this awareness. Next time you have the chance, I’ll let you try it yourselves, but I’ll handle it today. It’s too cramped in here. Your strength could easily be trapped inside and killed without anyone being able to help.”

"..."

“If there are no problems, prepare to move out—” Liu Ren glanced at the others and made tactical arrangements, “I’ll go in first. We can’t see how far things will go in there, so one person will come in every three minutes. Liang Nian, Fang Qian, you two stay outside. Bing Yu, you come in last.”

"Yes."*5

After making the arrangements, Liu Ren turned around and crawled into the cave, which was one meter in diameter.

It's too narrow inside.

This tall guy, who is 1.8 meters tall, could only bend over and even squat to crawl inside the whole time.

Fortunately, after moving forward more than ten meters, the space inside did not become narrower.

Instead, it has become increasingly spacious.

After continuing forward for more than a minute, Liu Ren arrived at an underground passage.

The height of this passage is about 1.7 meters.

Although he still has to keep his head down, it's not as uncomfortable as before.

Liu Ren looked around and found that the walls of the passage were very neat.

It doesn't look like a hole that someone dug randomly.

"Could this really be a tomb?"

Liu Ren clicked his tongue.

Jiuhuang has many conglomerates and financial groups.

Therefore, many plots of land, including the underground structures, may be bought by a conglomerate.

If something is found buried underneath during subsequent development, it basically belongs to the company that leased the land.

Logically speaking, ancient tombs are state property.

But Jiuhuang has its own realities.

Most of the unearthed artifacts eventually become the private property of wealthy tycoons who have bet on the right things.

Realizing he might have stumbled into a tomb passage, Liu Ren decided not to go any further.

He contacted Liang Nian, who was outside, by phone and asked her to buy some candles and bring them over.

This is the easiest thing to obtain, and it can be used very easily to determine if there is a problem with the air in the underground tomb passage.

If the candle goes out, even Liu Ren would have to leave and let a professional handle it.

Soon, Yao Qing crawled in through the passage.

Yan Ling was behind her.

Since we arrived quite late, we also brought down the candles.

Liu Ren sent a message on his phone, telling the others not to come down yet.

Then he led the two of them deeper into the tomb passage.

"...There shouldn't be any traps or anything like that in here, right?" Yao Qing shone her flashlight around, repeatedly examining the details on the walls.

“Even if it existed, it should have expired long ago, right?” Yan Ling asked.

"Not necessarily. In some tombs, mechanisms can remain effective for hundreds of years. The simplest is to fill them with mercury, which is full of toxic gas," Yao Qing said.

"Mercury was a very expensive substance in ancient times, and it wasn't used in ordinary tombs. But this tomb seems to be quite unusual." Liu Ren observed the path ahead while keeping an eye on the candle in his hand.

There was plenty of oxygen, and the candle showed no abnormalities.

The three of them hadn't gone far when they arrived at a tomb chamber that was noticeably more spacious.

At the entrance, the stone slabs that were originally used to block the road were forcibly destroyed.

After observing for a while, Liu Ren realized that the tool used to damage the stone slab was probably not a modern instrument.

After all, modern equipment capable of producing such an effect simply cannot be brought down.

He also saw traces of something crawling around.

There are even holes of various sizes in the walls.

Each one is about half a meter in diameter.

Behind them were a series of narrow, secluded passages.

It seems to lead to a series of different, completely unknown places.

"...Something feels off." Yan Ling couldn't help but touch her arm.

The atmosphere here is strange.

The scene was also very strange.

She had a bad feeling.

“How can a place like a tomb, with its heavy yin energy, not be strange?” Yao Qing wasn’t so sensitive and followed Liu Ren into the tomb. “Don’t worry, anyway, if the corpse turned into a zombie and started jumping around, it would be because it was afraid of us.”

“Uh, it seems so…” Yan Ling scratched her cheek.

The three of them still look like normal people.

But he was no longer human.
