Chapter 940 The Grave Robbers' Chronicles 28
She looked at Xingchen and Ajin and said a few words: "After I go in, you two go out with the Xie family and find a place down the mountain to wait for me."
Going back alone would make it easy for someone to target you.
There must be quite a few people who want to learn her secrets through the people around them.
Although Xingchen and Ajin are unlikely to be able to get away with it, revealing too much of their abilities could still cause trouble.
“Yes, Miss, please be careful.” Ah Jin nodded, and Xingchen gave him a word of advice.
Xie Yuchen also spoke up: "I can help you settle them in. How long will it take you to come out?"
"I'm not sure yet, but I only told my family that it would be about half a month, so it's okay even if it goes on longer."
"As long as you have a plan, I hope you get out safely."
"Young Miss, take care," Hei Xiazi said.
He looked all smiles now, but his expression was quite serious.
Gu Wusi nodded casually: "Okay."
While they were talking, Wu Xie and his group had already noticed the nine-dragon coffin being carried by the corpse opposite the bronze door.
It was an octagonal coffin guarded by nine giant centipedes, and inside lay the King of Ten Thousand Slaves.
Above the coffin were the chains they had seen before coming down.
"Fatty Wang, what are you doing? Get down here!" Wu Xie's voice came from behind.
Everyone then realized that the fat man had climbed to the chain above the coffin and was trying to get down from the air to open it.
Just as he secured the rope and carefully slid down,
A human-faced owl suddenly appeared, grabbed his shoulder with its claws, and flew upwards.
Once they reached a certain height, they released the person, intending to drop them to their death.
"Ahhhhhh—" Fatty Wang shouted in mid-air as he fell.
Fortunately, just as he was about to fall into the coffin, the rope was pulled in time.
Gu Wusi and the others took a look and decided to head in that direction.
Soon, many more human-faced owls appeared in mid-air and headed towards the crowd on the ground.
Their faces are flat like human faces, their eyes are large and round, their pupils are amber or black, and their pupils glow in the dark.
Its wings are very large, allowing it to fly almost silently and accurately catch prey in the dark.
Once those sharp claws grab someone, it's hard for them to escape.
They like to grab people, fly them to high places and drop them to their deaths, or bite off people's throats.
"Everyone be careful, turn on the flares. These birds can't see us, but they are very sensitive to sound."
In times of crisis, obeying instructions can save your life.
Because everyone remained still, the human-faced owl's vision was obstructed, and they were all safe for the time being.
But the next moment, a noise suddenly came from inside the coffin, and it seemed that the King of Wannu was about to come out.
Just then, the flares ran out, and the human-faced owl began to attack everyone.
As soon as they catch someone, they fly into the air and then drop them down.
Gu Wusi took out his gun and shot a bird to death with one shot.
Xingchen and Ajin protected her on both sides, and the three of them's weapons were still a threat to the human-faced owl.
Gradually, the area around them became a safe zone.
When everyone noticed this, they all moved over here.
They will also shoot to rescue people who have been captured by man-faced owls.
Ah Ning was rescued as soon as she was arrested. She got up and decisively led her people closer to Gu Wusi and the other two.
Once the human-faced owls had mostly fled, the lid of the coffin was completely pried open by the contents inside.
A huge, mutated male corpse, unrecognizable as human, rose from within, clad in faded and rotting Jurchen armor.
Behind it are twelve human hands arranged in a ring, which can twist independently, resembling the Thousand-Hand Guanyin.
Its lower body, like that of a centipede, is covered with sharp, long legs, allowing it to glide silently when moving.
This is a case of a human coexisting with a giant centipede, resulting in a mutation that caused physical transformation, turning him into a complete monster.
Gu Wusi was about to step forward to deal with it when he saw Zhang Qiling, who hadn't appeared until now, standing in front of the King of Ten Thousand Slaves.
"You guys go first," he said to everyone as he turned around, then drew his sword and charged forward.
Seeing this, Gu Wusi knew he was alright.
He told everyone else to leave and headed straight for the bronze gate.
Ah Ning's people, as well as the people Wu Sansheng brought, left first.
Wu Xie and Xie Yuchen didn't plan to leave yet and decided to wait a little longer.
Gu Wusi ignored them; she still needed to make some preparations for entering the house later, since she didn't have the Ghost Seal on her.
After Wu Xie came down, he felt that the bronze door was different from the mechanisms in ordinary tombs.
He then advised, "Gu Wusi, who knows what dangers lie inside? Why don't you reconsider?"
Before Gu Wusi could answer.
Then everyone heard a deep horn sound coming from afar, and the ground began to tremble violently.
A chill and mist began to spread throughout the space, and the air instantly turned as cold as an ice cellar.
The next moment, they saw countless dark shadows lined up and suddenly appear in the distant rift valley.
Those dark figures were neither human nor inhuman; at least they must have been human in life.
Their bodies were like phantoms, not very clear, but you could see that their faces were extremely pale, so they were definitely not alive.
The aura of the underworld was so strong that everyone instinctively held their breath.
Gu Wusi had already concealed his living aura and even his body when they were attracted by the appearance of the ghost soldiers.
The sound of orderly footsteps and the clanging of weapons approached from afar.
The procession of ghostly soldiers advanced toward the now-opened bronze gate.
Wu Xie turned around and saw that Xiao Ge and Gu Wusi were gone.
The fat man felt a little creeped out, so he grabbed him and dragged him behind a huge rock.
Xie Yuchen and Hei Xiazi also led their men to hide.
Xingchen and Ajin had been standing there from the very beginning; they were the least curious about any of this.
As the ghostly soldiers approached, everyone realized that their bodies were twisted and that none of their feet touched the ground.
They all seemed to be floating in the air, but the sound of footsteps could be heard very clearly.
In the middle of the group, Zhang Qiling had somehow slipped in, still holding the Ghost Seal, and followed the main force into the Bronze Gate.
Wu Xie's eyes widened: "Little..."
The fat man quickly covered his mouth, not daring to let anyone make a sound.
Zhang Qiling saw them, gave them a subtle but somewhat mysterious smile, and continued walking without turning back.
Xie Yuchen and Hei Xiazi were looking for Gu Wusi, but they couldn't find him.
What they didn't see was that just before the bronze door closed, a transparent figure flashed inside.
After Gu Wusi entered the room, he found that although it was empty, he could still see clearly.
There was no resistance to her arrival here; she knew that this body was allowed to enter.
The moment she revealed herself, Zhang Qiling spotted her almost instantly.
