Uncle Jiu's Senior Brother

“These mutant eagle owls are probably descendants of grave-guarding animals, and they have developed unique habits over time.

As long as we don't disturb them, they won't attack us."

Lu Li explained to Chen Yulou.

Only after hearing this did Chen Yulou finally understand.

Hua Maguai wanted to ask what happened, but Chen Yulou saw that it was getting late, so he asked them all to go to rest.

Because Lu Li can use meditation to replace sleep.

So no one was hired to keep watch.

Anyway, he can sense any slight movement.

When it was bright, everyone woke up and found that the fire was still burning, but Lu Li was nowhere to be seen.

When I looked up, I found Lu Li standing on the top of a tree, looking at something forward.

With his hands behind his back, he stepped on a thin branch and faced the sunlight, looking like a god.

"Lu Li, what are you looking at up there?"

Chen Yulou shouted from below.

What depressed him the most was that after just one night, he found that he was emitting an unbearable stench.

You can see how humid this place is.

But Lu Li still looked so clean in the black and white Taoist robe he wore when he came.

We are all human beings, why is there such a big difference?

Lu Li jumped down from the tree when he heard the voice. "Everyone wake up, drink some water and eat some dry food, then hurry on your way. I will show you something."

“Still looking at things, can you not look at them?

It can’t be another big bird.”

Chen Yulou said with lingering fear.

"What big bird?"

Shi Shaojian asked curiously.

Lu Li then told them about the eagle owl.

Everyone was surprised to find that these birds had been following them for so long, but only Lu Li noticed it.

Shi Shaojian was very upset. He just took a break when he saw Lu Li was there, and was almost taken advantage of by a few beasts.

After a simple meal, everyone followed Lu Li.

Not far ahead, we saw two large banyan trees entwined together, forming a huge husband and wife tree.

This look is very uncomfortable.

Shi Shaojian's face immediately turned strange because he actually felt the presence of evil spirit in these two trees.

Lu Li walked forward, stroked the tree trunk, and then slapped it hard, causing one of the trees to break in half.

A coffin made of blood jade was revealed in the tree.

Everyone was in disbelief. Who could have imagined that there could be such a secret in this tree?

"This is a blood jade coffin. How did it get put into the tree?" Er Yuehong jumped onto the broken tree, reached out and touched the material of the coffin and asked in surprise.

Dragging the bloody coffin to the ground, Lu Li did not rush to open the coffin lid but said:

“This should be a companion tomb, where the loyal followers of King Xian are buried.

The tomb of King Xian is surrounded by water on all sides, a typical water dragon halo with excellent feng shui. However, this piece of mountain forest is a dead place in feng shui. Except for the accompanying tombs used for protection, who would be buried here?

And banyan trees attract ghosts and gods. If I’m not mistaken, the people inside have also been cursed.”

After hearing what Lu Li said, everyone stepped back a few steps and moved away from the coffin.

Lu Li was very skilled and brave and stepped forward to open the coffin lid.

I saw an ancient corpse wearing a pure gold mask and holding a dragon and tiger short staff in his hand floating above the red plasma.

It’s not as expected, a zongzi jumps out as soon as the coffin is opened.

Only then did Chen Yulou and the others step forward.

"Hey, is this dressed like a priest?"

Chen Yulou asked.

"good."

As soon as he finished speaking, several red flesh threads quickly stretched out from the coffin and wrapped around the people nearby.

Lu Li stretched out his hand and shot out a bolt of lightning into the coffin. Immediately, the flesh threads turned black and lost their vitality.

The ancient corpse also revealed its true appearance. Its upper body was still that of a human, but its lower body was actually a snake's tail.

"Snake."

Lu Li said with disgust, in his opinion these people were crazy.

The people accompanying him also showed expressions of disgust.

After seeing that there was nothing else or any clues in the coffin, Lu Li asked Chen Yulou to put away the golden staff.

Everyone continued to walk towards the north. As for the golden mask, which had been soaked in such disgusting corpse fluid, Lu Li said that whoever wanted it could have it.

Finally, it was taken away by a hall master from Xiangling.

We came to a flat valley with two huge rocks standing at the entrance of the valley.

But there was not even the sound of insects or birds in the valley; it was extremely quiet and eerie.

Looking at this place, Lu Li then thought of something and looked at Chen Yulou with a smile.

This is where the fate of the Xiangling lineage took a turning point.

"Lu Li, why are you looking at me like that? Let's go."

Chen Yulou looked at his clothes and found nothing wrong with them.

Everyone also looked at Lu Li and waited for his next move.

Lu Li knew that this was the last level, so he said:

“Through here is the Tomb of King Xian, we’re almost there.

Let’s take a break now. Drink water if you need to, and eat something if you are hungry.

You must conserve your energy.”

Everyone looked relieved when they heard Lu Li say this.

Isn't it just to enter the tomb of King Xian that we have gone through so many hardships?

Now it's finally here.

At this time, thick fog rose in the valley ahead and soon completely covered the valley.

But what’s strange is that the fog dissipates directly when it reaches the valley entrance.

Lu Li also had to admire the people who set up the Tomb of King Xian in ancient times. They were really thoughtful.

They can also set up such ingenious mechanisms to stop tomb robbers.

"Is this miasma?"

Shi Shaojian said after a moment, and everyone recognized that this was indeed the miasma that made all the tomb robbers turn pale with fear.

How many people died on this.

There's no rush to run.

"Master Lu, we don't have any equipment to protect ourselves from this."

Hua Maguai said anxiously.

"Don't worry, I have prepared everything. Just eat and drink your fill."

Shi Shaojian was not worried. He had used the obstacle-avoiding talisman given by Lu Li, and that thing was very effective against miasma.

After hearing what Lu Li said, Chen Yulou continued to eat. He knew that Lu Li was not the kind of person who would talk nonsense.

Soon, the southwest wind started to blow, and Er Yuehong and the others all watched excitedly as the miasma was blown away by the wind.

"Master Lu, can we enter the valley now?"

"This gust of wind can only blow away the miasma for a while. When the miasma appears again, we will be trapped in the center of the valley.

Have you all had a good rest?"

Everyone nodded.

Lu Li took out a stack of yellow talismans slowly and gave one to each person.

Looking at the talisman, everyone was a little confused.

"Stick the talisman to your body and don't drop it. With this talisman, you will be safe in the miasma."

After saying that, Lu Li took the lead and entered the valley.

Shi Shaojian stuck the talisman to his chest and followed.

Seeing this, Chen Yulou and the others followed suit, sticking talismans on their chests and chasing after them.

Sure enough, a few minutes later the miasma started to rise again, and the group was a little scared at first.

But they found that the miasma was just like ordinary water mist and had no effect on them at all.

Then calm down.

"Master Lu, I didn't expect you to have such a good thing."

Chen Yulou walked slowly beside Lu Li, waving a folding fan, like a young master out for shopping.

"If I don't have some skills, how can I save this game? I have to take you back the same way I brought you out."

Lu Li noticed that some stone sculptures began to appear in the valley, which looked like the style of the ancient Dian Kingdom.

"You are so domineering when you say this. Only you, Daoist Master Lu, can have such confidence."

Lu Li discovered that every time Chen Yulou came to flatter him or asked something of him, he would call him Taoist Lu.

Usually called Lu Li, this guy really uses people forward instead of backward.

After glancing at him, Lu Li turned away.

From time to time, there were corpses corroded by the miasma.

Judging from their clothes, most of them are Japanese.

There are also a small number of costumes of ethnic minorities from the Shenzhou Yunfu area.

Lu Li counted and found that there were no less than a hundred corpses so far.

I guess these are the people sent by Zi Luosha to explore the way.

When Zhang Qishan and Chen Yulou saw the miserable plight of these people, they also touched the talismans on their chests with their hands.

If I didn't have this thing, I would probably not be much better than these people.

Gradually, there were more and more stone carvings, and Lu Li knew that he was almost at the place he was looking for.

Sure enough, after walking for a while, a dilapidated mountain temple appeared within the range of his spiritual awareness.

"Hey! There's a temple here?"

After half a minute, Chen Yulou saw the mountain temple and said curiously.

"Here we are, this is it."

Lu Li pushed aside the weeds and walked in first, followed closely by the others.

As soon as they entered, everyone looked around curiously.

But there was nothing here except a statue.

Lu Li glanced at Chen Yulou and said, “Your eyes are saved this time.”

Then he stepped on the ground, and several toad stone pillars slowly rose up.

The stone pillars were arranged according to the pattern of the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams. Lu Li just stretched out his hand and turned them slightly.

"Boom!" a sound was heard.

A tunnel opens behind the statue.
