Ye Chuyin and Qi Mofeng looked at each other and walked into the passage without hesitation.

As they went deeper, the air in the passage seemed to become older and heavier, filled with the sediment of time.

After a while, they came to a secret room.

There are no extra decorations here, only a quaint treasure chest placed in the center.

The treasure chest was engraved with strange symbols, and each symbol seemed to contain profound power.

Ye Chuyin carefully opened the treasure chest and saw an ancient book with a leather cover and gold edges lying inside.

She opened the ancient book and found that it contained countless records of ancient wisdom and lost skills. Every page seemed to be the revival of a piece of history.

There are many similar books in the box. These ancient books record the world's earliest pinhole imaging experiments and describe in detail how the ancients used this experiment to study and understand optical phenomena.

In addition, it also contains valuable knowledge about medicine, technology, philosophy, historical records, literary creation, astronomy and calendar, etc. (This is purely the author's nonsense, just for fun, please be merciful, don't delve into it, thank you!)

"This is more precious than any gem!"

Ye Chuyin's voice was filled with awe and excitement. The value of this ancient book far exceeded any treasure they had ever seen before.

Qi Mofeng was also deeply attracted by these books. He realized that these might be the things that had been guarded in this tomb for many years.

Without hesitation, the two decided to bring these ancient books back to the human world so that their wisdom could be passed on and applied again.

They carefully put away the ancient books and handed them all to Ye Chuyin to put into a separate storage talisman, then turned and left this secret room full of mystery and knowledge.

What suddenly appeared before the two of them was a narrow and gloomy passage.

The top of the passage seemed indestructible, and the surface was flat and smooth, not like a place where hidden weapons were hidden.

However, the scene underfoot was frightening. There were only a few scattered stone slabs suspended in the air, each of which could only accommodate half of a girl's foot, and the distances between them were frightening, far beyond the reach of ordinary people with a strong leap. It seemed like a trap set by an invisible ghost hand, challenging the courage and wisdom of those who passed by.

Under the stone slab was a bottomless black hole. The eerie cold wind howled, carrying with it a creepy sound, as if it could drag people into the endless abyss in the next second.

Ye Chuyin thought for just a moment before taking the first firm step.

She stepped easily onto the first stone slab, which was solid and immovable, as if mocking the unnecessary steps ahead.

However, just as Ye Chuyin stepped onto the second stone slab, the first stone slab seemed to be swallowed up by a silent force and fell into the dark abyss without any warning.

"Stand still where you are! I'll be back soon. I have a way to take you there with me!"

Ye Chuyin shouted to Qi Mofeng, her voice filled with unquestionable firmness and calmness.

Without waiting for Qi Mofeng to answer, her figure danced on the dangerous stone slabs like a light autumn leaf, and finally landed steadily on the opposite side.

As soon as she stood still, Ye Chuyin's beautiful eyes suddenly widened, and the scene before her almost made her heart stop beating.

I saw countless corpse worms emerging like a tide, like demons in the dark night, covering the sky and the earth, and attacking Qi Mofeng.

Those corpse worms seemed to be the embodiment of an ancient curse, ready to tear any invaders into pieces.

"Qi Mofeng!"

Her voice was urgent and full of concern, like an arrow piercing the silent air.

At the same moment she called out his name, her figure rose into the air again. Like an elegant and swift shadow, she tapped the stone walls on both sides of the passage for leverage.

The long whip in his hand was like a vivid giant snake, which suddenly sprang out and stretched to its limit, with the tip of the whip tightly wrapped around Qi Mofeng's waist.

She exerted her strength to pull back, and their bodies drew a half arc in the air and were about to meet.

Her heart beat faster and she cried out anxiously:

"Hold me now!"

Qi Mofeng also reacted extremely quickly. The moment they met in the air, he immediately wrapped his right arm around Ye Chuyin's slender waist.

Ye Chuyin caught the person in mid-air, and the long whip quickly bounced off the stone wall at multiple points, preventing the two from falling into the abyss.

As the two turned around, Ye Chuyin's left hand quickly stretched out, and the purple flame was like a wild tornado, engulfing the first wave of corpse worms that rushed over and burning them into nothingness.

She flexibly used the whip to gain leverage from the stone wall, and after several ups and downs, she finally brought Qi Mofeng safely to the other side of the passage.

Those corpse worms that came later could only fall into the abyss or crawl slowly along the stone wall, continuing to chase the backs of the two people.

Seeing the corpse worms continue to swarm towards them, Ye Chuyin hesitated:

Should we kill all the guardians of these tombs, or keep them to continue blocking invaders?

Before she could figure out how to have the best of both worlds, she had already forgotten about the ambiguous posture they were in at the moment.

Qi Mofeng had just experienced a dangerous situation, but he didn't feel like he had survived a disaster at all.

He still held Ye Chuyin's slender waist tightly, with no intention of letting go.

With soft and gentle eyes, he gazed at the person who was so close to him and whom he had been thinking about all the time. His nose greedily sniffed her unique body fragrance and he moved closer and closer.

At this moment, there was a rumbling sound of stone grinding behind the two of them, and the stone door behind them slowly opened.

Ye Chuyin was about to turn around when she realized that Qi Mofeng's hand was still on her waist.

"Have you hugged enough?"

Qi Mofeng was slightly startled when he heard the voice, and a barely perceptible blush flashed across his face, but he quickly regained his composure and said softly:

"Sorry, I...I was just a little worried that I would fall, and I forgot about it for a moment. Yinyin won't blame me, right?"

Ye Chuyin also showed a trace of discomfort on her face. She said calmly:

"It's safe now, you can let go!"

Qi Mofeng seemed not to have heard her words. He still held her waist tightly and whispered in her ear with a little coquettish tone:

"Don't let go! If it weren't for Yinyin, I would have been swallowed by the bug just now!"

The man's warm breath fell on Ye Chuyin's neck. Ye Chuyin's heartbeat quickened involuntarily. She struggled hard, trying to break free from the man's embrace, but failed.

"What are you doing?" There was a hint of anger in her tone.

Qi Mofeng lowered his head to look at her level, stared into her eyes, and said seriously:

"I just want to hold Yinyin like this forever..."

Before he finished speaking, a melody came from the passage.

"You, let go first!"

At this moment, Ye Chuyin not only felt her cheeks getting a little hot, but even the big hand holding her waist was frighteningly hot!

Qi Mofeng reluctantly let go of his hand and followed Ye Chuyin closely.

What appeared before the two people was a wide and long passage, which gave them a sense of traveling back in time as if they were entering an ancient imperial palace.

As the huge stone door slowly opened, gusts of cold wind from the unexplored land, mixed with the smell of antiquity and decay, blew directly into the face.

As the two of them went deeper, the soft melody gradually became clearer, as if there was a force guiding them forward.
