Wu Yu Saves the World

Chapter 168: Grave Robbers' Chronicles Qi Yu 50

Wu Xie threw this difficult question directly to Lao Yang, but Lao Yang acted innocent and clueless, indicating that he really knew nothing.

Tai Er was furious upon seeing this, and he suddenly drew out his long sword, pressing the sharp blade against Lao Yang's throat, threatening to force him to tell the truth.

At this tense moment, Master Liang hurriedly stepped forward to act as a peacemaker, persuading everyone not to fight among themselves.

After some persuasion, Tai Er finally put away the knife and let Lao Yang go.

At this moment, Wu Xie noticed that there seemed to be some blood on the tree trunk, and he couldn't help but feel puzzled.

He stared at the bright red marks and spoke thoughtfully.

"I once accidentally discovered a mysterious altar in another place. The murals inside detailed that the people of the She tribe regarded the bronze tree as a sacred object. They worshipped it as a god and offered it devoutly. And the blood groove on the bronze tree in front of us at this moment should be used for blood sacrifice!"

After saying these words, Wu Xie's gaze fell on Lao Yang again, as if waiting for him to give a reasonable explanation.

Suddenly, Wu Xie noticed that there was a hole in the glove he was wearing.

Just as he was about to reach out and touch the big tree, Lao Yang beside him hurriedly shouted to stop him.

"Don't touch it!"

At this time, Tai Er ignored Lao Yang's warning and talked to himself.

"There are more and more forks ahead. This road is really difficult to walk on."

Lao Yang disagreed after hearing this and retorted.

"The branches are sparse and dense. The denser the branches, the easier it is to climb up."

Master Liang expressed doubts about Lao Yang's statement, and mentioned that if it was really as easy to climb as he said, then why did Uncle Tai fall from it?

Lao Yang responded nonchalantly.

"Humph, he must have been pushed down because of a conflict among the family. And I bet that the treasure must be hidden in this tree!"

Before he finished speaking, Wu Xie couldn't help but turn around and stare at him.

At this moment, Lao Yang came up with an idea and suggested that everyone split up into two groups to carry out the action.

He originally wanted to team up with Wu Xie, but was threatened by Tai Er with a pistol.

In the end, they could only let Wu Xie and Tai Er go together to investigate the situation.

On the way, Tai Er curiously asked Wu Xie: "Where did Aning and her brother go?"

Wu Xie smiled and said, "Inn Seventeen."

"Inn Seventeen! No wonder the boss was so angry that he didn't even give us the order to go find Aning."

Tai Er looked at Wu Xie beside him thoughtfully.

At this moment, Lao Yang was leading Master Liang to find a way out. Somehow, his feet suddenly slipped and he lost his balance. He was about to fall. At this critical moment of life and death, Lao Yang was terrified and hurriedly asked Master Liang for help.

"Master Liang, save me!"

However, what Lao Yang never expected was that Master Liang took this opportunity to make an unreasonable request, asking him to tell the secret hidden behind the bronze tree.

Just when Lao Yang's life was hanging by a thread, at the critical moment, Wu Xie grabbed Lao Yang who was about to fall into the abyss and successfully rescued him.

After escaping the disaster, Lao Yang was still in shock, while Wu Xie focused his attention on the dead gorilla.

After careful observation, he was surprised to find that the mask on the gorilla's face was closely connected to the bronze tree, as if it was growing in the flesh.

What’s even more shocking is that the texture on the mask is exactly the same as the texture on the bronze tree!

Just as Wu Xie was lost in thought, Master Liang suddenly rushed over, knocked the mask in his hand away, and spoke loudly.

"As far as I know, the bronze tree worship activities in the Western Zhou Dynasty originated from the leader of a certain ethnic minority."

"The gorillas that attacked us just now were actually controlled by some kind of animal taming technique."

"This animal taming technique uses parasitic insects to control the nervous system of animals, driving them to attack foreign invaders."

At the same time, Fatty Wang was concentrating on thinking about the mysterious gorilla in the cemetery.

Driven by curiosity, he was full of questions about how gorillas breathe and eat.

At this moment, Zhang Qiling on the side quickly pulled up his mask and told Fatty Wang in a low voice.

"This is not an ordinary gorilla, but a Chi Gu! They live in symbiosis with animals in a parasitic way and can easily manipulate the nervous system of animals."

Upon hearing this, Fatty Wang was shocked, and then he realized that a large group of Chi insects had emerged around him.

At this moment, Wu Xie and his companions continued to follow Master Liang, listening to Master Liang's detailed explanation of Chi Gu while walking carefully along the way.

Master Liang kept reminding everyone that the poison of Chi Gu was difficult to cure and if one was unfortunately possessed by it, the consequences would be disastrous.

At this moment, Lao Yang suddenly rushed forward without hesitation, wanting to find out what was ahead.

Despite everyone's dissuasion, he still made an excuse that it was too dark ahead, and then resolutely fired a flare.

With the dazzling light from the flares, everyone was surprised to find that the surroundings were filled with densely packed Chi insects!

Faced with so many Chi insects, everyone couldn't help but feel frightened and began to worry about how to successfully pass this dangerous obstacle.

For a moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Wu Xie, hoping that he had a way to break the impasse.

Upon seeing this, Wu Xie carefully explored the surrounding environment, searching every corner with his sharp eyes.

After careful observation, he said affirmatively.

"There is definitely no Chi Gu on the cliff ahead!"

After hearing this, everyone felt a little relieved, but then fell into deep thought again.

Faced with the current predicament, Wu Xie is well aware that time is running out and he must find a way to escape the threat of Chi Gu as soon as possible.

His brows furrowed, and various possible solutions flashed through his mind.

Suddenly, a bold idea came to my mind: go to the opposite cliff!

This thought surprised everyone because it was not easy to reach the opposite cliff.

Wu Xie took a deep breath and said firmly.

"We have to take a risk to have a chance of survival. Although the road ahead is difficult, it is much better than sitting and waiting for death."

As he spoke, Wu Xie took out a rope from his bag. Tai Er recognized that the rope was provided by Gua Gua, so he asked Wu Xie where he got the rope.

Tai Er told Wu Xie that this rope was for use by special forces. It was very strong and durable and could bear the weight of the four of them.

However, at this moment, Wu Xie suddenly realized that the rope was far from long enough to reach the top of the mountain.

Faced with this dilemma, he suddenly had an idea and proposed to split the rope into sections.

Wu Xie did it right away. He quickly tied a bottle full of water to the top of the rope and threw it towards the cliff.
