Next to the gate, there is a large hole in the wall, through which you can seem to see surging red mist.

There were blackened marks around the hole in the wall, and it was obvious that the hole was blown open by someone.

However, looking at the hole in the wall, it must have been left a long time ago.

Lin Liufu jumped off the snake's head, and Shen Kaichi followed closely with a gun drawn.

"It seems that this giant snake is the guardian beast guarding this tomb. If the wall hadn't been blown open, it would probably still be sleeping inside."

Lin Liufu grabbed the giant snake's tongue and said, "Follow us. Don't even think about slacking off."

Upon hearing this, the big snake spit out its tongue and crawled towards the hole in the wall first.

The two followed the big snake into the tomb.

As soon as they entered, the lights on both sides of the corridor of the ancient tomb were instantly lit up, and the dim light stretched the shadows of the two people and the snake very long.

On both sides of the corridor were piles of broken ceramic fragments, rusted weapons and human bones.

Shen Kaichi looked at the skeleton on the ground and said, "This is the military uniform of the Jingxue Kingdom!"

"Did these bastards blow up the hole in the wall? I remember when the Japanese invaders came to Linjiazhai, many villagers hid in the mountains. Rumor has it that a giant snake trapped the Japanese who came up the mountain to search for them. Judging from this rumor, this hole in the wall shouldn't have been blown up by them."

"No matter who blew it up, it happened in the past and it's hard to trace back. For now, the priority is to save the people. This ancient tomb is full of dangers, so be careful."

Lin Liufu's face was gloomy. He had been in the world of immortal cultivation for more than two hundred years. What kind of danger had he not experienced?

Since entering here, Shen Kaichi's body has been tense, for fear of accidentally stepping on a mechanism...

At this moment, the ground suddenly began to shake violently, small pieces of stone fell from above, and then screams were heard from afar...

Lin Liufu grabbed Shen Kaichi and jumped onto the big snake. He patted its head and told it to move forward quickly. The people inside didn't know what they had provoked, so they hoped it was still in time.

As they went deeper, the ground shook more and more violently.

"Big snake, hurry up."

Shen Kaichi took off his clothes and covered Lin Liufu's head with them, saying, "Be careful not to be hit by rocks."

The big snake led them straight to the most spacious tomb chamber. As soon as they entered, they saw a huge sarcophagus placed in the center, with intricate patterns carved on it.

Those patterns look a bit like...

Lin Liufu jumped off the giant snake and walked towards the sarcophagus. Seeing this, Shen Kaichi quickly jumped off the snake and chased after her.

Lin Liufu came to the sarcophagus. The intricate patterns carved on it were the sealing formation. Unfortunately, the patterns were destroyed and the formation was now useless.

At this moment, a low roar suddenly sounded in the tomb, and then the ground shook again. Countless tiny cracks appeared on the walls of the tomb, spreading around like spider webs.

"The tomb is about to collapse."

Shen Kaichi grabbed Lin Liufu's hand and tried to run out, but the way they came had disappeared at some point, so Shen Kaichi had to hold onto her and run forward.

The big snake spit out its tongue and followed them closely. The tomb could not collapse, but this scene looked familiar. Thinking of this, it raised its head and looked at the sarcophagus. A faint buzzing sound came from inside.

Mother.

How come those things are coming out?

The giant snake wrapped its tail around the two men and threw them onto its back, then swam deeper into the tomb.

Lin Liufu turned his head and saw a layer of black fog-like thing chasing towards them. Looking carefully, he realized that it was not fog at all, but countless flying insects.

She had seen this kind of flying insect in the world of cultivation before. It was the mother of the soul-eating insect.

They can sleep in the tomb for tens of millions of years. Once a living person comes in, they transform into flies that smell rotten meat and swarm in.

If the soul-eating insects want to reproduce, they need to find a host that can feed the larvae. Ordinary people can only serve as food, and only those who practice cultivation are their favorites.

Those queen insects were extremely fast. Shen Kaichi fired two shots at them, but the insect swarm miraculously dodged.

"These bugs actually know how to hide?"

Seeing this, Lin Liufu took out a small bottle from behind him and threw it at the bugs under Shen Kaichi's puzzled gaze. The bottle fell to the ground and shattered. The black mist that was originally chasing them madly suddenly seemed to be stopped by something, and then rushed madly towards the liquid scattered on the ground.

This gave the big snake the opportunity to leave.

"What kind of bugs are those?"

"A kind of poisonous insect that lives exclusively in ancient tombs. We saw it today."

Shen Kaichi thought for a moment, then suddenly realized.

"The mother of the black nematode?"

"Well, these bugs are very insidious. Now that the tomb's exit is blocked, we can only keep moving forward. I just hope we can leave here before dark. Tomorrow we have to go to the No Return Mountain."

The soul-eating insect mother can be burned to death with the red lotus karma fire, but the temperature of the karma fire is too high, and there are already a lot of foul air in the tomb, so it is easy to destroy the tomb. It must not be used unless it is absolutely necessary.

"Don't worry. This tomb is underground. If you can find an underground river and follow it, you might be able to get out."

"Well, let's go find someone first."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a group of people running out from somewhere at the end of the passage, screaming and slapping their bodies wildly.

"Go over and have a look."

At this moment, the big snake suddenly braked, and the passage not far away collapsed, revealing a bottomless pit. If the big snake had not had a keen sense of danger, the three of them would have fallen directly into the huge mouth of the abyss.

At this time, the tomb passage separated the people from both sides.

Seeing this, Lin Liufu glanced at Shen Kaichi and said, "I'll go over and take a look."

As she spoke, she took out a steel rope as thin as a hair from her pocket. She threw one end of the rope to the opposite side and embedded it firmly into the stone wall, while she tied the other end tightly around the stone pillar next to her.

She jumped onto the steel wire. Although the wire was thin, it had a good load-bearing capacity. Lin Liufu did not sag when he stood on it.

In just a few breaths, she had already reached the other side.

When those people saw Lin Liufu coming, they ran to her one by one. They had just noticed this female comrade. There was a bottomless abyss under the broken passage. The fact that she was safe and sound showed that she was very capable.

Who would have thought that they just came to investigate the damage to the ancient tomb, but were attacked by a giant snake, chased everywhere, and unknowingly lost their way in the tomb.

Lin Liufu looked at the black two-headed snake that was chasing him relentlessly. This thing was extremely poisonous and lived in groups. It was not even worthy of being ranked in the world of immortal cultivation, but here, it could easily poison and kill humans.

However, this ancient tomb is indeed weird. First, there is an unknown object sealed in the sarcophagus in the main tomb chamber, and then there is this black two-headed snake. Judging from these two things, the former Chinese country must have had a period of spiritual energy burst, otherwise these things would not appear.
