Listening to Wu Xie's words, Lao Yang spat in Wu Xie's direction, "Fuck you, brother!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Qiling kicked him.

Lao Yang, who was beaten by Wang Can and Zhang Qiling together, quickly changed his tone from cursing at the beginning, and begged for mercy continuously. In the end, he was almost silent.

Yuyan stood behind Wang Can and Zhang Qiling and watched Lao Yang being beaten with cold eyes.

She believed what Wang Can said from the first sentence. After all, she could feel that Lao Yang was targeting her intentionally or unintentionally along the way.

You think it will be much easier to deal with that stupid dog Wu Xie without you, right?

Yuyan even wanted to kill Lao Yang herself. With just a slight push, he would be torn to pieces, right?

but……

"stop."

Wang Can and Zhang Qiling turned to look at Yuyan, as if they couldn't believe that these two words came out of Yuyan's mouth.

Wu Xie and Lao Yang were also shocked.

I even wanted to kill her, there was no way she would let me go like this.

Moreover, no one would find out if she killed herself in this place, because these three people were on her side.

Yuyan walked up to Lao Yang and leaned over slightly to stare at his swollen eyes.

"There's still some use for him. After all, I haven't seen the so-called 'huge benefit' yet, right?"

When Lao Yang heard that he was still useful, he knew that Yuyan could not kill him, at least before that.

Anyway, it has been discovered. Just now, I saw that Wu Xie, that bastard, doesn't believe me anymore. So I might as well just throw in the towel.

Having figured it out, Lao Yang no longer concealed his feelings. He stared at Yuyan with his cruel eyes and laughed heartily: "Damn, you're really lucky. This didn't kill you!"

Wu Xie looked at Lao Yang with disbelief in his eyes.

It's one thing to speculate, but it's another to see it happen.

Lao Yang turned around and looked at Wu Xie with contempt in his eyes: "What? Who are you showing such disbelief to?"

"Didn't you guess it a long time ago? I asked you to help me just now, but you didn't move. Are you still acting like a brother?"

Lao Yang's heart-wrenching words bombarded Wu Xie like cannonballs, tearing apart the peace that had been pretended.

Seeing that the two men were becoming more and more excited and seemed to be about to fight again, Yuyan quickly stopped them.

In Lao Yang's condition, if he gets hit a couple more times he'll be useless and can be thrown away.

After taking off Lao Yang's socks and stuffing them into his mouth, Yuyan tied Lao Yang up again.

Then he asked them to take a break and climb to the top later.

During the break, Yuyan asked Zhang Qiling about the record of the bronze tree in the "Hemu Collection".

Zhang Qiling had only taken a brief look at it at first. After briefly explaining it, he pointed to the rock wall outside the cave and said, "There should be a section of plank road built for the emperor to visit."

When Yuyan heard that it was built for the emperor, she felt that this plank road was worth developing.

Things built for the emperor are usually made of solid materials and might be useful.

After a good rest, Yuyan called on everyone to climb up.

Because Lao Yang had been beaten so badly that he had little ability to move, Wang Can was left behind to watch over Lao Yang.

The plank road going up is indeed well preserved. It may be close to the ground, so there are many tree roots hanging down on the side.

The higher they went, the more tree roots there were. If Zhang Qiling hadn't been in front holding a dagger to clear the way, they wouldn't have been able to get through.

Wu Xie was quite accepting of the fact that Master Liang was Zhang Qiling. After all, with the previous experience of Baldy Zhang in the Xisha Sea Tomb, what else could be impossible?

After walking for more than an hour, Zhang Qiling, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped.

"It's broken in front, about ten meters, and you need a rope to get through."

Yuyan leaned down and said, "Oh my god, they just walked for an hour in vain?"

This doesn't feel that far away?

Yuyan asked Wu Xie and Zhang Qiling to rest on the side for a while, and she took a telescope and looked towards the top of the bronze tree.

At this place, you can vaguely see the top of the tree, but it is covered by many tree roots and cannot be seen clearly.

You can vaguely see a statue standing among a pile of tree roots.

Zhang Qiling walked over and pointed at the tree roots above and said, "Maybe we can get out from there later."

Yuyan nodded and turned to look at Wu Xie: "Have you rested well?"

Wu Xie has the weakest physical strength among the three of them, so we still have to ask him separately.

Wu Xie supported himself on his knees and stood up, making an "OK" gesture towards Yu Yan.

Then the three of them continued to climb up until they reached a plank road that was almost as high as the altar on the treetop, and only then did Yuyan stop.

He tied the dagger to the soul-catching lock and threw it directly into the pile of tree roots.

Yuyan pulled it to see if it was firm.

The tree roots shook as Yuyan moved, and many strange gray insects crawled out from the cracks in the roots and disappeared quickly.

The three of them paddled over quickly. After putting away the soul-catching lock, Yuyan turned around and looked at the pile of tree roots.

These should be banyan trees. Where the roots touch, they are tangled together and merge into one, while where they don't touch, they are hollowed out to form holes.

Yuyan took two flashlights and gave them to Wu Xie and Zhang Qiling. The three of them circled around the tree roots and searched every hole, but still found nothing.

Or in other words, the flashlight shines into the tree hole but cannot reach the bottom.

Annoyed Yuyan blew the fire stick directly.

He was held down by Wu Xie who was quick-eyed and quick-handed.

Yuyan was about to speak when Zhang Qiling next to her made a gesture to shut up and pulled the two of them down to squat.

Listening carefully, there were sounds of "de...de...de" coming from the tree roots, as if someone was grinding their teeth due to the cold.

It was very strange, the sound was very light, not like the sound of rice dumplings or insects crawling.

Yuyan listened carefully again, and suddenly her eyes lit up. She walked around to the other side, and as soon as the flashlight shone in, the sound disappeared.

It is almost certain that what they are looking for is in here.

Yuyan is a man of action. After discovering that the hole on this side could be entered, she simply ducked down and crawled in.

Because the branches are tangled and there is little space for people to move around, only one person can walk at a time.

As she walked, Yuyan saw a corner of a stone slab wrapped in a pile of tree roots.

Following the stone slab, I found a coffin.

This place should be the center of the altar.

Strangely, the lid and the body of the coffin were not tightly together, and tree roots had grown into them.

Yuyan felt strange and put the flashlight to the gap formed by the raised tree roots to look inside.

Unfortunately, it seemed to be completely empty inside, as if the light was absorbed, and nothing could be seen.

The strange smell at the tip of her nose and the carbon dioxide exhaled by the surrounding tree roots made Yuyan increasingly lack oxygen. It seemed that there was some special magnetic field inside the coffin, which made Yuyan very uncomfortable.

Just as Yuyan was about to leave to get some fresh air, the voice came again.

"The...the...the..."
