Entertainment Secrets: Playing the role of Qilin, Mimi loves it so much

Chapter 325: The Great General's Reputation and the History of the Acupoints

Ye Bai picked up the dagger and said, "The moment I pushed open the sarcophagus, I suddenly had a bad feeling, so I overturned it. Unfortunately, the skeleton disappeared."

"Does this dagger have any special meaning?" Meng Ziyi asked curiously.

"Just look at the words on the dagger and you'll know." Ye Bai pointed at the words on the dagger.

Meng Ziyi came over to take a look, and her expression became serious: "It's ancient seal script!"

Yang Mi took a closer look and her face suddenly changed: "It says 'Blood Sacrifice Dagger, whoever opens the tomb will die'. What does this mean? Are we in big trouble?" Her voice was obviously trembling and her eyes were full of fear.

Ye Bai frowned, his expression solemn: "It seems that the owner of this tomb doesn't want us to leave easily. This dagger must be the medium of some kind of curse."

Meng Ziyi hugged her arms in fear: "What should we do now? Are we really going to die here?"

Ye Bai took a deep breath and tried to calm himself. "Don't panic yet. We need to find a way to break this curse. Ancient seal characters sometimes have multiple meanings. Maybe this is just a tactic to scare people."

As he spoke, he took out the ancient book he had brought with him and began to search for records about the "Blood Sacrifice Dagger." Yang Mi and Meng Ziyi watched him nervously, not daring to breathe.

After a while, Ye Bai raised his head and said, "There are similar records in ancient books. This kind of curse is usually related to the resentment of the tomb owner. We need to find the source of the resentment, and perhaps we can lift the curse."

Yang Mi said anxiously, "Then where do we find the source of the resentment? This place is so big, and everywhere is so eerie."

Ye Bai looked at the surroundings and thought for a moment before saying, "Let's look around this stone platform to see if there are any special passages or markings."

The three of them began to search carefully around the stone platform. Suddenly, Meng Ziyi shouted, "Look, there's a secret compartment here!"

Ye Bai and Yang Mi hurried over. The secret compartment was small, and inside was a worn-out brocade bag. Ye Bai carefully picked up the brocade bag and opened it. Inside was a lock of hair and a yellowed piece of paper.

The note read: "My grievances must be paid with blood. Anyone who opens my grave will be damned to hell."

Yang Mi gasped: "This seems to be the tomb owner's resentment, but how can we eliminate it?"

Ye Bai took the hair and the note and examined them carefully: "This hair may be the key. Perhaps it has some connection with the tomb's owner. Let's look for any clues related to this hair."

They continued searching in the tomb and found a stone platform engraved with runes. There was a small hole on the stone platform, about the same size as a hair.

Ye Bai tried to insert his hair into the small hole. In an instant, the air around him seemed to solidify, and a low roar came from all directions.

"Oh no, we triggered something!" Yang Mi panicked.

Ye Bai shouted loudly: "Everyone be careful!"

They saw black smoke pouring out from the wall and rushing towards them quickly. In the smoke, there seemed to be countless painful human faces, rushing towards them with fangs and claws bared.

Meng Ziyi screamed in fear: "What the hell is this? Ye Bai, think of a solution quickly!"

Ye Bai quickly took out a few talismans from his backpack, muttered something, and threw them towards the smoke. The talismans burst into flames the moment they hit the smoke, temporarily blocking the smoke's attack.

"This is the resentment of the tomb owner. We must resolve this situation as soon as possible." Ye Bai said.

Yang Mi looked at the smoke that kept coming and quickly thought of a solution: "Ye Bai, you said that the hair is the key, so how about we destroy the hair?"

Ye Bai's eyes lit up: "It's worth a try!"

He took out a tinder and set the hair on fire. As the hair turned to ashes, the roaring around them became more intense, and the black smoke surged wildly, as if it was going to swallow them up.

"How could this happen?" Yang Mi shouted in horror.

Just when they thought they were about to be engulfed by the smoke, the smoke suddenly began to dissipate and the roaring sound gradually weakened.

"It seems we succeeded." Ye Bai breathed a sigh of relief.

Meng Ziyi patted her chest and said, "I was so scared. I thought we were really going to die here."

Yang Mi also wiped the cold sweat from her forehead: "It was really thrilling. I will never do such a thing again."

Ye Bai smiled and said, "Don't be too happy yet. We still have to find a way out."

They continued to explore the tomb and found a passage leading upwards. The passage was very narrow and only one person could pass through.

Ye Bai led the way, with Yang Mi and Meng Ziyi following behind. The passage was filled with a pungent smell, making it difficult to breathe.

"This smells so bad." Yang Mi complained.

Suddenly, Ye Bai stopped: "There is something ahead."

They walked forward cautiously and found that the passage was filled with bones, some of which were pierced with swords.

"It seems like a fierce battle took place here." Meng Ziyi said in a low voice.

Yang Mi trembled and said, "Are we also in danger?"

Ye Bai carefully observed the surroundings: "Everyone, be careful, don't touch these bones, there might be a trap."

They carefully walked around the bones and continued forward. After a while, the passage gradually opened up and a stone door appeared in front of them.

The stone gate is engraved with various patterns, including war scenes and sacrificial scenes.

Ye Bai walked forward and carefully studied the patterns on the stone door: "These patterns seem to tell a story, perhaps related to the history of this tomb."

Yang Mi asked curiously, "What's the story?"

Ye Bai pointed at the pattern and said, "It looks like the owner of this tomb was a general. He was betrayed by his own men during the war and died unjustly, which is why he has such a deep resentment."

Meng Ziyi sighed: "So that's how it is, that's too pitiful."

Ye Bai fumbled around the stone door and found several buttons. He pressed a few buttons according to the instructions on the stone door, and the stone door slowly opened.

Behind the door is a huge treasure house filled with gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings.

"Wow, so many treasures!" Yang Mi ran in excitedly.

Meng Ziyi was also stunned by the scene before her: "These things must be priceless."

Yang Mi no longer cared about the treasures and headed straight for the innermost part of the treasury. To the north of the treasury stood a two-meter-high stone tablet with two lines of words engraved on it.

Ye Bai walked to the stone tablet and read the contents carefully.

The text roughly translates to: "This mausoleum buries the name of Zhao Wugeng, who once led a vast army to conquer the world, commanding immense power. However, he was unexpectedly framed by treacherous officials and died with hatred in his heart."

"I swear hereby that if I ever regain my throne, I will slay the treacherous villains and avenge Zhao Wugeng!"
