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

Chapter 426: The poisonous place needs a ruthless person to come

"do not know."

"Uh..." The fat man was obviously not expecting this. He was about to ask more questions, but Yang Mi glared at him fiercely, so he had to shut up.

Ye Bai squatted beside the stone platform and used a dagger to cut open the wooden board on it.

Soon, a cave entrance appeared in everyone's sight.

"Wow, there actually is a secret door!" The fat man jumped up and down excitedly and shouted, "I knew the owner of this place must have a private vault, otherwise why would he build such a mechanism?"

"You guys stay outside and I'll go down to check it out." Ye Bai said.

The fat man grabbed Ye Bai and said, "Brother Ye, I'll go down with you."

Ye Bai shook off the fat man and said, "This place is very treacherous and unpredictable. It's safer for me to go down alone. You stay here and take care of Yang Mi so she doesn't get into any danger."

The fat man hesitated for a moment and agreed.

Ye Bai jumped into the secret door underground.

This secret door extended downwards in a sloped manner. Ye Bai slowly climbed up the ladder. After about five or six seconds, he finally reached the end of the secret door.

"Click!" A bright bead came into Ye Bai's eyes.

The shape of the beads is somewhat similar to that of night-shining pearls, but the color is black.

Ye Bai picked up the bead and held it in his palm.

He discovered that the bead actually had temperature and could absorb the power of moonlight, filling the surrounding environment with hazy mist.

"What a strange bead! It can actually absorb moonlight." Ye Bai said in amazement: "If I embed the bead into my flashlight, wouldn't it be able to emit a beam of light and illuminate the entire tomb?"

He then tried it and found that it really could emit light.

This made Ye Bai ecstatic.

"This is a great treasure!" He happily put the flashlight in his pocket.

"Hey, Ye Bai, why is it so dark here?" Yang Mi's voice rang out.

Ye Bai looked in the direction of the sound and saw Yang Mi and Fatty standing in the corner of the tomb. They were warily surveying their surroundings and muttering, "This place is so weird! Who knows if any monsters will come out?"

The fat man nodded, agreeing with Yang Mi's words.

"What are you two thinking about?" Ye Bai shook his head helplessly and said, "Don't worry, as long as there are no powerful zombies or evil spirits that come out to cause trouble, everything will be fine."

"Really?"

Ye Bai patted his chest and assured: "Have I ever lied to you?"

The fat man and Yang Mi looked at each other and nodded in unison.

"In that case, let's go down." Ye Bai walked down with a flashlight in hand.

The fat man hurriedly grabbed Ye Bai and said, "Wait! It's so gloomy here. I have a feeling there's a ghost in this tomb! If you really run into something dirty, I'm afraid you won't be able to withstand it... Or I should go down."

"No need." Ye Bai said calmly, "Just a few zombies, nothing to worry about."

"You say it's easy, where do you get the confidence from?" The fat man rolled his eyes and said unyieldingly, "Anyway, you have to take me with you tonight!"

"Have you two had enough of your nonsense?" Yang Mi couldn't help but complain, "If we delay any longer, it will be dawn and we will miss the best time to rob the tomb."

"No matter what, I won't leave you for even a moment tonight," the fat man insisted. "It's scary here, but if the three of us unite, we might be able to defeat these little devils!"

Yang Mi sighed and shook her head helplessly: "Okay."

The three of them slowly descended along the stone steps.

After diving about fifty meters, the stone platform suddenly disappeared and a wide passage appeared in front of us.

The inside of the passage was pitch black, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you. You could only rely on the dim light of the flashlight to barely illuminate the way forward.

The fat man followed Ye Bai closely, looking like a mouse seeing a cat, and was afraid to move forward no matter what.

"Ye Bai..." the fat man trembled, "It's... it's too dark here."

Ye Bai stopped and said, "This place is sealed. There is very little oxygen in the air, so it is naturally very dark. Moreover, these walls are covered with poisonous insects, snakes, ants, and various venoms. If you make a mistake, you can easily be infected with corpse poison or even be poisoned."

"Are we just going to keep going like this?" the fat man hesitated.

"Hmm, do you have a better idea?" Ye Bai said, "You know, there's a coffin hidden in this tomb passage, and it's a thousand-year-old coffin. Are you sure you want to take the risk?"

The fat man shrank his neck and dared not say anything more.

The two followed Ye Bai and continued walking forward.

As we walked, the road ahead suddenly opened up.

This is a huge tomb chamber.

The walls of the tomb are painted with murals and patterns, which look very mysterious and solemn, and make people awe-inspiring.

"What a huge tomb!" Yang Mi exclaimed, "Is this the mausoleum of the Tang Dynasty emperor?"

"Well, it's about the scale of the Tang Dynasty." Ye Bai said.

The fat man took a closer look, then gasped and said, "Wow, what are these murals depicting?"

After seeing it clearly, Ye Bai couldn't help laughing: "Do those patterns look like centipedes?"

The fat man nodded: "It is indeed very similar."

Ye Bai said, "These murals record some of the sacrificial customs of the Tang Dynasty royal family, which are consistent with those recorded in other historical texts."

"What clues have you discovered?" Yang Mi asked.

"Nothing, just take it as a reference."

Ye Bai shrugged. "I guess this should be the tomb of a certain prince or noble. Because they needed to use centipedes as sacrifices during their sacrifices, so these murals depict centipedes."

Yang Mi frowned and said, "We are now inside the tomb chamber, how can we find the tomb passage?"

"No rush." ​​Ye Bai said, "Once we finish exploring, we'll know how to get out."

"That's fine."

The three of them slowly walked around the stone pillars and began to carefully observe this huge mausoleum.

This Tang Dynasty imperial tomb was built very luxuriously.

Every few meters, there are several oil lamps, emitting dim candlelight.

"The tomb chamber here is very large, estimated to occupy at least half the length of the entire tomb passage."

The fat man surveyed his surroundings and exclaimed in amazement, "The interior of the tomb passage is paved with blue bricks. It seems this Tang Dynasty emperor wanted to provide his descendants with a peaceful and prosperous living environment."

"I think the layout of the tomb interior is also very particular."

Ye Bai looked at the exquisite and elegant furnishings around him and said, "First of all, there are stone pillars. Each one is engraved with talismans. This is obviously to prevent tomb robbers from entering the tomb and destroying the cultural relics and mechanisms here, thereby damaging the burial objects."

"You know so much." The fat man said admiringly: "Then tell me, how should we get out?"

"It's very simple." Ye Bai said with a smile: "Just follow me."

The three followed Ye Bai, returned along the original route, and then walked to the center of the tomb passage.
