"what?"

Wang Haitao and Dong Rongjin were originally a little moved by the guilt they felt for the God of Fire, thinking that he had made him sleep for so many years just to punish him.

Hearing Su Chen's question, the two looked at each other with confusion in their eyes.

No, is there something hidden behind this?

Then the two looked at each other again.

its not right.

Even if there is a hidden secret, after so many years, the mountains are lush and green again. Why ask the reason?

"Does Master Su like to talk nonsense?"

Dong Rongjin shook his head.

Isn’t that it?

There must be something fishy going on, and it's very likely related to the God of Fire in front of us.

When the two looked at the God of Fire again, their eyes were full of vigilance and scrutiny.

This god is evil, right?

They both reacted, not to mention Zhang Qian.

He narrowed his eyes: "Isn't the meaning obvious?"

"Did you set that wildfire? Or did you guide your followers to do it?"

"I've always found it strange. You teach gunpowder magic. Even if you can become a god, how can you become a fire god? Was that forest fire meant to help you become a fire god?"

Before the Fire God could answer, he frowned again: "That's not right."

"Even if you are a god, you can't be so arrogant."

Wang Haitao nodded: "Yes, aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning by heaven if you do this?"

"unless……"

Several people looked at each other and said, "It's a cover-up."

When Su Chen heard this, he had already begun to carefully examine the tomb.

Wang Haitao realized it belatedly: "Oh, I was wondering why you were so concerned about us cultivators coming in. Could it be that there's some kind of hidden formation or mechanism set up here that's afraid we'd find out?"

Zhang Qian nodded: "Very likely."

The flames in the fire god's eyes began to jump violently.

"You... are looking for death!"

As soon as the words fell, the flame totems on the arms of several people flashed.

Wang Haitao hurriedly clapped his hands on his arms, exclaiming, "It's burning! It's burning!"

Dong Rongjin also pressed his arm to the ground.

Zhang Qian directly took out a gourd, bit open the cork, and poured water on his arm.

After the three of them put out the fire, the fire totem jumped up again.

"No, are you coming again?"

Wang Haitao was furious. He stripped off all his clothes while putting out the fire, then said angrily, "Damn it, keep burning! There's nothing left. Let's see how you burn it!"

"You think you can deal with us with just these little tricks? You're dreaming."

Dong Rongjin followed his example and quickly took off his clothes. He raised his hand and blew on the already burning red skin on his arm again and again.

"Phew, but it really hurts."

Zhang Qian nodded.

Fortunately, they had checked the totem before and found that there was not much divine power left, and the fire was also small at the moment.

The second time the fire started, it went out before it even started because his clothes were soaked with water.

Upon seeing this, the God of Fire lost his human form and retreated back into the sarcophagus. The ball of fire flickered and quickly disappeared.

"Master Su, he's trying to run away!"

Wang Haitao hurriedly reminded.

Su Chen nodded: "It's okay."

Long before he asked the question, he had already transformed his strength into silk threads, tightly covering this place.

So far, there has been no sign of the God of Fire rushing out.

Wang Haitao thought about it carefully and said, "Yes, this tomb must be where he hides his secrets from the heavens. If he escapes, he will be discovered and struck by lightning."

Dong Rongjin reminded him: "Look at the arm, the pattern seems to be much lighter."

"It's just shallow. This guy must want to use this thing to burn us again. Don't put on your clothes yet."

"Master Zhang, take off your clothes too. We are all men, don't be shy!"

Zhang Qian glared at him angrily: "With your ability to talk, you should be able to draw a fire-proof talisman."

Wang Haitao slapped his forehead suddenly.

"Oh, right, how could I forget about the fire-proof talisman?"

Soon he became frustrated again: "Even in this place, I can't draw well."

He doesn't have the ability of Master Su Tianshi.

You can draw talismans anytime and anywhere, and you can even draw talismans in the void.

Before drawing the talisman, he had to prepare all the yellow paper and cinnabar, place them in the most suitable position, and then calm down for a while before he could start drawing. Even so, the probability of success was not high.

"How about you come, Mr. Dong?"

Dong Rongjin chuckled: "Thank you, Master hasn't taught me how to draw talismans yet."

He looked at Su Chen shamelessly: "Uncle Su~"

Su Chenxu drew fire-proof talismans for the three of them. When his eyes fell on the totems on their arms, he curled his lips and said, "With this totem, if he really doesn't come out, we can just follow the clues and find out what happened later."

Zhang Qian nodded, and saw Wang Haitao and Dong Rongjin happily put on their clothes again and walked to Su Chen.

"Is there really a formation in this tomb that obscures the secrets of heaven?"

"What kind of formation? I didn't even notice it."

Zhang Qian couldn't help but frown as he spoke: "It's still not right. If he can build a tomb, then it must be because of the previous forest fire. When he became the God of Fire from the God of Gunpowder, he had already successfully obscured the secrets of heaven. So why did he build this tomb?"

Su Chen: "Even if someone becomes a god through this kind of means, even if he can deceive the secrets of heaven, he can't deceive his own heart. In the long run, what do you think, Master Zhang?"

"Erosion by evil spirits? Or, becoming an evil god?"

Zhang Qian suddenly realized, "Whether or not you've done something wrong, God might not care about ordinary people, but if it's a god..."

Su Chen nodded.

"So the formation in this tomb is not only to obscure the secrets of heaven, but also to deceive himself?"

"Does he want to forget that memory? Or seal it away?"

Su Chen: “Rewrite.”

He pointed at the inscription and said, "It's all clearly written, but the time of becoming the God of Fire is blurred."

Zhang Qian curled his lips.

"I actually believed the inscription before, and thought...ah..."

After sighing several times, Zhang Qian asked, "So what should we do now?"

Su Chen turned his head to look at Wang Haitao and Dong Rongjin.

The two of them were looked at inexplicably.

Wang Haitao: "Master Su, just tell me what you want."

"Aren't you the best at making up stories?"

Su Chen pointed to the inscription: "Restore the truth reasonably."

Then he pointed to the bronze tripod, a hidden corner of the wall: "There are some on it too, they have all been replaced."

Zhang Qian walked to the wall out of curiosity and was surprised to find that: "This carved rock has some spiritual power."

Su Chen nodded.

How could engraving words on something without spirituality have such a great effect as to tamper with the memory of a god?

It was a rare opportunity for Wang Haitao to come across something he was good at, so he immediately started to arrange it with Dong Rongjin.

Zhang Qian added a few words from time to time.

After the story was complete, they started to use shovels to deal with the inscriptions eagerly without waiting for Su Chen to take action.

After scraping it all off, Su Chen took out the chisel.

At the same time, softening symbols were drawn in three places.

Zhang Qian's skill in running script came in handy, and in just over an hour, the inscription had changed.

Wang Haitao and Dong Rongjin were not idle either. Especially when they saw the red and swollen arms, they angrily took out paper and pen, lay on the ground, and wrote crookedly on more than a dozen pieces of yellow paper, which they pasted all over the tomb.

Su Chen waited until they were all done, then raised the corners of his mouth.

"This formation is running slowly, let's add some fuel to the fire."

Zhang Qian gave a thumbs up.

Wang Haitao and Dong Rongjin laughed.

"I guess he'll just jump out of nowhere without us having to catch him, right?"
