Tomb raiding: The awesome life that started from Ganggangyingzi

"Brother Bo, tell me quickly, are we cursed? That thing can't be as exaggerated as Fatty said, right?"

Wu Laosan's anxious voice startled Ji Haobo from his reverie. Turning his head to see a group of people looking at him expectantly, he shrugged helplessly.

You don't.

"Ah! Thank goodness, I wasn't cursed..."

Upon hearing this, even an old fox like Wu Laosan was all smiles, but his expression immediately froze.

"Uh, I'm not cursed, then... then what about them...?"

"This curse is spread through the giant eye left behind by the Snake Mother. You and Zhang Menzi have bloodline awakening, but it's a pity you missed out on this lifelong prize."

Ji Haobo glanced at the two of them half-jokingly, then looked at the others.

"As for you guys who saw that giant eye, congratulations to them on winning the grand prize!"

"Ah! It's over! It's over! It's over!"

Fatty Wang plopped down on the ground, wailing and howling.

"My Wang family has had only one son for nine generations! Is the line going to end with me? I would be letting down my ancestors!"

Old Hu was getting annoyed by his behavior and couldn't help but curse:

"Damn, didn't you say it was three generations of only sons? Are you including Erpang's family too?"

"I want you to take care of it!"

Fatty Wang retorted, then turned to look at Erpang and continued howling.

"Where's Erpang...? My brother, if you ever die, don't worry, I'll take care of your wife."

Erpang, being the kind of guy who doesn't stand to be taken advantage of, immediately followed suit and started yelling back.

"My brother... Fatty! If you die first, I'll help you too, and I won't let your wife and niece suffer..."

The two of them howled together, and even Zhang Qilin couldn't stand it. He turned to the heavy sword stuck in the tree trunk.

The remaining few sat on the ground, sighing. A-Ning pulled Ji Haobo aside, looking at him nervously.

"Haobo, will you despise me for having a curse?"

"No, that's no problem for me at all."

Ji Haobo shook his head without hesitation and then asked in return:

"I also want to talk to you about something. Do you mind if I have several wives?"

"I mind, I mind very much!"

Although Ah Ning said this, there was no anger on her face. She simply continued in a low voice:

"Haobo, if they don't mind me, then I don't mind them either."

Upon hearing this, Ji Haobo picked up A Ning, walked to her side, and whispered a strange laugh in her ear.

"Alright, alright, don't worry, they won't mind at all, they'll even try to curry favor with you, otherwise they won't be able to withstand my bombardment, hehe!"

After about an incense stick's time, the sky gradually brightened, and a red sun quietly peeked out.

"Brother Bo, it's already morning. How about we have breakfast and then head back?"

Upon hearing Wang Pangzi's shout, Ji Haobo turned around and teased:

"What, you're not going to wail anymore?"

"Hehe! That was just to scare Erpang."

Fatty Wang flattered him with a smile:

"What bullshit curse? With you here, Master Bo, that snake god is nothing but trash. We'll definitely drag that bastard out and beat him to a pulp later!"

This guy is talking complete nonsense; he just thought of it with Lao Hu.

Ji Haobo said that the curse was only spread through the giant eye of the snake mother, and it was definitely not comparable to the power of those who saw the ghost cave.

So what's there to be afraid of? After all, Ji Boda was confident he could handle someone like Yang Xueli, let alone this one.

After the group finished eating, they parted ways, and Zhang Qilin disappeared without a trace.

Wu Laosan and his nephew, along with Pan Zi, even took Erpang away, so there must have been some kind of shady deal.

As for how the profits will be divided this time, Zhang Qilin only took the Ghost Seal with him; the weight of that heavy sword was somewhat exaggerated.

The weight was no less than 100 pounds, and he couldn't fully wield it, so he stayed.

Wu Laosan took the bronze fish and a piece of Qilin blood that Ji Haobo had given him;

The two didn't divide the remaining items; only Erpang and a few others left their account numbers.

Once they left, only Ji Haobo and a few others remained on the mountain.

"Wait here for a moment, I'll go down and check if that nine-headed cypress is dead."

Ji Haobo really didn't know the situation with that thing. There were a lot of card draw points, not too many, but not too few either, totaling more than 85,000.

Most of the contributions came from Iron-Faced Scholar, King Lu Shang, and the Giant Eye. Overall, this was all about gaining experience from defeating monsters.

As for those things, they were basically bare; the dragon energy had been swallowed up by a few pounces.

When Ji Haobo used his dragon claw to descend, many parts of the cave had collapsed, and countless charred vines covered the bottom.

Except for a few vines that still emitted wisps of smoke, none of them were wriggling anymore, as if they were truly dead.

But Ji Haobo didn't believe it at all. Ordinary plants can revive from a single branch if the environment is right, let alone something like the Nine-Headed Cypress.

As the sun rose, the sun-hidden sinkhole, which had never seen the light of day, was greeted by its first rays of sunlight in countless years, dispelling the lingering gloom.

In the silent sinkhole, wisps of smoke drifted, appearing misty and hazy under the sunlight.

Ji Haobo, who had calmed his breathing and focused his mind, suddenly heard a faint sound, which he was certain was not coming from the crawling corpse beetle.

Ji Haobo squinted and quietly turned his head to look over, and his heart was immediately slightly shaken;

He discovered that in the center of the broken trunk of the Hydra Cypress, a bright red, translucent vine, about the thickness of a finger, suddenly emerged, remarkably resembling a snake.

When the thing fully emerged, it was less than three meters long. Ji Haobo was very curious about what it was. He didn't move, but just watched quietly.

What happened next surprised him greatly. The thing moved quite quickly and darted to the broken trunk of the Hydra Cypress, then plunged into it.

Then Ji Haobo saw that the vines in the entire sinkhole were visibly withered, as if they had lost all moisture.

Moreover, they became very brittle, and some vines could not support the weight and broke into several pieces and shattered into dust.

About an incense stick's time later, the thing reappeared, but apart from being twice as long, it remained unchanged.

Just as it was about to return to the roots of the Hydra Cypress, Ji Haobo, suspended by the rope of the Flying Dragon Claw, silently swung over.

He caught it without the object noticing; it felt warm and smooth to the touch, almost imperceptible, as if it had no physical form.

However, Ji Haobo dared not let his guard down. The moment the thing was grabbed, both ends became extremely sharp and stabbed towards him.

A sense of extreme danger startled Ji Haobo. Without thinking, he unleashed a burst of energy from his hand and flung it into the air.

After landing, this guy became strange. Not only was he unharmed, but he also swam around like a snake, though this time he didn't sense any danger.

As the object approached, Ji Haobo hesitated for a moment before his arm, brimming with energy, slowly reached out to grab it.

Instead of dodging, the thing automatically wrapped around his arm, and Ji Haobo immediately felt a surge of blood and energy being devoured.
