I just broke up with my boyfriend and then I transmigrated into the world of "The Lost Tomb&quo

The next day, the three of them had breakfast at a villager's house and bought some dry food before setting off.

It took them more than a week to reach Jiazigou, which Lao Yang had mentioned. On the way, Wu Xie asked Ling Xiao, "Ling Zi, do you think it's possible that Lao Yang really is a ghost?"

Ling Xiao replied, "If he really is a ghost, what do you plan to do?"

Wu Xie thought for a moment and said, "Then he must have some unfulfilled wish. If I help him fulfill it, will he be able to pass on peacefully and be reincarnated?"

Ling Xiao looked at him and smiled gently, saying, "Do you think you're some kind of little bodhisattva?" She paused, then added, "What if his wish comes at the cost of your life?"

"How could that be? Lao Yang wouldn't be that kind of person!" Wu Xie said, but in his heart he was having doubts. The living Lao Yang might not be, but the dead might be...

Ling Xiao didn't reply to him again, but continued on his way.

"This is it! This is where we...discovered the burial pit!" Lao Yang shouted excitedly.

Ling Xiao looked at Jiazigou. It was called Jiazigou, but it was actually just a "narrow strip of sky" erosion landform, which is unique to limestone areas.

The three of them quickly crossed the narrow ditch, which was only wide enough for one person to pass through.

After crossing the ditch, Wu Xie said that he hadn't had a proper meal in a long time and decided to have a big meal. So the three of them started a picnic. Halfway through the meal, Ling Xiao suddenly took out his nine-section whip and whipped it at Lao Yang.

Wu Xie looked up and saw a monkey corpse behind Lao Yang, with the tip of the nine-section whip stuck in the monkey's neck.

Ling Xiao pulled out the whip tip, wiping it as he said, "This monkey is stealing things, so keep an eye on your equipment and luggage."

When Lao Yang saw the corpse, he broke out in a cold sweat, and a bone almost got stuck in his throat. He was filled with apprehension. He knew that this Ling Xiao was not simple at all!

Wu Xie went to look through the backpack and found it contained food and compressed biscuits. He exclaimed with lingering fear, "That monkey almost stole it!"

"Squeak, squeak, squeak," came the sound of monkeys not far away. Several monkeys jumped out from all sides at the same time. The monkeys were all huge and bared their big mouths at the three of them, revealing two fangs.

Behind these monkeys was a larger, black monkey, and the rest of the monkeys were waiting for its command; clearly, this was the monkey king.

"W-why are there so many monkeys? What do we do now?" Lao Yang asked fearfully, trying to hide behind Ling Xiao as he spoke.

Ling Xiao completely ignored Lao Yang. He looked at Wu Xie and said, "Wu Xie, how about we practice our weapons?"

Seeing that Ling Xiao didn't seem to care about the current situation at all, Wu Xie breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Ling Xiao was confident. He nodded to Ling Xiao, took out the Thousand Chance Umbrella, and switched it to musket mode.

"To catch the thief, first catch the king." Ling Xiao's voice reached his ears, and Wu Xie also noticed the black-haired monkey king. After aiming, he fired a shot, but unfortunately the monkey king dodged very quickly, and the shot only hit the monkey's shoulder.

"It's okay, keep fighting! You just need to focus on the Monkey King, leave the rest to me!" Ling Xiao patted Wu Xie on the shoulder, giving Wu Xie plenty of confidence.

Several monkeys attacked Wu Xie frantically. Ling Xiao swung his nine-section whip and charged forward. The monkeys chattered incessantly, which annoyed Ling Xiao to no end.

However, since it was meant for Wu Xie to practice on, Ling Xiao focused on attacking the monkeys' limbs. After several rounds, most of the monkeys were crippled...

Seeing that he was no match for the monkey king, he tried to escape. Wu Xie fired several more shots at the monkey king, seemingly gradually mastering the musket. He quickly killed the monkey king and then started shooting at the other monkeys.

After the Monkey King died, the half-crippled monkeys on the ground let out desperate and angry howls, and the whole monkeys also rushed over, as if they wanted to tear Ling Xiao and Wu Xie to pieces.

Wu Xie also found his rhythm, shooting down monkeys one by one with perfect accuracy. Seeing that there was no danger nearby, he switched the Thousand Chance Umbrella to the greatsword mode and engaged in close combat with the crippled monkeys.

After all the monkeys had fallen to the ground, Ling Xiao praised him, "Not bad marksmanship!"

Wu Xie scratched his head, looked at the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella, and said with a simple smile, "I'm more used to the double-edged shotgun; I still need to practice this one."

At this moment, the two heard an occasional "Ouch!" sound.

The two turned around and saw Lao Yang curled up on the ground, his body covered in monkey scratches and bite marks...
