I just broke up with my boyfriend and then I transmigrated into the world of "The Lost Tomb&quo
Chapter 75 Let's escape from the temple together!
Ling Xiao showed no concern for Lao Yang's condition; only Wu Xie was concerned about and inquired about Lao Yang. He had already decided that whether Lao Yang was human or ghost, he was still his good friend, wasn't he? Besides, now that he had seen the blood on Lao Yang's body, his doubts had lessened considerably. Do ghosts bleed? Of course not!
After applying the medicine to Lao Yang, Wu Xie helped him continue on his way.
The three entered a forest of jumbled rocks, interspersed among which were stone figurines, each over two meters tall. It was unclear what they were used to commemorate, but each figurine had different holes that, when the wind blew, sounded like people shouting.
"Do you think the sound the villagers were talking about could be coming from this thing?" Lao Yang asked.
"No, the villagers were talking about the sound of ghost soldiers training. The stones here are clearly making shouting sounds," Ling Xiao replied.
Wu Xie thought for a moment and nodded, saying, "Judging from the appearance of the stone figures here, they must be to commemorate the prisoners. The shouts made by the wind are just like the sounds they made when they were tortured."
"This idea is pretty good. When the wind blows, they can shout. I can feel the joy of the victors!" Ling Xiao praised with shining eyes.
Wu Xie looked at him strangely, grabbed his ear and said, "You're so young and you're already learning bad things! Get those thoughts out of your head!"
"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! This is outrageous! How did you learn this trick?! You've ripped my ear off! I'm going to tell Master Hua!" Ling Xiao finally managed to break free, rubbing his ear, which was red from being pinched, and tears welling up in his eyes. He looked utterly pitiful!
Wu Xie also felt that he had used a bit too much force, but he still stubbornly said, "Even if you tell Xiao Hua, she won't say anything to me. I'm saving you, so you can't have these dark thoughts!" He didn't want to see the sapling grow crooked.
Ling Xiao looked at him with a wronged expression and said, "This is too much!"
Just then, Lao Yang shouted from the side, "There's a hole here!"
Ling Xiao and Wu Xie looked over and saw that Lao Yang was lying on a large stone statue, gesturing backward. The stone statue was broken and incomplete, but it was able to block the entrance of the cave completely. Judging from the appearance, it must have been blown up when someone was raiding the tomb.
The three climbed onto the stone statue and jumped into the cave. The cave was exceptionally spacious. No one knew which genius had come up with the idea of opening a tomb-raiding tunnel at such a high place!
Further inside was a large vaulted stone chamber filled with stagnant water and covered with slippery moss.
Wu Xie tested the water depth with the Thousand Chance Umbrella and found that he couldn't reach the bottom, so he suggested swimming in.
Ling Xiao shivered as he jumped down. For some reason, ever since the side effect of activating his bloodline was revealed, he had become increasingly sensitive to the cold.
From the area swept by Wu Xie's flashlight, one could see that the surrounding walls were also covered with chisel marks, and it seemed that something was drawn on them.
The three continued swimming along the stone path, when suddenly a right-angle turn caught Wu Xie and Lao Yang off guard.
Wu Xie said, "Let's be careful, there might be wood or something in the water."
Ling Xiao, however, seemed very excited and said, "Oh! Temple Run! This is so exciting!"
Wu Xie couldn't see his expression, but he always felt that the child seemed to have changed a bit after dyeing his hair white.
"What is the Temple... the Great Escape? What is it?" Lao Yang asked.
"Exactly, emmm... it's like we're in the water right now, and a monster might come chasing you in a moment. There are all sorts of obstacles in front of you, and if you can't dodge them, the monster will eat you!" Ling Xiao explained to Lao Yang while laughing, but it seemed a bit scary in this dark and empty space.
"You... stop talking, it's too scary!" Lao Yang said, trembling.
It wasn't that what Ling Xiao said was particularly terrifying; it was just that the place echoed. After saying "I'll eat you up," Ling Xiao raised his voice and then laughed out loud. Now the entire stone passage echoed with: "Eat you up! Hahaha! Eat you up! Hahaha!" over and over again...
Finally, the sound stopped, and the three of them reached the next corner. Just then, they heard the sound of water not far ahead.
Lao Yang hurriedly turned around and said, "Run!"
Ling Xiao pulled Wu Xie behind him, making him lean against the wall, and switched to the Thousand Chance Umbrella.
Wu Xie fired several shots at the location of the splash, seemingly hitting something in the water. The thing leaped out of the water and lunged at Wu Xie and Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao instantly pulled out the Emei Dagger and stabbed it into the creature's skull. Wu Xie shone a flashlight over and discovered that it was a huge fish.
Ling Xiao's Emei dagger pierced straight into the fish's bones. Seeing that it couldn't break free and had been out of the water for too long, the fish began to frantically thrash its tail.
As luck would have it, Lao Yang swam back at that moment, and the fish's tail slapped him away.
"Wu Xie, fire!" Ling Xiao shouted at Wu Xie. This fish was far too big, and its mouth smelled terrible. Ling Xiao felt like he was about to throw up!
Wu Xie quickly fired two more shots, and the fish finally stopped struggling.
“It’s a taimen!” Wuxie said.
