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

After hearing Zhuangzhuang's words, Wuxie felt a pang of heartache. How could those people bear to see such a young child suffer so much? Overwhelmed with a sense of justice, he said in a hoarse voice, "Zhuangzhuang, don't be afraid! Your brothers will take you to find your mother!"

Ling Xiao didn't seem to care much; who knew if the little brat was telling the truth? But after hearing Wu Xie's words, the image of the tadpoles looking for their mother flashed through Ling Xiao's mind...

Ling Xiao asked, somewhat seriously and doubtfully, "Zhuangzhuang, you really didn't let a single person pass?"

Wu Xie: ...Ling Xiao, are you allergic to this kind of scene? Don't you have a heart?!

Zhuangzhuang blushed with embarrassment and said, "Zhuangzhuang didn't mean it. The Grand Elder and the others came a few times, and only two other groups came after that. They hit the wall with their magic weapons, and it hurt so much. The formation broke by itself, and Zhuangzhuang couldn't stop them."

"Besides the Grand Elder, has anyone else seen you?" Ling Xiao asked again.

"No, only you guys..." Zhuangzhuang said softly.

"Why... is it just us?" Lao Yang interrupted from the side.

Zhuangzhuang: ...It's not just you guys who broke my teeth right away...

Zhuangzhuang didn't reply, and everyone understood why, falling silent as a result.

Ling Xiao looked at Lao Yang and asked Zhuang Zhuang, "Have you seen him before?"

Zhuangzhuang twisted his body and said, "Never seen one before!" He remembered such an ugly guy immediately; he was sure he had never seen one before.

Ling Xiao put him down, and Wu Xie took his hand. Ling Xiao glanced at Wu Xie and asked, "Are you taking him with you?"

Wu Xie was taken aback by Ling Xiao's question, but after realizing what he meant, he nodded and said, "Yes! We promised to take him to find his mother."

Ling Xiao and Master Liang exchanged a glance, and both of them looked at Zhuangzhuang without saying a word.

Ling Xiao paused for a moment without speaking, then gestured for Zhuangzhuang to untangle the "ghost wall" (a magical illusion), and Zhuangzhuang obediently untangled it.

Ling Xiao walked out, and Wu Xie took Zhuang Zhuang's hand and led him away.

Just as Wu Xie led Zhuang Zhuang to the exit of the corridor, a force slammed Zhuang Zhuang against the wall.

"Zhuangzhuang!" Wuxie rushed forward to help Zhuangzhuang up from the ground.

“He can’t come with us; he can’t get out,” Ling Xiao sighed, as if it were no surprise.

"Why?" Wu Xie asked incredulously.

“That Grand Elder won’t give him that chance,” Liang Shiye explained from the side.

Yes, Wu Xie calmed down. The elder had assigned Zhuang Zhuang to guard the gate. Zhuang Zhuang's only wish was to see his mother. If his wish was granted, how could Zhuang Zhuang continue guarding the gate?

"Will I never see my mother again?" Zhuangzhuang asked, his voice choked with sobs.

Wu Xie looked at Zhuang Zhuang with red eyes, unsure how to answer. Lao Yang also lowered his head.

Ling Xiao stepped forward and gently said to Zhuangzhuang with his little finger, "Zhuangzhuang, big brother will make a pinky promise with you. If your mother still exists, whether she is a human or a ghost, big brother will bring her to you. But if big brother doesn't come back before the next group of people arrive, then don't wait anymore, okay?" After saying that, Ling Xiao patted Zhuangzhuang's head with his other hand.

Perhaps that dream really affected Ling Xiao. Ling Xiao's eyes were full of love. Looking at Ling Xiao's loving gaze, Zhuang Zhuang made a pinky promise with him. Zhuang Zhuang felt that this older brother was really magical. Every time he got close to this older brother, he felt very uncomfortable, but the older brother seemed to have a magic power that made him unable to resist getting closer.

He decided to trust his older brothers, and oh, and his grandfather. He seemed to have waited a long time; if his mother really was dead, he wouldn't wait any longer.

Zhuangzhuang watched them leave. Once they were a distance away, Wuxie asked Lingxiao, "Lingzi, do you think Zhuangzhuang will be reincarnated if his mother really dies?"

Ling Xiao looked at Wu Xie as if he were an idiot, opened his mouth, but still shattered his hopes by saying, "We probably won't go back."

"Why? Didn't you and Zhuangzhuang make a pinky promise?" Wu Xie was a little agitated.

Seeing Wu Xie's unstable emotions, Master Liang comforted him, "Young man, don't act so rashly. Strengthen him. He can't be reincarnated. This kind of magic that seals a spirit in a wall prevents it from being reincarnated. If he finds out that he has to stay there for the rest of his life and can't see his mother, he might turn into a vengeful ghost and make us die with him. Brother Ling Xiao did this so that we can leave safely."

"How could Zhuangzhuang hurt us?" Wuxie thought of the chubby little guy from earlier and couldn't imagine what harm he could have done to them.

"Wu Xie, look at your sides," Ling Xiao reminded Wu Xie.

Wu Xie shone his flashlight around and was immediately horrified. The road was littered with bones. Wu Xie's face turned pale, and he stammered, "These... what are these?"

"They're trapped in Zhuangzhuang's ghost wall. Zhuangzhuang's mother is already dead. If that damned Elder had really succeeded, he wouldn't have needed to come back so many times." Ling Xiao paused, then slowly added, "I know what you're thinking. I'll keep my promise to him. If I really find his mother, I'll bring her to him. But that's all I can do. Wuxie, we can't save Zhuangzhuang, no matter what." Besides, who knows, you might end up blowing up the grave in the end...
