Chapter 1654
The cave was dark and damp, with strange lights flickering on the walls.
As they walked, they found some strange symbols on the ground.
Hu Bayi squatted down, observed carefully, and said: "These symbols seem to be similar to those in ancient books."
Huo Jilin said: "Could this be the clue left by Mo Chen?"
Just then, a low roar came from the depths of the cave.
"No, there is something!" Wang Kaixuan was frightened and his face turned pale.
A huge monster rushed out of the darkness with a bloody mouth.
"Run!" Hu Bayi shouted.
The three people fled desperately in the cave, and the monster chased them closely behind.
"Running like this is not a solution. We have to find a way to kill it." Huo Jilin said.
Hu Bayi said: "I see there are a few big rocks over there. Let's push the rocks down and hit it."
The three people pushed the rocks together, and the rocks rolled down and hit the monster.
The monster was smashed and screamed and fell to the ground.
"Great, we finally solved it." Wang Kaixuan said excitedly.
After some searching, they found a stone door at the end of the cave.
Hu Bayi said: "There may be an ancient tomb behind this stone door."
Wang Kaixuan said: "What are you waiting for? Push it open quickly."
The three of them pushed the stone door open with all their strength.
An old smell came to their faces, and there was a huge tomb inside.
"Is this the ancient tomb?" Wang Kaixuan looked around curiously.
Huo Jilin said: "Be careful, there may be a mechanism inside."
They walked into the tomb carefully, and suddenly, the ground began to shake, and countless sharp arrows shot out from all around.
"Get down quickly!" Hu Bayi shouted.
The three of them lay on the ground and avoided the attack of the sharp arrows.
"This is too dangerous." Wang Kaixuan said with lingering fear.
Just then, they found a sarcophagus in the middle of the tomb.
Huo Jilin said, "Maybe the answer is in this sarcophagus."
Hu Bayi said, "Open it carefully, don't trigger any mechanism."
The three slowly approached the sarcophagus and nervously opened the lid...
Boom!
As soon as the lid was opened, a pungent smell came to his face. Wang Kaixuan couldn't help but cover his mouth and nose and said, "What is this smell? It's too bad."
Huo Jilin frowned and said, "Be careful, let's see what's inside first."
They looked closely and saw a skeleton lying in the sarcophagus, holding a jade pendant in the skeleton's hand.
Hu Bayi carefully picked up the jade pendant, observed it carefully, and said: "This jade pendant looks a bit extraordinary, maybe it is a key clue."
Just then, a sinister laugh suddenly came from the tomb: "Hahaha, you ignorant guys, dare to break in here."
The three people were immediately horrified, and Wang Kaixuan said in a trembling voice: "Who? Who is talking?"
A black shadow slowly emerged from the corner and said: "I am the guardian of this ancient tomb. Don't think of taking anything here."
Huo Jilin pretended to be calm and said: "We are just looking for the truth, no intention of offending."
The guardian snorted coldly: "The truth? Do you think it's so easy to get? The secrets in this ancient tomb are not what you can bear."
Hu Bayi said: "No matter what, we will not back down."
The guardian laughed: "Okay, then I'll see how capable you are."
As he said, the guardian flashed and rushed towards them.
The three people hurriedly fought and started a fierce fight with the guardian.
"This guy is so fast!" Wang Kaixuan exclaimed.
Huo Jilin shouted: "Focus, don't be distracted!"
Hu Bayi, with his agility, avoided the Guardian's attacks many times and took the opportunity to counterattack.
After a fierce battle, the Guardian gradually lost the upper hand.
He panted and said: "I didn't expect you to have some skills."
Huo Jilin said: "As long as you don't stop us, we don't want to be your enemy."
The Guardian was silent for a moment and said: "Forget it, maybe this is destined. But you must remember that knowing the truth may not be a good thing."
After that, the Guardian disappeared.
The three breathed a sigh of relief and continued to study the jade pendant.
Hu Bayi found some strange patterns engraved on the jade pendant and said, "This pattern seems to be some kind of map."
Wang Kaixuan came over and said, "Map? Could it be pointing to the depths of the ancient tomb?"
Huo Jilin nodded and said, "It's possible. Let's look for it along this map."
They followed the map on the jade pendant and shuttled through the ancient tomb.
"Why are there so many forks in this place?" Wang Kaixuan complained.
Huo Jilin said, "Don't worry, carefully distinguish theMark. "
As they walked, they came to a secret room.
The secret room was filled with various precious cultural relics and jewels, but the three people's eyes were attracted by a mural on the wall.
Hu Bayi said: "This mural seems to tell the story of Mo Chen."
Wang Kaixuan said: "Take a look, maybe you can find a way to lift the curse."
They carefully studied the mural and found that Mo Chen was cursed because he offended the gods by robbing the tomb. The key to lifting the curse seems to be related to a mysterious treasure.
Huo Jilin said: "It seems that we have to continue looking for that treasure."
Just then, the door of the secret room suddenly closed, and flames burst out all around.
"Oh no, we've been tricked!" Hu Bayi shouted.
Wang Kaixuan said in panic: "What can we do? We're going to be burned to death!"
Huo Jilin said calmly: "Don't panic, look for other exits. "
They searched around in the secret room and finally found a vent.
Hu Bayi said, "Let's crawl out from here."
Wang Kaixuan looked at the narrow vent and said, "I'm so fat, can I get through?"
Huo Jilin encouraged, "There's no time to hesitate, give it a try."
With the help of Huo Jilin and Hu Bayi, Wang Kaixuan struggled to get into the vent.
After some effort, the three finally escaped from the secret room.
"Oh, I almost died in there." Wang Kaixuan said with lingering fear.
Huo Jilin said, "It's not over yet, we have to continue looking for the treasure."
They continued to explore the ancient tomb and encountered various mechanisms and traps along the way.
"This place is simply a maze, I'm dizzy." Wang Kaixuan said.
Hu Bayi said, "Hold on, I believe we will find the treasure. "
Finally, they found a mysterious treasure chest in the deepest part of the ancient tomb.
Huo Jilin slowly opened the treasure chest, and a strange light emanated from it.
"Is this the treasure we are looking for?" Wang Kaixuan asked.
Just then, a ray of light suddenly flew out of the treasure chest and shot straight at them...
Huo Jilin quickly stretched out his hand to block it and shouted loudly: "Be careful!"
The light stopped in front of them and turned into an illusory figure. The figure slowly said: "You are finally here."
Hu Bayi asked vigilantly: "Who are you?"
The figure said: "I am Mo Chen. "
