Hey!Your patron saint of the underworld has been revealed!

Chapter 84 Footsteps

Shi Erruo raised his head and looked at the three walls and asked, "Are these three swastikas at the same position on the three walls?"

"No." Qiu Zhuo shook his head, "The wall facing the entrance has a swastika in the middle, but the other two sides are a little far away from the entrance, but the height is the same."

Shi Erruo guessed, "Tell me, is it possible that the fourth swastika pattern is not on the fourth wall, but on the ground. The four swastika patterns form a square in three-dimensional space."

"Yes." Qiu Zhuo illuminated the ground with a luminous pearl, "I'll try it. Are you still cold?"

He put his hand on Shi Erruo's forehead, felt the temperature, frowned and touched the giant capybara's fur, and said worriedly, "Its fur is too thick and it hasn't dried yet."

"It's okay. Let's find the exit first. I can still hold on."

When the giant capybara heard Qiu Zhuo's disgusting words, it cried out, "Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee~~".

If it could speak, it would definitely protest. Can it decide whether its hair is dry?
Qiu Zhuo quickly found the location of the fourth corner on the ground. He squatted down and touched the ground. He did feel some areas that were more undulating than the edges of the ground, as if something had been carved but had been worn away. .

"It should be right here. There are signs of wear and tear on it, and the lines are no longer visible clearly."

"Could it be the wreckage we saw just now? He wiped away the swastikas on the ground." Shi Erruo guessed.

"I'll try forming a seal to see if this room reacts."

Qiu Zhuo remembered the words of the Demon King. He said that as long as he learned to touch the ground to subdue the demon mark, he could find the exit all the way. It is very likely that the subduing mark is the master key to this tomb group.

"it is good."

Shi Erruo asked the giant capybara to take a few steps back to leave space for Qiu Zhuo.

Soon, Qiu Zhuo used his soul power to form a demon-subduing seal and accurately hit the swastika pattern on the ground.

At first, there was no movement, but soon, the whole room began to shake violently.

The back of the giant capybara was so bare that it was easy for Shi Erruo to fall off it.

Qiu Zhuo staggered to Shi Erruo, hugged her and stabilized her body.

"Wow! Wow! Wow!"

The stone wall collided violently with the bluestone slab, making a harsh sound. The entire ground began to tilt downward, and a huge hole opened at the edge of the room.

At first, it was the giant capybara with slippery skin that rolled down.

Immediately afterwards, Qiu Zhuo and Shi Erruo couldn't hold on anymore and slid straight to the edge along the inclined angle.

"Shi Erruo, be careful!"

Qiu Zhuo held Shi Erruo in his arms, protected her head with his hands, and the two of them rolled down together.

Because of the fever, Shi Erruo had little strength. After this ordeal, he became even more tired. He couldn't help but breathe heavily and wrapped his clothes tighter. The pain caused by the impact on his body could not be relieved. Being keenly felt, it just feels dizzy.

After the inertia of rolling disappeared, Qiu Zhuo and Shi Erruo stopped.

"Hmm~"

After hitting the ground, Shi Erruo couldn't help but groaned, closed his eyes tightly, and rubbed into Qiu Zhuo's arms.

"Did you get hurt anywhere?"

Qiu Zhuo immediately stood up and touched Shi Erruo's forehead. Sure enough, it was even hotter.

"Ehwu~~Ehwu~~"

The giant capybara that rolled to the side saw the two people coming down, and immediately nuzzled up to Qiu Zhuo, sniffing hard with its nose. It seemed to have noticed something was wrong with Shi Erruo's state.

"You don't need to carry her, I just hold her."

Qiu Zhuo said, hugging Shi Erruo and letting her head rest on his shoulder, "Put your hands on her to keep her warm."

Shi Erruo struggled to open his eyes, listened to Qiu Zhuo's words in a daze, almost subconsciously raised his arms and put them around Qiu Zhuo's neck, and then closed his eyes in a daze. "Ehwu~~Ehwu~~"

Because of Shi Erruo's condition, the giant capybara consciously caused trouble and followed Qiu Zhuo obediently.

After falling into the tomb below, Qiu Zhuo discovered that the tomb chambers here were all connected together, and the doors between the tomb chambers were all open, so there was no need to worry about being locked in a closed space.

"Follow us, we have to go quickly!" Qiu Zhuo said to the giant capybara, "Take this night pearl and light the way in front of you. Go faster!"

Qiu Zhuo threw the luminous pearl towards the giant capybara. The giant capybara jumped up and caught it. After getting the luminous pearl, it immediately turned around and opened the way in front.

His body twisted rapidly, his four short legs almost sparkled, and he walked quite fast.

Under the dim light, Qiu Zhuo held Shi Erruo and shuttled through the adjacent tombs. As the area of ​​the tomb increased, he knew that he was getting closer and closer to the main tomb.

Shi Erruo's hot forehead rubbed against Qiu Zhuo's neck, which made Qiu Zhuo even more anxious.

He couldn't imagine what he would do if it was too late to get out of this tomb.

Along with Qiu Zhuo's urgent footsteps and breathing, Shi Erruo seemed to hear another voice in the faint.

Very faint, but there it is.

Shi Erruo raised his head with difficulty and patted Qiu Zhuo's shoulder.

Qiu Zhuo slowed down and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Did you hear anything?" Shi Erruo braced himself and frowned.

She felt that her throat was very dry at the moment, and her head was swollen and painful.

"what sound?"

Qiu Zhuo's chest rose and fell with his breathing. He only wanted to move forward and did not pay attention to other movements.

"Please stop for a moment and leave later."

"Ehwu~~Ehwu~~"

The giant capybara heard Shi Erruo's words and turned around and screamed. It seemed that it had heard something, but Qiu Zhuo kept urging it to move forward, so it didn't care.

Qiu Zhuo saw that if Shi Er persisted, he could only stop.

Shi Erruo said feebly, "Put me down for a while. I'll get tired if I keep walking."

Qiu Zhuo hugged Shi Erruo and bumped her up, without letting her down. He just stopped where he was, "I'm not tired. What sound are you talking about?"

"Footsteps, didn't you hear the footsteps? They were just walking very slowly, so they must not be your footsteps."

After saying that, Shi Erruo coughed twice and hugged Qiu Zhuo's neck tighter.

Qiu Zhuo frowned, "I didn't hear..."

Before he finished speaking, he actually heard the faint sound of footsteps, walking so slowly that you couldn't hear them unless you listened carefully.

Shi Erruo patted Qiu Zhuo's shoulder and said in a weak voice, "Did you hear that?"

The giant capybara screamed "Eww~~Eww~~", as if to say: You heard it this time.

Qiu Zhuo frowned and said worriedly, "How can there be footsteps in this tomb? If it is a ghost, there can be no sound. If it is not a ghost, the person who made the noise should have heard our voices."

"Yeah." Shi Erruo said bluntly, "You walked so fast, I must have heard it."

"Eee~~Eee~~" the giant capybara immediately echoed.
