After eight days on the road, the tomb robbing team finally arrived at Haoyue Fifth City.

Because the only problem they encountered on the road were these bandits, so there was no chance for them to take action.

Jiang Li still couldn't fully detect the strength of several people, and she couldn't test what they were thinking.

Ouyang Qian might have been dissatisfied with Jiang Li for asking her to do something when they were at the inn, so she didn't get too close to Jiang Li in the next few days.

Hiding is the most important thing when dealing with strangers. You should hide it reasonably, hide it so much that others won’t notice it, hide it so much that it won’t affect the mission and you can still achieve what you want.

At the very least, Jiang Li could be sure that he could hide it. Her method currently only exposes the copper coins that predict good and bad luck, and her favorite storage space has not been used. After all, she has those bandits as servants. Those few people may guess something about Jiang Li. Maybe some people have heard of Jiang Li's methods before, but if they don't tell them, Jiang Li won't tell either.

The carriage arrived and the cook came over and spoke to several people.

"Gentlemen, we are here."

Jiang Li got out of the car and saw the blackened Haoyue Mountain.

The mountain was bare and there was no sign of life, except for a few soldiers guarding the mountainside.

"Just for the miracle..."

Jiang Li said this and looked at Haoyue Wucheng again.

The Five Cities of Haoyue are the five cities surrounding Haoyue Mountain. Due to the mountain topography, they have to climb over a mountain of more than 300 feet or detour two or three miles to reach the other side. Therefore, it is not possible to do this. coherent.

If the mountain is opened up, the five cities can be completely connected. However, except for the local residents of the five cities of Haoyue, whether it is Northern Zhao or Southern Wei, all they want is the fairyland on the mountain, and they are not interested in the lives of these people. care.

Jiang Li and the other five people entered the Second City, which was directly opposite the entrance of the tomb.

The soldiers guarding the city stopped them. Bixi took out the emperor's token, and then the soldiers let them in.

After entering the city, Jiang Li discovered that there were no local residents here anymore.

There are only stationed troops.

She didn't go to other cities, but her guess was that it would be similar. In order to better control this place, the emperor should drive everyone out.

This is Jiang Li's best wish. She sincerely hoped the people here were just kicked out.

However, the destroyed houses she saw on the road and the bloodstains that had not been completely cleaned up still made her beautiful wish come true.

Jiang Li finally understood how crazy the emperor could be for the sake of immortality and immortality.

If the emperor is really immortal, then the world should be ruined, right?

Jiang Li suddenly wanted to leave just like that and not go looking for that fairy trace, but then he thought about it, and he couldn't stop the others.

If you really find a fairy trace there, just grab it yourself and destroy it. Immortality, this thing is really harmful.

A general is stationed here, and the general has not returned here yet. The commander-in-chief took a few people to the inn to settle down, and then took them up the mountain to see the tomb.

Jiang Li looked at the bandits and asked them.

"Are you willing to come with us, or are we going to kill you all now?"

The cook almost cried when he heard this. Along the way, Jiang Li often used these words to threaten them into working and doing dangerous things.

Their choices are the same as before.

"Then they must be following a few of them."

After going up the mountain, Li Tian and Li Di really came into play.

The two people used a dragon-seeking ruler to measure here for a while and found that the magnetic field here was chaotic. The Heavenly Master didn't have any magic weapon that could be used to hunt for treasures, so he used a magic weapon that could detect mana fluctuations. Together with these two people, he measured the general shape of the tomb on the mountain.

I have been busy with this thing all day.

After finishing their work, they returned to the inn. Li Tian and Li Di reorganized the data detected on the mountain, and then drew the general shape of the tomb.

Then he fell into deep thought.

"Something's not right..."

"what happened?"

Ouyang Qian asked these two people, and Li Tian answered.

"Why doesn't it look like the tomb of a cultivator? Instead, it looks like a... natural cave."

The Heavenly Master also came over to take a look, and asked a robber to go out and dig the soil, and then recited a spell to turn the pile of soil into the shape of the tomb, and then said.

"The tombs of immortal cultivators are generally designed to attract other people to hunt for treasures, and then set up a magic circle at the end to seize the body again, so that the dead can retake the body or pass on the skills. So such a place must be able to It's like a natural cave that can accommodate a few people entering and exiting normally."

"Seize the body?"

Li Di seemed to have some doubts about this, but seeing Bi Xi's eyes, he didn't dare to ask any more questions.

Li Tian originally had no feelings about this matter, but when he saw Li Di being threatened by Bi Xi, he went to ask the Tianshi instead.

"Then the danger Jiang Li mentioned might be this?"

"That's not the case. If you seize a body, you will only seize one. In order to attract suitable people to come, generally some treasures will be placed in the tombs of immortal cultivators. The deeper you go in, the more precious they will be, and the danger will also increase. In this way, Firstly, to attract more people, and secondly, to make sure that the person who finally arrived next to the body is strong enough."

"What if it's an inherited technique?"

"It's almost the same. We always have to select the people who are most qualified to inherit."

After listening to what Tianshi said, Bixi asked unexpectedly.

"In other words, the immortal trace must be next to the body, right?"

"Yes."

"I'll interrupt you."

Jiang Li suddenly raised his hand, and everyone's attention was focused on him.

Bi Xi's eyes were gradually filled with murderous intent, and the eyes of Tianshi and Ouyang Qian were also impatient.

But they were all still waiting for Jiang Li to say something, until Jiang Li started asking questions.

"If there is a miracle of immortality there, why are there corpses?"

No one could answer Jiang Li's question. They just felt like something was broken in their hearts.

Including Bixi.

Jiang Li realized that her problem seemed to have broken the hearts of these people and that they might not be able to rob tombs. She quickly tried to find a way to make up for it.

"Maybe... someone figured it out after he died and put it in the tomb."

There are so many loopholes in this statement, but no one has pointed them out.

Li Tian looked at everyone and said again.

"Besides, there should be a lot of magic weapons around. We can take them away for business."

"that's right!"

Jiang Li expressed his approval.

Bixi continued to look at Jiang Li, and Jiang Li felt that the murderous aura in him could almost be seen.

Jiang Li didn't see Biyi reach out, but the big sword on his back had already moved. He took it in his hand and smashed it towards Jiang Li.

Because his spiritual roots changed his physique, Jiang Li was able to react. She took out the impact-absorbing shield from the storage space and blocked the attack.

In the eyes of others, they only saw Bigui's sudden attack. Only after the attack was over did they realize that it could destroy the house. But such a powerful attack hit Jiang Li's shield as if nothing happened.

It was as if the sword was not swung with any force at all, but was placed extremely smoothly on Jiang Li's shield.

Such an attack did not hurt Jiang Li in the slightest, which was something Biyi expected. Zuo Xiaoqiwei knew more about the strange people and happenings in the world than any other organization. Although Jiang Li came to this world less than a year ago, some of the things she experienced had already attracted the attention of Zuo Xiaoqiwei. They didn't know the details of Jiang Li, so it was expected that he could withstand Bixi's blow.

Therefore, Bi Xi had no intention of killing Jiang Li, but only wanted to intimidate her.

"No one will think you are dumb if you don't speak."

"Death cannot silence me."

Jiang Li replied like this.

There was no one around to stop the fight, so the two of them stopped the stalemate and put everything away.

At this time, Tianshi stopped Jiang Li.

"Can I see this shield of yours?"

"……Can."

Jiang Li handed the shield to Tianshi. Jiang Li didn't know what this shield was, but the Heavenly Master might know.

Tianshi looked at it carefully, frowned, then relaxed it, and then asked Jiang Li.

"Where did you get this shield?"

"It was given by someone else. What's wrong?"

It was a gift from Tieniu. Jiang Li didn't lie.

The Heavenly Master took another look.

"This workmanship should be the craftsmanship of Tiangongtang. It is made of high-quality materials, fine workmanship, and can absorb impact. It is of no use to immortal cultivators, but to mortal warriors, it is like an artifact. The level is not high just to be able to Let mortals use it. Generally speaking, no one will make such a thing, it’s not worth it.”

"Is it nothing special?"

"In mortal terms, it's like building a city wall with gold. Isn't this special enough?"

The Heavenly Master asked Jiang Li this question, and Jiang Li understood it immediately.

Then she took the shield back.

"If a cave collapses or rocks fall when we enter, our shield will come in handy."

"it's useless."

Li Di said this to Jiang Li, and then said again.

"The most dangerous thing about the collapse of a tomb is not that falling rocks will kill people, but that all roads are blocked. You can still breathe and live, but there is no space to move, no food, no light, and you can only be there hoping that someone can Come to save you, then gradually give up the idea, and finally just wait there to die."

Li spoke in detail, and Li Tian patted him on the shoulder and hugged him in his direction.

The people present forgot for a moment that the two people in front of them were tomb robbers.

The tomb robbing officially started on the second day.

At the entrance, Li Tian said to several people.

"If it is an ordinary tomb, I can be very familiar with it. I have also been to some evil tombs. But in that kind of evil tomb, there is only a 30% chance that the tomb robber will survive and be able to come out with the burial objects. There is no possibility of success. What’s more, this is a great opportunity. The two of us can only guide the general direction, but I still need your help for the specifics."

"Then can we not go in? We will definitely die."

The cook at the back raised his hand and asked, representing his younger brothers.

Ouyang Qian only pulled out her sword a little, and the cook put his hand down.

Jiang Li looked at them.

"You go in first. You can live a little longer, but if we go in, you can still join forces to kill us and run away."

"How dare we?"

With a smile on his face, the cook still pushed the two boys in.

Jiang Li and others also followed and walked in.

From the outside, the cave is completely dark and nothing can be seen. Li Tian first threw a torch in. After waiting for a while and making sure that the torch inside was still burning, they walked in.

After entering, it was also dark, and they had no idea whether they were walking in a straight line. Li Tian's compass had no effect here at all. The Heavenly Master took out a talisman, but it failed to illuminate the entire cave.

The torches could only illuminate their feet.

After walking for a while, they suddenly saw what seemed to be a bright light in front of them.

For Li Tian and Li Di, this is counter-intuitive. At first, the bright light might mean the exit, but they calculated their steps and it was possible that they had reached the entrance. Secondly. Next to the torch, it was almost impossible for them to see the faint light.

But the robbers didn't know that. All they know is that light means hope.

The group of people speeded up again and rushed to the bright light, but only then did they realize that this was not the exit.

But a real tomb.

This space is as big as two Jinluan Halls and can accommodate hundreds of people. It seems that there is nothing around it, except that there is a door in front of it.

It looks like you can see countless treasures when you open the door.

And not just one, but eight doors.

Each of these eight doors is one foot high and five feet wide, and the material seems to be stone. There are also writings on the doors.

Birth, old age, illness, death, meeting of resentments and hatreds, parting from love, failure to seek, the five yins are blazing.

"Eight Bitter Arrays..."

Jiang Li looked at this and said something silently, and the Heavenly Master next to him heard it.

"You know this?"

"I don't know if that's true, but I've seen the Eight Sufferings Formation before. Aren't there also the Eight Sufferings up here?"

"what is that?"

Ouyang Qian asked Jiang Li, and then Jiang Li pointed forward.

"The words on these eight doors are the Eight Sufferings of Buddhism, the eight kinds of pain that are inherent in life. My guess is that whichever door you enter, you will experience which one."

Tianshi also agreed with this, but Li Tian didn't think so.

"But something's not right..."

Li Tian looked at these words, continued to think about them, and then said.

"It stands to reason that if this is really the case, it cannot be written explicitly so that people have a choice. Either it is random, or the levels are the same, and everyone has to experience it again. Such a door appears in a tomb, Very unreasonable.”

"... Let's try opening the door first. We still don't know what is behind the door."

After Jiang Li said this, he walked to the door and looked around, but he didn't see any mechanism.

She pushed the door twice more. With her current strength, it would be difficult to push away such a big rock, but it would be possible.

But the door didn't move.

So she turned back to those people and said.

"How about we go back? It seems like this door can't be opened."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bixi's big sword swung over. (End of chapter)
