Tomb Robbery: Successor to the King, starting in Yunnan Worm Valley

Chapter 485 Rock Mineral Veins
  Several people quickly got down from the stone monument and jumped over the ravine flowing with Yang Sui.

The coffin worms that spewed out from the underground tomb passage finally stopped chasing and stopped moving forward when they reached the Yangsui River.

But soon, tens of thousands of coffin worms, with no head visible at a glance, had gathered at the edge of Yangsui gully.

Wang Ye asked in his heart, where did Long Ying go?
  I originally wanted this guy to come forward and control these bugs, but Long Ying disappeared directly.

At this moment, Wang Ye suddenly heard a system prompt.

"Congratulations to the host for killing the mutated coffin insect queen, gaining +2w experience points and +4w energy points."

Wang Ye's mouth twitched wildly.

You can't really say that Long Ying doesn't do his job.

No, in the blink of an eye, he made a meritorious deed.

On the dark side is a bottomless cliff, which is narrow, silent and dark.

It's easy for people to feel like they've fallen into a trap.

Everyone was frightened along the way.

Wang Ye asked Shirley Yang to focus on taking care of Yao Meier.

Wang Ye didn't care about the others, but Yao Meier was indeed tricked by everyone.

A little girl who had never had any experience in fighting from the grave and worked as a saleswoman in a shop in a small town was deceived by everyone and ended up going through life and death underground, terrified.

It doesn't make sense not to take special care of it.

As for other people like Professor Hu Bayi Wang and Fatty Sun, they all have their own agendas, and they are all old foxes for thousands of years, so there is no need for Wang Ye to take care of their psychological fluctuations.

Suddenly, the rock formations above our heads roared for a while.

It sounded like something was collapsing and shattering.

The timid one would have peed long ago.

Mo Meier said with some worry, "Brother Wang Ye, sister Shirley, is the top of this mountain going to collapse?
  Wang Ye smiled, stretched out his hand and rubbed Mo Mei'er's head, "No, the mountain won't collapse for a while, it's probably just the Nine Death Jingling Armor that's coming out."

Originally, it was okay if Wang Ye didn't comfort her, but Mei'er still harbored illusions.

After listening to Wang Ye's considerate comfort, he suddenly became worried. Is it more miserable to be pressed by rocks under a rock formation hundreds of meters or even a thousand meters thick, or to be eaten by a monster like the Nine-Death Jingling Armor?

You can't think about this kind of philosophical issue. As you think about it, the circles in your sister's eyes become red. She keeps mumbling about how her grandfather will be old and has no one to take care of him. She doesn't know who will pay his last respects to him in the future.

Wang Ye knew that the joke had been played and quickly made amends.

"Don't worry, with your brother Wang Ye here, even if the sky falls, I will dig a hole for you to get out of."

Upon hearing this, Mei'er raised her tearful eyes and looked at Wang Ye, "Brother Wang Ye, are you serious? You're not trying to trick me."

Wang Ye puffed up his chest and said, "I'm kidding, your brother Wang Ye is a person who doesn't keep his word. When have you ever seen your brother Wang Ye frown once in this journey?"

Yao Meier felt a little more relieved now, nodded, and followed Wang Ye closely, refusing to leave even half a step no matter what.

Hu Bayi is walking in the front right now.

Hu Bayi was an engineer. He had been digging rocks deep in the mountains for several years. When he saw the rock formations on the nearby cliffs, he couldn't help but start doing geological analysis.

However, it was soon discovered that there was still a lot of soil among the layers of rock veins.

There are many scattered jade stones in the soil.

The further they went, the more jade fragments were scattered among the rocks on the ground.

Moreover, these jade stones are not mineral veins, but processed jade articles.

Hu Bayi even dug it out from the soil layer very quickly. After a little effort, he was able to piece together a small piece of jade.

The jade color of these jade stones is very old and quite mottled, and there are many different kinds of jade stones.    Some are even red, and some are black and green.

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a product of modern times.

It doesn't even resemble the style of the Wuling Yishan King period.

This time, even Wang Ye's interest was aroused. Fatty Wang was naturally full of interest when he saw the good things taking shape.

Soon both of them gathered around Hu Bayi.

"It should be a product of the ancient witchcraft period..." Hu Bayi said casually.

Wang Ye frowned slightly as he listened.

In the ancient tombs in Dixian Village, there are many Ming Dynasty styles of Feng Shigu, and there are also many Qin and Han style remains of Wuling Yishan King.

But Wang Ye knew that here, deep in the mountains, there must be a tomb from a more ancient period.

The most likely possibility is the Wu Xian Tomb, which is also the source of the name of the Wu Gorge area.

Witchcraft has been strong here since ancient times and is even considered one of the birthplaces of witchcraft culture.

It’s not surprising that Wu Xian’s tomb is located in this place.

Witchcraft culture has also done a lot of research on Feng Shui. Even an important origin of ancient Feng Shui is witchcraft Feng Shui.

In this case, it is impossible for these people not to notice that the Coffin Mountain Pangu Vein is a heaven-made, extremely rare and special geomantic treasure.

In Wang Ye's view, there must be secrets of ancient witchcraft culture hidden here.

At the same time, there must be huge and strange risks in the ancient witchcraft civilization here.

Wang Ye remembered watching "Walking at Night by Holding a Candle" in the firelight.

People in Dixian Village were walking on this passage. Under the firelight, they could see that the surrounding cliffs were shining with a translucent red light. Now they looked like jade walls.

And those weird black shadows, ghost-like things, are wandering between the passages and the walls.

Wang Ye thought and looked at the cliff next to him.

A cold and cold wind blew around, and there were ominous sounds of rock cracking everywhere.

Wang Ye's energy detection skills received great interference.

The cliff beside him seemed to have a very strange power, which Wang Ye's energy detection skills could not penetrate.

In Wang Ye's opinion, Wang Ye's perception of what is behind this wall is very vague.

Wang Ye's energy detection skills have rarely encountered this kind of situation before.

But Wang Ye could still vaguely feel that there was indeed something behind the cliff.

"That's right! Fire!" Wang Ye suddenly remembered something.

Since the shadows of ghosts in "Walking with Candles at Night" can only be seen with the help of firelight, then the things on the edge of this weird plank road may also need to be seen with the help of firelight.

It was really inconvenient for Wang Ye to use Ting Erleizi's acupoint identification skills here. The energy detection skills were also affected by the witchcraft arrangement, so he could only rely on logic and Feng Shigu's original tips.

"In addition to these jade stones, there must be some other terrifying things in these rock formations in the Pangu Vein. We must at least know what they are so we can defend against them."

Wang Ye explained.

Hu Bayi had already noticed something was wrong.

The jade here felt unusual, and as an old engineering soldier, Hu Bayi also knew a lot about rock formations and mineral veins.

The rock layering here is outrageous.
