Chapter 474 A Bright and Clean Scene
"Hehe, I do know some things about this tomb."

Gao Dongxu had already untied the upper body of the jade figurine. He shook off the sticky, peeling skin on his gloves with a hint of disgust, and while talking, he reached out and called Fugui over, asking him to put the upper body of the jade figurine into his backpack.

Fu Gui immediately took off his backpack, turned it inside out, emptied everything out, and carefully put the upper body jade figurine into the backpack.

Everyone stared intently at the jade figurine, then at the blackened, damp, and disgusting corpse, as Gao Dongxu continued, "This tomb belongs to King Mu of Zhou... Yes, the King Mu of Zhou who had an affair with the Queen Mother of the West. Legend has it that this jade figurine was a gift of immortality given to King Mu of Zhou by the Queen Mother of the West."

The blood corpse in the coffin we first encountered was King Mu of Zhou, the original owner of this jade figurine. When King Shang of Lu was tomb raiding, he discovered him, removed the jade figurine, and King Mu of Zhou became a blood corpse.

Legend has it that wearing this jade figurine will cause it to shed its skin every five hundred years, and only during this shedding process can the jade figurine be removed; otherwise, it will turn into a blood corpse.

"Young Master Gao, didn't you just say that this is Iron-Faced Sheng?" Wu Xie asked, frowning.

"That's right, King Lu Shang usurped the throne, wanting to use the jade terracotta warrior to gain immortality, but he was stabbed at the last moment by Iron-Faced Sheng, who had faked his death and escaped. Iron-Faced Sheng became the final winner. As for King Lu Shang, you've all met him..."

"The headless mummified corpse inside the bronze cauldron?!" Pan Zi suddenly exclaimed, his eyes wide.

"Who exactly are you?!" Zhang Qiling suddenly moved. Under the watchful eyes of Leng Feng, Erpang, and the others, he walked up to Gao Dongxu, who had already removed the lower half of the jade terracotta warrior, and asked in a deep voice.

Gao Dongxu looked up at Zhang Qiling, smiled, shook off the lower half of the jade figurine which was covered in molted skin, beckoned Erpang over, and handed him the jade figurine.

“I have several identities, but I like three the most: a powerful and influential second-generation official, a billionaire with a clean record, and an antique dealer who is best at finding bargains,” Gao Dongxu said to Zhang Qiling with a smile.

Zhang Qiling's eyes remained expressionless as he stared at him without blinking.

"Don't look at me like that. I'm not your enemy. Don't forget you still owe me three favors..." Gao Dongxu laughed as he ripped off the jade terracotta warrior's head. Looking at Tie Miansheng's disgusting face, he glanced at Zhang Qiling and chuckled, "He doesn't have tattoos?"

Zhang Qiling's pupils dilated again, his lips moved a few times, and finally he said, "What else do you know?"

"I know quite a bit. Like I said, if you want to know, trade me what I want, and I guarantee you'll be satisfied!" Gao Dongxu said with a smile.

"...Including my background!" Zhang Qiling stared intently at Gao Dongxu and said in a trembling voice.

“I do know some things, but one problem at a time, so when you’re ready, you can come to the capital to find me,” Gao Dongxu said with a raised eyebrow and a smile.

Zhang Qiling was now in a state of shock. He reached out and grabbed Gao Dongxu's wrist, his voice trembling as he said, "Tell me who my mother is, and I promise to give you the Hidden Sea Flower—"

Tibetan Sea Flower?!

Upon hearing this name, everyone silently memorized it, especially Aning.

Everyone knows that what comes out of the mouths of Gao Dongxu and Zhang Qiling, the two most mysterious people, is no ordinary thing.

"This question, ten plants." Gao Dongxu smiled at Zhang Qiling.

"Okay!" Zhang Qiling was very excited and agreed without hesitation.

Gao Dongxu smiled and waved. The two leaned closer through the coffin, and Gao Dongxu whispered in Zhang Qiling's ear, "Your mother's name was Baima, and she was a Tibetan doctor!"

Zhang Qiling's pupils dilated, and he stood there frozen, his lips moving in a daze as he silently murmured "Bai Ma".

Just as everyone was watching the distraught Zhang Qiling, Fusheng suddenly shouted, "Boss, that piece of cloth keeps moving!"

Everyone turned to look at the cloth covering the bronze-masked male corpse on the jade bed, and all the flashlight beams focused on the jade bed.

Sure enough, the cloth was moving constantly, as if something was moving underneath it.

Everyone then looked at Gao Dongxu with curiosity, wondering why he had covered the male corpse's head with a cloth from the beginning.

Gao Dongxu's face turned extremely ugly. He hadn't expected that even without cutting off the head of the Blue-Eyed Fox Corpse, he still couldn't stop the Corpse Beetle King from appearing.

"Everyone, get your realgar ready, sprinkle talcum powder on yourselves, climb the trees, hurry up—"

As soon as he finished speaking, while everyone was still a little confused, a very small red corpse beetle crawled out from under the cloth.

The little red corpse beetle suddenly squeaked twice and shook its wings. As if it had seen them, it suddenly spread its wings and flew towards Gao Dongxu and the others.

At this moment, Zhang Qiling, who had recovered from his daze, also changed his expression drastically and shouted in a hoarse voice: "It's poisonous! One touch and you'll die! Get out of the way!"

The little red corpse beetle squeaked and charged towards Wang Fusheng.

Wang Fusheng's expression immediately changed drastically. Fortunately, he had obediently opened his waist pouch and was already holding a realgar packet in his hand. Seeing the flying corpse beetle king, he was terrified and immediately raised the realgar packet high, tearing it open with both hands. The realgar immediately flew out in front of him.

"Om-"

The little red corpse beetle made a turn, bypassing the shower of realgar powder, and charged straight at Fatty Wang.

At this moment, Leng Feng and the others were already frantically taking out realgar powder and starting to spray it.

"Damn it, don't come at me!"

The fat man, who had no realgar powder, cursed as he watched the Corpse Beetle King fly towards him. He then swung his entrenching tool and, with incredible precision, shoveled the Corpse Beetle King away like a baseball.

Zhang Qiling shouted, "No!" But it was too late. The fat man swung his entrenching tool to finish off the Corpse Beetle King, which slammed to the ground and was smashed to pieces by the next shovel.

For a moment, the cave was deathly silent; not a sound could be heard. Zhang Qiling suddenly grabbed a handful of talcum powder, tore it open, and sprinkled it on himself, yelling, "Run! Run up the tree, or it'll be too late!"

"Run!" Gao Dongxu shouted. Without saying a word, Leng Feng and the other three ran towards the Nine-Headed Cypress and began to climb up the vines.

Without the slightest hesitation, A Ning took the talcum powder that Gao Dongxu had thrown to her earlier, sprinkled it on herself, and gritted her teeth as she ran towards the Nine-Headed Cypress with her injured leg.

The fat man glanced at Leng Feng and the others who had already climbed the tree, then looked around and, finding nothing had happened, looked at Wu Xie dumbly and asked, "Why did you run?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the previously quiet cave suddenly became noisy, with countless squeaking sounds coming from all directions. Then, Wu Xie, Fatty, and the others saw one, two, three, ten, and a hundred countless blue corpse beetles rushing out of the caves of all sizes on the rock. The scale was indescribable. Wave after wave, those in front trampled those behind, crawling over the sky and covering everything.

Wu Xie was stunned. Wu Sansheng's face turned deathly pale. He slapped Wu Xie on the back of the head and yelled, "Run!"

At this moment, Fatty Wang wanted to pick up the purple jade box that Iron-Faced Man had been using as a pillow. Wu Sansheng shouted, "Are you out of your mind?!" When Fatty Wang saw that he couldn't move it, he jumped up and rushed towards the Nine-Headed Cypress with a resentful shout.

Ignoring the surging tide of corpse beetles from all directions, Gao Dongxu ran like the wind to the jade bed, reached out and touched it, and with a thought...

"receive!"

The enormous jade bed, along with the desiccated female corpse and the blue-eyed fox corpse, was stored in the space.

Then, as Gao Dongxu ran towards the jade coffin lid, he took out a Molotov cocktail from his spatial storage, lit it with a lighter, and threw it in front of the bronze coffin without hesitation.

"boom--"

"Boom—" Flames erupted.

"boom--"

"boom--"

Wu Sansheng and the others, who had all climbed the tree, looked down curiously. They saw that the huge space was filled with a dark mass of corpse beetles. Gao Dongxu was throwing Molotov cocktails to create a space, seemingly buying them time.

"Stop looking, climb up quickly—" Gao Dongxu shouted sternly.

The people in the tree were deeply moved and quickly climbed to the top.

Gao Dongxu quickly took the jade coffin lid, and in the end, he didn't even spare the bronze coffin.

Zhizhizhizhi——

Finally, the swarm of corpse beetles, undeterred by death, overwhelmed the wall of fire and swept towards Gao Dongxu.

Without the slightest hesitation, Gao Dongxu drew his Embroidered Spring Blade, gathered his inner energy, and dashed toward the trunk of the Nine-Headed Serpent Cypress, stepping directly onto the trunk and charging up.

After rushing seven or eight meters, he grabbed a vine, gathered his inner energy, and kicked off the tree trunk, propelling himself into the air. At the same time, he wielded his Embroidered Spring Blade to cut the vines that were blocking his momentum.

Everyone stared at Gao Dongxu, who had suddenly rushed in front of them, his mouth agape and his eyes wide as he crawled forward.

"Hurry up, the carrion beetle swarm is catching up!" Gao Dongxu plunged a knife into a tree trunk, hanging from it with one hand. In his other hand, he had somehow acquired a C4 explosive with a detonator strapped to it, which he held between his legs. With his free hand, he took out a lighter and lit the fuse.

"Fuck——"

Upon seeing this, everyone's expressions changed drastically again, and they frantically climbed upwards using both hands and feet.

By this time, the entire swarm of corpse beetles had rushed to the base of the tree. Looking down, the ground beneath the tree was a dark, bluish-black color; if one were to fall, not a single bone would remain.

The corpse beetles seemed to gather consciously for a moment, and then suddenly began to jump up. They climbed the tree very quickly.

Gao Dongxu threw the explosives down, then grabbed a vine with one hand, drew his Embroidered Spring Blade, gathered his inner energy, kicked the tree trunk hard, and pulled the vine with all his might, propelling himself into the air once again.

"Holy crap, Young Master Gao, you cheated—" Fatty Wang shouted as he watched Gao Dongxu fly in front of him.

"Climb up quickly, hold on tight, it's going to explode—" Gao Dongxu shouted, hanging from a tree branch with one hand and holding onto a thick vine with the other.

No sooner had the words left his mouth than a deafening roar erupted, sending corpse beetles flying everywhere and a massive wave of heat surging forth, nearly blasting everyone away.

Fortunately, Gao Dongxu's warning bought them some time, even though the shockwave made their internal organs churn.

However, Gao Dongxu, seeing the swarm of corpse beetles that had filled the gap, shouted, "Everyone, throw Molotov cocktails—we can't outrun them—"

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately stopped, took out Molotov cocktails, lit them, and began throwing them down from the tree.

Soon, a raging fire broke out under the tree, and waves of heat, along with a foul stench, swept up and rose.

"Keep climbing—"

The group began to climb desperately. As they got closer to the crack at the top, and seeing that they were about to escape, they climbed even faster, and soon they were up there.
