“Miss Aning, you’ve seen it all, haven’t you? Your friend has started to turn his back on even his closest relatives.”
"Brother Tian and Brother Xiao really helped you just now."
Aning collapsed to the ground, speechless, but her fists were clenched tightly together.
My feelings are incredibly complicated.
She was unwilling to believe this reality, yet reality was right in front of her.
"By the way, Fatty, what are you doing here?" Wu Xie asked, looking at Fatty.
Wu Xie had only met the fat man in front of him once and didn't know much about him, only that he was an antique enthusiast.
It's strange that he's here.
The fat man shone his flashlight on A Ning and raised his head. "I've been following this little girl all the way here. When I saw these people on the grassland, I knew they weren't good people. Now that I see them, they really are no good."
Ah Ning turned her head and looked at him coldly.
"What? Did I say something wrong, Fatty? You guys are a bunch of international tomb raiders who want to resell our country's things to other countries."
The fat man said irritably.
Although he was also in the business of tomb raiding, he at least had principles and bottom lines. He would never sell his ancestors' things to foreigners.
"Alright, Fatty, shut up. By the way, Fatty, since you came with them, you must have arrived before us. Did you find any clues? Where exactly is the main tomb chamber?" Wu Xie asked.
The fat man shook his head.
"That King Lu Shang is treacherous and cunning; who knows where he's put himself?" He then muttered a complaint under his breath, "If Fatty can't find the Ghost Seal, then this whole trip will have been for nothing."
Although the fat man's voice was soft, Wu Xie still heard it.
"What fat guy? You mean the Ghost Seal? So the Ghost Seal really does exist."
Wu Xie shone his flashlight on Fatty. "Fatty, you're not being honest."
"I... I didn't do anything dishonest," the fat man said, sounding a little guilty.
"Fatty, I just never fight a battle unprepared. Since I've come with them, I should know what their purpose is in coming here."
Wu Xie frowned; what the fat man said seemed to make some sense.
"Then tell me, what exactly is the Ghost Seal?"
The fat man walked up a stone step and sat down.
"Since you want to hear it, then I, Fatty, will tell you."
Just as he was about to show off, he suddenly remembered something, clasped his hands in a respectful bow to Wu Tianjiao and Zhang Qiling, and said, "You two great masters, please excuse my foolishness. He asked me to say this."
"Are you going to tell me or not?" Wu Xie asked impatiently.
Chapter 194: Brother Tian, you lost the bet.
"Of course I'll talk."
Of course, he wanted to put on a good show in front of his idol.
"Let me tell you, this King Lu Shang is less of a general and more of a tomb raider. Legend has it that his army rests during the day and marches at night, often disappearing in one place and then suddenly reappearing in another."
"The places where it emerged were mostly cemeteries. In ancient times, people were very superstitious. It is said that King Lu Shang had a treasure that could allow ghostly soldiers to pass through."
"This treasure should be the Ghost Seal that this young woman and her group are looking for."
As he spoke, the fat man stood up. "I can't say for sure whether this Ghost Seal can allow ghost soldiers to pass through, but I know that Ghost Seal will definitely be very valuable."
Wu Xie looked thoughtfully at A Ning and asked, "A Ning, have you found the Ghost Seal?"
Ah Ning hesitated for a long time before finally speaking, "No."
Wu Xie walked up to Wu Tianjiao and asked, "Brother Tian, where exactly is the main tomb chamber 740?"
"We don't have much time left. Didn't the young man say we have to get out before dark?" You can't get out.
At this moment, Ah Ning suddenly spoke, and her breathing gradually became a little rapid.
"We are in a maze, and we can't find the exit at all."
The fat man shone his flashlight on Ah Ning, "You're the one who can't get out of here. We have Brother Tian by our side. Do you know who Brother Tian is?"
Ah Ning glanced at Wu Tianjiao, then fell silent, looking pained.
"Brother Tian, look, she's a girl, let's help her."
Wu Xie said.
"Hey Wu Xie, how can you be so naive? Do you think this is a TV drama? There's a time and place for a hero to save the damsel in distress," the fat man said.
Wu Tianjiao frowned. "She really can't die right now."
Wu Tianjiao took out a pill and handed it to Wu Xie.
Wu Xie was stunned for a moment, then ran to A Ning's side.
Actually, Wu Xie's reason for wanting to help A Ning was not, as Fatty claimed, a case of a hero rescuing a damsel in distress.
He just felt he owed Aning a life, and he was simply repaying it to her.
When her subordinate, Old A, tried to shoot him, it was Ah Ning who stopped him.
Although Wu Tianjiao saved him in the end, he wouldn't have been able to wait for Wu Tianjiao to appear if it weren't for A Ning.
After Wu Xie gave A Ning the pill, Wu Tianjiao checked his watch and said, "It's getting dark, we need to find the main tomb chamber as soon as possible."
Wu Xie and the others nodded, then prepared to leave. "Wu Xie, you're not going to take her with you, are you?"
Fatty was somewhat surprised when he saw Wu Xie help A Ning up.
Should we help someone to the very end, or see them through to the end?
"Wu Xie said. The fat man shook his head helplessly. No wonder Brother Tian calls you Tianzhen. You really are an innocent little naivety."
Upon hearing the fat man's words, Wu Tianjiao suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Wu Xie is indeed quite naive right now, but as the story unfolds, he will become increasingly powerful.
Even in the Sand Sea storyline, Wu Xie single-handedly took on the entire Wang family, earning him the nickname "Evil Emperor" in the martial arts world. Wu Tianjiao was quite looking forward to seeing Wu Xie at that time.
Just then, a system notification sounded in Wu Tianjiao's mind.
[Ding! A new system task has been issued: help the young man obtain the Ghost Seal, then lead the entire team away. The host will receive the god-level skill [Scattering Beans to Create Soldiers].]
Wu Tianjiao was stunned when he heard the latest task issued by the system.
He didn't understand why the system would assign him such a task.
Does this guy, who's so powerful, need my help to get the Ghost Seal?
It seems the next level will be quite difficult.
However, the system rewards are really nice.
The Ghost Seal can summon ghostly soldiers, but he can conjure soldiers from beans.
Absolutely divine skill.
It's hard to say who will come out on top.
However, since the Ghost Seal is the key to opening the Bronze Gate, it should naturally be obtained by the young man; there's no question about that.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Qiling asked as he walked up to Wu Tianjiao.
Wu Tianjiao shook his head. "It's alright. You're more familiar with this place, so you can lead the way."
Zhang Qiling was stunned for a moment.
Looking at Wu Tianjiao, if he only knew the Lu Palace inside and out, then Wu Tianjiao knew him inside and out.
Although he didn't know how Wu Tianjiao knew so much about him.
But what does it matter? Between brothers, there should naturally be unconditional trust.
For twenty-two years, he had forgotten almost everything, except for Wu Tianjiao, who was deeply engraved in his mind.
From that moment on, he knew that Wu Tianjiao would be a very important person in his life.
Perhaps he won't have to be alone anymore.
Zhang Qiling didn't speak, but left. After a few steps, he suddenly stopped. "Brother Tian, you lost today's bet."
Chapter 195: Fatty, Stubborn to the end
Wu Tianjiao was stunned for a moment, then realized what was going on.
He hurriedly chased after Zhang Qiling, saying, "Hey, bro, you can't do this! You know perfectly well that it was just an accident. If Cheng Yaojin hadn't suddenly appeared out of nowhere, the outcome would have been uncertain."
"Over here, over here..."
Zhang Qiling walked in front, with Wu Tianjiao and the others following behind him.
Aning is right, the place they are in now is indeed like a maze.
Wu Tianjiao, Wu Xie, and the others followed Xiao Ge for an unknown amount of time, navigating countless bends, until they finally stopped in front of a stone wall.
"Brother, what do we do when there's no road ahead?" Panzi asked.
"Go through," Zhang Qiling said in a cool voice.
