The viscous organs and green blood spread across the bluestone bricks of the tomb passage.

The next instant, a large number of lice swarmed over and frantically bit, leaving nothing behind, just like a locust swarm passing through!

.........

Wu Tianjiao turned around and looked ahead, and was instantly astonished!

Where is the main force ahead?

"There was no one in front of the tomb passage!"

"What the hell is going on?"

.........

At the end of the dark and gloomy tomb passage, darkness reigned.

With their eyes unable to see anything clearly in the darkness ahead, Wu Tianjiao pulled Wu Xie with one hand and ran forward desperately.

On the back of his other hand, the Flying Tiger Claw of the Mountain Moving Taoist grew out. The extremely sharp blade tore through the lice without leaving a trace of flesh or green blood.

As he ran at high speed, the headlamp on Wu Xie's head flickered on and off, bobbing up and down with the swaying of his body.

"Wu Xie! Do you have a flashlight on you? Give me one!"

"I need a high-beam flashlight!"

Wu Tianjiao's face was gloomy, and he spoke rapidly, just then.

"squeak"

Two strange noises rang out, and two more lice leaped out from the dark swarm of insects, swooping down from the side towards Wu Tianjiao's neck.

A flash of murderous intent appeared in Wu Tianjiao's eyes, and his right hand flew up, unleashing two consecutive silver claw strikes with ferocious force.

The tiger tore apart the louse's body, tilted its head back slightly, and sprayed the louse's sticky green blood diagonally onto the bluestone wall beside it, following the edge of the tiger's claw.

"Yes...I have some, let me think..."

"Yes! The high-powered flashlight is in my right pocket."

Wu Xie's face was flushed, and the intense exercise made him speak incoherently. He reached into his coat pocket with his free hand and handed the flashlight to the other person.

Wu Tianjiao reacted quickly, turning on his powerful flashlight and shining it into the distance.

The scene unfolded before my eyes, and at the end of the tomb passage, about three hundred meters away, there were two forks.

The fork in the road is arc-shaped, which can be clearly determined by the direction of the surrounding bluestone bricks.

On one hand, I was thinking about the Northeast, and on the other hand, I was thinking about writing about the North.

The two curved intersections have an angle of about sixty degrees.

At the same time, Wu Tianjiao suddenly realized that Wang Yueban, Luo Weier, and the others must have entered one of the tomb passages.

As they rounded the bend, their headlamps were blocked by the angle formed by the bluestone bricks, which was the real reason they lost track of the people ahead.

"Tsk..."

"Multiple choice? Two options?"

"Left or right!"

Wu Tianjiao pondered to himself, but the swarm of lice behind him was like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami crashing down, leaving him no time to think.

Wu Tianjiao could clearly see that the lice were only about two meters away from him and Wu Xie.

No!

If this continues, we'll definitely be caught by lice, and the two of us will perish together.

As if sensing something in the darkness, Wu Xie raised his head and gave a bitter smile:

"Brother Wu Tianjiao, let go, thank you!"

"I, Wu Xie, am already very grateful that you thought of helping me in this critical moment. Now it seems that I am the one dragging you down. If you don't let go, we will die together!"

"Brother Qin, your life-saving grace...in the next life..."

...............

"shut up!"

Wu Tianjiao immediately opened his mouth and roared.

At a time like this, Wu Xie still has to put on a "bitter act"!

Please!

....... ......... .......

Wu Xie, you're so naive. We're really on the run now, not rehearsing a movie. And no audience will shed tears for your brotherhood.

Instead of wasting your energy playing the emotional card, you'd be better off putting all your strength into running away as fast as you can.

Wu Tianjiao inwardly grumbled, but he also knew that Wu Xie was a sentimental person who liked to get emotional, but he couldn't let him interfere right now.

The countdown for the task in my mind had five minutes left.

Just hold on for another five minutes and the protection mission will be complete!

However, the reality is clear: he and Wu Xie will be caught by the swarm of lice within five minutes.

"Are we only able to use the items we obtained before?"

Wu Tianjiao subconsciously looked at his equipment inventory: Corrosion Charm, Soul-Soothing Charm, and Phosphorescent Tube.

The Soul-Soothing Talisman is clearly unsuitable for this place. As someone who is well-versed in online novels, Wu Tianjiao can tell from the text that this item is related to mental power.

As for General Faqiu's phosphorescent tube, forget about it; Wu Tianjiao still doesn't understand what that thing is.

The worst part is that this system doesn't even provide instructions on how to use the reward items.

Forget about the last one, let's just try it as a last resort.

...........

Immediately, with a thought, a pale yellow, ancient talisman appeared out of thin air in Wu Tianjiao's palm.

Chapter 191: The Burial Sites of the Qin Empire Are Not a Beneficial Place

Upon handling the talisman, Wu Tianjiao felt a faint warmth lingering on it. In a trance, he sensed that simply throwing the talisman would unleash its power.

Hey!

This thing is pretty good; it doesn't require biting your tongue and spitting out blood like in the movies, before activating the talisman.

......

As the lice behind them drew closer, Wu Tianjiao suddenly exerted force with his left hand, pulling Wu Xie forcefully towards the fork in the tomb passage on his right.

He turned around and forcefully slapped the Corrosive Talisman at the swarm of lice behind him!

The moment the Corrosion Talisman left Wu Tianjiao's palm, the fire vanished naturally.

The next instant, a bluish-green mist spread out to both sides from the talisman as the center.

The lice closest to the green miasma were instantly corroded as if they had encountered highly corrosive sulfuric acid, leaving behind a viscous green blood and wisps of blue smoke.

It emitted an unusually pungent and foul stench!

Without exception, the entire army of lice was blocked outside the green miasma. They seemed to possess a certain degree of dangerous instinct; after a large number of the vanguard lice died, they all stopped in place and slowly retreated.

In just a few breaths, it completely disappeared from Wu Tianjiao's sight.

............

"Hey! This system-rewarded Corrosion Talisman is surprisingly effective!"

"The lice were completely corroded away with just a touch!"

But just then, Wu Tianjiao noticed that the dense blue miasma was slowly spreading towards him!

"Hiss! This Corrosive Miasma Talisman is actually an area-of-effect attack, a random attack that doesn't distinguish between friend and foe."

Seeing this, Wu Tianjiao no longer hesitated and turned to run into the bluestone brick entrance on the right side of the tomb passage.

...........

Following the bluestone path around a bend, Wu Tianjiao saw Wu Xie lying motionless on the ground.

"Brother Tian! Go quickly, don't worry about me!"

"Bringing me along will only be a burden to you! If I cause your death because of this, I will die with regrets..."

Wu Xie's cheeks were flushed red from the intense exercise, and under Wu Tianjiao's flashlight beam, they appeared even more sickly.

.........

Wu Tianjiao ignored Wu Xie's urgent urging. He walked to Wu Xie's side, untied the other's bundle, took out a water bottle, and handed it to him.

"Drink some water! To ease your physical condition."

“We are safe now. Just now, for some reason, the lice that were chasing us retreated all at the fork in the road and did not actually follow us in.”

Wu Xie was taken aback. Although he didn't quite believe what Wu Tianjiao said, he could hear that the screeching sound of lice rubbing against the bluestone bricks was indeed gone.

Only then did he feel relieved and drink the water that Wu Tianjiao handed him in big gulps!
