Hu Bayi's abilities were ultimately limited; he failed to discover the presence of groundwater, which instead revealed a hidden, dark area.

The so-called "internal hidden cavity" is commonly known as the "coffin gushing".

The situation here is an extremely rare case of an inner tomb. There is a spring in the tomb below, and the water flow of this spring is always large, but it will never overflow or dry up. In feng shui, this kind of tomb is considered to have a very auspicious sign of storing treasures.

Normally, the inner essence originates from the sky, like the waves of water.

Therefore, this type of inner chamber is extremely suitable for burying women, so that their descendants will surely receive blessings.

Bai Jing couldn't understand why King Wen would choose this place as his tomb.

However, a learned man like King Wen must have had his reasons for doing this, especially since Li Chunfeng originally intended to use this place as his tomb.

Considering all these factors, Bai Jing was certain that the Inner Cave was definitely not as simple as he had imagined.

While Bai Jing and Hu Bayi were observing the overall situation and atmosphere of the area, they did not notice that Da Jin Ya and Fatty had climbed up the nearby mountain at some point.

Just as Bai Jing and Hu Bayi continued to observe the situation, they heard a cry for help in the distance.

Upon hearing this voice, Bai Jing and Hu Bayi exchanged a glance.

It’s broken, something happened!

Chapter 198 Encountering Danger in the Labyrinth

Bai Jing immediately looked into the distance, but there was no one there.

Immediately, Bai Jing and Hu Bayi ran towards the direction of the cries for help.

But when they got there, they saw the fat man digging at the ground, his body completely sunk into the earth.

Upon seeing this, Bai Jing and Hu Bayi rushed over.

When the fat man saw them coming, he suddenly relaxed and fell down.

Seeing this, Bai Jing and Hu Bayi were both bewildered.

Immediately afterwards, Hu Bayi's face suddenly turned fierce, and he was about to jump into one of the pits.

Bai Jing quickly tried to pull Hu Bayi away.

Upon seeing this, Hu Bayi exclaimed excitedly, "Old Bai, Fatty and Old Jin must have fallen into this cave. If we don't go save them soon, it will be too late!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Jing said directly, "We should save people, but we need to be careful about the methods. If I'm not mistaken, this area should also be within the tomb's boundaries. There's no need for us to take any risks. We just need to find the tunnel dug by that senior and go in through it."

Hearing Bai Jing's words, Hu Bayi agreed, and the two of them immediately rushed towards the Fishbone Temple.

As soon as Bai Jing entered the Fishbone Temple, he said, "The tomb robber's hole should be in a place where no one usually goes. Search carefully, and you'll definitely find it."

Upon hearing Bai Jing's words, Hu Bayi quickly began searching. A short while later, Bai Jing called out, "Old Hu, come here, the entrance is here."

Upon hearing this, Hu Bayi rushed over.

It turns out that the location of this tomb robbery tunnel was actually under the statue of the god.

The two then entered the tomb and crawled inside.

The tunnel was quite long, and Bai Jing crawled for several minutes before seemingly finding a lid. He then forcefully slammed the lid down.

The next moment, a spacious area was revealed behind the lid.

This must be inside the tomb.

As Bai Jing crawled out of the tomb through the hole, he heard a scream coming from inside the tomb.

Bai Jing quickly called out to his back, "Old Hu, Fatty and Old Jin must be in danger. I'll go save them first."

As he spoke, Bai Jing rushed out first.

Hu Bayi didn't dare to delay and quickly followed.

When Bai Jing rushed out, he saw a figure rushing past him. Upon seeing this, Bai Jing immediately grabbed the person. It was none other than the fat man.

The fat man was startled when he was suddenly grabbed, but after realizing it was Bai Jing, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Old Bai, hurry and save Old Jin. Old Jin seems to have seen something and is crawling around in fright."

Then, at that moment, Hu Bayi also arrived.

Just then, a figure ran past Bai Jing and the others.

Bai Jing caught him on the spot; it was none other than Big Gold Tooth.

Big Gold Tooth seemed to have been provoked by something and was shouting and yelling.

Seeing this, Bai Jing quickly delivered a chop to Da Jin Ya's neck, instantly knocking him unconscious.

Then Bai Jing checked the condition of the gold tooth and said, "It must have been bitten by something."

Suddenly, Bai Jing squatted down, looked at the things on the ground, and picked them up.

He picked up a small dumpling, looked at it, and then threw it into Big Gold Tooth's mouth.

The fat man was puzzled by this scene and immediately asked, "Old Bai, what did you give Old Jin to eat?"

Before Bai Jing could answer, Hu Bayi said, "Night-shining sand."

Upon hearing this unfamiliar name, the fat man became even more confused. Hu Bayi then laughed and said, "It's bat droppings. I think Old Jin was bitten by one of these bats. Give him Night-Shining Sand, which can detoxify him."

Upon hearing this, the fat man looked like he wanted to laugh but was holding it in.

Then, just as the group was about to leave, Bai Jing smelled something: "Wait a minute, come with me first."

Suddenly, a squeaking sound came out, and the fat man immediately shouted, "Old Bai, it's a bat! Quick, think of something!"

Seeing this, Bai Jing remained calm. He then took out the Eyeless Rat Talisman, made a hand seal, and said, "Everyone, stand against the wall and don't make a sound!"

After saying that, Bai Jing leaned against the wall.

Seeing this, the others quickly followed suit.

The bats, seemingly unable to spot Bai Jing and his companions any longer, scurried past them and flew off in all directions.

While the Eyeless Rat Talisman doesn't possess the same powerful offensive capabilities as the Eyeless Dragon Talisman or the Eyeless Fire Talisman, it can be used in conjunction with spells to reduce the presence of both the caster and the target.

As the saying goes, "a mouse cannot see itself," meaning that if one cannot even see oneself, how can one expect others to see them?

After a good ten minutes, the riotous bats quieted down.

At this moment, Big Gold Tooth also woke up. Fatty saw this and immediately laughed, "Haha, this stuff really works fast. That's why they say, 'the one who tied the knot must untie it,' hahaha."

Hearing what the fat man said, Bai Jing and Hu Bayi couldn't help but laugh.

Big Gold Tooth, still a bit confused, asked, "Gentlemen, what's wrong with me?"

Fatty was about to recount the events to Big Gold Tooth, but Bai Jing stopped him.

However, what Big Gold Tooth said the next moment left Bai Jing, Hu Bayi, and Fatty speechless.

Big Gold Tooth smacked his lips and then remarked, "The sticky mouth actually smells pretty good."

Upon hearing this, Bai Jing and the other two naturally displayed different expressions.

However, no one hesitated and followed Bai Jing.

Bai Jing quickly smelled a familiar scent.

They then followed the direction from which the smell was coming.

In a short while, they came to see a large cauldron.

The moment they saw the large cauldron, Fatty and Big Gold Tooth's eyes lit up.

Big Gold Tooth immediately stepped forward, examined the cauldron, and confirmed, "This cauldron must be from the early Western Zhou Dynasty."

Bai Jing stepped forward and examined the writing on the body, then began to read it.

He then said, "This tripod records the legend of King Wen developing the Eight Trigrams, and judging from the shape of the characters, it is very likely a creation from the late Shang Dynasty or early Zhou Dynasty."

Upon hearing Bai Jing's words, Big Gold Tooth looked at the cauldron again and exclaimed, "That must have been three thousand years ago. Did they really have such smelting technology back then?"

Bai Jing then circled the cauldron again, but only found one side with writing on it; the rest of the sides were decorated with various animal patterns and other ornaments.

However, even if this tripod only records King Wen's development of the Eight Trigrams, it is still a priceless treasure.

However, Bai Jing's purpose in coming here was not this cauldron.

Then, Bai Jing's gaze settled on a cave nearby.

Chapter 199 Scented Jade and the Tomb Raider Talisman

At that moment, the fat man suddenly asked, "Hey? Can you smell something delicious?"

Then the fat man saw Bai Jing standing in front of a hole.

When the fat man saw Bai Jing's expression, he immediately knew that Bai Jing must have also smelled the scent.

The fat man immediately asked, "Old Bai, did you smell it too?"

Bai Jing nodded and said, "It smells like the fragrance of jade."

Big Gold Tooth was also surprised to hear Bai Jing's words and immediately asked, "Are you sure it's Scented Jade?"

Bai Jing nodded and then said, "I went to Hanzhong once before and received a piece of fragrant jade from a local. I can't be mistaken, it smells like fragrant jade."

Upon hearing this, several people gathered around.
