Tomb raiding: Carrying a coffin during a funeral procession, rewarded with the Dragon Elephant Prajn

Sun Xiaomei was more curious about the large black coffin on Li Changsheng's back and couldn't help but ask another question.

Li Changsheng smiled faintly and replied, "This is my livelihood."

Sun Xiaomei didn't understand what it meant, but she didn't delve into it too much.

Silent all night.

The next morning, Li Changsheng got up early and kicked the two people in the car awake as well.

"Get up and get to work."

"What? You've had breakfast?"

Wu Xie rubbed his eyes, still half asleep, and when he saw Li Changsheng all ready to go, he quickly rubbed his face.

"Big brother, where are we going?"

"Let's go into the mountains!"

……

"We can't go into the mountains!"

When Professor Sun and his students learned that Li Changsheng was going to enter Zhelong Mountain, they rushed over to dissuade him.

"Professor Li, you really shouldn't go into the mountains. The tourism bureau staff went there before, and they all ended up spending months in the hospital."

"Yes, we've tested it with instruments. The magnetic field of Zhelong Mountain is disordered, causing compasses and various electronic devices to malfunction. Moreover, there is toxic miasma in the mountain. If you accidentally get caught in it, you'll be half dead, if not dead."

Li Changsheng remained calm and waved his hand, saying, "It's alright, I know what I'm doing."

The tomb of King Xian inside Zhelong Mountain is indeed extremely dangerous.

But that applies to ordinary people.

For Li Changsheng, as long as he didn't encounter those ancient gods, he could basically handle them all easily.

Even if it's the snake god inside the bottomless ghost cave, or the ghost god behind the bronze door, as long as he has time to develop, the problem won't be too big.

In comparison, the King Xian in the tomb is a minor issue!

Hearing Li Changsheng's words, Professor Sun sighed and said, "I won't stop you from going into the mountains. How about this, I'll have my younger sister escort you. She knows a small path that leads directly to the back of the mountain."

Li Changsheng did not refuse, but glanced at Professor Sun and Sun Xiaomei, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up.

Soon, everyone was ready.

Wu Xie didn't know much about Zhelong Mountain and thought he was going on a mountain tour. In addition to the necessary mountaineering equipment, he only brought some snacks in his backpack.

Ma Liang hadn't planned to go, but seeing that Sun Xiaomei had gone, he gritted his teeth and went with her.

As for Li Changsheng, he always went empty-handed, carrying a large black coffin on his back, and he always dressed like this wherever he went.

After the four of them got ready, they went straight to the back of the mountain.

After walking several kilometers along a stream behind the mountain, we arrived at a water cave.

Sun Xiaomei asked Ma Liang to drag a bamboo raft out from nearby.

"The water cave that Professor Sun discovered some time ago can lead directly to the outer edge of Zhelong Mountain. Taking this route will save you most of the journey."

"We originally planned to visit Zhelong Mountain when we had the chance, but the incident with the tourism bureau officials was too frightening, so we gave up on the idea."

At this point, Sun Xiaomei looked at Li Changsheng.

"Professor Li, I'll take you this far. Just follow the stream inside the cave, and you'll reach Zhelong Mountain when you exit the cave."

"Okay, thanks, little sister."

Wu Xie waved his hand and boarded the bamboo raft first.

Only he and Li Changsheng went into the mountains this time. Ma Liang and Sun Xiaomei watched the two of them enter the cave, and then turned around and returned to Zhelong Village.

As the bamboo raft drifted into the cave, the light instantly dimmed.

Wu Xie turned on the flashlight he had prepared beforehand, and then he started talking non-stop.

"Big brother, have you noticed that little sister is ignoring Ma Liang? I guess there's not much hope for Ma Liang."

"Yes, you're quite observant."

"Hey, anyone with eyes can see that."

Wu Xie waved his hand and mentioned some embarrassing things he and Ma Liang did in college.

Ma Liang is a righteous man, but he's not very popular with women. In Wu Xie's words, he's destined to be single.

The two chatted casually for a while, when Wu Xie suddenly changed the subject, saying, "Hey, brother, have you noticed? We really have a knack for this water cave. We encountered a water cave filled with corpses in Yizhou, and now we've run into another one! We can't possibly run into the female puppet again, can we?"

Upon hearing this, Li Changsheng glanced at Wu Xie with slight surprise.

Thinking to myself, you were right!

The water cave in Yizhou has a mass grave of corpses, and this place is no less impressive!

Inside this water cave, there are Gu worms and water pheasants that King Xian arranged, using the corpses of countless pregnant women as carriers to raise the Gu worms.

In terms of the number of corpses, this place even has more than the Yizhou Water Cave.

However, the water pheasants were on another side road, and Li Changsheng was too lazy to cause any more trouble, so he just kept drifting along the main waterway.

really!

Unlike Hu Bayi and his companions in the original story, the two did not take the wrong path and exited the water cave smoothly.

Upon arriving at the stream outside the water cave, Wu Xie was immediately stunned by the scenery before him!

Before me stood a towering, majestic mountain peak that seemed to pierce the clouds.

In the open fields below the mountain, countless colorful butterflies were fluttering about.

The lush flowers and plants, like ocean waves, swayed up and down with the gentle breeze.

Wu Xie was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but sigh.

"It's so beautiful!"

Li Changsheng laughed and said, "There's something even more amazing coming up."

The two walked into the mountains, across open fields and valleys where butterflies fluttered, and finally stopped at the foot of the mountain.

There is a clear dividing line at the foot of the mountain!

The place where the two were was a world of lush foliage, clusters of flowers, and fluttering butterflies.

On the other side of the dividing line, however, lies a forbidden zone with jagged rocks and no vegetation.

This scene made Wu Xie frown.

He crouched down, rubbed the soil along the dividing line, and exclaimed in surprise, "This looks like... refined soil?"

In ancient times, there was a distinction between raw soil and cooked soil.

The most famous Qin Straight Road, even after two thousand years, remains barren.

This is because the Qin Dynasty had extremely high standards for road construction.

The soil from the road needs to be dug out first, then cooked in a pot over a wood fire, and then lime is added.

Soil prepared in this way will not grow plants for hundreds or even thousands of years.

If someone frequently goes hiking and visits scenic spots like imperial tombs, they will find that there are always some areas on these imperial tombs where no plants grow at all.

These places are where mounds of earth were built, and ancient mounds were also made by roasting the soil in this way.

If you find such a place in the mountains and forests, and you see obvious changes in the color of the soil, then congratulations, you have discovered a large tomb of considerable size!

Wu Xie was slightly surprised and was about to speak.

But Li Changsheng grabbed him and pulled him back seven or eight steps.

Wu Xie was stunned on the spot, and was about to ask a question.

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw a cloud of red mist drifting over from the foot of the mountain behind the dividing line!

These red mists seemed to have a life of their own, merely brushing past the boundary line.

Even more terrifying, some butterflies that accidentally crossed the boundary line fell to the ground instantly after being enveloped in the red mist, and died instantly!

This scene immediately terrified Wu Xie, leaving him feeling extremely frightened.

If Li Changsheng hadn't pulled him up just now, he would probably be like a dead butterfly by now.
