Tomb raiding: Carrying a coffin during a funeral procession, rewarded with the Dragon Elephant Prajn
Chapter 2 Corpse-filled Water Cave
the other side.
Inside the Guazi Temple.
Li Changsheng waited until the sun set, its afterglow turning the mountains crimson, before standing up and hoisting the enormous black coffin onto his back.
He himself was not afraid of the scorching sun.
But the Corpse King couldn't withstand it!
They could only travel at night and hide during the day, trying to travel after sunset.
A black coffin, over two meters tall, was carried on Li Changsheng's back, completely obscuring him.
From a distance, all that could be seen was a black coffin moving among the mountains.
Despite carrying such a large coffin on his back, Li Changsheng moved at a remarkable speed, almost as fast as lightning.
The journey of more than ten kilometers took only half an hour.
He stopped in front of a lake nestled in a mountain gorge, gazing at the mountains beyond the lake.
"The Corpse Cave isn't far ahead; the two female puppets and the crystal coffin are also inside."
Li Changsheng's spirits lifted. He went to great lengths to first retrieve the Corpse King from Ping Mountain and seal it inside the black coffin.
Now we can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel.
"I wonder what the reward is!"
"I even got Maoshan Taoist magic from the newbie gift pack, so the reward for the first quest can't be too bad!"
Thinking of this, Li Changsheng couldn't wait to take the black coffin off his back and then throw it into the lake.
Immediately afterwards, he leaped lightly onto the black coffin floating on the water.
"Hey, it's your turn to get to work!"
Li Changsheng sat cross-legged on the black coffin and gently patted the coffin lid.
The next second, the black coffin indeed started to move, swaying and wobbling as it moved towards the cave of corpses.
After traveling about a mile, the lake narrowed in front of them, revealing a water cave that runs into the mountains.
The black coffin carried Li Changsheng into the water cave, and the only light disappeared as well.
However, Li Changsheng didn't care. In addition to Maoshan Taoist techniques, he also got the innate supernatural ability Night Eye from his newbie gift pack.
It can see clearly at night, as brightly as in daylight.
The black coffin moved along the crooked cave and soon reached an area with a rapid current.
After navigating several bends, Li Changsheng heard a rustling crawling sound.
He turned his head and saw a recessed area on the right side of the cave, where a middle-aged man who looked like a zombie was lying.
The man was in bad shape; his body was crawling with corpse beetles, and most of his lower body had been eaten away, with his large and small intestines spilling out.
But he wasn't completely dead yet; he was making hoarse noises and struggling to reach out, seemingly wanting Li Changsheng to save him.
Li Changsheng watched all this with cold eyes, showing no intention of making a move.
This man and the old guide specifically lured tourists into the water cave, where they murdered and robbed them.
This retribution is a testament to the clear justice of Heaven.
The black coffin continued forward, and soon Li Changsheng heard gunshots.
After turning two more bends, the light of a flashlight appeared ahead.
Wu Xie and his group were standing on the bamboo raft.
Countless carrion beetles were surging in the water both in front and behind.
Wu Xie was nervously watching the water around him when he suddenly looked up and saw Li Changsheng, and his face immediately filled with surprise.
"Big brother, what brings you here?"
Wu Xie instinctively shouted, then realized what he was doing and yelled, "Don't come any closer! There are deadly corpse beetles underwater!"
Li Changsheng didn't care, he just sat cross-legged on the black coffin and continued to drift forward.
Wu Xie's shouts startled Wu Sansheng and the others, who turned to look at Li Changsheng with a hint of wariness in their eyes.
Moreover, Wu Xie's voice also alerted the corpse beetles underwater!
In an instant, the carrion beetles around the bamboo raft seemed to go berserk and began to boil.
They could even faintly hear the screeching sound of the corpse beetles gnawing on the bamboo raft.
"Third Uncle, what should we do?"
This was the first time Wu Xie had experienced something like this, so he was inevitably a little flustered.
Just as Wu Sansheng was about to speak to comfort him, he heard his assistant Da Kui shout in surprise, pointing at Li Changsheng who was floating over from not far away.
"Look at him!"
Hearing the sound, everyone hurriedly looked over, only to find Li Changsheng sitting cross-legged on the black coffin, leisurely and seemingly not worried at all about the corpse beetles underwater.
What shocked Wu Xie and the others even more was that the underwater corpse beetles seemed to have encountered a natural enemy and actually made way for the black coffin.
Upon seeing this, Wu Sansheng's eyes flickered, and he quickly shouted at Pan Zi, who was in charge of steering the ship.
"Quick, quick, follow them!"
Upon hearing this, Pan Zi quickly used his strength to prop up the bamboo pole and chased after the black coffin with all his might.
really!
The bamboo raft followed behind the black coffin, and the corpse beetles retreated, no longer giving chase.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief!
Wu Xie quickly shouted to Li Changsheng in front of him, "Big brother, thank you!"
But Li Changsheng, sitting on the black coffin, didn't even turn his head.
The black coffin maintained a steady pace, drifting slowly into the depths of the water cave.
There is no sun or moon in the cave!
After an unknown amount of time, Wu Xie noticed that the water cave was gradually becoming more spacious.
Shallows have also appeared on both sides of the waterway!
But upon closer inspection, he discovered countless pieces of flesh and corpses piled up on the shallows.
These corpses included both human and animal remains.
Large and small chunks of meat and bones were piled together, emitting a nauseating stench.
What's even more chilling is that you can see palm-sized corpse beetles crawling and moving around in the gaps between the piles of corpses.
However, wherever Li Changsheng's black coffin passed, both large and small corpse beetles retreated and disappeared without a trace.
Seeing this, Wu Xie couldn't help but exclaim, "Third Uncle, you were right, this really is a pile of corpses!"
"Hey, learn from him. When has Uncle San ever said anything wrong!"
"Pah, you said you were almost there this morning, but it's already dark and you still haven't arrived."
At this point, Wu Xie turned to Zhang Qiling and teased, "Brother, look at that black coffin. It seems more effective than your blood."
Zhang Qiling remained silent, simply looking at Wu Xie without saying a word.
Wu Xie himself couldn't hold on any longer and could only say with an embarrassed expression.
"Well, I'm just trying to lighten the mood."
Pan Zi shook his head and whispered, trying to keep his voice low, "Young Master, it's best to be careful. This person's background is unknown; he's too eerie."
Wu Xie thought for a moment and replied, "Maybe we really are in the same industry!"
"Whether we're traveling together or have ulterior motives, we should try to stay out of the way once we're out of the water cave."
Wu Sansheng had seen many strange things in his life, but this white-haired youth in front of him was simply bizarre.
A black coffin, the contents of which were unknown, was even more effective than the Zhang family's Qilin blood!
Thinking of this, Wu Sansheng remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he was filled with worry.
On the one hand, they were worried that Li Changsheng was a member of the Wang family, and on the other hand, they were worried that the scheme they had set up for Wu Xie would be ruined.
Wu Sansheng was skilled at planning, but even he couldn't withstand encountering an exceptionally ruthless person.
He was truly at his wit's end!
