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

Upon hearing this, Wu Xie was completely stunned.

However, when he turned his head and saw Li Changsheng's calm expression, he immediately realized what was going on.

"No, what's there to be afraid of with my older brother here!"

Thinking of this, Wu Xie immediately felt more confident.

He chatted casually with Fatty Wang on the phone for a few minutes, then hung up.

"Big brother, you scared me to death! Luckily I reacted in time. With your skills, dealing with ghosts crying and laughing is a piece of cake..."

Wu Xie smiled broadly and offered a polite but not overly flattering compliment.

Upon hearing this, Li Changsheng laughed and said, "I like to hear that, but it's not always true. If we really run into something powerful, even your older brother will have to run away."

Li Changsheng estimated that with his current strength, dealing with things like Corpse Kings, Thousand-Year-Old Zombies, and Blood Corpses would be a piece of cake.

But if he were to encounter an ancient god of the serpent god level who could traverse space and possess imaginary space, he would have no choice but to run away!

After all, time reigns supreme, space is king, destiny is undeniable, and cause and effect are supreme!

Anything involving time and space involves absolute big shots, something a mere mortal like him can't possibly mess with.

Unfortunately, there really are a few ancient gods hidden deep within the world of tomb raiding, who are involved in space and time.

For example, the ancient god Gui Fang could reverse time. He reversed time several times, severing human civilization.

There is also an ancient god that looks like a beetle and can devour space. During the Tang Dynasty, it devoured three prefectures and one county!

Then there's the snake god inside the bottomless ghost cave, who possesses his own alternate dimension and whose strength is unfathomable.

Li Changsheng stopped smiling and turned to Wu Xie, saying, "Alright, don't worry about me!"

After saying that, he took the lead and walked towards the depths of the rear hall.

Seeing this, Wu Xie and the others quickly gave chase.

Actually, they didn't want to go either; they hoped to leave this awful place as soon as possible.

But compared to acting alone, it's clear that staying by Li Changsheng's side makes me feel safer.

After walking a dozen or so steps, the group arrived at the end of the rear hall.

Lingyun Immortal Palace is actually not very big. It only has one front hall, Huixian Hall, and one rear hall, Shangzhen Hall!

But when they reached the end, they didn't see any ghosts or monsters.

Although there were some rubble piled up inside the hall, the place was not large. You could see everything at a glance when you shone a flashlight on it. There were no hidden compartments or secret rooms at all!

"That's strange, why is it so quiet?"

Wu Xie whispered something, and just as he was about to look up, he suddenly felt something rushing towards him from above.

Before he could react, he saw Li Changsheng turn around, his palm radiating dazzling golden light.

After the golden light appeared, the object that jumped down from the main hall beam was quickly melted away.

At this moment, Wu Xie, still in shock, finally realized that the one rushing towards him was none other than the Gu people from inside the Calabash Cave!

There are hundreds or even thousands of Gu people inside the Calabash Cave. Although Li Changsheng carefully cleaned it up, he couldn't guarantee that no one had escaped.

Clearly, this one was a survivor who had slipped through the net and had somehow sneaked into the back hall, hiding on the crossbeam of the main hall to prepare for a sneak attack.

A sense of relief washed over Wu Xie, and he quickly thanked Li Changsheng.

If Li Changsheng hadn't intervened, the Gu people's claws would have already crushed his head.

On the other side, Ma Liang saw that there were still people with venomous insects, so he quickly picked up the Chicago typewriter and shone a flashlight around.

He only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that there was only this one fish that had escaped the net.

"Hey, so that's what was laughing! It almost scared me to death!"

Ma Liang angrily stomped on the bone powder of the gu errant, cursing under his breath.

However, at this moment, Sun Xiaomei covered her mouth and looked at the top of Wu Xie's head with a look of horror.

Wu Xie realized what was happening and subconsciously looked up.

He had barely glanced at it when he felt his heart nearly leap out of his chest.

On the beam where the Gu people had pounced, hung the corpse of a woman in a bright red robe.

The woman's clothes were hanging loosely below the waist, but her hair, head, and shoulders were still intact above.

Just as Wu Xie's gaze passed over, the female corpse, which originally only had the back of her head, suddenly turned her head 180 degrees.

The female corpse had heavy makeup on her face, a pale face, dark eyes, and bright red lips. She even turned her head and grinned.

When Wu Xie and she locked eyes, he felt his heart beating the fastest it had ever been.

Apart from Wu Xie, the others weren't much better off.

Ma Liang's hand, gripping the Chicago typewriter tightly, trembled. Sun Xiaomei was speechless, too frightened to utter a single word.

At this moment, only Li Changsheng and Professor Sun remained calm in the back hall.

Of course, Professor Sun was blind.

Wu Xie froze on the spot, unsure whether to move or not.

Fortunately, Li Changsheng's voice rang out at that moment.

"Don't be afraid, it's just a human skin!"

As he spoke, Li Changsheng pointed the flashlight at the woman's neck.

Wu Xie then realized that the female corpse's body was shriveled and obviously abnormal. Only upon closer inspection could he see that it was not a corpse, but a skin.

Even the facial features on the head were drawn on.

The so-called turning of the head was just the airflow generated by the Gu person's large movements, which caused the human skin to flutter.

Wu Xie breathed a sigh of relief and quickly said, "Judging from the style of these clothes, they don't look like clothes from the Han Dynasty in the Central Plains."

Sun Xiaomei looked visibly shaken, but she still managed to explain.

"These are the clothes worn by the mountain witches and sorceresses during the ancient Dian Kingdom period."

Ancient people were ignorant and foolish, and the further away they were from the Central Plains, the more primitive their rituals and beliefs became.

There are countless witches and sorceresses like this.

Upon hearing this, Wu Xie pondered for a moment before saying, "This witch is from the mountain people's side. Does that mean King Xian conquered the mountain people and used them all as slaves to build his tomb? And the mountain people's witches were also subjected to the cruel torture of skinning them alive?"

Sun Xiaomei thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Very likely!"

The ancient Dian Kingdom also had its own Great Shaman, the Great Shaman Zongzi inside Li Changsheng's black coffin.

However, the high shaman and the witch in front of them were not dressed exactly the same, clearly indicating that they belonged to two different factions.

Thinking of this, Wu Xie couldn't help but sigh, "Poor witch, not only were her relatives and friends enslaved by the King of Xian, but she herself was also skinned alive."

Skinning is a cruel form of torture that has been used repeatedly throughout history.

Such as human skin lanterns, human skin scrolls, and the like.

King Xian skinned the mountain witch and hung her on the beam of the Shangzhen Temple, clearly intending to condemn her to eternal damnation.

"She is indeed pitiful, so go up and untie her."

Li Changsheng nodded and said casually.

Wu Xie, who had initially felt some pity, felt a chill run down his spine upon hearing these words.

"I?!"

"That's right, it's you. Go now!"

Li Changsheng suppressed a laugh, but his main purpose was not to tease Wu Xie, but to see if the little red hand that opened the coffin could bring him another surprise.
