Tomb raiding: Carrying a coffin during a funeral procession, rewarded with the Dragon Elephant Prajn
Chapter 76 Dragons Entangling the Mountain
Mike and the others chose a relatively high open space above the valley, and quickly set up a temporary camp.
Inside the largest tent at the temporary camp, Aning gathered everyone to discuss the next route.
"According to the map Zhang Wei gave me, once we cross this valley and forest, we may be attacked by mysterious underground monsters. So tonight is the last night we can sleep peacefully. Starting tomorrow, we need to be on high alert. If anyone is attacked and there is no possibility of rescue, I will immediately order the rescue to be abandoned."
Ah Ning's words were extremely cold, but no one in the tent objected.
Not to mention the mercenaries under her command, they were all veterans of the battlefield who had experienced life and death.
Take Xiang, for example; he has faced several life-threatening crises.
He knew the dangers of the tomb and didn't expect anyone to save him if he encountered danger.
Seeing that no one objected, Aning paused and continued, "In addition, as you all know, there is a family burial site in the mountains further on. Based on the information I currently have, this family burial site should have been built on the site of the Wuyang Tomb."
Taoist Gou touched the bronze hexagonal bell in his sleeve, chuckled, and said, "Miss Aning, there's no need for further words. Pan Suo Company has paid us well, so we will naturally do our best. I, Gou, am not a big shot, but I still understand the principle of doing what one is paid for."
"very good."
Ah Ning's expression remained unchanged, revealing nothing of her thoughts.
She simply turned to look at Li Changsheng, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Boss Li, is there anything you'd like to add?"
"No, I'll do as you say."
Li Changsheng shrugged, completely agreeing with Gou Daoshi's opinion.
You take someone's money and do their bidding.
Anyway, he's just here to collect corpses and send off the dead. As long as the system can generate a mission, he won't let a single zombie go!
With Feng Shigu, an Earth Immortal, in the village, you can at least complete one or two quests, so it's not a wasted trip.
Ah Ning nodded, feeling quite elated. She felt that the mission had gone too smoothly. Not only had she helped her boss, Qiu Dekao, find the tomb of the Guanshan Taibao ancestor who was granted the title of King, but she had also captured the zombie ape. It was a very fruitful trip.
The only goal now is to enter the Earth Immortal Village and investigate Feng Shigu's Earth Immortal Secrets.
If we can bring Feng Shigu out, that would be ideal. If not, bringing out the secret manual will still be considered completing the mission.
To accomplish the mission, anyone in the team is willing to sacrifice themselves, including herself!
Thinking of this, Ah Ning looked around and nodded, saying, "Everyone, get some rest. We'll set off early tomorrow morning."
The crowd dispersed, but Li Changsheng didn't leave. He immediately took the black coffin off his back.
Aning was taken aback by his actions and frowned, saying, "Why don't you go back to your own tent?"
Li Changsheng pointed at the black coffin and retorted, "Don't we need a black coffin for beauty and skincare anymore?"
Hearing this, Aning felt a pang of frustration.
Although she earns a good salary, she has also saved some money over the years, in addition to sending money home!
However, no matter how much savings you have, you can't afford to squander them like that.
The cost of using the black coffin these past few days has already exceeded 200,000 yuan, which is really a bit too much for me to bear.
Thinking of this, Ah Ning's face instantly darkened.
"You've drained all my savings, where am I supposed to get any more money!"
"Alright, you're practically a big customer now, I'll waive the fee for you tonight..."
Before Li Changsheng could finish speaking, he saw A Ning's figure flash and leap onto the black coffin.
The speed was so fast that Li Changsheng was caught off guard.
Sitting on the black coffin, Ah Ning felt the bone-chilling coldness emanating from beneath her. Far from feeling any discomfort, she found it exceptionally pleasant.
"Your black coffin is so comfortable, I don't even need to buy an air conditioner in the summer."
Ah Ning thought to herself, "Free things are definitely the most enjoyable to use."
Li Changsheng: ...
Silent all night.
The next day, the group woke up early. Before six o'clock in the morning, the mountains were shrouded in mist, and everyone was already ready.
At Aning's command, the team headed towards the valley forest.
This forest is somewhat similar to a mangrove forest or a swamp.
You can feel the mud when you step on the ground.
Fortunately, the journey was uneventful, and we safely crossed the forest.
After leaving the woods, the group all became more vigilant.
Because this is within the attack range of the Nine Deaths Terrifying Armor!
According to Zhang Wei, the attacks of these underground monsters are completely unpredictable and they could emerge from underground at any time.
Li Changsheng knew that this was because the area was outside the Earth Immortal Village, which was why the Nine Deaths Shocking Mausoleum Armor's attack frequency was not high.
If you enter the core area of the Earth Immortal Village, the Nine Deaths Terrifying Armor will attack any living creature that enters it.
After leaving the woods, another mountain peak came into view.
The mountain peak pierces the clouds, and the rising sun shines upon it, casting a golden glow.
In addition, this mountain is even steeper than Coffin Gorge.
Narrower, steeper bird trails surround the mountain peaks.
These bird trails, like necklaces, wind around the mountain peaks in layers.
Moreover, each bird path leads to a cave or tunnel.
Seeing this, Aning subconsciously opened the map that Zhang Wei had given her.
Unfortunately, Zhang Wei's map only marked one-tenth of the bird trails.
They have tried countless times over the years, sacrificing many lives, to traverse only one-tenth of the bird trail.
If we try all nine-tenths of the remaining bird trails one by one, we might not find a way through the canyon even by next year.
However, if they don't take the tunnel and try to cross the mountain, they will constantly face attacks from underground monsters.
"There are probably hundreds of dangerous paths and hundreds of tunnels on this mountain. Which one should we take?"
Just as Aning was caught in a dilemma, Xiang, the foreman, suddenly spoke.
"These mountain peaks and winding paths resemble the 'dragons encircling the mountain' described by tomb raiders. Each layer of encirclement is a barrier, and if the gates are locked with a thousand locks, surely a king or noble resides here!"
"Judging from the terrain where these mountains are entwined like dragons, the Black Sheep King should be buried near these valley peaks. However, I'm not a member of the tomb raiding school, and even if I knew this was a mountain-entwined formation, I couldn't find the key to its feng shui!"
Hei Xiazi had been listening with great interest, but when he heard Xiang Batou's last sentence, he was speechless.
"What's the point of saying anything if you don't know?"
Xiang scratched his head, not angry at all, and said with a smile, "Two heads are better than one!"
Seeing that everyone was arguing endlessly about the hundreds of treacherous paths and didn't know which way to go, Li Changsheng had no choice but to step forward.
"Alright, stop arguing, just come with me."
After saying that, without caring whether the others followed or not, he carried the black coffin on his back and walked towards the dangerous path he had chosen.
The others exchanged glances and all turned their attention to Aning.
Ah Ning gritted her teeth, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Follow Consultant Li!"
