In Panjiayuan, the first thing they did was trick Lao Hu into going tomb raiding.

Then another figure appeared behind the group.

The person was wrapped up very tightly; it was the other "Zhang Qiling" from before.

The mute Zhang Youyou said slowly, "I am the real Zhang Qiling!"

Old Hu, Zhang Yingchuan sensed something and looked back.

The other Zhang Qiling remained silent and soon disappeared as well.

"..."

Old Hu frowned.

The group passed through the first gate smoothly and then arrived at the second gate.

This door also has reliefs on it, and now we're just waiting for the password to be sent from Mount Siguniang.

.........

Su Mo and his two companions, who were resting on the rock face, were also waiting for news from Banna.

They had just sent the password for the second door, but received the photo of the first door a step too late.

Wu Xie looked at the photo and discovered that Xiao Ge's clothes were gone.

"What happened? I just went in the door, how come all my clothes are gone?"

Xiao Hua, who was playing games on her old-fashioned mobile phone, chuckled a few times. "Look at the back of the photo."

"There's a sentence on the back of the photo; I guess the fat guy made them write it!"

"The Zhang family's mechanical design is specifically for them to show off, don't be surprised!"

"..."

"whispering sound!"

Wu Xie chuckled, a look of exasperation on his face. He then said, "Master Su, look, it seems they haven't entered the second gate yet. We'll have to wait a little longer..."

Su Mo nodded, "No rush, we have to wait for their action. Let's get some rest first..."

As he spoke, Su Mo glanced at the photo and noticed a shadowy figure.

Almost negligible, undetectable shadow, just behind a group of people, peeked out with its head and neck.

Su Mo raised an eyebrow. If he remembered correctly, this dark figure was "Zhang Tata" from the original novel.

His strength and skills are no less than Zhang Qiling's; he's a formidable character.

However, Su Mo wasn't surprised. Old Hu, Zhang Yingchuan, and Chaos were all there; dealing with Zhang Tata shouldn't be a big problem.

.........

After passing through the first gate and walking for another half hour, Wang Yueban and his group finally received the second password.

After opening the second door, everyone went inside and felt a chill enter their bodies.

It was very cold in this space, and it got colder the further you went in.

They have now entered a mountain space that is neither too big nor too small.

The chill made them instinctively wrap their clothes tighter around themselves.

Wang Yue asked, "What's going on? Why is it so cold here?"

As they were talking, several people in the group started sneezing.

"Squeak!"

The door behind them slowly closed.

Old Hu, Wang Kaixuan, Zhang Yingchuan and the others felt uneasy. He remembered what Su Mo had told him before he left, saying that if Xiao Ge encountered danger, they must do everything they could to protect him.

Protecting Zhang Qiling is equivalent to protecting yourself.

They hadn't felt this deeply before, but for some reason, as soon as they entered this space, the three of them remembered Su Mo's words.

So, Lao Hu and the other two stood next to Zhang Qiling, becoming increasingly vigilant.

Zhang Qiling walked towards the middle and immediately discovered an ice bed there, which was still emitting white cold air.

Old Hu said, "The temperature here is too low, it seems to be caused by this ice bed!"

Old Hu raised his eyebrows and quickly discovered another stone door behind the ice bed.

Old Hu guessed that this should be the last door that Old Mrs. Huo mentioned.

However, what puzzled everyone was that the stone gate no longer had the Hou relief carving; it was completely empty.

Lao Hu, Zhang Yingchuan, and Wang Kaixuan exchanged glances, their ominous premonition growing stronger.

"That's really strange. Why doesn't this door have any relief carvings?"

Wang Yueban stepped forward and touched the flat stone door, carefully searching every detail with his flashlight, but couldn't find anything special. He rubbed his arms together, his teeth chattering from the cold. "This is too cold, like being in a giant freezer."

At this moment, Zhang Qiling was squatting in front of the large ice bed, reaching out to trace patterns on it. The chill traveled through his fingers to his body, but he did not react at all.

Everyone else was shivering from the cold. "Hey buddy, what did you figure out?"

Zhang Qiling's expression suddenly turned strange, and he said, "Cold Jade!"

"What cold jade?"

"This is a cold jade ice bed that can slow down the decay."

Upon hearing this, everyone shuddered even more, and goosebumps rose all over their bodies.

What needs to be slowed down to prevent corruption?

Isn't that a corpse?

Everyone looked at the ice bed, their hearts filled with dread.

Wang Yueban: "Could this be a morgue?"

"..."

Everyone was speechless.

Wang Yueban added, "Don't just stand there, all of you. Quickly look around and see if there are any other exits or mechanisms. This is fucking terrifying."

Upon hearing what the fat man said, everyone looked around but found no exit.

Moreover, they dared not touch anything carelessly, fearing that if they touched something, they would be doomed.

At this moment, everyone placed their hopes on Zhang Qiling, and like his little follower, they would never leave his side.

On the ice bed, there are some very fine lines, which, upon closer inspection, form an image of a Qilin (a mythical creature).

Silent Zhang said softly, "I need red cinnabar!"

The Huo family members immediately took out the contents of the bag and handed the cinnabar to Zhang Qiling.

Zhang Qiling sprinkled the red cinnabar onto the patterns.

As soon as the entire image appeared, Wang Yunban recognized its significance and exclaimed in surprise, "Isn't this a Qilin stepping on a ghost?"

Chapter 461: Life and Death in an Instant

The Huo family members immediately took out the contents of the bag and handed the cinnabar to Zhang Qiling.

Zhang Qiling sprinkled the red cinnabar onto the patterns.

As soon as the entire image appeared, Wang Yunban recognized its significance and exclaimed in surprise, "Isn't this a Qilin stepping on a ghost... the Ghost Seal, this is the pattern on the Ghost Seal!"

This Qilin is different from the Qilin tattoo on Zhang Qiling's body; it is relatively more complex.

Zhang Qiling turned to look at Wang Yueban, his face showing some confusion, as if asking, "How do you know all this?"

Wang Yunban immediately explained, "Wu Xie and I studied that Ghost Seal before. This should be a plan of the Ghost Seal. The part that is often held is missing three little ghost heads. You can see it very clearly here..."

"Master Su told me before that the position of these two eyeballs is to jam the finger of the person taking the ring!"

Relying on his memory, Wang Yueban described the characteristics of the Ghost Seal: "The Ghost Seal was missing three little ghost heads, but this picture is complete. Could it be that it's a replacement for the missing ones on the Ghost Seal?"

Zhang Qiling silently put down his backpack, took out the emerald green Ghost Seal, and placed it on the ice coffin for a simple comparison.

"it is as expected!"

Wang Yueban's guess was correct: "As long as we find the locations of these three ghost heads, the mechanism might just be there!"

"..."

Zhang Qiling nodded, agreeing with Wang Yueban's guess.

"All done!"

Wang Yueban, in high spirits, immediately said, "Everyone, find the location of these three ghost heads!"

With everyone working together, they soon found three spots each.

"This is where the index finger is located."

"This is the middle finger."

"The thumb is here..."

All three locations were found; each was a small hole, barely big enough to fit a finger. Before anyone could react, his two long fingers were already inside the two eyeballs, and then he hooked them in forcefully.

With a creak, the sound of a mechanism being activated came from the wall.

Everyone instinctively looked in the direction of the sound.

Suddenly, a crack appeared in the wall.

Zhang Qiling then activated the mechanism from another location. With another creak, a platform rose from the gap.

The platform was neither too big nor too small; it seemed just big enough for one person to lie down.

As he activated the third mechanism, the rock platform descended.

When Zhang Qiling reopened the other mechanisms, the platform rose up again from the gaps in the other walls.

This looks a bit like... a food serving station.

"Wow, this is incredible!"
