Chapter 178 It’s Not Easy to Be a Ghost Messenger in the Underworld
Shan Yuzheng walked in front, and Meng Nianchan followed closely.
Lingyu was behind, looking reluctant.
Several people came to the middle cave and listened to the sounds from deep inside the cave, and they couldn't help feeling a little panicked.
When you first enter the cave, it becomes quiet instantly. Water droplets can be seen on the cliffs, falling down from time to time.
"Ah, it's... blood!" A cry of surprise was heard, and several people stopped.
Meng Nianchan walked up to Xiaoyou and asked helplessly, "What's wrong?"
The girl stretched out her hand tremblingly, only to find blood on her palm.
"My neck was hurting just now. When I touched it, there was blood." The girl looked pitiful and the others showed concern for her.
Meng Nianchan looked at the girl being taken care of, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly.
This girl is also a ruthless character, hurting herself...
"Teacher Shan, I don't want to walk behind, I'm scared. Can I... follow you?" The girl asked softly, endearingly.
Shan Yuzheng subconsciously wanted to refuse, but Meng Nianchan agreed first.
"Sure, you follow him." Meng Nianchan said with a light smile, looking understanding.
After the little incident, the group continued to move forward.
In the dim light, Xiaoyou's lips slightly raised, and there seemed to be a gleam in her eyes.
"Hiss!" Li Lei felt a pain on the back of his neck, and he reached out and grabbed a living creature.
I saw a hard black crustacean in my hand, which kept drilling into my flesh.
"Throw it away quickly, everyone run forward!" Meng Nianchan slapped the strange object out of the man's hand and became alert instantly.
The next moment, the sound behind him became louder and louder. Shan Yuzheng looked back and saw a large number of black insects swarming towards him. They were very fast and had strong attack power.
Several people were running forward. Shan Yuzheng was about to go back when she was stopped by a girl: "Professor Shan, you can't go. Go forward. The door in front is the main tomb chamber. Let's go open it!"
After thinking about it, it made sense. If the door in front wasn't opened, everyone would be dead.
The two of them quickly walked to the door and tried every means to open it. Meng Nianchan walked at the back, protecting the people in front.
If the situation wasn't special, she would have wanted to get a few beetles to play with, but she didn't expect that the poisonous insects from that period were preserved here.
This insect is not scary if it is just one, but a group of it.
During the fight, Meng Nianchan threw a handful of fire, and the Hu insect was temporarily trapped and dared not move forward.
At this time, the door of the main tomb chamber was opened, and Shan Yuzheng's eyes lit up: "Qingqing, come quickly, the door over here is open!"
Finally, the few people were temporarily safe and entered the main tomb chamber.
After a big fight, several people were out of breath and sat on the ground to relax, not paying attention to the scene in front of them.
Little did she know that Meng Nianchan's eyes suddenly turned red as she looked at everything in front of her.
This is...their tomb.
It was exactly the same, as if the scene was reappearing, and as if further ahead... was the place where they embraced.
“Huh, Qingqing, you didn’t…” The man’s caring words suddenly paused when he saw what was in front of him.
"Is this... a tomb where slaves were buried alive?" Li Lei pushed his glasses, his face full of disbelief.
In front of them, there were piles of mummies. After all these years, they were still well preserved. Some had fear on their faces, some looked aggrieved and in pain. But they had one thing in common: they seemed to be... running for their lives.
Shan Yuzheng regained her composure, her eyes lit up, and she spoke calmly: "This is the tomb of a princess from the slave period. The coffin in front... should be the princess."
Men are always terrifyingly rational and calm when it comes to archaeology.
Meng Nianchan calmed down, but was still a little dazed.
"Teacher Li, you take Xiaoyou and the others to the side tomb chamber over there. Meng Qing and I will go check the princess's tomb." The man's voice was cold and unyielding.
As soon as a few people dispersed, the place became quiet instantly.
Water dripped down from the tomb chamber, and once it hit the ground, it melted a small hole, which was extremely corrosive.
"Qingqing, why were you crying just now?" Shan Yuzheng said, picking up the archaeological brush and sweeping the dust on the tomb.
"It's okay, I just... saw an old friend." The woman's voice was light, yet mixed with affection and very gentle.
"The princess is not inside, she is in front. Besides... this is not the princess's tomb." Meng Nianchan said.
It's just a cover for murder.
"Why do you say that? Those in front are slaves who were buried alive." Shan Yuzheng asked puzzledly.
Meng Nianchan did not answer the man's question, but asked: "Shan Yuzheng, when you see these burial scenes, do you have no feelings?"
"No, I'm used to it. It's fate. There's nothing much to say. But you said... this is not the princess's tomb. I don't understand."
I don't have any feelings, but since a while ago... it feels like something in my mind is out of control, as if something in my body is about to burst out.
Shan Yuzheng stood up and looked at the two mummies hugging each other not far away, feeling a little surprised.
“Among so many people, there are only these two together. Only these two people… their expressions are very happy. It’s really strange. They are all going to die, but they don’t run for their lives?” The man was puzzled, but his body was shaking uncontrollably.
Meng Nianchan followed the man's gaze and her whole body froze.
The next second, Wan Ran said, "Shan Yuzheng, love at that time... was divided into different levels. She just... wanted to be with him for one more second."
The man paused and asked with concern, "Qingqing, what's wrong with you? From just now... you have been answering irrelevant questions."
Before the man finished speaking, there was a loud noise from the front, and a pair of hands suddenly grabbed Shan Yu Zheng and ran forward desperately.
"Huh, Professor Shan, are you okay? You accidentally touched the mechanism just now, and now the tomb is going to collapse!" Xiaoyou said breathlessly, looking at the closed tomb door with a slight smile on his face.
"Xiaoyou, where is Meng Qing? Didn't you say you would take her with you?" Li Lei looked around and frowned when he saw that someone was obviously missing.
The girl was slightly stunned and said fearfully: "Sorry, I forgot when I was so nervous. What should I do? I'm sorry! Shall I go back to find Sister Meng?"
"Enough!" The man's eyes were red and there was a dark and vicious look in his eyes.
"Uh... cough cough, Professor Dan... Professor Dan... let go, let go!" Xiaoyou struggled hard as her neck was suddenly strangled.
From just now on, the man in front of him seemed to have become a different person, cold and vicious, with a terrifying aura.
The next second, the girl was thrown aside and screamed in pain.
"Danger, Shan Yuzheng! You can't go in!"
She took great pains to trap Meng Qing there, but once he went in... everything was ruined!
"Hey, your thoughts are too obvious. If anything happens to Nianchan, you... will all be buried with her." The man's voice was like Satan, eerie and strange.
The next moment, the man passed through the wall and disappeared without a trace.
Xiaoyou was so scared that she couldn't speak. Li Lei pushed his glasses and said worriedly, "He's not Shan Yuzheng. I hope he's okay."
Outside the door, it was quiet, but inside the door, there was a rumbling sound and it was about to collapse.
The corners of Meng Nianchan's mouth twitched slightly, and she was speechless to Xiaoyou.
Looking at the fallen stone cave, the woman smiled lightly with light in her eyes, and walked towards the two mummies hugging each other.
The long, slender hands gently stroked the male mummy, with careful movements and gentle eyes.
"Shan Yu... I'm in danger. Although I can handle it myself, I still... miss you."
"Why haven't you changed at all? I'm here to find you. Please show up soon, okay? Chan is here to see you. This time... can I stay with you longer?"
The woman had a fascinated look in her eyes as she sat quietly beside the mummy, completely ignoring the falling rubble around her.
The scene changed, as if returning to that time.
At that time, the war between the demon world and the underworld came to a temporary end, and she wanted to relax, so she came to the human world.
But because of her fate, she was reincarnated directly.
Fortunately, Yan Luo was a friend of many years and arranged a good identity for her.
It was the slave era, and she was a tribal... pampered princess.
She was different from other children. Because she had memories, she was called a genius. She brought many new inventions to the tribe. Gradually, their tribe became the largest and most advanced tribe.
Everyone in the tribe doted on her and thought she was a genius of the tribe and a lucky star sent by God.
With this memory, she lived in the tribe for eighteen years.
It wasn't until her birthday that her father gave her a gift.
From that moment...her world changed.
"Jiaojiao, what are you thinking about? Today is your eighteenth birthday. Your father has prepared a gift for you. How about playing with Jiaojiao?" The man stroked his beard, looking very tough.
The girl has a pretty face, smart and calm, and she is indescribably charming and stunning.
"What is it? Can I play?" She didn't understand feelings to begin with. Moreover, she had been spoiled for more than ten years and had long forgotten etiquette. It was inevitable that she had a somewhat spoiled personality.
In a slave society, slaves...are just things to be played with, aren't they?
When she first saw the dirty and muddy boy in the cage, she was disgusted.
It's not the appearance, she hates... that pair of cold and stubborn eyes, which seem to be unyielding and contemptuous, making people... very uncomfortable.
"You are just a slave, how dare you glare at this princess!"
The consequences of the little princess's anger...are naturally terrible.
The young man was dragged out of the cage and whipped dozens of times, but he didn't utter a sound.
He is disobedient and doesn't know how to please others, so naturally he has a hard time.
"Shan Yu... go fetch water for this princess!"
"Shan Yu... go get some dates for this princess!"
"Shan Yu...My legs hurt!"
"Shan Yu... go and receive your punishment!"
"Dan... Um!" One day, the girl was about to order the boy around, but before she could finish her words, the boy suddenly fell to the ground with a muffled sound.
Meng Nianchan took a step back and said softly, "A Fei, why is he fainted? Did I punish him?"
hooligan:"……"
It's more than a punishment, working next to you... is simply torture!
"The princess is kind-hearted and beautiful, how could she punish anyone?" Ah Fei said without changing his expression.
The girl nodded and said in a good mood: "Well, this princess is in a good mood today, so I will take care of him reluctantly."
In fact, she didn't want to take care of him, she just wanted to torture him in some other way.
Do you want to know why you are targeting Shan Yu?
She doesn't know either.
Maybe... he is particularly stubborn and arrogant.
And she…desperately wanted him to submit.
