Peerless Xiaolong

Chapter 769 Dry Well

As the sound of footsteps got closer and closer, Chu Yuan immediately pulled Zhu Liuying and hid behind a stone pillar.

Because the space behind the stone pillar was very narrow, Zhu Liuying almost pressed against Chu Yuan's body.

The two of them were very close to each other, and they could feel the masculine aura emanating from Chu Yuan.

Zhu Liuying's pretty face turned red instantly.

She turned her head and didn't dare to look at Chu Yuan, but the space was really limited. The moment Zhu Liuying turned her head, her sexy red lips swept directly over Chu Yuan's lips.

Chu Yuan glanced at Zhu Liuying with a strange look on his face. The latter's face was so red that he could even drip water.

"I…"

Zhu Liuying was about to explain, but Chu Yuan covered his mouth.

suddenly.

Footsteps came again.

A mysterious man in black appeared in front of Chu and Yuan.

Because the flashlight was turned off and there was no light in the ancient tomb, Chu Yuan could only vaguely make out the outline of a man.

As for the other party's appearance, Chu Yuan couldn't see clearly at all.

At this moment, Chu Yuan and Zhu Liuying held their breath and did not make any movement in order not to alarm the snake.

The man in black looked around, and after finding nothing unusual, he walked toward the other side of the stone wall.

Feeling the sound of the man in black's footsteps fading away, Zhu Liuying patted Chu Yuan, pointed to the distance, and then pointed to himself.

Zhu Liuying's meaning was obvious, and he asked Chu Yuan if he wanted to follow the other party.

Chu Yuan lowered his voice and said, "Wait a little longer."

It wasn't until the footsteps of the man in black completely disappeared that Chu Yuan turned on the flashlight again.

Zhu Liuying took a deep breath: "Who could that person be? Cao Bao and the others are all dead. No one should know about this ancient tomb."

The appearance of the man in black made both Chu Yuan and Zhu Liuying realize that something was wrong.

Logically speaking, after Cao Bao and others died, no one should enter the ancient tomb again. It would be difficult for ordinary people to find the entrance to the ancient tomb.

But the man in black is very familiar with the inside of the ancient tomb.

In an instant, Chu Yuan suddenly thought of something and narrowed his eyes slightly: "No, besides Cao Bao and the others, there are people who know the secret of the ancient tomb!"

"Go, follow!"

A figure appeared in Chu Yuan's mind.

In order to verify whether his guess was true, Chu Yuan decided to follow the man in black.

Soon, following the footprints left by the man in black, Chu and Yuan came to an open place.

There is a strong smell of dampness in the air.

The footprints of the man in black also disappeared here.

Zhu Liuying looked around with his flashlight and found that there was no exit at all.

This also made Chu Yuan feel that something was wrong more and more, and said: "There is obviously no exit, but the footprints of the man in black disappeared here."

The next second, Chu Yuan's eyes were fixed on a boulder.

The stone was covered with moss, which looked to be hundreds of years old at least.

"Is there anything different about this stone?" Zhu Liuying came to Chu Yuan and found that the latter was staring at the huge stone motionless.

Chu Yuan observed the boulder carefully. When he saw the bottom of the boulder, his pupils suddenly shrank.

"Liuying, come and see."

Chu Yuan pointed to the bottom of the boulder. There were obvious signs of friction under the boulder.

Zhu Liuying also squatted down and frowned: "It's strange. This stone weighs hundreds of kilograms at least. Why are there signs of friction on the bottom?"

Chu Yuan looked at Zhu Liuying and suddenly said: "Can you find a way to remove this stone?"

Hearing this, a flash of astonishment flashed in Zhu Liuying's beautiful eyes.

"you…"

Chu Yuan nodded slightly: "The man in black disappeared here. I suspect there is a secret passage below."

Chu Yuan didn't believe that the man in black could disappear out of thin air.

The other party must have entered some secret passage that they didn't know about.

"Let's not talk about whether your guess is true. Even if it is true, this boulder weighing hundreds of kilograms cannot be moved by ordinary people." Zhu Liuying analyzed.

Chu Yuan smiled mysteriously: "What if the other party is not an ordinary person?"

Zhu Liuying frowned slightly and said, "What do you mean?"

Chu Yuan shrugged and said, "If you think about it carefully, those corpses we encountered, as well as Cao Gong and others, they all have a common identity."

"That's the cultivators. From a certain perspective, they are no longer ordinary people."

"We know very little about cultivators, but one thing we can be sure of is that through cultivation, one's physique can become different from that of ordinary people."

Zhu Liuying also understood what Chu Yuan meant and said, "You mean that the man in black just now is a cultivator like Cao Gong."

In the past, Zhu Liuying did not believe that there were any cultivators in this world.

But after she met Cao Gong and gained her natural supernatural power, Zhu Liuying realized that there were things in this world that science could not explain.

"I understand."

Zhu Liuying placed her palms on the boulder and continued to exert force with her hands.

Rumble!

The boulder weighing hundreds of kilograms was pushed aside by Zhu Liuying.

The moment the boulder was removed, a dry well suddenly appeared in front of Chu and Yuan.

"This…"

Seeing the dry well in front of him, Zhu Liuying glanced at Chu Yuan meaningfully.

Unexpectedly, Chu Yuan's guess turned out to be true. There was indeed a secret passage under the boulder.

When Chu Yuan came to the dry well, a strong ancient aura of vicissitudes of life hit his face.

The flashlight shone down into the dry well, which was bottomless.

An inexplicable chill surged into Chu Yuan's heart, and a strong intuition told him that the dry well was very dangerous!

This feeling has never happened even when facing Cao Gong.

This also forced Chu Yuan to pay attention.

"Do you want to go down?" Zhu Liuying asked.

Chu Yuan frowned slightly and stood by the dry well to observe carefully.

Although he did discover the secret passage, Chu Yuan was still hesitant whether to go down or not.

If we go on, everything will be unknown!

Chu Yuan did not have the ability to predict the unknown, nor did he know where the dry well led.

Moreover, there is an unknown mysterious person in the dry well. If the opponent is stronger than Cao Gong, then it may be difficult for him and Zhu Liuying to defeat him alone.

But if he didn't go down, he wouldn't be able to fully know the secret of the ancient tomb. Maybe there might be a volume of the Six Paths of Medicine hidden underneath.

Finally, Chu Yuan took a deep breath and said, "I'll go down, you stay here."

"No."

"I can't let you go down alone. Either you go together or I go." Zhu Liuying refused.

Hearing this, Chu Yuan glanced at Zhu Liuying with a strange expression. This scene gave him a feeling of déjà vu.

Zhu Liuying seemed to have said the same thing when he and Zhu Liuying entered the secret space.

Then something happened to them inside that shouldn't have happened.

Sensing Chu Yuan's strange gaze, Zhu Liuying naturally knew what Chu Yuan was thinking, and her pretty face suddenly turned red with embarrassment.

"Can we get in or not?" Zhu Liuying asked angrily in embarrassment.

Chu Yuan smiled: "Let's go together then."

Chu Yuan opened his arms. The opening of the dry well was very small. If two people wanted to enter together, they could only enter by holding each other.

Zhu Liuying glared at Chu Yuan angrily, then stepped forward and entered Chu Yuan's arms.

Immediately, Chu Yuan carried Zhu Liuying into the dry well.

The moment he entered the dry well, Zhu Liuying couldn't help but put his hand into his pocket...
