Tomb robber: I am the tenth of the nine gates

These days are not festival celebrations, so what are the people from Heiqiao Village doing here?

What's more, it happened to coincide with the funeral procession of the prince. We have to be on guard!

The killers and guards around the chieftain were also thinking about the matter of Heiqiao Village. If Heiqiao's people got involved, they would not have to kill the chieftain, because they would be dead too!

Just as they were thinking about it, Qi Tiezui took out a string of bells from his pocket, and the "ding-ling-ling" sound startled everyone.

The guards drew their knives and pointed them at Qi Tiezui. Chu Ning stood up and looked at everyone coldly with Adjutant Zhang.

"Hey, hey! Can you guys calm down a little?

I just wanted to set a trap!

Are you guys that nervous?"

But those people were still staring at the string of bells in Qi Tiezui's hand. Chu Ning frowned and stood up, while Adjutant Zhang did not move, his eyes looking around vigilantly.

"Eighth Master, let me help you." He reached out to take the other end handed over by Qi Tiezui, and the two of them walked towards the door.

When everyone saw that Chu Ning was fine after taking it, it seemed to be just an ordinary bell, and they all sat back on the ground with lingering fear.

【Wanhong Temple (Wanhong Temple)】

In the second half of the night, everyone was sitting or lying down. Qi Tiezui rested his head on Adjutant Zhang's legs, taking Chu Ning's place again.

Chu Ning stood up and covered Adjutant Zhang and Qi Tiezui with a blanket, and subconsciously released his mental power to check.

Then he frowned and looked towards the door coldly. The silk bell at the door was still there, but a snake crawled in through the gap in the door.

The snake crawled to the feet of the chieftain, and seemed to sense something. It spit out its tongue and half of its body stood upright.

The man and the snake just looked at each other.

Chu Ning glared at the snake, and for some reason the snake stopped spitting out its tongue and just stood there straight.

Noticing some movement outside the temple, Chu Ning moved his arms and legs, thinking that he would have to get rid of the people from Heiqiao Village later.

The big toast was not sleeping very deeply. He just felt a figure squatting beside him. He opened his eyes suddenly, but his mouth was covered by a handkerchief.

The chief chief opened his eyes wide in horror. Chu Ning noticed the tension among his men, so he turned his head to the side so that the chief chief could see him clearly.

“Shh, sis, excuse me.

The situation is urgent, look at your feet."

Chu Ning's voice reached the ears of the chief chieftain very softly. The chief chieftain suppressed the fear in his heart and moved his eyes downward.

I happened to see a poisonous snake standing upright, but the snake seemed to be fixed in place, not moving at all.

The big chieftain's heart beat faster. If this child hadn't deliberately let him find him, he probably wouldn't have known when he came to his side.

If he wanted to kill me, I would be a corpse now!

So, he saved himself.

The chief chief forced himself to calm down and stared at the special black mark on the snake's head. He immediately thought of Heiqiao Village.

Almost every household in Heiqiao Village raises snakes for hunting, and once bitten by a poisonous snake, the bitten part must be cut off quickly.

Otherwise, a little bit of toxin will flow into the heart with the blood, and within a minute, the person will be unable to recover.

The chief chieftain gritted his teeth, thinking that the people from Heiqiao Village were too vicious, so he nodded slightly, indicating to Chu Ning that he would not shout or scream.

Chu Ning then gently put down his hand, and the handkerchief fell to the ground as Chu Ning moved. The chief chief looked down, but didn't say anything.

I just think this kid is polite, but not much...

"I went to wake up my brother, and someone had already entered the yard.

Big Chief, protect yourself."

Chu Ning was speaking to the chief chieftain, and seeing that the chief chieftain's eyes were fixed on the motionless snake, he had no choice but to explain.

"Don't worry, he won't bite again."

Chu Ning did not explain why the snake did not move. At this time, hiding his strength from others would make the other party afraid of him.

Chu Ning seemed still uneasy after explaining to the chief, so he had to add, "As long as sister doesn't poke it."

The chief chief looked up at Chu Ning and saw the serious expression on the child's face, as if he was really worried that he would touch the snake. His forehead jumped involuntarily.

Who would touch a poisonous snake when they have nothing better to do? ! You must be sick! ! !

Seeing that the chieftain was looking at him strangely, Chu Ning did not think too much about it. He stood up and went to call Adjutant Zhang and Qi Tiezui.

As for the others, except for the killers, they were all just ordinary strong men. The people from Heiqiao Village outside were carrying knives. He remembered that Qi Tiezui seemed to have a bag of powder on him...

The people of Heiqiao Village outside the temple gate saw that their poisonous pet had entered, but there was no sound from inside for a long time, so they thought that the person had been poisoned to death in his sleep.

The leader waved his hand behind him, holding a knife, and walked into the ruined temple carefully.

There was only a door between them and the house, and the leader put his ear to the door, trying to listen for any sound from inside.

Suddenly, the door of the dilapidated temple was flung open, and the leader of the Heiqiao Village assassins was greeted by a powerful fist.

The killer Black Joe only felt a buzzing sound in his ears. Not only that, his eyes went dark and he staggered and fell on his back on the ground beside the door.

Everyone was awakened by the noise, and the remaining people from the Heiqiao Village were still standing on tiptoe as they stood in the yard.

Chu Ning stretched his head out from behind Adjutant Zhang to look, hmm, it felt very stealthy!

Those who know that they are here to kill people think that they are crazy. Those who don’t think that they are crazy.

They came to this dilapidated temple with leaks everywhere to steal things...

The one who delivered this powerful punch was Adjutant Zhang, who was called up by Chu Ning.

Adjutant Zhang seemed to sense something and when he looked down, he saw Chu Ning rubbing against the ground with half of his body exposed.

Adjutant Zhang sighed helplessly at Chu Ning's desire to watch the fun. He raised his hand to press down on Chu Ning's furry head, and gently pushed Chu Ning to Qi Tiezui who was standing behind him.

"Master Ba, keep an eye on him."

Qi Tiezui pulled Chu Ning's arm and backed away, "Worry!"

"Eighth Master?! I'm useful!" Chu Ning pointed at the stiff snake on the ground and defended himself.

Qi Tiezui glanced at her and said perfunctorily, "Okay, okay, our Ningning is awesome.

But let's leave this matter to Adjutant Zhang and the guards led by the chief chieftain.

Otherwise, it would be a waste of so many people walking along the way."

Qi Tiezui thought he spoke quietly, but in fact, the big chieftain who was no more than 2 meters away from them heard everything.

The big chieftain closed his eyes and heard it! He heard it!

"Leave two people to stay with me to protect the prince, and the rest will deal with the people from Hei Qiao Village."

Seeing this, Chu Ning curled his lips and followed Qi Tiezui to hide beside the prince's coffin, where he met the eyes of the great chieftain.

Qi Tiezui's idea was very simple. He definitely couldn't take Chu Ning with him when there were so many killers. Adjutant Zhang was not around, and only the big chieftain had guards. So it wouldn't be too much for them to take one of them!

Chu Ning raised his paw and waved at the big toast, "Sister~"

The chief chief had some affection for the child who woke him up, but he was still on guard and nodded slightly as a response.

Qi Tiezui was amazed and felt that the child had magical powers, like a little sun, making people around him want to get close to him and believe in him.

The people from Heiqiao Village saw that there were more people on the other side and did not intend to engage in a head-on confrontation. They simply dragged the killer leader and retreated.

"Don't chase after a desperate enemy.

If they were really caught, it would give the Heiqiao Village a reason to attack the Baiqiao Village.

The most urgent task now is to bury the prince as soon as possible and then send the chieftain back to the village safely."

Adjutant Zhang stopped the guards, and the chieftain's guards looked at each other and finally did not chase after them.

Everyone returned to the dilapidated temple, and the guard relayed what Adjutant Zhang said to the chief chieftain, who nodded, obviously agreeing with Adjutant Zhang's statement.

The killers arranged by the law protectors fell silent collectively. They were now certain that Adjutant Zhang, Qi Tiezui and Chu Ning had been helping the chieftain all the way, and each of them had his own strengths, so they could not delay any longer.

However, Hei Qiao's men had just completed a sneak attack and everyone was still alert. If they wanted to take action, they could only find an opportunity on the way.

Chu Ning quietly poked Adjutant Zhang and Qi Tiezui, “Eighth Master, Adjutant.

Are the people who just attacked us the corpses of the Hei Qiaozhai we encountered during the day?"

Qi Tiezui nodded and touched Chu Ning's head. "What you see may not be true. It's just that they did perform some kind of ritual to temporarily block their breath and create the illusion of death."

Adjutant Zhang walked towards the chieftain over there. This time the chieftain did not let the guards stop him from approaching.

"Big Chief, those people will probably come again once they realize what's going on. We have to leave now."

The chief chief nodded, saying that it was no longer safe here and there was no need for them to stay here and invite a wolf into the house. He then gave orders to everyone in a loud voice.

"Pack your things and set off as soon as possible while Hei Qiao's men leave."

After everyone packed up their belongings and put out the fire, the group continued on their way to the prince's burial site in the dimly lit sky.

Chu Ning's face gradually turned pale, Qi Tiezui was gasping for breath, and Adjutant Zhang was supporting the two of them on the left and right. At this moment, the three of them were already walking at the end of the team.

“I can’t do it anymore, I can’t do it anymore.

...You just said that people from Heiqiao Village would come, and these people ran for their lives.

Who can bear this?

Xiao Ning, are you okay? "

Chu Ning frowned as he looked at the team that was getting farther and farther away from them. This wouldn't work. They were getting farther and farther away from the chieftain, and those killers would definitely attack on the way.

Chu Ning clenched his hanging hands into fists, dug his fingernails into his palms, and forced down the fishy sweetness in his throat.

"Master Ba, Adjutant, we are fine.

I have to rush over first. I can't leave the big chieftain alone.

Adjutant, you lead Master Ba behind, as long as you don't fall too far behind, there should be no problem."

After Chu Ning finished speaking, he ran away without looking at Qi Tiezui and Adjutant Zhang.

From the beginning of the journey, Chu Ning deliberately avoided the sight of Qi Tiezui and Adjutant Zhang, for fear that they would notice something.

Adjutant Zhang supported Qi Tiezui and said that what Chu Ning said was indeed the best way.

If he went there himself, he would be able to follow the great chieftain very quickly, but there would be a time lag in the support from Qi Tiezui and Chu Ning, and those killers mixed in with the porters would be difficult to deal with.

When Qi Tiezui saw Chu Ning quickening his pace, he felt as if Chu Ning could be blown away by a gust of wind.

Qi Tiezui rummaged around in his pocket and took out the medicinal wine he had prepared earlier. He opened the bottle and was about to drink it when he paused.

"What's wrong, Mr. Ba?"

Adjutant Zhang saw Qi Tiezui standing there in a daze and started to ask.

Qi Tiezui was thinking, this thing can help restore strength, but he has to drink a sip every time he walks ten meters, so this little amount is definitely not enough.

Wouldn't it be faster to give it directly to Adjutant Zhang and let him carry him or carry him on his back?

So Qi Tiezui patted Adjutant Zhang on the shoulder and said, "Come on, Adjutant, come and drink!

You drink more effectively than I do."

Adjutant Zhang looked at the medicinal wine and hesitated for a moment, then took the jug and drank it all in one gulp with a frown.

Then he turned around, carried Qi Tiezui on his back and ran forward.

Chu Ning's lips turned pale from running so hard before he finally caught up with the team.

Seen from behind, the team was moving too fast and was separated into small groups by the tall, dry, yellow, upright weeds.

Seeing this, Chu Ning did not stop, bypassed the large group, and approached the chieftain from the side.

He discovered that the killers had already begun to act.

Chu Ning didn't hesitate and called out to the big toast, "Sister!"

The chief chieftain looked in Chu Ning's direction, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.

The killer guards beside the chieftain drew their swords and slashed at him.

Upon seeing this, Chu Ning took a quick step forward, kicked the killer guard's arm away, and dived into the haystack with the big chieftain, temporarily avoiding a wave of attacks.

Chu Ning pulled the big chieftain and kept changing the route, alert to the movements in the bushes around him, while keeping moving forward.

The chieftain frowned and looked at Chu Ning, "Who are you and those two people? Why do you save me again and again?"

"We just want to ask the chieftain about some things. It's not about the internal affairs of Baiqiao Village."

Chu Ning smiled at the chief chief in the midst of his busy schedule, and the chief chief was shocked by Chu Ning's expression.

"Are you okay? Find a secluded place to rest for a while."

"You can't rest! The killer behind you may come at any time.

The adjutant and Master Eight are rushing over here. I am not in a good condition to handle so many people at the moment."

Chu Ning directly rejected the chieftain. After a slight hesitation, the chieftain held Chu Ning's wrist and supported Chu Ning's arm with his other hand.

Chu Ning looked at the big toast in surprise, and then smiled weakly, "Thank you, sister."

The chief chieftain had a sullen face. Ever since the death of the prince, she had forced herself not to be sad or to miss him, and had forced herself to survive the oppression of the guardians and elders in the village.

She, Shi Yuchan, can't fall here.

Chu Ning, Qi Tiezui and Adjutant Zhang helped the chieftain with a purpose, which would only make him feel more at ease. All they had to do was tell them the information they wanted to know afterwards.

What he was afraid of was that these people would risk their lives to protect him, which made the chieftain feel extremely tormented, and he felt that nothing he did could make up for this kindness.

"You helped me, and now I am just paying it back.

If I can return to Baiqiao Village alive, I will not tell you anything you ask, except for matters related to the safety of Baiqiao Village. I will tell you everything else I know."

This is the promise made by the chief.

"Thank you, sister. We will definitely help you bury the prince successfully and bring you back to Baiqiao Village safely."

Chu Ning's voice was a little weak. Although his face was pale, his clear and bright eyes were full of sincerity. He also gave the assurance to the chieftain.

"it's here!"

Finally they were discovered. Chu Ning pushed the chieftain away and took off the dagger from his waist.

"Sister, lend me this for a while, I'll return it to you later.

Stand behind me."

The two men gradually slowed down their pace until two killers appeared. Chu Ning stood still and faced the approach of the two killers very calmly.
