Tomb robber: I am the tenth of the nine gates

Chu Ning's fire burned almost half of the cobwebs in the entire tomb. At this moment, on the walls around the tomb, you can see groups of black lines under the white cobwebs.

There was an unpleasant burnt smell in the air.

When Zhang Qishan helped Chu Ning towards the door, he saw the black mass on the wall.

Suddenly, a hand with clear joints stretched out from Zhang Qishan's side. Chu Ning grabbed Zhang Qishan's hand fiercely, preventing Zhang Qishan from contacting the black mass.

Chu Ning himself came into contact with the black mass on behalf of Zhang Qishan.

Zhang Qishan relied on Chu Ning's strength and did not insist on exploring.

"...Ahem, it looks... like hair, cough...

I don’t know why the wall is covered…”

Chu Ning divided his words several times before he finished speaking. He forced himself to stop Zhang Qishan, turned his head and raised the corners of his mouth at Zhang Qishan.

"Hoo~ Lord Buddha, do you believe me?"

Zhang Qishan no longer knew what he thought of Chu Ning at this time. Words such as suspect, stranger, person of unknown origin... seemed to be unable to accurately summarize the child Chu Ning.

Call him smart, but he is really good when there is danger; call him stupid, but he can keep up with his own thinking... If Zhang Qishan had to express his views on Chu Ning.

That was probably just "interested". Zhang Qishan admitted that he had the intention of testing Chu Ning at first, so he didn't make any big move after Chu Ning took away the torch.

Chu Ning, a person who appeared out of thin air, was far less important than Qi Tiezui and Adjutant Zhang in his heart. The care he took along the way made him feel a little compassionate.

Maybe it's Chu Ning's cleverness, maybe it's Chu Ning's unguarded confession of her heart... Maybe it's the helplessness she felt when she was a child since she was the leader of the family, and she doesn't want to befall this child...

It was more about the firm promise of 'protection' that Zhang Qishan began to laugh at himself for trusting others casually.

But the truest thought in my heart is to try to believe that this child who suddenly appears may be an unexpected help to my plan.

His thoughts lasted only a moment, Zhang Qishan thought, looking down at Chu Ning's face and those bright and clear eyes.

Chu Ning, don’t let me down.

Zhang Qishan sighed inwardly, and then answered Chu Ning's question succinctly.

"trust you."

Just be confused for a while, the most troublesome result is to solve this mess by yourself, starting from now, Zhang Qishan decided.

He takes Chu Ning with him and inserts Chu Ning into his plan without revealing anything. The person who appears out of thin air is the cleanest and has the least to do with the Nine Sects...

After Chu Ning heard Zhang Qishan's words, she felt a little happy. According to this progress, she would soon be able to awaken the law of heaven, complete the task and fulfill her long-cherished wish.

"Then let me do it."

Chu Ning took the dagger from Zhang Qishan's hand, grabbed a piece of black hair and cut it off with the dagger. After cleaning it, a small raised patch of earth on the wall was revealed.

Zhang Qishan looked at the ball in Chu Ning's hand with disgust in his eyes.

Zhang Qishan: →_→

Chu Ning:???

Zhang Qishan was about to take over the research when Chu Ning said hurriedly.

"Lord Buddha, don't touch it!

From now until we go out, unless it is something I explicitly handed to you, the rest cannot be contaminated at all! "

Chu Ning's hands began to tremble, but her tone was weak but strong.

Zhang Qishan didn't blame Chu Ning's ordering tone at all. In fact, after learning that Chu Ning's blood had the effect of driving away fireflies, Zhang Qishan thought that Chu Ning's next actions must be for warning purposes.

"I understand, don't worry, I'm here."

So Zhang Qishan helped Chu Ning to prevent Chu Ning from losing strength and falling.

Chu Ning inserted the dagger into the wall and dug a few times at the bulge. A green jade medal with gold patterns appeared in the wall.

After taking out the jade token and confirming that there was nothing wrong with it, Chu Ning handed it to Zhang Qishan.

After Zhang Qishan took the jade sign and looked at it, he remembered that it seemed to be a sign from the second master's family.

Chu Ning swayed and leaned against Zhang Qishan. Zhang Qishan hurriedly protected Chu Ning from falling to the ground.

"Chun Ning? Chu Ning!"

Zhang Qishan frowned and called twice, with anxiety in his eyes.

"...Buddha...go quickly, I...can't hold it anymore...there's something..."

Chu Ning slowly closed her eyes, and her voice became softer and softer until finally it was as thin as a gnat.

Zhang Qishan looked worried. He got closer and heard Chu Ning's weak instructions to leave quickly. After Zhang Qishan confirmed that Chu Ning had fainted due to blood loss and exhaustion, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Pulling one of Chu Ning's arms and carrying Chu Ning on his back, Zhang Qishan looked around the tomb. This tomb seemed... alive!

Recalling what Chu Ning said before she fell into coma, "There is something..." There are dangers hidden in this tomb that she doesn't know about!

Zhang Qishan believed in Chu Ning and got the clues he wanted during this trip. Feeling the increasingly weak breath on his back, he hurriedly walked towards the stone gate where he came from.

Zhang Qishan pushed back the stone door with a little force, strode up the steps, and saw Qi Tiezui and Adjutant Zhang waiting outside.

When the two saw Zhang Qishan coming out, they hurried forward.

"Lord Buddha, are you okay?

? ! Young Master, what is this? ! "

Qi Tiezui looked worried and breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Zhang Qishan intact. However, before he could breathe, he turned around and saw Chu Ning on Zhang Qishan's back, who looked as if he was dead.

"Lord Buddha?"

Adjutant Zhang wanted to take Chu Ning for Zhang Qishan, but Zhang Qishan turned sideways and avoided it slightly, "I'm overdrafted, get out quickly! It's very dangerous inside!"

The two of them didn't say anything. The three of them didn't stop too much and ran quickly along the way they came.

Chu Ning's consciousness was empty, but this time his body felt unnaturally hot, and the five red light balls in his consciousness were beating uneasily.

Suddenly, Chu Ning trembled suddenly, and Zhang Qishan felt it and asked Qi Tiezui to check what happened to Chu Ning.

"Old Ba! Let's see what's wrong with Chu Ning."

"Ah? Ah! Lord Buddha, the young master is in very bad condition. He seems to have a fever!

What have you experienced? "

Qi Tiezui's voice was urgent, and he looked at Chu Ning, whose face was pale, but his face was red due to the fever, his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and his brows were furrowed.

Zhang Qishan frowned and recalled that the only difference between Chu Ning and himself was that... he touched the hair on the wall!

"Let's go out and find the second master!"

Zhang Qishan did not explain too much and quickened his pace. Adjutant Zhang took the lead and got out of the exit first, then turned around to meet Zhang Qishan and Chu Ning.
