Mo Yuming walked forward and knocked on the stone wall and found that the texture of the stone wall was very rough. It seemed that the entire mountain was connected behind the stone wall, so it should be a very thick stone wall.

"How long did you absorb energy here?" Mo Yuming asked.

"Actually, I'm not sure, because it was daytime when Chen Hefeng and I came here. The moment I absorbed the jade energy was not my initiative, but the jade was forcibly fused with me. Then I closed my eyes inexplicably and was directly surrounded by that energy. Then my consciousness was like falling asleep." Bai Zimu recalled with a look of regret.

"When I woke up, it was daytime and Chen Hefeng was not around. I thought he was going to collect something or explore the surroundings, so I continued to wait there. But I waited for a whole day but no one showed up, and neither did the next day. So I used jade to condense words in the cave, telling him to wait for me here if he came back. Then I went out to look for him, but I didn't find him either."

After listening to Bai Zimu's description, Mo Yuming decided to first calculate the time when Bai Zimu absorbed the jade, so as to determine how many days Chen Hefeng disappeared.

Mo Yuming simply took out a notebook and started drawing a timeline. Through constant comparison between the two, he finally determined that Bai Zimu absorbed energy for three days. So where would Chen Hefeng go during these three days?

Mo Yuming continued to go deeper into the cave, but soon he reached the end. There was nothing suspicious in the cave except densely packed stones of various sizes.

"Xiaoyuan, can you smell Chen Hefeng?" Mo Yuming touched the little cat on his shoulder.

Xiao Yuan jumped off Mo Yuming's shoulder, lay on the ground and sniffed, then replied: "His scent is a bit scattered and not coherent, a bit intermittent."

"How is it? Can the kitten smell something?" Bai Zimu didn't understand what Xiaoyuan said.

"Let's wait a moment and let Xiaoyuan look for it." Mo Yuming saw that Xiaoyuan was still moving and did not make a conclusion.

Xiao Yuan walked to the small space where Bai Zimu absorbed the energy of the jade stone, and then walked around in it for several circles, feeling a little confused: "His scent is the strongest here, but his scent is not consistent with those outside. It feels a bit like suddenly appearing somewhere else..."

Xiao Yuan seemed unable to come up with an accurate description. After hearing what Xiao Yuan said, Mo Yuming thought for a long time, and suddenly an idea came to him. He asked, "Is it like playing chess?"

As he spoke, Mo Yuming casually drew a Gobang chessboard on his notebook, and then took a coin to demonstrate the moves of playing chess to Xiaoyuan.

"Yes, that's right. His scent only appears in one place, but there is no smell along the route from one place to another, just like a moved chess piece!" Xiaoyuan nodded in agreement.

Mo Yuming told Bai Zimu this information, but the answer made them both even more confused. It was known that Chen Hefeng was an ice-type mutant, and his abilities could hardly achieve such an effect. In other words, something was affecting Chen Hefeng.

The two stayed in the cave for quite some time but didn't find anything, so Mo Yuming decided to go outside the cave to take a look.

As soon as he came out of the cave, he saw the tomb directly below the cave entrance, so he asked Bai Zimu: "Have you been to that place?"

Bai Zimu looked in that direction and said uncertainly, "I don't think... I've never been there."

This is a bit weird. After all, Bai Zimu has been looking for Chen Hefeng for more than ten days. It is unlikely that he would miss a place so close. Moreover, this place looks quite unique. If it were Mo Yuming himself, he would definitely go there to look for him as soon as possible.

Mo Yuming also saw the confusion on Bai Zimu's face, and he immediately said, "Let's go there and take a look first."

"it is good."

After the two men went down the mountain, they came to the stone building. The entrance of this building was probably changed into a modern iron door to facilitate tourists' visits. Mo Yuming opened it with his skills.

After they entered, the first thing they saw was a stone carving on a wall. On the wall, it showed subjects of a certain dynasty worshiping a person sitting in a sedan chair. The person was wearing a crown with tassels on his head and should be an emperor.

There was a glass display case in front of the stone sculpture. There were stone-carved words inside the display case, but Mo Yuming could not understand any of the words, so they continued walking forward.

Ahead was a very straight stone corridor without any windows or vents. Walking inside gave people the illusion of forgetting time. Mo Yuming touched the wall of the corridor and felt that it was very similar to the stones of Yushan.

Finally they reached the corner. Mo Yuming and Bai Zimu were both nervous, weapons in hand, and slowly walked over.

The corner leads to another corridor, but this corridor is different from the one you came in from. This corridor is not sealed, but has a glass wall that allows you to clearly see the funerary clay figurines in the space on the left.

These clay figurines were arranged neatly, and none of them were damaged.

Mo Yuming always felt that these rows of clay figurines looked creepy, mainly because their movements were clearly as if they were driving a carriage, but their heads were all looking towards the glass wall, which was their direction.

"There is also a strange energy here." Bai Zimu frowned.

"Then let's go over and take a look."

When they left the area, the clay figurines that were looking at the glass wall turned their heads back.

Bai Zimu brought Mo Yuming to a downward passage, and pointed forward: "The energy seems to be inside."

There is still a glass wall in front, but this time the target seems to be farther away from the wall. You can vaguely see that if you go deeper, there is a rectangular structure that looks a bit like a coffin.

The two of them groped around but didn't find any place to go in. They guessed that this was the core area that tourists were not allowed to enter.

There was really no other way, so Mo Yuming silently chanted: "Amitabha, Jesus, Michael, Yuanshi Tianzun, and all the gods and immortals, may you bless us. Tomb owner, please don't blame us. We are mainly looking for someone and don't want to bother you. If we can't find him, we will leave."

After preparing himself mentally, Mo Yuming asked Xiao Yuan to use her fingernails to scratch a rectangular entrance on the glass. Bai Zimu, sword in hand, stepped in first.

"Shit shoveler, I, I feel a little scared." Xiao Yuan's hair all stood up, and the little bat stopped flying and held on to Mo Yuming's backpack tightly.

Mo Yuming also felt a powerful pressure that made the hairs on his body stand up, and his body seemed to want to kneel down unconsciously.

Bai Zimu seemed to be unaffected and went straight to the coffin.

Mo Yuming was just about to remind Bai Zimu to be careful. After all, in the tomb-robbing novels he had read before, there were often mechanisms or bad things inside the coffins. As a result, at this moment, he discovered that the lid of the coffin was open.
