Traveling Through the Grave Robbers' Chronicles: Starting from Meeting You

Zhang Hanyan looked at Zhang Qiling's nervous expression and felt a warm current flowing through her heart, warming her every limb.

She reached out and gently tugged at the hem of his clothes. He turned around to look at her, silently asking her what was wrong with his eyes.

"Brother, it's okay. If they dare to say a word, I will kill them. Don't worry."

As soon as she finished speaking, Wu Xie, Fatty and the others felt an inexplicable chill on their necks, as if a knife was placed on their necks.

They touched their necks together, and fixed their gazes on the black gold ancient sword that Zhang Qiling had not taken back.

The scene of him chopping a bunch of rats to death one by one with the knife in his hand was still vivid in my mind. Thinking back on it now, it seemed to appear before my eyes.

Wu Xie swallowed involuntarily and said in a low voice.

"Brother, we really don't have any other thoughts. We are just curious. Otherwise, why don't you put away your knife first?"

"Yes, Fatty, I swear, I really don't mean anything else."

Zhang Hanyan was amused by their frightened expressions and directly picked up Zhang Qiling's knife and put it back into the scabbard.

"Okay, little brother, don't scare them anymore. If they get sick again, we'll have to carry them out with all our strength."

She looked at Wu Xie and Fatty, "That move just now is what you know as flying with a sword. Okay, that's enough, let's keep going."

Wu Xie and Fatty originally thought they would hear some magical explanation, but in the end, she dismissed them with just one sentence.

"That's it? Just one sentence? Nothing else?"

The fat man looked at Zhang Hanyan in disbelief, hoping that she would say a few more words.

"Well, that's all. If you want to know more, you can go back and read more fantasy novels that Wu Xie mentioned. They are all pretty much the same."

Wu Xie and Fatty looked at each other and saw disappointment and helplessness in each other's eyes.

"Hanyan, this should be the lowest level of the tomb, right? I see there are only stone walls around it, and there is no passage going down."

Wu Xie looked around and stated his conclusion.

Before Zhang Hanyan could explain to him, Lao Yang walked to the side of the main coffin, untied his belt, put it on the corpse, and pulled it up.

He reached out to the bottom of the coffin and pulled it, and a stone slab behind the coffin sank, revealing a secret passage leading downwards.

The secret passage is a gentle downward slope, extremely smooth, and it is obvious that it was dug by humans.

Wu Xie and Fatty turned on their flashlights and shone them downwards, but the secret passage was too long and the flashlights could not reach very far.

"Oh my god, Lao Yang, you went down from here before? What's down there?"

"There is a huge pit below. In the center of the pit is the bronze sacred tree I told you about before. Shall we go down and take a look?"

The experiences along the way and the tomb passage hidden behind the coffin made Wu Xie extremely curious about what was underneath.

He couldn't wait to go down and take a look at how big the bronze sacred tree that Lao Yang had been thinking about was.

"Okay, now that we've come this far, it would be a shame if we didn't go down and take a look. Fatty, come with us?"

"Okay, Tian Zhen. Fatty, I also want to see what good things are down there. Why is the passage hidden so secretly?"

A few people started working immediately, completely forgetting what had just happened.

Lao Yang jumped down the cave first and slid down, followed by Wu Xie and Fatty.

"Brother, let's go down and take a look at the bronze tree. I want to know which is more spectacular, the bronze tree or the bronze gate."

Zhang Qiling glanced at her sideways, and she had a smile on her face. The moment she turned her head, their eyes met in the air.

"Okay, I'll walk behind you."

"it is good."

Zhang Hanyan jumped down from the cave nimbly, followed closely by Zhang Qiling. The two of them passed through a long secret passage and stood steadily in front of Wu Xie and the others.

"Hanyan, little brother, look."

Wu Xie pointed at the bronze sacred tree standing in the center of the pit, a bronze pillar with a diameter of about ten meters, reaching straight into the sky, out of reach.

There are many tung sticks of different sizes and thicknesses on the tung pillar, densely packed with at least thousands of them.

"Hanyan, little brother, what do you think this thing is used for? I can only tell the approximate dynasty, probably from the Xia and Shang dynasties."

Zhang Hanyan's flashlight shone on the runes engraved on the bronze sacred tree. These runes can also be found on the bronze gate of Changbai Mountain.

“They are used for sacrifices. The rune grooves on the pillars are blood channels for drawing blood. They throw living people down from them and hang them on the branches.

The branches pierce their chest and abdomen, and the blood flows down through these blood grooves, achieving the purpose of the sacrifice. "

"Fuck, these people are so cruel, aren't they? They drained the blood out of those people's bodies and killed them alive."

The fat man walked up to the paulownia pillar and carefully observed the grooves on it.

Thousands of years have passed, and the bloodstains are no longer there, and nothing can be seen at all.

Lao Yang took out a few pairs of gloves that he had prepared long ago and handed a pair to each person.

Wu Xie looked at him in confusion, "Why are you handing out gloves?"

Lao Yang pointed to the branches on the tung tree and said, "Of course I climbed up. The good stuff I told you about before is right up there."

"What? We have to climb higher? It's so high, how long will it take to reach the top?"

Wu Xie didn't want to climb up, so he touched the scattered branches to confirm the feasibility of climbing.

"This thing is pretty easy to climb, but I don't know how long it will take."

The fat man waved his hand indifferently, "No matter how long it takes to climb, I want to go up and take a look to see what good things are there on top."

After he finished speaking, he put on gloves and started to climb up. Seeing this, Wu Xie had no choice but to resign himself to his fate, put on gloves and followed the fat man.

Lao Yang saw that they had already started to take action, and when he thought of the things above, an uncontrollable look of joy appeared on his face.

Zhang Hanyan looked at the excitement between his brows and ignored him.

"Little brother, I'll take you up, and we'll just wait for them at the finish line."

After she finished speaking, she took Zhang Qiling's hand and flew up on the sword, flying straight up under the envious gazes of Wu Xie and the others.

"Tian Zhen, do you think Han Yan will come down and take us flying later? Fatty, I want to experience it again."

Wu Xie sneered, "You've experienced it once, but I haven't experienced it once!"

He looked up at the endless bronze trees and muttered to himself.

"It would be great if Han Yan could come down and take me flying later. I really envy you, you can fly whenever you want."

"Yes, little brother is really lucky. You don't know that when you and Lao Yang were exploring the way down there, Han Yan took out all the delicious food from her backpack, all for you, little brother."

"I know. I've seen it once before at the Seven Star Lu Palace."

Fatty and Wu Xie smiled at each other. During their conversation, Lao Yang had already left them both far behind.

The two of them were so envious that they couldn't express it in words. They didn't know what Zhang Qiling, who had already reached the terminal and was leaning on the bronze branch with a pale face, would think if he heard what they said.
