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

Xie Yuchen turned on a high-intensity flashlight and shone it inside. He saw that on the floor of the cave, there were many pottery jars neatly arranged.

The mouth of each pottery jar was covered with long black hairs. The hairs were all over the ground, almost covering the entire ground.

These pottery jars are densely packed throughout the cave.

There were sunken holes on the surrounding walls, and the holes were filled with bamboo slips.

Wu Xie had seen these pottery jars in the Devil City of Tamutu, and he knew very well what was in these pottery jars.

He raised the flashlight and shone it, and in the bright light, he could immediately see the broken shell of the red corpse king on the ground.

"Xiaohua, don't touch these things. These clay jars are filled with red corpse beetle kings!"

Xie Yuchen nodded solemnly. He looked at Hei Xiazi beside him. Hei Xiazi just smiled and didn't want to explain.

He turned his head and looked towards the end of the cave. Behind the corner was the cave room where the Thousand-Mile Lock was placed as Zhang Hanyan said.

"Wu Xie, I'll go in first, you follow behind me, I'll wait for you inside."

After he finished speaking, he pulled out a stick from his backpack. Wu Xie looked at him in confusion, wondering how he was going to get past these densely packed and easily broken pottery jars.

Xie Yuchen did not explain to him. He just used the stick to push himself on the ground in front of him and flipped over. With a turn in the air, his feet stepped into the depression on the stone wall.

He loosened the stick that was supporting him on the ground and pulled it back. The moment he lost his balance, he bounced up again with the support of the stick, flipped over and jumped, and stepped on the depressions around him.

Repeat this process, and in a short while, you will reach the end of the passage.

Wu Xie stared at Xie Yuchen's smooth movements in amazement. He simply couldn't believe that Xie Yuchen's skills were so good.

"Wu Xie, come in quickly, it's easy to get here, it's not difficult at all!"

Xie Yuchen shouted at the end of the passage, completely ignoring Wu Xie's indescribable feelings at the moment.

When Hei Xia Zi heard Xie Yuchen's words, the corners of his mouth raised, forming an extremely beautiful arc.

He reached out and pushed Wu Xie, who was in a completely dazed state, and spoke calmly.

"Come on, Wu Xie. Master Huaer is still waiting for you."

Wu Xie turned his head and glared at him, growling, "Are you sure I can get through? You must be kidding!"

Hei Xia Zi shrugged helplessly, looking lazy.

"I didn't expect that. We are all descendants of the Nine Sects, but your Wu family is so relaxed towards you that you don't even know such a simple skill."

His words choked Wu Xie completely. He couldn't breathe in or out and felt extremely uncomfortable.

He thought of the several descendants of the Nine Gates that he knew, and after careful consideration, it seemed that he was the only one whose martial arts skills were the worst.

He could handle ordinary fights, but he asked himself if he could do the same thing as Jie Yuchen. He knew he could never do it.

Xie Yuchen, who successfully entered the cave, saw that Wu Xie was not moving and had no patience to wait for him any longer, so he said to Wu Xie at the entrance of the cave.

"You guys wait for me outside, I'll go in and take a look first."

He walked around the corner and entered the cave where the Thousand Mile Lock was placed. He walked to the Thousand Mile Lock and stared at the pattern of a Qilin stepping on a ghost on it.

"Xiaohua, what's inside? Is it the Qianli Lock that Hanyan mentioned?"

Wu Xie put his hands to his mouth in a trumpet shape and shouted. He waited for a long time, but Xie Yuchen did not respond to him.

"Xiaohua, please tell me something. What did you see?"

Xie Yuchen's hand gently stroked the carved patterns on the Qianli Lock. In the grooves of the patterns, there were some dark red debris.

He put the crumbs on his fingertips, rubbed them gently, and then put them under his nose to smell.

“These things… could it be the blood that the people of the Nine Gates poured on them back then?”

"Little flower!"

Wu Xie was still shouting at the entrance of the cave.

He frowned slightly and responded loudly.

"Inside is the Qianli Lock that my sister mentioned. Wu Xie, let the blind man bring you in."

Upon hearing this, Wu Xie turned to look at Hei Xia Zi, his eyes full of expectation. Hei Xia Zi looked into his sparkling eyes and sighed.

"What the hell is going on!"

He grabbed Wu Xie's arm tightly, and after a few flips and jumps, he landed at the end of the passage.

"Oh my god, I didn't expect that your Kung Fu is so good, Master Hei. You can lead me so easily!"

Hei Xiazi tilted his head to look at him, his sunglasses covering his rolled-up eyes.

"Let's go, stop dilly-dallying."

He stepped forward, and Wu Xie quickly followed him and joined Xie Yuchen in the cave.

Under the gaze of Wu Xie and Jie Yuchen, the Thousand Mile Lock was slowly turning, making irregular metallic sounds.

"This Qianli Lock must be quite old, right? After all these years, it can still function normally. However, the patterns on it are so strange. What are these dark red particles inside?"

Wu Xie rubbed his fingers inside the grooves of the pattern and picked up some particles to examine.

"These lines are blood draining grooves. A large amount of blood has been poured onto this iron plate. It should have been done by Zhang Dafoye and his men before."

After Xie Yuchen finished speaking, he looked at Hei Xia Zi, only to see him smiling and nodding, silently agreeing with what he said.

They took out the blueprint drawn by Zhang Hanyan, which clearly indicated how to open the Qianli Lock and obtain the password.

"How about we try it now?" Wu Xie asked hesitantly.

Xie Yuchen pondered for a moment. The blood they needed had not been delivered. Without blood, they would not be able to get the password even if they opened the Qianli Lock.

"Wait a little longer, they should be here soon."

After hearing what he said, Wu Xie had no choice but to stop thinking and wait quietly.

The Xie family's servants were very efficient. They only waited for about half an hour before the Xie family's servants came to the cave entrance holding an iron bucket filled with blood and called out to Xie Yuchen.

"Boss, the blood of cattle and sheep has been brought!"

"coming!"

Xie Yuchen responded loudly, and went out with Hei Xiazi to carry the iron bucket into the cave, and carefully poured it into the blood drain groove above the Qianli Lock.

The bright red blood flowed slowly along the lines and gathered until the pattern of the Qilin stepping on a ghost was completely soaked with blood.

After three or four minutes, the rotation of the Qianli Lock changed, and after getting stuck a few times, it stopped completely.

From under the Qianli Lock, there came a series of sounds of iron chains rubbing against each other. Then, the sound of iron chains rubbing against each other could be heard behind the walls around the cave.

Wu Xie and Jie Yuchen looked around at the cave walls. They watched with their own eyes as the three walls in front of them began to move strangely.

All the bamboo slips in the groove were pushed out and fell to the ground. The hole was filled and the wall of the cave turned into a solid stone wall.

They all looked at the changes around them with shock on their faces. The scene before them had such a huge impact on them.

The Zhang Family Ancient Building was designed by Yangshi Lei himself, and the anti-theft measures have been taken to the extreme.

To get in, someone who has entered the Zhang Family Ancient Building must take a picture of the pattern on the stone door, and then someone in Siguniang Mountain will activate the Qianli Lock and unlock it by comparing it with the pattern on the stone door to get the password to open the door.

"Xiaohua, what should we do next? Huo Xiangu and the others haven't sent the photos over yet."

"Wait! They left before us, the photos should be coming soon, let's go out first."

Wu Xie, Xie Yuchen and Hei Xia Zi left the cave and returned to the camp on the top of the mountain, waiting for Huo Xiangu to send them the photo of the stone gate of the Zhang family's ancient building.
