However, something strange happened: the flames did not illuminate the space behind the door after they entered.
Instead, it seemed to have been swallowed up by something, disappearing without a trace.
"What's going on?" Hu Bayi asked in surprise.
"How could my flames be engulfed? Is there something strange behind this door?"
Shirley Yang was also very surprised. She said, "If it only swallowed the light, it wouldn't have swallowed the flames as well."
There must be something behind this door that we don't know about.
Lin Yang pondered for a moment, then suddenly said, "It's very likely an array."
"An array?" Shirley Yang and the other two were taken aback at the same time.
Lin Yang explained, "The flames you saw disappeared; they might have been moved to another location..."
"In other words, anything can be instantly transferred from inside the door."
"If we rush in, we might be transferred to an unknown location."
Upon hearing this, Fatty Wang exclaimed in surprise:
"Wouldn't that be instant teleportation? Does such a thing really exist in this world?"
Lin Yang nodded and said, "Although it is rare, it does exist."
"Moreover, since this palace was built by the Prince of Xian, it is not surprising that he set up some formations inside."
Fatty Wang's eyes widened in astonishment: "Holy crap, isn't this like teleportation? It's like something out of a science fiction movie!"
Hu Bayi frowned: "This is indeed instantaneous teleportation, but the question is, where will it teleport a person to?"
Shirley Yang said thoughtfully, "Since this is the palace of the King of Xian, then the tomb of the King of Xian might be behind the door."
Lin Yang took a deep breath: "Whether it's the tomb of the King of Xian or not, we'll know once we go inside."
After saying that, he went in first without hesitation.
The moment Lin Yang stepped into the darkness, his figure vanished from everyone's sight.
"Boss!" Fatty Wang exclaimed.
Shirley Yang and Hu Bayi followed closely behind.
Behind the door was pitch black darkness, as if time and space had been swallowed up.
The three of them proceeded cautiously, afraid of triggering any traps.
Suddenly, Hu Bayi felt a faint breeze brush against his cheek.
"Watch out!" he shouted, grabbing Fatty Wang and Shirley Yang.
But it was too late; the three of them felt a sudden lightness in their bodies.
It was as if I was being drawn into it by an invisible force.
Then, everything went black, and they lost consciousness...
When they awoke again, they found themselves in a huge stone chamber.
The walls of the stone chamber are carved with strange patterns and characters.
"Where is this?" Fatty Wang looked around in confusion.
Hu Bayi carefully observed the environment inside the stone chamber: "Judging from the layout and decoration here, it is very likely the tomb of the Prince Xian."
Shirley Yang nodded in agreement: "That's right, the atmosphere here is completely different from outside, this must be the tomb of King Xian."
Lin Yang stood up from the ground: "Now that we've found the tomb of King Xian, let's look around."
Chapter 133: The Strange Liquid in the Tomb of the King of Xian!
Lin Yang led Shirley Yang, Fatty Wang, and Hu Bayi, and the four of them carefully searched the dimly lit tomb.
These tombs seem to have been sealed for thousands of years, and every wall is covered with eerie shamanistic rituals from the ancient Dian Kingdom, sending chills down your spine.
They passed through one winding passage after another, and finally arrived at a spacious hall.
Stone coffins are placed everywhere, densely packed, like a desolate forest of stone coffins.
“These stone coffins look rather eerie.”
Shirley Yang said warily, her gaze sweeping over the stone coffins as if searching for some clue.
Fatty Wang, however, didn't take it seriously. He casually walked up to a stone coffin and reached out to push it.
"Tch, what could possibly be inside? At most, it'll be some rice dumplings or something."
"I'm a veteran of countless battles, why would I be afraid of these things?"
"Fatty, be careful," Hu Bayi warned, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes.
"What's there to be afraid of? It's just some big rice dumplings or something."
Wang Pangzi was already reckless. He gave the stone coffin a hard push, but found it wouldn't budge. "How can it not be opened?"
Fatty Wang muttered in confusion. He pushed it a few more times, but the stone coffin remained as solid as a rock.
"These stone coffins are probably not that simple."
Lin Yang's eyes held a profound depth:
"If I'm not mistaken, there should be mechanisms on these stone coffins."
"Old Hu, you're the expert on government affairs, come and take a look!" Fatty Wang shouted at the top of his lungs, looking anxious.
Upon hearing this, Hu Bayi had no choice but to bite the bullet and begin carefully searching for possible mechanisms.
His eyes scanned the tomb chamber like a scanner, not missing a single corner.
Before long, Hu Bayi's gaze settled on an inconspicuous stone wall.
He reached out and gently pressed down.
With a "click," a sudden sound of a mechanism activating rang out.
Upon seeing this, Fatty Wang was completely dumbfounded. He slapped his thigh hard:
"Damn, Lao Hu, you've got a keen eye, haven't you found the key?"
Before Hu Bayi could answer, the stone coffins began to shake violently, as if they were about to explode at any moment.
"Fuck, what's going on?"
Fatty Wang was startled; his eyes widened.
Looking at those swaying stone coffins, I was afraid that some terrifying thing might jump out from inside.
"You fatso, I told you not to press those buttons randomly, but you wouldn't listen," Hu Bayi glared at Fatty Wang and said irritably.
Because they were standing near the stone coffin, the two could only keep looking around, fearing that something unexpected might happen.
Lin Yang and Shirley Yang stood on the edge, quietly watching this scene.
"Boss, what exactly is inside these stone coffins?"
Shirley Yang asked curiously, looking at the swaying stone coffins with a hint of curiosity and anticipation in her eyes.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yang simply smiled mysteriously: "Hehe, anyway, it's a big surprise."
"Since it was Fatty and Lao Hu who did it, let them deal with it."
With that, he turned and walked toward the next place.
Seeing this, Shirley Yang could only look at Fatty Wang and Hu Bayi with sympathy before following Lin Yang away.
"Holy crap, the boss just left us like that?"
Fatty Wang shouted as he watched Lin Yang's departing figure.
Hu Bayi looked at him helplessly and said, "Serves you right for moving around."
He paused, then said, "Now that the boss is gone, we'll have to deal with what's inside the stone coffin ourselves."
As soon as he finished speaking, all the stone coffins were opened.
The coffin lid seemed to be pushed off by something and crashed down on Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang.
"Holy crap!" Fatty Wang was shocked when he saw this, and he quickly waved his hand and rushed forward.
Hu Bayi, on the other hand, used the Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Secret Technique to constantly change his form and dodge the flying coffin lid.
After all the stone lids had been placed on the ground, the two looked at the stone coffins with a puzzled expression.
Because they discovered that nothing jumped out of there!
In Wang Pangzi's memory, the stone coffin usually contained some zongzi (sticky rice dumplings).
Those are ancient corpses that, for some reason, have become neither human nor ghost, and are extremely difficult to deal with.
They had encountered similar situations while tomb raiding before, and each time they barely escaped with their lives.
But now, after these stone coffins were opened, there was no movement at all, which made him very strange.
"Damn it, did we get tricked by that old man, Prince Xian?" Fatty Wang muttered to himself, looking utterly frustrated.
There was nothing in the stone coffin. Wasn't this just playing a trick on them?
Hu Bayi shook his head, his face grave: "Don't be careless, better safe than sorry."
"I have a feeling this place isn't simple; we'd better be careful."
Although there was nothing in the stone coffin, Hu Bayi had a bad feeling that something big was about to happen.
Fatty Wang, however, disagreed: "Old Hu, you're being too cautious. Look, there's nothing in this stone coffin. What are we afraid of?"
As he spoke, he specifically looked into the stone coffin, and indeed there was nothing there.
However, the moment he finished speaking, the stone coffins began to shake violently again.
This time, the shaking was even greater than before, as if the entire hall was about to collapse.
Wang Pangzi and Hu Bayi's expressions changed drastically; they knew things were going badly.
Then, under their watchful eyes, a strange black liquid began to slowly seep from the stone coffins.
