"How embarrassing!" Di Xiaoli rolled her eyes at him.
"Grandmaster Tian Yuan, if we split up, I'm willing to share the treasures with you.”
Lin Yi's words provoked Master Tian Yuan, who immediately wiped the tears off his face and stood up."Really?"
"It's true!" Lin Yi nodded with certainty and dodged."Grandmaster Tian Yuan, can you choose a way out now?”
"This…"
When he thought of the treasure, Master Tian Yuan had to pull himself together no matter how scared he was.
There was a saying in the antique store that said, if you don't open for business for three years, you'll eat for three years if you open. Not to mention that they would encounter such a large mausoleum. They might not have to worry about food and drink for the rest of their lives.
Master Tian Yuan stroked the small mustache on his chin."Alright, I choose the left."
"Sure!" Lin Yi nodded with a mysterious smile.
"No, I choose the right."
Master Tian Yuan stared at the change in Lin Yi's face, but he was disappointed. Lin Yi nodded faintly,"Sure!"
"Forget it, I'll go left."
As soon as Master Tian Yuan finished speaking, Di Xiaoli became furious."Hey, what's wrong with you? Still choosing? If you don't choose, then wait here. Lin Yi and I will go together.”
"Choose, the left side." Grandmaster Tian Yuan said with certainty.
"Alright then, after you, Master." Lin Yi gestured with his hands behind his back.
Master Tian Yuan was so nervous that he felt as if he was treading on thin ice. His legs moved forward as if they were tied to an iron chain. He walked into the passage on the left with trepidation.
He watched as he entered the passage, and then saw the secret door close with a bang. He was so shocked that he quickly turned around and slapped it."Hey, hey, forget it. Brother Lin, Brother Lin…"
Unfortunately, his shouts were gradually drowned out by the secret door.
Lin Yi smiled confidently and didn't say anything. He took the sword and went into the right tunnel. Di Xiaoli couldn't understand what Lin Yi was thinking and asked,"Mas…Oh, Lin Yi, why don't we take the middle passage?”
As soon as he finished speaking and they stepped in, the secret door on the right passageway closed with a rumble.
Lin Yi turned around and patted the door, smiling."Of the three passages, only the left and right sides are connected. Moreover, people must enter both sides to open the only path of survival.”
"Ah?"
Seeing his confident expression, Di Xiaoli was even more confused."Why? You've already seen through the mechanism of this ancient tomb?”
"Old Mister Gui Gu is known as the number one of the Hundred Schools of Thought in Gui Gu. He is second to none in mechanisms, metaphysics, military tactics, and so on. However, although this tomb is related to Old Mister Gui Gu, it is not his ancient tomb.”
Lin Yi pointed at the wall, his fingers touching the cracks between the bricks."This tomb leads to the deep sea. Old Mister Gui Gu's tomb is located in the Central Plains. If I'm not wrong, it must be near the Yellow River basin. This place belonged to the south and was close to the Yangtze River.”
"So you mean…this isn't Guigu 'zi's tomb?”Di Xiaoli's interest was piqued as she raised her eyebrows.
"This tomb isn't Mister Guigu 'zi, but it's related to the sect," Lin Yi shook his head. It's better to be careful."
"Metaphysical studies are really fascinating. No matter what, I have to study them thoroughly this time.”Di Xiaoli secretly said.
Lin Yi didn't bother with him. He frowned and chanted the incantation silently. He wasn't trying to kill the demon, but he was calculating something.
Gradually, the passage went deeper and deeper. If his prediction was correct, he should have reached the bottom of the sea by now, or at least passed the shallow beach.
"Roar!"
Suddenly, a deep and soft roar came from the depths of the tunnel. Lin Yi raised his head in shock."What's that sound?"
"I don't know." Di Xiaoli shook her head blankly.”
Lin Yi's head was full of black lines. He took out the Tian Xuan compass and found the direction according to the indicator lights on it. He quickly spread his legs in an eight shape and moved his two fingers on the wall."We're here. Get ready and follow me!”
"What is it?"
Rumble…
Before Di Xiaoli could finish her sentence, another stone wall appeared in front of the passage, blocking the passage. At the same time, a secret door opened at the side.
Lin Yi didn't even think about it before he grabbed Di Xiaoli's hand and ran into the newly opened secret door.
Immediately after, the place where the two of them had just passed collapsed and fell with a rumble.
Lin Yi tapped on the wall and took a deep breath. I hope Master Tian Yuan is still alive…" After saying that, he found five bricks and quickly pulled them away.
Swoosh…swoosh swoosh…
The sound of a mechanism coming from within the stone wall rang out, and the wall in front of him opened up with a loud bang. The pitiful Grandmaster Tian Yuan was holding onto the wall with one hand while his entire body was suspended in the air. His little disciple was grabbing onto Grandmaster Tian Yuan's ankle tightly as he shouted," Master…don't give up on me. Master…please, don't let go of me…"
The ground of the passageway that the two of them had passed through earlier had also collapsed. There was only a slim chance of survival.
Lin Yi rushed out without hesitation, grabbing Master Tian Yuan's hand with one hand and throwing him and his disciple into the middle passage.
Whoosh--
Master Tian Yuan was so frightened that he was out of breath. He swallowed his saliva and said,"Brother…Brother Lin, what happened? You…Did you know?”
"Did you hear anything just now?”Lin Yi asked.
"I heard you." Grandmaster Tian Yuan's face was pale as he nodded his head vigorously."I…I heard a…a dragon's cry. What…what is going on? Why was there a dragon in this ancient tomb? Could it be a flood dragon?"
