"Impossible! I've seen Third Uncle when I was young. How could he be untied?”
Wu Xie said in disbelief.
The difference was that Xie Yuhua recalled all the things Third Uncle Wu had done to her and realized that something was wrong.
He stared at Third Uncle Wu and said indifferently,"You are him."”
With multiple testimonies, Third Uncle Wu knew that he could no longer hide it, so he could only nod helplessly and admit it.
"Wenjin is right, I am indeed untied.”
"Sometimes, I even forget that I have this name.”
Third Uncle Wu mocked himself.
But soon, his expression turned serious again. He said to Wu Xie,"Although I'm not Wu Sanxing, I've always treated you as my eldest nephew all these years. This matter can't be fake.”
Wu Xie stood rooted to the ground, dumbstruck.
Now, he finally understood that the last words he had seen at the shipwreck tomb were left behind by the real Third Uncle.
He was the one at fault. He had read the last words in the wrong order.
The reversal of events.
For a moment, everyone did not know how to deal with it. The few people involved fell into a depressed mood.
At this moment, Jiang Chen's eyes were fixed on a person in Third Uncle Wu's group.
He, who was proficient in disguise, could see some clues.
Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes and thought, This old fox sure knows how to play.”
He was still hiding his identity here.
Other than the real Third Uncle Wu, he couldn't think of a second person.
Forget it…
I'm too lazy to listen to them continue chatting. I have to hurry and sign in.
With that in mind, Jiang Chen took advantage of the crowd's lack of attention.
He quickly took out a detonator from the bag on the ground. It was one of the detonators in Third Uncle Wu's team.
"Jiang Chen, what are you trying to do?" Ah Ning asked in confusion.”
"Instead of listening to them talk about their daily life, I might as well look for the location of the Western Mother Empress Palace.”
Jiang Chen explained.
There were four passages leading to different places in the cave.
The fastest way to find out the exact location of the Western Mother Palace was to create a sound and obtain the corresponding routes through the sound transmission.
After explaining, he lit the detonator and threw it into one of the passages when the others were not paying attention.
Boom!
A few seconds later, a deafening explosion sounded.
Countless pieces of soil were thrown out by the impact of the explosion and fell to the ground.
The entire space shook violently as if there was an earthquake.
At the same time.
Jiang Chen already had a complete route in his mind. He knew exactly what to do next.
"Who is it? Who threw the detonator!"
Someone exclaimed.
The sudden explosion caused their alarm clock to go haywire, and they did not react for a long time.
After they reacted.
Jiang Chen and Ah Ning had long since disappeared from the cave.
……
At this moment.
Jiang Chen followed the route he had memorized and arrived at a pond very quickly.
In front of the pond, Jiang Chen could see a statue of a human-faced bird.
In this way, he was certain.
Behind the statue was the Western Mother Palace, the burial chamber of the female general Mystic Fairy.
Jiang Chen suddenly stopped.
Ah Ning, who was following closely behind, was not paying attention and did not stop and bumped into his back.
"What's wrong?" Ning asked in confusion.”
"The last place is after the palace," Jiang Chen said calmly.”
"I can tell you honestly that the Western Mother Empress Palace doesn't have what you're looking for. Also, if something happens to you in that place ahead, even I might not be able to protect you.”
The blood-sucking worms and the traps were still fine. What he was most worried about was the thousand-year-old Snake Queen that might have turned into a flood dragon.
He left the choice to Ah Ning." It's up to you whether you want to enter or not. I'll give you one minute to consider."”
Ah Ning fell silent, as if he was thinking.
In just ten seconds, she said,"I have a question for you."
"You ask."
"Actually…did you already know that I wouldn't be able to leave Tamutuo alive?”
Ah Ning recalled what Jiang Chen had said when they were attacked by the river and had a rough idea of what was going on.
Jiang Chen's expression was calm.
He didn't expect Ah Ning to notice this.
Since that was the case.
He felt that there was no need to hide anymore.
"You're right, but you're only half right."”
"What do you mean?" asked Ah Ning.
"Actually, you shouldn't have survived the river, but I saved you."”
By the river…
So it was that time.
Ah Ning looked a little sad, but she quickly became optimistic and said,""Of course, I have to go on. If I'm lucky, I'll get out alive. If I'm unlucky, it doesn't matter.”
Jiang Chen nodded expressionlessly.
" Then go on," he said." I'm trying to fight against fate. I'll do my best to protect you."”
Ning took off the ten-copper bracelet in his hand.
"I owe you 200,000 dollars. Use this to pay for it first. What if I can't get out?"”
If seven pieces were ten copper coins, the total value would not be just this.
"No need," Jiang Chen refused."I'm confident in myself."”
Since he had said this, Ah Ning naturally did not say anything more.
After that, he bypassed the human-faced bird statue and continued forward.
In just a few minutes.
They stepped into an exquisitely constructed tomb.
Jiang Chen triggered a mechanism.
In an instant, the fire platforms around the tomb lit up, illuminating the entire space.
Rumble!
Then, the stone door at the entrance slowly fell, completely blocking their escape route.
There was a ring-shaped building made of many stone pillars in the tomb. At the center of the building was a coffin.
The coffin was covered with long and thin blood-sucking bugs.
There were also six snake-shaped copper pillars surrounding it.
A large part of the center of the tomb was covered in water that was more than ten centimeters thick.
The innermost part was a closed door.
As long as he opened the door, he would be able to reach the end of the Western Mother Palace and complete the check-in.
Furthermore, he would head into the Meteorite Jade to investigate!
"Don't move!"
Just as Ah Ning was about to walk forward and explore the traps, he was stopped by Jiang Chen.
"What's wrong?" she asked without answering.
Jiang Chen crouched down and used his slender fingers to quickly pick up a wriggling bloodworm from the water.
" The mechanism of the tomb is in the coffin," he explained." After the bloodworms suck blood, they will increase in weight and activate the mechanism.”
"If we want to open that door, we have to get rid of the bloodworms on the coffin.”
Ah Ning understood.
However, looking at the densely packed and squirming bloodworms on the coffin, he was shocked.
She wasn't afraid of giant snakes, but when faced with these things, her scalp went numb.
"This time, I'll have to let out some blood."
Jiang Chen said faintly.
Then, he used the small divine blade to cut his palm and sprinkled a stream of blood on the coffin.
He did not believe it.
These disgusting worms dared to suck his blood!
