Seven Gods Guardian: Gun King Mission

Chapter 150 The Mysterious Tomb

When I slowly walked to the tightly closed door, I took a deep breath, reached out and gently pushed it open. However, to my surprise, the person who should have appeared before my eyes disappeared without a trace.

I couldn't help but frown and shouted suspiciously, "Li Ling, where are you? I'm here to find you."

A moment later, a slightly trembling voice was heard from not far away: "Lord Zhan Huang, I'm here! What happened outside? Those several deafening explosions just now scared me a lot."

As the words fell, Li Ling walked out from behind a thick pillar with a look of horror on her face. Her body was still trembling slightly, and it was obvious that she had not fully recovered from the shock just now.

Seeing her frightened look, I thought she must have been frightened by the huge explosion caused by the gas bomb I just released, so she hurriedly hid behind a pillar in the room for shelter.

Only after confirming that it was me did she walk out cautiously.

I looked at her slightly pale face and whispered to her, "Don't be afraid. I deliberately caused those explosions. Now, all the bandits in this mountain stronghold have been completely eradicated by me. This place is very safe and there will be no danger anymore."

After hearing what I said, Li Ling breathed a sigh of relief, but then asked nervously, "So... what about the big boss? I heard he's very powerful."

Speaking of this great leader, a wave of emotion welled up in my heart, and I couldn't help but sigh deeply. Then I slowly said, "This great leader is the Blood Knife King, who was once famous in the martial arts world. Unfortunately, he later went astray and became a bandit. In the end, I had to personally kill him. Speaking of which, he is indeed a formidable and powerful opponent!"

"He is actually the famous Blood Knife King? This is really beyond my expectation. He has never mentioned his true identity to me. I really didn't expect that this notorious bandit leader would be him." After learning the true identity of the boss, Li Ling couldn't help but be shocked, her face full of astonishment.

"Well, perhaps he suffered some severe blow that caused him to be reduced to his current state. But speaking of which, I accidentally found a mysterious key on him a while ago. I wonder if you know what door this key can open?"

When he thought of the key he had found on the Blood Knife King before, he couldn't wait to ask Li Ling.

Hearing the topic of the key, Li Ling seemed to suddenly recall something important and quickly responded, "I've seen this key before. He told me personally that it was the key to his private treasury, and only he could enter and exit freely. Anyone else who wanted to enter the treasury had to obtain his permission first."

"Treasure house? Do you know where the treasure house is? I believe it must contain many priceless treasures." After hearing the word treasure house, I hurriedly asked.

"I know, but I only know the approximate location. As for the exact place, I don't know." Li Ling thought about it again and replied.

"It's okay, it's enough to know the general idea. Then take me there. There are no bandits outside now, and it's very safe." He said to himself.

"Well, let's go." Li Ling said with a smile.

We slowly left the house. I followed Li Ling cautiously, her steps light and graceful, as if she were quite familiar with the area. Soon, she led me to a very strange place.

This place looks like a backyard garden, but it is very different from ordinary gardens. Looking up, you can see rolling hills, gurgling water, dotted with exotic flowers and plants, and rugged rocks, forming a beautiful picture that is refreshing and refreshing.

"I never expected that there was such a beautiful scenery hidden here. It is so pleasing to the eyes! It seems that these bandits should not be underestimated." I stared at the picturesque scenery in front of me and couldn't help but admire it.

Hearing my praise, Li Ling smiled slightly and said softly, "It was actually me who suggested building this courtyard for the Blood Knife King. This place can relax the body and mind, so he often comes here to rest and recuperate to relax his tense nerves."

I couldn't help but look at her in surprise, then nodded in response, "Well, if that's the case, you're indeed quite remarkable. You actually know how to create such a beautiful environment. That's quite impressive."

Li Ling sighed softly and said helplessly: "If I hadn't thought of some ways and used some tricks to hang out with that group of bandits, I would have been destroyed by them long ago. Fortunately, only the leaders came, and the others were not qualified to come at all." Li Ling thought about her previous life. Fortunately, she was smart, otherwise she would have become who knows what she would have become.

"You are quite smart. It is not easy to survive in that dangerous and notorious bandit's den! By the way, haven't we reached our destination yet? Could it be in this mysterious garden?" I asked Li Ling beside me while looking around curiously.

"That's not the case. We have to go through this garden first. The Blood Knife King said that his most important treasure is hidden inside the garden. It is the safest and most reliable place." Li Ling responded.

As we were talking, we left the garden at a brisk pace. Soon, we saw a place that looked like a tomb.

There was only a tombstone standing there alone, with a few incense sticks in front of the tombstone, but they had obviously burned out long ago. There was also a large grave behind it, and it seemed that someone was buried here.

I walked forward and looked at the tombstone carefully. On it were engraved the words "Tomb of my beloved wife Liu".

Seeing this, I couldn't help but feel surprised: "I didn't expect that the Blood Knife King actually has a wife! I just don't know why his wife passed away?" I couldn't help but talk to myself, full of suspicion.

Li Ling, standing by, frowned slightly. After a moment's thought, she spoke, "I know nothing about this matter either. The Blood Knife King has always been very tight-lipped and never mentioned anything about his wife to me. If it weren't for this chance encounter today, I'm afraid I would never have set foot here in my lifetime."

Let's put this question aside for now! At this moment, I had no interest in this mysterious tomb, so I turned to Li Ling beside me and asked, "Hey, Li Ling, do you know where his treasure trove is hidden?"

Faced with this sudden inquiry, Li Ling hesitated for a moment before responding, "Ah, I'm actually not quite sure. I only know that he once mentioned that the most important things would be placed in the back of the back garden, but as for where exactly this so-called 'back' refers to, I really have no idea."

Hearing this, I couldn't help but feel helpless, but there was no other way. I had to start searching around the tomb carefully, hoping to find some clues.

However, after a lot of hard searching, he still couldn't find any clues of practical value. In desperation, he had to return to the side of the tomb again, staring at the tombstone, secretly wondering where the entrance was hidden.

At this moment, a detail so subtle that it was almost imperceptible caught his attention - there seemed to be an extremely narrow gap between the bottom of the tombstone and the ground.
