Chapter 580: Strange Female Corpse, Soul Imprisonment
"Ok?"
"are you OK?"
"I'm fine, thank you for your concern."
Ye Bai walked quickly, observing the tomb as he walked.
He didn't notice that there was an emerald jade ring in the corner of the backpack.
"You seem to be afraid of these female corpses?"
Ye Bai looked at Yang Mi in his arms. Her cheeks were flushed and her breathing was weak. She seemed to be suffering from some kind of torture.
"Their souls are trapped here and cannot be reincarnated." Yang Mi said with difficulty.
Ye Bai swung the hammer in his hand, knocking down one body after another without stopping.
He was agile and his movements were clean and neat. He rushed to the mountainside without any obstruction, and the surrounding environment suddenly opened up.
"Fuck! I thought it was a cemetery, but it turned out to be a mausoleum!"
"Oh my god, there are so many coffins."
"The host is preparing to rob a tomb..."
In an instant, many bizarre speculations appeared in the comments of the live broadcast room, but none of them escaped the unanimous answer - tomb robbery!
Ye Bai snorted coldly, put the hammer into his sleeve, and his eyes swept across the tomb, finally landing on the stone tablet in front of him.
Ye Bai walked over.
The characters on the stone tablet are in seal script, the ink is not dry yet, and it exudes a sense of vicissitudes and antiquity, as if it is very old.
After reading this, the corners of his mouth twitched.
"I wonder if the tomb owner is too bored?"
“It sounds like it’s pretty impressive.”
Ye Bai touched his nose and walked into the cemetery. He came across many tombs along the way, but they were all empty, with only a few remains and burial objects.
"This kind of damn place is worse than a dead pit!"
Ye Bai muttered to himself as he walked through several winding and dark corridors and came to an empty house.
The room was very simple, with tightly closed coffins on both sides and a huge water tank in the middle, filled with dark and sticky liquid, like some disgusting and rotten liquid.
Wisps of white smoke floated in the liquid.
The white smoke gathered into a human outline, gradually solidifying and transforming into a human form, an elderly woman wearing a luxurious palace dress.
She had a pretty face. Although she was in the state of a corpse, she was still beautiful. There was grace and elegance between her eyebrows, and her temperament was dignified and elegant.
"You are..." Ye Bai interrupted her, "Is your last name Zhao?"
The old woman nodded, slowly raised her hand, pointed at Ye Bai, and moved her lips: "You are..."
Ye Bai quickly explained: "Your son's name is Zhao Chuan. He made a deal with me and asked me to help resurrect you."
The old woman's pupils suddenly constricted.
"Your son is dead?" Her voice trembled with sorrow and despair.
"Yeah." Ye Bai sighed, "He gave his life to revive you."
Tears rolled down the old woman's face, and her cloudy eyes were filled with pain and resentment.
She gritted her teeth and said nothing.
After a long pause, she asked hoarsely, "How long has he been dead?"
"Five years." Ye Bai said, "Back then, I saved your son, but he exchanged his life for a priceless treasure, and we haven't been in touch since."
"So... it was you who saved me..." the old woman murmured.
She raised her eyes and looked at Ye Bai, her eyes complex and gentle.
Ye Bai stood there quietly without urging anyone.
"Thank you..." the old woman said.
Ye Bai smiled: "You're welcome, it's just a small favor."
"Are you confused as to why I can still speak even though I'm clearly dead?" the old woman asked.
Ye Bai shook his head.
"Because this place is an ancient tomb. There is a formation in the tomb that can isolate the Yin energy."
"Your blood can break the seal of the tomb."
The old woman whispered.
"The fact that you can bring me out of the coffin is enough to prove your ability... As for the things in these coffins, they don't belong to me."
"I don't need your gift, please let me go..."
The old woman's tone was pleading.
Ye Bai pondered for a moment and said, "Okay."
He walked to the wall and knocked on it according to the remaining memory in his mind, looking for the mechanism.
The old woman waited quietly, her eyes kind and peaceful.
Boom! Boom, boom, boom!
Ye Bai knocked for a long time and suddenly froze.
He saw a line of words protruding on the wall: [Find the answers you want yourself].
Ye Bai frowned.
This was a riddle that seemed to suggest that he should go and look inside a tomb.
Ye Bai hesitated for a few seconds, and finally decided to continue exploring.
There was no coffin in this tomb chamber. Instead, various handicrafts were piled up like a small hill. There was nothing special about them. The only thing that caught Ye Bai's attention was the copper coins placed on a row of shelves.
The copper coins are intricately shaped and delicate, with a total of seven pieces placed separately.
There was a talisman paper stuck on each copper coin, emitting a strange red glow.
"Copper coin swords, seven copper coin swords..." Ye Bai whispered, "No wonder Zhao Chuan gave me a jade pendant."
He picked up a copper coin sword, weighed it for a moment, and threw it away.
Ye Bai took out another jade pendant.
Throw away the same.
……
He discarded six copper coin swords and picked up the last one.
The jade pendant is green in color, with dragon patterns carved on the surface. It feels warm and emits a faint fragrance.
"This thing..." Ye Bai narrowed his eyes.
The totem on this jade pendant is almost the same as the one on his chest.
He examined them carefully and finally discovered the difference between them.
The dragon pattern on the green jade pendant is rather blurred, as if eroded by time, while the golden jade pendant that sparkles with dazzling golden light is particularly eye-catching.
This jade pendant is more advanced!
"No wonder Zhao Chuan was willing to give me a priceless gift. It turns out..."
Ye Bai's eyes flickered slightly, "This guy had expected this day to come."
There are nine lifelike dragons carved on the jade pendant, each of which is several meters long, with a coiled tail and a ferociously roaring dragon head.
He put the jade pendant into the storage space and became more wary of it.
Ye Bai walked out the door and came to another tomb.
There are quite a few coffins here, and in each coffin, there is a female corpse lying or crouching, including the elderly, middle-aged, and even children, their postures twisted and weird.
Ye Bai stared at the corpses in the coffin for a while, and after confirming that they had turned into dried corpses, he moved them out of the coffin and buried them on the ground.
He went around to the other side and found another door.
"Open it." Ye Bai ordered the puppy.
The little puppy immediately stepped forward and pulled the chain off.
squeak-
The heavy iron door slowly opened.
Inside the door is a large library with a huge sarcophagus on display.
The surface of the sarcophagus is covered with blue-gray stone bricks. The entire coffin is round and the bottom is inlaid with various gems.
The sarcophagus was empty, with no one in sight.
"Huh?" Ye Bai was surprised, "There's no one here."
"This place is not for ordinary people to set foot in." The system prompts, "Host, you can leave first."
"I know there is a formation here..." Ye Bai raised his eyebrows.
The layout here is very similar to the Feng Shui pattern commonly used by metaphysical scholars.
"Anyway, now that we're here, we have to take a look at the situation."
Ye Bai stepped into the library and walked to the sarcophagus.
Inside the sarcophagus was a thin leather mattress.
"...What is this?" Ye Bai reached out and touched the mattress.
hum!
The moment the palm touched the mattress, the mossy patterns on the mattress suddenly lit up.
Ye Bai's pupils shrank slightly.
