Volume 1 Chapter 275 The Token of Gods and Demons
"That ancient tomb does exist, but it is an abandoned ancient tomb. According to historical records, it has been abandoned for nearly two thousand years."
"Abandoned for two thousand years?" Fang Qingcheng frowned slightly, "Then our trip was in vain?"
"No, we still have a chance." Gu Xiao's eyes were firm, "This ancient tomb was once the tomb of a martial saint. Now we have found the first stone door. Next, we only need to decipher the formation on the stone door. Access to the central area of the tomb."
"Does that formation really exist?" Shen Suhua didn't believe it.
"Let me try and see if I can crack it." After Gu Xiao said this, he closed his eyes and various patterns and textures appeared in his mind, and then they were arranged and combined according to special rules.
Seeing this, Fang Qingcheng and the two men held their breath and concentrated.
After about half a cup of tea, Gu Xiao opened his eyes.
A layer of golden light that was invisible to the naked eye shot out from his pupils, directly destroying the wall, and a rumbling sound suddenly spread.
At the same time, the earth trembled and the mountains shook, and the entire tomb was shaking.
Fang Qingcheng and Shen Suhua were so frightened that they took a few steps back.
Gu Xiao looked away without any fear on his face. He had expected it and was not panicked at all.
Soon, with a loud rumbling sound, the originally flat wall slowly bulged upwards, forming an arch.
"What...what is going on?" Fang Qingcheng's beautiful eyes widened, full of shock.
Gu Xiao looked indifferent and walked straight into the arch.
Fang Qingcheng's two daughters hurriedly followed.
After entering the interior of the arch, a large and empty hall appears in front of you.
There are several dark and cold coffins placed in the center of the hall, and the lid of one of the coffins is opening by itself.
"It seems that someone got there first and entered here before us." Shen Suhua said with a gloomy face.
"Whatever, there's nothing valuable in it anyway, let's get out of this damn place quickly." Yang Fan frowned.
Shen Suhua hesitated and said, "What to do with these coffins?"
Yang Fan shrugged his shoulders and said, "I have no interest in ancient tombs."
"It seems that the corpse of a certain prince or noble is buried here." Gu Xiao looked around and said, "Let's continue along the passage leading to the depths of the tomb. Maybe we can find something valuable."
The three of them walked along the passage and soon came to a fork.
Gu Xiao stopped, his eyes flickered, and said: "Would you choose the left side or the right side?"
"Brother Gu, I want to know what's the difference between these two places?" Yang Fan asked.
"The passage on the left is narrower, and the space inside is also relatively narrow, and can only accommodate one person. The passage on the right is a flat plain, with a very wide view."
When Yang Fan heard this, he immediately made a decision: "Left side."
Fang Qingcheng also agreed: "I listen to you."
"In that case, let's go to the left." Gu Xiao said and took the lead in walking into the passage on the left.
Yang Fan and Shen Suhua followed closely behind.
After the three of them walked about five or six meters away, their eyes suddenly opened up.
This is a huge and vast cemetery with lush vegetation.
"This is... a cemetery!" Shen Suhua was stunned. She never expected that it was actually a cemetery.
This cemetery occupies a large area, stretching for more than ten miles, with no end as far as the eye can see.
Gu Xiaodao: "It seems that that ancient tomb really exists in the world. I just took a look at the layout of these tombs. Each tomb has its own unique meaning."
"Then who is buried here?" Yang Fan asked strangely.
Gu Xiao remained silent. He did not tell Yang Fan the truth. Because he did not know who was buried here.
Shen Suhua gritted her teeth and said, "It doesn't matter who is buried there! Let's search the ancient tomb quickly, maybe we will find something!"
Yang Fan nodded and said: "Yes, since there are mechanisms here, there must be treasures!"
Before he finished speaking, Fang Qingcheng suddenly covered his mouth and retched.
Yang Fan hurriedly supported her and said worriedly: "Qingcheng, are you okay?"
Fang Qingcheng shook his head and said weakly: "It's okay, it's just that my stomach is churning violently."
Gu Xiao apologized and said, "Sorry, I forgot to remind you."
"Are you saying you didn't pay attention just now?" Shen Suhua said in shock.
"Well, I have been practicing during this period and have not paid attention to other things." Gu Xiao nodded and admitted.
Fang Qingcheng's pretty face turned pale and she said, "I don't want to stay here, let's leave quickly."
"Okay." Yang Fan nodded.
"I'll take you back."
Gu Xiao took out a pill and gave it to Shen Suhua.
"Thank you." Shen Suhua thanked her, swallowed the pill, and regained some energy.
When they were about to turn around and leave the cemetery, a group of putrid zombies suddenly swarmed over and surrounded the three of them.
Yang Fan narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "There are indeed a large number of skeleton soldiers ambushed here!"
"You two stay here and don't move. I will deal with them alone." Gu Xiao ordered, and immediately jumped into the zombie army and started a fierce battle.
Although Shen Suhua was injured, she was very strong and held a long sword, so she would not be a drag on Gu Xiao.
On the other side, Yang Fan and Fang Qingcheng worked together to kill many zombie soldiers.
"Miss Qingcheng, how do you feel?" Yang Fan looked at Fang Qingcheng with concern.
"It's okay." Fang Qingcheng shook his head, his face still pale.
At this moment, dense footsteps came, getting closer and closer.
A heavily armed zombie general with a hammer and dozens of zombie soldiers quickly approached.
"Oops! We're surrounded!" Yang Fan secretly screamed something bad, and pulled out the sword from his waist to face the enemy.
Fang Qingcheng gritted her silver teeth, took out a long green sword, and defended back to back with Yang Fan.
The zombie general waved his arms violently and roared, and hundreds of zombie soldiers rushed towards them.
Facing the overwhelming zombie soldiers, Yang Fan and Fang Qingcheng fought hard to stop the zombie intrusion.
"Ding ding ding——"
In an instant, sparks flew everywhere.
Yang Fan and Fang Qingcheng cooperated skillfully and with ease.
Zombie soldiers were constantly killed by them, and their bodies were scattered everywhere.
However, there are too many zombies and it is impossible to stop them.
Unknowingly, Yang Fan and Fang Qingcheng were exhausted.
"It won't work if we continue like this. If we continue to fight like this, we will die from exhaustion sooner or later!" Fang Qingcheng frowned slightly.
"Let's spread out and escape!" Yang Fan suggested.
"Okay!" Fang Qingcheng nodded gently.
The two of them ran wildly in two different directions while the zombie soldiers didn't notice their actions.
However, Yang Fan underestimated the zombies' intelligence. They discovered that Yang Fan and Fang Qingcheng were trying to escape and immediately chased them.
The zombie soldiers were very fast, and Yang Fan and Fang Qingcheng couldn't get rid of them at all.
"Brother Yang, what should we do?" Fang Qingcheng asked anxiously.
