Chapter 116 The reason for the ancient tomb
Holding the dozen storage rings in his hand, Lin Hao was about to scan them for anything valuable, but suddenly there was a sound of dense footsteps.
Apparently, the fighting here just now attracted the attention of some adventurers nearby.
At that moment, Lin Hao also put the storage rings into his shirt pocket, and put the Fire Scale Tiger and the others into the system pet space.
As for the four parrots who originally served as shared vision, they are now replaced by kung fu flies.
All along, he was Lin Hao in Tianyan Academy, and the Four Treasures were inseparable from him every day. As long as he looked at it, he would undoubtedly recognize it at once.
Therefore, using the identity of ‘Jing Ke’ now, there is no need for the Four Treasures to appear again.
Kung Fu Fly lay on Lin Hao's shoulder with an indifferent expression, looking cool.
That look seemed to say, it’s finally my turn to play!
After a while, three figures cautiously emerged from the grass.
"So many corpses!"
When they saw dozens of corpses lying on the ground, the three people suddenly gasped with horror on their faces.
With the help of the kung fu fly's compound eyesight, Lin Hao could also clearly see the appearance of those people.
Two men and one woman.
They are all young people, and they are all wearing uniforms of the university.
However, he is not a student of Tianyan Academy.
The uniform badges they wear are a totem of a long sword thrust into the sky.
Under the badge totem, there are four golden fonts.
Jianyun Academy.
Lin Hao was not surprised when he saw this.
Jianyun Academy is located in the Xingyu Empire, just across the river from the Great Yan Dynasty.
Although they are neighboring countries, the relationship between the two countries has not been friendly in recent years, with frequent frictions and frequent wars.
However, the Xingyu Empire is an imperial force and has relatively strong military power.
The Dayan Dynasty has always been on the defensive, resisting enemy attacks.
And Jianyun Academy is not far from the Warcraft Mountains. If these three people learn about the ancient tomb, they will definitely arrive here within ten days.
"Were all these people killed by that mysterious man?"
The short-haired woman among them stared at the corpse on the ground with her beautiful eyes widened.
Then she secretly glanced at Lin Hao and whispered with surprise.
The handsome young man next to him had a tense expression. After looking at Lin Hao curiously for a while, he denied in a low voice:
"It shouldn't be possible. Although he was dressed mysteriously, his clothes were neat and his face was calm. There seemed to be no sign that the fight had just ended."
The other burly young man nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, look at the body with half of its head bitten off. It's obviously a bite from a monster."
Hearing this, the short-haired woman looked in the direction he pointed.
But he saw that half of the bald head had been bitten off, and the blood and brain matter were mixed together, making it extremely bloody.
Seeing such an exciting scene, the fright in the short-haired woman's beautiful eyes became even more intense.
But soon, she regained her composure and discovered that the head of the corpse was indeed the bite mark of a large beast.
On the other hand, Lin Hao was alone, with only a small white monster beside him.
At this time, Xiaobai put on his hat again, and his eyes no longer showed their previous aura, and deliberately became dull.
It seems that it has experienced the sinister scene just now, and it has learned to disguise itself.
Lin Hao was aware of this detail change, and couldn't help but feel secretly pleased.
Immediately, he ignored the three students from Jianyun Academy and silently turned around and left.
Regarding Lin Hao's departure, how could the short-haired woman and others dare to ask this seemingly strange and mysterious person.
It wasn't until Lin Hao disappeared from sight that the three of them breathed a sigh of relief.
The burly young man looked at the corpses on the ground and grinned suddenly, with a look of greed that could not be concealed in his eyes.
I saw him running towards the corpses and starting to search for them.
However, the result was a huge disappointment to him.
"What a waste of effort, you don't even have anything valuable!"
The burly young man cursed rather disappointedly.
"Could it be that that guy just got in first?"
Thinking of this, the burly young man frowned.
The expression on his face was both unhappy and unwilling.
"Chen Wu, forget it, it's inhumane to make such a dead man's money."
The handsome young man shook his head and admonished: "Remember, the purpose of our trip is the ancient tomb."
When he heard about the ancient tomb, the burly young man named Chen Wu's eyes suddenly lit up, and then he remembered the business.
"That's right."
Chen Wu nodded solemnly, then looked at the short-haired woman next to him, and said excitedly: "Fang Xiaoke, if this ancient tomb in the Warcraft Mountains is really the burial place of your Fang family's ancestors, we will be prosperous."
Seeing Chen Wu's greedy and excited expression, Fang Xiaoke sighed softly in his heart.
I don’t know if I did the right thing this time by telling my two cousins about the ancient tomb.
Hundreds of years ago, the Fang family could be said to be a famous first-class family in the Xingyu Empire.
Just because a strong man from the holy realm was born, he received great courtesy from the royal family and enjoyed endless resources.
However, later on, the ancestor failed to attack the realm, and his lifespan was about to be exhausted. He died in the Warcraft Mountains and was buried in the ancient tomb that had been built long ago.
At the beginning, the Fang family was very wealthy and did not think much about the resources stored in the ancient tomb, intending to save them for future emergencies.
Unexpectedly, after the death of my ancestor, all kinds of enemies came to the door one after another.
Since then, the Fang family has completely declined, and even the original treasure map of the ancient tomb was lost during the escape.
But now, she is the only one left in the direct lineage of the Fang family, a woman from a single lineage.
A while ago, I heard that someone found the ruins of an ancient tomb in the Warcraft Mountains. Fang Xiaoke suddenly remembered the ancient tombs of his ancestors that his father had once said.
But she only has the cultivation level of a fourth-level mage, and it would undoubtedly be a disaster for her to venture into the Warcraft Mountains alone.
Therefore, I informed my two cousins with a foreign surname about the Fang family's ancient tomb, hoping that they could assist in going there.
"Xiao Ke, even if the rune seal is opened in the ancient tomb, will outsiders still be unable to enter the core area of the tomb?"
The handsome young man turned his eyes to Fang Xiaoke and couldn't help but ask.
Fang Xiaoke nodded and said, "Well, according to the genealogy records, no one without our Fang bloodline can enter the real core secret room of the ancient tomb."
"It seems that blood essence needs to be dripped on the runes for the formation to activate the stone door of the secret room."
Hearing this, the handsome young man and Chen Wu both fell silent.
Although the two of them have foreign surnames, strictly speaking, they have more or less the Fang family bloodline from their mother's ancestors.
But they were also unable to determine how to determine the rune array set up in the core chamber in the ancient tomb.
Otherwise, they would not have agreed to assist Fang Xiaoke, a burden. Instead, they would have come here privately to seize all the treasures in Fang's ancient tomb.
Suddenly, the handsome young man and Chen Wu looked at each other secretly, and both nodded in agreement.
The current plan is to take Fang Xiaoke to the ancient tomb first, and then discuss the allocation of resources.
Unexpectedly, a strange little fly suddenly buzzed away from here.
This fly is undoubtedly a Kung Fu fly.
