I don’t know when, Chi You Sanqian and the others disappeared from behind me.
Gu Xinlie looked back at me, said nothing, turned around and continued to crawl forward, so I had no choice but to follow.
After climbing for about half an hour, I suddenly discovered something.
This D actually turned a corner from being straight up and down, and the hole D, which was originally only one meter wide and high, became narrower and narrower.
Fortunately, this D was not very tortuous.
When I was thinking wildly, my head suddenly hit Gu Xinlie's feet, and the thick-heeled military boots were pressed against my forehead.
The pain made me grin and I was about to ask him what was wrong, but he pulled them off.
Gas mask, looked back at me and said, "We're here."
When I arrived, I was slightly startled.
Before I could speak, I saw Gu Xinlie suddenly jump out of the entrance.
I didn't think much about it, so I quickly climbed a few steps to the D entrance and jumped down.
I regretted this jump.
I originally thought it was only about one meter high, but when I fell and screamed in pain, I realized that it was at least three meters high.
If I hadn't worn thick clothes this time, my bones would have been broken.
I pulled off the gas mask, took a few deep breaths of oxygen, and then lay on the ground to rest for a while.
When I was almost relieved, I turned around and saw Gu Xinlie staring at the wall carefully, not knowing what he was looking at.
Something.
I raised my neck and whispered: "Brother Gu, nothing will happen to Jiang Qian over there, right?
He didn't follow me, and I didn't see clearly.
How about we go look for him?"
I said to Wang Jiang Qian I still have a good impression of him.
He was a soldier and he is honest and loyal.
At least he won't be naughty.
No matter how he looks at it, he is much better than the paralyzed Gu Xinlie.
"No, there's no need to worry about Jiang Gan's skills.
Let's find the main tomb first."
Gu Xinlie shook his head, turned around and looked down at me.
It was only then that I saw clearly that he was carrying two knives on his waist, one as black as ink and the other as white as snow.
I didn't reply.
The numbness and pain from my body kept my nerves in an extremely excited state.
I could feel that my elbows and knees were seriously damaged just now because I had been crawling in the D for too long.
Moreover, the impact of falling from a high place had put huge pressure on my legs and waist.
I even doubt whether I can stand up now.
"We are not in the Hades Palace now, but in the ear room, but I find it a bit weird here."
Gu Xinlie squatted down and told me, but his fingers kept rubbing the snow-white bone knife on his waist.
"Why is it weird?"
I sat up and turned around to ask him, but there was a heartbreaking pain in my waist, which made me gasp.
"There is actually a coffin in this ear room."
Gu Xinlie said, gesturing to me.
It is indeed strange to have a coffin in the ear room, but I have also heard from Hyakki Night Talk that many people put fake coffins in the ear room to prevent tomb robbers.
I thought Gu Xinlie might be a little nervous, so he didn't take it seriously.
But who knew he said something else.
"Now that coffin has disappeared."
Gu Xinlie stared into my eyes and said word by word.
Hearing this, I couldn't help but take a deep breath, but I still asked angrily if a colleague had groped him.

Gu Xinlie shook his head and said probably not.
The rules for touching coffins include "three don'ts", that is, don't take the body, don't take the coffin, and don't take the tomb.
If you don't take the body, you can't take the body of the owner of the tomb out and sell it.
As the so-called burial is in peace, robbing someone's tomb is a punishment from God.
If you don't let go of the body, you will probably be waiting for death.
Even reincarnation may not happen.
Not taking the coffin means that no matter how good the coffin of the owner of the tomb is, it cannot be touched.
At most, the coffin will be taken away.
This would be much easier to understand if we didn’t use the tomb.
No matter which dynasty or generation the tomb belongs to, whether it is the tomb of the emperor or a commoner, after the tomb is laid, something must be placed in the tomb or in the coffin.
This kind of thing is called a tomb guard.
It can prevent evil spirits from causing trouble, prevent the corpse of the tomb owner from mutating, and prevent the tomb from collapsing.
I slowly stood up and tentatively moved my hands and feet.
Fortunately, it was just soreness and no fracture or sprain, but the soreness alone was enough to make me uncomfortable for a while.
I slowly walked to the spot where Gu Xinlie was looking at the wall just now.
As I got closer, I discovered that the wall was carved with extremely exquisite reliefs.
I turned around and asked Gu Xinlie what the paintings meant.
He ignored me and just raised his head to observe the ear chamber where we were.
I saw him looking up and couldn't help but observe.
This ear room is very high, visually estimated to be seven or eight meters high.
It seems that this is also a large-scale royal tomb.
There are also some reliefs carved everywhere on the walls of the ear chamber.
These reliefs are not similar to those depicting biographies or achievements like those found in other tombs, but only record some bizarre things.
For example, the painting Gu Xinlie observed just now showed a group of naked women kneeling on the ground.
Opposite them lay a huge insect the size of more than a dozen people.
The insect had a human face, but it had a mouth. , it held a bloody thigh in its mouth, with a woman still on its lower body.
This scene will make people's scalp numb after watching it.
How anyone would want to deal with such a bug is simply unimaginable.
At this moment, Gu Xinlie patted me on the shoulder.
As soon as I turned around, he made a silencing gesture towards me.
I nodded and raised my ears nervously.
Suddenly, there was a sound in the ear chamber that was so quiet that it was suffocating.
It was a "click-click-click" sound of chewing something.
I swallowed and clung to the wall, my heartbeat gradually increasing.
Gu Xinlie also pulled out the snow-white bone knife from his waist, and then stared at the side door of the ear chamber with piercing eyes.
Gu Xinlie looked at me, then slowly walked to the side door, and I followed him more cautiously.
The "click-click" sound was still ringing in my ears, extremely clear.
It was a cry similar to that of a night owl, which started slowly and gradually became sharper.
As soon as I walked to the side door, a hand suddenly stretched out from the gap in the door and grabbed my neck fiercely.
This sudden change made me tremble all over, and then my breathing began to change.
Very difficult.
It was an extremely pale palm.
The strange thing was that the palm was only connected to an extremely slender bone.
Just as I was struggling, Gu Xinlie raised his knife and cut off the arm with one knife.
I subconsciously threw that hand away, and then sat on the ground panting violently.

That moment almost made me suffocate.
Just when I was about to tell Gu Xinlie not to move forward yet, I happened to see him scraping the gaps in the stone door with his snow-white bone knife.
"Brother Gu, are you crazy?
What if there is a big rice dumpling behind here?"
I shuddered, stood up quickly, and then pulled out the engineer shovel hanging on my back.
God knows what will happen next.
Suddenly something ran out.
"The thing that grabbed your neck just now should be the Ghost Claw Tree, not the Zongzi.
I'll open the door first and see what's going on."
Gu Xinlie didn't even turn his head, he just kept digging with the snow-white bone knife.
Touching the dirt on the crack of the door.
"What is the Ghost Claw Tree?"
I was slightly stunned.
Although there are many strange things in the world, I have never heard of such a tree in the world.
It was not even mentioned in the Night Talk of the Hundred Demons.
Pass.
Gu Xinlie put the knife back into its sheath, and then slowly explained to me.
It turns out that the ghost claw tree was a plant enshrined to the Emperor of Zhou from the Western Regions during the Zhou Dynasty.
This plant is very strange.
It does not need watering, sunlight, or even pruning of its branches and leaves.
This plant is easy to feed because it only eats people.
Yes, dead or alive.
The Ghost Claw Tree can only remember the scent of three people in its lifetime.
Except for these three people, anyone or anything that comes close to it will be entangled by it and killed.
But that’s not the most amazing thing about this tree.
The most amazing thing about this tree is that what you eat grows.
Emperor Zhou killed seven hundred slaves and placed their heads under the roots of the Ghost Claw Tree.
Its tree roots suddenly stretched out from the ground, and then penetrated into the heads one by one, and did not stop until the heads turned into empty shells one by one.
A year later, the branches of the ghost claw tree were covered with human heads.
Moreover, every head could talk and eat, which frightened Emperor Zhou so much that he quickly burned the tree.
This is the earliest record about the Ghost Claw Tree.
I glanced at the pale palms on the ground and the half of the forearm bones connected behind them.
Thinking of the legend of the ghost claw tree, my scalp felt numb.
At this time, Gu Xinlie had gradually pushed the stone door open.
There was a creaking sound.
When the stone door was fully opened and I saw what was at the door, I felt that my legs began to tremble, and I even stopped breathing.
Rhythm Behind the door stood a strange ancient tree about three meters high.
The tree body was blood red, and the branches were actually covered with arms one after another, and the palms were extremely pale.
Without saying a word, Gu Xinlie held the snow-white bone knife in his hand and rushed in.
I don’t know what grudge Gu Xinlie has against this ghost claw tree, but he just rushed forward risking his life.
The ghost claw tree was not a dead thing without intelligence.
It freed up its branches with palms and pulled them towards Gu Xinlie.
There were blood-red nails on the palms.
I was afraid that they were poisonous, so I quickly told Gu Xinlie to be careful, and I rolled like a lazy ass to the back of the stone gate.
At this time, I can't help at all.

Even if I get started, I will be a burden.
It's better to protect myself first.
There was a sound of "Puff, Puff, Puff" inside.
I didn't know whether it was the ghost claw tree that hurt Gu Xinlie, or whether Gu Xinlie killed the ghost claw tree.
I was about to turn my head and look, but suddenly I stared at the wall and shouted with a trembling voice: "Why is there an extra shadow?"
