Chapter 51 Zhang Qiling 50
Because they had ingested the blood of Fatty Wang, Wu Xie, and A Ning, the mechanism above was activated.
Several holes opened up overhead, and dozens of arrows shot down from above.
"Danger!!" Wu Xie shouted to Fatty Wang.
The four quickly dodged using their movement techniques, drawing their daggers in defense.
Xie Yuchen: "Don't just stand there like an idiot, find the mechanism!!"
"Oh, oh, okay." Wu Xie nodded hurriedly and worked with Chen Wenjin to find the mechanism to open the door.
After dodging one wave, the opening above closed, and the arrows stopped firing.
Zhang Qiling flew onto the stone coffin, intending to cut the insects in half.
"Please wait a moment, sir."
Zhang Qiling stopped and turned to look at Qing Yue.
"Qingqing?"
Qingyue stared upwards, at a human face at the center, surrounded by concentric circles of sealed stone caves. The fat man's blood had opened several of these caves, and the insects had been covering the stone coffin.
The slightest weight would trigger the mechanism, and the fact that Chen Wenjin couldn't find a way to open the door could only mean that the solution lay in the stone coffin.
If it weren't for Chen Wenjin and A Ning being there, she would have blown up the empty room.
"This should be a weight mechanism. To open the door, enough weight needs to be placed on the stone coffin and all the stone holes on it need to be opened before the door can be activated."
"I'll handle this; you guys be careful."
Zhang Qiling sheathed his dagger, lightly touched the ground with his foot, and leaped into the center of the stone coffin, where the insects could not suck the blood from his feet.
The stone caves above were all opened; this time, it wasn't an arrow, but a pheasant's neck.
Pheasants in the air opened their necks and beaks and fell, biting as many as they could.
Qingyue and her group were killing each other in a chaotic frenzy.
At that moment, the stone coffin made a huge noise, the stone door opened, and the pheasants that hadn't died yet ran away.
"The door is open."
Wu Xie looked inside the gate and complained, "Why are there steps again? I'm getting a little scared."
As soon as the door opened, Chen Wenjin quickly stepped up the stairs and ran up.
Wu Xie panicked when he saw this and hurriedly chased after them, with Fatty Wang and Aning following behind.
"Let's go."
Zhang Qiling jumped off the stone coffin and came to Qingyue's side.
Black Glasses walked over to them and said, "Thanks to Sister Qing's little magic, otherwise the blind man's blood would have been sucked away by these bugs. How long would it have taken to replenish it!"
"Thank you." Xie Yuchen thanked Qing Yue again, having benefited from the black-eyed man's kindness.
"You're welcome."
Qingyue's eyes were filled with joy, after all, you will be my sister-in-law in the future!
Before she could say it aloud, the other three understood what she meant.
Zhang Qiling's lips curled up; the blind man's happiness had arrived, and Xie Yuchen's suffering would finally come to an end.
They went up the steps.
At the top of the steps was a throne, upon which sat an old woman wearing a crown and magnificent robes.
Fatty Wang: "Could this be...?"
Wu Xie: "The only one qualified to sit on the throne is probably the Queen Mother of the West herself!"
Fatty Wang kicked the throne.
"The Queen Mother of the West is so well-preserved. What kind of technology could allow her to sit here for thousands of years without decaying?"
Looking at the skin, apart from being a bit wrinkled, there was no rot, and it even had makeup on it.
Chen Wenjin shook her head: "No, this is not the Queen Mother of the West."
As soon as she spoke, Fatty Wang glanced around and noticed that the color of her neck and face was a little off.
"His complexion is off; it looks like he's wearing a mask."
Qingyue was somewhat disgusted. The skin was all wrinkled and matted together, and she didn't know how long the person had been dead. Yet they could still observe the clues up close. They truly deserved to be called tomb raiders.
The two of them stood a little far apart, feeling somewhat unlucky.
Xie Yuchen stood next to Qing Yue, and he felt disgusted. Regardless of whether she was the Queen Mother of the West or not, she was still a dead person. No matter how well a corpse is preserved, it will still have a smell.
Chen Wenjin: "The Queen Mother of the West found a substitute; she herself definitely went somewhere else."
Zhang Qiling's flashlight shone on the wall behind the throne.
"message."
Fatty Wang looked over and asked, "Whose message is this?"
Chen Wenjin: "The message from Xuan Nu to the Queen Mother of the West".
Wu Xie looked around thoughtfully and said, "The person in the stone coffin in that pool should be Xuan Nu."
The beam of the flashlight from the black-eyed man shone on the mechanism above his head.
"Look at the face above her head, that face is almost like the Mysterious Woman. It looked so terrifying on the Water Pool website, but now it looks much gentler."
Fatty Wang: "This Xuan Nu is saving her gentlest side for the Queen Mother of the West!"
Qingyue didn't want to complain.
She couldn't see at all what was so gentle about that face...
Sure enough, there is a specialization in the art industry.
The others, however, seemed to agree.
Qingyue squinted and looked closely, but found it frightening and couldn't see any gentle smile on its face.
Forget it.
She wasn't a tomb raider, she destroyed tombs. There's no need to delve into that; let them explain it however they want, just treat it as a story.
Fatty Wang discovered a mechanism in front of the throne.
Believing that Xuan Nu would not harm the Queen Mother of the West, Wu Xie gritted his teeth and stepped down.
A loud noise erupted, and flashlight beams shone everywhere.
The three people, Qingyue and her companions, who were standing at the very edge, glanced down.
"All the insects on the stone coffin have left."
Xie Yuchen: "The reason why Xuan Nu placed the mechanism directly in front of the throne was to ensure that the Queen Mother of the West could safely cross the reservoir."
Chen Wenjin kept muttering as she searched for her target: "There's no time left, I have no time left."
Qingyue glanced at her out of the corner of her eye.
Letting this woman choose the area where she died was already an act of kindness on her part.
She wouldn't let any of those who took the Corpse-Eating Pills go, especially one who had turned into a monster in the Golmud Sanatorium; she couldn't let her run away.
If only I had gone with Xiao Guan back then, I wouldn't have had to make a special trip later.
They followed Chen Wenjin all the way to the throne.
I never expected there to be such a large meteorite here.
When the time comes, if the power of the meteorite is drained and thrown to the Heavenly Dao here, some of His power will return, which will better maintain this small world and greatly reduce the probability of problems.
Chen Wenjin's smile had already spread across his face.
"This is the Queen Mother of the West's ultimate secret, and this is my final destination."
Wu Xie: "Aunt Wenjin, is your final destination the stone ceiling of the Queen Mother of the West's Palace?"
Chen Wenjin: "This is no ordinary stone; it is a celestial stone."
"What celestial stone? It's just an ordinary meteorite!" Fatty Wang said, then realized something was wrong: "Oh no, this is huge! Just think about it, such a big rock fell from the sky and crashed down. This basin was probably created by it."
Black Glasses: "These aren't meteorites, they're meteorite jade."
Wu Xie: "I've only read a little bit about meteorite jade in ancient books. I never imagined there would be such a large piece in the Queen Mother of the West's palace."
"What I'm looking for must be inside the meteorite."
Chen Wenjin was about to jump into the hole when Wu Xie stopped her.
"Oh, are you going in?"
