Previously, when they didn't understand the situation, the three of them thought that Lady Meng and the big bird were two different birds. Now, after seeing the statue on the altar, they finally realized that they were from the same family, a male and a female that were like mandarin ducks.

Big Beard came over and said curiously, "Then this bird must be male. No wonder it's so fierce!"

Big Beard blurted out a sigh. He did not seem to feel that what he said was ambiguous. He was just being serious.

"Cough, cough!"

Lin Yiyuan coughed dryly, concealing the awkwardness in his heart, and said: "Perhaps so! "According to what you can see now, these two Old Lady Meng should be the guardians of the mausoleum. They feed on the soul, and this suits the name 'Old Lady Meng' perfectly."

It was well-known that Grandma Meng was a cadre of the Yin Division. For thousands of years, she had guarded her position, standing at the end of the bridge to send her soul away. The place where she stood was the starting and ending point of her life, and as long as she drank her soup, she would forget her past life.

The demise of a memory and the demise of a soul were not much different, as they meant that a person had completely disappeared from this world.

With regards to Lin Yiyuan's conjecture, both Big Beard and Long Xiaowei felt that it made sense and could not help but nod their heads in agreement.

"In my opinion, if there is an exit under this altar, then we always follow the same pattern when filming the filming. It's definitely not wrong."

As the bearded man spoke, he had already arrived in front of the altar, pondering about how to break it open.

"If there's a secret passage down there, there must be a trap down there. Look around first."

Actually, Lin Yiyuan's idea was the same as the bearded man's. He thought that they might be hiding under the altar, because the other places were too flat and there was nothing special about them.

The altar was carved from a piece of white marble. There were also a large number of rubies embedded around it, making it look extremely luxurious. If it was displayed on display, it would definitely cause a sensation in the world of the collectibles.

The three of them walked around the altar for half a day, but they didn't find anything. They had searched for anything possible, but they just couldn't find the mechanism.

"Could it be that the secret passage isn't here at all?"

Long Xiaowei did not dare say it with certainty, and her tone was filled with hesitation.

Looking at the statue of Lin Yiyuan who was deep in thought, Big Beard saw that he did not say anything, so he gave up his search for the altar, and laid on the ground, continuously tapping his knuckles on the ground, wanting to see if the ground was empty. In the end, the cave was struck with endless bangs, one after another, one after another, "Big Beard, stop knocking, come over here and look at this!"

Lin Yiyuan seemed to have discovered something. When the bearded man and Long Xiaowei came closer, he said, "Do you remember the first time we met Grandma Meng?"

Hearing Lin Yiyuan's question, a scene appeared in Long Xiaowei and Big Beard's mind.

Back then, in the abandoned villa, after saving Big Beard, his path was blocked by Grandma Meng. Sha Chu wholeheartedly wanted to subdue this strange bird, but in the end, he was almost bitten by Grandma Meng instead. "At that time, the Old Meng bird hung upside down at the door, giving me a huge shock," Sha Chu said.

Thinking about it, Long Xiaowei still had a face full of fear.

Big Beard wanted to say something similar to Long Xiaowei, but he kept on agreeing by the side. Seeing that the two of them did not get to the point, Lin Yiyuan reminded them, "The Old Lady Meng has two faces, and everyone could see them clearly at that time.

Lin Yiyuan raised his hand and pointed to the statue.

On the neck of this stone sculpture, there was an indistinct turning mark. With just a glance, the big bearded man cried out, "So the mechanism is here! I was wondering why we couldn't find it!"

With that, the bearded man jumped onto the altar, turned his head and grinned, "All of you, hide away. Be careful or you will get hurt by accident."

Seeing that, Lin Yiyuan and Long Xiaowei immediately retreated back, all the way to the corner of the wall, only to see Big Beard raising his hands to hug the bird head, without using much strength, the bird head actually moved, and waited for the bird head to change to reveal another face, then the big bearded man stopped.

"No …"

Beard was disappointed as there were no unusual movements in the cave. He was about to say something when he stumbled. He jumped down in fear. He turned to check and found that the entire altar was shaking as if there was an earthquake.

Not long after, a crack appeared on the wall behind the altar, growing larger and larger. Inside, the same dazzling precious light was shining, and the walls were filled with bright red gems.

"Haha … the Emperor didn't disappoint anyone. He's finally found the tunnel!"

The bearded man was overjoyed.

The survival passage was right in front of him, but Lin Yiyuan was not as happy as he thought. Instead, he looked at the passage warily, and snorted after looking for a while: "Hou Wenlong, since we are all here, why are you hiding your heads and showing your tails? Come out! "

Earlier, Lin Yiyuan had already noticed that his Mao Mountain Art had undergone some changes. Now that he thought about it, in this foreign land, other than Hou Wenlong, no one else knew about the methods of their own sect.

Lin Yiyuan's words were like a bucket of cold water poured on Big Beard and Long Xiaowei's heads, causing the excitement that they had been lucky to survive to disappear instantly. Both of them looked towards the secret path at the same time.

"Good … good, this is truly amazing. Junior Apprentice Brother, I didn't manage to take your life even in such a dangerous situation. It looks like Master Death has no secrets!"

The sound of neither hurried nor slow footsteps came from inside the tunnel, it was as if they were taking a stroll in a courtyard. The walking frequency was exceptionally calm, and it was not hard to determine from the voice that it was from Hou Wenlong.

As the footsteps drew closer, the trio saw a terrifying face under the beam of the flashlight.

This time, Hou Wenlong did not try to use a human skin mask to hide himself, and completely revealed himself, with a slight smile on his face, but when that smile and that terrifying mask mixed together, the effect was unbearable to look at.

"So what if I don't have a persistent dao heart? No matter how capable I am?"

Lin Yiyuan sarcastically replied.

Hou Wenlong was unconcerned, he opened his arms and laughed: "Did you see that? This was the resting place that senior had prepared for you. With so many precious stones as a companion, as well as a bosom friend, this was something that countless people yearned for in their dreams! Today, I shall send all of these to you. "

Big Beard scolded angrily, "You ugly bastard, aren't you afraid of biting your tongue when you boast? It's really laughable that you want to deal with us! Not to mention dealing with the small forest, you won't even be able to pass this trial of mine. "

As calmly as ever, Hou Wenlong raised his right arm and pointed it at the top of the cave. "No no no no … Idiot, you're too naive. Your opponent is not me, but it …"

Lin Yiyuan looked up and saw a strange bird on top of the cave. It was the Old Lady Meng who went into the cave and disappeared.

"You want to use a bird to scare us? Hou Wenlong, are you stupid?"

The bearded man sneered.

Along the way, the three of them had met the Old Lady Meng many times, so they had become familiar with each other. Other than being able to imitate people, the slightly smaller Old Lady Meng did not have any offensive power, and when she saw people, she could not escape at all.

This bird's name is Grandma Meng, and it feeds on the souls of living people. This isn't the most important thing, the key is that it is extremely infatuated with someone, and in its entire life, it only loves one partner. Once its mate dies, the other one won't live, and that person will definitely die.

Hou Wenlong laughed in an exaggerated manner and was very pleased with himself. Under the astonished gazes of Lin Yiyuan and the other two, the Old Lady Meng who had been accumulating power for a long time finally released her claws and charged down.
