After returning to the tunnel filled with fog, the surroundings were completely silent.

Fang Zishu and the others who had previously attacked Qi Sanpang had not managed to hide where they were. Fang Zishu and the others had advanced for quite a while, but they were still unable to find any traces of them. It was as if these extremely aggressive creatures had mysteriously disappeared after they finished sprinkling the lime, leaving no traces behind at all.

"The situation might have changed. Everyone be careful!"

After giving his instructions, he walked with Qi Sanpang to the front of the group.

Just in case, there was a cloth bag the size of a bowl hanging on the left side of the book.

The things in the bag were not other things. They were the powders that he had collected from the pit.

Previously, they had taken a total of three big backpacks, but in the group, other than the team members who were unconscious due to the corpse poison, there were a total of six people.

Even though there was a lot of Stone Dust in the three bags, it wasn't enough for six people.

Fortunately, before Fang Zishu set off, his backpack had quite a few waterproof small bags, so after exiting the hole, they all sat down next to a relatively bright spot. They divided the three bags evenly into six portions.

With each of them holding a portion, even if they were to encounter the Redbud Bat again, they wouldn't be flustered at all. They would be able to use the powder in their hands to attack the Redbud Bats.

However, along the way, not to mention the traces of the Red Bat, even the ordinary bats, Fang Zishu, had not found a single one. This caused Fang Zishu to feel a strange feeling in his heart, and the worry in his heart grew stronger as time passed.

He had the feeling that up ahead, in the unknown, there were many difficulties that were hard to deal with. This difficulty might be even more formidable than the difficulties he had encountered with the Redbud Bluetail Bat, the black snake, and even the red army ants.

Thinking of this, Fang Zishu's heart skipped a beat, "Qi Sanpang, I feel that something is not right. We must check every inch of the road, and do not fall into the trap set up by the lord of the tomb!"

As someone who spent most of his time in the tomb, Qi Sanpang did not have a long time of vigilance, so the silence that followed made him feel strange. However, since Fang Zhoupao did not say anything, he suppressed the doubts in his heart.

"I had felt that there were too many anomalies on this mist-filled path a long time ago. Now, it seems that you and I have the same guess, and it seems that we have to be extremely careful for the rest of the journey!"

The tunnel filled with fog was very long, so long that one could not see the end of it.

If the police officer had not fallen asleep, Fang Zishu could have asked the police officer about the situation in front of them, but the police officer was fast asleep under his Spirit Suppressing Technique and would not be able to wake up in a short period of time. Thus, Fang Zishu did not know where the end of the tunnel led to.

Time slowly passed.

The measure of time here is infinitely elongated.

Fang Zishu and Qi Sanpang led Professor Xu and the others through this foggy tunnel. After a long time, the foggy tunnel finally opened when the soles of their feet were feeling hot and weak. The book knew that they had finally walked out of this weird tunnel.

"There's a stone monument up ahead!" Qi Sanpang reminded.

"Let's go take a look!"

"Yes." Fang Zishu replied. He held the gold-threaded red-threaded copper sword in one hand and a Thunder Fire Rune in the other. Under the protection of both his hands, he carefully moved towards the stone tablet. When Fang Zishu approached the stone tablet, he discovered that the stone tablet was actually engraved with simple characters.

Fang Zishu recognized the characters on the monument at a glance. It was identical to the words on the monument that he had found on the 'Azure Dragon Water Gathering Pit' in the middle reaches of the Oao River, which was also the words on the monument that stood in front of the 'Heavenly Palace' in the tomb of the 'Master.

"It's Qin Xiaolian!" Fang Zishu exclaimed.

"Qin Xiaolian?" Qi Sanbiao looked at the tadpole-like characters on the monument and could not help but say, "Brother Fang, I didn't think that you would know of the Qin era's Little Charms at such a young age!"

Fang Zhushu scratched his head and chuckled, "I've seen some similar words in other tombs before, so I could tell with a glance that the characters engraved on this stone tablet were the Qin Dynasty's Qin Shi Xiao Chen."

Pausing for a moment, Fang Zishu continued, "Although I know that the text on the stone monument is a small paper charm, I still don't understand the meaning of the specific questions written on the stone monument. As for the comprehension of the stone monument, I think I'll have to trouble Professor Xu!"

As he said the last sentence, Fang Zishu's face revealed traces of regret.

Seeing this, Qi Sanpang couldn't help comforting him, "Brother Fang, you have an expert in this field. Professor Xu has worked in archaeology for his entire life, so he naturally has a high level of knowledge on ancient languages. You're only at the age of a weak crown and it's not easy for you to recognize the characters on this monument. Why are you so depressed?"

When Fang Zishu heard this, a smile appeared on his face.

The reason why he didn't reveal his talent was not because he didn't believe Qi Sanpang, but because he didn't want others to know that when he was in the tomb of his Master, he found clues regarding the 'Spirit Infant'. It was also because Fang Zhoushu also found a stone tablet with the same inscriptions on Qin.

When Professor Xu heard the words Qin, he could not help but reveal a joyful expression.

Since they had entered the cave, they had encountered many dangers, but on the way, they didn't find any stone tablets or relief sculptures that recorded the clues of the master of the tomb. Along the way, this natural tomb had shocked Professor Xu greatly, and he really wanted to know, in his heart, which generation of noble generals the owner of this natural tomb was, and he also wanted to know the structure and main body of this huge tomb.

At this moment, they finally found a stone tablet at the end of the passageway, an ancient tablet engraved with small characters from the previous Qin Dynasty.

Although he hadn't analyzed the meaning of the ancient characters on the tablet, Professor Xu could guess that the contents recorded on the tablet must be closely related to the lord of the tomb. Perhaps through this tablet, he could find the complete structure of the tomb and some clues about the lord of the tomb, laying a solid foundation for further excavation of the tomb and its subsequent archaeology!
