"Whiz!"

A sudden gust of cold wind brushed past my body, sending a chill down my spine.

Ye Zichen looked up in surprise, while Zhu Tai was already staring at the stairs in front of him with his eyes wide open.

A few seconds later, Zhu Tai who was sitting on the ground suddenly turned around. He took out a stack of yellow paper from his backpack and lit it in front of the stairs.

"Brother Zhu?" I looked in front of me in surprise.

Zhu Tai replied without even turning his head, "Small matters. There are many things like underground. You don't need to worry about them."

Si Zhu and the monkey looked normal, but Fan Cunlong and his brother were a little confused, and then they started to react slowly, as if they had realized something.

"Qi Qiao, don't worry, this kind of thing is normal for us, so we don't need to worry about it too much."

Seeing that they were all speaking so easily, I also calmed my heart down. If it was a major event, Wang Xu definitely wouldn't be such a casual manner.

"I'm not very familiar with this world, so I didn't dare to use too extreme methods. I only comforted that brat a bit." Zhu Tai counted with his fingers, as if he was calculating something.

After a while, he raised his head and said, "We should increase our speed. The yin aura here suddenly gets heavier. At this rate, I'm afraid something bad will happen very soon."

"Did life and death clash? Damn, Lao Zhu, how much longer do you think we have? "

Wang Xu grinned and quickly stood up. I could hear a hint of helplessness and indignation in his voice, as though he'd drunk a mouthful of cold water and then stuffed it into his teeth.

Zhu Tai remained silent. He lowered his head and counted with his fingers. "At most four hours."

"Four hours should be enough!" Wang Xu spat out a mouthful of saliva and quickly hung it on his body, saying, "Then let's move quickly, lest we cause too much trouble." As he spoke, he kicked Si Zhu and said: "Still eating! "I think Monkey is right. When you go back, dig a grave for the house and hide in it every day for dinner."

"Hey!" How can that be, boss!? " Si Zhu cried out, carefully lifting his backpack and carrying it on his back.

"I think so! Si Zhu, when the time comes, I will work for you as a free labourer and have Lao Shu design a luxurious grave for you that belongs to a noble king.

The monkey spoke out in agreement, looking at Si Zhu strangely, waiting for the monkey to speak. Si Zhu then smiled coyly and threw away the canned food in his hand that was not finished yet.

Now, even if it was just a child, he knew that he had to find a place where no one could see him and throw away trash. Yet, he just threw his leftover food into someone else's grave in front of everyone's eyes. No matter how they looked at it, there was something weird about it.

"Respect the dead Si Zhu, how can you be like this!" The monkey started to provoke him again. Si Zhu looked at him and said: "Eldest nephew, it's enough. Let's talk after we get out. Save your energy for a sudden situation. "

The monkey was speechless. He glared at Si Zhu and wordlessly carried his backpack. He then activated his flashlight and followed behind Wang Xu.

Zhu Tai didn't sit down since he got up. He turned on the flashlight and looked around the dark places, frowning.

"Let's go!" Among the nine of us, Wang Xu, Lao Shu and A Qilu are at the front, protecting the Zhu Tai at the center. From this, I can roughly understand that amongst us, Zhu Tai is probably the weakest one.

However, thinking about it, it made sense. Yin Yang Master, as a profession, had to frequently interact with dead Yin beings, so the Yang Qi in their bodies must be extremely weak. The direct result of the weakness of the Yang Qi was that a person would not have a very good physique.

The stone steps were long and unimaginably long, and the bottomless depths never seemed to end, and what surprised me was that they were not straight steps like I had imagined, but spiraling downward, making me feel even more insecure by the dizzying curvature of the darkness.

If only there was a handrail! I thought about these unrealistic things.

Puteng! All of a sudden, a very powerful sound of flapping wings appeared in this peaceful black space. In just two seconds, the sound was very close to us.

Before the light from the flashlight could even catch the thing, Fan Cunlong had already pointed the crossbow at the source of the sound and shot it out.

As soon as the sound of the crossbow ended, a dark object the size of a man's belly and with a pair of large fleshy wings fell on the steps in front of us. A short crossbow was stuck in his stomach, and green blood oozed out of it due to the stench.

"What the hell is this?!" Wang Xu, after confirming that the fellow with the pair of large fleshy wings was completely dead, flipped it over with his foot. Below the meat wing was a fat belly with crossbow bolts sticking out of it; no matter what, the stomach was like a balloon filled with air, similarly black and incomparably smooth.

The meatball should be considered to have a head, but its size was insignificant compared to its body. If it wasn't for the fact that it had a pair of sharp teeth or horn on its head, I would have ignored the existence of this head.

"It might be something that mutated when I was growing it, I think it might be a variant of the bat!" The rat squatted down, pressed its hand on the ball of meat, and pulled up the pair of wings to take a closer look.

However, at this time, a sudden change occurred. This meatball that should have been completely dead suddenly came to life. A small crack appeared on its insignificant head. What appeared in the crack was a smack of its venomous sharp teeth.

"Be careful!" Wang Xu had just been born and reminded, yet the rat seemed to have already been prepared. With a press of its hand on an unknown part of the meatball, the meatball immediately twitched a few times like it had been electrocuted and turned soft, turning into a pile of dead meat.

"It's quite interesting. I'll take it back to study it!" Mouse's eyes were shining with excitement as he pulled the crossbow out of the meat ball's stomach, bringing with it a stream of green blood with a strong stench.

Wang Xu frowned and said, "Throw it here first. We'll take it out when we get here. What do you want to do if you get in the way later?"

"That's true!" Lao Shu nodded. He carefully placed the deflated meatball on the stairs as if he was looking at a treasure. Then, he patted the meatball twice.

I grinned. The actions of a mouse were really too visually impactful. No matter how you looked at it, the way he treated this unknown creature that was a mutated beast in his mouth was extremely weird.

"That's his character. Let's go." Wang Xu could not help but agree. He then looked at the stage that was standing there without moving, as though he had fallen into deep thought and said: "Lao Zhu, what's wrong?"

The altar didn't respond. Instead, he placed his hands together and said after a long time, "The situation has changed. We only have three hours left."

"F * ck!" Wang Xu's eyes widened as he looked at the altar, "What's going on!? Didn't you just say that it would take four hours? "

Zhu Tai frowned and said, "Something caused this change, and this change happened when the rat killed this thing."

The podium pointed to the unknown corpse on the steps, and it was clear that there was something that also puzzled him.

"In less than three hours, which is more than two hours, we have to hurry! "Let's go!" After Wang Xu said this, he no longer hesitated and immediately took quick steps down the stone steps. We all gathered together, not daring to hesitate in the slightest. To be able to make the altar feel this was a very troublesome matter, it was definitely not a small matter.

As he sped up, he could clearly feel that the space around him was getting smaller and smaller.

In the darkness, it was impossible to tell how many meters we had actually gone underground. Just according to Si Zhu's words, from the changes in the light, it seemed like the space around us had begun to fold more and more. Therefore, the obstructing force of space had also become extremely large, the amount of light that the flashlight could emit already being less than three meters.

After safely walking down the spiral staircase, the surrounding stone walls gathered all of the space. We stood on a flat ground that had an area of no more than 20 square meters, and were completely dumbfounded as we looked around us that were completely empty.

"What the f * ck!" "What does that mean!?" Wang Xu was stunned. It wasn't just him, but everyone else was as well.

After so long, there was nothing here at all. Just this?

A Qilu also walked around the stone wall, using the local dialect to shout something, but none of us could understand what he was saying.

"It would be much more convenient to start from here." The altar held its breath, and it took a long time before he could finally sigh.

The corner of Wang Xu's mouth twitched. We faced each other, not knowing what to say.

"Zheng, Wang Ge, what do you see engraved here?" Fan Cunlong's gaze was extremely sharp, under the light, he pointed at the ground at the base of the wall and said with a strange tone.

"What?" We are close to the place Fan Cunlong pointed at, where there are many disorderly engravings.

Yes, it was a mess, or at least it seemed to me that way, because I didn't know anything at all, and I was sure it wasn't any of the ancient languages I knew.

"I don't know him either, Lao Zhu?" Wang Xu stared at that item for a long time before finally turning his pleading eyes towards the altar.

The altar leaned forward and felt the lines for a long time. These lines did not exist in a single place, but were carved into the ground at the base of the wall.

"There's a strange power above it. It should be related to the surrounding space." Zhu Tai said with a somewhat uncertain frown.

"You don't recognize him either?" Wang Xu's eyes widened.

The altar nodded. "I can only feel the power of the interpretation of these lines."
