Chapter 1 A Pair of Eyes

This tomb chamber had a pair of hidden eyes that could see through his heart; even make him imagine someone in the coffin and that person would appear.

If the others from the Late Night Bookstore were here, you could still create a spooky atmosphere.

But even the young girl from the street he’d only seen once while buying milk tea was lying here. What was going on?

Of course, there was another possibility: he had just touched the pool and even created a "Yingying." Could this have caused some connection between him and the environment of this tomb chamber?

A bit like a magical artifact recognizing its owner?

But the biggest difference between Boss Zhou and the others was that most of the time, he could confidently rush ahead, knowing there was a Ying Gou (mythical Chinese creature) sitting at home.

How many times had someone tried to seize his body or use mental power to invade him? He had always generously let them in and then let Ying Gou entertain them.

If a part of his spirit had really formed some connection with this tomb chamber, Ying Gou couldn't possibly not sense it, and he wouldn't fail to notify him.

"Hey, do you feel anything special?"

Zhou Ze asked in his heart.

"No...thing..."

"Still have no impression of this place at all?"

"No...thing..."

"Then could it be that Hanba (drought demon) made it? After all, you're both zombies, so maybe the operating instructions were designed..."

"She... dumb..."

Oh.

Succinct and to the point.

Probably, in Ying Gou's eyes, Hanba was just a dumb woman. Add a prefix, and her status was lofty, but her essence was still described with that single character.

Staying here any longer wouldn't necessarily reveal anything, so Zhou Ze simply took Lao Dao (old Taoist priest) up and then had Lao Xu (old Xu) go down alone to take another look.

Among everyone, Lawyer An's array skills were only second-rate. Only Lao Xu had attainments in arrays.

While Lao Xu went down to investigate, everyone sat beside the grave robber's tunnel.

Yingying spread a layer of cloth on the ground, on which she placed many snacks, dried fruits, and the like.

When going out, as long as you brought Yingying, she could arrange your life perfectly.

No need to worry about trouble; after all, Yingying wouldn't feel tired even carrying a whole train car of things.

Zhou Ze held a cigarette in his left hand and slowly ate a piece of chicken cake with his right hand.

Lao Dao and Little Monkey each had a bag of potato chips, chewing them with a crisp "crunch."

Lawyer An, holding a slice of watermelon, came over while eating,

and said in a low voice,

"Boss, we have to think of a way to find out the location of that clan."

Before, they had been hiding. This time, they finally came out to make an appearance, but it was really just a brief one.

The small fry were directly killed by Zhou Ze, and the three who looked like leaders inexplicably committed suicide directly.

It was like they really came out to show their faces, brush up their presence, and come specifically to freeload a boxed lunch?

Zhou Ze put the last piece of chicken cake into his mouth, took the tissue that Yingying handed him to wipe his hands, and asked:

"Do you have a way to find out?"

A common man is culpable for possessing a treasure;

Since that clan had secretly hidden the Bone Throne, they must have hidden it carefully. The Bone Throne alone was enough to make most of the giants in this world jealous.

Moreover, as soon as the news of Ying Gou's reappearance came out, they must have received it long ago unless they were deaf and blind. Who would believe that this kind of power didn't have spies in hell?

Besides, in the era of Yama before the Nine Attendants came to power, the Yin Division had long been infiltrated into a sieve by various forces.

"Boss, this is what I think. Since they sent people here, it proves that they value this place very much. Since the people they sent over are all dead, then, very obviously, they will..."

"They will not dare to send people again."

"..." Lawyer An.

"Compared to others, they are the most afraid of Ying Gou."

Lawyer An twitched his lips, smacked his lips, nodded, and said:

"Yes, yes, that's the reasoning."

At this time, Xu Qinglang crawled out of the grave robber's tunnel.

"Lao Xu, did you find anything?" Lawyer An asked enthusiastically.

Xu Qinglang shook his head and said, "It feels like top human scientists observing the Trisolaran civilization."

This meant that he could tell it was very powerful, but he couldn't understand it at all.

Lao Xu sat down next to him, took a bottle of mineral water, took a few sips first, and continued:

"The things inside are seriously beyond my level. I've been looking for a long time for the kind of array that Boss mentioned that can be connected to the tomb chamber, and I'm not even sure if it really exists."

"Alright, when we have time in the future, we'll buy this piece of land and build a small research institute. You can come here and take a look whenever you have nothing to do."

Lawyer An was very generous.

"Isn't it cheap?"

"Just a few more trips to Macau. Let's contribute to the economic development of our Macanese compatriots."

"Then what do we do next?" Xu Qinglang asked.

"Let's not leave tonight. Let's set up a tent here and rest," Zhou Ze decided.

"What about tomorrow?" Lawyer An asked.

"We'll talk about tomorrow's business tomorrow."

"Boss is wise!"

The tents were set up quickly.

Zhou Ze and Yingying shared a tent, Lao Dao and Lawyer An shared a tent, and Lao Xu simply slept in the car.

Although Xuzhou really couldn't be considered a wilderness, nor a deep mountain, Lawyer An was still the first to do night watch.

…

Zhou Ze lay in the tent, his eyes closed, and his body and mind gradually began to relax.

Yingying lay obediently beside him, bringing him coolness in the summer.

In fact, the "coldness" on Yingying's body wasn't as strong as before. In Yingying's words, the bottom seemed to be thawed as well.

But the kind of peace and tranquility that Yingying brought to Zhou Ze was still the same as before, not weakened by a single bit.

Holding her by his side, with his eyes closed, it was as if he already possessed the whole world.

This sense of satisfaction was indescribable to outsiders.

However, after his mind calmed down, he couldn't fall asleep as he wished.

One reason was that Zhou Ze was careful;

He really didn't want to have that dream where he was poked and poked by the Xuanyuan Sword in a very obscene way again.

The second reason was that as soon as his mind calmed down, he heard the sound of water in his ears.

The sound of water wasn't loud, very light, but so clear.

You could even imagine the chocolate liquid in that pool gently swaying.

Zhou Ze wanted to block out this perception, but he found that the more he tried to block it out, the clearer the feeling became.

"Gurgle... gurgle..."

Suddenly,

Zhou Ze suddenly discovered that next to him, that chocolate-colored liquid was slowly rising, covering his body and filling his surroundings.

"Ying..."

Just as Zhou Ze was about to speak,

the liquid rushed towards him like crazy.

Suddenly,

the entire world

seemed to be contracted by the Dove Group.

Zhou Ze began to activate the baleful aura in his body, trying to resist forcefully, and at the same time began to call out to the iron fool.

But there was no response from the iron fool.

In the afternoon, Zhou Ze had thought that he was not afraid of things like "body seizing" and "spiritual invasion."

Sure enough,

you really can't set up this flag randomly.

Most people probably fantasized about being surrounded by sweets and other things when they were young. Zhou Ze was naturally the same when he was young.

But in reality, this feeling was really not so good.

The greasy feeling spread all over his body, bringing a hollow despair.

Fortunately, Boss Zhou was mentally resilient and didn't panic too much, just kept trying to break through the surrounding obstruction.

Once,

twice,

three times,

"Plop..."

Finally,

the pressure around him suddenly loosened,

Zhou Ze suddenly sat up.

His first reaction after sitting up was to look at Yingying beside him,

but,

when Zhou Ze turned his gaze to his side,

what he saw

was just the empty edge of the pool.

Looking around again,

he was actually lying in the pool of the main tomb chamber.

He got up

and climbed out of the pool.

Zhou Ze saw that his body was actually chocolate-colored. He rubbed it with his hand, and it wasn't just staining, because the skin inside him was also this color.

What exactly,

was going on?

Walking naked in the tomb chamber, Zhou Ze vaguely felt that this was a dream, just like the dream with the Xuanyuan Sword.

But the real environment around him and the discernment from his heart,

this was not a dream,

this seemed,

to be real.

He walked out of the main tomb chamber, into the side chamber, and then slowly came out of the grave robber's tunnel, and finally came to the ground.

Along the way,

Zhou Ze left behind body fluids dripping from his body.

After reaching the ground,

Zhou Ze could clearly see

two tents and a car ahead.

"Yingying..."

Zhou Ze shouted.

But for some reason, this voice couldn't be made.

It was as if there was a layer of diaphragm that had separated him from the outside world.

Although you are standing here, there is still a restriction between you and the surroundings.

Between a kind of illusion and reality, and you are walking in this gap.

Lawyer An was sitting in front guarding the night, holding his mobile phone, probably watching some video.

Zhou Ze had already walked over, and didn't deliberately restrain his breath or tiptoe, but Lawyer An had no reaction.

When he walked to the side of the tent,

Zhou Ze lowered his head.

There was a light in the tent, a battery-powered light, the light was dim yellow, but it could last a long time.

This was the tent where he and Yingying slept,

and at this time, with the dim yellow light,

he could clearly see

that there were two people

lying in the tent.

Himself,

was still lying inside,

holding Yingying,

sleeping.

Then what was the "himself"

in front of him

supposed to be?

Zhou Ze reached out to grab the tent,

he wanted to overturn the tent and see what was going on with the him lying inside.

Just then,

Lawyer An seemed to sense something,

suddenly turned his head to look here,

He didn't see anything, but he felt something was wrong.

And in the tent,

Yingying's low shout came:

"Who!"

"It's me."

Zhou Ze answered as he continued to grab the tent.

"Bang!"

The tent was torn open from the inside,

Yingying's fist smashed directly towards this side.

Zhou Ze subconsciously reached out to catch it,

but a fist aura directly crushed his hand,

and twisted and crushed his arm, his chest,

his,

whole body.

Just as his extremely fragile body was rapidly dissolving,

Zhou Ze heard a lazy voice from inside the tent:

"What's wrong, Yingying?"

"I don't know, Boss, it's so strange. I just sensed danger, but now I can't see anything."

"..." Zhou Ze.
