Realizing the coldness in Jiang Cheng's eyes, Lin Qianqian immediately fell silent, not out of fear, but because she disliked the feeling of having her life controlled by others. It made her feel very helpless, as powerless as facing fate itself.

"Make the call, I don't believe all three of them died there." Yuan Shanyuan said, his status obviously more convincing than the average person, "Call Yao Shunyu first, that kid doesn't seem like someone who's going to die young."

They had already tried communicating via WeChat, but the messages sent to the three were like stones sinking into the sea, with no response.

Yuan Shanyuan wasn't one for empty words. He took out his phone first and dialed Yao Shunyu, turning on the speakerphone at the same time, but the call didn't go through, which was within everyone's expectations.

Then Luo Tianhe also took out his phone. He chose Li Bai, who had last contacted them, but unfortunately, he couldn't get through either.

The fatty couldn't help clenching his fists. In his mind, whether it was Yao Shunyu or Li Bai, their skills were better than Ding Zhenzong's, but of course, that was just his personal opinion.

But now that the first two were out of contact, Ding Zhenzong, sandwiched in between, was probably in mortal danger as well.

Finally, Jiang Cheng stepped forward to make the last call. Seeing Lin Qianqian looking like a frightened bird, Jiang Cheng was worried she would mess things up. He found Ding Zhenzong's number, and after a few seconds, finally dialed it.

Just as everyone was holding their breath, suddenly, a "beep" sound rang out.

The call actually went through!

But before everyone could rejoice, a phone ringtone echoed in their ears at the same time.

The ringtone drifted over, as if not far from them. Following the sound, everyone was shocked to find that the phone ringtone was coming from inside Master Wu's tomb, from the deep hole dug out from the inside of the grave!

Seeing this scene, Jiang Cheng immediately hung up the phone, a layer of fine sweat breaking out on his back.

Even the dumbest person could understand that something must have happened here. Ding Zhenzong's phone ringtone was coming from Master Wu's tomb, how could that be possible?

Luo Tianhe, bold due to his skills, lit up his phone's flashlight and stood at the edge of the hole, shining it inside. The next scene was almost unbearable even for him. He saw a human face exposed below the hole.

It was Ding Zhenzong, who they couldn't contact!

But at this moment, Ding Zhenzong's face was pale, with almost the same eerie smile as the young master. His arms were curled up on his chest, and even more terrifying, he was clutching a cell phone tightly in his left hand!

Before everyone could recover, the screen of that cell phone suddenly lit up, and then that familiar cell phone ringtone once again echoed in everyone's ears, a chilling sensation sweeping over everyone present like a storm.

"Are you crazy? You still dare to call?!" Lin Qianqian shouted at Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng didn't intend to pay attention to her at all, just raised the cell phone in his hand, and said word by word: "It wasn't me."

Staring at Jiang Cheng's phone with its black screen, Lin Qianqian opened her mouth slightly, too nervous to say a word. The scene before her had exceeded the limits of most people's understanding. If it were a new batch of people, they would probably have collapsed directly.

Luo Tianhe was the first to calm down. He went to the side of the coffin and tore off a rope used for fixing it. He first made a circle at one end of the rope, and then quickly tied a knot. "Put the rope down and pull Ding Zhenzong up."

"What if... what if he's a ghost? There's no reason for Ding Zhenzong to be here, let alone die here." Lin Qianqian was very resistant to Ding Zhenzong's corpse. In her eyes, it looked like a trap.

"We can't worry about that much, we can only gamble that he is the real Ding Zhenzong, and have you thought about it, who else would call Ding Zhenzong besides us now?"

Luo Tianhe's words awakened everyone from their dreams. The fatty said excitedly: "Are you saying that the call was from Yao Shunyu, or Li Bai, they... they didn't die?"

"Yes, it should be like this. I don't believe that a side mission would wipe out a 3-man team, and the mission won't leave us in a situation where we can only wait for death, so at least one person from the other team is still alive, and this person is our hope." Yuan Shanyuan said firmly, "That cell phone is our last chance. We can't contact the survivor with our cell phones, but I think we can definitely do it with Ding Zhenzong's cell phone."

Seeing that there was hope, the team's enthusiasm was rekindled. Even Lin Qianqian, who was just trying to get by, no longer hid her skills and joined everyone in putting the rope into the hole.

The current difficulty is that the opening of the hole is narrow, and the inner walls of the hole are tortuous and rough, so it is very difficult to rely on dragging the rope buckle to hook Ding Zhenzong's body and pull him up.

"I'll do it. It's no good hooking the body, so I'll just hook the neck. I'll hook the neck and drag him out." Lin Qianqian snatched the rope. She first put the rope buckle down, then swayed it left and right. With a clever force, the rope buckle swayed a few times and accurately hooked around the corpse's neck. With another force, the rope buckle tightened, and it was considered secured.

Seeing Lin Qianqian's skilled movements, it was obvious that this wasn't the first time she had done this kind of thing. The fatty couldn't help but think highly of Lin Qianqian. Sure enough, none of the teammates who can appear in the high-end games are simple.

The rest was much simpler. Everyone worked together to drag the corpse out. Because they used too much force, Ding Zhenzong's neck was deformed, and his face became distorted and terrifying.

But people are dead, like a extinguished lamp. In this situation, who can care about this? Prying open Ding Zhenzong's hand, Luo Tianhe snatched the phone, and the next second, the phone actually rang again.

Pressing the answer button as quickly as possible and turning on the speakerphone, everyone held their breath.

The other side seemed to be more cautious than them. The phone was connected, but they didn't say a word, and only a faint breathing sound could be heard.

In the end, they couldn't hold back any longer. "Yao Shunyu?" Jiang Cheng suddenly said.

"Jiang Cheng? Is that you?" Yao Shunyu's voice immediately rang out on the other end.

After quickly explaining the situation here, Jiang Cheng asked about the whereabouts of Master Wu's body. Yao Shunyu said that he didn't see Master Wu's body either, but he guessed that the body was likely in the young master's room, and Li Bai was guarding the room.

Without hanging up the phone, Yao Shunyu immediately rushed to the young master's room. Li Bai was startled when he saw him, thinking he was a ghost in disguise. Yao Shunyu didn't waste any words and rushed directly to the young master's bed, tearing off the curtains and lifting the quilt.

The next scene stunned Li Bai. Lying on the bed was not the young master, but Master Wu!

It was Master Wu's body!

"You guys wait where you are, don't wander around. Li Bai and I will send the body over now. I won't abandon you, because if you all die, I won't be able to live either!" Yao Shunyu left the last sentence and hung up the phone.
