Missing your smile

Chapter 220 Endless Pull

"Heh heh, why did you have a chance to escape just now but choose to stay here?"

The tragic voice echoed in Qin Hui's ears. Clearly, this female ghost was not in a hurry to possess him. Perhaps she had been lonely for thousands of years and wanted someone to chat with before killing him.

"How about this? Since I can't escape anyway, I have a few questions for you. After I'm done, you can do whatever you want."

Qin Hui sat down cross-legged, his face calm.

"Oh? Interesting. Ask away then."

The tragic voice sounded in Qin Hui's ears, echoing endlessly.

"Are you the guardian of this great tomb?"

Qin Hui asked his first question.

"Am I not?"

"If so, why can't you enter the secret passage and can only wander here?"

"Heh heh, I am indeed not the guardian of this great tomb. I was thrown in by them, and there are energy restrictions around me. I can only wander here."

The female ghost showed no vigilance towards Qin Hui. If ghosts were afraid of humans, what kind of ghosts would they be?

"Then do you know what the most precious thing in this great tomb is? I don't believe that coffin is filled with treasures. Who would put things in such a conspicuous place?"

Qin Hui asked calmly.

"Why do you think I would tell you, or do you have the confidence to escape from me?"

The female ghost was very intelligent and quickly saw through Qin Hui's thoughts. These were not questions a dying person would ask.

"Cough, cough, speaking of which, how did you get tricked into coming here if you're so smart?"

Qin Hui asked with a cold smile. When dealing with people, speak like people; when dealing with ghosts, speak like ghosts.

"You... you're asking for death!"

The tragic voice grew louder in Qin Hui's ears, clearly indicating that Qin Hui had angered the other party.

*Bang!*

A powerful suction suddenly appeared in Qin Hui's palm, pulling towards his back.

"Ah~"

"You, what kind of evil art is this!"

The female ghost screamed tragically, as if her soul was being severed.

Although Qin Hui's back was transparent, there was actually a chilling aura present.

Humans have three souls and seven spirits, all invisible to the naked eye. At this moment, the female ghost's soul was in Qin Hui's palm, and no matter how she struggled, she couldn't break free.

"It's just the Yin Yang Dual Life Art. Are you scared by such a minor technique?"

Qin Hui said with a smug smile.

The Yin Yang Dual Life Art was not only effective against women. Especially the word "Yin" contained so much, such as the Yin spirit and Yin soul present before him.

For ghostly and Yin entities, especially female ones, it was naturally a natural restraint!

"Ah, hurry, hurry, let me go." The female ghost screamed tragically. She felt like her body was being cut by a chainsaw at that moment.

"Let you go?"

"How could that be? If I let you go, you'll possess me?"

Qin Hui retorted with a cold smile.

"No, I won't dare again. Hurry up and withdraw your art."

The female ghost's screams continued, becoming increasingly piercing.

"If I let you go just because you asked, wouldn't that make me lose face? Besides, once they finish looting the treasures, your presence here won't be very significant. It's better to send you on your way to reincarnate sooner."

Qin Hui refused directly, his expression blank.

"I, I know where the treasures are. I'll take you there."

The female ghost finally compromised. What was admitting defeat compared to her own life? Besides, her mortal life was already gone, leaving only her ghostly existence. If that was also lost, she would truly vanish into nothingness.

"Why should I believe you?"

Qin Hui said unhurriedly. In this day and age, one had to be discerning with what ghosts said; it would be troublesome if he were to suffer.

"You, if you don't believe me, then kill me."

The female ghost was utterly speechless. She had never been pulled around like this before.

Seeing that the female ghost had been tormented enough by him, Qin Hui finally retracted his art.

"Lead the way. If you dare to play any tricks, hehe."

Qin Hui revealed a sinister smile.

In this era, the most frightening things were not ghosts, but people more cunning than ghosts.

...

"I didn't expect so many traps here."

Bai Xiong casually tossed aside the person blocking his path.

After this round of dealing with cold arrows, there weren't many survivors left. Besides Bai Ling, Hei Gui, Leng Mu, and Li Dazhuang, only Bai Xiong remained.

"Everyone go in and take a look. Let's start distributing according to what we agreed upon beforehand."

Leng Mu spoke at this moment. The Dragon Patrol Division had paid a huge price for this tomb raiding expedition. If these people went back on their word, then there would be trouble.

Everyone's faces still maintained a semblance of reason, but after entering the great tomb, that reason quickly disappeared.

The tomb owner was buried in a golden coffin, surrounded by shining golden objects, colloquially known as antiques.

"Tsk tsk, these things look like porcelain bowls left from the Tang and Qing Dynasties."

Bai Xiong quickly found valuable treasures. Gold, for him, was not a shortage; his family had plenty. However, antiques with such collection value were rare.

Hei Gui and Bai Ling were not picky. They picked up whatever they saw, even picking up several perfectly carved imperial seals.

Leng Mu was not interested in these treasures at all, as his entire focus was on this golden coffin. Nothing outside was as valuable as what was inside.

Soon, everyone's gaze fell upon the coffin, their eyes filled with greed.

"You, go and open it!"

Bai Xiong looked at Li Dazhuang. If anything unexpected happened, he could let this guy die. The more people died, the fewer people there would be to share the loot.

Facing Bai Xiong's provocation, Li Dazhuang coldly chuckled, "You are not qualified to order me. I don't want anything in the coffin. Whoever wants it can open the coffin themselves."

Upon hearing this, Bai Xiong's face turned ashen. After his eyes darted around, he looked at Hei Gui.

"You have the most professional skills here, so you do it."

Bai Xiong said with no room for doubt.

"Why? If anyone opens it, it should be you first."

Bai Ling shouted from the side. Although they were not good people, Bai Xiong was even worse.

*Creak, creak!*

Bai Xiong twisted his neck. "Have you considered it?"

Facing Bai Xiong's threat, Hei Gui's face turned pale.

"Fine, I can open it, but I want half of the items inside afterward!"

Hei Gui was not stupid.

Hearing this, the few people clearly hesitated for a moment. If Hei Gui took half, then what they received would be even less.

"Okay."

To everyone's surprise, Bai Xiong was the first to nod. What he was thinking in his heart, only he himself knew.

With Bai Xiong's nod, the others had no choice but to nod.

*Bang!*

Hei Gui went to the side of the coffin, grabbed one side of the coffin with both hands, and forcefully pushed it open.

The moment the coffin was pushed open, everyone was stunned by what they saw...
