Chapter 482 Someone Underground

Chapter 482 Someone Underground
The Ten Wonderful Caves are located in Nanling Mountains, and the place where they are located is a place of good feng shui.

It is rumored that the greatest martial emperor in the world a thousand years ago was buried here, hoping to bring blessings to future generations.

Afterwards, many geniuses and monarchs chose this place as their burial place.

The result is that you dig and I dig, and a good piece of Feng Shui land is almost turned into honeycomb coal.

Not only was the Feng Shui pattern destroyed, but there were also countless ancient tombs, formations, mechanisms, and traps built by various masters.

In the following hundreds of years, many more ground rats visited.

They dug here and there, and although most of the digging was done without return, they dug the already precarious land into pieces.

As the wind and rain subside, it looks like a complete place on the surface, but in fact, if you are not careful, you will fall into the cave and fall into an unknown place.

If you are lucky, you may fall into the tomb of an important figure, gain some opportunities, and then climb out.

If you are unlucky... then there is no chance of survival.

However, it is said that the most terrifying person in the entire Ten Absolute Caves is the First Martial Emperor who lived a thousand years ago.

There was no such thing as the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors at that time, so the First Martial Emperor was the number one person in the world.

Legend has it that this man's tomb contains countless wealth and unimaginable magical powers.

If he could obtain it, he would be invincible in the world and would be able to recreate the style of the No. 1 Martial Emperor in the past.

This rumor has been circulating for thousands of years, and many people in the world know about it, but no one has ever been able to walk out of the tomb of the First Martial Emperor.

Some people even say that the tomb of the first Emperor Wu has never been found.

There are countless rumors.

In the end, this Feng Shui treasure land was turned into an extremely dangerous and terrifying place.

Starting from Tianyi Sect, headed by Chu Qing, they led various masters from three prefectures, three sects, three clans, two gangs, three halls, five schools and one village.

They traveled day and night with all their might, and after walking for thirteen days in one go, they finally arrived at the Ten Absolute Caves.

According to the usual practice, before setting foot in the Ten Absolute Caves, Chu Qing had people set up camp and have a good night's rest.

Wait until tomorrow morning before taking action.

There is no wind or stars tonight. The moonlight is low and dim. The crescent moon half hanging in the sky has a hazy feeling.

Chu Qing stood on a hilltop, with his hands behind his back, looking at the mountains in the distance.

That is the Ten Caves.

Once you step into it, it is hard to tell whether you will live or die.

And now, the biggest problem Chu Qing faces is...the Ten Absolute Caves are not small and cover a huge area. No one knows where the Ghost Emperor is trapped.

Even if Chu Qing had more people, looking for someone among them would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

However, there will always be traces left where you have gone.

If the people from Tianxie Cult were here, they would definitely not be silent.

Especially when his group of people showed up, as long as they noticed something, they would definitely investigate quietly. With Chu Qing's current cultivation level, if someone was spying, they would definitely be able to catch the slightest trace, and then search in reverse, it would not be difficult to find the other party.

"The dangers in the Ten Absolute Caves are far more than just the Tianxie Cult."

Wu Qianhuan's voice came from his side. Chu Qing turned around and saw Wu Qianhuan pulling Wenrou towards him.

He smiled slightly:
"You must be tired after all this journey, why don't you take a good rest?"

"Seeing that you are worried, how can I sleep?"

Wu Qianhuan came to his side and hugged his arm.

"I can't sleep either."

Wenrou moved around to his right side and also hugged his arm.

This girl has been a little bold and reckless recently, and has started to try to imitate Wu Qianhuan in everything... I wonder if this is a side effect of practicing the [Unchanging Heavenly Book].

Wu Qianhuan ignored what Wenrou was doing and asked:

"Any ideas?"

"I was just thinking, it would be nice if a master tomb robber came."

Chu Qing exhaled slowly.

"Even if there is, it probably won't be of any use."

Wu Qianhuan said:
“I don’t know how many rats are buried here.”

"That's true."

Chu Qing smiled:
"Okay, I'm just taking a look to relax. Tomorrow you all stay by my side. Be careful and don't be careless."

"it is good."

After Wu Qianhuan finished speaking, she glanced at Chu Qing:
"By the way, what did my father tell you that day?"

"..."

Chu Qing blinked. To be precise, it was thirteen days ago, a quarter of an hour before departure.

At that time, Wu Ganqi dragged Chu Qing to a secluded place and spoke to him... The content was nothing more than coercion and inducement, asking him to treat Wu Qianhuan well.

It's just that the mayor of Tianwu City, who should have been flamboyant, looked a little sad at the end of his speech.

He told Chu Qing:
“I know you are young now and have deep feelings.

“Qian Huan is extremely beautiful, so it is understandable that you are happy about her... But time is merciless, who can guarantee that this relationship will last forever?
"If one day in the future Qian Huan no longer looks beautiful, then, then you should not despise her.

"You can return her to me."

Chu Qing sighed in his heart at that time, although Wu Ganqi looks tall and mighty, he is actually a tough guy with a soft heart.

It seemed that he had only had one woman in his life, and after Wu Qianhuan's mother passed away, he never remarried.

As Wu Qianhuan was a woman, he had never thought of finding another person to have a son. He gave all his tenderness throughout his life to Wu Qianhuan's mother and this precious jewel in his palm.

Facing Wu Ganqi's words, Chu Qing also knew that it was useless to say anything at this time.

Action speaks louder than words.

But it takes time to see actual actions, so at that time Chu Qing could only honestly express his loyalty.

Wu Ganqi didn't say anything else, and the conversation between the two ended there.

After that, Chu Qing led everyone to the Ten Absolute Caves, while Wu Ganqi and Chu Yunfei and others set out directly from Tianyi Gate and headed to Lingbei.

Under the escort of many masters from Tianyin Mansion, Liaoyuan Mansion and other places, they went straight to Liexing Mansion to gain a firm foothold first and then study the relocation of Tianwu City.

Now hearing Wu Qianhuan's question, Chu Qing didn't know what to say for a moment.

I could only squeeze her hand gently:

"What else can my father-in-law say? Of course, he will let me take good care of you. If I dare to bully you, he will beat me to death."

"... Come on, my father would never say such a thing."

Wu Qianhuan rolled her eyes at him:
"Besides, my father is no match for you."

"Why, my father-in-law hit me, do I dare to fight back?"

Chu Qing smiled and said:

"If one day I really fail you, the worst that can happen is that I will just wait for death..."

"Stop talking nonsense."

Wu Qianhuan was in a hurry to cover Chu Qing's mouth, and Wenrou stood aside and smiled secretly, but was discovered by Wu Qianhuan:

"Look, Xiao Rourou is laughing at me!!"

"I do not have it."

Wenrou immediately shook her head and retorted:

"When did I laugh at you... I, I was laughing at Third Brother."

Chu Qing's eyes widened:

"What are you laughing at me for?"

"What a joke... you're a henpecked man who's afraid of your wife!" Chu Qing was dumbfounded, and then he became furious and said:
"Okay, Xiao Rou'er has learned bad things, right? You actually dare to play tricks on me like this, let's see what your third brother can do!"

Wenrou let go of Chu Qing's arm and turned around and ran away.

"Catch her, don't let him go!"

Wu Qianhuan was causing more trouble.

In the midst of all the chaos, Wenrou suddenly exclaimed:
"what?"

He leaped up and jumped directly into Chu Qing's arms.

Chu Qing hugged her as if she was holding a large doll, holding her waist with both hands to prevent her from falling.

Wenrou hugged Chu Qing's neck and looked back, her eyes full of fear.

"What happened?"

Wu Qianhuan also hurried over and was quite surprised when she saw Wenrou's appearance.

This was obviously a shock.

This posture is a bit ambiguous...

If it were the Wu Qianhuan of the past, there wouldn't be any such associations, but the present is different after all.

Chu Qing didn't think as much as she did, but frowned slightly:

"There's someone underground."

"underground?"

Wu Qianhuan was stunned for a moment, then he heard a hissing sound and a hand emerged from the ground.

This scene seemed a little scary, as if a corpse buried underground wanted to break out of the ground and devour its prey.

But the next moment, the hand shook violently, and then pushed hard to one side.

There was a loud crash of dirt falling down, followed by a figure leaping out.

There was a hole in the ground that was only big enough for one person to pass through... a thief's hole! ?

Chu Qing's eyes fell on that person, and he was stunned again:
"It's you?"

"Is it you?"

After the man landed and stood firm, he looked at Chu Qing and the other two with astonishment in his eyes:
"It's true. Life is full of people who meet each other everywhere... Why did you come here to talk about love?"

Then his eyes fell on Chu Qing and Wen Rou, and he smiled:
"Are you in such a hurry?"

Chu Qing coughed and put Wenrou on the ground.

Wenrou was startled just now and couldn't help but hide behind Chu Qing, peeking at the person opposite her.

The moonlight today is not very bright, it is a hazy and hairy moon.

Wenrou carefully distinguished it, sniffed to confirm the smell, and then recognized the identity of the person in front of her:
"No... Miss Mu, why are you hiding underground at night instead of sleeping? Are you... are you trying to scare people to death!?"

The person who came was the shepherd boy.

After Tianfo Temple, they separated. The shepherd boy said he wanted to go to Nanling, while Chu Qing stayed in the north of the mountain for a while.

I thought she would be in the Yin Yang Forest, accompanying You Zong.

But I didn’t expect that this girl actually ran to the Ten Absolute Caves... to rob tombs?
I have to say, it is reasonable for her to do this given her status... Well, not so reasonable.

After all, she is the daughter of Emperor Xuan. If this gets out, it will be somewhat of a laughing stock.

"You think I would."

The shepherd boy brushed the dirt off his body. Her attire today was very different from before.

When we first met in Divine Sword City, she was dressed seductively and captivated everyone.

When we met again at Tianfo Temple, she looked very normal, dressed in white, looking neat and pretty.

When I saw her tonight, she was wearing a black outfit, and her hair was wrapped in black cloth and tied behind her head. She was dressed very neatly.

She was carrying some tools used for tomb robbing and had a treasure bag hanging around her waist. Her face looked a little dishevelled, but it did not detract from her delicate features, but made them look even more beautiful.

She muttered to herself, put her hand across her face, and frowned:
“I was originally accompanying my master in Yin Yang Forest, but my master has been in a bad mood recently.

“The Yin-Yang hermit has good methods. He said that as long as time permits, he can recover completely.

“However, the whole process will take at least two to three years… My master is a person who cannot sit still. If he cannot move for two or three years, it is basically like killing him.

"He kept crying and shouting, asking me to quickly inherit his legacy.

"Otherwise, our lineage of thieves will not live up to its name."

Chu Qing's eyes rolled around when he heard her speak, and he knew that what she said was probably untrue, so he snorted:
"to be honest."

"..."

The shepherd boy trembled and glanced at Chu Qing:
"What I'm saying... is... Okay, okay, don't be like my dad.

“The main reason is that I heard from my master that my father went to the Forsaken God Valley and won’t be back for a while.

“I also heard that there are countless treasures in the Ten Absolute Caves. As a disciple of the Thief Saint, how can I let such treasures be buried in the dust?

"Of course we have to bring it out to see the light of day again!!"

Chu Qing was delighted when he heard this:
"So, you actually wanted to come in the past, but your father wouldn't let you."

The shepherd boy nodded.

“Now, your father has gone to the Forsaken Valley, and your master can’t move his legs.

"So... no one can control you, so you just let yourself go?"

Chu Qing asked again.

The shepherd boy grinned:
"Oh, you are so smart, nothing can be hidden from you... Well, meeting tonight is fate, let's drink and chat together tomorrow... Goodbye!"

After she finished speaking, she packed her things and turned to leave.

But when she turned around, she heard the sound of her internal organs. She rubbed her belly and looked back at Chu Qing and the other two:
"Before I leave, can I ask you for something to eat?

"I've been hungry for three days... If I can't get out today, I'm going to eat the old rice dumplings in the coffin."

Wenrou was surprised when she heard this:

"There are rice dumplings in the coffin? Who made them?"

"Why is this child so innocent?"

The shepherd boy smiled and said:

"The old Zongzi I'm talking about is the owner of the tomb, the corpse, not the kind that can be eaten."

"Oh."

Wenrou suddenly realized, and then had new doubts:
“Then why is it called Zongzi?”

"Forget about the rice dumplings. Give me something to eat first... I'm almost starving to death."

The shepherd boy rubbed his hands and said:

"And was mercilessly stepped on."

Gentle and slightly red face:

"I did not do it on purpose."

"Okay, come back with us first."

Chu Qing turned around and walked back with Wu Qianhuan and Wenrou.

The shepherd boy nodded in agreement. After they had walked a few steps, Chu Qing heard a thud behind him. When he turned around, he saw the shepherd boy lying on the ground, unconscious.

The three of them rushed over to check on her. Chu Qing took her pulse and discovered that the girl's pulse was extremely weak.

It's not just thirsty and hungry, it seems like he's poisoned.

Chu Qing shook his head helplessly:

"This heir of the thief saint is planning to torture himself to death."
