Chapter 472: Gold Foil in the Tomb

 It stands to reason that Ye Bai has seen this kind of scene countless times and would not be moved by it at all. However, after Ye Bai opened his strange pupils, he still couldn't help but frown deeply.

I saw a monster condensed by black energy, preying on the wandering resentful souls in the mountain stream where bones were piled up.

This monster looks like a glutton, with a big mouth and long fangs. Its skin is not scales, but twisted and struggling human faces.

This was the first time Ye Bai encountered this kind of ghost that was directly condensed into a physical form. He had only seen similar records in the Sutra Pavilion in Longhu Mountain before.

Ghosts are invisible and use their essence to condense into bodies. If a living person touches them, they will die instantly!

However, for evil people who are good at raising ghosts, this gluttonous ghost spirit is a rare treasure.

The gluttonous ghost spirit raised its head and glanced at Ye Bai and Ji Feng, but ignored them and lay down on the dead bones to take a nap to digest the resentful souls it had just devoured.

Ye Bai didn't feel anything. After Ji Feng was swept by the Taotie ghost, his whole body trembled, as if he was being targeted by something terrifying.

Ji Feng asked uneasily: "Master Ye, what are you looking at? Is there... something down here?"

Ye Bai smiled and said: "There is something there, but don't worry, it won't come up. Living people are not attracted to it."

Ye Bai was also enlightened. No wonder the system prompted low-level danger. It turned out that this ghost would not come out at all.

Perhaps for it, the resentful souls born on the withered bones are more delicious.

"Keep walking." Ye Bai gently crossed the six to seven meter wide cliff.

Ji Feng glanced at the dead bones in the mountain stream more than ten meters deep, stepped back and took a run, and also jumped to the other side.

The corridor ahead was quite long, and Ye Bai was bored, so he asked: "Didn't you receive any training in going to the tomb in the Wang family?"

"My father protected me too well when I was a child, but later I became wild-tempered and undisciplined." Ji Feng thought for a while, told the truth, and then talked about many things from his childhood.

Ye Bai shook his head slightly. To be honest, he didn't like Qinglong, but now when he evaluated Qinglong as a father from Ji Feng's perspective, it was completely different.

While talking, Ye and Bai walked out of the corridor, and saw another square bronze door embedded in the mountain in front of them.

There are three small circular holes on this bronze door, which obviously require something to be put in before it can be opened.

Ji Feng looked at the shape of the small hole and suddenly said: "Master Ye, it should take three resentment stones to open it."

"Whose body is the stone of resentment?"

"It's all because of Wales who entered the island this time. This person is a core member of the Holy Trinity organization. He takes the Stone of Resentment very seriously, and I have no chance to come into contact with it."

Ye Bai thought for a while, and Wales probably led his men to massacre the natives on the island, who knows where. It is simply unrealistic to use the Resentment Stone to open the mechanism.

"If there is no stone, then we can only use tricks to break it open."

Ye Bai came to the bronze door and gently ran his slender fingers over the cracks of the door, feeling the structure inside.

Judging from the bronze entrance door at the entrance of the tomb, the mechanism for setting up this bronze door also came from the Central Plains, and the mechanism principles are similar.

The Faqiu finger has always been the best weapon to crack the mechanism.

However, before that, we still need to find out the principle of opening the door.

Ye Bai thought for a moment and realized that there were three small holes in the door, which meant that the three resentment stones were the keys.

However, the shapes of the three Resentment Stones are different, which means that the three Resentment Stones must be stuffed into the corresponding positions to crack the mechanism.

It's a pity that Ye Bai has only seen two of the resentment stones, and the shape and rules of the third resentment stone are unknown. Otherwise, he could try to cut out three stones of the same shape and stuff them in.

Seeing Ye Bai trying in front of the door, Ji Feng, who was in the dark, was a little restless and wanted to step forward to help. As soon as he took a step, a stone slab suddenly sank, and he was stunned.

Needless to say, he also knows how to step on the trap in the tomb.

Ye Bai glanced back and said: "After letting go, quickly retreat to the entrance of the corridor."

"Master Ye, what about you?" Ji Feng said nervously.

"Don't worry, even if you die, nothing will happen to me."

Although the words are ugly, they are true.

So Ji Feng quickly let go and retreated. At the same time, the floor in front of the bronze door quickly collapsed, falling one after another like domino blocks, falling into the bottomless abyss.

Look at Ye Bai again, his feet are in front of the bronze door, and the two fingers of his left hand are inserted into the two small holes, forming a sixty-degree angle with the bronze door.

Ye Bai inserted his right index finger into the last small hole and said: "Don't follow the road behind, just stay here and wait for me."

After speaking, the mechanism inside the square bronze door had been cracked by Ye Bai, and the bronze door suddenly opened.

Ye Bai's figure also disappeared inside the bronze door.

Ji Feng looked at the distance between the corridor and the bronze door. It was more than ten meters long. Even if he speeded up, he couldn't rush through it. So it was better to just wait here with peace of mind as Mr. Ye said.

Behind the door, Ye Bai walked several hundred meters and saw a wooden hollow tower, twelve stories high.

It seems that the number twelve is of great significance to Himihu.

Thousands of years have passed, and the structure of the tower is still very stable, with no signs of decay.

Ye Bai stepped onto the first floor of the tower and saw Himihu's coffin.

The coffin is also made of wood and is placed on a high platform in the center. The surface is smeared with antiseptic tree oil and has many strange symbols carved on it.

The walls around the tower are covered with murals, and part of them has fallen off, but the parts that have not fallen off can still be seen. The murals record the scene of Himihu unifying the Yamatai Kingdom.

Ye Bai also noticed several distinctive murals.

Himihu seems to be able to summon ghosts to kill enemies.

A total of three ghosts appeared on the mural, with different images, but they were all extremely ferocious, and they were obviously carefully painted by the painter.

After reading the mural, Ye Bai walked around in front of the coffin again and was not in a hurry to open the museum.

There are several more floors on the wooden tower, so let’s finish them first.

So Ye Bai walked up to the second floor. This floor was filled with sacrificial objects, mostly animal bones and human bones. They were worthless and had no dark energy. Ye Bai had no interest in them.

On the third floor, funerary objects, pottery pots, and bronzes began to appear... There were not many in number, but they were still of some value. After Ye Bai absorbed the dark energy points, he threw them all into the space.

All the way up to the ninth floor were funerary objects. There were more than 200 pieces in total, which increased Ye Bai's nether energy points by more than 2,800 points, which was considered a small gain.

But what surprised Ye Bai was that as he went to higher floors, artifacts from the Yuan Dynasty and Song Dynasty of China gradually appeared among the funerary objects.

But Bei Mihu was a figure in the late Han Dynasty. According to the "Edict of the Queen of the Kingdom of Wei", at that time, the two emperors Huan and Ling were in power in China, and Cao Cao, the ancestor of Mojin Xiaowei, was not born.

How could later cultural relics appear in Himihu’s tomb?

Ye Bai thought slightly.

The only explanation is that although Himihu was buried after his death, there were always a group of tomb-keepers who kept bringing in contemporary burial objects.

This is also consistent with the reason why descendants’ burial objects are found only on high floors.

Although the wooden tower has twelve floors, it is extremely narrow after the tenth floor, and neither anyone nor anything can fit inside.

The eleventh floor is also empty.
