The corridor was dead silent, with only the sound of Lin Qiye's footsteps fading away, echoing in the narrow space.

"Crack!"

A crisp breaking sound suddenly rang out, scaring Yang Mi and Liu Tianxian so much that they screamed.

Immediately afterwards, a figure was seen retreating and breaking a branch on the ground with a "snap" sound.

"Seven nights!"

Cheng Long and Wu Jing hurried forward.

"Qiye, are you okay? What did you see?" Wang Xingxing asked with concern.

Lin Qiye calmed down and said, "Inside. There is a skeleton inside. It is nailed to the wall by a wooden stake."

When these words were spoken, everyone's heart sank.

"Oh my God! Could it be a tomb robber from ancient times? After being discovered by the owner, he was nailed to death in the tomb?" Sister Na covered her mouth in horror.

Yang Mi was so frightened that she was shaking all over, and she said in a trembling voice: "It's over, it's over, this tomb is really not clean! Let's get out quickly, before we lose our lives!"

However, Lin Qiye shook his head and said, "No, since we have come this far, there is no reason to retreat. Although the skeleton is scary, it also shows that we are probably on the right path to the tomb. If you want to find the treasure, you have to take some risks, right?"

Wu Jing was also full of admiration when he heard this: "As expected of Qiye, you are so courageous! With your words, I feel relieved. No matter if there is a flood or corpses everywhere, as long as we are united, nothing can be overcome!"

Cheng Long nodded in agreement: "That's right! Everyone cheer up and follow Qiye closely. Don't fall behind."

Wang Xingxing and Na Jie gradually calmed down and regained their courage.

Only Yang Mi and Liu Tianxian still looked terrified, holding onto Lin Qiye tightly.

Lin Qiye smiled helplessly, patted their shoulders gently, and comforted them: "Don't be afraid, I'm here. Just follow me later, and don't run around. If you encounter danger, I will protect your safety in the first place."

The two women then nodded reluctantly, their expressions slightly relaxed.

[Fuck! I didn’t expect that there would be people buried alive in this ancient tomb?! This is really cruel!]

[That's right! I can tell at a glance that the tomb owner was definitely not a good person when he was alive. He tortured his slaves even after his death. How cruel!]

[Well, in ancient times, slavery was normal. The master could do whatever he wanted, so how could the slaves have any human rights?]

[That being said, nailing a living person to the wall is too cruel, isn't it? Even after death, he shouldn't suffer this kind of torture!]

[That's right! Look how scared Yang Mi and Tian Xian are. Their faces are pale. I think they are even more pitiful than the skeletons on the wall!]

[Tsk, with their little courage, wouldn’t they be scared to death if they entered such a tomb? Let them get out quickly, so as not to hold back the main force!]

[Get lost! Sister Mi and the Fairy are the mainstays of our show! Without them, what's the point of this tomb?]

[Haha, pillars? I think they are just bean sprouts at best! In terms of courage and magnanimity, how can they compare to us stars? They are real warriors, and they never cried out in fear from beginning to end!]

[That’s right! Xingxing’s calm demeanor despite the catastrophe is simply stunning! If it were any other female celebrity, they would have been scared to death!]

[Tsk tsk tsk, that posture is exactly the same as Inspector Lin! I think these two are definitely having an affair!]

[Go away, stop talking nonsense! She is an innocent woman, did you take the wrong medicine?]

[Damn it, it's already this critical moment, and you're still gossiping here? Pay attention to the plot! Didn't you see that Inspector Lin has already stood up and is ready to continue exploring?]

The audience was talking one after another, discussing the horrifying scene.

Some sighed over what happened to the Skeleton, some looked down on the cowardice of Yang Mi and Tianxian, and some even began to imagine the scandal between Lin Qiye and Wang Xingxing.

At this time, the expedition team has regrouped and is heading towards the unknown darkness ahead again.

Lin Qiye was still at the forefront, looking around vigilantly, ready to deal with any unexpected crisis. Wu Jing and Cheng Long were also on edge, fully armed, and stayed by his side.

Although Wang Xingxing and Na Jie looked solemn, they remained calm and composed, and walked steadily.

Yang Mi and Liu Tianxian looked back every few steps, trembling with fear, afraid that some terrifying thing would jump out again.

The group walked deeper and deeper along the corridor.

The earthy smell became stronger and stronger, mixed with a faint smell of blood, which was nauseating.

Damp water stains began to seep out of the walls, and green moss spread out in patches, looking extremely strange.

“Click, click.”

A strange sound suddenly came from the front.

Everyone's heart tightened and they stopped at the same time.

"What's that noise again?" Sister Na swallowed nervously.

Lin Qiye looked solemn. He held the hilt of the knife with one hand and signaled everyone to be quiet.

He took a step towards the source of the sound, and the beam of light from the flashlight swayed in the gloomy corridor.

"careful!"

Wang Xingxing suddenly reminded.

I saw a black shadow rushing out from the side and rushing straight towards Lin Qiye!
Lin Qiye reacted very quickly, raising his hand and waving it with a flash of cold light.

“Puff!”

The sharp blade cut through the flesh, making a teeth-grinding sound.

A huge bat fell down with its wings still twitching violently.

"Oh my God! Such a big bat, it scared me to death!" Yang Mi screamed and almost collapsed to the ground.

Liu Tianxian’s face turned pale, and she hugged Lin Qiye’s arm tightly, gasping for breath.

"Don't be afraid, it's just a bat." Lin Qiye comforted him, using the tip of his knife to pick open the bat's body and examine it carefully.

He frowned and muttered to himself: "Strange, this bat is too big. And it seems a little different."

Wu Jing also came forward and took a closer look. Suddenly, he exclaimed, "Oh my God, look! There seems to be some pattern on the wings of this bat!"

Upon hearing this, everyone quickly gathered around.

I saw some strange patterns faintly emerging on the huge wings, interweaving into strange patterns and emitting a faint glow.

"What is this? I've never seen a bat like this." Cheng Long scratched his head in confusion.

"Something's wrong. It's very wrong." Lin Qiye's face was gloomy, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind.

"Everyone, be careful. Don't take it lightly. The bats in this tomb may not be simple. Who knows, there may be something strange. We must be vigilant and be ready to fight at any time."

As he spoke, he looked into the deep darkness ahead.

Everyone nodded in understanding and followed Lin Qiye's steps, continuing to advance into the depths of the unknown.

The corridor became narrower and narrower, and the dirt above our heads kept falling down, with misty dust blowing in our faces.

The ground beneath my feet became muddy and gave off a disgusting stench. (End of this chapter)
