337 The Female Corpse Has Moved Away
âI know. Master must have seen more of this than I have.â Wen Le did not care about Su Mengâs words.
If he was given another chance, he would still choose to take this path. not to mention other things. This path of earning money, as long as one succeeded once, that was a level that others could not reach even if they worked hard for several lifetimes.
Just like this time, even though he was possessed, he had money. He could use the money to ask Su Meng to help him solve the problem. The rest of the money could still be used for the rest of his life.
The two of them talked as they walked in, while Wei Ting followed behind without a word. He didnât just use the flashlight to light the road, but from time to time, he would shine it around him and above his head.
The road here was winding, and there was more than one. Su Meng had no doubt that without Wen Leâs guidance, it would take her a lot of effort to find the right path with so many forks.
âAre these forks dead ends?â Su Meng asked Wen Le. She had heard that some large tombs had traps set up, but she did not know if it was true.
âMaster, you canât go through those forks. Some of them are dead ends and we can go back, but some of them have traps. Youâll die if you go through them. â
âFrom what youâre saying, youâve missed?â
Wen Le suddenly stopped in his tracks, turned around, and lifted the hem of his shirt. Then, he shone the flashlight for Su Meng. âI got this scar at that time. I wasnât paying attention and went the wrong way. As a result, I fell into a trap. It was too dangerous back then. Fortunately, I was lucky and managed to survive.â
He didnât go into the details. It wasnât a good memory. He just needed to learn from the lesson. There was no need to keep remembering such a terrible thing.
Su Meng looked at Wen Leâs stomach with the help of the flashlight. There was a scar that was as wide as a thumb and as long as a palm. It was a scary sight.
After Su Meng finished looking, Wen Le put down his clothes and continued walking.
The cave was very narrow at first, but it became wider as they walked deeper into the cave. At the end, the three of them could walk side by side.
After walking for about ten minutes, the three of them finally arrived at the entrance of the tomb. It was an open space, and Su Meng suddenly felt that everything was clear.
The walls of the entrance to the tomb were embedded with night-luminescent pearls the size of quail eggs. The faint green light gathered together and illuminated the place.
âThis wall of night-luminescent pearls should be worth a lot of money. Why didnât you guys make a move on them at that time?â Although night-luminescent pearls were not rare, and the ones here were not big, there were a lot of them. They could be sold for a lot of money in wholesale.
âWe canât take this kind of illuminating thing, no matter how valuable it is. This is the rule. Iâve thought about taking these before, but my friend said that they were worthless and unlucky, so we didnât touch them. Now that I think about it, itâs a good thing I didnât move at that time, or my condition wouldâve been even more serious.â
Wen Le knew his own limits. Su Meng nodded and said, âIndeed, itâs right that you didnât touch these things.â
This kind of thing was used to guide the dead souls. Not only was it bad luck, but it would also be fatal if he really took it.
âMaster, as long as we open this door, weâll be in the tomb where the female corpse is. Then, can I open it?â Wen Le did not act rashly and came to ask for Su Mengâs opinion.
âWait a moment, let me take a look.â
Su Meng took out the compass and a yellow talisman. She drew an incantation on it with a cinnabar pen, then burned the talisman with a lighter and scattered the ashes on the compass.
After waiting for a while, the compass did not move. Su Meng then said, âItâs done. Open it. Remember what I just said. No matter what happens, do not take out the talisman on your chest.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Wen Le promised, âDonât worry, Master. My greatest virtue is that I treasure my life. For the sake of my life, I will definitely listen to you.â
Upon saying that, Wen Le walked to the side of the door and placed his hand on one of the candle tables. He then turned it with force and the door of the tomb slowly opened.
Even though Wen Le had already mentally prepared himself, he was still shocked when he saw the situation inside the tomb. He even took a few steps back and lost his balance before falling to the ground.
âShe, she, why is she here!â Wen Le pointed at the entrance of the tomb and was so flustered that he almost could not speak.
âWhatâs going on?â Su Meng frowned as she looked into the tomb. It was a weird feeling, as if something invisible was moving quickly in the tomb and there was a cold wind blowing.
This place was very strange, but she had just tested it with the compass, and the compass clearly did not respond.
Wen Le stammered, âThat, that female corpse. She, she urged us to leave. We clearly threw her next to the coffin. But, she, she urged us to leave. How did she come to the door?!â
