As a fake half-demon, Yue Jiuling feels that living in the human realm is actually pretty good. However, this is only true if she can retrieve her original body and separated soul. There's no c...

Chapter 163 The Passage

"Ah! How could you all do this?!"

"Hey, what are you doing? We don't want to go in!"

The cave was pitch black, and nothing could be seen clearly. It also looked quite terrifying, so when Yue Jiu Nian and Yue Jiu Zai were pushed inside, they pretended to be very scared. They screamed and tried to escape, but Lao Hei and the others stopped them and forced them inside.

"You all get inside! Hmph, don't even think about running away. If you don't want to die, you'd better behave yourselves!"

Old Hei held a dagger in one hand and pointed it at Yue Jiuzai and the other woman, forcing them to walk into the cave.

Jiang Yan walked in the middle of their group. When he saw the situation, he showed an expression of "I knew it". In fact, when Lao Hei left Yue Jiu Nian and the others behind, he had already guessed that Lao Hei and the others would not be so kind. He wanted to remind Yue Jiu Nian and the others to leave, but he never had the chance.

After seeing the dagger in Lao Hei's hand, Yue Jiu Nian and Yue Jiu Zai pretended to be frightened. They huddled together, trembling with fear, afraid that they would be killed.

"Brother, what are you doing? Please let us go. We'll give you all the money we have. Please let us go."

Yue Jiu was terrified. She rummaged through her backpack and took out all her money, trying to beg them to let her go.

The same was true for Yue Jiuzai. She looked terrified and, along with her best friend, tremblingly pulled out her wallet and other valuables, pleading, "My money, my money, it's all here. Please let us go."

Old Hei and the others turned on their flashlights as soon as they entered the cave. They seemed to be very familiar with the cave, and they led Yue Jiu Nian and the other person around with ease.

"Come on, who gave us your money? We don't even want your little bit of money. Come on, get inside!"

Old Hei didn't even glance at Yue Jiu's money; he just forced them forward with a menacing look on his face: "Go inside. You can't escape. Behave yourselves, or you might still live. If you dare to play any tricks, I'll kill you right now!"

Hearing this, Yue Jiu and Zai naturally became much more obedient. The two of them started holding hands and took small, very scared steps forward.

Jiang Yan followed closely behind Lao Wu, with Uncle Zhao and his group behind him, and Lao Hei's companions in front of him. He couldn't run away or get close to Yue Jiu Nian and the others. He had originally wanted to go find Yue Jiu Nian and the others during lunch that morning, but Lao Wu discovered him and wouldn't let him leave their side. He even had to have someone accompany him to the toilet, and Jiang Yan wasn't allowed to act alone.

Uncle Zhao is actually the same type of person as Lao Hei. When he saw Lao Hei leave behind two women last night, he guessed Lao Hei's intentions, but he didn't say anything and acted as if it was none of his business.

The cave is actually quite ordinary; it's just a slightly deeper, ordinary cave with nothing inside. It's like a dug-out tunnel, completely empty.

After walking for more than ten minutes, Yue Jiuzai felt something was wrong, because she found that the cave was too ordinary and did not look like a tomb.

She simply couldn't understand why Lao Hei had brought them here. They were supposed to be 'scouts,' so why did they end up in an ordinary cave?

Just as Yue Jiuzai was looking around in confusion and slightly distracted, Yue Jiunian suddenly squeezed her hand. Yue Jiuzai reacted, looked at Yue Jiunian's face, and then saw a mouth 'channel'.

Yue Jiu Nian opened her mouth and made the shape of 'passage' towards Yue Jiu Zai. Yue Jiu Zai immediately understood that this cave was not a real tomb, but just a passage leading to the cemetery.

When Yue Jiu Nian came in, she also felt that something was wrong with this place. Those people seemed to be very familiar with this cave, as if they had been here countless times. But if they came in here often, why would they need someone to scout the way? So she guessed that this cave might not be a cemetery, but a passage leading to a cemetery, which was why these people were so familiar with it.

What Yue Jiu couldn't understand was that they clearly knew the location of the tomb, so why did they only start digging now? It couldn't be because they lacked a few scouts, could it? That was impossible. Usually, once a tomb was discovered, most of them would rush to dig it up without hesitation, unless there was a problem.

Thinking about this, Yue Jiu Nian began to suspect that the tomb they were going into this time might be a very dangerous one. However, the more dangerous it was, the more excited she became, because danger meant there would be more treasures inside!

Yue Jiu Nian became increasingly excited as she thought about it, to the point that she was about to burst out laughing. Yue Jiu Zai, who was standing to the side, saw her sly smile and her expression became somewhat complicated. She frowned and wondered: What's wrong with Jiu Nian? Why is she so excited? Has she gone mad?

Yue Jiuzai looked at Yue Jiunian with a complicated expression, his eyes filled with "Are you stupid?"

Yue Jiu Nian noticed the look in her friend's eyes, secretly rolled her eyes at her, and then continued walking without saying a word.

The cave soon came to an end, but Lao Hei and the others did not let Yue Jiu Nian and the others stop. Instead, they made them continue walking until they reached the mountain wall at the back before stopping.
