The white tiger shrank beneath Lin Han, then jumped onto his shoulder, watching the valley vigilantly. After waiting for a moment and seeing no major movement, Lin Han walked into the valley.
Lin Han disappeared for a stick of incense time, and five figures appeared at the entrance of the valley.
If Lin Han were there, he would definitely recognize one of them, the stall owner who sold him the bronze ware.
The five people hesitated for a moment, restrained their breath, and followed into the valley.
Inside the valley is a ruin, with collapsed houses half-buried in the mountains, broken altars, and totems that have long been weathered and corroded.
All signs indicate that this was once a relic.
Remaining words can be seen from the broken vessels in the ruins, but they are completely incomprehensible.
The five people were familiar with the route and carefully restrained their breathing as they went deeper into the ruins.
Soon, a cave appeared in front of them.
They had been to this cave several times.
Judging from the ruins' state of destruction, it's likely that the mountain fell on the tribe where they were located, causing the disaster. This hole was likely dug by a survivor.
Because there is a building buried under this mountain.
"Go in, or wait for him to come out?"
"The situation inside is unknown. I think we can wait for him to come out. He can't escape anyway."
"We have more people, so we shouldn't be afraid. I don't think his cultivation level is very high."
"He understands 'witch language'. If he opens that door, I'm afraid all the good things will be taken away." said the stall owner.
"Come in."
The leader of the five came to a conclusion.
…
Zheng Yang took the lead, moving forward cautiously, not daring to make any noise.
They had discovered the entrance to the Wu Clan ruins a long time ago, but because it was too deep in the Tianshan Mountains, it had not been discovered by other players.
There was a building at the bottom of the cave, which was blocked by a stone door with words on it. They couldn't understand them and tried their best but couldn't open the door.
So they came up with a solution, which was to sell utensils from the ruins, which had written records on them. Players who could understand those records might be able to find a way to open the stone door.
Today Lin Han came to buy their bronze utensils, which surprised them.
There are witch characters on the bronze vessel, which is the only value of Bronze Qiming. He left a spiritual mark on Lin Han, and anyone with a lower cultivation level than him would not be able to discover it.
The fact that the other party came to this ruin as soon as he got the bronze vessel made them even more certain that the other party recognized the Wu clan's writing and that there must be treasures here.
"Be careful, don't let him find you." Zheng Yang, the leader, reminded.
"How far away is the spiritual mark from us when we sense it?" asked the stall owner.
"Hmm? Very close."
"Don't get too close. If he finds you and runs away, won't all your efforts be wasted?"
"How close is very close?"
"About one meter." A flat voice came from behind.
"So close?"
"Who said one meter?"
"I didn't say that."
"Not me."
“…”
In the cave, the five people who were whispering to each other felt something was wrong. They turned around in horror and saw Lin Han standing calmly behind them.
In an instant, the expressions of the five people changed drastically. They hurriedly drew their daggers and looked at Lin Han vigilantly. Spiritual power was brewing in their bodies. If anything went wrong, the war would break out in an instant.
"I'm curious, why did you bring me here?" Lin Han asked with a smile.
The five people looked at each other.
Zheng Yang stepped forward and squinted at Lin Han.
"Who are you?"
"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is what's in this cave."
"Can you understand the Wu language?"
"Are you talking about the words on the bronze vessel?" Lin Han took out the bronze vessel, took a look at it and said, "I can indeed understand the words inside."
"Council?"
"What do you mean?" Lin Han asked with narrowed eyes.
"There is a building under the cave, but it is blocked by a stone door. We don't recognize these words and can't find a way to open the door." Zheng Yang said vigilantly.
"Why didn't you say it earlier? There's no need for intrigue." Lin Han smiled lightly: "We can cooperate, but if there is anything I need in it, I will choose it first."
"Why?" one of the five men asked.
"Then you won't cooperate?" Lin Han asked.
The five people didn't say anything, and Lin Han turned around and wanted to leave.
"Fellow Daoist, wait a minute." Zheng Yang called out to Lin Han, "There really is something good in there. We can split it up."
"Fifty-five?"
"Seven three."
"Then I'll go."
"64, okay, 55, 55." Zheng Yang called out to Lin Han who was walking out of the cave.
Seeing the other party stop, Zheng Yang breathed a sigh of relief.
"Lead the way." Lin Han turned around and said.
Zheng Yang waved his hand, and the five of them continued deeper. The stall owner led the way, while Zheng Yang, the leader, followed behind, keeping a constant eye on Lin Han. The others also kept a watchful eye in the dark.
Lin Han, on the other hand, was very calm and composed, as if he was just sightseeing rather than exploring the wilderness.
The cave continued to go deeper and deeper. Six people and a little white tiger walked for about half an hour before they stopped in front of a large cave.
A building is embedded in the stone, with a stone door and various magical totems on both sides, as well as some witch characters.
This building doesn't look like it was excavated and built, but rather like it was crushed by a giant mountain. However, the mountain didn't crush the temple, and after thousands of years, the building seemed to be embedded in it.
Lin Han glanced at the witch clan characters written on the stone gate.
Ancestral Witch Temple.
The deity enshrined inside is the ancestor of the witch clan: Dijiang, whose true form is a singing and dancing bird.
In addition to the text on the stone gate, there is also a stone tablet next to it, which is also engraved with the Wu clan text, recording why this temple is here.
