Chapter 140 Entering the Tomb



"Lady Liu Fei was the Dragon Emperor's beloved, exceptionally intelligent, and her cunning was no less than that of a man! Unfortunately, she passed away at the young age of thirty. Because of this, the Dragon Emperor devoted himself to war, pursuing conquest throughout his life, and established his own country, which is now the Heavenly Dragon Kingdom..."

As she said this, a hint of sarcasm appeared on her lips!

"In just a few hundred years, the Tianlong Kingdom was divided up again, which led to the present-day Qi Kingdom!"

Her people were descendants of that lady. In order to protect a so-called treasure that they themselves did not even know about, they ultimately brought about the extermination of their clan. Unexpectedly, she fell into a black hole and saw this so-called tomb.

Qin Qing nodded after listening. As expected, it was an alternate history. She had never heard of Lady Liu Fei, let alone a tomb!

Tian Tian reached out and touched the stone door, her heart churning with resentment. For these inanimate objects, her entire clan had guarded them for generations, and now she was the only one left, clinging to life, her existence a living hell…

As she gripped the stone's edges with increasing paleness and force, a sense of doubt flashed through my mind. Looking at the terrifying scars on her face, I had a vague idea of ​​what was going on.

"Would you like to go in and take a look?"

Tian Tian was taken aback, and turned to look at her with a complicated expression, her eyes showing a hint of surprise. How did she know?

Qin Qing simply shook her head, looking knowing. She was already so unhappy when she was telling a story, let alone the intense hatred emanating from her right now. Even if she were blind, she should be able to see it!

This tomb must be related to the extermination of her clan!

Tian Tian looked up, her beautiful eyes fixed on the sealed stone gate, her heart filled with resentment! She gritted her teeth and said.

"Go in! Of course I want to go in! I want to see what this treasure they've guarded with their lives for hundreds of years looks like!"

Peony, who was listening from the side, was completely confused but only roughly understood what they meant. She asked out of curiosity.

"How do we open this door? It's too heavy; we probably can't lift it at all."

Upon hearing this, Qin Qing also began to study the stone gate. Due to the perennial dampness and darkness, a thick layer of moss had long since grown around it. Perhaps because the surrounding area was made of huge rocks, the top was covered with dust and weeds growing from the cracks in the rocks...

There was nothing else superfluous, so the carvings on the stone gate became highly suspicious!

The above content is roughly about a three-headed bird fighting with a small dragon. Although it's a fight, it looks like they're playing, and you can't make out any words or meaning at all...

Could there be some kind of secret agency involved?

After she tiptoed up, she reached out and touched the eyes of the three-headed bird and the little dragon one by one, but still to no avail!

Seeing her strange and ungraceful posture, Tian Tian couldn't help but say something.

"That Lady Liu Fei was no ordinary woman; the tomb she designed could not be opened by ordinary means!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Qing quickly jumped down, gave an awkward laugh, and then shifted her gaze to the moss on both sides. She picked up a piece of rotten wood and began to clean it. Seeing this, the little ones beside her got up and came to help. The group was panting heavily, and soon, a large patch of moss fell off, revealing the clear veins underneath…

It was a huge three-headed bird, with each head looking in a different direction. Apart from these differences, it was almost identical to the carvings next to it.

Qin Qing, not believing in superstition, cautiously probed the three-headed bird's eyes but found nothing unusual. So she ran to the other side and started scratching at the wall. After she had painstakingly cleaned up the moss, she finally saw what the outside of the stone gate looked like!

The walls and stone gates, covered with carvings, look very grand. In particular, the three-headed birds on the two side walls are perfectly symmetrical, and the graphic design is very creative. It is really not easy for the ancients to do this! In addition, it has remained undamaged for hundreds of years, which is truly amazing.

Despite her amazement, she still found nothing. Just as she was about to give up, Tian Tian stood up, leaning on her wooden cane, gently bit her finger, and dripped the blood onto the eyeball of the middle three-headed bird…

Soon, the blood stained the carving, and the three-headed bird seemed to have real eyes, appearing lifelike and vivid. Strangely, the blood that Tian Tian had poured in did not overflow; instead, it caused the eyes to slowly move...

The group was stunned by what they saw. After her initial surprise, Qin Qing immediately realized that there must be a roller-like device behind the eyeballs. Once there was something to lubricate it, the device would be activated, making the three-headed bird's eyes appear to move.

At this moment, a rumbling sound suddenly rang out from inside the stone gate, and the earth seemed to tremble slightly, as if an old machine had started operating again.

"Click-clack!"

Perhaps because it hadn't been opened for too long, the sound continued for a long time, pausing two or three times in between, before the stone door finally moved, and the heavy stone wall began to slowly move upward!

Qin Qing fell silent, looking at her dirty hands, and realizing that she had just spent half a day doing useless work while the person in question watched her act foolishly...

Pshaw! She's not being stupid!

Then, seeing the stone gate slowly rise, Qin Qing couldn't help but be shocked! The huge stone gate in front of him probably weighed several tons, and even with current technology, it would require machines to lift it; it was probably impossible for a person to do it by strength alone.

At this moment, the stone door finally opened completely, and a putrid, rotten smell wafted in, carrying a slight chill...

Qin Qing instinctively covered her mouth and nose, and quickly pulled the people at the door aside. After all, the air in a place that hadn't circulated for a long time might have some strange things mutating inside. If she inhaled them and got sick, who would she complain to?

After a while, seeing nothing unusual, they peered over and were met with a deep tunnel with gaping abysses on either side, as if one careless fall would mean certain death!

The long tunnel in the middle could be vaguely seen to its end, where there was a disc-shaped platform with something on it, though it was not very clear.

"Follow me!"

After Tian Tian finished speaking, she walked forward with her cane, her expression cold and stern, as if she was not afraid of the abyss on both sides at all. Qin Qing hesitated for a moment, but decided to let the children stand here and go in to take a look herself. After all, she was also curious and wanted to see just how powerful the legendary Madam Liu Fei really was!

Xiao Muyue naturally disagreed, but Qin Qing insisted!

"Don't say you're not afraid. Nobody knows if there's any danger inside. You're still too young. If something happens, you won't even be able to run away. Don't worry, I'll be out soon. Don't forget! Grandma is very powerful!"

Hearing this, the two little ones had no choice but to agree, no matter how unwilling they were. Peony and Qin Zifeng watched them from the doorway. While Tian Tian wasn't paying attention, Qin Qing reached out and handed them three bottles of water, three boxes of self-heating hot pot, and a lighter...
