Chapter 1193 The Returnee's Notes 267
"There's a ghostly aura here, but there shouldn't be any ghosts nearby."
These words were spoken by Huifa. Others were unaware of his abilities, but Yuan Ming knew, and he felt a sense of relief.
Xie Ning, however, noticed something else: "The vicinity? Just how big is this tomb?"
Yuan Ming said that they landed in one of the small tomb chambers, and the ghosts must be in the tomb, but Hui Fa said that he did not sense any ghosts nearby.
Huifa paused for a moment while holding the prayer beads, but finally revealed the other side of them.
"If there are ghosts within a 10-meter radius of this point, this Buddhist bead will become hot. As for the exact size of this tomb, I am not sure."
Even Yuan Ming himself couldn't guess how big it was. When he came here last time, he thought it was huge, like a maze.
Although it wasn't his first time entering such a tomb, it was the first time he had encountered one so large. This underground place was like a large mansion, no, it would be more accurate to say a palace.
He had spent quite a while circling around, but still hadn't reached the main burial chamber. In the end, he was chased out by that thing. If he had been even a little slower, he would have lost his life.
"No matter what, we're already here, so we have to find out what's going on."
Xu Jiu's gaze fell on the small coffin. "Pry it open?"
She didn't understand any of this. She just thought that since she was already here, she might as well loot everything she could find. Even if some of the things didn't have any spiritual power, she could still sell them for money!
Xie Ning wasn't particularly interested in these things. Of course, it would be good to get something, but her main purpose was still to train.
Moreover, a vague unease crept into her heart. She looked at Huifa and said, "There are no ghosts around here, but two tomb raiders died here. If they were injured by ghosts, then the ghosts must have appeared here. Now that we're here, could it be...?"
Did it lure the ghost here? Or rather, is the ghost already on its way?
According to Yuan Ming, the ghosts here seem extremely powerful, but can they really handle them? If they are going to stay here, they should make preparations as soon as possible.
"What are you afraid of?"
She was interrupted by Xu Jiu before she could finish speaking, but everyone could guess what Xie Ning meant. Xu Jiu didn't care, "Didn't we agree from the beginning? To try to avoid that thing, but no matter how far we go, we will eventually run into it, and then we will have no choice but to confront it head-on."
Moreover, their original goal was to deal with that thing, so they didn't care when they faced it.
Snow Fox shared Xie Ning's concerns, saying, "That's not how it's said. Besides, Mu Yan probably meant that we should prepare in advance and arrange something before Yuan Ming opens the coffin, in case something happens."
"Yes."
Xie Ning nodded slightly, thinking that it was always better to be thorough just in case.
None of them had any professional tools, except for Yuan Ming, who had some experience and brought tools for opening coffins. Their landing point was quite lucky, and they didn't encounter any traps.
Yuan Ming and the others were preparing to loot the burial goods. Xie Ning had already walked around the small tomb twice, tracing the red line. Similarly, Xue Hu was also making arrangements, but he was placing different things.
Xie Ning glanced at it and realized it was bone, but it didn't look like human bone; it was probably the bone of some kind of animal.
Snow Fox walked beside Xie Ning and, seeing her curiosity, didn't mind saying a few more words, "These are pork bones."
This thing is pretty useful, and the key is that it's easy to find and cheap. After being consecrated and blessed, it can be used as a disposable little magic tool.
Sometimes it can even be used to ward off evil spirits, so it has a wide range of uses.
