Chapter 179: Finding the Key



Poor kid Zhuomu, he grew so tall for nothing, not only was he made stupid, but he also had to be threatened.

He pulled Zhuomu, who had finally calmed down, to the front hall and made him sit in a chair without saying a word.

Liang Meng stood in front of Zhuo Mu and bit his finger to activate the Chixuan Sword Seal.

He placed his bleeding and glowing fingers on Zhuo Mu's eyes and chanted a spell. Zhuo Mu slowly closed his eyes during the spell and became completely quiet.

After a while, Liang Meng moved his fingers away from Zhuomu's eyes and placed them in front of his own eyes, sweeping them straight across.

Then she saw what happened to Yacheng.

Among the three leaders, Liang Meng knew the other two, except Shiye, the son of the Lord of Wangcheng.

One is a tall and thin man like a bamboo pole, wearing a conical hat and whose face cannot be seen clearly; the other is a woman with a veil and whose appearance cannot be seen clearly, but she is absolutely charming.

The barrier of the cliff city was broken in two moves by the tall and thin man.

Liang Meng couldn't help but roll his eyes at this: What the hell is this broken barrier? With such defensive capabilities, it's a miracle that the people of Yacheng can survive to this day.

The three of them led the fully armed soldiers and marched into Yacheng. Before they had gone far, they ran into Zhuomu who had hurried over.

No matter how powerful Zhuomu's spiritual power was, he was ultimately outnumbered. Zhuomu was knocked to the ground, covered in wounds, and couldn't even get up.

Just as the bamboo-like man raised his arm to kill Zhuo Mu with his spiritual power, he was stopped by the veiled woman.

Veiled Woman: Keep him.

Bamboo Man: Keeping it will only cause endless trouble. Better to cut the grass and eradicate it.

Veiled Woman: It would be more fun to keep him.

Bamboo Man: Fun?

Veiled Woman: You forgot that Liang Meng also came here to look for something.

The bamboo man looked puzzled: If I kill him, Liang Meng will never find what she's looking for. But if I keep him, I'm afraid...

Liang Meng was very confused. It was obvious that these two knew her. But how did they know she had to come to Yacheng to find something? Moreover, from the way they spoke, it was obvious that they knew exactly what she was looking for.

How come, her actions have become so transparent?

The veiled woman rolled her eyes at the thin man with disdain: "What do you know? This is what makes it fun."

The bamboo man hesitated for a moment. Although he didn't understand what was so fun about such a hidden danger, he finally listened to the veiled woman and didn't kill Zhuomu.

Although Zhuo Mu survived, he was turned into a fool by the spiritual power of the veiled woman.

The bamboo man was confused again.

The veiled woman rolled her eyes again: This is interesting.

The thin man snorted coldly, a hoarse sound coming from his rough throat. He turned away, not bothering to pay any more attention to the veiled woman's mysterious thoughts.

While the veiled woman and the bamboo man were talking, Shiye's hands kept caressing and kneading the veiled woman's body.

He didn't care about the eyes of the rows of soldiers behind him.

Liang Meng was disgusted by this. This Young Lord of Wangcheng was a complete lecher.

Zhuo Lin was gone, and Zhuo Mu became stupid again. Shi Ye and his men entered Yacheng as if they were entering a no-man's land, and with a sharp knife, they brutally killed everyone in Yacheng.

In the entire city, only the stupid Zhuo Mu was left.

Liang Meng waved his arm angrily towards the air, and the picture disappeared immediately.

This delusional city is so hateful and cruel.

Looking down at Zhuomu who still had his eyes closed as if he was asleep, Liang Meng sighed heavily. It seemed that the key to the tomb city was not so easy to find.

Even though he didn't hold any hope, after casting a few mind-control spells and seeing Zhuomu's confused expression about the key, Liang Meng couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Zhuo Mu was woken up by a few light slaps from Liang Meng. He was now sitting on a chair, grinning at Liang Meng. If he had drooled at the corners of his lips, he would have looked like a complete idiot.

There is no time to sigh in disappointment.

Liang Meng thought that the key was in Zhuo Mansion anyway. The place was a bit big, and he would be able to find it if he searched bit by bit.

Liang Meng did what he said and started his treasure hunt in Zhuo Mansion with Zhuo Mu as his burden.

The first place to be considered is, of course, the most likely place is Zhuolin’s bedroom.

After all, among the few pieces of information Zi Ruo gave, there was one piece of information: 'Save Tomb City, find the Lord of Cliff City'.

Fortunately, although Zhuomu was stupid, he still knew where his elder brother's bedroom was.

Zhuomu brought Liang Meng to the place. Liang Meng walked forward and pushed open the door. The creaking sound of the door opening had a sense of wear and tear, as if it had been in disrepair for a long time.

Liang Meng stepped inside, and a long-stagnant smell filled his nose. Liang Meng raised his hand and fanned his nose. Zhuo Mu, who was standing behind him, imitated Liang Meng's every move and also raised his hand to fan his nose.

Liang Meng couldn't help laughing and said "idiot". Zhuo Muji cooperated and laughed twice more.

Zhuolin's bedroom was large. In addition to a table and chairs, there was also a large cabinet outside. It was filled with various jade artifacts that looked very valuable. Liang Meng didn't dare touch them, mainly because he was afraid that if he broke them, he wouldn't have the money to pay for them.

The room inside was furnished with a bed and a wardrobe, and was very clean and tidy.

But soon, thanks to Liang Meng's efforts, this neatness disappeared.

Liang Meng searched very carefully, climbing up and down the table, inside and outside the wardrobe, and in every corner of the bed and bedding. No corner was left unsearched.

Liang Meng even touched the bedding in the closet one by one.

Unfortunately, not found.

Standing in the messy room with her hands on her waist, Liang Meng looked up and down and left and right again to make sure there was nothing missed.

Then he sighed helplessly. The treasure hunt at the first stop failed.

Next, Liang Meng searched the entire Zhuo Mansion, one room after another, one courtyard after another.

It's just a matter of digging three feet into the ground.

A lot of keys were found, but Liang Meng had a hunch that these heavy, dusty, and even rusty keys in his hands had absolutely nothing to do with the Tomb City.

He threw it under the tree, making a rustling sound. Liang Meng patted his dirty hands vigorously.

Turning around, Zhuomu found a piece of dessert from somewhere and was eating it happily. Liang Meng didn't notice it when she was busy, but now she felt hungry watching Zhuomu eating. Her stomach also cooperated and growled loudly a few times.

Zhuo Mu obviously heard it too, and he looked up at Liang Meng with blinking eyes. Liang Meng's face was a little hot, and he deliberately put on a stern face and glared at Zhuo Mu fiercely.

"What are you looking at? You just eat it and don't even think of leaving a piece for me."

Liang Meng had just finished speaking when Zhuomu hurriedly reached into his robe and took out a tightly wrapped package, then handed it to Liang Meng with a silly smile.

Liang Meng took it and opened it, revealing a package of delicious snacks. Liang Meng was stunned for two seconds, then looked up and said thank you to Zhuo Mu uncomfortably.

Zhuomu was so innocent now that he couldn't tell Liang Meng's complicated emotions. When he heard Liang Meng say thank you to him, he smiled at Liang Meng foolishly again.

Liang Meng curled her lips and said nothing more. She walked to the steps not far away and sat down, eating snacks while thinking about the key.
