Chapter 167 The Resurrection of the Legion
Feng Tianning frowned and told Pei Duyan about the Fangcun Realm.
"Are you saying that they were all sucked into this so-called Fangcun Realm?"
Feng Tianning nodded, in return he received an indescribable look.
"Why am I okay?"
"Could it be that this Fangcun Realm still practices discrimination?"
Feng Tianning burst out laughing, then thought carefully about his words.
She suddenly thought of the strange aura that Pei Duyan had when she first met him. Perhaps it was because of this.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Pei Duyan turned and asked:
"So what should we do now?"
Feng Tianning pondered for a moment:
"The Fangcun Realm isn't particularly dangerous. They are all cultivators, so nothing will happen even if they go in."
"To save them, we need to find the gourd. I guess it's hidden in the tomb below."
"So we should continue now?" Pei Duyan took over her words.
Feng Tianning nodded and walked into the passage with Pei Duyan.
"The thing down there is very dangerous. It's a whole army of stone statues."
When Pei Duyan heard about the Stone Statue Corps, his eyes lit up instantly, his face full of excitement:
"This is a great archaeological discovery!"
"Inspector Feng, take me down quickly."
Feng Tianning was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect him to be so excited. She originally planned to go down first to find a way to leave, and then take Pei Duyan down.
Although she could not sense any resentment from the stone statue army, she always had a bad premonition in her heart.
If they go down, these stone statues will suddenly turn into dumplings that can hurt people, which will be troublesome.
It would be fine if Feng Tianning was alone, but if Pei Duyan was brought along, he might not be able to escape.
Looking at Pei Duyan's excited and slightly red face, she couldn't say the words of refusal.
"Okay, hold on to me when you get down, and don't move around."
Pei Duyan nodded hurriedly, his eyes full of enthusiasm for archaeology.
Feng Tianning grabbed the back of his collar, told him to hold on tight, and then jumped directly into the tomb chamber below with Pei Duyan.
After a few minutes, just when Pei Duyan was about to ask why they hadn't landed yet, they stepped on the soldier's head again.
"Feng... Inspector Feng, what is this under my feet?"
"Isn't it a stone statue? Why is it soft?"
Pei Duyan's voice trembled a little. This feeling was not like what she had just said. Instead, it felt like stepping on a living person's head.
Pei Duyan suddenly thought of his physical condition that he would rise from the dead if his coffin was opened, and he couldn't help but shudder.
"Inspector Feng, are these stone statues down there going to turn into zombies?"
Feng Tianning shook his head, but then thought about how he couldn't see in the dark, so he spoke calmly:
"That's what happened when I came down just now. Don't worry."
"They are just stone statues, not corpses, so they won't turn into corpses."
"Unless we do something to anger them or step on some trap, we'll be attacked. We're safe for now."
As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Tianning heard some noise under his feet.
She looked down and suddenly found that it was no longer pitch black below, but was emitting countless green lights.
Pei Duyan also plucked up the courage to take a look, and suddenly found that those green lights were pairs of eyes.
"Inspector Feng, something seems wrong down there." His voice began to tremble.
Feng Tianning frowned. She was clearly fine when she came down just now. Could it be true that as Xuan Gou Chen and the others said, Pei Duyan's physique was so special?
"Samadhi True Fire."
The flame in her hand illuminated the surroundings a little brighter, and she then realized that the stone statue below had turned completely around and was staring at them straight.
"No, this is not a stone statue."
The scene in front of him was completely different from what Feng Tianning had just seen. The clay and porcelain pieces on the stone statue were sliding off bit by bit, revealing the body inside.
"How is this possible?" Pei Duyan murmured.
"I've seen stone statues like this before. They're mostly filled with mud. How could there be people inside?"
"Could it be that the stone statues in this ancient tomb were made of living people..."
Pei Duyan's voice had weakened.
Until the porcelain pieces fell off completely, the stone statues suddenly moved and approached them step by step.
Pei Duyan suddenly felt as if something was grabbing his calf. He looked down and almost screamed.
The person under his feet was a living person. Except for the pale skin and black eyes, he was no different from a human being. And they were standing on the head of this "person".
"This is not a stone statue, it's clearly a stone man." He said as he swung his legs desperately, trying to break free from the stone man's hands.
But no matter how hard he tried, the cold hand on his leg seemed to be stuck, not moving at all, and even exerted a subtle force to pull him down.
"Detective Feng!" Pei Duyan was about to cry at this moment. He had visited many ancient tombs, big and small, but this was the first time he saw such a scene.
Feng Tianning's eyes flashed and he summoned the Hongmeng Holy Sword.
A sword energy shot towards the "stone man" who was holding Pei Duyan's leg. The next moment, the stone man suddenly turned into a wisp of black smoke and disappeared on the ground.
They lost their support and fell to the place where the stone man had originally stood.
The stone men that were still moving around seemed to have smelled the scent of prey and walked towards them madly.
Pei Duyan saw clearly just now that the end of this tomb was out of sight and there was almost no possibility of escape for them.
"Inspector Feng, you go first."
"What?" Feng Tianning looked at him in confusion, his hands moving non-stop, continuously sending sword energy towards the approaching stone man.
"You are a monk, so you might be able to escape. Now go back the same way and ask for help. Maybe you can come back and collect your body for me."
Pei Du tried to sound as relaxed as possible, but he couldn't hide the trembling in his voice.
Feng Tianning was silent for a moment, then grabbed his arm and wanted to send him back to the previous tomb.
She poured all her spiritual power into the Hongmeng Holy Sword and swung it with all her might towards the stone man in front of her.
The stone man who was about to approach them disappeared in an instant, leaving an open space in front of them.
She pulled Pei Duyan up, mobilized the last bit of her remaining spiritual power, and flew towards the previous tomb.
"Don't be afraid." Feng Tianning's voice seemed to have magic, calming Pei Duyan's originally panicked heart.
But when they returned to the exit of the previous tomb, they found that the hole had disappeared.
"How could this happen!" Pei Duyan screamed, a trace of despair flashing in his eyes.
This blocked their last retreat.
Feng Tianning felt that the remaining spiritual power in her body seemed to be rapidly dissipating, as if something was absorbing her spiritual power.
She looked around and suddenly found a protruding cliff behind her on the right, just enough for two people to stand.
Without hesitation, she pulled Pei Duyan towards the cliff.
