There are too many phenomena tonight that I don't understand. I don't know the principle of that pot, but it can produce illusions and even cause the spontaneous combustion of white phosphorus. If we really talk about science, I don't know how to explain it. Maybe these treasures are made of special materials, so many things will happen that we can't analyze.

There are still too many things that humans do not know. The universe is so vast, the seabed is so deep, and quantum physics is so unpredictable. There are too many things that humans cannot explain with scientific knowledge. Therefore, if we really want to explore the truth, we may only be able to go off in a dead end and not be able to fully understand it.

When Lao Hui saw the Yinxi Pot right in front of him, he rushed over desperately to snatch it. However, just as he was about to touch it, he was suddenly bitten on the neck by a huge beast. He was only a few centimeters away from the pot. Unfortunately, the gorilla's long arms could not allow him to reach his treasure. He stretched out his hands hard, but was dragged tightly by the big beast, and was dragged farther and farther away.

Yunwen and I were stunned!

The one biting Old Hui's neck was none other than the long-dead nine-tailed white fox. Its eyes were glowing dimly, and its body was emitting a ghostly aura. Its fur was gradually growing evenly, and its fangs were much more prominent than before. It suddenly increased its strength in its jaws, and with a click, the opponent's neck was bitten through. Old Hui was unable to breathe, and his throat made a groaning sound, and blood was flowing continuously.

My palm was still trying to touch the Yinxi Pot, but ultimately failed to do so. It swayed helplessly, and my eyes, which had always been calm and steady, dimmed. My body twitched. The moonlight was obscured by dark clouds, and the light was greatly affected. Yunwen and I could no longer see clearly what was happening.

But after hearing a few chewing sounds, there was a banging sound, followed by the sound of four legs galloping and sparse noises in the bushes. I guess the nine-tailed white fox must have run away.

By the time the clouds and fog cleared, the old gray animal was already dying. Its body was obviously shriveled and its face had changed. One felt that this was its true appearance. It looked old and faded, and was about to die. It looked like the setting sun. The extra four hundred years that it had borrowed from others by relying on the pot were ultimately an illusion.

It held on to its last breath and gestured tremblingly towards Yunwen, then dropped its hands, its eyes dull and distracted, and it stopped moving, having become a corpse.

"What does it say?" I asked.

Although the old gorilla had done something unjust to us, Yunwen still seemed to feel pity for its death. After she saw its death, she felt a little sad, sniffed, and said, "Nothing, it just explained some things and apologized to us."

Looking back at the life of this old gorilla, he followed Li Mufeng to spend the second half of his life, drank the water of immortality, and then became addicted to the so-called [Erosion] of the corpse refining bottle. He was fascinated by it all his life, so that he followed this path and led his descendants to continuously kill and hunt those spiritual animals. He must have gone to find the nine-tailed fox for this reason. He was anxious to find us because he knew that humans are the spirits of all things and refining corpses must be of great benefit.

For this reason, it personally went to look for our residence. That night, when I was about to relieve myself, it led its tribesmen to the vicinity. It must have discovered us. After all, the smell on our bodies was the same as that of its master, Li Mufeng, which was the smell of humans. How could it forget it? Therefore, after it was sure, it immediately pretended to leave, but in fact it had already begun to monitor us.

The theory is similar to raising pigs, which can be slaughtered when needed. The method is to wait until August 14th, when it will come first to check it out and find that our dishes are all warm. It will then be sure that we are among them, and will call upon the Tyrannosaurus Rex, the Four-Armed White Ape and its tribesmen to capture us and prepare for the sacrifice and corpse refining.

It was just that I accidentally dropped the jade halberd before I fell into a coma. After it found out, it remembered the instructions of its master Li Mufeng, and took Yunwen and me there specially. However, it pretended to obey the instructions, but secretly disobeyed the instructions. Although it fulfilled its master's wish, it also had its own little calculations. It tore up the second half of the letter in order to block our way out.

As for why the stone door of the stone chamber is closed from the outside but cannot be opened normally from the outside, it should be that Li Mufeng specially used it to prevent Lao Hui, so there is a mechanism, that is, the door can be opened and closed from inside the house, but not from outside. I think that at that time, Senior Li Mufeng had already been on guard against it, but he did not want to kill the servant who accompanied him for the rest of his life before he died, so he wrote the sentence "From then on, the common man did not know the knife."

"It really should apologize, not only to us, but also to its owner. It wasted its master's teachings and broke the rules without permission, which is why it ended up dying so miserably instead of living the rest of its life in peace and contentment." I sighed.

"Alas, understanding human nature also fosters greed. Once you have greed, you will fall into delusion and be controlled and used by the corpse refining bottle [Yin Xie]. Will there be any good results in the end? You will suffer the consequences yourself." Yunwen also said.

Having said that, I noticed that the Yinxi Pot had disappeared, and the Nine-tailed White Fox had also disappeared. I remembered hearing a banging sound just now. I guess it must have taken the Yinxi Pot away and gone away from here.

But when I think about how it has changed beyond all recognition and how it looks so violent, I still feel a little scared. I don't know why it has changed into that appearance, but I always feel that it is not a good thing. I also don't know if it is still the beautiful fox fairy I saw in my dream.

The four-armed white ape and the gorillas were still looking for the crystals left behind after their fellow beings were burned to death. It seemed that they did not take the death of their brothers and father any more seriously. I couldn't help but sigh that these beasts were still beasts after all.

I moved closer to Yunwen and whispered in her ear, "Let's leave here quietly."

Yunwen nodded, and when I was about to take her eyes off me, she suddenly turned around, and her mouth was directly on my lips. It felt sweet, slightly moist, and cool, and we were caught off guard. We both blushed with embarrassment. She immediately turned her face away, covered her lips, lowered her head, and even giggled out loud.

"What are you going to say?" I asked quietly.

She shook her head and said, "I just want to thank you for your selfless efforts just now."

I smiled and continued in a low voice: "Well, this thank you is sincere enough."

She grumbled, hit my chest with her pink fist, blushed, and said shyly, "Hateful!"

Then, I took her hand and walked to the front. The Golden Sword happened to be thrown there, so I took it. The gorillas were only busy looking for crystals in the ashes of the corpse and did not pay attention to us or what we were doing. So we bypassed them and moved forward as quietly as possible.

However, at this moment, I felt a lump of something, and it sounded like a hard object, and there was a crackling sound around it. It should have been on the pile of ashes, so what I stepped on was the so-called crystal?

This time, all the gorillas were once again attracted by our attention. The four-armed white ape took turns beating his chest with his four hands. It seemed that he had reacted. He roared to the sky and rushed over with a few punches and roars. I hurriedly pulled Yunwen and ran left and right among the woods.

Due to insufficient moonlight in the forest, it was pitch black. The gorilla's eyes are not much better than humans', and its ability to adapt to darkness is not enough, so its several swings were in vain. However, I can hear sounds, so when the trees are swaying in the wind, I have basically mapped out the obstacles on the road in my brain, and my ability to adapt to darkness is slightly better than its.

In this way, I can temporarily rely on this skill to avoid its attacks and keep some distance from it!

Yunwen ran after me, panting heavily. When we passed the stone-paved road, Yunwen shouted with difficulty: "Let's turn right and go into the cave."

"But there's a dead end there." I said hurriedly as I ran.

"Compared to going down the mountain, that might be the only way to survive..." Yunwen said.
