Chapter 422: Everyone, Better Not Look Into the Water

Everyone subconsciously looked at Chu Luo.

Chu Luo said, “Everyone, just don’t go near the river and it’ll be fine.”

After saying that, she looked at the wide wooden bridge over the moat and said to everyone, “Let’s go in and take a look.”

When Wang Ming, who had just been helped up, heard this, he quickly stopped her. “Mrs. Li, you can’t go in there.”

“Can’t go? Why?”

“Look at how many dead bones and so many piranhas are in the river. That bridge is a wooden bridge. What if we miss and fall down?”

Before Chu Luo could speak, Sun Tianhao patted Wang Ming’s shoulder.

Wang Ming was so frightened that his body trembled and his face turned green.

Sun Tianhao said, “Wang Ming, why are you so frightened? This is the Loulan Ancient Capital. We definitely aren’t the only ones who came here. Look at that bridge. It’s obvious that someone put it down later. If they can cross it, why can’t we?

“Don’t underestimate the ancient man-made bridge. That wood definitely won’t rot.

If you’re afraid, I’ll get two people to protect you as you leave.

“Or you and Lu Feng can stay here. We’ll go in and take a look.”

When he heard this, Lu Feng quickly said, “I’m not staying here. I’ll go in with you guys.”

He would be a fool to stay here with Wang Ming. Regardless of whether it was dangerous or not, following them would definitely be safer than just the two of them staying here.

Wang Ming’s lips moved a few times before he said, “I’ll follow you.”

He and Lu Feng had the same thought.

“Yeah. There are so many of us. What are you afraid of?”

After Sun Tianhao finished speaking, he urged Chu Luo and the others excitedly, “Let’s go into the city.”

As men, they more or less liked to explore, especially people like Sun Tianhao.

Chu Luo and Li Yan walked towards the bridge first, the others following closely behind.

When they reached the drawbridge, they looked at the traces of age and some bloody footprints.

“Ha! Why are there such footsteps?”

Sun Tianhao’s gasp made the others shudder.

Third Master Sun slapped his head. “Rascal, lock your mouth in these places. Don’t be so easily startled. Don’t you know that will scare people to death?”

Sun Tianhao rubbed the back of his head that was in pain and became obedient.

Li Yan grabbed Chu Luo’s hand and the two of them walked onto the bridge.

After the two of them went up, Qin Ming and the bodyguards immediately followed.

Then, the Sun family went up.

Someone walking on the bridge wanted to look down. Chu Luo, who was at the front, reminded them, “Everyone, it’s best not to look into the water.”

With her reminder, everyone subconsciously looked ahead and quickened their pace as they crossed the bridge.

After entering the city gate, the scene in front of them wasn’t actually good. There were broken walls everywhere. Only the limestone bricks under their feet were slightly better. At the very least, they could walk on it.

“This place is similar to the other ancient relics I saw on television,” Sun Tianhao muttered as he walked.

He suddenly recalled what his father had said and immediately shut his mouth.

The layout of the city was the same as all the ancient capital. There were four streets, eight side streets, and 72 winding lanes.

Everyone walked along the southeast main street. The surrounding houses had basically collapsed into a pile of ruins. The corners of the houses had already been weathered, and the style of the houses couldn’t be seen. However, one could imagine the flourishing scenery back then.

After walking for about half an hour, someone finally whispered, “It’s so quiet here.”

These words almost broke the tense nerves of many people.

After walking for a while, a large circular fountain appeared in front of them, blocking the view behind. The fountain was divided into inner and outer circles.

At this moment, the fountain was spraying water from the inside out.

This time, Sun Tianhao couldn’t help but exclaim, “Are the sculptures inside the entire Silk Road?”

Chu Luo nodded. “Yes, the Silk Road.”

Seeing Chu Luo respond to him, Sun Tianhao was relieved and bold enough to start talking. “I didn’t expect the ancients at that time to be so powerful. They actually carved the entire Silk Road and even placed it in the fountain as a statue.”

“Not only were they powerful, but they were also extremely wise.”

The carvings hadn’t been eroded at all.

Third Master Sun exclaimed, “Are those stones?”

If it had been carved from stone, it wouldn’t have been fine after so many years.

“That’s obsidian. And it’s covered with a special layer of something to prevent decay.”

“No wonder. But where did they get such a big slab of obsidian?”

This slab of obsidian was at least two to three tons in weight. Such a large slab of obsidian was simply rare in the world.

Sun Tianhao said, “If other people find out, they will definitely target this obsidian.”

“But you have to be alive to get this stone out.” Chu Luo snorted. “This kind of stone is usually cursed. Even if you can bring it out, it will bring endless misfortune to the person who took it away, as well as his family and descendants.”

These words startled everyone.

Lu Feng and Wang Ming even kowtowed to the obsidian rock.

Then, they prepared to walk around the fountain.

Chu Luo stopped them. “Yan and I will go take a look first. You guys wait here.”

“Miss Chu, I’ll go with you,” Qin Ming immediately said.

“No need.”

Third Master Sun and Sun Tianhao asked at the same time, “Is there danger behind?”

“There’s something in the palace.” When Chu Luo said that, everyone instantly raised their guard.

Before Chu Luo left, she gave Qin Ming a medicine bottle. “If anything comes out of it, drug that thing.”

Qin Ming took the bottle and nodded seriously.

Chu Luo and Li Yan walked behind the fountain.

What appeared in front of them was a magnificent palace. The palace was at least 500 meters away from here. After walking in, they could see that the buildings had been corroded by time but weren’t as severely damaged as elsewhere.

Standing outside the palace, Li Yan asked Chu Luo, “What do you sense?”

“I can only sense that there’s something inside, and that something doesn’t welcome us.”

With that, the two of them walked towards the steps of the palace.

The palace here was a little different from the palace that everyone was familiar with. It was a circular building, and it was obvious that it had incorporated many elements of the other countries at that time, especially the Persian countries.

The door of the hall was closed slightly, and the carvings could still be seen on the thick door.

Chu Luo was about to push open the door when Li Yan grabbed her hand.

“I’ll do it.”

After Li Yan finished speaking, he pulled Chu Luo to stand beside him and took out his gun. The two of them stood at the side as he pushed the door open with the gun barrel.

The moment the door opened, a group of crows flew out.

Li Yan reacted quickly and pulled Chu Luo towards the wall to dodge.

After a while, the two of them walked in.

Standing outside the door and looking at the buildings inside, Chu Luo was shocked.

“Looks like someone else has already arrived. Do you think it’s the Qin family or the Duanmu family who came with us, or the people who came previously?”

“Since they’re here, there must be traces.”

The two of them walked in.

The palace was originally well preserved, but it had been rummaged by someone. The gems on the walls and the throne were all still there.

Chu Luo couldn’t help but mutter, “These people don’t even fancy these gems and gold anymore.”

After saying those words, she snorted coldly.

There was only one reason why they didn’t fancy these things, and that was that they wanted to go to that tomb and obtain more wealth than this.

The gold and gems here were like a drop in the ocean in their eyes.

The two of them walked around the treasure hall and finally stood at the bottom of the steps of the throne.

“Did the danger you sensed come from there?”

“Yes.”

Just as Chu Luo finished speaking, the door to the hall behind her closed with a bang.

The entire hall became dark.

Chu Luo grabbed Li Yan’s hand and quickly pointed around with her other hand.

The candlestick on the wall lit up.

The flames lit up the entire hall.

The two of them stared at the… weasel in a yellow robe who had been sitting on the throne at some point.

It should be said that this weasel wasn’t a pure weasel. He had a human body, but his head was that of a weasel.

Most importantly, one of the weasel spirit’s arms was broken with a fresh wound. His eyes were filled with hatred.

“What’s that?” Li Yan’s voice was tense.

“A weasel spirit that was conjured. This must be the doing of someone who came before us.”

After Chu Luo finished speaking, the weasel raised his arm as if he was ordering his guards to catch the two people who barged in.

Soon, countless weasels ran out from behind the throne.

These weasels were as big as adult big cats, making one’s hair stand on end.

Li Yan said, “I’ll deal with them. Stand back.”

Chu Luo quickly took two steps back and stared at the weasel spirit sitting on the throne.

The weasel spirit stared at Li Yan fiercely.

Li Yan took out a thin whip and strode towards the charging weasels.

Then, the sound of a whip whipping filled the entire hall.

At the same time, there were all kinds of collisions.

Screams.

Li Yan exuded a strong murderous aura. With every lash, he could send a few weasels flying.

Soon, the entire hall was filled with a strong bloody smell.

The eyes of the weasel spirit sitting on the throne changed color.

“Yan, be careful.”

While Chu Luo was reminding Li Yan, she quickly took out a talisman and formed an invisible shield in front of Li Yan.

In the next moment, a ball of stinking green liquid sprayed on the invisible shield and was rebounded onto the weasels who were very close to them.

A terrifying thing happened…
