Tomb raiding: following the plot while tearing up the script

Chapter 120 The Little House



Chapter 120 The Little House

As he lowered his head to eat his lunchbox again, Su Li noticed that the burn on the back of his neck was very red, and she guessed that the other areas covered by his clothes were probably not feeling any better either.

No wonder the old man was in so much pain, it was quite frightening.

Su Li bent her knee and bumped into the old man. As the old man looked up in confusion, a pill was placed in his palm and presented to him.

Liang Shiye stared in horror at the pills being handed to him, his eyes filled with disbelief, as if to say, "I've already surrendered, why do I still need to take this?"

Su Li rolled her eyes at the old man who was overthinking things.

"Good stuff, take it or leave it."

He then tried to put the pills away.

Seeing this, Master Liang quickly reached out and took it. Thinking of Wu Xie's miraculous abilities, and knowing that the situation couldn't get any worse, he closed his eyes and put the pill into his mouth.

The familiar melt-in-your-mouth texture made him shudder involuntarily, and just as he was about to say something, he suddenly realized that something was wrong with his body.

She stared at Su Li in shock, only to receive a smug raised eyebrow from him.

"This……"

"Have a meal."

Su Li interrupted Liang Shiye as he was about to speak, and Liang Shiye watched as he gestured in the direction of Lao Yang.

understood.

Also confused.

So, aren't you guys in cahoots?

Feeling the cool, comfortable sensation on the areas of his body that had been burned, broken, or blistered, as if they were healing rapidly, Liang Shiye felt that he was more like one of them.

After all, he's an old hand who's been through thick and thin for decades. With a little thought, he understood the situation and stopped talking, focusing on his meal.

After each of us finished a large, luxurious lunchbox, we patted our bellies contentedly, feeling very full and at ease...

After eating and drinking their fill and resting for a while to replenish their energy, Wu Xie replaced all the miners' lamps they were wearing with new ones.

The light has been on the whole way and has been bumped and knocked around a lot; it wouldn't be good if it broke down halfway through.

Although the main selling point when buying it was its durability and resilience, Xiao Tianzhen had absolutely no confidence in her strange luck.

Once they confirmed that there were no problems with the equipment, the group was able to continue their journey.

As soon as Su Li stepped into the secret passage at the bottom of the coffin, a system notification sounded in her ear...

"Beep beep, the 'Thousand Coffins Fire Dragon Formation' storyline has been completed, 1000 points!"

"Ding ding, congratulations host for successfully completing the 'Thousand Coffins Fire Dragon Formation' storyline, you have received a World Consciousness reward of World Origin *1."

Hey?

I thought this part wasn't part of the plot?

So, they haven't left the storyline yet?

"Congratulations, host, you have received 1 Spirit Vein Fragment and 1/4 Simplified Blessed Land from Venerable Yunqing of the cultivation world."

And Master's message: "This world's consciousness has been making resource delivery a bit too slow lately. Even when Master asked your eldest brother to build you a small house, it had to be split into four parts to be delivered! It's infuriating!!!"

It's clear that the master is very angry, and the consequences will be severe.

What has Master done lately? Why is the world consciousness starting to restrict my resources?

Ah! My senior brother built a small house for me!!!

开心!!!!(?0?5?0?4?0?8?9?0?0?4?0?8?0?5)

After considering the spiritual vein fragments I currently have, it seems that I will be able to start cultivating spiritual veins soon!

Damn it! ! !

It’s over!!!

A small section of the array's core is still not repaired, so I'll have to work overtime and go on a business trip again when I get back...

Wu Xie watched as Su Li, walking in front of him, would be so happy that it looked like little flowers were blooming on her head, and then suddenly become listless like a frostbitten eggplant.

I wonder what's going on in this kid's head as he hurryes on his way...

Isn't getting distracted while walking one of my special skills?

For some reason, this idea suddenly popped into Wu Xie's mind.

Great, it's clear at a glance who the child learned bad habits from.

After slipping and being caught by Su Li, Wu Xie's fair face almost turned red.

Thinking about why Ali was daydreaming, I drifted off into my own thoughts...

What the hell is this?!

As you walk down the secret passage, you can feel the temperature rising steadily, and even the wind blowing up from below carries heat.

Fortunately, there was no foul smell here, unlike the usual smell found in tombs. He couldn't even imagine how inhuman the smell would be after heating it up.

Lao Yang was right; this secret passage was indeed very long. It was so long that they had already digested half of their food before they reached the end of the tomb passage.

At this point, the temperature around their bodies felt similar to being exposed to the scorching summer sun. Old Yang and Liang Shiye were drenched in sweat, which dripped down their bodies like raindrops…

As they stepped out of the tomb passage, a gust of hot wind blew in from an unknown direction, almost knocking them off their feet.

I regained my balance after realizing what was happening.

When they looked up, they all froze.

After they left the secret passage, they were standing on the edge of a large pit.

The edges of this large pit are neat and regular, unlike a naturally formed pit; it must have been dug out by someone.

In the middle of the pit, a large pillar, about ten meters in diameter, stands quietly, its bottom buried deep in the rocks at the bottom of the pit.

One can't help but wonder if there's another section hidden beneath this rock, which would allow the pillar to stand so firmly.

This huge pillar is not smooth and round; it is covered with dense, bark-like patterns, making the entire pillar look like a giant tree trunk.

A beam of light swept upwards from the bottom of the pit, reflecting a faint metallic sheen off the pillar, until it disappeared beyond the reach of even the headlamp…

Looking up along the pillar, you can clearly see various branches of copper rods of different sizes extending outwards. Those copper rods look almost exactly the same as Lao Yang's precious rod.

As for the sticks that Lao Yang treasured like the back of his hand, there were at least a thousand of them on this pillar, just within their field of vision.

Wu Xie glanced at Liang Shiye, who was nearly snapping his neck from looking up, and patted the old man on the shoulder.

"Old Liang, take it easy. Don't break your old bones. There's no doctor here to set your bones!"

Master Liang rubbed his neck with difficulty; and you know what, he almost broke his neck from looking up.

"This is unbelievable!!!! This...this is, this is a..."

"A giant bronze tree..."

Old Yang picked up where Liang Shiye left off in a low voice. Strangely, he spoke without a single stutter, which made Liang Shiye feel a little uncomfortable, and he suddenly shivered in the hot environment.

"Beep beep, a strange creature has been detected—a materialized life form (Lao Yang). 100% energy remaining, 1000 points available for redemption. Redeem now?"

Um? ? ? ?

Is the battery fully charged?

Don't you need a connection?

Wireless charging!
