Chapter 121: Little Zombie (1)

Xinghe first observed the surroundings to check if there were any other triggering devices, then he threw a magic weapon into the passage.

The magic weapon flew all the way to the end and then came back. No abnormality was found, so everyone walked inside.

On the walls on both sides of the passage were hundreds of ferocious statues, like emissaries of the netherworld, with grim and solemn faces.

Rong Yi wanted to touch these old stone figures, but fearing to trigger any trigger. So he had to restrain his curiosity, following them to leave.

At the other end of the passage was a spacious flat ground, opposite to which was an ancient and exquisite gate.

"Master, the gate should be the entrance to the tomb," said Xing He. "Young master and Yu Bin wait for us here. We will come out immediately when we find Spring Hell Flower."

Yu Bin was a cultivator who reached Nil Infant phase. When he heard Xinghe's command, he immediately stood up and walked beside Rong Yi.

Rong Yi nodded, "Be careful."

Yin Jinye walked to the front of him. Seeing the jade pendant hanging on Rong Yi's waist was not broken, he turned to follow Xinghe to the front of the gate.

Xinghe saw there was a gap about two feet wide between the two doors and said, "The gate is open?"

Everyone was immediately alerted and looked around but found no abnormality.

Xinghe then said, "Today is the day for the Ghost Sect to worship. Someone may came out and forget to close the gate properly, so the gate is open."

Yin Jinye released his spiritual sense to look around the surroundings, and said after making sure that there was no one beside them, "Let's go inside."

"Okay."

Seeing them enter the gate, Rong Yi said to Yu Bin, "Let's hang around."

"Where are we going?" asked Yu Bin.

"I just want to see if there is anything left on the surrounding walls," Rong Yi held up a torch to walk to the side of a wall beside him.

There were many portraits of figures on the wall. Through these drawings, he guessed they recorded the history of the Ghost Sect.

In the tomb, there were indeed three Wandering Immortals in ghost cultivation buried inside. And the coffin of the first dead one was placed with an extra coffin beside, and a woman was pushed into the coffin by the other ghost cultivators.

"Geez. It's really cruel. They buried her alive," Rong Yi handed the torch to Yu Bin and asked, "Can you tell if this woman was pregnant?"

The ancient art of painting was not as good as now, so it was quite a big achievement to be able to draw human shape.

Yu Bin looked at it carefully, "Yes, she seemed to be carrying a baby."

"It's so cruel to bury a pregnant woman as a funerary," Rong Yi continued to walk forward holding the torch. The following paintings were the sacrificial activities of the Ghost Sect and some arrays and formations for sacrificial purposes. He had not seen these before and hurriedly handed the torch to Yu Bin. Then he took out a pen and paper to record these arrays, formations and symbols.

Yu Bin asked curiously, "Young master, why are you copying them down?"

Rong Yi explained, "We should record things that we have never seen before and taken it back to study. Maybe they could be helpful in the future. If the Ghost Sect uses these against us one day, we can at least find a solution."

Every time their Rong Family entered a tomb or a Realm, they would record all the details inside, and then took out the things they had never seen before and studied together with the others. They would also find out how to deal with the unknown stuff and researched herbs and ingredients to deal with them, and how to match them with other ingredients to achieve the maximum effect was also one of the research issues of their family.

Yu Bin thought Rong Yi had a very good habit. If it were for the other men in their group, they would only focus on the triggers and other hidden weapons. To discover the drawings on the wall? Forgot about it.

He once heard some servants in the Mansion said that Rong Yi had read hundreds of thousands of volumes of books. He felt that these people were boasting at that time. Seeing Rong Yi so serious about making records, Yu Bin changed his attitude towards this man. Only such a man could have so much knowledge, thought him.

Yu Bin wielded his sword and flew upward, "Young master, I'll go and see if there are any symbols or formations on the top wall that you haven't seen."

"Okay." Rong Yi took a torch to continue to walk forward, and then he saw that at the entrance to the tomb stood a statue of a child dressed in rags, about four years old, dirty face, hair in a mess. What surprised him most was that the stone statue looked like a real human that carved lifelike.

"Is the ancient carving technique already so good? I almost thought it was a real person." Rong Yi walked over and observed it curiously, "Is it a stone statue or a corpse?"

He was very alert and did not get too close. Standing three feet away from the statue, he took out a chopstick and gently poked the face of the figure. Unlike normal stone figures with hard touch, the statue was soft and elastic.

"Is it a corpse?"

Suddenly, the child's eyes rolled.

"Shit!" Rong Yi quickly stepped back in astonishment.

"Young master, what's happened?" Hearing the sound, Yu Bin hurried back beside Rong Yi.

The kid then smiled at them with a naive and hoarse laughter.

Yu Bin was surprised, "How could there be a child here?"

Didn't the lord check it if there was some other people here before entering the gate?

"He doesn't look like an ordinary child," Rong Yi pulled Yu Bin back a few more steps and didn't stop until about 20 feet away from the child.

"Then he is..."
