"No?"

Wang Cheng didn't see a word on the jade slip. He turned it over and over, but still didn't see anything.

The woman in black took the jade slip from Wang Cheng's hand and said with a smile: "I told you before that even if I give you this thing, you won't be able to use it."

Wang Cheng was greatly disappointed. If there were words on this jade slip, he would be able to remember them all just by looking at them.

Who knew that there was not a single word on it, and his wishful thinking failed.

He still refused to give up and said, "Let me take another look."

The woman in black said nothing this time and handed the jade slip to him and said, "Don't be disappointed. These items were all used by Duke Zhao during his lifetime, and they are all rare treasures."

Wang Cheng is a man after all, and what he said naturally counts. He can only give up the seven volumes of jade slips and take out the sword and the dragon-shaped jade pendant.

"Wouldn't it be inappropriate for us to open the coffin to retrieve the items?" He always felt a little uncomfortable.

The woman in black shook her head and said, "Who is Mr. Zhao? Since he left these things here, he wanted to leave them to future generations."

"I can rest assured that."

Wang Cheng felt no more pressure and stretched out his hand towards the crown, which was the crown of the emperor.

"stop!"

The woman in black immediately stopped him and said in a deep voice: "This is the crown of the emperor. No one except the kings of Zhou Dynasty is allowed to wear it. This is a serious crime of confiscating the family and exterminating the clan."

The crown of the emperor is called the crown, and the crown is derived from the crown. Due to the emergence of the crown, the crown was divided into status levels. "The Rites of the Great Zhou Dynasty" clearly records: "Mian, the official crown."

The emperor's crown is a hat that can only be worn by those with the highest power. No one is allowed to wear it unless it is given by the King of Zhou like Zhao Gong.

"I'm not qualified to wear this thing!"

Wang Cheng shook his head and moved his eyes to the twelve strings of jade curtains on the crown.

That is the charm of the crown. It is usually made of colorful jade beads connected with colorful silk threads. Its standard name is "tamamo". In the crown system, the number of bead curtains is particular, and its number is a major indicator of identity.

"The Rites of the Great Zhou Dynasty" clearly records that there are 12 jade beads hanging from the front and back of the crown worn by the emperor, and there are a total of 12 jade beads in red, yellow, green, white and black on each lace.

"These jade beads should be worth a lot of money, right?" Wang Cheng said with a half-smile.

The woman in black immediately understood what Wang Cheng meant and said, "Are you going to take down this emperor's crown?"

Seeing Wang Cheng nodding, she trembled with anger and said, "Do you know how precious this emperor's crown is? You? You actually want to tear it down? Are you so short of money?"

Wang Cheng nodded and said matter-of-factly: "Money is a good thing, and money can make the world go round. Eating, drinking, having sex, weddings and funerals, and martial arts training, none of them require money."

"I guess I misjudged you!" The woman in black didn't expect Wang Cheng to be such a worldly person.

Wang Cheng was not angry at all and said: "How about... I give it to you?"

"Give it to me?"

The woman in black was startled when she saw Wang Cheng staring at the jade slip in her hand, not understanding what was going on.

After working on it for a long time, this person still took a fancy to the seven jade slips in her hand.

"Let's discuss it. If you give me two jade slips, the crown of the emperor will be yours!" Wang Cheng said.

"You...you should give up on this idea!" The woman in black hugged the jade slip tightly.

"Then there's no way."

Wang Cheng showed a pityful expression, then bent down to pick up the crown.

But just when his hand was about to touch the crown, the crown suddenly moved.

Wang Cheng was startled, and then he saw a golden bug emerging from under the crown.

"Gold-eating bug!"

Wang Cheng was immediately overjoyed and reached out to grab the gold-eating insect without hesitation.

In his eyes, not to mention one crown, even ten crowns are nothing compared to the gold-eating insect.

However, a golden light flashed, and the gold-eating insect disappeared into the coffin without even touching it with his hand.

Wang Cheng immediately chased after him, but Youdao's figure was one step ahead of him.

"Nima!"

Wang Cheng was so angry that he wanted to curse. This woman in black obviously also had a crush on the gold-eating insect.

Why the hell do you only take one thing?

That was before seeing the gold-eating insect. As the number one spiritual insect in the world, who wouldn’t be greedy?

Without Zhao De controlling the mechanism secretly, the rising fog in the underground palace has dissipated.

Both of them used their fastest movements, but the gold-eating insect was even faster than them.

After chasing them all the way down the mountain, the gold-eating insects were getting further and further away from them.

The woman in black stretched out a jade hand into the void, and a few rays of golden light flashed between her fingers.

I saw wisps of golden light shooting out, turning into threads, and shooting in all directions.

In an instant, these golden threads formed a huge cube.

The golden light flowed along the silk thread, and the gold-eating insect that had been invisible suddenly appeared again, and fell to the ground as if it had been electrocuted.

Wang Cheng was overjoyed and rushed towards the gold-eating insect. However, when he approached the golden cube, he was shaken by a force and almost flew out.

"you……"

Wang Cheng glared at the woman in black. He didn't know why. She must have been secretly making the move just now.

The woman in black said nothing. She shook her jade hand and the huge golden cube immediately shrank.

The gold-eating insect seemed to sense the danger and flew into the air with a "swish", but then fell down again.

It hit the top of the golden cube and realized that it couldn't walk on it, so it burrowed into the soil below.

But it was also surrounded by golden threads below, and as soon as it got close to this side, it was knocked away by a force.

"Boohoo!"

The gold-eating insects flew around and bumped into each other, but they were still unable to break through the golden cube.

"good!"

Wang Cheng couldn't help but clap his hands. This little thing was slippery and too difficult to catch.

Now that the gold-eating insect can't escape, he is still very happy regardless of whether the gold-eating insect can fall into his hands in the end.

"not that simple!"

The woman in black suddenly spoke and recited a mantra, and the golden cube immediately shrank rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, the golden cube shrank to less than half a meter.

Just as he was about to be caught, the gold-eating insect suddenly spurted a golden thread from its mouth.

Very thin, but extremely sharp, it penetrated the invisible barrier in the golden cube.

"not good!"

The woman in black and Wang Cheng said in unison, and then attacked the gold-eating insect at the same time.

Both hands grabbed the gold-eating insect at the same time, almost blocking the gold-eating insect's path.

However, the gold-eating insect turned a corner and jumped out from the gap between the two hands.

The two of them quickly stopped their hands, and just a little bit closer, their hands bumped into each other intimately.

The woman in black turned around, her jade hand flashed with golden light again, and she grabbed the gold-eating insect that had fled several meters away.

The golden threads shot out quickly again, and the gold-eating insect seemed to know the horror of this thing and swept towards the ground.

"Take action quickly!" the woman in black reminded quickly.

Gold-eating insects are good at digging through soil and rocks. Once they enter the ground, they are really like a fish entering the sea, and they can no longer catch it.

Wang Cheng was already prepared, and his mental power surged to the surface like a tide, quickly forming a mental barrier.

"Boom!!"

The gold-eating insect hit the telepathy barrier and was bounced into the air.

At the same time, the magic circle formed by the woman in black has also taken shape, and a golden cube with a side length of ten meters once again covers the gold-eating insect inside.

Wang Cheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, finally trapping this little thing again.

The gold-eating insect fluttered a pair of thin wings, but this time it didn't fly around and bump around in the first place. After turning its little head half a circle, it disappeared with a "whoosh".

The two of them were startled and quickly glanced around. For a moment, they didn't realize why the little thing was missing.

The ground was littered with crossbow arrows, pits made by boulders, and other miscellaneous things.

Wang Cheng's clairvoyant eyes opened, and everything on the ground came into his mind clearly.

"Zhaode?!"

"What?"

The woman in black was startled, her jade hands shook, and the spell dissipated.

Wang Cheng pointed at a pile of debris on the ground and said, "Zhao De!"

Looking in the direction pointed by Wang Cheng, the woman in black saw Zhao De lying there in ragged clothes. His body was covered with dirt. It was difficult to spot him without looking carefully.

The woman in black breathed a sigh of relief and said angrily: "Next time, tell me everything."

She was really frightened just now. She thought Zhao De had come back from the dead.

But at this moment, Zhao De, who was originally lying on the ground, sat up in one fell swoop.

This time, the woman in black was really frightened and subconsciously grabbed Wang Cheng's arm.

What's even more incredible is that Zhao De actually turned his head and looked at them.

"Fake corpse?"

Wang Cheng was shocked, and he was also frightened, because this was the first time he encountered such a situation that only appeared in movies and TV series, and he was more shocked than afraid.

The woman in black on the side hugged his arm tightly and said in a trembling voice: "Look... look at his collar!"

I saw that the gold-eating insect that suddenly disappeared just now emerged from under Zhao De's clothes, opened its mouth and spit out a golden light towards Zhao De's eyebrows.

After this golden light penetrated into Zhao De's eyebrows, Zhao De's eyes actually started to move.

"Damn! It's really a fake corpse!"

Many rumors about "fraudulent corpses" flashed through Wang Cheng's mind.

It is said that when a person dies, there is still a breath of air left in his chest. If he is attacked by a cat, dog, rat or something, he will be falsely resurrected, and the soul of the animal will be possessed by the corpse, which is the so-called "fake corpse".

Wang Cheng was born under the red flag and grew up in the spring breeze. He never believed in these feudal superstitions. Now that he saw with his own eyes that a mouthful of something spit out by the gold-eating insect resurrected Zhao De, he had no choice but to believe it.

"Damn! It doesn't matter whether you are really resurrected or fake, go to hell!"

Wang Cheng took out his arm held by the woman in black and struck at Duke Zhao with his sword.

"brush!"

Wang Cheng struck down with his sword, but it was all in the air. Zhao De had already disappeared one step ahead of schedule.

Zhao De appeared in mid-air and flew towards the luminous sphere at the top of the underground palace.

When the woman in black saw this, she immediately shouted: "No! Stop him quickly!"

While speaking, she had already taken action and quickly formed a seal with her hands.

"boom!!"

A whirlwind rose out of thin air and instantly expanded to a tornado with a diameter of ten meters.

The tornado swept across the figure in the sky, but it was still a step slower, and Zhao De instantly hit the glowing sphere.
