Seeing this scene, I broke out in a cold sweat. Without even thinking, I stepped forward and grabbed Xu Jinxiu's arm and pulled her to my side.

"Click! Carrara..."

Then there was a series of sounds from the mechanism, as if it was causing something. Then I looked towards the top and found an empty secret opening at the edge of the chain, directly above the coffin.

"call out!!!"

Then came the sound of arrow feathers. Before I could react, I realized at first glance that the head of the corpse with its eyes open had been penetrated!

Liu Bao was the first to react. He shouted "Wo Cao!" and rushed over with the ax tightly in one hand.

After seeing that there was no movement from the body, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, this guy didn't really come to life. If this thing really came to life, it would probably be a big rice dumpling, or even a big rice dumpling. Maybe even more powerful than the drought demon outside!

After all, he is an emperor of a generation, and the aura of emperor left in him is not something that ordinary people can obtain.

Liu Siyuan, Dalian and others looked at me, and then looked at the coffin intently.

"What's going on? Is it possible that this person has really become an immortal?"

"Yeah! I've been dead for thousands of years, and yet I'm still alive. It's like a ghost."

Liu Bao chuckled and shook the weapon in his hand.

"Then why go see a ghost? Isn't this the one in front of you?"

Liu Bao gestured to the coffin, obviously talking about Emperor Wen Ding.

Xu Jinxiu stared at the scene in front of her blankly, and she murmured next to me.

"Is this really true? Is there really no way to break the curse on this tomb? Could it be that our Xu family..."

Seeing her decadent look, I quickly interrupted her thoughts.

"Jinxiu, please don't think so much now. It's useless no matter how much you think about it now. Tell me what else you know. Let's find a way together to break this curse!"

"It's useless. We have been trying to break this curse for generations, but no one has succeeded for generations. Is there anything I can do if I get here?"

Xu Jinxiu looked at the coffin silently. I think she already had a certain guess in her mind. Since the curse originated here, the place where the curse should end should be here, but why...

All of a sudden, I felt Xu Jinxiu's body tremble slightly. She stopped talking. She seemed to be numb, and she just stood there motionless.

I noticed something was wrong and shook her twice, but Xu Jinxiu still didn't react at all. In an instant, I realized that something was wrong.

I looked up and found that Liu Bao, Liu Siyuan and others were in almost the same state. It was as if someone had cast a body-holding spell on them, and they stood there motionless.

I followed their gaze and suddenly realized that the scene inside the coffin seemed to have changed!

Suddenly I roared.

"Back off! Stop looking, don't even look at that eye! This is an illusion!"

My roar seemed to sink into the ocean, and they couldn't hear it at all.

The moment I looked at the golden coffin, my eyes instantly stung. The yin and yang eyes were activated almost instantly. At this moment, countless eyes appeared in the coffin, densely packed.

That kind of substantial dizziness, just one glance, can make me feel dizzy and nauseated. If someone with trypophobia looks at it, they may be scared to death on the spot.

Countless eyes were turning irregularly, looking left and right, as if they could pull everyone's thoughts into it.

Slowly, I turned my head and looked around. I didn't know if I was also trapped in the environment. The surrounding walls and golden chains were covered with eyes everywhere, densely packed.

There were everywhere under my feet and on the ground. Some eyes were narrowed to a slit. Looking at those eyes, it seemed as if they were laughing at our situation.

In the blur, I really thought I heard someone laughing. The laughter was ethereal, and the echoing sound kept hitting and irritating my eardrums.

Immediately afterwards, my body seemed to be restricted by something, and I couldn't move. I felt as if I had lost control of my body, leaving me with no way to resist.

Immediately after this, the sounds in my ears began to become clearer, and the scene in front of me suddenly changed. The place I was in was no longer a tomb, and the golden coffin disappeared without a trace. However, many people appeared in front of me, including Some people wear official uniforms, and some people wear civilian uniforms.

There are potholes everywhere, and many people are working to dig out the pits in front of them. Seeing this scene, my mind suddenly imagined that this was the scene before being sacrificed.

Because I looked along these working people, and not far away there was a group of prisoners wearing white prison uniforms. Their bodies were shackled, their hair was disheveled, and they looked lifelessly at the scene in front of them.

There were people wearing official uniforms of the Shang Dynasty staring at them, holding Guandao tightly in their hands. If there was anyone who was disobedient, or was crazy and wanted to escape, they would not even say a word. When the knife falls, a head falls to the ground!

The crowd seemed to be used to this scene. There was no screaming or any commotion. They just stood there numbly. These people seemed to have no consciousness at all.

I looked around and saw that where they were, where we were now, there was a big pit. The pit was very deep, like a patio. This was a mass grave prepared in advance!

It was specially used to sacrifice these condemned prisoners. Immediately afterwards, the Shang Dynasty soldiers appeared. A large group of masked Shang Dynasty soldiers riding black horses came. They commanded on the spot and drove all these people into the pit. Then the working people began to fill the hole, and the loose soil fell shovel by shovel, burying all these people alive!

These are real people!

And seeing that there were many children of seventeen or eighteen years old in the crowd, I was deeply touched. How crazy were the ancient emperors? They were sacrifice pits for thousands of people.

Just because of his so-called eternal life and the power in his hands, he could be so crazy. I couldn't help but click my tongue.

In fact, if I think about it from another angle, if I could really find the secret to immortality at that time, not to mention Emperor Wen Ding, even I might become crazy, because really few people can escape from the temptation of immortality.

I couldn't help but take a deep breath, and then tried to move my body. These eyes were probably the original transformation of the undead, their obsession and their resentment, but more importantly, they were the reflections of the current environment. Hallucination effect!

I know very clearly that I absolutely cannot let my body stay in its current state. If it goes on for such a long time, accidents that shouldn't happen are very likely to happen.

But the people around me were in the same state as me. They seemed to have lost the control they should have. Maybe it was because of my yin and yang eyes that I could not fall into an absolute illusion. Although my body could not move, my mind could. Just barely keeping it clear.

My eyes moved slightly downward and focused on my hands. I focused on thinking and control. Slowly, my fingers could feel it. When I sensed this scene, I felt happy for a moment!

Although this process is slow and very painful, at least it is a good start, which shows that in the current environment, nothing is impossible!

Slowly, I regained consciousness in my right hand, and quickly grasped it with one hand on my left hand. When I touched my arm, it felt very strange, as if the body was not my own.

And when I move, it simply feels like I'm numb, but what's more real is that I feel like there are thousands of ants crawling on my body, constantly eating my flesh!

"ah!!!"

In this tough state, I couldn't help roaring, and finally took the first step with my left leg. Following that, my body slowly regained consciousness. However, no one knew that such a simple action , my body is already covered with sweat!

Then, I looked around, and in vain I found that those eyes seemed to have changed!

Unintentionally, the direction in which those eyes were looking was towards me, and the expression in their eyes seemed to have changed. They were no longer as easy-going as before, but instead they were fierce, looking at me fiercely. This feeling, It was as if I was being warned that my actions and actions seemed to offend them.

But after a while, I could clearly see that their eyes seemed to be congested with blood, and countless bloodshot eyes came out. Their eyes were so ferocious, as if they wanted to eat me alive.

At that moment, my body regained its ability to move, and I didn't have time to think about it too much. I came to Xu Jinxiu's side immediately. I shook my body and called her loudly, trying to get her out of the current illusion.

"Xu Jinxiu! Jinxiu! Xu Jinxiu, wake up, wake up quickly!"

Under my repeated shouts, Xu Jinxiu seemed to slowly regain her senses. I was delighted, it seemed to have worked.

Slowly, Xu Jinxiu recovered. She played with her body and breathed heavily. Then I came to Liu Bao's side. I didn't think much about the same sex at all. I raised my hand and slapped Liu Bao. Baoshan fell to the ground.

"Ouch, I...CAO!"

Liu Bao cursed, covered his face and looked at me.

"Brother Chen! You are too shady, can't you be gentler to me?"

I pointed to the other side, where the coffin lid had fallen.

"Go there quickly. We have to find a way to close the coffin. This guy's resentment is too deep!"

Liu Bao let out a hey and sat up from the ground, but his body's senses had not recovered well, so he staggered over.
