Chapter 52 A flash of inspiration

Did he bring himself here just to verify this? If that was the case, then he would risk his life to die with his grandson.

"You... are you kidding me?" Wu Xiaoxie twitched the corner of his mouth and calmly moved away from Lao Chu, "How can such a ridiculous thing as immortality be true? Are you possessed by something evil?"

He sneered at what Lao Itch said about immortality and living beings, and had no time to think about it in his mind. At the same time, he suspected that this "Old Itch" was also transformed into the ghost that turned into a "wooden fish" before.

Lao Itch stood up suddenly, making Wu Xiaoxie tremble with fright, and then he suddenly burst out laughing, looking extremely terrifying in the quiet space.

Wu Xiaoxie felt his scalp tightening when he heard that. Just when he was considering whether to rush forward and give this guy a knife and then run away, Lao Itch stopped laughing and said to Wu Xiaoxie: "You said you saw it before This black shadow looks like a wooden fish, but what I see is my mother’s appearance, don’t you think this is strange?”

"Is there anything strange about this?" Wu Xiaoxie said indifferently, suppressing his doubts in his heart without showing it on his face, "Maybe it's because the air here is poisonous and can cause hallucinations."

He had an intuition that Lao Chu knew something, and perhaps it had something to do with his purpose of bringing him here.

Now that things have happened, he is too lazy to guess and play charades with Lao Itch anymore, so he simply goes straight to the point, "What do you want to do with all your efforts to bring me here? Is the benefit you mentioned just this big corpse cocoon? No matter how valuable this thing is, Ten of us combined are not enough to lift him up."

"Of course not." Old Itch said, "Don't you think that the things we encountered along the way are too coincidental?"

"What?" Wu Xiaoxie asked cooperatively.

Lao Itch continued: "We followed the chronological order of entering the ancient tomb and took a look at the weird places. We came in from the cave and met the Zheluo Salmon in the mine. This is deep in the Qinling Mountains, sparsely populated and lacking in food. Logically speaking, There shouldn't be such a big fish because it can't survive."

"This is the first point. The second point is that we encountered the intermittent eruption of hot springs when we came down from the secret door. We are in a mountain, and this is not a volcanic zone. There is no reason for the water temperature to be so high that it can scald people to death, right? ?”

Wu Xiaoxie nodded, feeling that what Lao Itch said made sense, "You continue."

"This third point is particularly important." Lao Itch paused and said, "The first time I went out from here, I didn't encounter so many dangers, including those stingrays, big monkeys, and the living tree vines and It’s completely different, I’ve never seen it before, it looks like an extremely ordinary ancient tomb, otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to get out alive.”

"The fourth point is this corpse cocoon." Lao Itchy pointed at the black shadow, "We both looked at it at the same time, but we saw different faces. What does this mean?"

This is a very critical step. Lao Itch deliberately guided Wu Xiaoxie to speak out on his own, so that he would be more likely to succeed.

Wu Xiaoxie stared at the black shadow and fell into deep thought. Yes, according to what Lao Itch said, all of this was too much of a coincidence. How could one person be safe while a group of people experienced life and death crises several times?

It can't be that this ancient tomb has its own consciousness and sees what people order, and doesn't like to organize groups to visit its territory.

Wu Xiaoxie frowned, and suddenly an idea came to his mind.

"I see!"
