The grimace Taoist priest guessed the owner of the blood almost immediately. They fought with three living people in total, and neither he nor He Siniang was injured, so the only one left was Zhao Ermu.
The grimace Taoist guessed correctly that the blood was indeed Zhao Ermu's, but he fell into the coffin at the time and did not witness the attack on Zhao Ermu. But the Grimace Taoist also saw other clues from this - why can Zhao Ermu's blood activate the bronze mirror? Could it be...this is the blood of the blue dragon? !
Did Zhao Ermu lie about his grandma again? Is he actually the real Dragon-bearing Man?
The grimace-faced Taoist priest frowned, wishing he could run out now to find out what happened, but the situation did not give him this chance. Deep in the tomb passage, as the last light of the fire dove was about to go out, a figure suddenly appeared near the tomb door.
"It's this damn old thing again!" The grim-faced Taoist priest looked at the sneaky figure and immediately recognized it as the crouching old lady Qi. The old witch didn't know what her purpose was, and she wanted to return to this tomb again and again, and she was always alone. She didn't see Fourth Master Xue and Miss Hongyu around her... Could it be that they encountered trouble on the road ahead? Has everyone else already folded? Is the old witch actually preparing to escape when she returns?
Without thinking too much, the grimace Taoist priest hurriedly hid behind the bronze coffin before Mrs. Qi noticed him. At the same time, he filled his wrist with crossbow nails and waited with bated breath for Mrs. Qi to approach.
There was silence in the tomb for an instant, and the only sound left in the ears of the grimace Taoist priest was the crackling sound of burning oil. However, if he continued to listen carefully, there could be sounds of light footsteps not far away, like a cat's footsteps.
The Taoist priest with a grimace glanced at his mouth and said to himself, old witch, your body is quite light. It's all thanks to the poor Taoist's extraordinary ears, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to catch you.
The grimace Taoist priest judged from the sound of footsteps that Mrs. Qi was preparing to approach the bronze coffin, but she was walking very slowly. The unexpected sight in the tomb must have made her even more cautious.
Just after a while, the grim-faced Taoist priest had not waited for the sound of Mrs. Qi approaching. He couldn't help but tilted his head and glanced out, only to find that there was a very long shadow on the tomb wall. It seemed that the old witch was here. Stopped near the tomb wall.
"Hmph! This old thing is really an ugly woman walking at night, so be cautious." The grim-faced Taoist priest had no choice but to keep calm and wait, but he kept thinking in his mind. He gradually felt that Old Mrs. Qi was not running away, but had another purpose. Because there was only one way out, and the exit had long been guarded by the Zhao brothers, even if Old Mrs. Qi escaped from here, she would be dead end outside. One thing, what's more, even if there is someone to help Douwai, it is nothing more than touching the golden captain Ye Buyan and Xun Buhuan. The trace of their sect master Xue Siye is still unknown, so how can they obey his order to send an old woman?
After thinking about this, the grimace Taoist priest basically confirmed an idea in his mind, that is, Mrs. Qi did not consider an escape route during this trip. She only wanted to steal the hair mausoleum so that she could find the secret of immortality. Otherwise, she would not be able to let her tail go. And rashly entered a tomb without knowing the details. Of course, it’s hard to say whether Fourth Master Xue or Xu Yimo is in the same position. Judging from the manpower left outside, Fourth Master Xue must have considered a retreat. However, he and True Lord Yin Yang Xu Yimo both have two eyes on the way forward. Discredit, this can be seen from Xu Yimo who died violently, and Old Monster Ning who went crazy halfway. The Taoist priest with a grimace guessed that most of them had their own agenda. At least Mrs. Qi had her own agenda. After all, she was the only one alive at this time. The lives of Fourth Master Xue and Hongyu girl were still uncertain. Looking back now, this group of people had their own agenda. What else can people do if they don't support Mrs. Qi?
The more the grimace Taoist thought about it, the more he felt that Mrs. Qi was cruel and ruthless. Compared with her, she was like a living Bodhisattva. It would be a disaster for such a person to live for one more day, but she wanted to live forever. Then she thought about herself and Siniang eating under her hands. It was such a shame that the grimace Taoist priest couldn't help but tremble with his hand wearing the wrist crossbow, so he didn't plan to wait any longer, and slowly turned around behind the coffin, ready to rush out and shoot her to death.
The grim-faced Taoist priest was just about to take action when he suddenly heard a soft cry from the old lady Qi over there, followed by the sound of fast footsteps approaching the bronze coffin.
The grimace-faced Taoist priest hurriedly stopped his movements and turned around to see the slender figure outside getting closer and closer. So he suppressed his impulse and wanted to see what medicine Mrs. Qi was selling in her gourd.
Old Mrs. Qi seemed to have stopped next to the Corpse King. After a while, Old Mrs. Qi's footsteps sounded again. This time she walked to the bronze coffin, and then jumped hard, and her whole body actually jumped onto the bronze coffin.
The grimace Taoist priest was startled and immediately pressed against the wall of the coffin, fearing that the old lady Qi above would find him. After Mrs. Qi jumped onto the bronze coffin, she didn't pay too much attention to her surroundings. Instead, she quickly descended into the stone coffin. Then the coffin began to make a constant sound of rubbing. It seemed that she was looking for something in the coffin.
The grimace Taoist priest listened to the sounds inside the coffin and subconsciously reached out to touch the jade pendant in his arms. He wondered in his heart: Is the old witch looking for this jade pendant?
After waiting quietly for a while, the grimace Taoist priest heard the noise in the coffin getting louder and louder. It seemed that Old Mrs. Qi had not found anything and became impatient. The grimace Taoist priest was even more convinced that Old Mrs. Qi was looking for the jade pendant, but he became even more puzzled - could it be that Old Mrs. Qi wanted to return here just to find this jade pendant? What does a jade pendant have to do with immortality?
At this time, Mrs. Qi had already searched the inside of the sarcophagus. After finding nothing, she began to search for the gaps between the coffins.
The grimace Taoist priest was separated from her by a bronze coffin wall. Not only could he clearly feel her position, but he could even hear Mrs. Qi's furious breathing.
"It seems that this jade pendant is not simple." The grim-faced Taoist priest quickly calculated the current situation, and then a bold plan appeared in his mind. ..
In order to find out the meaning of this jade pendant, Taoist Priest Grimace planned to go to the depths of the tomb to have a look in person, but in order to ensure that he would not lose his retreat, he had to get rid of Mrs. Qi first.
"This old witch must be killed anyway, why don't we send her to the West right now!" The Taoist priest with a grimace made up his mind, arched his body and jumped towards the bronze coffin. Almost as soon as his feet landed on the edge of the coffin, he held his wrist in his hand. The crossbow fired three crossbow spikes in quick succession.
The Taoist Priest with a grimace took a sharp aim, and his target was Old Madam Qi, who was dressed in green robes. Old Madam Qi seemed to be unprepared, squatting motionless between the coffins, letting the crossbow nails hit her body.
The grimace Taoist priest's mouth tilted, and he was about to laugh at his posture, but the sound of the crossbow nail being shot out prevented him from laughing, because the sound did not sound like hitting the flesh at all, but rather the crisp sound of an iron weapon hitting the body. At this time, Ghostface The Taoist priest suddenly glanced out of the corner of his eye and immediately noticed a black shadow quickly running through the gap under him.
