Uncle Jiu's Senior Brother

Chapter 141 Entering the Tomb

"Come on, who's going first?"

Although Uncle Jiu was talking to everyone, his eyes were glancing at Lu Li.

Lu Li rolled his eyes and thought, I am the one exploring the way again.

Yes, you are the master, you have the final say.

"I'll go."

After saying that, Lu Li jumped into the river.

Shi Jian on the shore said to Uncle Jiu, "Junior brother, can't you be nicer to Xiao Li? You always order him to do this and that."

Uncle Jiu laughed secretly in his heart, you don’t understand the way we get along as master and disciple.

You are still talking about me. How good have you been to your own son?

He slaps me at every turn.

“Brother, in this unfamiliar environment, it is safest for Xiao Leaving. I know this kid too well.

If you are not sure about something, even if you throw it into the water, it will swim back."

Uncle Jiu knew all too well how cautious Lu Li was, as he had raised him from childhood to adulthood.

When Lu Li was thirteen years old.

Uncle Jiu took him to a family who was moving a grave.

The coffin of the victim’s relative has just been dug out.

Lu Li called him aside and said that he wanted to put some talismans on the coffin.

Uncle Jiu asked him why in confusion.

As a result, Lu Li replied that he was afraid that the corpses inside would turn into zombies.

Uncle Jiu was so angry that he kicked him in the butt on the spot.

That was the coffin of someone's great-grandfather, and it needed to be moved back to the ancestral tomb.

They have been dead for hundreds of years, and it is hard to say whether there are any bones or residues inside them, and they have turned into zombies.

How do bone residues turn into zombies? Let me see how you turn one.

From this point on, Uncle Jiu had a deep understanding of Lu Li's caution.

If Lu Li knew this, he would definitely cry out that he was wronged.

I had only been wearing it for two or three years at that time.

My mind is still full of various posts on the Internet.

He vaguely remembered which netizen said it.

Uncle Jiu will surely fake his death when his grave is moved.

So whenever Uncle Jiu gets the job of relocating graves, he will do it.

No matter what, Lu Li had to put some corpse-suppressing talismans on people.

For a while, no one was willing to ask Uncle Jiu to move the grave.

I asked you to change the house for my loved one, not to tie him to the bed.

Until Uncle Jiu gave Lu Li a meal of stir-fried pork on a bamboo board.

Lu Li didn't dare to do anything stupid anymore.

Now when I think of Uncle Jiu, I can't help but laugh out loud.

This made Shi Jian and Ao Tianlong look at Uncle Jiu strangely.

Your apprentice's life or death is unknown down there.

But you laughed out loud on the shore.

You two must have some deep hatred.

It is said that when Lu Li went down to the bottom of the river, he discovered that the underground river was at least fifteen meters deep.

It was freezing cold and there were no living creatures in the water.

Fortunately, Lu Li used his magic power to block the river water, so he was able to dive down.

After expanding his spiritual sense, Lu Li soon found a cave entrance on one side of the mountain wall.

The entrance of the cave is large enough for four or five people to pass side by side.

Lu Li probed his spiritual sense inside and found that it was a cave extending upwards.

However, it was pitch black at the back, and there seemed to be some kind of isolation formation that could prevent people with cultivation from spying.

I guess the people who built this tomb had anticipated this possibility.

After confirming that this cave was the entrance, Lu Li floated up without staying any longer.

"Wow!"

The sound of water attracted everyone's attention.

Uncle Jiu was shocked, and then the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

As expected, it was the eldest disciple Lu Li who returned.

"How's it going? Did you find it?"

Shi Jian asked anxiously.

Lu Li shook his clothes.

"We found a cave fifteen meters underwater. That should be the entrance."

"Fifteen meters!"

Ao Tianlong said with a frown.

If he was in his prime, this depth would be no problem, but now he was seriously injured.

Not to mention fifteen meters, I can’t even go down five meters.

Lu Li saw Ao Tianlong's worry and naturally couldn't leave him here.

"Uncle Tianlong, I will take you down there in a while. With my level of cultivation, it won't be a problem for me to take one person with me."

Ao Tianlong smiled at Lu Li gratefully.

After the discussion, everyone started to go into the water one by one.

Those with the lowest cultivation level here are in the middle stage of Qi training.

They have all practiced breath-holding techniques, so there won't be any problems even if they don't breathe for fifteen or sixteen minutes.

Lu Li walked in front holding Ao Tianlong's arm.

As the diving depth increases, the water pressure also increases.

Lu Li put the magic shield and Lian Ao Tianlong inside to protect him.

After two or three minutes, I finally returned to the cave I had just visited.

He found that all the disciples behind him followed him.

Lu Li rushed into the cave without stopping.

"call!"

Passing through an upward waterway.

Lu Li and Ao Tianlong surfaced.

The stone walls of this cave are flashing with colorful lights.

The light in the cave makes it look like a magical world.

The place where they came up was a well-shaped water cave.

The people behind also jumped up one after another.

After coming up, everyone looked at the magical scene in the cave with curiosity.

"So beautiful, Master."

Hua Ling opened her eyes wide. Girls are naturally defenseless against these gems.

"Are these all night-shining pearls?"

Uncle Jiu was also shocked by the generosity of Emperor Muzong of Liao.

“How could that be? Only one third of them are, and the rest should be gems.

These gems will naturally reflect colorful brilliance when illuminated by the light of the Night Pearl."

"That's incredible. How much would so many gems cost?"

Ao Tianlong, like Uncle Jiu, rarely has enough money.

"If you like it, dig it up. Anyway, it will never see the light of day and who knows who will get the benefit in the end."

Lu Li said indifferently.

The Maoshan disciples also showed joy, thinking that they were going to become rich this time.

As soon as the words fell, Ao Tianlong and Uncle Jiu said in unison:

"No."

Seeing that Uncle Jiu also disagreed, Ao Tianlong signaled Uncle Jiu to speak first.

“We are cultivators, not tomb robbers. We cannot do such things that damage our virtue.

If it is a magical instrument, it makes sense to prevent the treasure from being covered in dust.

But treasure is definitely not an option.

Have you forgotten the Maoshan precepts?

The first step in practicing Taoism is to cultivate your mind.

Xiao Li, don’t joke about this anymore.”

Lu Li quickly agreed, as he was used to being casual.

If we do this this time, it will set a bad example for the Maoshan disciples.

This kind of thinking must be interrupted.

"Junior Brother Lin said it well, did you hear it? If anyone dares to be greedy, don't blame me, Shi Jian, for being unkind.

If you can't even overcome your desires, what's the point of practicing Taoism?"

All the Maoshan disciples present looked ashamed and afraid.

However, he never dared to steal the treasure in the tomb again.

Many of them were adopted by Maoshan when they were young.

Or they were sent to Maoshan when their families could no longer support them when they were young.

The loneliness and poverty in their childhood made it difficult for them to control their desires when they saw so much treasure.

After Uncle Jiu’s words, there was also the suppression of Shi Jian’s identity as the elder of the Xingtang.

I have come to my senses at this moment.

"Xiao Li, this shouldn't look like a tomb door."

Shi Jian looked around and asked:

"It really doesn't look like it. This place looks like an escape route no matter how you look at it.

Tomb door, there is no door here.

I guess the builders left a way out for themselves."

"The true owner of a royal tomb wants to go to heaven in a dignified manner after death. How can an emperor dig a hole in the ground and go to heaven? That is not right."

"puff!"

"Ha ha!"

Although what Uncle Jiu said made sense, it just sounded a little off.

Digging a hole in the ground to ascend to heaven, only Uncle Jiu could think of this.

Everyone present laughed.

It broke the dull atmosphere just now.

The group had not eaten or drunk anything since morning, and now they finally entered the tomb.

No longer in such a hurry to travel.

So Lu Li asked them to have a good rest, dry their clothes and eat something before leaving.

Take out spare clothes and firewood from the storage talisman.

A small fire was soon started.

Before lighting the fire, Lu Li took a special look and found that there was air circulation here.

It can be seen that there are other roads leading to the outside in this tomb.

I saw Lu Li taking things out from the storage talisman frequently.

Ao Tianlong was amazed.

It is so convenient to have this thing. I don’t have to carry a lot of bags when I go out.

Seeing Ao Tianlong's interested look, Lu Li, who was thinking about how to thank him for his help, came up with an idea.

I might as well draw a talisman for him when I get out.

"what!"

At this moment.

Suddenly, a scream from Hua Ling was heard not far away.

She just said she wanted to go to the bathroom.

Lu Li thought that there would be no danger as long as he and others were here.

I let her go, but I didn't expect something bad would happen so soon.

Lu Li and Uncle Jiu quickly used their body skills to rush over.
