Chapter 252 Ruins
Although they obtained the method to clear the grotto, the gang's team was not happy at all.
Who hasn't done something bad?
Is that something you can just say? Major incidents lead to losing your head, minor incidents lead to losing face, and how are you supposed to get by in the underworld after that?
Xiao Yuan's face suddenly darkened. She was the least willing to look back on the past.
Although the rules for clearing the level were outrageous, at least there was no danger to life, and it would be a lot of fun if everyone played together. Yes, the scheming Tianxia Guihuo, the taciturn Zhao Chenghuang, the seemingly soft and cute but actually calculating Sun Miaomiao, Hongji Ge representing the Jiangpu Elder, and the seemingly scholarly but scatterbrained Shen Xiahou Aotian… Zhang Yuanqing glanced at his teammates, and suddenly an idea popped into his head.
Tianxia Guihuo said quickly, "Xiahou Aotian, come back first, I have a suggestion."
Xiahou Aotian stopped where he was. He had already endured it once, and he would not be attacked if he did not continue to move forward.
"What's the suggestion?" Xiahou Aotian asked.
"If repentance can clear the grotto, we don't need to go together at all. You take Little Red Riding Hood, and we hide inside," Tianxia Guihuo said.
"No one can hear what you say, and we can avoid repenting and revealing our secrets."
He emphasized the word "secrets," hoping that this detached teammate who claimed to be the protagonist would realize that he was, after all, a mortal, and different from the story's protagonist who was full of positive energy.
Xiahou Aotian understood Tianxia Guihuo's hint, pondered for a moment, and felt it made sense. After all, it wouldn't be nice to reveal something like stealing his father's private money to pay off debts.
"Good idea!" Xiahou Aotian turned around and returned. "Yuanshi Tianzun, give me the red hat."
Zhang Yuanqing ignored him and looked at Xiao Yuan instead. "You go into the hat and wait for a while."
Every evil profession has a painful, desperate, or dark past, the pain in life that they are least willing to revisit. Xiao Yuan did not repent during the master's sermon, indicating that she did not want to make the matter in her heart public.
Xiao Yuan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, giving Zhang Yuanqing a gentle look before disappearing from everyone's sight.
Then, Zhang Yuanqing ignored Xiahou Aotian's outstretched hand and put Little Red Riding Hood into his inventory, saying,
"We are all upright gentlemen who have not done anything shameful. Follow me straight in."
Everyone looked at him with a "are you out of your mind?" expression.
But Zhang Yuanqing seemed to be serious, striding into the grotto.
"You..." Sun Miaomiao exclaimed in a short voice behind him. Is this something a person does?
Watching Yuanshi Tianzun step into the grotto, Tianxia Guihuo frowned, realizing Yuanshi Tianzun's plan first. Did he want to take the opportunity to test whether anyone in the team was obsessed with power and beauty and gradually falling, or whether anyone had become a mole of the Dark Night Rose?
Yuanshi Tianzun is trying to probe us? Zhao Chenghuang had a similar idea.
But unlike Tianxia Guihuo's conspiracy theory, he believed that Yuanshi Tianzun was doing this to strengthen the bond between team members and to grasp each other's handles.
Because of the Qin Feng Academy dungeon trip, they became grasshoppers on the same rope. At the same time, they joined the Undead Return gang, and their relationship became increasingly close, far exceeding the relationship of friends and colleagues.
...More like a small team working together and sharing benefits.
But on closer thought, they didn't really know each other well. Besides knowing Sun Miaomiao since childhood, Zhao Chenghuang didn't know much about Tianxia Guihuo, Xiahou Aotian, or even Yuanshi Tianzun.
They hadn't known each other for long, and they hadn't had much interaction.
If they weren't bound by interests, they wouldn't have come together at all.
Friendship takes time. As the saying goes, time reveals people's hearts. Without the accumulation of time, how can you know each other inside and out?
But now was an opportunity.
Zhang Yuanqing took one step at a time, shouting loudly:
"I once used a telescope to spy on my uncle going to a hair salon and used this to threaten him for money."
He took three steps, and nothing happened.
He immediately made a judgment and said, turning his head,
"The so-called shameful deeds should refer to illegal and undisciplined behavior, things that violate conscience and morality. Pranks are not included, unless they are extremely bad and have serious consequences."
"Everyone, be careful, don't say the wrong thing, don't lie, people will die."
After saying that, he took another three steps and shouted, "I shouldn't have stolen property and blamed it on a classmate who bullied me, causing him to have to transfer schools."
Was this kid so insidious since he was a child? Threatening his uncle and framing his classmates… Guan Ya and the others were stunned.
Tianxia Guihuo sighed. "Let's go in. He's clearly asking us to be frank and open."
Everyone hesitated for a while, then gnashed their teeth in anger.
Hongji Ge took the lead in rushing to the grotto, holding his head high and chest out, saying:
"I killed someone for the first time at the age of 14. I chopped down a double agent of the Black Dragon Society, whose name seemed to be Ah Hui... Oh, yes, I broke the leg of a rich second-generation classmate in junior high school because he was chasing after the girl I liked... I once threw an old debtor who didn't repay high-interest loans into the river, I forgot his name... I engaged in high-interest lending, collected protection fees, violently injured people, and bribed officials..." He counted his sins while striding forward, soon surpassing Zhang Yuanqing and successfully reaching the exit.
He had suddenly become the most outstanding guy in the team.
The second guy was Princess Yinyao.
She held a small loudspeaker, strode forward, and a slow, unhurried voice came from the loudspeaker:
"At the age of eight, I pushed my younger brother into the lotus pond and framed Zhang, feeling very guilty... At the age of ten, I pushed Liu, who was vying with my mother for favor, into the well... At the age of sixteen, I disliked a maid and ordered her death. I disliked a family slave and ordered his death. I disliked my father and ordered the death of his concubine, assassinated officials of the imperial court, and eliminated political enemies for my father..."
Are these two devils... The team members were stunned.
Each of these events was simply ruthless and cold-blooded.
Considering that Princess Yinyao was a high-ranking member of a feudal dynasty, they thought that Hongji Ge was even more ruthless.
Hongji Ge and Princess Yinyao successively arrived at the exit and looked back, the others were still wandering outside the grotto, and the poisonous smoke had already floated through the passage and spread to the edge of the grotto.
Hongji Ge shouted:
"Isn't it just killing people and stealing goods, what's there to hesitate about? The poisonous smoke is already licking Asano Ryo's back."
Asano Ryo "Ah" exclaimed, jumping into the grotto as if electrocuted, and said as if she was going all out:
"After I became a Lingjing Xingzhe, I ambushed my cousin who often laughed at me, and accidentally severely injured her. I, I have always regretted it."
After speaking, she carefully looked at everyone, and found that her teammates' expressions were normal, as if what she said was just a trivial matter.
… Asano Ryo exhaled a breath of relief.
Zhao Chenghuang stepped into the grotto without expression, saying as he walked: "When I was a child, because I was jealous of Ling Jun, I instigated other children of the sect master to bully him."
Zhang Yuanqing, who was in front, suddenly stopped: "Zhao Chenghuang, you have done such a thing? You are very jealous, I am going to tell Ling Jun."
Zhao Chenghuang said coldly, "Whatever."
Just after he finished speaking, he heard Sun Miaomiao behind him:
"A few years ago, Zhao Chenghuang and I had a dispute on the forum because of disagreements. I changed my account and sprayed him for three days, spraying him until he became autistic, and then pretended to be a good person in reality to comfort him. He was very grateful to me. As a friend, I have a little bit of guilt."
Zhao Chenghuang was struck by lightning, looking at her in disbelief, with a sense of bewilderment and pain of being deceived by a scumbag.
"After joining the official team for three years, I illegally made five million," Tianxia Guihuo took three steps forward, "After being transferred to Songhai, I accepted two million in bribes."
Three more steps.
Everyone watched him silently. Tianxia Guihuo kept a straight face and explained:
"The Five Elements Alliance is no different from the officialdom. To get ahead, you must accept other people's money and give money to others. I am just adapting to the environment."
"Explanation is just a cover-up," Xiahou Aotian muttered.
The corner of Tianxia Guihuo's mouth twitched.
The poisonous smoke rushed towards Guan Ya. She glared at the ungrateful man, took a deep breath, quickly entered the grotto, and lowered her voice:
"In middle school, I colluded with Fu Qingyang to buy a cursed prop from the black market and used it to curse my mother. My mother almost died in a car accident and lay in the hospital for half a month. To this day, she still thinks she was plotted against by a competitor."
Her voice was very low, but everyone present was a Saint, with keen ears and clear eyes, and they heard clearly.
Everyone looked at Guan Ya with strange expressions.
Sun Miaomiao opened her mouth wide, "What is your feud with your mother? Are you not her biological daughter?"
Guan Ya said angrily, "It's none of your business."
Sun Miaomiao curled her lips. Seeing the poisonous mist surging behind her, she hurried forward and said, "I posted a lot of posts on the forum discrediting and attacking Zu Ji, leading a wave of cyberbullying, because I felt that she and the Demon Lord were in love, making the Taiyi Sect lose face, and, and a little bit of jealousy, I regret it very much."
Tianxia Guihuo: "Maintaining an improper relationship with several female subordinates, each taking what they needed, never loving them."
Xiahou Aotian: "When I was in junior high school, my dad wanted to have another child, so I put special contraceptives in his wine every day. He worked hard for three years without success and had to give up the second child. He seems to be infertile now."
Asano Ryo: "When I don't have enough pocket money, I use the Asano family's name to ask the children of the chaebol family for protection fees."
Zhao Chenghuang: "I accidentally killed an Orderly Walker and didn't dare to admit it to the organization. I still feel guilty about it."
Zhang Yuanqing said painfully: "If Demon Eye was here, you would all be dead..."
With each sentence of repentance, everyone moved forward in an orderly manner, and many old things were revealed.
People like Zhang Yuanqing, who had no integrity, had done many illegal things to his uncle.
Sun Miaomiao's crimes mostly involved cyberbullying, cyberbullying this person today, cyberbullying that person tomorrow, and cyberbullying grandpa the day after tomorrow.
…. The things that Tianxia Guihuo confessed were the most serious, involving power and color transactions, accepting and giving bribes, and doing many "routine operations" in the officialdom.
Guan Ya's crimes were mostly concentrated on her parents, writing anonymous reports to the Heavenly Punishment organization to report her father.
Secretly took photos of her mother’s *** and then sent the photos to her mother, creating panic to retaliate against her mother’s domestic violence.
When she met a female classmate who targeted her while studying, she used her family's connections to knock on her, but once almost caused a human life.
In a few minutes, everyone had a deeper understanding of each other, and saw the dark side of each other's hearts.
Finally, they left the grotto and arrived at the exit.
"Phew..."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, including Zhang Yuanqing.
Although he admitted that he was not a worry-free child and had done many wrong things, he might not remember all the things he did when he was young, and he was not sure whether frequently being a craftsman and sharing erotic pictures with his aunt was considered a shameful thing.
If the diameter of the grotto was ten meters longer, he would have to confess the series of events of saving Demon Eye and the Demon Lord's successor.
"Finally passed," Sun Miaomiao exhaled weakly.
"Yes, it's all recorded," Princess Yinyao patted her purse.
……
Huh? Everyone looked at her in unison.
Zhang Yuanqing's forehead veins jumped, and he quickly said, "Although she has spirituality, she sometimes says strange things and does strange things. Just ignore it."
Princess Yinyao cooperated by straightening her back, motionless, pretending to be a mindless yin corpse.
Except for Guan Ya, everyone barely believed his statement.
Zhang Yuanqing sighed. Perhaps because she had been in the human world for a long time, Princess Yinyao had gradually regained her humanity, and her virtue of being indifferent to fame and wealth, which she had shown during her centuries of traveling around the world, was slowly revealed.
Oh, it's just playing!
She provoked the queens, Lingxi, and Guan Ya to fight in the villa, and did all kinds of mischief outside, speaking her mind freely, being able to pretend to be stupid and be wise, being able to play and catch jokes.
It was a bit of a headache.
Zhang Yuanqing took out Little Red Riding Hood, shook it, and the tall and cold Xiao Yuan "fell" out.
She looked around and nodded slightly when she saw that everyone was not injured: "Very good!"
She glanced at Guan Ya again.
This mixed-race daughter of the Fu family had a cold expression on her face, almost writing "unhappy" on her face, and did not even look at her boyfriend.
Obviously, Yuanshi Tianzun's concern when she was poisoned and only taking care of her alone had made Guan Ya jealous.
Xiao Yuan "heh" and smiled.
Correspondingly, the smooth veins on Guan Ya's forehead twitched.
"Continue to move forward!" Zhang Yuanqing pretended not to see the two women's intrigue, shouted a slogan, and set off with his teammates, who were not in a high mood.
The three-meter-wide passage twisted and turned, with oil bowls placed in the niches. There were no corpses along the way, indicating that there were no traps in this passage.
Sure enough, after walking for more than ten minutes, they did not encounter any danger.
"There's wind..." Xiao Yuan said suddenly.
Turning a corner, bright light came into view ahead, and the view suddenly opened up.
They saw a naturally formed cave, with half of the blue sky above their heads, and the other half was a horizontal rock wall, with vines like beaded curtains hanging down.
The cave was full of broken buildings, broken mechanical creations, and a deep pool at the foot of the rock wall. A rickety waterwheel stood by the pool, and bamboo pipes for diverting water were scattered around the waterwheel.
…. In addition, wooden mechanical arrow tubes were embedded in the rock wall, but they had long been decayed due to lack of maintenance.
"When I used the wind to check before, I didn't see this cave." Zhang Yuanqing's eye sockets surged with darkness, and he activated Spirit Devour, scanning the huge cave, "There is no aura of activity of yin objects."
Guan Ya pressed her finger on her forehead, and circles of pale white ripples spread out, "There is no aura of activity of living things."
Everyone then went down the path of weeds. After walking a few steps, Guan Ya found several skeletons in the grass. After examining them, she said:
"The armor worn by the dead is the same as the ones outside. They should be Jin soldiers. The other two have no armor. Judging from the decayed clothes, they are probably disciples of the Mo Sect."
Xiahou Aotian habitually touched his chin and analyzed:
"So the truth about the destruction of the Mo Sect is very clear. It was done by the Jin people. The Jin people took the legendary treasure from the Mo Sect, and then led their troops south, turning the Northern Song Dynasty into the Southern Song Dynasty."
"The reign title is not even known yet, your statement is too arbitrary." Guan Ya thought, "However, the demise of the Mo Sect is inseparable from the Jin people. I think the treasure is still in the Mo Sect, otherwise the S-level difficulty of the dungeon would not be reasonable."
Tianxia Guihuo said:
"The Mo Sect is located in the southwest, and the Jin soldiers can attack here, indicating that the Northern Song Dynasty no longer exists. This sealed history should have happened in the Southern Song Dynasty."
"Also, it is likely that the Mo Sect was destroyed by the Jin soldiers only on the surface, otherwise the main mission would be too simple. Now it depends on how much information we can collect."
Zhang Yuanqing "Um" and said, "Separate and search."
The cave was not small, with more than 30 buildings, most of which had collapsed. The ones that had not collapsed were also crumbling. The wooden structures were rotten and relied on rammed earth walls to hold up.
They found many corpses, Jin soldiers and Mo Sect disciples entangled together, some even with their bones "fused" together, showing how tragic the battle was.
After searching around, there were no discoveries. In addition, there was no way to go.
This natural cave seemed to be the core of the Mo Sect. Everyone turned around and did not see a way to get to another place.
"I touched the rock wall all the way, and didn't find any mechanisms. There's no way to go," Xiahou Aotian said.
"Have you searched the ruins?" Zhang Yuanqing asked.
"I used spirit servants to pass through walls and objects, and touched everything. There are no hidden compartments or mechanisms," Sun Miaomiao shook her head.
The dungeon map was definitely not completed, but they were in trouble.
They couldn't find the way to the next level.
"I found some interesting things." Guan Ya, out of spite, didn't look at Zhang Yuanqing, and pointed to the pool at the foot of the rock wall, "Look carefully there."
