Ye Leng’an also took a closer look. The murals only described the origin of the curse. After Su Yin died and left behind a curse, there was no follow-up.
“It seems like they found out from somewhere else.” Ye Leng’an shook her head. “However, their method is definitely wrong. How can the curse left behind by a descendant of the Sorcerer Tribe be broken so easily? Moreover, as a descendant of the Sorcerer Tribe, Su Yin would not use such a method to break the curse.”
It was said that the ancient Sorcerer Tribe was the incarnation of Pangu, the ancestor of mankind, so it was absolutely impossible for them to use such a cruel method to break the curse.
However, she didn’t expect Su Yin to be a descendant of the Sorcerer Tribe. No wonder she had such an ability. It was a pity that she met a scumbag like Duo Benli. Otherwise, she would have had a wonderful life.
“Such an evil method to break the curse means the people in this village are not good people.” Huangfu Ruiling said indifferently, “Moreover, they seem not to find such a method to break the curse until the recent hundred years.”
“Forget about it.” Ye Leng’an waved her hand, her tone carrying a hint of interest. “Compared to this curse, I’m actually more curious about where the Golden Gu King went.”
She had heard about the Golden Gu King from Duo Ji before. However, that was just a hearsay, and she had never seen it. Duo Ji did not release the Golden Gu King just now. And the murals on the wall did not mention the whereabouts of the Golden Gu King.
Duo Benli killed Su Yin for the sake of the Golden Gu King, but from the murals, he did not get the Golden Gu King in the end. That meant that after Su Yin died, the Golden Gu King also disappeared.
“Let’s not dwell on this for now.” Huangfu Ruiling said, “Let’s continue moving forward to see if there’s an exit.”
Although she was a little curious, she was a decisive person. She immediately cast aside her wandering thoughts and walked away.
In the narrow tunnel, the two of them kept walking forward, but they did not see a trace of light, nor did they see any end. If it was an ordinary person, he or she would have a mental breakdown. However, it was obvious that Ye Leng’an and Huangfu Ruiling were not ordinary people. The two of them walked side by side without a trace of anxiety. They looked so calm and relaxed as if they were not walking in a dark and deep tunnel, but taking a leisurely walk in the courtyard.
Finally, after walking for an unknown period of time, a stone wall appeared in front of them. There was no other way.
“What should we do now?” Looking at the stone wall, Ye Leng’an asked tentatively, “Why don’t we smash this wall?”
Since there was no way out, they might as well create one themselves. She felt that this was not a bad choice.
Huangfu Ruiling frowned and looked at her speechlessly. “Are you sure?
“I’m not sure.” She scratched her head and smiled. “Alright! I was just joking.
After all, the atmosphere was too heavy now. I just wanted to relieve the tension by making a joke!”
An unknown light flickered in Huangfu Ruiling’s eyes when he saw the mischievous look that was rare to be seen on her face. Then, he said, “Alright, let’s not make a scene. This is definitely not the end. There must be a booby trap there. Let’s look for it first!”
She shrugged and didn’t say anything else.
They began to fumble around. Soon, she found a protruding rock.
“Huangfu Ruiling, come and take a look.” Ye Leng’an called out, “Look, this is mobile. Should we try it?”
He came to her side and protected her without leaving a trace. Then, he said,
“You can give it a try.”
She didn’t notice his actions. She pressed down on the stone excitedly, wanting to see what would be waiting for them.
Speaking of which, this was the first time she had encountered such a thing since she returned to this world. She thought it was quite interesting. Of course, she also felt frustrated after failing miserably in a very easy task..
