Walked 265 steps and stopped, facing the Masonry and shouted, "Chang Zhi, open the door."
At this moment, a crevice suddenly appeared on the originally seamless mountain surface.
Gu Lili took out a flashlight from her bag, attached it to her head, and slowly walked inside.
Once inside, she shouted again, "Chang Zhi, close the door."
The door automatically closed again, Gu Lili marveled, it was still voice-controlled. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ novelFɪre.net
Continuing further inside, there indeed was a coffin placed there.
Gu Lili took one look and saw it was a black coffin.
Actually, the color of the coffin matters.
Like the color of the Black Coffin signifies that it’s used for the deceased who died of diseases, violence, suicide, or other premature, abnormal deaths.
She stepped forward and pushed open the coffin; inside was a skeleton.
Gu Lili’s eyes landed on a box near her feet, she bent down and took out the box.
Then she closed the coffin and forcefully opened the box, inside it contained black pill-like objects.
Seeing the color, Gu Lili didn’t feel like eating them.
She took out a bottle of mineral water from her bag, and with the water, swallowed all eight black spherical pills from the box.
The taste was bitter from her mouth to her heart.
After finishing, Gu Lili felt slightly uneasy and regretful.
She pondered, wondering if she could have lived well without eating them, and now she might just drop dead because of them.
That would really be courting death!
This man is just a stranger, why should she trust his words so much?
Yet, Gu Lili somehow felt he truly wasn’t a bad person.
However, she quickly dismissed that thought.
Because she started vomiting blood.
Her stomach twisted in pain, so painful she lay on the ground writhing.
"No," the man’s voice suddenly sounded, "Don’t worry, I won’t harm you, it will be over in half an hour. This is just forming a protective layer in your body, no poison can kill you after this."
"What about something like a tranquilizer?"
The man replied, "This is Poison-proof, not Medical-proof. If it was truly Medical-proof, then you wouldn’t be able to absorb any medication when you’re ill, would that be smart?"
Gu Lili in agony spoke, "I feel I trusted you too easily, what if you were really instructed to kill me?"
"I will not let your trust be misplaced this time, and, I was murdered at my death, I know what it feels like to be harmed."
"How long have you been dead?"
"What?!!!" Gu Lili felt dizzy, "You’ve been dead for over 700 years? That’s too long, isn’t it? How come I didn’t realize it, you should be very traditional after all these 700 years?"
"I have wandered the mortal world for many years now, I have already adapted to the great changes in humanity. After my resurrection, I can live just like a normal person."
"Is your resurrection for revenge?"
"The person who killed me is long dead."
"Do you want to exterminate the descendants of your murderer?"
"No," he denied, "I do not wish to involve innocent people, I just want to live again."
"I’m really worried that the messengers of the underworld will take you away soon."
He fell silent, "Do you feel a bit better now?"
Gu Lili came to her senses and realized that was indeed the case.
"What did you give me to eat?"
"This is something I developed; I had my parents place it in my coffin before I died because it was something I devoted myself to researching. This cave was also a place I often stayed alone in the past."
