Bai Junjun, upon hearing this, nearly spat out a mouthful of old blood.
The gold and jewels she had longed for were actually in the room next door??
And she had just missed them by a hair’s breadth???
Bai Junjun’s legs gave out, and she collapsed onto the ground, her complexion turning ashen.
Was she really not destined for great wealth in this lifetime?
Bai Junjun couldn’t help but wish she could return to this tomb and take out those jewels and valuables.
At this moment, the moon rose above the willows, and it was unknowingly already past ten at night.
They had descended into the tomb a little after five in the evening, and unexpectedly spent most of the day there, only to end up, aside from capturing Black Six, with virtually nothing to show for their efforts.
At this time, Black Six lay limply on the ground, apparently in a deep coma.
The group rested for a while before getting up to look for the way out.
Of course, Bai Junjun’s Special Ability came in very handy at this time. As long as she released her Special Ability, she could sense where the highest concentration of carbon dioxide was nearby, and by heading in that direction, they could reach Dai County Town.
After all, there was no place nearby more populous than Dai County Town.
With Bai Junjun acting as a living compass, the group no longer wandered aimlessly.
However, even after securing their ultimate victory, Bai Junjun still wore a face full of sorrow.
Looking at Li Wenli with distress, she said, "Shall we go down again and see if there’s any chance of salvage?"
What she referred to naturally were the gold and jewels left inside the mountain’s belly.
Li Wenli helplessly rubbed her head, "We haven’t come away empty-handed, did we? Didn’t we obtain a courtyard?"
Li Wenli was referring to the space fragment.
"That courtyard could have been used to store the gold and jewels," Bai Junjun still felt the pain deeply.
Li Wenli smiled, "No worries, there are plenty of lost civilizations around here. If we go out and explore more, we’ll always find something."
The few people behind them exchanged glances, feeling that whatever these two were talking about was not good.
But they knew better than to ask, since another intuition told them that the answer would be terrifying.
As they walked, they suddenly heard noisy voices up ahead.
"The entrance to the ancient tomb is this way, but with such a loud noise just now, I fear something has happened inside."
"We must go over and check no matter what!"
Bai Junjun listened intently for a while and found the voices somewhat familiar.
Driven by curiosity, she walked over and discovered that it was Black Eight and the unlucky brothers, who had come with their freshly recruited lucky fellow.
Indeed, calling these people lucky was not an overstatement, considering the eight hundred or so people who had been turned into headless living dead; compare them with these.
All they had done was eat a Grass Seed, while those others had become the living dead.
Just as Fatty and the others were bracing themselves to go and investigate, footsteps suddenly came from behind.
Surprised, they turned around and saw Bai Junjun and the others appearing behind them.
Black Eight was startled, "You... you..."
The unlucky brothers were also faces of horror.
While the road was ahead of them, how did these people appear behind them?
And these individuals were dragging someone bound hand and foot behind them, who upon closer inspection turned out to be Sixth Master.
Heavens, they had truly captured Black Six.
It was only then that Bai Junjun learned that not long after they had gone to the tomb, the unlucky brothers had returned to Zhao Family Village.
These siblings in misfortune who had eaten the Grass Seeds resignedly waited in the same place for Bai Junjun and the others to return.
