Chapter 2169: The World Inside the Tomb
It would stand to reason that a tomb should smell rotten, but Ning Shu actually smelled a fresh floral scent.
Something was definitely not right.
“Do you smell that?” Ning Shu asked.
Gu Rui nodded. He looked a little surprised. This was obviously beyond his expectations.
“In order to avoid any unexpected situations, we should wait a while before going in,” Cheng Mingzi said.
Gu Rui shook his head. “We can’t wait, the doors will close after a certain amount of time.”
Ning Shu and Mo Juechen asked in unison, “How do you know?”
“Now is not the time to ask that kind of question.” Gu Rui pulled Ning Shu and pa.s.sed between the doors.
The others quickly followed and the stone doors closed behind them with a ‘bang.’
As soon as she walked through the doors, Ning Shu felt like she had entered a paradise.
The ground was covered with green gra.s.s and trees, and there were well-paved cobblestone paths.
There were even rock gardens, small streams, and stone bridges.
It was less like a tomb and more like a gorgeous courtyard.
Lotus flowers bloomed in pools and exuded a fresh scent.
It was a beautiful, vibrant world.
A world that felt out of place inside a tomb.
Was it an illusion?
How did these plants survive without sunlight?
The room was illuminated by countless glowing pearls and was as bright as day.
Ning Shu squatted down and pulled out her dagger. She used the dagger to push aside the gra.s.s on the ground.
Both the gra.s.s and the soil were normal.
This was one of the strangest tombs Ning Shu had ever seen.
What power allowed plants to survive in the absence of sunlight?
Everyone was stunned. If what had greeted them was instead a scene that tested their mental fort.i.tude, they wouldn’t have been so shocked.
None of them could have predicted what lay before them.
“Gu Rui, what’s going on? It couldn’t be that this tomb was modeled after the imperial palace, right?” Even in such an environment, Mo Juechen still felt as unwell as before.
There was an indescribable sinking feeling in his heart.
Gu Rui also felt that the current situation was a little weird. Something was off about the situation.
“Someone is coming.” Ning Shu heard footsteps.
Everyone immediately hid behind a group of large rocks. Ning Shu poked her head out to see what was making the footsteps.
Why would anyone choose to live in a tomb?
She saw five people with deathly pale complexions and tattered clothing.
The people were lined up as if they were on patrol, but their eyes were empty and unfocused, and their skin had a blue pallor.
They walked in an extremely uniform manner and their footsteps sounded at the exact same time, just like a machine.
These were monsters.
What monsters could survive for so long inside a tomb?
Ning Shu looked at Gu Rui. Gu Rui was staring straight at the five patrolling figures and his gaze was scorching hot.
When the monsters were gone, the group came out from behind the rocks.
The current situation was very strange. They had come here to rob a tomb, so how did it become them breaking into a house?
“Are there any living people in this tomb?” Mo Juechen looked puzzled.
“Impossible, it’s impossible,” Gu Rui said firmly.
Ning Shu stared at Gu Rui. She had the feeling that Gu Rui had been here before. Even if he hadn’t, he must have known about the situation inside the tomb.
Gu Rui hurriedly walked towards a place in the distance.
They arrived at a dazzling palace. A coffin had been placed in the main hall.
