Chapter 1538

The first rays of sunlight in the morning sprinkled on the stone road of the town.

Huo Jilin, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan were packing their bags.

They were ready to leave the town where they stayed for a short time and start a new journey.

Huo Jilin threw his backpack on his shoulder, raised his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead, and said:

"Old Hu, Fatty, we have to be careful when we set out this time. We don't know what's waiting for us on the road ahead."

Hu Bayi patted Huo Jilin on the shoulder and said with a smile:

"What are you afraid of? The three of us brothers have seen all kinds of scenes. Let's go."

Wang Kaixuan also responded:

"That's right, we have been through big winds and waves, and we can't capsize in this small ditch."

The three were talking and laughing.

Suddenly, a sound of horse hooves came from afar.

It turned out that a team of escorts passed by the town, and the horse hooves raised a cloud of dust.

Wang Kaixuan looked at the team of escorts and approached curiously.

One of the escorts said loudly:

"Have you heard that the jade pendant of Mr. Zhao's family in Wangfeng City was lost? Mr. Zhao was very angry and was looking for it all over the world."

Huo Jilin's heart tightened, and he subconsciously touched the jade pendant on his waist.

He looked at Hu Bayi.

Hu Bayi's eyes also revealed a trace of worry.

Wang Kaixuan didn't care about anything else when he heard this.

He hurried back to the two of them and said in a low voice:

"It's bad, our jade pendant won't belong to Mr. Zhao."

Huo Jilin frowned, thought for a moment and said:

"According to the escort, it's almost certain.

And Mr. Zhao is powerful, and he must have sent a lot of assassins to deal with us now."

Hu Bayi touched his chin and said:

"What should we do now? We can't just sit and wait for death."

Huo Jilin looked into the distance with a firm look and said: "For now, we have no choice but to hide.

I know a place that may help us avoid these troubles temporarily."

Wang Kaixuan asked hurriedly, "What place? Old Huo, don't keep us in suspense."

Huo Jilin slowly uttered three words: "The Tomb of King Hui."

Hu Bayi hesitated for a moment and said:

"The tomb is extremely dangerous. If you go in, you may die, but there is no other way now."

Although Wang Kaixuan was a little scared, he knew that there was no better choice.

He gritted his teeth and said:

"Okay, let's go to the tomb. It's better than being chased by those killers all over the world."

The three of them made up their minds and immediately changed their itinerary and set off in the direction of the Tomb of King Hui.

Along the way, Huo Jilin was in a very heavy mood.

While he was vigilantly observing his surroundings, he was thinking about how to deal with the upcoming crisis.

Hu Bayi looked at Huo Jilin and comforted him:

"Old Huo, don't worry too much. There will always be a way out. We will definitely get through this difficult time."

Huo Jilin nodded and said:

"I hope so. It's just that I am wrong to involve you this time."

Wang Kaixuan waved his hand and said, "What are you talking about? We are brothers. We share happiness and difficulties.

It's just Mr. Zhao. When this is over, we will settle accounts with him."

The three of them quickened their pace and soon came to the entrance of the tomb of King Hui.

The entrance was full of thorns and weeds, and a gloomy breath came to their faces.

Wang Kaixuan couldn't help shuddering and said:

"Old Huo, this place looks scary. Can you really do it?"

Huo Jilin took a deep breath and said, "There is no other choice now. Let's go in."

The three of them walked into the tomb carefully, and the darkness swallowed them in an instant.

The tomb passage was filled with a smell of decay, and the torches on the wall flickered with a faint light.

The three people's nervous faces were reflected.

Just then, a slight sound of footsteps came from behind.

Huo Jilin stopped and made a gesture to keep quiet.

Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan immediately became alert and tightened their weapons in their hands.

"Who!" Huo Jilin shouted loudly.

However, there was only deathly silence in response to them.

The three of them moved forward slowly with their backs to back.

Suddenly, a black shadow passed over their heads, bringing a cool breeze.

Wang Kaixuan screamed in fear: "Oh my God, there is a ghost!"

Hu Bayi calmed down and said, "Don't panic, it may be those killers chasing us."

Huo Jilin's eyes turned cold and said, "Since you are here, don't even think about leaving."

After that, the three chased in the direction of the black shadow.

Huh!

Huo Jilin took the lead, holding a dagger in his hand, and walked carefully in the dim tomb passage.

Hu Bayi followed closely behind, and the compass needle in his hand kept shaking, showing the disorder of the aura here.

Although Wang Kaixuan was afraid, he also plucked up his courage and held a dagger in his hand.He was holding an engineer shovel.

He was still muttering: "Whether you are a human or a ghost, I am not afraid of you."

They chased the shadow to a spacious tomb.

Various ancient bronzes and pottery figurines were placed around the tomb.

The shadow flashed and disappeared behind a huge sarcophagus.

Huo Jilin winked at Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan, and the three of them carefully surrounded the sarcophagus.

"Come out, don't hide!" Huo Jilin shouted loudly.

However, there was no response.

Just as they approached the sarcophagus.

Suddenly, a black smoke spurted out from the gap of the sarcophagus, and the three of them retreated quickly.

"Ahem, what is this!"

Wang Kaixuan coughed and waved his hand to try to disperse the smoke.

The smoke gradually dissipated, and a killer in black appeared in front of them.

The killer's face was covered with a black cloth, revealing only a pair of cold eyes.

"Hmph, I finally found you." The killer's voice was hoarse and cold.

Hu Bayi took a step forward and said, "We have no grudges against you, why are we forcing you?"

The killer sneered: "You took Mr. Zhao's things and still want to be safe? Today is your death day."

After that, the killer flashed and stabbed Huo Jilin with the long sword in his hand.

Huo Jilin dodged sideways and slashed the killer's wrist with the dagger in his hand.

The killer turned his wrist to avoid Huo Jilin's attack and turned to attack Hu Bayi.

Hu Bayi waved the compass in his hand to block the killer's sword.

Wang Kaixuan took the opportunity to sneak attack the killer from behind with an engineer shovel.

The killer noticed the attack from behind and kicked Wang Kaixuan to the ground.

"Fatty!" Huo Jilin and Hu Bayi shouted in unison.

Wang Kaixuan got up from the ground and cursed: "You dare to kick me, Fatty, I will punish you."

The three of them fought fiercely with the killer.

The tomb was full of swords and sabers, and the four of them were fighting hard.

"This is not a solution. We have to find a way to leave here."

Hu Bayi said while resisting the killer's attack.

Huo Jilin nodded: "I will lead him away, and you find a chance to escape."

"No, we have to go together." Wang Kaixuan said loudly.

"Stop talking nonsense, listen to me."

After Huo Jilin finished speaking, he ran towards another exit of the tomb.

The killer saw this and immediately chased after him!
