Chapter 46 Guanyin Sheds Tears
Chapter 46 Guanyin Sheds Tears
The tomb door was open, and the person leading the way with a torch didn't notice and went straight in.
Unexpectedly, the person in front did not pay attention to their footing and stepped on a mechanism inside the tomb, causing sharp arrows to fly out from the tomb chamber.
Li Lianhua reacted quickly, grabbing one of them with each hand and pulling Wu You and Fang Duobing behind the stone statue next to them.
After the arrows were fired, everyone looked around and saw several people lying on the ground.
Suddenly, a cry echoed throughout the cemetery. Upon closer inspection, it turned out that Zhang Qinghu had discovered his father, who had been missing for many years, dead in the grave.
Upon examining the other people on the ground, it turned out they were all members of the Fourteen Thieves of the Underworld.
With the help of many people, the coffin inside was opened, and they found it full of gold and silver treasures. The tomb raiders were overjoyed and prepared to take out their pockets and fill them with everything.
Seeing that everyone was preparing to fill the coffin with money, Li Lianhua told them that the coffin was full of gold and silver and that it was probably a fake tombstone. The real tomb must contain even more rare treasures. Didn't everyone want some?
The manor lord Wei chimed in, saying, "These are just small change. Once we find the real tomb, everyone can fill up whatever they want. Whoever finds the tomb entrance first will get to choose the treasures first."
Upon hearing this, many tomb raiders dropped what they were holding, turned around and picked up their tools, searching for mechanisms around the stone wall.
Fang Duobing was curious as to why the bodies of the Fourteen Thieves of the Yellow Springs were at the foot of the mountain. Li Lianhua then led him and Wu You to a ventilation shaft. There was a gap there, and they guessed that someone had thrown the bodies down through it.
As they were talking, the sounds of fighting came from the tomb. The three rushed back and found that Ge Pan had taken the unskilled Master Wei hostage, intending to force him to hand over the antidote along with others.
The crowd was intrigued and were about to step forward.
A loud shout rang out: "So you've been waiting all this time, it turns out you've rebelled!" The newcomer struck down with a palm, knocking Ge Pan to the ground.
Li Lianhua recognized the attacker's moves, but only chuckled lightly without saying a word.
Intimidated by Di Feisheng's martial prowess, no one dared to make any further moves. Master Wei ordered everyone to search for the entrance to the mechanism again, but Fang Duobing stopped him.
"No need. The mechanisms here correspond to six of the eight directions, but the Qian and Kun positions are missing. And since this is the Heavenly Tomb, where Qian and Kun are reversed, we only need to find one Qian position to link the mechanisms of the other positions together."
Fang Duobing walked towards the coffin guard in the center of the tomb, pressed his qi downwards, and the coffin, filled with gold and silver treasures, slowly descended.
Meanwhile, a very well-hidden door slowly opened beside it.
As soon as the door was opened a little, Di Feisheng's small body leaped inside. The others, fearing that the treasure would be taken, quickly followed.
In the end, only Wu You, Li Lianhua, and Fang Duobing remained. They walked slowly and leisurely into the room, showing no sign of being in a hurry.
Soon, the group arrived at the main entrance of the inner chamber, which was the Guanyin Gate. Entering it would allow them to obtain the rare and precious medicine, Guanyin's Tears.
While Ge Pan was using the plum blossom dart to kill someone, everyone was still thinking about what Li Lianhua said about Zhang Qinghu actually being Zhang Qingshi, and that Zhang Qinghu was actually mistakenly killed by Gu Fengxin.
Over there, Di Feisheng had already unleashed his powerful internal energy, forcefully opening the Guanyin Gate with a few powerful strikes.
Inside the tomb, gold, stone, and jade artifacts were piled up haphazardly, appearing quite worthless. Two coffins stood directly in front of the tomb.
Di Feisheng finally saw the treasure he had been searching for for many days right in front of him. He quickly walked up and slapped the two coffins with his palm.
In an instant, the glazed tiles on the coffin shattered, scattering everywhere. The two corpses revealed were revealed: the man's body was a skeleton, while the woman's appeared to be asleep. The legendary tears of Guanyin, sought after by countless people, had been poured from the woman's mouth, preventing her body from decaying.
In the instant the glass shattered, Li Lianhua raised her arms, using one hand to shield her face and the other to block the flying glass shards in front of Wu You, using her long sleeves to deflect the incoming fragments.
The world in front of him was suddenly blocked, and Wu You was confused for a moment, not knowing why Li Lianhua was doing this. He reached out and grabbed Li Lianhua's sleeve, just about to pull it open.
Suddenly remembering something, he silently put his hand down, and before doing so, he rubbed the wrinkled parts of his hand to show that he hadn't done anything.
It's best to avoid watching such terrifying events to prevent nightmares at night.
Di Feisheng was overjoyed to finally see the Guanyin with tears in her eyes that she had been searching for so long. Ignoring Fang Duobing's warnings, she carefully took it down.
Seeing that the man wouldn't listen, Fang Duobing had no choice but to step forward and use force to stop him. However, the difference in strength was too great, and he was defeated after only one move, collapsing to the ground, vomiting blood, and fainting.
Wu You and Li Lianhua stood by, simply watching the show. If it weren't for the fact that they were seen taking out sunflower seeds and it wouldn't be appropriate, Wu You would have liked to eat a few. Seeing Fang Duobing instantly defeated, Wu You suddenly felt that his own martial arts skills were insignificant.
As expected, someone who can fight the world's number one fighter is not someone to be trifled with.
Seeing that Di Feisheng was about to attack Fang Duobing on the ground, Li Lianhua quickly spoke up to stop him: "Why don't you use Guanyin's Tears now? Aren't you afraid something might happen? He's just a child, don't take it to heart."
Di Feisheng stopped what he was doing, looked down at the two people watching the scene, and frowned deeply: "You..., you are... Li..."
Li Lianhua interrupted, "It's me! Hurry up and check if that treasure still has any medicinal effect, lest it cause diarrhea."
Di Feisheng didn't say anything, but quickly walked outside, leaving behind the words, "I will come back to find you again," before disappearing without a trace.
Wu You remembered that it was Li Lianhua who planted the Shura Seed in Di Feisheng, which suppressed Di Feisheng's martial arts and forced him to help investigate his senior brother's orphan.
However, Di Feisheng has indeed disappeared, but Li Lianhua is still here. But given Li Lianhua's martial arts skills, he can definitely suppress her with force, so there's no need for anything else.
Indeed, once one's own strength is sufficient, all schemes and tricks become unnecessary. This is an eternal truth.
Seeing Fang Duobing lying on the ground, Wu You asked, "Is he alright? Should we take him out first?"
Li Lianhua said it wasn't necessary, it was just a minor injury, and he would wake up soon. She stepped forward, pressed two acupoints on Fang Duobing's body, put a pill in his mouth, and then channeled some internal energy into him.
"Hey, Fang Duobing, wake up."
A short while later, Fang Duobing regained consciousness. As soon as he woke up, he asked Li Lianhua if she was alright.
Li Lianhua said, "Don't worry, I'm fine. I'm quite good at escaping."
Fang Duobing sighed, "That damned thing, his martial arts are so strong. By the way, where is that little thing?"
Li Lianhua said calmly, "I'm leaving."
"They've gone, but what about Guanyin weeping? Hurry and chase after them!" Fang Duobing was about to leave when Lianhua stopped him.
After being misled by Li Lianhua, Fang Duobing believed her and even vowed to find good medicine for her. He then hurriedly ran to Baichuan Academy to report the news.
Wu You was speechless: "Just how many people have you fooled with this illness of yours?"
Li Lianhua touched her nose guiltily, "It wasn't much, it's just that he trusted me the most. I used to believe that I could fool you too, but I never expected that you would be the one who fooled me."
Now, it was Wu You's turn to feel guilty.
