Chapter 5 Buried Objects
Humans are capable of creating miracles very easily.

Because people always do things that are beyond common sense.

Although they knew that the situation ahead was extremely dangerous, for the sake of that unknown treasure, several people were willing to risk their lives and gamble on that uncertain future.

Because gambling with your life is not scary, what is scary is that the other party’s chips are not rich enough.

Although Li Yi was not the first to act, his efficiency was the highest.

Because most of the danger was attracted by Wang Hu, Wei Li and Zhang Kaiwen, there were only a few strange corpses wriggling in the mud in front of him, and those corpses were quickly rushing towards other people, ignoring his existence.

It is precisely because of this that he dared to give it a try.

“Very close.”

Li Yi's heart was pounding at this moment. He was getting closer and closer to the lonely grave. He could even see the font on the broken tombstone clearly. However, the font was twisted like tadpoles and did not look like any kind of writing in history. It was an unknown language and culture.

He did not dare to stop for even a second and continued to move forward at the fastest speed.

at the same time.

An unwilling scream suddenly echoed not far away.

Li Yi's eyelids twitched and he subconsciously glanced in that direction.

The man named Zhang Kaiwen had most of his body stuck in the mud at this moment. He was entangled by three or four strange corpses, and his body was sinking rapidly, as if he was going to completely disappear from this world. Although he struggled desperately, it was of no avail.

The mud-covered corpse seemed terribly heavy and was not something an ordinary person could handle.

"I'm not willing to fail. I was so close."

Zhang Kaiwen was still shouting and struggling, but soon, his head was pressed into the mud by a dirty and cold hand.

Once buried underground, all his struggles came to an abrupt halt, leaving only one mud-covered arm exposed, weirdly twisted and stiff.

"It turns out that anyone who dies here will become a corpse in the mud, and will be stuck here forever, unable to escape."

Li Yi felt a chill in his heart, but he soon stopped looking and continued to move forward with gritted teeth.

Because he saw that after Zhang Kaiwen died, the soil nearby began to wriggle, and those horrible corpses raised their heads, wailing in pain and approaching him again.

It was clearly rolling in the mud, but it was approaching very quickly, which was totally unreasonable.

"Is Zhang Kaiwen dead?" Wei Li became more and more anxious at this moment.

Because there is one less person to share the pressure, he is in greater danger.

However, his speed has reached its limit, and he doesn't know whether he can get to the other side, but he knows that he has no way out, either before or now.

"Strength, get the hell out of my body now. It's still broad daylight, it's not time for you to sleep yet." Suddenly, a shout and roar echoed in the darkness.

Wang Hu was covered in mud. He once again burst out with unimaginable strength and broke free from a corpse in the mud. Then he ran and jumped like a beast. In just a short moment, he surpassed Li Yi and created a miracle by being the first to arrive near the lonely grave.

Next to the lonely grave, the soil was firm and overgrown with weeds, and it didn't sink when you stepped on it.

"How did this guy do it?" Wei Li, a doctor, was a little dumbfounded at this moment. He felt that Wang Hu, an ordinary person, completely subverted common sense.

If I'm entangled by that thing, can I burst out with strength to break free and escape by just shouting a few words?

What a joke.

Li Yi stopped walking, panting. His route was better than others, and he finally arrived at the lonely grave without any danger.

There is no time to worry about the dangers around us. We must get our things and leave as soon as possible.

As observed before, this solitary grave seemed to have been visited by tomb robbers. The coffin lid was overturned and the body of the tomb owner was discarded next to it. There was only a pile of tattered clothes in the empty coffin. There were no burial objects at all, and no rare objects were seen.

Li Yi and Wang Hu seemed to have escaped.

But the next moment, Wang Hu picked up the mummy on the ground without hesitation.

"Unknown strong man, your corpse has not rotted after so many years. Come with me, Wang Hu. I will take you to subvert the world together. Hahahaha." He laughed out loud, then took the mummy and left in one direction without looking back.

His behavior woke Li Yi up.

No one knows what the rare object is, so just take whatever you can.

He rushed over, rolled up the pile of tattered clothes in the coffin, then turned around and ran away.

When he turned around, he saw Wei Li who had just arrived.

The two looked at each other without interfering with each other.

Wei Li now went straight to the scattered offerings next to the tombstone, because there were some utensils scattered next to the offerings.

He was just like Li Yi and Wang Hu, he picked it up and ran away.

Because everyone knows that they cannot stay here, and it is impossible to be greedy and take other things, otherwise it will delay the escape.

The three of them went their separate ways. As to whether the things in their hands were rare items or valuable, only God knew now.

The corpses in the mud were still wailing and squirming. These horrible creatures seemed to be rioting at this moment. They broke free from the constraints of the mud and began to crawl aimlessly in all directions.

This monster-like roar even reached outside the building.

"Someone has obtained the strange object that stores the resentment of the dead. Only when the strange object that stores the resentment leaves its original location, the dead souls and evil spirits bound by the resentment will lose control and spread everywhere."

"How is this possible? They are just five ordinary people. How could they survive the hands of the earthbound spirit?"

"Is there really someone with a special destiny? Or is it just pure luck?"

There was a glimmer of surprise in the eyes of the woman who opened the psychic. She thought that those people had no hope at all and would be wiped out on the second underground floor, but she didn't expect that a miracle would actually happen.

"Now that they have got the things, it's our turn to collect them." There was some excitement in Lao Ya's low voice.

"Don't worry, we can't get close to this building yet."

The woman's eyes revealed a light. In her sight, there were countless wronged souls and evil spirits floating around the collapsed building. Many of those evil spirits noticed her presence and all pounced towards her, but these wronged souls and evil spirits quickly dissipated in mid-air.

Without the maintenance of magical objects, these things will not be able to achieve anything and will soon disappear.

This polluted world not only hinders people's spiritual practice, but also protects the people of this world in disguise.

Otherwise, after the Tianqing incident, ghosts and evil creatures would have already spread all over the world.

"Someone's out."

Suddenly, the old crow turned his gaze and looked towards the gate of the abandoned building.

In the darkness, accompanied by tired breathing, a figure ran outside in panic.

"Help, help." the man shouted.

"It's the woman named Liu Yan."

Old Crow recognized the person immediately. "She is the first one to escape alive? I guess she didn't risk going into the core area. That's good. If she's not greedy, the chances of survival are still very high. Wait, something's wrong. What's on her?"

To normal people, Liu Yan was just running away, but in Lao Ya's sight, there was a cold and stiff strange corpse that was stretching out a twisted hand, grabbing her ankle, and running away with her. At the same time, its body was disappearing little by little, as if it was merging into her body.

As the figure of the evil ghost gradually dissipated, Liu Yan's breath of a living person was weakening at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"She's possessed by a ghost." The tall woman at the side said coldly, "This ghost is different from other dead souls. It's become quite powerful and even knows how to find a living person to revive. Once it succeeds, Liu Yan will become a thing called a walking corpse. We can't let her leave here alive. We have to kill her immediately. If we let her go, the walking corpse will start practicing, which will be terrifying."

As soon as she finished speaking, her eyes flashed a little light again.

Witness!

Suddenly, Liu Yan's eyes rolled back, and she lost her balance and fell to the ground. She bled from all her orifices and died on the spot.

"stop."

At this moment, an angry shout was heard and a car came speeding over. The people in the car tried to stop it, but it seemed too late.

Before the car stopped, a figure rushed out of the car very nimbly.

"I've followed you guys for a long time. I didn't expect you to come to the abandoned city area to kill people. Do you really think that there are no investigators in Tianchang City who dare to deal with you lawless criminals?" The man strode over with an angry face.

"Investigator, Wang Jian? When did he target us?" Lao Ya's expression changed slightly.

"Since he has been discovered, let's deal with him."

The tall woman had a cold expression on her face, and she didn't care at all about killing someone just now.

"Have your eyes opened up to spiritualism? You are not very old, but you have such talent through practice. Who are you?" Wang Jian looked at the woman in front of him and asked.

"My name is Ning Wu. I'm a practitioner, not a criminal. There was a reason why I killed someone just now. That woman was possessed by a ghost. Even if I didn't do anything, she wouldn't survive for more than three days. Letting her go will only bring more trouble to the city. Wang Jian, as an investigator, you don't want the area under your jurisdiction to be haunted or have deaths, right?" Ning Wu said.

"Do I believe you if you say she's possessed by a ghost?" Wang Jian stared at her and said, "Your accomplices swindled three groups of people in the old city. The first group was fifteen people, the second group was ten people, and today was the third group of five people. Each group of people disappeared and never reappeared. Just based on this, I have the right to kill you now."

Ning Wu said: "In today's world, it is normal to pay someone to do something dangerous. I am not forcing anyone."

suddenly.

She noticed something and turned around suddenly to look towards the building behind her.

"boom!"

Along with the sound of breaking glass, Wang Hu, covered in mud and in a very miserable state, rushed out from a window. He was holding a dried corpse in his hand, and then fled in another direction without looking back.

"Wang Hu, where are you going?" Old Crow reacted and shouted.

"It seems that he is not satisfied with the two million and wants to run away with the things. Humph, he is really greedy, but he is still a little naive."

Ning Wu exerted force with her slender thighs and left the spot in an instant.

The figure quickly swept across the ground, leaving a long black shadow in the sight.

The speed is so incredibly fast that it is beyond the comprehension of normal people.

But the next moment.

Ning Wu's figure suddenly stopped.

"This distance is beyond the witness range, right? Are you trying to hunt me down? Are you treating me like I don't exist?"

Wang Jian stopped Ning Wu and the two of them helped each other briefly.

"boom!"

There was a muffled sound, and a cloud of dust was stirred up around.

Ning Wu retreated repeatedly, the sleeve on her arm broke into several pieces, leaving a bruise on her snow-white skin.

"You" Ning Wu opened her eyes wide, feeling very angry.

"I'll go chase him." said the old crow.

But just as he was about to take action, a red dot appeared on his body, and a strong sense of danger locked onto him.

"Try and see whether your legs are faster or the bullets of my sniper are faster." Wang Jian glanced at Lao Ya and said.

The old crow didn't dare to act recklessly and just stood there with a gloomy face.

Even though he practiced martial arts, he was still a human being and would die if he was hit.

"boom!"

There was another sound of breaking windows.

Li Yi appeared. He was also in a state of disgrace, but at least he managed to leave the building alive.

"Li Yi, stop, don't try to run. Where did you get the thing in your hand? Put it at the feet, and I will give you two million later." Lao Ya shouted.

"Transfer the money over now and I'll put the things down immediately." Li Yi stopped and turned around and said.

The old crow said: "I can't transfer money to you now, but you will be indispensable after this matter is over."

"What's the point of talking about not having money? Do you think I'm stupid? It's obvious that you don't want to give the money, but you want the things, and you even want to kill me to silence me." After saying that, Li Yi turned around and ran away.

He just saw clearly that investigator Wang Jian was confronting Lao Ya and his group.

No wonder the dangerous woman with psychic powers didn't try to stop Wang Hu when he was running.

Seeing Li Yi running away, Lao Ya was so angry that he wanted to kill him. You know, these two men ran with things in their hands, and maybe the things in their hands were rare items.

"I shouldn't have looked for these guys who value money over their lives in the first place."

However, as soon as Li Yi left, Wei Li also escaped from the building from another place. He was injured and in a very bad condition, but he still survived.

However, when he saw the two people running away and Liu Yan's body with blood gushing out of all her orifices on the ground, he suddenly fell silent.

Then he ran away madly in another direction.

Seeing the last person also running away with the things, not only was Lao Ya angry and wanted to kill someone, Ning Wu was also so angry that he almost vomited blood.

"Wang Jian, let me capture those people. I want to retrieve some of my belongings. How about I go back with you to assist in the investigation? I can promise you that I will never hurt them."

She was extremely anxious, feeling that the duck she had caught had flown away.

But she didn't dare to tell anyone about the strange object, otherwise it would not just be an investigator like Wang Jian who would be attracted. It was estimated that all the practitioners in the entire Tianchang City would come to cause trouble for her.

"They are victims and ordinary people. It's best to let them leave. Although I don't know what they took away, it doesn't matter to me. My responsibility is to keep you two here." Wang Jian rejected Ning Wu's proposal without hesitation.

"Wang Jian, you will regret this."

Ning Wu gritted her teeth and could only watch the three people disappear from her sight.

“I can only go back and look for them.”

"You choose between going back with me to be investigated or continuing to resist," Wang Jian said.

Ning Wu closed her eyes and calmed herself down, then said, "I'll go back with you to assist with the investigation, but before that I need to make a phone call."

"Okay, as long as you don't resist." Wang Jian said.

Although he was confident that he could take down the man in front of him, he did not want to fight with these vicious criminals.
