C76 (2/2)

As I thought about it, I suddenly remembered what Xu Man had said at the bronze door. Could it be that this person had also become the receptor for something? But didn't that demonic technique only exist in the ancient Kingdom of Yunnan?

Even though I was quite scared, the book in that person's hands was extremely attractive to me.

Fuck, I don't care! In any case, staying behind was equivalent to waiting for death. He might as well fight it out. Who knows, maybe there was a way for him to get out of that booklet!

With this thought in mind, I walked over to the dried corpse and grabbed the book in its hands.

But to my surprise, even though the mummy had probably been dead for a long time, I had tried so hard to pull the book out of his hands!

I had no choice but to use both hands at the same time to try to pry open the dried corpse's fingers.

However, I don't know if I used too much strength, or if the dried corpse's body was too fragile, I just probed around and that dried corpse's finger actually broke and fell onto the ground!

The moment the dried corpse's finger broke, I could clearly see countless light yellow worms squirming within the section. Furthermore, after coming into contact with the air, the worms actually started to turn black. In the blink of an eye, the worms actually grew black wings and let out buzzing sounds as they pounced towards my face!

The moment I saw the light yellow worm turn into a black flying bug, my mind buzzed!

Wasn't that one of those deadly bugs?

When I think of the way I died, with only skin left, my heart immediately goes cold! Furthermore, at such a close distance, I have no time to dodge!

However, when those bugs pounced in front of my eyes, they immediately stopped in midair!

My heart went cold as I looked at those terrifying black death gods buzzing less than two centimeters in front of my eyes.

However, what made me puzzled was that after staying in front of me for a few seconds, those worms flew off into the distance.

Although I don't know what happened exactly, but at least I got my life back.

Could it be that Shimin gave me a qilin to protect me? I remember Shimin saying before that this qilin could prevent any nefarious things from harming me. Could it be that those bugs sensed the existence of the qilin when they approached me and left?

Thinking of this, I immediately took out the qilin from my chest. An inexplicable feeling of gratitude welled up in my heart.

After which, I pulled out the book from the corpse's hands and walked down the damaged staircase.

However, I didn't even have the time to look through what was written in the booklet. A loud sound came directly from the opposite side of the house, as if someone had kicked open the opposite door! A roar that sounded like a beast's roar could be heard!

Not good! Perhaps the sound of the plank falling down the stairs had lured the two men over!

Staring at the empty walls and the only door, Broad Tree and I were as anxious as ants on a hot pan, while the footsteps of the two men directly headed for the house we were in!
