Our Binding Love: My Gentle Tyrant Chapter 364

Red Rope

Ye Mu felt this matter was getting more and more interesting. They obviously were searching for the treasure, but now it seemed they were robbing a grave.

"But this really is not good news." Ye Mu said in an almost joking manner, "If the favored concubine is really buried here, then there will certainly be more mechanisms. Now we can only hope that there is also more treasure!"

Mo Linyuan nodded. "There will be, let's follow the mural."

He tugged Ye Mu's hand walking downward, and the ten or so people behind them were busy tying bells.

In the darkness, there were the occasional jingles of the bells. Listening to it was rather strange. Usually, the deeper they went, they should be feeling colder, but it was different here. The deeper they went, it actually became hotter.

Ye Mu said, "Seems like there is a hot spring down here, the air here is really humid."

The more they walked downward, the humidity and heat became stronger. Suddenly, someone said behind them, "What's going on? My body feels itchy."

As soon as he spoke, the others followed. Ye Mu listened and hurriedly pulled her sleeve up. She saw that her body was covered with specks of red!

 

"Not good, this water vapor is poisonous, we should stop going forward!"

"Then—then what do we do?" someone asked.

Ye Mu immediately used the idea from her direct experience in the emperor's tomb, and immediately knocked about the precipice. In the end, she realized there was air current, so she directly brought her palm down, smashing the precipice!

Everyone saw Ye Mu's expression suddenly change. The very thick stone wall couldn't be penetrated with ordinary internal energy. Ye-xiaojie truly was powerful!

Ye Mu glanced at them. "Why are you just staring? Divert!"

She wanted to leave after saying this, but her hand was grabbed by Mo Linyuan. Carefully looking at her hand, he noticed that her hand was all red, and immediately wanted to sigh!

Before, he thought Ye Mu wanted to look for a secret passage, he didn't expect she would directly—

"Let me do this kind of thing next time," he gravely said as he rubbed her hand, his heart aching.

Ye Mu could not restrain smiling. "Can you break through it?"

Mo Linyuan pinched her cheeks. "Don't underestimate your husband."

Ye Mu's face immediately turned red. This—they have not married yet!

After diverting, they continued onward. There was no mural on this path, but they still kept going down. After diverting, they were more careful. Ye Mu was better, what she was afraid of were those mechanisms, while the others the ancestors, which naturally were the mystery of mysteries.

Finally, they arrived in the second stone room.

This stone room lay many skeletons. Each of them were reclined, both hands serenely placed in front of their bodies, looking like they were willing to be buried alive with the dead, lying there.

Because they were walking in puzzlement all the way, at this moment they also didn't understand where this section of the underground palace was.

"These people are not interesting to look at, let's continue." Ye Mu's voice was unusually calm. She was never scared of these, so right now she could still keep her head. Those behind her were also elites who killed people; naturally, they weren't scared, but they didn't expect Ye Mu to be brave despite being a girl.

In the third stone room, it was the burial objects, but the burial objects here were all textile material. These things were placed very long ago and had decayed. A person behind Ye Mu scrutinized the decorative pattern, and regrettably said.

"What a waste, these materials are flawless, it must be the empire's most famous cloud brocade."

"Cloud brocade? This many? Isn't it only produced a few tens in a year?"

Ye Mu intercepted, "This also explains, the one buried here is really the favored concubine! Let's go, these things are now useless, nothing good to look at."

The people behind nodded, and then started hanging a bell and hammered a wooden peg. Their speed advancing forward was not fast as they prioritized safety.

But it was at this moment that the person who was currently threading a needle froze. He pulled and pulled, and found that the thread worn on his hand had unexpectedly snapped off somewhere, the bell had also dropped.

"What's the matter?" Ye Mu asked.

He rubbed the back of his head and replied, "The rope we've been using to come here broke. It's really strange, these ropes are clearly strong and firm. What about letting this subordinate go back and check?"

Ye Mu knew in her heart that it was harmful to act alone in this kind of situation. She shook her head. "If it broke then it broke. You keep piling here, continue tying the rope. Even if those ropes broke, it would have broken in the same place and won't make a turn. We won't get lost."

"You have a point." Ye Mu saying this, they continued tying the red rope, but Mo Linyuan's expression was not relaxed.

Of course, Ye Mu's calmness was also a pretense.

It broke, their tying of the rope was not even tight, how did it break?

Mo Linyuan was worried about Ye Mu's safety. "What if we go back and send other people to come down?"

Ye Mu shook her head. "We've walked this far. Now that a strange thing has occurred, turning back might not mean it's safer. Let's continue walking around."

"Okay."

Mo Linyuan clutched Ye Mu's hand tightly. "Whatever happens, don't leave my side."

Ye Mu nodded, her expression grave.

They arrived in the fourth stone room. The objects in this stone room were a little more feminine. Since they were boxes of women's adornments, it seemed that a woman buried here was not wrong.

Ye Mu took a look at a hair clasp as she picked it up in passing, being knowledgeable about the quality. "These are all valuable things, the pearls on top can't be exchanged even for gold. But even if all of you brought gloves, don't arbitrarily touch so as to avoid activating the trap."

These words from Ye Mu refrained those who previously wanted to touch.

And at this moment, with the wooden peg fixed, the rope on the person's hand who was preparing to tie the rope loosened, and also broke?

At this moment, everyone became nervous. This situation recurred one after another. And in this kind of confined surroundings, it made them panic.

If it were the troops that Ye Xiaolang brought, they would definitely not do this kind of thing to their own people. But if it wasn't them, how did this rope break by itself? These were all excellent ropes, and crucially, the sound of bells was not heard when it broke. It really was strange.

"What about this," one of the soldiers said, "I'll turn back and check. Don't worry, I'm not afraid of anything."

Ye Mu firmly refused, "No one is allowed to turn back. Since we're now inside, we should walk together, and retreat together. This underground path is complicated, once you separate and get lost, it will be a tricky matter."

She also said to the person binding the rope, "From now on, you don't have to tie and pile anymore, just lay the rope aside. What we want is only markings. Besides, I've also made other marks along the way, so you don't have to worry."

Hearing Ye Mu say this, they immediately became at ease. "Alright, all of us believe in you! Let's continue!"
