Our countenances changed. Although the situation inside the blood coffin was terrifying, it was just a disaster that could shatter the mountains and crack the earth. It didn't attack us. Although it looked terrifying, we had all escaped, and no one was hurt.
But this sudden gust of wind rushed straight towards the fox girl and took her away.
Instinctively, we ran away. When we were dozens of meters away from the blood coffin, we felt a little relieved.
I lifted my head to look at the door of the blood coffin. Although it was far away, I could still hear the tsunami-like noise inside. I couldn't help but feel sad.
When we were inside the blood coffin, even with my Heavenly Master Realm cultivation base, I couldn't protect myself. The fox girl's power was just at the Glorious Era. I was afraid that she wouldn't be able to escape after being sucked in.
In order to repay their kindness, Li Linqi and his wife had asked the fox girl to stay with me and help me get the Seven Star Mugwort from the Green Mountains Country. Now, we hadn't gotten the Seven Star Mugwort, and the fox girl had an accident. How could I explain this to Li Linqi and his wife?
Also, there was Wang Li. Without the fox girl, he couldn't get the Seven Star Mugwort. Wang Li's condition was getting worse.
After thinking about this, I couldn't help but feel regretful. If I had known this earlier, I wouldn't have taken the fox girl to the Chiyou Tomb.
At that time, I thought that there were only Liang Tianxin and Qiao Sigui. I didn't expect that so many people would appear. Even the Yang God Celestial Master had appeared. Everything was beyond my expectation.
While I was blaming myself, Officer Wang suddenly screamed, "Everybody, be careful! Another gust of wind is coming!"
I lifted my head to look at the entrance of the blood coffin. Sure enough, another gust of air rolled out of the door. However, this time, it didn't come for us. Instead, it circled around the entrance and hit the ground, making a loud noise and stirring up a lot of dust.
As soon as I heaved a sigh of relief, I looked through the dust and saw several flows of air coming out of the blood coffin. They didn't seem to have any pattern. Some of them hit the ground, while others were sent far away. Some of them hit the stone walls with carvings of the twelve zodiac animals. The tremendous force created cracks on the walls, destroying several carvings of the zodiac animals.
The sand and dust had almost covered the entire area. However, as Heavenly Masters, all of us had extremely good eyesight. Through the dust, we could still see the violent air currents surging out from the entrance of the blood coffin.
It was obvious that the calamity within the blood coffin could no longer be stopped and would soon spread outside.
Wang Can was the first to speak anxiously. "We can't stay here for a long time. We have to get out of here as soon as possible."
Then, he urged Ah Fu and Ah Shou to lead the way, ready to leave this place. However, Lin Acheng didn't move, and neither did I.
Earlier, he had fled to the outside of the blood coffin because he had subconsciously faced the apocalyptic situation inside.
However, if they continued to escape, they would have to leave Chiyou's tomb. What about Fatty?
He was still in the tomb!
Lin Acheng turned to look at me and said in a low voice, "Saint Zhou, leave with them first. I have to go in and look for my Hu Zi."
He and his son were very close. When Fatty disappeared in the Fire God Temple, Lin Acheng didn't hesitate to go in to look for him. He didn't care about the danger at all. How could he abandon Fatty now?
I had been friends with Fatty since childhood. As long as I had a little hope, I didn't want to see anything happen to Fatty in front of me.
However, when I looked up at the blood coffin, I sighed inwardly.
It was different from the Fire God Temple. Although there were hidden dangers in the Fire God Temple, as long as you were lucky, you could avoid them.
However, the scene in front of us was like the end of the world. Let alone Lin Acheng, as long as I was affected by the turbulence, I wouldn't be able to fight back. I was afraid that I would be smashed into pieces in an instant. If I went back, I wouldn't be saving people but sending myself to death.
Seeing my hesitation, Wang Can suggested, "The situation inside is too dangerous. Uncle Lin, you can't go back. How about this …"
Previously, Wang Can regarded Lin Acheng as his peer. After confirming his identity as a Saint, he called him "Uncle Lin."
He pointed at Ah Fu and Ah Shou and said, "Let's go out and find a safe place to stay. I'll ask Ah Fu and Ah Shou to go in again to see if they can find Brother Lin Hu. I promise that as long as Brother Lin Hu appears, Ah Fu and Ah Shou will bring him back. What do you think?"
Although he asked Lin Acheng, his eyes were fixed on me. Obviously, he was asking for my opinion.
With Ah Fu and Ah Shou's cultivation base, they might have a chance to come out alive if they went in.
However, I couldn't agree to do that.
No one knew whether Fatty was dead or alive. I couldn't let them risk their lives just because of a slim hope.
Although they were servants of the Wang family and obeyed Officer Wang's words, there was no need for them to sacrifice themselves for nothing.
Although I didn't agree, I couldn't say it out loud. Lin Acheng was standing next to me, and Wang Can had already said it. If I refused, Lin Acheng would feel even more desperate.
While I was hesitating, Lin Acheng shook his head and said to Wang Can, "It's not necessary. Although the two Heavenly Masters have high cultivation bases, I know what's going on inside. I'm afraid their cultivation bases won't help.
As I said, you go first. I'll go in and have a look. If I can find him, I'll find him. If I can't, we can stay here and keep him company. "
His voice was calm, but it was obvious that he was ready to die.
I couldn't bear to see him die. After thinking for a while, I said, "Uncle Lin, don't be too pessimistic. Fatty has been lucky since he was a child. Over the years, he has encountered many dangers, but he survived each one. Maybe this time, it won't be so dangerous.
Don't forget that when the disaster happened, Fatty was still in the blood door.
Based on the situation I encountered in the Blood Gate, the Blood Gate is a completely separate space from the outside world. The berserk calamity outside might not necessarily affect the inside. "
Lin Acheng nodded indifferently. "It's possible."
Although he agreed with me, his attitude didn't change. He still insisted on going back.
Feeling helpless, I gritted my teeth and turned to Ah Fu. I whispered, "Take Uncle Lin and leave first."
Ah Fu was stunned, but he quickly understood what I meant. He didn't say anything and moved to Lin Acheng's side in a flash. He extended his hand and pressed on his shoulder. Lin Acheng didn't have time to react. He closed his eyes and slumped down. Ah Fu picked him up and led the way out.
The rest of us didn't hesitate and followed behind him.
Just like when we came here, we first walked out of the cave where the blood coffin was and went to the huge, empty cave outside. It was relatively calm here, but since there was nothing blocking the two places, it wouldn't take long for the raging wind to spread to this place. Thus, we didn't stop and walked all the way out of the cave. After we walked out of the huge bronze door with Chiyou's statue engraved on it and saw that the bronze door was closed, we stopped and rested on the spot.
After we stopped, I was worried that Lin Acheng would wake up and cause a ruckus again. I searched his body and prepared to take out his bronze cauldron.
The door in front of us couldn't be opened without a bronze cauldron. However, after searching for a while, I didn't find any small cauldron on him. I guessed his small cauldron was with the fatty.
Just now, Fu had used his true essence to temporarily seal Lin Acheng's divine sense. Not long after we stopped to rest, he woke up. After he understood the situation, he didn't make any noise. He just silently walked to the outside of the bronze gate, sat cross-legged, and stared at the gate. It seemed that he was waiting for the fatty to come back.
Looking at his behavior, my heart tightened with sorrow.
Not only for the fatty, but also for the little fox girl.
Just as I had said, the fatty was inside the blood door, so he might have had a chance to escape. However, when the little fox girl was sucked in, she would have had to face the violent turbulence. She wouldn't have had a chance to escape. She would have already died.
Our trip had been smooth. Although we had encountered Lu Zhenyang, whose power had increased a lot, we hadn't suffered any losses. However, we hadn't expected that such a big accident would happen just as we were about to leave.
I went to talk to Lin Acheng. He didn't show much emotion, but he couldn't hide the sadness in his eyes.
"I'm going to sit here and wait until the fatty comes out."
Our hope was slim, but in this situation, besides waiting, there was nothing else we could do.
I hesitated for a while then decided to stay here and wait with Lin Acheng.
Of course, I couldn't wait forever. After a while, I would find a way to get in and see. If it was quiet inside, I would search around to see if I could find the fatty or his remains.
If it was still the same after a long time, I would have to forcefully take Lin Acheng away.
I had made up my mind, and Officer Wang and the others wouldn't refuse. We stayed here.
Officer Wang also asked Ah Fu to buy some daily necessities for us for the next few days.
According to my original plan, I was prepared to wait for half a month. However, who would have thought that the bronze gate would suddenly open early the next morning? I lifted my head and saw a familiar figure walking out. It was none other than Fatty Hai.
Fatty wasn't the only one who walked out with a smile on his face. The fox girl's slim figure also appeared behind him, following closely behind him.
The two of them had survived. Moreover, their clothes were neat and tidy, and they looked energetic. They didn't even have a scratch on them!
