Chapter 1881 - 338:

Lin Shuyou: "Brother Bin, am I eating a bit too much?"

Tan Wenbin: "No worries, you and Run Sheng just eat as much as you can. The more you eat, the better you disguise yourself. After all, appetite can't be faked."

Lin Shuyou finally couldn't eat anymore, and after Run Sheng ate one more bowl than Lin Shuyou, he also put down his chopsticks.

Tan Wenbin said to Li Zhiyuan: "Brother Xiao Yuan, I just heard footsteps. There are five teams of trained people, and considering those who might have noticed the footsteps, I estimate that eight teams just went in."

Li Zhiyuan: "Hmm, it's about time we went in too."

Tan Wenbin went to settle the bill, and then the four of them walked towards the museum like tourists.

As Tan Wenbin returned after buying the tickets, looking puzzled and distributing the tickets to everyone, he whispered to the young man:

"Brother Xiao Yuan, I think the ticket seller is a bit strange."

Li Zhiyuan: "It's a puppet. Not just the ticket seller, but the ticket checking staff are puppets too."

Tan Wenbin: "So, is this a trap?"

Li Zhiyuan: "Do you know what kind of puppetry technique this is?"

Lin Shuyou: "What kind?"

Tan Wenbin: "Nuo Puppetry Technique?"

Li Zhiyuan: "Yes."

Lin Shuyou: "Brother Bin, have you been reading about puppetry technique besides the array book recently?"

Tan Wenbin: "Because apart from Nuo Puppetry Technique, we don't really know any others, and Brother Xiao Yuan won't ask more."

"Wait, Nuo Puppetry Technique..." Lin Shuyou slapped his forehead, "Three-eyed!"

Lin Shuyou took a step back, looking at the museum before them.

So, was it Zhao Yi who set up the layout here, having competed with Brother Xiao Yuan in arrays earlier?

Tan Wenbin: "Since the outer team still hasn't notified us, does it mean that even if we see them later, we should act like we don't recognize them?"

Li Zhiyuan: "Indeed, let's go in now."

Even knowing that the ticket checkers are all puppets and not true men, their lazy demeanor, hiding in the shade while impatiently tearing the tickets, is vividly portrayed.

Walking up the steps and entering the museum, a faint musty smell fills the air, and the temperature drops suddenly.

This isn't the effect of the array; rather, tombs naturally exude a calming coolness.

Of course, from the moment they started climbing the steps, they had already entered the array domain.

Upon entering, the first thing they see is a guide map. Following the directions inward, they can see a series of tombstones.

Further inside, after passing through an ancillary exhibit, they reached the tomb region.

Along the way, besides themselves, they didn't see anyone else.

Although the number of visitors here isn't many, quite a few went in earlier, and neither entry nor exit is visible at the main door.

In the tomb area, many dim lights are hung, some blue, some green, some red…

Some lights are flickering due to poor contact.

This is probably not because the management neglected maintenance but possibly intentional, given that cultural sites today are struggling financially, creating an eerie atmosphere might be a strategy.

Two rows of tomb holes stretch before them, each entrance adorned with an iron plaque detailing the tomb room and Tomb Master's information.

There are single tombs, couple tombs, and couple tombs with a concubine.

This feels like arriving at a small village road, flanked by houses, each with varying family sizes.

Tan Wenbin: "Relying on the mountain to eat the mountain, relying on the water to eat the water, could this be considered a feast gifted by the Old Ancestor?"

The underground tombs are so numerous, one could excavate them to build a museum, turning it into a tomb-themed playground for children.

There's no barrier at the tomb entrances, allowing free entry. Inside, specific tomb rooms have railings, but without supervision, even those who don't follow rules could venture deeper.

However, the danger level here is quite high, so people just look around without actually going inside. The space is too cramped, any unexpected incident could result in a disadvantage.

Yet Li Zhiyuan stopped in front of a tomb door, on which the plaque indicates it's a three-person tomb shared by a man, his primary wife, and a concubine.

The Tomb Master's surname is Lin, the primary wife's surname is Chen, and the concubine's surname is Bai.

Upon seeing the plaque, Tan Wenbin couldn't help but twitch his mouth.

Li Zhiyuan: "Let's go in and take a look." 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ

Run Sheng went inside first, having to bend low, followed by Lin Shuyou and Tan Wenbin, while Li Zhiyuan in the middle did not need to.

Once within the tomb room's domain, the space widens, allowing adults to stand upright.

Within there are three coffins, which typically should have been arranged with the Tomb Master and the wife side by side, or the concubine solo on one side, or the Tomb Master's in the center, with the wife's beside it, and the concubine outside.

Here, however, are three coffins crammed into the Tomb Master's position, jammed tightly, seamless and snug.

As if even in death, they refuse to let go, continuing their rivalry in the afterlife.

Li Zhiyuan placed his hand on the center coffin.

This tomb room is the array eye of the entire museum, and this coffin is the core of the array eye.

The young man's knuckles tapped on the coffin surface.

"Creak!"

"Creak!"

"Creak!"

Repeated creaking sounds came from inside, as if the occupant was trying to lift the coffin lid, but due to the tight squeeze from the wives, each attempt failed.

Finally, with a "bang," the coffin lid burst open from the middle.

Amidst a cloud of dust, Zhao Yi sat up from inside, his gaze icy, with a mocking smile at the corner of his mouth.

Li Zhiyuan: "Who are you?"

Zhao Yi: "I am Jiujiang Zhao Yi, the one you've been looking for."

Then Zhao Yi raised his head, shouting upwards:

"You all have your own tasks to handle, and I'm bored. Let me personally deal with this group."

Immediately afterwards,

Zhao Yi lowered his head, looking at the young man standing before him:

"This is hilarious, a kid who's barely grown any hair trying to learn how to run Jianghu?"
