The unfinished statue in front of me.

It features cloud and thunder patterns unique to the Western Zhou Dynasty.

This indicates that it is a product of the Western Zhou Dynasty.

But they just came out of the tomb of Li Chunfeng from the Tang Dynasty.

Upon hearing this, Partridge Whistle and the others...

For a moment, I was caught in a dilemma.

Li Xiaohu shook his head and said, "Why are you so conflicted, Senior Brother?"

"So what if this is a Western Zhou Dynasty tomb?"

"It doesn't prevent us from finding Li Chunfeng's coffin."

"and......"

Li Xiaohu suddenly smiled.

"The truth isn't that hard to understand."

Why were so many items from the Western Zhou Dynasty found in Li Chunfeng's tomb?

"This indicates that there was already a Western Zhou Dynasty tomb here before Li Chunfeng's tomb."

Jin Suanpan and Zhegu Shao suddenly realized.

Jin Suanpan then asked, "So you mean...?"

"Did Li Chunfeng usurp the throne and build his own tomb in this Western Zhou Dynasty tomb?"

Li Xiaohu thought for a moment, then said, "They're about the same."

"But you've all noticed it too."

"Most of the traces of these Western Zhou tombs we discovered are unfinished products."

"To this day, no burial objects or coffins from the Western Zhou period have been found, indicating that this Western Zhou tomb was abandoned before it was even completed."

"Later, Li Chunfeng discovered this auspicious site and built his tomb here as well."

Now everyone understood.

Partridge Whistle said, "So, Brother Little Tiger, you mean this is actually a tomb within a tomb?"

“That’s right.” Li Xiaohu nodded, confirming the answer.

"Haha." A hint of admiration appeared in Jin Suanpan's eyes once again.

"As expected of Li Chunfeng."

"To build one's own grave in someone else's grave."

"It not only adds an extra layer of security but also misleads people."

"If someone is not mentally strong, even if they solve all the previous problems, they will find it difficult to persevere to the end and not be able to find Li Chunfeng's tomb if they do not understand this point."

Li Xiaohu smiled helplessly and urged everyone to continue deeper into the area.

The labyrinthine cave beneath the Dragon Ridge Caves.

Just as the rumors said.

Numerous caves are intricately connected together.

Li Xiaohu and his group traversed several caves but still found no trace of the next tomb chamber.

The group came to a fork in the road again.

While I was hesitating about which way to go.

"Meow!"

"Meow! ————"

Li Xiaohu's cat suddenly let out a sharp cry.

Jin Yunu and the round-tailed tiger stepped out of the crowd and growled softly in their vicinity, as if warning the approaching enemies.

Li Xiaohu and the others immediately became alert.

They all took out their preferred weapons and instinctively formed a circle.

He stared intently into the surrounding darkness.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

In the silent cave.

Suddenly, a series of faint sounds came from the air.

It sounds very dense.

Furthermore, Partridge Whistle felt that these sounds had a somewhat familiar feel to them.

"Insects?" Partridge Whistle guessed.

The voice just fell.

Suddenly, a giant black shadow crawled out from a fork in the road in front of them.

The dark figure slowly crept into the area illuminated by the firelight.

Partridge Whistle and his companions were astonished by what they discovered!

It was a giant spider!

The spider was over a meter tall! It was completely black, and its eight legs were covered with sharp barbs! The claws at the ends of its legs were as sharp as knives, reflecting a chilling light in the firelight!

The spider's eight compound eyes were spinning around, reflecting the images of several people.

The giant claws on its mouth opened and closed repeatedly, making a "crackling" sound, as if it couldn't wait for the food.

"It really is an insect!" Partridge Whistle exclaimed in surprise.

Spiders are insects too, only this one was much bigger than he had imagined!

"Just?" Li Xiaohu suddenly laughed and said, "I didn't expect Brother Partridge Whistle to be so optimistic."

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

It looked like it was meant to slap Partridge Whistle in the face.

Suddenly, many small spiders crawled out from under the giant spider's body.

It's said to be a little spider.

Actually, its size is not much different from that of Li Xiaohu's cat.

And all around them, even above their heads, wherever there were caves or cracks in the rocks, these spiders were constantly emerging!

In a dimly lit place.

The dense swarm of black spiders looked like a black wave, sweeping towards the group from all directions.

"Hah!"

The giant spider suddenly raised several of its forelegs and hissed fiercely at Li Xiaohu and the others!

Taking advantage of this moment, they were able to discover it.

The giant spider's abdomen had a terrifying human face on it!

It was as if that human face was screaming at them!

"A black worm with a human face!"

The group had seen this type of spider before.

But none of them expected it.

There were so many, such large, human-faced black worms inside the cave!

"Whoosh!" Li Xiaohu blew a strange whistle.

The cats immediately gathered back and then rushed towards the cave where the adult-faced black lemur was no longer guarding it.

Two tigers, one tiger, and one horse take the lead.

"Meow! ————"

It roared and charged into the pile of human-faced black worms, clearing a path for everyone with its sharp claws.

Jin Yunu and the water-crossing gourd cat assisted from the side.

A way out was quickly found.

"What are you all standing there for?" Li Xiaohu shouted. "Run!"

Li Xiaohu urged everyone to hurry up and follow, and before the others could react, they quickly made their escape.

Partridge Whistle and the others came to their senses...
