Nine Rings C199

by MarineTL — Chapter 199: Rest He Yu and I went back and forth, our conversation peppered with the occasional curse word, but by now, my Fourth Brother must have understood the full story. He had never cared much for material objects, and since he had always spoiled me, his attitude was clearly one of wanting to avoid a major confrontation. Thus, Fourth Brother began to plead on my behalf. He turned to my mother and said, "Sister, based on what they're saying, things must have been incredibly dangerous down…

Nine Rings C200

by MarineTL — Chapter 200: Farewell I slept soundly for a solid four or five hours. When I woke up, the beds around me were empty. He Yu had brought my bag in and placed it at the head of the bed. Only a single lamp was lit on the table in the tent. I hadn't been awake long when someone swept aside the tent flap, letting in a gust of cold wind. “Wake up and wash your face. We have roast meat tonight.” Bai Shenxian set a basin of water on an iron rack with one hand while holding a bright pressure lamp in his…

Nine Rings C198

by MarineTL — Chapter 198: Exposed Once the men were mostly dealt with, Fourth Brother waved his hand, dismissing everyone to return to their posts. I could clearly see them all heave a massive sigh of relief at the gesture. As they filed out, only He Yu and I remained, standing stiffly in place like a pair of wooden poles. "Why are you standing so far away? Come, sit down," Fourth Brother said, beckoning us over. I pulled He Yu along as I slowly walked forward. Xiao Wu naturally took a seat opposite me, while…

Nine Rings C196

by MarineTL — Chapter 196: Explosion The white python hissed at me repeatedly, the scales behind its head flaring slightly. I didn't dare move a muscle. The tomb chamber fell silent in an instant. He Yu, carrying Guangtou, was treading across another crossbeam, having already moved a dozen steps toward the center of the chamber. The black python coiled around a pillar, blocking the path between them and me. I could almost hear my own heartbeat. Within a single minute, eight or nine escape plans flashed through my…

Nine Rings C197

by MarineTL — Chapter 197: Gan Rong He Yu frantically helped me get dressed. I dried my hair quickly with a towel and pulled on my jeans, nearly tumbling over in my haste. Fortunately, He Yu had quick reflexes; he caught me and tossed me onto the simple cot in the tent. "What's the rush? Get dressed properly. So what if your mom is here? Look at how scared you are. You didn't even look this terrified when you were in that snake den," he said, shaking out my jacket and smoothing it with his hands. I buckled my…

Nine Rings C194

by MarineTL — Chapter 194: On the Beam These pillars were not easy to climb. The bottom two or three meters had been polished smooth, and even with me propping up He Yu's backside as he clung to one, he struggled for ages only to get about two meters off the ground. Eventually, drenched in sweat and exhausted, he had to have me let him down to rethink our plan. I looked up. The nearest decorative floral pendant was at least three meters higher, and you'd need a hell of reach to grab it. I couldn't help but feel a…

Nine Rings C195

by MarineTL — Chapter 195: The Rescue I watched him prying at the coffin, but my reaction wasn't particularly strong. I tugged at Lu Ayao, who was beside me, and said, "Ignore him. If there's something in that decoy coffin, let him dig for it. It's not the owner's actual casket anyway, so there might not even be any burial goods. Let's focus on getting up first." Just then, another commotion erupted below. I looked down to see that Qiao Sangui had already pried open the second layer of the coffin lid. From my…

Nine Rings C192

by MarineTL — Chapter 192: The Fox Corpse The words had barely left my mouth when Lu Ayao called out to us. I hadn't noticed when he'd moved to the corner of the burial chamber, but at his shout, the rest of us dropped what we were doing and gathered around him. Only Qiao Sangui remained behind, tied up and dumped at the base of a pillar. I walked over to Lu Ayao, flashlight in hand. Before I even reached him, I saw what his beam was resting on. It was the rotting heap of an animal carcass. It was impossible to…
