272: The magical Bauhinia bamboo has something else going on.

"Although this poison is overbearing, it might not necessarily be able to do anything to me," Ye Bai said with a smile.

Hearing this, everyone became even more surprised.

Regardless, the fact that Ye Bai dared to risk using poison to save someone was enough to show that he was truly bold and unafraid of death.

Ye Bai dug out two Passages in the Stone Chamber, each five meters long and half a meter wide. He moved the Female Corpse along with the coffin to the end of a Passage and then sealed it off to prevent it from being exposed to the wind and rain outside.

"Brother Ye..."

"What is it?"

"The Feng Shui layout here has been destroyed. How are we supposed to leave?" everyone inquired.

"Based on this position, we can deduce how to leave by calculating the Feng Shui layout," Ye Bai said.

"That easy?" Everyone was taken aback.

"Hurry up and deduce it."

After Ye Bai finished speaking, he took out his divination compass and began to deduce the Feng Shui layout.

Everyone looked at Ye Bai with expectant expressions.

Ye Bai fiddled with the divination compass for a while and finally said, "Alright, it should be fine now."

"I just don't know if we'll be able to get out smoothly," someone said worriedly.

"It shouldn't be a problem. I feel that the Feng Shui layout here has been destroyed, so we should be able to walk out safe and sound!"

"I hope so."

"Everyone, get ready!"

Rumble!

Suddenly, a loud noise came from the mountain wall. Immediately after, the entire mountain shook violently, teetering as if it were about to collapse.

"What's going on?" Everyone was startled and fell into a panic.

"Leave quickly!" Ye Bai shouted in a deep voice.

Whoosh!

Ye Bai was the first to rush into the end of the Passage, sprinting toward the depths of the Cave.

Seeing this, the others quickly followed.

After Ye Bai ran out of the Cave, he saw dark clouds gathering outside, with thunder, lightning, and a torrential downpour.

Ye Bai and the others stood at the entrance of the Cave, staring at the pouring rain, each of them dumbfounded.

"Brother Ye, what should we do?" Yang Mi said beside him with a long face.

"What else can we do? Keep running," Ye Bai shrugged.

"Run? Run where? This Cave has already collapsed; there's no way out at all," the person next to him said with a miserable expression.

Ye Bai glanced at the Cave and said calmly, "Don't forget that when we entered the Cave, there were three Passages."

"That's right, why didn't we consider that?"

"Let's quickly retreat back to those Passages from earlier." Everyone reacted immediately.

Thus, everyone retreated to the entrance of the Passage they had come from.

"Eh?" Everyone suddenly cried out in surprise.

"What's wrong?" Ye Bai asked, puzzled.

"This Passage entrance has actually been opened up again!"

"What?"

"What's the situation?" Ye Bai narrowed his eyes slightly.

The exit of this Passage was originally blocked, but now it had been reopened.

Could it be... that someone cleared the Passage entrance?

"Who is so clever and knows how to adapt?" Ye Bai murmured.

Soon, Ye Bai and the others passed through this Passage entrance.

The Passage exit emerged into another valley.

Inside the valley, it was lush with greenery, filled with the fragrance of flowers and the singing of birds, and the spiritual energy was abundant.

Everyone was stunned, their faces full of disbelief.

"Wow, this is simply more beautiful than a fairyland!"

"There must be treasures here!"

"Haha, I guessed right! There are definitely Antiques and rare medicinal herbs here!"

Everyone discussed happily.

"Brother Ye, let's quickly find where the treasures are."

Ye Bai, however, frowned and fell into deep thought.

He vaguely felt that things were not as simple as they imagined; a sense of conspiracy seemed to loom over everyone's hearts.

Ye Bai walked forward, and after searching for a moment, he suddenly stopped and turned to look toward the left.

"There's a plant over there."

"Isn't that just a weed?" someone asked in surprise.

"No," Ye Bai said.

"Could there be something fishy about this little sapling?" someone asked suspiciously.

"Boss Ye Bai, are you sure there's really something strange about it?" the audience in the Live Stream Room couldn't help but ask.

"Of course," Ye Bai said decisively.

Everyone was stunned; they really hadn't seen that it was a special plant.

"This is Bauhinia Bamboo, and it has detoxifying properties!" Ye Bai pointed at the little sapling on the ground and said excitedly.

"What? It actually has detoxifying properties?"

Upon hearing this, everyone showed excited expressions and rushed over.

Ye Bai crouched down, examined it for a while, and finally said, "This Bauhinia Bamboo has only lived for no more than two years!"

"It has such a powerful effect in less than two years? This... is too impressive!"

Everyone was deeply shocked.

Ye Bai stood up, brushed the dirt off his palms, and said, "The air here is moist and misty, and the spiritual energy is abundant. It's suitable for growing all kinds of plants and medicinal herbs!"

"There really is treasure here!" everyone shouted excitedly.

"Since it's treasure, we should naturally distribute it, with everyone getting an equal share," Ye Bai said.

"I'm afraid that might not be appropriate," Yang Mi said hesitantly.

"What's inappropriate about it? Could it be that I discovered these things all by myself? Why shouldn't it be distributed equally?" Ye Bai said coldly.

"This..." Everyone was hesitant, as after all, they hadn't put in any effort.

"Everyone, don't argue. Let's just listen to Master Ye Bai," Meng Ziyi persuaded.

The rest of the group nodded, thinking Ye Bai had a point. After all, since they hadn't contributed much, they couldn't just get treasures for nothing, right?

"Then thank you, Brother Ye!" everyone said happily.

Ye Bai scanned the crowd calmly and said, "Everyone remember, in the future, if we encounter similar mechanisms, hidden weapons, Antiques, calligraphy, paintings, or precious medicinal herbs, we must work together to break the formation. Otherwise, it will easily lead to large-scale casualties, and we might not even be able to save our lives then."

"Don't worry, from now on, we'll all listen to Brother Ye!" everyone said in unison.

Ye Bai smiled, then pulled a jade pendant from his robe and handed it to the group.

"What is this?" everyone asked, puzzled.

"This is a Protective Talisman; it can block one attack. If you encounter danger, you can use this jade pendant to block it, and it can save your life," Ye Bai said.

Everyone was overjoyed upon hearing this. With this jade pendant, it was equivalent to having an extra defensive trump card.

Next, everyone began to collect the treasures scattered around.

Someone even picked up a ceramic cup containing clear, sweet spring water that was emitting misty steam.

Someone else found a Jade Thumb Ring worth tens of thousands of yuan. Wearing it on their right middle finger, it looked exceptionally luxurious.

The further into the valley the group walked, the more surprised they became.

"Brother Ye, there's actually a Lotus Flower growing there!"

"Holy crap! What species is this? Why haven't I seen it before?"

"This lotus is too special; it's actually blooming with a seven-colored glow!"

Everyone clicked their tongues in admiration.

Just then, near a rock deep in the valley, a cave appeared, pitch black and bottomless.

"Brother Ye, do you think there will be treasures in here?" everyone asked curiously.

Ye Bai looked at the cave and said, "You guys stay here. I'll go in and explore first."

After speaking, Ye Bai ducked into the cave.
