73: Upon entering the tomb and opening the door, one encounters a vermilion wall.

[The inside of the Tomb is no trivial matter; it is fraught with danger. Do not go down lightly!!!]

This bullet comment was a warning from the Archaeological Team.

When the viewers in the Live Stream Room saw this bullet comment, they were terrified once again.

[Yes, yes, yes!!! The Tomb is full of dangers. Just look at that Corpse Scent Konjac; even something as terrifying as that has appeared. If they go down, who knows what will happen?]

[Oh no! I was so caught up in the excitement that I forgot how dangerous the Tomb is. They can't go!!]

[I was thinking, with Little Brother Ye Bai there, maybe it'll be fine!!]

[Cut the crap. If anything happens to my Kun Kun, even if Ye Bai dies ten times over, it wouldn't be enough to make up for it. They absolutely must not go.]

[Ahhh!! Da Mimi, you guys must not go down!!]

The viewers in the Live Stream Room were now incredibly worried about their respective idols.

They were terrified that the idols would recklessly enter the Tomb... The professors from the Archaeology Academy were stunned when they saw the entrance... This entrance was truly baffling. Without knowledge of the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams... it would be very difficult to find. Especially considering the meticulously observed Statues; without returning these Statues to their positions, the entrance would never have been found.

They felt deeply shaken... If Ye Bai didn't join the Archaeology Academy, it would truly be a massive loss!!

Inside the Forbidden Ground.

Yang Mi, Reba, and Yang Chaoyue smelled the stench in the air and instinctively shuddered, covering their noses.

This smell was a very peculiar kind of foul!

And the temperature felt even lower than before... "We see the Tomb entrance. What should we do? Are we going down?"

Wu Jing stared in surprise at the pitch-black entrance, feeling an inexplicable chill down his spine and a sense of dread.

Upon hearing Wu Jing's words, the Cameraman relayed the message from the Archaeology Academy.

When the celebrities heard that even the people from the Archaeology Academy had issued a warning, their hearts skipped a beat.

Then this Tomb really was fraught with danger; they couldn't go!

Ye Bai stared at the entrance for a long time, then directly ignored the Cameraman's words and jumped down without hesitation.

"Ye Bai! It's dangerous! Come back up quickly!"

Seeing Ye Bai go down, Reba shouted out in anxiety. Seeing that Ye Bai had no intention of turning back, she followed right after him.

In any case, she had made up her mind: wherever Ye Bai went, she would follow.

Seeing Reba go down, Meng Ziyi followed without a second thought.

Seeing the three of them go down, Yang Mi, Yang Chaoyue, and Bai Lu looked at each other and followed them down the steps.

"Hey, hey, hey, have you all lost your minds? Or do you not care about your futures? This will affect our future career paths."

Seeing several people go down, Cai Xukun spoke up hurriedly.

Then he looked at Wu Jing beside him.

It was so terrifying inside this palace; Wu Jing couldn't go down. If he did, they would be scared to death.

"Brother Jing! Brother Jing! You can't go down. If we just go down like this, we'll be Tomb Robbers."

Hua Chenyu saw Wu Jing's intention and hurriedly pulled him back, speaking in a panic.

"Tomb Robbers? The archaeology professors only said it was dangerous, they didn't say we weren't allowed in. What if Ye Bai and the girls run into danger?"

"If you're scared, stay here."

Wu Jing had no favorable feelings toward them now; he'd rather just follow Ye Bai to see the true appearance of this Tomb.

After speaking, Wu Jing followed them down.

Zhang Dada, Hua Chenyu, Huang Zitao, and Cai Xukun looked at each other. They were all terrified. Now that the two capable ones had gone down, they would be left here waiting for reinforcements... "Um, well! As a pillar of the entertainment circle, I feel I should have an adventurous spirit. These are historical artifacts, after all. We can show the audience the scenery of our Great Xia's Tombs. I'm going down."

Cai Xukun spoke first, finding a plausible excuse for himself.

Huang Zitao, Zhang Dada, and Hua Chenyu all knew in their hearts that Cai Xukun was only following because he was afraid; the excuse was just for show.

After Cai Xukun went down, Zhang Dada and the other two followed behind.

Inside the Tomb.

Ye Bai was the first to arrive at a Passage.

The air carried a faint stench, and there was even a chilly sensation.

It felt like gusts of cold wind blowing on them, but besides the cold, there was also a strange sensation.

They felt a sense of irritability, even an urge to lose their tempers.

Reba and Meng Ziyi felt this way now, so they took out their flashlights to provide light.

They noticed the color of the walls was abnormal, glowing with a deep red hue.

"Why is the color of this wall so strange..."

As Meng Ziyi spoke, she leaned closer to the wall and couldn't help but sniff it.

A foul stench rushed straight into her nostrils.

"What is this? It stinks so much!"

"The stench we smelled outside just now was this very smell."

Meng Ziyi covered her nose and occasionally fanned the air in front of her, as if that would reduce the stench.

"Ye Bai, what is this? Why does this wall smell so bad?"

Although Reba wasn't covering her nose, her furrowed brows showed she was uncomfortable.

"It's built from a mixture of cinnabar, glutinous rice, and earth."

Ye Bai just glanced at it and spoke calmly.

"Huh? cinnabar? glutinous rice?"

"Why would these things be added to a wall?"

Yang Chaoyue and Bai Lu followed close behind, arriving at Ye Bai's side just in time to hear his words.

"Aren't cinnabar and glutinous rice used for warding off evil? Why are they mixed into the walls?"

Yang Mi frowned. She had read that in Taoism, cinnabar and glutinous rice were used to ward off evil, much like Talismanic Incantations, which also used cinnabar.

Ye Bai shook his head and said nothing, instead stepping forward and walking down the Passage.

Meng Ziyi and Reba endured the stench and fear, following closely behind Ye Bai. Looking at the deep red walls, Reba felt terrified, and goosebumps rose on her skin layer by layer; she constantly felt a chilly draft.

Reba swallowed hard, looked at Ye Bai's arm, and gripped it without hesitation, as if doing so would give her a sense of security.

Seeing this, Meng Ziyi followed suit.

Seeing their actions, Yang Mi and Bai Lu were filled with regret. Why hadn't they seized the initiative sooner...? Wu Jing, Cai Xukun, and the other three followed behind; seeing the deep red walls, they were extremely nervous.

Their gazes occasionally scanned the walls.

They even covered their mouths, not daring to breathe in the stench.

In the Live Stream Room—

[Damn! Never mind Da Mimi being scared, even I'm scared through the screen. Mixing cinnabar into the walls is freaking terrifying.]

[Wait!! Why was cinnabar added to the walls? No wonder they look so red. Archaeology really isn't for ordinary people; I could rack my brains and still not understand it.]

[I don't care why right now, I just know I'm scared!!]
