97: The sounds from inside the coffin, the unease among the crowd.
This was all just his speculation; it couldn't be taken as a certainty.
There was no reason to believe whatever he said, right?
"Exactly! Even if it's as you say, whose bones are those on the ground? Why did they turn into white bones lying there? They're covered in dust, so it looks like it's been a long time. Don't tell me this woman killed them?"
Cai Xukun chimed in from the side.
"It was the people who sent her in."
Ye Bai ignored their sarcasm and responded calmly.
Speaking of which, Wu Jing seemed to think of something. He hurried over to the skeletons and noticed that the remains were covered in scars.
These scars were deep enough to see the bone, testifying to how miserably they died; almost all the injuries had reached the bone.
If it were a human... they really might not have such strength and skill.
So the possibility Ye Bai mentioned wasn't non-existent.
These people were all harmed by this woman; she must have undergone a corpse transformation.
"These people died very miserably. Perhaps this woman had already undergone a corpse transformation a thousand years ago."
Wu Jing could confirm Ye Bai's speculation.
"She wanted revenge—revenge against everyone who hurt her, including the monarch of the Yelang Kingdom."
Ye Bai nodded slightly after hearing Wu Jing's words.
"It's just a pity she failed. If she had succeeded, this Mausoleum wouldn't exist, and she wouldn't be imprisoned here."
Yang Mi said, casting a deep look at the coffin.
She could understand how painfully this woman had lived and how desperate her desire for revenge against her husband was.
But in the end, she was still suppressed, even confined within this small outer coffin to become the guardian of her enemy.
Not only could she not kill him, but she also had to guard his Mausoleum. This point was truly infuriating.
Yang Mi's words left Reba, Bai Lu, Yang Chaoyue, and Meng Ziyi with mixed emotions.
Indeed!
The unluckiest person was this woman. Married to someone she didn't like, she ended up with a tragic end, not even leaving behind a single child... Her life was truly too hard.
It was no wonder she underwent a corpse transformation. If it were them, having experienced so much, they might be even more crazed than her.
Just as they were still feeling sympathy for this woman... at that moment—
Bang!
A sound came from inside the coffin, causing everyone's hearts to skip a beat.
Hearing the sound, Yang Mi, Bai Lu, and the others subconsciously stood behind Ye Bai, everyone staring nervously at the coffin.
As for Zhang Dada, Cai Xukun, and the other two, they were severely startled by the sudden sound.
They subconsciously shuddered.
They hurriedly ran behind Wu Jing, deliberately maintaining a distance from the outer coffin.
The viewers in the Live Stream Room were also startled by the sound, so scared that they all shivered in front of their computers.
[Holy crap! Scared me to death! Did that sound just come from inside the outer coffin? I was almost scared to death!]
[It's not just you! Me too! I jumped out of my skin. What kind of place is this?]
[Is the thing inside about to wake up? Or does she know Ye Bai and the others are here and is preparing to make a move?]
[It's very possible! This woman is a mutated corpse. She might break out of the coffin at any moment. What will they do then? They're not Master Lin; can they handle a zombie?]
[I don't think they can beat this zombie. Even if Ye Bai is powerful, he can't kill a zombie. Don't movies say zombies are invulnerable? Can they even fight that? And they seem to suck blood, right? Holy crap! I'm scared. In a bit, we'll see the coffin lid fly off, and then a Female Corpse will stand up... a terrifying Female Corpse...]
[Damn it! Stop talking!!]
The viewers were now discussing nervously.
In that instant, they had already imagined many scenes, all of which were terrifying.
The professors of the Archaeology Academy were also staring at the live stream.
All the professors were nervous.
Because everything Ye Bai said was true. They had encountered zombies before, but the final outcome... 'heavy losses' wasn't enough to describe it.
It was simply too gruesome to look at.
"If they encounter a zombie without powerful firepower, will they have any hope of survival?"
One of the professors swallowed hard and asked with a trembling voice.
"What do you think? Have you forgotten what it was like when we encountered a zombie back then? I just hope the Search and Rescue Team can get in quickly."
"Perhaps they still have a glimmer of hope..."
One of the professors suddenly spoke up, his expression extremely solemn.
The other professors remained silent; the atmosphere was heavy.
The Xie Family and Boss Li's groups were both watching Ye Bai as they saw the Female Corpse about to break out of the coffin.
Ordinary zombies wouldn't be a threat in front of *that* person, but they wondered if it would be the same in front of Ye Bai.
Thinking of this!
They watched the live stream with serious expressions, waiting to see how Ye Bai would handle it next.
The high-level executives of the program were also so nervous they didn't dare to breathe loudly.
That's a zombie, not a human!
It's a moving corpse.
This was something they had only seen in horror movies, but now... was the movie becoming reality?
"I... I'll call the Search and Rescue Team and ask where they are. Tell them to hurry up and rescue Ye Bai and the others... That's a zombie; it's no joke."
The assistant behind the director hurriedly took out his phone to contact the Search and Rescue Team.
Inside the Mausoleum.
Bang!
The sound came from the outer coffin in the side chamber once again.
Zhang Dada, Wu Jing, and the others kept their distance, staring at the outer coffin with pale, terrified faces.
Bang! Bang! Bang!!!
The sounds from inside the outer coffin were much louder than before, and the rhythm was faster.
Each thud felt like it was striking their hearts.
"Brother Jing... let's go! We're no match for it, let's get out of here!"
Cai Xukun pulled at Wu Jing's clothes and spoke urgently.
Bang!
The coffin lid was heavily lifted and then dropped back down. They clearly saw a pair of pale hands appear inside.
"Go, go!!!"
Huang Zitao's legs were trembling. He gripped Wu Jing's clothes tightly and pulled him towards the door.
Bai Lu, Yang Mi, and Reba were all extremely nervous, their grip on Ye Bai's clothes tightening involuntarily.
"Ye Bai, should we leave too? This Female Corpse is about to come out."
Yang Mi said with a trembling voice.
"We can't leave."
Ye Bai shook his head.
"Huh? Why?"
Reba was stunned. Why couldn't they leave?
The next moment!
Boom!
Bang!
The sound of the Stone Door slamming shut came from behind them.
Everyone looked over, their expressions changing drastically.
