Unfortunately, when she was still underage, Emperor Qin died on the East Patrol Road.

Fusion in the palace, accompanied by a bloody storm, Xi escaped from Xianyang with a group of guards.

Later, Xi found Emperor Qin's body, sent it to Emperor Qin's tomb in an ice-carrying coffin, and locked the Dragon Sealing Stone.

Seeing this, Ye Bai shook his head slightly. Is this Ying Xi the first clan leader of the tomb guard clan?

The bamboo slip continued: Xi is pregnant with the blood of a white tiger, has a lifespan of 212 years, took the secret palace medicine, and gave birth to three sons with his guards, but unfortunately none of them are pregnant with the blood of a white tiger.

At that time, there were Qin guards and thousands of craftsmen from the Six Kingdoms in the tomb.

Before his death, Xi established many of the mottoes of the tomb-guarding clan and guarded the imperial mausoleum from time to time.

As for the blood sacrifice and the sacrifice of each clan leader's soul, these are also the rules left by Xi.

The words on the bamboo slips stopped abruptly here, but Ye Bai still had many questions in his mind.

Why do the tomb-guarding clan require blood sacrifices every once in a while?

Is the sacrifice of the patriarch’s spirit a form of seizing one’s body?

Looking at the cause of Luo's death, it was obvious that he died of bleeding, which means that he also participated in the blood sacrifice before his death.

What is the use of the blood of the Tomb Keepers?

Thinking of the drop of blood he lost, Ye Bai suddenly had an idea and seemed to understand something.

If the facts were as he suspected, the spirit that escaped might not be Emperor Qin, but Emperor Qin's daughter Ying Xi.

He and Qi Tiezui had performed divination on Qin's tomb before, and the divination indicated that the dead would be resurrected.

Because this tomb is the tomb of the Qin Emperor, and the hexagram symbol has a hazy meaning, they preconceived the idea when interpreting the hexagram and interpreted the "dead man" as the Qin Emperor.

Now that he knew that there was a daughter of Emperor Qin who was proficient in witchcraft in the tomb, Ye Bai quickly connected the doubts in his mind.

The spirit body in the white stone is the daughter of Emperor Qin. Before her death, she used a special secret technique to seal her soul in the white meteorite.

However, it may be because the meteorite is too small or there are other unknown reasons.

Spiritual bodies cannot last long in meteorites.

In order to prevent the spirit body from dissipating, Ying Xi used the blood containing the blood of the white tiger to maintain her spirit body. This is why the tomb-guarding clan requires blood sacrifices every once in a while.

After obtaining Ye Bai's blood, the puppet dripped Ye Bai's rich white tiger blood onto the meteorite.

Ying Xi's spirit body revived and asked the tomb-keepers to complete the final blood sacrifice, allowing her to use enough energy to transfer from the meteorite...

As for the tomb-keepers who emerged from the Mercury Cave, they were probably those who were unwilling to cooperate with the blood sacrifice and were thrown into the Mercury Cave by the puppets.

After clearing up the information points in this way, Ye Bai's thoughts flowed smoothly, and he almost knew who Ying Xi's spirit body was attached to.

Among the second-generation women of the Nine Clan, there is only one Chen Wenjin.

Chen Wenjin, Chen Wenjin, your old man, Chen Pi Asi, is dishonest and cruel, and you, a little girl, are also very thoughtful.

After Ye Bai shook his head slightly, he took Luo's body away and walked into the mechanism stone room.

Although the stone room is extremely simple, what you can see is the neatly arranged bronze gears of different sizes.

Some gears are rotating slowly, and some gears are rusty, as if they haven't rotated for a long time.

There are only three pushable handles in the stone chamber, which control the opening of the coffin of Mercury Lake, the three entrances of "Heaven, Earth and Man", and the mechanisms near the Qin Emperor's coffin.

Ye Bai thought for a moment and did not act rashly. Instead, he left the stone room and headed deeper into the cave.

Partridge Whistle and Leather have not come out yet, and are probably trapped in the bloody vines outside the underground palace.

The vines there have a strong desire to attack. When he flew through with his sword before, several vines shot out of the air.

However, the defense of the vines was not high. They were like ordinary hard hemp ropes and were cut off by the sword energy before they even got close to him.

Moreover, from the bamboo slips left by Luo, Ye Bai learned that before entering the tomb, Ying Xi brought two kinds of strange plants from the Treasure Pavilion in the palace in Xianyang.

One type is dead bamboo, which does not see sunlight. It grows underground and produces black water that can improve eyesight.

One is the blood vine, which feeds on living animals and produces blood vine fruits, which can fill your stomach for several days.

The effect of this blood vine fruit is like the Bigu Pill, and Ye Bai is quite curious about it.

In the bloody vine forest, Partridge Whistle was hiding behind a bonfire with leather. Several thick bloody vines twisted like poisonous snakes, intending to attack the two people, but were burned by the flames and kept wandering around.

The situation remains at a stalemate.

Ge couldn't help but said with fear and fear: "Senior Partridge Whistle, this vine forest is not so easy to break through. How about we go back the way we came and walk through the secret passage?"

Although what Ge said was obscure and difficult to understand, Partridge Whistle was proficient in various ancient dialects and could almost understand it.

"It is precisely because this place is difficult to walk that we have to give it a try for future generations. At least we must find out what this vine is afraid of, otherwise it will not be a waste of time." Partridge Whistle expressed his words with gestures, and Ge Da finally understood.

The meaning of partridge whistle.

At this time, a golden sword light fell from the sky, and the surrounding bloody vines were quickly harvested like weeds.

Seeing Ye Bai reveal his figure, Partridge Whistle couldn't help but feel relieved. Ye Bai left in a hurry before, obviously the situation was urgent, but now that he has returned safely, Emperor Qin's matter is probably solved.

"Third brother, are you not in any danger?"

Ye Bai shook his head and whispered what happened under the tomb during this period into Partridge Whistle's ears.

"So, this child is the only one left in the tomb-guarding clan?" Partridge Whistle couldn't help but look at Ge.

Ge Li raised his face, looking puzzled.

"That's right, except for him, basically everyone is dead."

"Then we are leaving the tomb now? We should deal with these bloody vines first. I have seen these vines. They are not afraid of poison or evil blood, but are only afraid of flames. Their attack speed is extremely fast, and they like to drill through the soil..."

Partridge Whistle told everything he discovered about the bloody vines.

"Also, there is a red fruit deep in the vine forest. I wanted to get close to it before, but unfortunately the vines were too dense and I was pushed back several times."

Ye Bai smiled: "It just so happens that I came here just to take a look at the blood vine fruit."

With the partridge whistle leading the way, Ye Bai soon arrived at the place where the blood vine fruit grows.

There are no dead leaves or weeds here, and the black and yellow soil is covered with red vines.

These vines are thicker than the vine trees and seem to be the backbone of the vine forest.

Feeling a stranger approaching, the vines bared their teeth and spread their tentacles, showing a strong desire to attack.

Ye Bai punched out the purple color and stuck it all over his body.

The strange fire carries terrifying high temperatures, evaporating water vapor in the surrounding air and making it hot.

The bloody vines quickly shrank and retreated to the edge of the main vine.

Ye Bai did not get closer, but used the Gengjin sword to pick a dozen blood vine fruits and put them into the space.

Although these vines rely on blood to grow, they are still thousands of years old and are a rare species.
