Sun Baozi looked at the two rows of words on either side, somewhat dazed, and said: "Those who enter this gate have death but no life - I'm not saying it, the gate is? Not even a gate exists, how can there be death but no life?"

  He had just finished speaking when Aiguo explained beside him: "There used to be a gate between the two stone piles opposite, but later I don't know how that gate disappeared."

  "Oh" Sun Baozi glanced at Ai Guo, chuckled and said: "Not that I'm saying, Big Fruit, you know a lot. Don't know if this is from some secret book in your committee?"

  Ai Guo ignored Sun Baozi and first took off the night vision device on his head, put it away, looked at Yang Xiao next to Sun Baozi with a serious face, and said: "Yang Jiao should know no less than me, why don't you go ask him?"

  Sun Baozi didn't buy into this, he grinned at Ai Guo and said: "Since you know there's no door here, then you should also know what kind of big demon ghost was killed inside, right? Big fruit, anyway the big demon ghost inside is already dead, sooner or later we'll see it, just speak up a bit earlier and let our hearts have some bottom"

  Seeing Yang Xiao still tightly closed his lips and said nothing, Ai Guo was silent for a while before a word suddenly popped out of his mouth: "Dragon..."

  Sun Baozi and the investigator behind him were both stunned at the same time, then Sun Baozi twitched his mouth and said to Ai Guo: "Big fruit, if you casually make up a divine beast to fool me, it's not interesting. Saying dragon is not as good as saying Qilin, I can still believe 20% of what you say about Qilin..."

  Before Sun Baozi finished speaking, Yang Xiao let out a sigh and interrupted him, continuing to say: "The dragon inside was killed by a big shot back in the day. After the dragon died, its aura leaked out and attracted all the evil spirits from outside."

  Yang Xiao's words made Sun Baozi believe a bit more, but he still found fault in his words: "No way, didn't Da Guozi just say that there was a big demon ghost inside? Can dragons also turn into demon ghosts?"

  Yang Xiao turned his head to glance at Ai Guo, then said: "That big shot who summoned thunder to kill the dragon didn't think that after the dragon died it would turn into a vengeful spirit. That big shot later used an enormous amount of energy to get rid of it again. There's also another saying outside, calling this place Longzhong."

  After opening the chat box, Yang Wei continued to speak. He paused for a moment and then muttered to himself: "Years ago, in order to avoid my uncle, I hid in Xuan Hu for three years, and the place where I lived was not far from here. Who would have thought that after listening to so many years of legend, the address is right under our feet? It's really a blessing in disguise. If I had come here back then, who knows what kind of scene it would be now?"

  Yang Xiao's words seemed to have a nose and eyes, and Sun Baozi's heart had some faith. Just as he was starting to think about the next step in his mind, Ai Guo suddenly turned around and said to Sun Baozi and others: "You must think carefully, the dragon corpse inside has leaked its breath for thousands of years, and it's not certain what will be brought out. It's like what's written on those two signboards, going in doesn't mean you can come out."

  "You don't have to urge us" Sun Baozi said with a hint of a smile, looking at Aiko: "You only discovered this place by following us suddenly, and the support from behind is insufficient. If we didn't follow you in together, then you would be in a desperate situation."

  After listening to Sun Baozi's words, the smile on Ai Guo's face began to freeze. However, Sun Baozi's tone suddenly changed and he continued: "But since we've already arrived at the door, we have to go in and take a look. It's not that I'm saying you, Big Fruit, but if we enter together, it's uncertain who will die."

  After finishing, Sun Pangzi took a look at Yang Xiao and said: "Old Yang, is there anything else inside? Da Guozi says half hidden and half unknown, and she herself doesn't know the other half. Can you know more than her?"

  Yang Xiao looked at Sun Baozi and shook his head, saying: "I know it's just like this..."

  His words were interrupted by Sun Baozi's greasy voice before he could finish speaking. Sun, the deputy, whispered in Yang Xiao's ear: "Old Yang, I don't care what you're involved in here, I won't go tattle to Old Wu. It's not that I'm saying this, but I'm a person who can take advantage of opportunities when they arise, and if I can't, then I'll give them away. Today's opportunity is too big, really not something I can take advantage of."

  After listening to Sun Baozi's words, a similar expression appeared on Yang Xiao's face. He looked like he wanted to say something but stopped himself. After a while, he spoke in a low voice to Sun Baozi: "In the past, the one who eliminated that dragon was Wu Director's arch-nemesis. It has been rumored that person had something that even Wu Director feared. Sun Juzhang, you can't expect me to always carry this big nail to scare people, right?"

  After listening, Sun Baozi's eyes narrowed. Even things that Old Wu was afraid of, he couldn't bear to part with them. It would be better to do a favor and make it easier to order Yang Diao around in the future. Thinking of this, Sun Baozi chuckled again and said to Yang Diao: "Not that I'm saying it, but your business is my business. After today's matter is over, no matter what's inside, I'll let you pick first, and then I'll register the remaining things."

  Sun Baozi finished speaking and didn't wait for Yang Fei to be polite. He directly said to Ai Guo, "Big fruit, come in. Whether it's life or death, we have to take a look inside. You lead the way, and we'll follow."

  When Sun Pangzi started talking, Aiguo was still smiling, but when Sun Pangzi asked her to lead the way, Aiguo's face changed. She had appeared with the intention of letting Sun Pangzi and others take the risk, now Sun Pangzi asked her to lead the way, if things went wrong, she would really fulfill that couplet - "Those who enter this door have death but no life".

  Just as Aiguo was about to make an excuse to avoid it, unexpectedly the usually cautious Yang Xiao suddenly changed his temper and heard him say: "I'll go instead, except for me, I'm afraid anyone else who goes in will die." After finishing speaking, before Sun Baozi could stop him, Yang Xiao started walking towards the middle of the two piles of strange rocks.

  Sun Baozi and the other investigators hastily followed behind Yang Xiao, not because they were afraid that Yang Xiao would suffer a loss, but because it seemed that only by closely following Yang Xiao could they avoid suffering a loss themselves. In the end, contrary to Sun Baozi's expectations, Yang Xiao walked at the very front, with him and the other people from the polling station tightly following behind, while Ai Guo, who was originally supposed to lead the way, was now walking at the very back of the group.

  Yang Xiao was the first to walk into the narrow path between the two rows of strange stone piles, and he seemed to have encountered nothing unusual. However, when Sun Baozi and his men walked in, they felt a surge of hot air emanating from within. The further they went in, the more intense this hot air became. After walking for not too long, Sun Baozi even felt like two streams of hot air were rushing out of his nostrils with each breath.

  It's the middle of winter outside, but Sun Baozi and his group are already sweating profusely, their faces flushed red. This path seems endless, as if they'll never reach the end. Finally, Sun Baozi can't bear the heat anymore and stops Yang Yu, saying: "Old Yang, let's take a break first. How much longer until we reach the Longzhuang position inside? Can you give me an estimate? Walking with our heads down like this, it's either exhaustion or heatstroke, who can endure it?"

  Yang Xiao turned his head and glanced at Sun Baozi, who looked as if nothing was wrong. There wasn't even an extra bead of sweat on his face. It seemed that Yang Xiao had originally wanted to say something to Sun Baozi, but after seeing Ai Guo behind them, he smiled strangely and then said to Sun Baozi: "I haven't been here before either, but at this speed, it'll be about ten more minutes or so - you two take a look around and enjoy the view, save some energy, we still need to keep moving forward."

  Yang Xiao's suspicious smile caught the attention of Sun Wuzi and others, they followed Yang Xiao's gaze and saw that Ai Guo, who was walking at the back, had unknowingly taken off his clothes. He now only wore a black inner garment, judging from the bulging backpack behind him, the removed clothes should have been stuffed inside. Now, apart from the inner garment, shoes and socks on his body, and the pendant around his neck, he only held that Uzi submachine gun in his hand.

  Sun Baozi, Xiong Wanyi and several others who were already excited started whistling at Ai Guo. As for Xi Menlian and the others, they were already feeling hot and bothered, but now seeing this scene, a surge of heat rushed to their foreheads, followed by two streams of hot tears slowly flowing out of their noses.

  At this time, Sun Baozi and the others didn't feel that the heat was unbearable anymore. In their hearts, they still had a faint feeling of not being hot enough. Sun Baozi smiled and said to Ai Guo: "Big fruit, I'm not saying it's you, but are you still carrying out the task of comforting the troops? You're too polite, tell Huang and Hao, the two directors, that mainland compatriots thank them." As soon as he finished speaking, the investigators behind him started teasing.

  But Aiko, on the other hand, acted as if nothing was wrong and even gave a flying kiss to Sun Baozi and the surveyors from the Public Opinion Bureau. Then she said: "No need to thank the two chairmen in person, just give me 10% of what's inside Longzhuang and that's fine"

  "This was said to you, even Lin Zhiling came and it's not good" Sun Wuzi smiled slightly, just wanting to eat some more tofu when he suddenly heard a low growl from behind him. The sound of the growl hadn't ended before it suddenly changed tone, turning into a mournful howl, which also stopped abruptly. A bad omen spread over from where the howling came from.

  Before everyone could understand what was happening, seven or eight huge black figures rushed out from the end of the alley opposite them and charged straight at Sun Baozi and his group.
