Ye Fan closely guarded Shen Tianyin, fearing that something unexpected would happen.

"What on earth is that thing? Why is it so scary? It tore a living person into pieces in just a few seconds."

Recalling the terrifying nature of that beast, Shen Tianyin couldn't help but shudder.

Seeing that he was still frightened, Ye Fan quickly patted his hand, indicating that he didn't need to be afraid, and then slowly said: "It should be the ancient wolf."

"Ancient wolf? Isn't that a creature that has been extinct for decades?"

Ji Lao was surprised and looked at Ye Fan in confusion.

Ye Fan nodded: "The ancient wolf is a social creature. It is bloodthirsty, carnivorous, cruel, very intelligent, and extremely cunning. There is usually one wolf as the leader. Once prey is found, it will count them. They only followed them, attacked them in groups, and finally killed their prey. Later, due to the destruction of their habitat, their numbers dropped sharply until they died.”

In previous lives, ancient wolves still existed, but not in large numbers.

Then, with the death of the last few ancient wolves, they were completely extinct. However, I did not expect that traces of ancient wolves could still be found in this Thousand Buddha Mountain.

"Fortunately, what you encountered this time was not a pack of wolves, but only a few lone ones. Otherwise, even if we arrived in time, we might not be able to save you."

Shen Bao was still in panic, still speaking in fear.

"Don't worry, aren't we fine now? By the way, what was the result of your entering the ancient tomb? Did you find the owner of the tomb?"

Knowing that Shen Bao had been lingering in fear, Shen Tianyin quickly changed the subject.

Sure enough, Shen Bao nodded: "We found the main tomb chamber, but we lack the tools to open the door, so Ye Fan asked us to come out first, rest for the night, and then go in early tomorrow morning."

Then, he told Shen Tianyin everything that happened after entering the tomb in detail.

The more she talked, the more excited Shen Tianyin became, and her pretty face became rosy.

"Great, you can enter the tomb tomorrow."

Seeing Shen Tianyin's excited expression, both Ye Fan and Shen Bao smiled with satisfaction in their hearts.

Because something unexpected happened, Ye Fan specially sent someone to keep watch that night.

Nothing happened until dawn.

"Where is Village Chief Kong?"

Looking at the few scattered people left, Ye Fan frowned and asked.

Dong Dabiao also frowned at this time: "Kong Weiren and the two Nancun villagers are gone."

"Damn it."

Ye Fan cursed angrily. With the situation in front of him, even a fool would know where they were going.

"Brother Ye, let's go in quickly. If it's too late..."

Dong Dabiao had a sullen face. He didn't expect that Kong Weiren would play such a trick. It was really abominable.

But Ye Fan snorted coldly, "He is looking for death himself, why bother to save him?"

With that said, let Shen Bao arrange for someone to cook.

It wasn't until an hour later, after everyone had breakfast, that they entered the tomb in an orderly manner.

Qiao Ping followed Ye Fan all the time, with unconcealable excitement on her face.

As the gravekeepers of this tomb, their family has guarded this tomb for generations.

Until her generation, they no longer knew the exact location of the tomb, but they still stuck to it.

Today, I finally have the honor to enter the tomb in person. How can I conceal the excitement in my heart?

"Sister Qiao, Mr. Lei and I came in yesterday and found some clues. We found that this is a tomb from the Liao Dynasty. So, you should be a Jurchen descendant."

Tomb keepers are all selected from the direct descendants of the tomb owner, and it is impossible for outsiders to be selected.

Therefore, there is no doubt that Qiao Ping is a descendant of Liao people.

Qiao Ping nodded: "According to the genealogy, we are indeed descendants of the Liao people, but which one we are is not recorded in the genealogy. Perhaps it is to prevent future generations from clinging to the reputation of their ancestors."

Qiao Ping was very open to this.

Ye Fan smiled and didn't say much. Anyway, as long as you open the door of the main tomb chamber, you can know who the owner of the tomb is. At that time, Qiao Ping's identity will be determined.

Because I had been here yesterday, everything was familiar today. No trace of Kong Weiren or the others was found until they arrived in front of the main tomb chamber.

"Did I guess wrong? Kong Weiren and the others are not here?"

Dong Dabiao frowned and whispered to himself.

But Ye Fan said coldly: "They have been here before and saw that there are footprints here."

Pointing to a patch of sand in front of the tomb door, six footprints appeared side by side on it.

This was a very thin layer that Ye Fan deliberately sprinkled down yesterday to prevent anyone from coming in. If you don't look carefully, it would be difficult to spot.

"But since they are here, why are they missing?"

I searched the surrounding tombs, but didn't see Kong Weiren and the others at all. Could it be that they disappeared out of thin air?

Ye Fan said solemnly: "Everyone, be careful. There may be dangers we don't know about in this tomb."

As soon as he finished speaking, the stone wall beside him suddenly made a crashing sound.

"Back off."

Ye Fan hurriedly gave instructions. At the same time, he held the hiking pole tightly in his hand and stared at the stone wall coldly.

"boom."

The next moment, the stone wall was suddenly knocked open, and immediately, a figure quickly jumped out of it.

"Python? Why is there a python here?"

I saw that this python was five or six meters long, with three bulges on its belly. It was very fast. The snake, which was only as long as an arm, kept spitting and exuding a fishy smell.

"Hide in the left tomb."

Seeing the python rushing over quickly, Ye Fan didn't have time to think too much, pointed at the tomb door behind him and shouted loudly.

Several people didn't stop and ran towards the tomb quickly.

When everyone entered the tomb, Ye Fan and Shen Bao worked together to close the tomb door.

"Boom, boom, boom."

The python kept hitting the tomb door. Fortunately, the tomb door was polished with blue strips of stone and was very strong. Otherwise, it would have been smashed to pieces.

"I didn't expect that there were tomb-guarding beasts in this tomb. It was really eye-opening."

Lei Lao said excitedly, without any trace of panic.

At his age, he has already put life and death aside. If he can realize his dream in his limited life, he will be willing to die immediately.

"Mr. Lei, what is a tomb guardian beast?"

Shen Tianyin asked in confusion.

She didn't know much about the ancient tomb, not to mention that it was a noble tomb from the Liao Dynasty, and even less information had been handed down.

Mr. Lei looked at Ye Fan, "Young Ye Ye should know more about this than Mr. Lei, so let's let Xiaoyou Ye explain it."

Ye Fan smiled bitterly, knowing in his heart that the old man had probably guessed his identity.

However, as long as he doesn't nod for a day, he can only guess.

Seeing Shen Tianyin's warm gaze, Ye Fan had no choice but to explain.

"The so-called tomb-guarding beast means that in ancient times, after the death of some noble people, a beast was cultivated in the tomb and fed on the flesh and blood of the deceased, causing it to grow gradually. Because it ate the flesh and blood of living people, these beasts
