Chapter 485: Continue to Go Deeper
Boom, boom, boom.
A dull sound of footsteps was heard beneath the abyss. Gu Sanqiu, with disheveled hair and a huge coffin on his back, had indifferent eyes and just stiffly repeated the digging work.
"Go on, go on."
A pair of eyes without any emotion, or rather, after repeated excavations and mental trauma, Gu Sanqiu no longer remembered anything except that he should dig out the bones.
Figures wearing white T-shirts passed by him one after another. Several treasure-hunting gang members wearing cloaks and masks used all their life's knowledge to make their footsteps as quiet as possible and cleared the rocks on the ground for Gu Sanqiu in front.
They had seen it several times. They didn't know if it was because his physical strength was about to run out, or for some other reason, but the man carrying the coffin had fallen to the ground several times, and his whole body was crushed by the huge and heavy coffin.
But he was able to stand up every time, with a divine eye shining with golden light beside him to guide him, as if he was the only hope in loneliness.
From that time on, members of the treasure-stealing group followed Gu Sanqiu, clearing the rocks on the road for him while ensuring that they did not touch the bones.
"Boss, this madman hasn't eaten or drunk anything for almost half a month. Why should we follow him?"
Bang!
The pawn who asked this question was slapped on the head by his boss.
"Asshole, stop calling him crazy, call him Sir, do you understand me?"
The leader of the treasure-stealing team showed admiration: "No matter what the reason is, our hands are no longer worthy of touching the bones of the heroic spirit, but he can."
"Although we are unworthy, we can still contribute our strength for this lord and for the heroes who are buried in the ground."
Even though everyone came here to make a fortune, in such a dark and relatively closed environment under the abyss, everyone's mentality is somewhat unstable.
But when they saw the man carrying the coffin moving forward, it was as if they saw the light from a lighthouse in the stormy sea.
“I hope you can keep going.”
The treasure-stealing group bowed awkwardly to Gu Sanqiu: "You are the real light."
Thin blue threads were clearly wrapped around the bodies of the treasure-stealing group members.
However, when these silk threads heard these words, they obviously paused, and then silently shrank back, allowing them to watch Gu Sanqiu go away.
Further away is an area they cannot set foot in. That is an area that has no record within the treasure-hunting group. It is extremely dangerous just to think about it.
They...don't dare to go.
The leader of the treasure-stealing group bowed deeply.
We are just here to make money. We have followed you for nearly half a month. We have done our best. I have to do my own thing.
Ever since the Abyss was closed, the deeper areas seemed to have become restricted areas. Even those well-equipped members of the Fatui were very cautious when going deep into the Abyss, for fear of losing their lives there.
They were just members of a treasure-stealing group with some crude means. They were already scared on the way to make money, so how could they dare to continue to follow this adult deeper?
But, but…
The leader of the treasure-stealing gang stomped his feet hard, then, in front of the shocked gazes of his many younger brothers, he tore off his mask, rushed over and knelt on the side of the road.
"Sir, the road ahead is dangerous. We can't continue to follow you. I hope you are well."
The leader of the treasure-stealing group gritted his teeth and said, "I will return to the ground and surrender myself soon. I hope to see you again in Liyue Harbor."
"You, please don't die!"
"When I get out and make some money, I'll definitely treat you to a drink!"
Gu Sanqiu walked past him, reached out and patted him gently on the head.
"Go and turn yourself in."
"All the heroic spirits are willing to see your future path."
"Don't do that. You'll regret it."
The leader of the treasure-stealing group stared blankly at Gu Sanqiu who was gradually going away, tears flowing uncontrollably from his eyes.
"yes!"
The member of the treasure-hunting group who came to his senses and returned to the right path kowtowed vigorously, and the younger brothers who came over couldn't stop him.
"Boss, are you really going to turn yourself in? Stealing in the Layered Abyss is a serious crime."
The younger brother also glanced at Gu Sanqiu who was walking away, and then nodded vigorously.
"Damn it, how can that gentleman be so handsome that we have to do such shady work? Just turn yourself in, brothers, let's go!"
"Xiao Liu is right. Damn it, I'll just turn myself in. It's not like I can't support myself. I've been following that master for half a month. If you let me do my old job again, you might as well kill me!"
“Go, go, go!”
…
"It can help the treasure-stealing group who value money more than anything else to return to the right path, haha."
A short-haired beauty stood in a hidden corner, playing with a jade dice in her hand, but her eyes were always on Gu Sanqiu.
"Young Master, you really impressed me."
However... no matter how impressed I am, it's time to stop now.
The short-haired beauty jumped down with the help of the hook and landed gently in front of Gu Sanqiu.
"Young Master, you should go and rest. If you continue like this, you won't be able to hold on for much longer even with your strength."
Gu Sanqiu raised his head coldly: "Who is it?"
"My name is Ye Lan. I am a special commissioner of the General Affairs Department and also a secret intelligence officer for Ningguang."
Ye Lan stretched out her hand: "You can't go on like this. The filth beneath the abyss will completely corrode you."
"No, get out of the way."
Gu Sanqiu lowered his head and took a deep breath, then raised his head again, his eyes one gold and one black, forcibly repelling the filthy power that was lingering around him.
The Eye of Legends also burst out with dazzling golden light, and not only the filth, but even Ye Lan was repelled by this force.
"Thanks for the advice, get out of the way."
Gu Sanqiu shook his shoulders, walked around Ye Lan and continued to move deeper.
"Go tell my sister I'm fine, thank you."
Ye Lan frowned as she watched Gu Sanqiu continue walking, and for a moment she was a little confused about his condition.
At least from the moment he saw the other person, Gu Sanqiu's physical condition had been deteriorating. The gravel on the roadside could trip him to the ground. It seemed that he was about to run out of energy.
But just now, the power that erupted from the opponent's eyes, which were completely immersed in gold and black, was so huge, as if he was not injured at all.
“Incredible strength and determination.”
Ye Lan jumped back onto the rock wall, and then saw Gu Sanqiu stepping into a filthy area with one foot deep and one foot shallow!
The golden light of the Eye of Legend and the black will that burst out from the soul merged together and turned into a ferocious wolf that bit towards the filthy sphere, clearing out the filth in one bite!
Bang.
Gu Sanqiu knelt weakly on the ground, but still took out a two-handed heavy sword and stabbed it into the ground, forcing himself to stand up. He walked towards the vicinity of the filthy sphere and dug out a purple-black skeleton from it.
The Eye of Legends shone with golden light, and the filth on the bones was successfully purified , and then carefully placed into the coffin by Gu Sanqiu.
The blood kept flowing.
