Ji Hao also saw it.
There were words on the tree trunk, and even after so many years, the basic outline was still there.
And it was facing them.
This might be the most vicious curse.
Whoever robs his tomb, their entire family dies.
Just ask yourself, do you still dare to make a move?
Zhou You sat down on a tree root to rest; he was genuinely exhausted, completely depleted.
Fortunately, he was a virgin, so his recovery speed was relatively fast.
If it were those who had lost their virginity, and then suffered from kidney deficiency, even ten days to half a month of rest might not be enough for them to recover.
Ji Hao was displeased, "Why are you sitting down again?"
He was annoyed and in pain, but he just wouldn't say it.
Zhou You calmly said, "Whoever robs his tomb, their entire family dies. I genuinely have a family, so I'm not going to rob it."
Ji Hao was furious, "You believe such nonsense?"
"Nonsense."
Zhou You said matter-of-factly, "My parents are old, and I came out on this trip to find medicine for them. I wouldn't do such a foolish thing; what if it's effective?"
Ji Hao spat, "I despise you."
With that, he walked straight ahead.
The big tree was powerless.
Zhou You yawned and rubbed his stomach; he was a bit hungry.
Ji Hao stood in front of the tree, his sword-wielding hand paused, and he turned to look at Zhou You, "Is this kind of thing really effective?"
Zhou You shrugged, "I don't know, but if I saw something like that, I definitely wouldn't do it."
Ji Hao was silent, then after a while, he said, "How about I bring Yao Si over? Anyway, he's a tomb raider to begin with, and I don't care if his whole family dies or not."
Zhou You thought it was reasonable, but would Yao Si come?
Ji Hao thought for a moment and then asked, "Do my master, senior brothers, and senior sisters count as my family?"
Zhou You hesitated, "Probably not? Family refers to blood relatives, right?"
Ji Hao nodded, "Then I understand."
He raised his sword again, "I'm an orphan, so I don't need to fear this curse."
Zhou You reminded him, "You yourself are also part of your family. What if after you make a move, all the curses are inflicted upon yourself? In that case, it would be a tenfold increase, wouldn't it?"
Ji Hao's pupils constricted, "Really?"
Zhou You spread his hands, "Who can explain curses clearly? It's like Ou Ye also has a curse on him, which looks quite unsettling."
Ji Hao hesitated for a moment, "Do you want to stop me? I've already spoken."
Zhou You then stood up, "Let's go, don't do anything foolish. Let's go back and eat Ju Ling Fish."
"Alright."
Ji Hao stepped out, following Zhou You, "If you hadn't persuaded me, I definitely would have chopped it down."
"Yes, yes, yes, you're the most amazing."
Zhou You yawned; if it weren't for the danger of this place, he would still want to sleep here.
Ji Hao's expression was arrogant, "This young master fears nothing in heaven or on earth. A mere curse, how could I be afraid? It's simply ridiculous."
Zhou You stood by the pond, swaying his body, then swayed a few more times.
Ji Hao frowned, "What are you doing? Are you itchy?"
Zhou You sighed, "My spiritual power is exhausted; I can't turn into a dog."
Not being able to turn into a dog also meant he couldn't do the dog paddle and couldn't dive.
Ji Hao looked at Zhou You disdainfully, "A Za Yu is just a Za Yu. Is your spiritual power that little?"
Zhou You sat on the ground and began to take off his shoes to soak his feet.
He didn't care; he wasn't in a hurry to leave anyway.
Besides, as someone in the Tuotai Realm, eighth layer, how high could his spiritual power be?
Ji Hao stood to the side, his body rigid.
Zhou You patted the ground next to him, "Xiao Ji, come sit."
Ji Hao snorted coldly, hesitated for a moment, then sat down at a distance from Zhou You and also began to soak his feet. As for his wounds, they had already begun to scab over.
The roar of the waterfall was incessant, becoming the only sound.
"Xiao Ji, how old are you?"
Zhou You made conversation.
When he had seen him from afar before, he thought the other person might be two or three hundred years old.
After all, his strength was evident.
But human eyes are the most deceptive.
Ji Hao looked at Zhou You warily, "What do you want?"
Zhou You said, "Later, I'll introduce you to a girl, so you won't be alone anymore."
Ji Hao was startled, and after a long while, he said, "My real age is actually only nineteen."
"Nineteen?"
Zhou You was surprised, "Did you say less?"
Ji Hao roared at Zhou You, "I'm a man, do you understand? Men don't need to hide their age. Do I need to lie? Ah! In your eyes, does everyone have to lie?"
Zhou You picked his ear, "I thought you were several decades old."
Ji Hao cursed, "Za Yu!"
Zhou You waved his hand, "Lower your voice, you're deafening me."
Ji Hao snorted coldly, then after a while, he said, "My situation is a bit special. Actually, I was born a long time ago. But the time I've been able to move freely, or rather, truly alive, is only nineteen years."
He propped himself up with both hands, tilting his head to look at the top of the waterfall.
Zhou You nodded, "No wonder you're so irritable. Tell me, what kind of girl do you like?"
Ji Hao's face flushed slightly, and he said somewhat shyly, "I... I haven't thought about this. I think... someone more mature would be better."
Zhou You realized, "A married woman?"
Ji Hao blushed, "That works too."
Zhou You nodded thoughtfully, "But I don't know any married women. Later, I'll have my nephew find a few for you."
Ji Hao pursed his lips and sat up straight, scratching his head. "Then... what about you?"
"Me?"
Zhou You let out a long sigh, "I have no idea. I just want to go home and marry a wife, but I haven't thought about what kind of person I'd look for."
Ji Hao chuckled, "That Ye Qingyou? She seems quite pretty."
Zhou You shrugged, "No interest."
As he spoke, he pointed to his heart, "I often feel that this part of me is empty, I don't feel anything for anything."
Ji Hao tilted his head, "Why is that?"
"I don't know."
Zhou You sighed, "Maybe I'm just old."
Ji Hao turned his head away, "I don't understand."
Suddenly, a sound came from behind.
Ji Hao instantly jumped up, holding his sword, ready for battle.
But the side effects of his desperate gamble had already appeared, making it impossible for him to stand normally.
Zhou You slowly put on his shoes.
Ji Hao scolded, "Za Yu, can't you be more anxious?"
Zhou You slowly said, "There's no killing intent, what's there to be afraid of?"
He was very sensitive to this point.
Ji Hao's face was full of displeasure; he was starting to dislike this guy again, he was such a slowpoke.
Two severed tree roots pushed a wooden box, and as the two looked over, the tree roots retreated.
A wooden box was left on the open ground.
The wooden box was a foot long and wide, and half a foot high.
Ji Hao narrowed his eyes, "A coffin?"
Zhou You whispered, "Is your coffin that small?"
Ji Hao still defiantly shouted, "Can't it be someone's ashes?"
Zhou You walked over and squatted in front of the wooden box.
It wasn't locked.
Presumably, it didn't matter whether it was locked or not.
He reached out and opened it, and what met his eyes was a broken sword, a rusty broken sword.
