I Did Many Dangerous Things After Knowing When I Would Die Chapter 23
Advertisement
"Stop! Stop!
"This tomb cannot be disturbed!
"Once it is, the entire village will suffer its wrath!"
In the distance, an old man with a white beard and hair stumbled over.
His body was stooped and his face was full of wrinkles, signs of old age. When he spoke, he coughed repeatedly and staggered as he walked. He looked like he was in danger of falling over at any moment.
The captain looked at the anxious, pitiful figure of the old man and hurriedly asked his subordinates to assist the elder.
At the same time, he turned toward his team member who reported the situation, and inquired about the old man's identity.
The man hurriedly composed himself and reported.
"Captain, according to the villagers, this old man is the chief of a nearby village.
"He is almost 80 years old.
"He was among the first group of people who settled here 60 years ago.
"Everyone in the village said that only the old chief knows about the secrets under the tomb..."
The old chief had already arrived towards the captain when the report was given.
He was thin and frail, wearing only a thin, tattered shirt with only one shoe on his foot.
It was obvious that he had rushed here in a hurry.
Once he saw the captain of the Criminal Investigation Division, the old village chief reached out and grasped his hand tightly. He coughed and opened his mouth, his lips quivering.
"Young man... cough, cough, cough... This tomb... can't be moved!
"There's something alive under the tomb. It's not dead yet!
"It's still here!"
"I've been in this place for 60 years. In these 60 years, I've been coming to this tomb once every year, and I can still feel its aura.
"You can't let him out. Once he is freed, the entire village will be in huge trouble.
"Even... Even you would be in trouble!"
The old man shouted at the top of his lungs.
His voice was hoarse, and he stared at the captain with an uneasy, desperate gaze.

The captain of the Criminal Investigation Division looked at the old man's expression. He could clearly feel that the old man was not lying.
He knew that undeniably, there was something going on in this cemetery.
However, he was curious. If the old chief knew that there was something peculiar about this cemetery, why hadn't he stopped John and his team when they came here in the first place?
Why did he suddenly decide to show himself only now?
The captain was very puzzled.
The netizens in the livestream also fixed their attention on the old village chief who had suddenly appeared. Everyone was wondering the same thing.
'Why did you have to come out this time?'
'Wasn't this reminder a little too late?'
As the netizens voiced their doubts in the comments section, the captain turned to look at the old man.
"Hey, mister, It's not that I don't believe you, but why didn't you stop John and his team members when they came here previously?
"And the explorer from the day before yesterday, Jack London. Why didn't you help him when he was in trouble?"
The captain asked dubiously.
Along with his question, hundreds of thousands of pairs of eyes in the livestream also turned to look at the old village chief.
However, what everyone didn't expect was that the old village chief would be as clueless as they were.
"What Jack London?
"What exploration team?
"Young man, what are you talking about?
"Could it be that someone else came here before today?
"Aren't you... the first group of outsiders to enter this place?"
The old village chief asked in horror.
From his expression, it was obvious that every question he asked was earnest, and he was not trying to hide anything.
When the captain of the Criminal Investigation Division and the audience in the stream saw the old village chief's earnest expression, they immediately exploded.
"F*ck! What's going on? This old village chief doesn't even know about the existence of the exploration team?"
"It can't be, right? How could he not know? The news of Jack's death spread like wildfire, and it's the country's hottest topic at the moment!"

"How could it be? Could it be that... this old village chief doesn't even know about the news of someone getting hurt by a ghost in this cemetery?"
"I know! Could it be that the villagers kept it from the old village chief? He's old, after all, and he doesn't know how to surf the internet. He won't be able to understand the latest news, so it's completely logical."
The viewers discussed with each other enthusiastically.
Some of them were suspicious of this old man, and some were speculating on different reasons.
The captain had also thought of this possibility, and couldn't help but ask, "Old man, didn't you know that two expedition team members were killed in this cemetery?"
After asking, the captain briefly told him what had happened.
After listening to the captain's words, the old village chief's face gradually changed from doubt to surprise, and finally to fear!
"It's him... It's the guy under the cemetery. That guy's ghostly qi actually leaked up into the cemetery!
"He's emerging... Just like 60 years ago!
"We can't dig anymore. We have to bury this place as soon as possible!
"Use more soil! Use more soil to bury it!"
The old village chief's expression was agitated as he spoke anxiously to the captain.
As the captain heard his words, he stared at the large pit in the cemetery and fell into a dilemma.
The old village chief was definitely not spewing lies.
Although the captain did not know who or what the creature the old man mentioned was, he knew instinctively that it must be terrifying.
However, John and the others were depending on them for rescue. They couldn't just close up the opening of the pit so casually. They had to think of a way to achieve their goal without inflicting more danger upon themselves. The captain was silent, stuck in his raging thoughts.
Boom!
Suddenly, the entire cemetery started to shake violently.
The tunnel under the tomb suddenly began to widen as a mass of black mist surged out into the sky.
A few members of the Criminal Investigation Division nearby were directly shoved by the gas as it rushed past them, and they flew up to two or three meters away into a pile of soil.
The captain's eyes instantly focused and he opened his mouth to order everyone to retreat.
However, before he could say anything, clattering sounds could be heard emerging from the tunnel.
Hearing this, the old village chief's expression changed drastically.
His mouth trembled as he yelled in horror.
"It's the corpse worms... They're coming out... They're coming out!"
Boom!
In the next moment, a swarm of corpse worms gushed out from the tunnel like a water fountain and scattered themselves in all directions!
The audience witnessed the entire incident and instantly shrieked, goosebumps appearing on their arms and legs.
"It's that group of bugs! It's the same group of bugs that swallowed John Jones!"
"They're here again!"
"Run!"
Comments telling them to 'Run!' filled up the entire comments section.
At the same time, even as the captain noticed this group of disgusting bugs through the light from the huge searchlight, he did not falter in the face of danger. He stretched out his hand behind him, roaring his orders.
"Flamethrowers!
"Flamethrowers in position!
"Aim at these insects, burn them to death!"
His voice reverberated through the valley.
Shortly, the entire Criminal Investigation Division's rear ran to the front. They carried flamethrowers and aimed at the entrance of the tunnel in the cemetery, blaring scorching hot flames toward the squirming worms.
The flames shed light on every team member at the scene. The glow illuminated the old village chief's face, who wore a mask of fear and shock.
His lips and hands trembled as he continuously repeated a sentence.
"He's coming out... Sixty years... It's been a whole sixty years... He's really coming out again!"
