Seeing that Lin Yi gave those pills to Xiaoke, Elder Yu gritted his teeth in anger, but he couldn't say anything. With a hmph, he left the room, ready to go to the next one.
Xiaoke happily put away the things Lin Yi gave her and happily followed Lin Yi out of the room, heading to another room not far away.
Old Hei opened the door, and Elder Yu walked in first. This was a library, with bookshelves all around, filled with all sorts of books. Lin Yi walked in and glanced at it. Other than medical books, there were many books on botany, evidently kept for researching herbs.
Seeing that it was a study, Elder Yu's face lit up with excitement. The medical notes he was looking for should be here.
Old Hei already got what he wanted, and these rooms were just accompanying someone else. What he wanted to know the most now was how to get out of this tomb. The path from before was definitely not working- climbing out from the pit was not realistic at all. Although it wasn't a long distance in a straight line, it was full of twists and turns, and the walls were terrifyingly slippery. It was impossible to get up without specialized tools.
He could only focus on the other exits, but would they be easy to find? He could only place his hopes on Xiaoke and Lin Yi- out of everyone here, only the two of them were strong, and he had some experience as well. Elder Yu was as timid as a mouse and arrogant, so there was no way he could place his hopes on him.
Elder Yu's eyes scanned all the bookshelves as soon as he entered, but there were just too many books in the room, so many that it was shocking. Even if there weren't tens of thousands of books, there were at least a few thousand, densely packed on the shelves. Elder Yu felt like he was getting dizzy from the sheer number of books.
Looking at the medical books, Elder Yu frowned. How long would it take to find them?
"Come, look with me! If we find them, I'll let you make a copy! " Elder Yu thought about it and said to Lin Yi. Two people looking together was better than one person. He could only promise some benefits to Lin Yi, otherwise he wouldn't have the motivation. But, Elder Yu didn't understand- what did Lin Yi want the medical notes for?
He was just a thief, why would he want something like that? There were so many medical books in this room, and he didn't want them, why did he want the medical notes? Wasn't he going against him?
Lin Yi wasn't in a rush to look through the bookshelves. Medical notes were different from medical books, after all. It was more of a diary, and it usually wrote down what patients were treated today, and what patients were treated tomorrow. It was a personal item, and it shouldn't be placed in the library.
"I don't think so, don't bother looking." Lin Yi said faintly. "These are all medical books, and personal belongings like medical notes should be placed together with Zhang Liju's other personal belongings. If I'm not mistaken, it should be in the last stone room."
"Oh? Then let's go to the last room first! " Elder Yu hesitated, but he felt that Lin Yi's words made sense. He nodded and said, "Yes, Elder Yu.
The others didn't have much interest in these ancient books. These medical books were precious, and many of them didn't exist in the world anymore, but Lin Yi didn't care about them. Old Lin's library was even bigger than this place, and there were more books. Old Lin basically had everything here!
Lin Yi was the first to leave the library, so he went to the next door first, and this was the last door in the hallway. At least, it was the last door within a hundred meters. In front of him, there was nothing on both sides of the wall, but the light from the flashlight was limited, so he couldn't see clearly.
However, Lin Yi didn't open the door hastily, because Lin Yi was in front of the last door, and the jade sent a faint warning signal. When Lin Yi wanted to open the door, the warning signal got stronger and stronger.
And so, Lin Yi didn't make a move and just stood there, waiting for Elder Yu to come.
"Why aren't you going in?" Elder Yu paused.
"Waiting for you, in case someone as petty as you thinks that I'm taking everything for myself." Lin Yi said faintly.
"Hmph, you want to copy the medical notes, so you're trying to please me, right?" Elder Yu hmphed coldly and said proudly. With that, he pushed the stone door open and walked in with big steps.
But when Elder Yu walked in, what followed was a cry of pain, "My eyes! My eyes, it's poison in the stone room! "
Old Hei, who was standing at the door and wanted to go in, shivered. This tomb was really dangerous. There was no danger before, and he thought that everything would be fine, but now there was danger again. Even Elder Yu was injured?
"Male thief, you little brat, you want to trick me? Let me be the cannon fodder first!" Elder Yu roared and rushed out of the stone room. His eyes were wide open, but his left eye was dull and lifeless. Evidently, there was something wrong with it. Only his right eye was normal!
Lin Yi, who was standing at the door, had a cold smile on his face. You're the one who's being tricked! But what made Lin Yi feel regretful was that Elder Yu only lost one eye, not both. This was a bit of a waste. It was painful for Elder Yu, but it wouldn't affect their strength much in a fight!
"I tricked you? Are you kidding me? You went in yourself, how am I tricking you? Don't tell me I'm the one who created this tomb? " Lin Yi hmphed coldly, "I've reminded everyone before, there should be danger in here. Who can you blame for being careless?"
"I …" Elder Yu was a bit pissed. Yeah, who could he blame for being careless? Lin Yi did say that there should be danger in the main tomb, but the treasure rooms didn't seem to be dangerous at all, so Elder Yu lowered his guard!
"Elder Yu, your eyes … Inside …" Old Hei asked, concerned.
"There's poison in here, if I didn't react fast enough, my eyes would've been ruined!" Elder Yu said furiously.
"Serves you right, every time you enter the stone room, you're always trying to get in first, as if you're afraid people will steal your stuff." Lin Yi said mockingly, "Are you going in or not?"
