Chapter 24 Magical Powerhouse
As soon as these words were said, everyone's faces were a little uneasy. I saw that it would inevitably lead to conflicts if this continued, so I hurriedly said, "Our identity is not important. What is important is that this action is very valuable to us, so I hope you don't make things difficult for us, and don't make any noise everywhere after you go out."
The shipowner sneered and said, "Hmph, it's valuable? What kind of glorious things can steal a tomb? Besides, I'm a decade old, how can I make things difficult for you? I'm afraid you have many people and many powerful people, and my old bones may be silenced by you at any time."
Jinhu suddenly picked up the shotgun and cursed angrily: "Old guy, you're tired of living! Believe it or not, I'll send you to the West now."
Professor Wu hurriedly grabbed Jinhu and said to the ship owner: "We are all serious people and will never harm you. We are just afraid that it will be unfavorable for us to tell us about the matter here after you go out. This way, you can give me a condition and I will try my best to satisfy you."
The shipowner immediately said seriously: "This is what you said. I want to enter the ancient tomb with you. As long as there is any good thing, you can get half of it. Just this condition, you can do it!"
When I heard that this old guy was sure to be able to take us, I seemed to be helpless if I didn't agree.
Fortunately, our purpose this time is not to be the burial objects in the tomb, so it would be fine if he asked him to take a few items. Besides, he even took the goods and even sued him for the letter of fame, so he would not dare to talk nonsense if he went out.
Then Professor Wu agreed: "The deal is completed, but you have to make sure that you must not talk nonsense after you go out. You must obey my command during this period."
When the ship owner heard this, he couldn't stop smiling and said confidently: "From now on, we will be grasshoppers on a rope, so why don't we listen to you?"
After such a fuss, everyone was not in great mood to clean up. They simply carried the things and headed towards the jungle.
When I arrived at the place where the landslide collapsed yesterday, the secret passage was soft and I could step on the air with just one foot.
I walked along the secret passage and found a small gap a few hundred meters away.
This is the place where the landslide was more serious yesterday. If you lean down, you can at least accommodate two people. Everyone's mood has been slightly relieved. As long as you can still get into the tunnel, you will not be afraid of having no way to go.
Thinking of the thrilling scene yesterday, I suggested to Professor Wu: "The landslide yesterday almost wiped out everyone. I think we will leave Xiaoqian and Awei on it this time. If there is anything, it's better to have a response."
Unexpectedly, Professor Wu flatly refused and said, "How can this be done? Who will take care of me if Xiaoqian stays on it? Besides, I'm even more worried about her being on it. Who knows if there will be any accidents?"
I was about to say that it was more dangerous to let Xiaoqian, a girl, go down a place like this, but suddenly a roar came from the surroundings, which sounded like a large machine was starting.
I thought to myself that there was no one else on the island, where did the sound of the machine come from?
Then he heard Siyan exclaiming from beside him: "Red-haired beast!"
Everyone was shocked and looked at us in the distance, and there were indeed a large number of red-haired beasts who were dying towards us with fierce steps, with their paces neatly as if they were trained troops.
Professor Wu and the others hurriedly started to drill into the secret passage, but I thought carefully that no matter where I hide, I might not be safe. Perhaps only Qin Xuanling could have a way to help everyone get through this disaster.
As a result, he was stunned and heard the golden tiger shouting below: "You guys jump down quickly, I'm going to throw explosives. I'll blow the entrance and see how they'll come down!"
Qin Xuanling and I were immediately amazed and crying. I said to him: "Master Hu, I have no objection if you want to be Dong Cunrui, but you also have to think about the structure of the secret passage so brittle. If you blow this up, can you ensure that there will be no gaps in other places? Let's talk about how we came out in the future? Have you ever had any brains?"
Jin Hu said: "You two come down first and then talk about it. The future matters will be resolved later. If you don't come down again, these red-haired monsters will have a human meat meal tonight!"
Qin Xuanling and I had to jump out of our secret thoughts, and then Jinhu took out the lighter, lit the fuse with a shaking hand.
I cursed: "Fuck, you are fucking sick. If you want to learn from the martyr, let us run away."
Before we could run a few steps, the back exploded with a bang, and the secret passage suddenly became invisible.
Fortunately, the explosives are not very powerful, and the shock waves only destroyed the soil structure near the secret passage, and we were all unscathed.
I vomited for a long time before I spitting out the mud in my mouth. The dust everywhere made people breathless. I was so angry that I scolded Jin Hu, my grandson, for being confused.
However, this explosion did block the connection between the secret passage and the outside. You could vaguely hear the red-haired beasts outside roaring, but they could no longer pose a threat to us.
It’s really not a cover for so many red-haired beasts to appear together. If they followed up with the tunnel just now, everyone would probably turn into sacrifices in the tomb.
Professor Wu and his friends, who had already been away, heard the explosion and turned back. They felt relieved when they saw that the three of us were intact.
The secret passage became very messy because of the rain. I reminded everyone to pay attention to the road beneath their feet and not to accidentally trip up and eat shit.
Then Jinhu joked: "This place is not as good as outside. If you fall into a dog and eat shit, you may win the jackpot!"
I know he was talking about skulls, and the last time he entered the secret passage was everywhere.
But after a closer look, I found that the skull... seemed to be gone!
What's going on? I quickly walked to the front with a strong light flashlight, wanting to see if it's the same as here.
However, the more you go inside, the cleaner the ground is. Not to mention the skull, you can't even see a piece of mud.
However, there are many vertical strips on the ground, as if someone had just swept over it with a broom.
I told Professor Wu about the situation in front of me. Qin Xuanling suddenly interrupted when he listened beside me, "We are afraid we are in big trouble again..."
When I saw that there were still many traces of this, I hurriedly asked him what was going on.
Qin Xuanling said: "It is said that at the bottom of the coastal island, there is a kind of shameless monster called the Earth Kirin. It has huge body and developed limbs, and its fluff is like a hard thorn. No living things encountered in front of us will be left. This secret passage is well-connected. If there is a Earth Kirin, then we will be in danger."
Four-eyed eyes said: "How is this possible? How can large animals underground cannot move at all, so how can they survive?"
Qin Xuanling asked back: "The land kirins are everywhere, but are there few strange things we encounter in this place?"
This is indeed not a joke, our current situation is not optimistic.
Everyone walked for a while with trepidation, and the secret passage became more and more complicated. Soon we arrived at the place where we first collapsed yesterday.
Because of the collapse, we had to withdraw a few steps and walk into another fork.
As we walked, the secret passage began to extend downwards, and the distance between the two sides became more and more spacious.
Immediately afterwards, a square underground space suddenly appeared in front of us, with white human bones everywhere.
Everyone was shocked to see this scene. There were a lot of bones here, which was more than ten times more than the skulls we saw when we first entered the secret passage.
At the same time, I also saw a lot of rusty weapons scattered on the ground, some of which had become incomplete due to oxidation, and turned into a pile of scrap copper and iron.
Professor Wu picked up a bronze sword on the ground and suddenly stood there. Xiaoqian and I hurriedly supported him and asked him what he found?
Professor Wu was silent for a long time and said in a mute manner: "These...these weapons were all from the Qin and Han Dynasties. The patterns and pictures on them were decorated in an ancient tomb in Qi County, Shaanxi Province."
I said excitedly, "That is to say, we are in the right place? Then why do you still have this expression?"
At this time, Qin Xuanling, who was behind me, took over the conversation and said, "I guess the professor must have recognized that these weapons are all from the Mo family army, so he has such a reaction."
I thought to myself, Mo Family Army? What kind of organization is this? Is there any connection with Guigu Sect or Xu Fu?
Before Qin Xuanling could explain to us, the four eyes on the other end of the basement suddenly shouted, "Professor, come here quickly, have a major discovery!"
We hurriedly approached, and saw Siyan and Han Sen holding a delicate jade monument, which was engraved with small seals: "The magical machine is important, don't get close to anyone."
