Chapter 139 Fight in the tomb

 When I came to the cliff, I looked down and saw a wide river flowing straight down in the distance.

Ye Bai was a little curious. He had only seen the Yellow River with such momentum in the north.

"What kind of river is this?"

The Xiling brothers who led the way explained: "Third Master, this is Panlong River, which merges into Dianchi Lake. You see, the water at the end is Dianchi Lake."

Ye Bai looked far into the distance, and there was indeed a body of water at the end of the horizon.

Chen Yulou also said: "It is said that the Dian Kingdom originated from Dian Lake and then multiplied. It is not without reason that the Dian King buried himself at the source of Dian Lake.

Ye Bai nodded, took a brief look at the surrounding terrain, and then went down to the tomb with everyone.

The hole made by the Xieling brothers is like a winding L-shape, first vertically downward, then vertically forward.

Following the rope down to the tomb, Ye Bai heard a faint sound coming from the front not long after walking in the cave.

It seems to be a human voice.

"Wait, there's someone in front!" Ye Bai hurriedly stopped everyone.

Anyone?

Chen Yulou and others stopped immediately and heard the conversation in the distance.

However, the conversation seemed to be in Yunnan dialect, and the sound was blurry, making it difficult to hear what was being said.

"What's going on? There seems to be someone under this tomb?" Chen Yulou asked.

"Boss, I don't know. There is a hole in this tomb that we dug. Could it be that someone discovered our hole and got in?"

"This possibility cannot be ruled out."

Ye Bai turned on the flashlight and looked at the soil under his feet. There were several covered footprints that didn't look like theirs.

Chen Yulou warned: "The thieves who found our Xiling cave should not be ordinary mountain people. Take out your weapons and be careful."

After saying that, Chen Yulou and Ye Bai came to the front of the crowd and slowly led the way.

After walking a few steps, Ye Bai noticed something buried in the soil in front of him by the light of his flashlight, and quickly reached out to stop Chen Yulou.

Chen Yulou was confused, and just when he was about to ask a question, he saw Ye Bai digging out an iron clip mechanism from the soil.

This shelf is completely black, and is connected by a thick spring as big as a thumb in the middle. Below the spring are several wires hooked together, and on both sides are sharp iron teeth. The structure is quite ingenious.

Chen Yulou felt cold and cold: "The bone splitter, such a sinister thing is placed here, what is the origin of the person in it?"

The prototype of the bone-splitting trap is a trap used to capture wild beasts. It was made by a craftsman in the Qing Dynasty.

However, the power of the bone-splitting clamp is much greater than that of ordinary animal clamps, and ordinary bones can be split instantly. If someone accidentally steps on it, the feet and legs will be separated.

The craftsman saw that this thing was harmful to Tianhe, so he destroyed the drawing.

All that could be seen later were imitation bone splitting clamps, but their power was only slightly worse than the original version.

However, this thing is usually used to deal with living corpses, and I didn't expect it to be buried here.

Ye Bai put away the bone-breaking clamp and whispered to everyone: "I'm afraid there may be traps on the road behind, so be careful."

Sure enough, after walking a few steps, Ye Bai found an invisible filament buried in front of him. This filament led deeper along the robbery hole, and he didn't know what it was connected to.

Under Ye Bai's warning, everyone carefully stepped across the thin wire.

After entering the tomb, the voices of the group in front gradually became clearer.

But these people seemed to come from all over the world, with dialects from Shaanxi and Yunnan. In addition, they spoke very fast. Ye Bai and Chen Yulou looked at each other and did not understand them at all.

A clerk from Ye Mansion was from Shaanxi. He understood the general idea and said in a low voice: "Third Master, Mr. Chen is the leader. This group of people are also tomb robbers and come from Beijing."

Chen Yulou frowned and said: "Coming from Beijing? It's such a long way. Did they also get news about the tomb?"

"I don't know about this, but they also mentioned the Crescent Hotel."

Crescent Hotel?

Ye Bai's eyebrows jumped. The Crescent Hotel was naturally familiar to him. In the future, Zhang Qishan's daughter-in-law Yin Xinyue would be the eldest lady of the Crescent Hotel.

The Crescent Hotel has a mysterious origin and is quite influential in Beijing. It is said that its purchasing and shipping channels are all over the country and its official background is quite large.

As the leader of Xiling, Chen Yulou has naturally heard of the name of the Crescent Hotel. His father, Chen Mowen, received an invitation from the Crescent Hotel when he was young, but due to delays at that time, he was not able to see the legendary New Moon Hotel.

Moon Hotel.

The people here can be related to the Crescent Hotel, so they are not simple people.

However, they were the first to explore this tomb in Xiling. After all, it was the people inside who broke the rules first.

Even if the King of Heaven comes, they are the ones who removed the tomb of the Dian King.

Chen Yulou waved his hand and asked everyone to follow him. After the group had explored all the traps in the tomb, they would try to catch the turtle in the jar again.

After the noise from the front became quieter, everyone slowly followed.

When we arrived at the entrance of the corridor in front, in addition to the traps triggered by the Xieling brothers before, there were many more poisonous needles and crossbows on the ground, which seemed to have been triggered just now.

Ye Bai picked up the poisonous needles on the ground and saw that the needles were bent. Judging from the situation, these poisonous needles seemed to have hit an extremely hard armor.

The methods of these people should not be underestimated.

In this way, Ye Bai and others did not dare to get too close. They waited until the voices of the group in front completely disappeared for a while before slowly setting off.

There is a small shallow pool in the front channel, about five meters wide.

The brothers from Xieling spoke up, this was the place where the five brothers were brought down.

This beach is so long that it is basically impossible to cross it. If you are not prepared in advance, it is really easy to slip through the water.

Chen Yulou found that there were about a dozen large iron nails lined up on the wall on one side of the passage. It seemed that the group of people just stepped on the iron nails and walked against the wall.

He couldn't help but frown, these people were much more cautious than he thought.

"Let's go, let's go too."

So everyone followed the iron nails and leaned against the wall to cross the shallow water.

Passing a curved corridor, the voices in front of me became softer and softer, as if they were going further away.

A clerk from Ye Mansion was a little impatient and hurriedly followed him, just about to show his face.

"Bang!", a crisp gunshot sounded.

At the same time, Ye Bai took action instantly and pulled the guy back.

The bullet almost grazed the man's cheek and passed through, hitting the wall behind and causing a few sparks.

Ye Bai looked grim, it seemed that they had been discovered.

The clerk was breathing heavily and was still in shock. If Ye Bai hadn't pulled him just now, he might have died now.

"Thank you, Third Master, thank you, Third Master!"

Ye Bai comforted him softly and asked him to rest in the back.

After a while, a rough voice came from the opposite side: "I'm Luo Wenwu from Shandong, I wonder what kind of hero the brother opposite is?"

Shandong Luo Wenwu? Ye Bai had never heard of this name before. He looked at Chen Yulou again and saw him shaking his head.

There are many thieves in Shandong. Chen Yulou is the leader of Changsheng Mountain and has some interactions with them there.
