The Unorthodox Tomb Raider

Now that Er Yuehong hasn't come, he can only place his hopes on Fang Yun.

The veteran miners knew a lot about the ancient tomb. If something happened to one of them, they would be completely lost again and would have no choice but to keep going.

Upon hearing this, Fang Yun let out a heavy sigh and took out a small piece of cloth from his pocket.

He had prepared this last night.

"This is Qi Xue Dan and Lao Fu Ling. Soak the Qi Xue Dan in water and give it to him. Then just hold the Lao Fu Ling in his mouth."

"it is good!"

Zhang Qishan immediately took the cloth from Fang Yun's hand and took out the pills and herbs inside.

Following Fang Yun's instructions, the Qi and Blood Pill was dissolved in water and poured into the old miner's mouth.

After a few sips of the herbal decoction, the old miner's condition improved considerably. He stopped coughing, but he still looked somewhat weak and delirious, and his mind was unclear.

Seeing that the old miner was in much better condition, Zhang Qishan breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he put the old Poria cocos slices into the old miner's mouth, and looked up at Fang Yun.

"Brother Fang, is this all right?"

"It's temporary."

Fang Yun shook his head and sighed.

"He has too much blood poison grass on his body, and it has grown up to his neck. It has almost completely drained his blood and energy."

"My Qi and Blood Pill can only sustain him for half a month at most..."

He has many methods, that's true, but he's not omnipotent. There's nothing he can do about the old miner's situation.

Perhaps only professional physicians of later generations, using specialized instruments, could remove the blood poison herb that had been inside the body for so long, and would also need to supplement it with a variety of precious life-saving drugs.

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions turned serious.

We absolutely must win this round.

Ri himself is so unscrupulous in the Central Plains, taking the treasures of the Central Plains and harming the people of the Central Plains.

Such a blood feud must be repaid with revenge one day.

"Master, please arrange for two people to take care of the old man. Let's go."

After a moment of silence, Qi Tiezui patted Zhang Qishan on the shoulder without any expression.

Hearing Qi Tiezui's words, Zhang Qishan's lips curled up. "Not afraid anymore?"

"I'm scared, but I have to go through with it. I don't want my juniors to encounter something like this. This time, let's put an end to Rihito's hopes."

He replied in a deep voice.

Qi Tiezui walked straight to the giant bronze gate and looked at it, showing no sign of panic or retreat.

Seeing this, Zhang Qishan didn't delay any longer.

After discussing it with Huo Sanniang, the two decided that each family would leave two people outside the tomb to protect the old miners.

............................

Three minutes later, the team finished resting.

The group gathered in front of the tomb entrance, observing it carefully.

"The mine topographic map only goes this far; we'll have to figure out the rest of the way ourselves."

Zhang Qishan looked at the mine topography map he had obtained earlier, his expression grave.

Riku himself entered this tomb.

There are two possibilities why the terrain of the ancient tomb is not drawn on the mine's plan.

First, Ritsu himself did not fully explore the ancient tomb; second, the information about the ancient tomb was too important, so Ritsu himself did not record it on the drawings that might leak secrets.

Overall, however, the situation isn't too bad.

After all, even Ritsu himself didn't manage to take down the tomb.

Unlike Riku himself, they possess all the equipment that Riku himself had.

Moreover, their original profession was tomb raiding, and they were far superior to Riku himself in this regard.

"It's unbelievable that there's such a huge ancient gate underground."

"And this city wall, it must be at least thirty meters high, right? The people buried in this tomb must have been at least royalty or nobles."

"However, there are no obvious markings on this door, so it's impossible to tell what era it's from."

Qi Tiezui stood in front of the bronze door, his face full of surprise and doubt.

The tomb entrance was built like a city wall, indicating that the tomb's occupant must have been of extremely high status.

It's a pity that we can't identify the era of the tomb; otherwise, we could guess the approximate design and style of the mechanisms inside based on the date.

"It's certain that a great secret is hidden behind that door."

"Otherwise, Ri would not be so interested."

Fang Yun kicked the bronze door and urged:

"We don't know how much further we have to go, let's just go in!"

He started to miss the people from the Unloading Ridge faction.

When the people of the Unloading Ridge Sect go down into the tomb, there's only one word to describe it: reckless!

No matter what traps, hidden arrows, or powerful demons and zombies are inside, once you see the tomb entrance, just go for it. Anyone who delays is a coward.

Upon hearing Fang Yun's words, Zhang Qishan nodded and beckoned his men to open the door.

Huo Sanniang also brought people to lend a hand.

The two doors were very heavy, but with the help of more than a dozen people, they were pushed open in no time.

Looking into the doorway, one sees a smooth, blue brick walkway.

On both sides stand numerous ever-burning lamp holders and statues of human figures and mythical beasts.

At the end of the corridor, there is an arched stone cave without a door.

Chapter 207 The Sixty-Four Heavenly Trigrams Formation!

"There's another tomb entrance ahead!"

Qi Tiezui let out a low exclamation, a smile appearing on his face.

"Finally, we've arrived at a familiar place."

"I prefer this place to those dark and eerie mine tunnels."

"What Eighth Master said is true. Going down into tombs is just a daily routine for us."

Lieutenant Zhang chimed in, easing the tension.

After Zhang's words, the atmosphere in the group did indeed improve considerably.

The Zhang, Huo, and Qi families all started out by tomb raiding, so having a tomb nearby was a good thing for them.

"The danger may have only just begun, so never let your guard down."

Seeing everyone's relaxed demeanor, Zhang Qishan couldn't help but offer a reminder.

This ancient tomb is not something that can be taken down so easily.

If the mine tunnels connecting to the ancient tomb are so dangerous, the dangers inside the tomb must be even greater.

Otherwise, Riku himself would have already looted the entire ancient tomb.

"The Buddha is right."

Huo Sanniang's expression was solemn, and she said in a low voice, "Don't forget what Second Master said."

"When the senior members of the Red Mansion entered the ancient tomb, they were trapped for a full month, and in the end, only one person returned to the Red Mansion alive."

"That senior died of illness the same day he returned home, so he didn't leave much information about the tomb. We must be careful."

This is what Er Yuehong told them a few days ago at the Hong Mansion.

But Er Yuehong didn't know much either.

Therefore, their understanding of ancient tombs can be described as completely blank.

Fang Yun raised the corner of his mouth and walked straight to the arched doorway.

"Caution is the boat."

"Being cautious is a good thing, but there's no need to worry too much, lest we throw ourselves into chaos."

"Both the people of the Red Mansion and Ri himself have entered and exited the tomb, which means that the tomb is accessible."

"I want to see what kind of formation can trap the people of the Red Mansion for a month."

He remembered that the path ahead was a huge, intricate maze, possibly occupying the entire mine shaft.

The maze left by Qingwuzi is obviously difficult to navigate.

Difficult as it may be, he did not believe that a deadly formation could defeat him!
