The Unorthodox Tomb Raider

Without thinking much, he reached out and touched the screen.

The arm passed right through the meteorite and disappeared.

"It's pretty impressive, like the Corpse Cave space."

Fang Yun continued walking, sighed, and then followed Huo San Niang into the meteorite copper space.

My vision went black for a moment, then it came back to light.

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

After scanning the room, Zhang Qishan and the others had already turned the lights back on.

The scene inside the cave tomb was unchanged, exactly the same as before.

Just as Fang Yun was about to point out that there was something wrong with the Qilin relief, the group suddenly became chaotic again.

"Damn, is it so hard to say something?"

Cursing inwardly, Fang Yun looked toward the source of the commotion.

"boom!"

"There's a ghost!"

"Run! There's a ghost ahead!"

He saw several Zhang family guards and Huo family members fall to the ground, each one looking like they had lost their souls, pointing at the empty stone platform and shouting in terror.

"What's the panic? There's no ghost here! Everyone, stand in line!"

Zhang, the adjutant, turned cold and shouted at the crowd.

Not only Zhang the adjutant, but even Huo Sanniang and Zhang Qishan didn't look too good.

The subordinates they brought were all trustworthy confidants.

Although not everyone has been to a tomb before, they were informed beforehand that if they saw anything in the tomb, they should not panic, as there was a leader to hold them off.

It's fortunate that everyone who went down into the tomb this time can be considered one of our own.

If the people from Half-Li and Water Leviathan saw this scene, who knows how badly they would be demoted.

Chapter 215 Preparing to Open the Coffin!

Those who fell to the ground acted as if they hadn't heard Zhang's cold shout.

After shouting in terror a few times, it suddenly scrambled to its feet and ran toward the chain bridge, as if trying to leave the main burial chamber.

"Oh!"

During the escape, several people lost their footing due to the high speed and fell into the lake below the chain bridge.

A muffled thud and a splash appeared, then the lake swallowed it up without a sound.

"Master Buddha, what should we do?"

Seeing the panicked look on these people's faces, Qi Tiezui also panicked.

An old miner once said that Riku himself would encounter unclean things when he went down into the tomb, and that he would encounter exactly what he feared.

At first he didn't believe it, but now he really does.

He had seen similar situations in previous years, mostly caused by things in the tomb that made people see illusions.

With his small frame, he's no match for those Huo family women. He'd better be careful and keep his life!

"Let's go and find out what's going on!"

Zhang Qishan responded with a stern face and immediately walked towards the iron chain bridge, preparing to catch up with his personal guards.

No matter what, those people had fought alongside him on the battlefield, and he couldn't possibly abandon his soldiers.

Moreover, he also wanted to ask those personal guards what they had actually seen.

Perhaps it will be helpful for the road ahead.

Seeing Zhang Qishan walk back, the others had no choice but to follow.

Fang Yun walked at the back, cursing inwardly.

This has really been a rollercoaster ride; why is it so difficult to open a coffin?

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

Before long, the group returned to the entrance of the tomb chamber via the iron chain bridge.

However, those who had fled earlier had long since vanished without a trace.

"Where did they go!" Zhang, the adjutant, sighed, feeling somewhat weary.

This trip to the cemetery was more exhausting than fighting a war.

"They probably ran back into that maze; how are we supposed to find them now..."

Qi Tiezui sighed and shook his head helplessly.

They all knew how difficult that maze was.

Finding the way alone would take forever; if we had to add finding people to the equation, they might not even be able to get out.

"wrong!"

Suddenly, Huo San Niang exclaimed in surprise.

Pointing to the stone tablet in the center of the entrance hall, he said with a puzzled look:

"The contents of this stone tablet have changed!"

"Look here, Yin and Yang are two sides of the same coin, mutually containing and influencing each other. They cannot be fixed by one perspective. The only remaining question in my life is: which is Yin and which is Yang, here or in the outside world?"

After Huo Sanniang finished reading, Qi Tiezui frowned. "It really is different. Could it have some special meaning beyond the literal meaning?"

"Of course."

At this moment, Fang Yun spoke up to explain:

"Yin and Yang are two sides of the same coin, each containing the other; this likely refers to the real world and the world of meteorites."

"One cannot fixate on one aspect to define the image. Which is yin and which is yang? This means that it is impossible to distinguish which side is real or false. After all, what the consciousness perceives is real. Who can say whether the world is real or false?"

"Brother Fang, could you explain it in simpler terms?"

Upon hearing Fang Yun's words, Zhang Qishan looked helpless.

He heard Fang Yun clearly, but he didn't understand what she said; it was a bit convoluted.

"Well... it's a bit complicated."

Fang Yun stroked his chin and explained again:

"You can think of it this way: we had a dream by touching the meteorite, a very real dream. If we can wake up, then it's a dream; if we can't, then it's the real world."

"It can also be understood that the meteorite is a mustard seed space. We have entered this space, and it is unclear which space is real. This is Qingwuzi's doubt."

"But none of that matters. We're here to go into the tomb, not to solve a mystery. I think the most urgent thing is to open that coffin in the water."

"Not bad!"

Zhang Qishan was taken aback, then nodded in agreement.

The mystique surrounding meteorite copper is indeed difficult to comprehend.

However, they don't need to understand; they just need to ascertain the situation within the mine.

Take what you can carry, and destroy what you can't. As long as you don't please Riku, then this trip is a success.

"Yes, let's hurry back and check on that bronze coffin!"

Qi Tiezui also got excited.

That was Qingwuzi's coffin!

So, after discussing it, the group went back to the main tomb chamber via the iron chain bridge.

As for those who are suspected of being lost in the illusion, they can only wait.

If we can save them later, then we will; if we can't... then we'll just have to let it go.

After all, compared to the major events that could potentially destabilize the nation, a few lives are not a significant matter.

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

Upon returning to the platform, Zhang Qishan immediately looked towards the fluorescent lake.

After glancing at it, Zhang Qishan let out a breath.

"The bronze coffin is still there, but I don't know how it differs from the one outside the meteorite space. Perhaps it's just a fake."

Huo Sanniang crossed her arms and chuckled softly.

"Whether it's fake or not, we'll know once we fish it out and take a look."

"Why don't you let me go down and give it a try?"

“No!” Zhang Qishan’s expression changed, and he shook his head, saying, “Although the Huo family’s Upside-Down Immortal can reach for objects by hanging down, there’s something wrong with this water. We absolutely cannot take the risk.”

At this moment, Fang Yun sighed and said what he had been holding back for so long.
