The Unorthodox Tomb Raider

The primary objective now is to find a vessel that can guarantee the body's immortality in a short period of time.

Fang Yun had some other plans of his own.

Although he had transcended worldly affairs, Fang Yun could not conceal his anger when the Japanese invaders arrived.

……

In the following days, Zhang Qishan led the other eight sects to begin a detailed deployment plan.

This battle concerns the survival of Changsha, and the Nine Gates are now united in purpose.

The upper, middle, and lower gates are no longer distinguished.

It was actually the Nine Gates Admiral!

……

Changsha has changed dramatically, with the sound of artillery shells whistling past.

The first battle in Changsha is about to begin, and the defense line to protect Changsha has been set up.

As the Buddha gazed at the flashing explosion lights in the distance, his heart was filled with unwavering resolve.

……

"To find the dragon and divide the gold, look at the winding mountains. Each winding is a barrier. If the barrier is eight points dangerous, it will be in the shape of Yin and Yang Bagua."

The equipment is right in front of them, the perfect place to keep the two women's bodies young and put them into a deep sleep!

This was half a month after Fang Yun left Changsha with the two women.

Changsha was now a wasteland, and the Nine Gates disappeared amidst the chaos of war.

However, their story has been widely circulated among later generations.

Chapter 227 The Great Hermit Lives in the City!

In the long river of time, Fang Yun would occasionally venture into the tombs out of boredom.

On the surface, he also opened an antique collection shop, which displayed the funerary objects he had stored before the Nine Gates of that generation disappeared.

Any one of these funerary objects is priceless and immeasurable.

……

Every ten years, Fang Yun would move to a different city, adopt a different identity, and open an antique shop under a completely new identity.

However, the name of this antique shop has remained unchanged throughout the ages.

The antique shop is called 'She'.

……

2003 years.

Hangzhou.

"Hey, is this shop unattended?"

A provocative voice rang out.

"Coming, coming, what can I do for you, guest?"

Fang Yun walked out of the inner room.

If any people from that era were still alive today, they would surely be astonished to see Fang Yun's appearance.

Time can drastically change a person's appearance, but Fang Yun is no different from before; in fact, she looks even younger.

Anyone who didn't know better would think this was Fang Yun's great-grandson.

"Hey, don't you know the rules here? You've been running this shop for so long, don't you know you need to pay your protection money? Believe me or not, I'll smash all this junk in your shop to pieces!"

The man with a full beard said with dissatisfaction.

"Having just arrived in your esteemed land, I was unaware of such customs."

"Hmph, you don't know? Well, I'll show you today."

Several thugs under the bearded man's command rushed towards Fang Yun with baseball bats.

"stop!"

……

Inside an antique shop.

A young man stared at a piece of silk paper.

“Third Uncle, are you sure this is a Warring States period tomb? That era is too ancient. Besides, no one has been doing this kind of work since the previous generation.”

“Wu Xie, how could your third uncle possibly lie to you? Besides, you’ve been clamoring to explore ancient tombs since you were little, isn’t this the perfect opportunity?”

Uncle Wu took a puff of his pipe.

"Uncle understands me best. But I also know a bit about this ancient tomb. We need to find some people. With just the two of us, we probably won't even be able to find the entrance to the tomb."

Wu Xie said helplessly.

"You don't need to worry too much about the people going with you, but there are some things you need to learn and prepare quickly, such as a high-powered flashlight, rope and some portable knives, and try to get a few guns and ammunition on the black market."

"There's one more thing. There's an antique shop about 500 meters from here. You must invite him over this time. He's no ordinary person."

After finishing his sentence, Uncle hurriedly hung up the phone.

"Sigh, since Uncle San has said so, I have no choice but to go. I just don't know who this person is, that Uncle San would value him so much."

Wu Xie hurriedly left the antique shop.

……

"Where did you come from, kid? You're not even fully grown yet. Don't meddle in other people's business, or I'll beat you up too."

The bearded man said disdainfully.

"I've already called the police. If you don't leave here, none of you will escape when the police arrive."

Wu Xie shouted, feigning composure.

"Don't let me see you on this street again, or I'll cripple you."

The bearded man angrily left with his henchmen.

……

"Thank you for helping me out. Please feel free to visit if you wish."

Fang Yun said calmly.

He turned to leave.

"Wait, I have something here that I'd like you to take a look at. I wonder if you'd be interested?"

As Wu Xie spoke, he took out a piece of silk from his handbag.

Fang Yun merely glanced at it indifferently.

"Speak, who sent you to come find me, and what do you want?"

Fang Yun's tone became slightly more humane.

"It was my Uncle Wu who asked me to come here. He wants you to come with us to survey a place."

Wu Xie quickly replied.

“The Wu family, you must be a descendant of the Wu family. Since it was your third uncle who sent you to see me, I really can’t refuse this trip.”

Fang Yun took the silk paper.

……

So much time has passed that Fang Yun has become almost immune to any reaction from the outside world.

Only when I received this piece of silk did my calm heart tremble slightly.

After so many years, a clue has finally emerged: the secret to immortality lies within this piece of silk.

"If I hadn't been so careless in reading the book back then and hadn't recorded these details, I wouldn't have had to wait so long. I would have toppled this tomb myself long ago."

Fang Yun sighed inwardly.

……

"Wait for me at the door for a moment while I get ready. We'll set off immediately."

Fang Yun returned the silk paper to Wu Xie's hand and turned to walk into the house.

"This guy looks to be only a few years older than me, so why is he calling me a junior from the Wu family? Speaking of my third uncle, he actually knows a bit about him. This kid couldn't possibly have started tomb raiding at the age of ten, that's too far-fetched."

"However, since we've summoned him in Uncle's name, the task Uncle assigned is now complete. All we need to do next is prepare some necessary items."

Wu Xie muttered to himself.

……

Fang Yun quickly packed her things and felt a little reluctant to leave the store.

They took down the signboard with the character '舍' (she).
