The Unorthodox Tomb Raider

"That's what the fat guy said in a pretentious way."

"But this Lu King's tomb is really strange. How could someone have set the entrance to the tomb chamber to face downwards? It almost made me fall to my death."

"That's what the fat guy complained."

How did you know this was the tomb of the Prince of Lu?

Wu Xie quickly asked.

"Well, you don't know this. Before we came here, I had already planned everything. This Lu King's Tomb is just the first battle. By the way, do you know the origin of this Lu King's Tomb?"

The fat man quickly changed the subject.

"When we came in, we passed a stone wall with inscriptions on it, which roughly explained the origin of the tomb of the Prince of Lu."

Wu Xie said.

"Hey, that's all just a lie to a greenhorn like you. What's carved on the stone wall isn't necessarily real. If you're so easily fooled, you're likely to get hurt."

"That's what the fat guy said in a pretentious way."

The fat man began his show-off journey, recounting the story of the Lu King's Tomb in great detail.

"Alright, alright, since we've met by chance, let's continue together. But you have to follow my instructions and not wander off, otherwise I won't be responsible for anything that happens to you."

Wu Xie said irritably.

……

Just as Fatty and Wu Xie were talking.

A rustling sound suddenly came from the dark tomb chamber, as if something was lingering inside.

Upon hearing this sound, Wu Xie and Fatty instantly got goosebumps all over their bodies, and even the hairs on their bodies stood on end.

"Young Master, be careful, quickly light the tinderbox."

Pan Zi's voice came from the upper right.

Wu Xie is just naive, not stupid.

Upon hearing Panzi's words, he quickly took out a tinderbox from his pants pocket and lit it.

The dimly lit tomb was instantly illuminated, and everyone could clearly see the creature making the rustling sound.

"Fatty, you really have a bad constitution. We've been here for a while and there haven't been any corpse beetles, but as soon as you came over, a swarm of corpse beetles came."

Wu Xie said helplessly.

Corpse beetles surged toward Fang Yun and his group from all directions. Pan Zi, seeing the situation was not right, leaped down.

Light the two tinderboxes in your hand.

The corpse beetles only scattered slightly when they saw the tinderbox; they were not particularly afraid.

This situation made Pan Zixin and the others feel very uneasy.

"Be careful, don't give the corpse beetles any chance. Although they won't kill you immediately, it will hurt a lot if you get bitten."

Pan Zi quickly replied.

Unfortunately, the tinderboxes in everyone's hands were not enough to ward off the horde of corpse beetles.

Before long, the group of corpse beetles had completely surrounded Fang Yun and his party.

Everyone was in a state of panic.

……

Fang Yun stood in the middle, strolling leisurely.

Fang Yun, who possesses the bloodline of the Qilin, is not afraid of this tiny corpse beetle at all. Normally, Fang Yun would not expose his Qilin bloodline.

Just like in the tomb chamber with the cauldron before.

Fang Yun only reveals a trace of his Qilin bloodline when faced with a situation that is difficult to resolve.

This aura alone is enough to repel most living beings.

The reason Fang Yun hadn't used the Qilin bloodline yet was naturally because he wanted to find the Corpse Beetle King.

The probability of encountering the Corpse Beetle King under these circumstances is much higher than before in the cave.

Fang Yun was trying to use the crowd as bait to lure out a corpse beetle king.

……

"Damn it, Brother Fang Yun, is there any way to deal with this? There are more and more corpse beetles."

Pan Zi quickly asked.

Judging from the situation, Fang Yun believed that the Corpse Beetle King had probably not appeared.

After all, even using three people as bait failed to lure the Corpse Beetle King.

Fang Yun concluded that there was definitely no Corpse Beetle King among this group of corpse beetles.

I was just thinking of using the Qilin bloodline on 590.

Zhang Qi suddenly jumped out from above and slashed his own palm with his ancient sword.

A few drops of blood dripped onto everyone's bodies.

The group of corpse beetles seemed to have encountered something terrifying, and hurriedly avoided the crowd.

"Let's take this opportunity and leave quickly."

Pan Zi quickly replied.

Pan Zi then leaped up onto the passageway he had come down from earlier.

They pulled everyone away from the tomb chamber as quickly as possible.

“I’ve been through this passage before. There are countless forks in it. When I came in, I heard some noise behind me. Going back the way we came is not an option. We have to take another passage. Everyone, follow me and be careful.”

"hiss."

Pan Zi cried out in pain.

"Panzi, what's wrong?"

Wu Xie quickly asked.

"It's alright, let's get out of the passage first."

Despite the pain, Pan Zi led everyone away from the passage.

“He was injured by a corpse beetle on his thigh. One of the corpse beetles has already burrowed inside. Please hold it down for me for a moment so I can get it out.”

Zhang Qi said.

For a moment, no one had any choice but to obey Zhang Qi's words.

Zhang Qi pinched two fingers together, and a corpse beetle was taken out.

"This corpse beetle isn't poisonous; just treat the wound with some anti-inflammatory medicine."

Chapter 237 Monster! The Appearance of the Little Hand!

Wu Xie breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this; it was best that Pan Zi was alright.

Wu Xie quickly took out anti-inflammatory medicine and gauze from his backpack and bandaged Pan Zi's wound.

"Panzi, did you see Uncle San when we got separated? We've been wandering around for so long and haven't seen him anywhere."

Wu Xie asked.

"When we got separated from the Seven Star Coffin, I had already separated from my third uncle. Along the way, I stumbled and took many detours, but most of the time I walked through the tunnels that others had dug before."

"In the tomb raiding industry, if predecessors have left behind tunnels, walking through them will definitely improve safety. However, the tunnels in this tomb are quite peculiar, lying haphazardly, and it's unclear where the destination is."

Pan Zi said, enduring the pain.

"It's alright. Uncle San must be more familiar with the structure of the ancient tomb than we are. You rest for a bit and we'll continue on our way."

Wu Xie comforted himself and Pan Zi.

"So, are you guys also here looking for the Ghost Seal?"

The fat man suddenly spoke.

"Ghost Seal? What is a Ghost Seal?"

Wu Xie was somewhat puzzled.

"Never mind, since you don't know, I don't need to explain it to you anymore."

The fat man waved his hand.

"Speaking of which, why are there so many corpse beetles in this tomb? I wouldn't find it strange to see those corpse beetles on the outside, but this is inside the tomb."

Wu Xie asked.

"It's not strange that these things are here. There may be other secrets in this ancient tomb. Judging from the behavior of these corpse beetles, they may be guarding something important."

Zhang Qi said.

"By the way, Panzi, did you notice anything along the way?"
