The Unorthodox Tomb Raider

Those (Li Nuo Zhao) are all impeccable, without a single flaw. Such finished products are simply priceless in the world.

The shop was always filled with the fragrance of sandalwood, a scent that was neither too strong nor too weak, just right, making people feel relaxed and at ease.

A box sits on a table made of sandalwood.

Anyone with a discerning eye would be astonished upon seeing this box.

Because this box was actually made of amethyst.

Its appearance is completely natural.

It looks like it was taken from a piece of purple water.

If this amethyst box were put up for auction, it would definitely cause a huge uproar.

It has caused countless people to fight tooth and nail for it.

The man beside him seemed to completely disregard the amethyst box.

He was fiddling with a bronze-style object in his hand.

"I didn't expect it to be this. It seems I'll have to make use of Wu Xie later."

The man looked into the distance.

Chapter 248 The Disappointing Fatty! Let's Go to the Antique Shop!

"Third Uncle, where are we? Have we been blown up?"

Wu Xie asked.

"You brat, all you ever think about is death. Can't you say something auspicious? This is a hotel. Fang Yun and Zhang Qi were the ones who rescued us that day, but they left in a hurry after rescuing us. At that time, you and Pan Zi were still unconscious."

"Then why do you look so angry, Third Uncle?"

Wu Xie asked.

"That fatso casually handed me this gold-inlaid silk. I took it out for testing, and the gold content was extremely high. It was clearly a level that only modern technology could achieve. It wasn't even a fake. This guy tricked me."

Uncle Wu said angrily.

"That shouldn't be the case. With your discerning eye, Uncle, this fake shouldn't be able to escape your notice. It's impossible for someone to be fooled so easily."

Wu Xie quickly replied.

“You brat, how dare you say that? If it weren’t for the fact that you and Panzi were so badly injured, I wouldn’t have even had time to look at this gold-embroidered silk before rushing you back to the hospital for treatment. Fortunately, the treatment was timely, and your lives were saved. I was worried that what we did 600 years ago would be discovered, so I brought you to stay at the hotel.”

"After all, the injuries you two sustained were very serious; no one would believe it was just a fight."

Uncle Wu sighed.

"Just who is this fat man? Why does he know so much about the Lu King's tomb?"

“This time we might have been tricked. Think about the text descriptions you saw in the tomb. You could only understand those two paragraphs, and you couldn’t understand the rest at all. Don’t you think that’s very strange? But it’s no use talking about this now. After all, that ancient tomb has been burned to the ground, and it’s impossible to go back.”

Uncle Wu said.

"We didn't cause any major disaster this time, did we? The explosives were just too powerful. After being knocked unconscious, I had no idea what happened. Panzi and I were unconscious here for a few days."

Wu Xie quickly asked.

"Sigh, you've been unconscious for seven days and seven nights since you came out of that ancient tomb. Fortunately, neither of you has any hidden injuries, and there were no abnormalities in your body after you were bitten by the corpse beetle. That's enough. You're lucky to have survived this trip to the ancient tomb."

Uncle Wu sighed.

"This is just too bizarre. I still can't believe what happened."

Wu Xie said.

"Ring ring ring!"

"Hey, it's me."

"What? Now? Okay, okay, let Wu Xie go, no problem, no problem, he's already awake."

"Let's talk when we meet, okay?"

Uncle Wu's face, which had been twisted into a pretzel with worry, completely relaxed.

"Third Uncle, who called and is looking for me?"

Wu Xie asked.

"It's Fang Yun. He said he has something he wants you to see and asks you to come over now. You've been lying in bed for so long, it's time to get out and stretch your muscles. Lying in bed like this for a long time is very bad for your joints."

Uncle Wu said with a smile.

"Why are you so happy when Fang Yun called? It's just something to look at. Why are you so excited? Just now you were telling me that the fat guy tricked you and you were furious."

Wu Xie asked, puzzled.

"You brat, what do you know? You've seen Fang Yun's methods before. You didn't dare to look up that day, but I still secretly glanced at you. Do you remember Zhang Qi kneeling in front of the coffin that day, muttering something under his breath?"

Uncle Wu asked.

"You mean that one? Of course I remember it, I remember it all too clearly. That coffin was absolutely bizarre. I dare say it was the most bizarre coffin I've ever seen in my life. But what does Fang Yun have to do with it? Could it be..."

Wu Xie seemed to have thought of something.

“That’s right, you’re absolutely right. When I glanced up, I saw Fang Yun place his hand on the coffin lid, and the coffin instantly calmed down. Even the black smoke quickly retreated back into the coffin. Think about it for a moment. Someone with such formidable strength, what in the ancient tomb could he not take? It’s just a matter of whether he would even want it.”

Uncle Wu said.

"If I'm not mistaken, Fang Yun has something he brought out of the tomb that he wants me to see."

Wu Xie quickly replied.

"Don't embarrass the Wu family this time. Consider what happened in the ancient tomb as your first experience, but don't do it again. This time, make sure you take his things with you. After all, he is our savior. Without him, we would probably have fallen to the ground under that shockwave and been devoured by the corpse beetles."

Uncle Wu instructed.

The more Uncle Wu said this, the more curious Wu Xie became.

Reflecting on what Uncle Wu said, every word made sense; only someone with such strength could achieve that.

They could definitely take away some rare treasures when they weren't looking.

Moreover, this time it was Wu Sanshu who needed Fang Yun's help, so if Fang Yun took it, that was his own skill.

However, Wu Xie was even more curious about Fang Yun's identity.

Before Wu Xie left, his third uncle insisted on stuffing a wad of money into his hand.

Tell him to get himself a nice set of clothes and bring some nutritional supplements with him.

He also asked Wu Xie to take some of his treasured little trinkets to Fang Yun.

That's a rare item, very old, and Uncle Wu has always treasured it.

Wu Xie listened to his third uncle and went outside to tidy himself up.

I also brought some nutritional supplements.

And so they headed to the antique shop owned by Fang Yun.

……

"Sigh, it still hurts a little to give that thing to Fang Yun, but it doesn't matter. Since Fang Yun sent Wu Xie over, it must have been something taken from the tomb. Compared to that, my little gadget is nothing. I hope Wu Xie can get something this time!"

Uncle Wu said with a pained expression.

Although Wu Xie has just woken up, he has been resting for the past few days.

He just looks a little weak, but there's nothing else seriously wrong.

This is Wu Xie's second visit to Fang Yun's antique shop.

Wu Xie himself owns an antique shop, so he naturally didn't pay much attention to Fang Yun's antique shop.

Wu Xie felt that the layout of Fang Yun's antique shop should be roughly the same as his own.

Chapter 249 Another Set! The Serpent-Eyebrowed Bronze Fish!

"Clang clang clang!"

"The door isn't locked, just come in."

Wu Xie felt as if he were bathed in a gentle breeze upon hearing the voice.

As I pushed open the door, I smelled a faint fragrance.

This time, Wu Xie finally took a good look at the antique shop opened by Fang Yun.

The antique shop was neatly and cleanly decorated.

The funerary objects displayed on the cabinet were spotless.

All the wooden items in this room are made of sandalwood.

Following the scent, Wu Xie saw a small incense burner on the table.

Wu Xie sniffed carefully and confirmed that it was the scent of agarwood.

Wu Xie knew that agarwood was a precious spice, as valuable as gold.

Moreover, judging from the fragrance, it must be top-quality agarwood.
