The Unorthodox Tomb Raider

"Good heavens, it's that fatso again! Nothing good ever comes out when he's around."

Wu Xie muttered to himself.

.......

Chapter 262 The Fatty Has an Idea! Locating the Burial Site!

"I didn't expect that this expedition team, supposedly organized by the Huo family, would even bring Fatty over. But speaking of Fatty, he should be a well-known figure in the tomb raiding world. He dared to go down into the tomb of King Lu Shang all by himself. He wouldn't dare to be so audacious without some real skills."

"It seems they found Fatty after Uncle San told them, but something went wrong along the way and Uncle San lost all contact with them. That's why the Huo family came looking for me. It seems I have to follow Fang Yun closely to avoid being used by these people with ulterior motives."

Wu Xie muttered to himself.

Fatty was secretly delighted to see Wu Xie.

"I didn't expect to see you on this ship, Lao Wu. It seems that Sister Ning has quite a bit of influence to be able to invite you here."

The fat man said with a smile.

When the fat man saw that Fang Yun was also on the boat, he immediately panicked.

Fang Yun was the one who tried to kill himself in the tomb of King Lu Shang.

Moreover, the fat man believed that Fang Yun was absolutely capable of killing himself in that eerie tomb.

Therefore, in Fatty's mind, Fang Yun was someone who should absolutely not be provoked.

A very forced smile appeared on Aning's face.

Wu Xie felt that as long as Fatty was there, nothing good would happen.

Everything that happened in the tomb of King Lu Shang had left a deep impression of Fatty in Wu Xie's mind.

The fat man carried his luggage onto the ship and casually tossed it aside.

"Sister Ning, you guys have been pushing me so hard along the way, I can't take it anymore! I've suffered so much on this journey, but that's all right. I just want to know if you've finally found that place yet?"

The fat man said with a smile.

"Based on our very precise investigation, there is only one place left. If we are not mistaken, that place will be our final destination."

Ah Ning said with a hint of helplessness.

“If you’re going to do things this way, that’s really not fair. I’ve already made it clear that I don’t know any of the skills for finding dragon veins and tombs. As agreed beforehand, I’m only responsible for going down there. If you can’t find the real location of this ancient tomb, you still have to pay me, not a penny less.”

The fat man said somewhat anxiously.

"Alright, alright, I knew you wouldn't know these things. We've already arranged for very professional people to find the location of the tomb. Mr. Wu is the one who will lead us to find the tomb."

Ah Ning said with a headache.

Wu Xie was a little confused. He glanced at A Ning and then turned to look at Fang Yun.

Fang Yun nodded and then gave Wu Xie a wink.

Wu Xie had been following Fang Yun for quite some time, so he should have some sense of propriety.

He immediately understood Fang Yun's meaning.

"Isn't that a bit unfair of you? You only asked me to come with you, but now you don't even know where you are and you expect me to come out and help you find it."

Wu Xie quickly replied.

"Mr. Wu, we have no way to deal with this either. With our current technology, we can only locate the general location of the ancient tomb. As for things like the shape of the tomb's entrance, we cannot determine them with modern instruments. We must rely on the experience of tomb raiders to carry them out on-site."

Ah Ning said apologetically.

The fat man looked at Wu Xie with some confusion.

"Tomb raiding is physically demanding. Without plenty of stamina, it takes a lot of effort. Since we're at sea, we should have a good seafood meal. Do you have any fresh seafood on board? Let's bring it out to satisfy our cravings."

The fat man swallowed hard as he spoke.

After finishing his sentence, the fat man went off to find the ship's captain.

Good heavens, in no time at all, this fat man somehow managed to swindle the boatman out of the fresh fish and a jar of wine from his boat.

The crowd gathered around a large pot, which contained fresh fish.

Looking at the pot of fish, Wu Xie felt his stomach couldn't take it anymore.

No matter what, Wu Xie has always lived in a big city.

Having little experience at sea, experiencing storms, and rescuing Aning from a ghost ship, the journey was extremely physically demanding.

Previously, I would only eat some high-calorie fast food, which could only temporarily replenish my energy.

In terms of nutritional value and taste, it's naturally not as good as this pot of fish soup.

The fat man, of course, didn't hesitate and grabbed a piece of fish with his chopsticks, hurriedly stuffing it into his mouth.

The look of happiness on her face showed that the fish was indeed delicious.

Seeing this, Wu Xie quickly picked up a chopstick and began to eat heartily.

Fang Yun and Zhang Qi stood at the bow of the boat, not dining with the others.

After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, the fat man swallowed the last drop of wine from his glass.

"Judging from your appearance, you must have eaten and drunk your fill. Now that you're all satisfied, let's get down to business."

The fat man wiped his mouth and glanced in the direction Fang Yun was coming from.

"Although it's true that bad luck keeps happening in the place where this fat guy is, since he dared to enter the ancient tomb of King Lu Shang alone to raid it, he must be someone with some experience. Moreover, the people that the Huo family found were people who spent a lot of effort and money to find for this trip, so this fat guy must have his own special skills. But it doesn't matter, just treat it as a story to listen to after a good meal."

Wu Xie muttered to himself.

"I'm not bragging, but I'm a master at taking down these dangerous tombs. I've never failed. But this time we're going to the Sea Battle, and this is the first time I've ever done it. So we need to prepare our gear and make some advance arrangements in case we get flustered and lose our composure once we're inside the underwater tomb."

The fat man said seriously.

"Mr. Wang, I have a question I'd like to ask you. How confident are you that we'll succeed this time? Could you give us a heads-up so we can have a better idea of ​​what to expect?"

Ah Ning said.

The fat man habitually looked towards Fang Yun's location, and seeing that Fang Yun hadn't come, he continued speaking.

"Based on my experience, it's really hard to say this time. First of all, the location of this sea monster is very difficult to determine. Secondly, how to get into this sea monster is also a very important issue. Finally, I don't really know what kind of creatures are in this sea monster. If there are any particularly troublesome zombies, the risk will naturally be higher."

Chapter 263: Instructions! Go into business!

Speaking of zongzi, Wu Xie suddenly remembered what had happened that day, so he gave them to everyone.

"If such a thing really exists, then we're in real trouble. According to what you said, these sea monkeys can easily kill three or four adults. If the place we're going to is the sea monkeys' home, then we're in real danger. Miss Ning, don't we have any handy weapons or anything like that prepared?"

The fat man quickly asked.

"We did consider the weaponry aspect and brought some diving guns, but these guns are very powerful and single-shot. If we really encounter such a situation, their effectiveness would probably be minimal."

Ah Ning said.

"Don't worry about so much. Take as much as you can for self-defense. Tomorrow, Lao Wu will follow behind me, and you two will follow behind Lao Wu. If you encounter any abnormal situations, I will wave my hand and you will stop and not move forward. If I raise my fist, then run as fast as you can and don't stop for a moment."

The fat man said.

No one had any objections.

Ah Ning knew very well that only Fang Yun and Zhang Qi didn't have to listen to them on this trip.

This was an instruction from above. Although Aning couldn't quite understand it, obedience was Aning's basic quality.

Wu Xie then made a list based on the notes left by his grandfather, though he didn't know if it would be useful later.

However, having a 610 as a backup is nothing to worry about; as the saying goes, it's better to be prepared.

……

"They've been on the ship for so long, without coming out for some fresh air."

"Not long after, I got seasick and didn't want to get out."

How does it feel to be back here?

Fang Yun said casually.

"I didn't feel much, just..."

Zhang Qi hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

"Go back and get some rest. You're going to be busy this time."

Fang Yun waved his hand.

Seeing this, Wu Xie quickly came over, and Zhang Qi tactfully left the bow of the boat.

"As I said before, I'll teach you some proper methods for finding dragon veins and auspicious sites. I'm making it clear beforehand that once you've learned something from me, you can't look west when I say go east, understand?"

Fang Yun said calmly.

"I will absolutely obey my master!"

Wu Xie quickly changed his tune.

"From now on, when we're out in public, please call me Fang Yun."

"These are all laymen. As the saying goes, laymen watch the show. Judging from their appearance, they must have been preparing for a while. They probably know the approximate location. Let me teach you two tricks to use right away. If there are tomb raiders' holes around the tomb, just go in without hesitation. If you encounter a dead end, look around for small mechanisms. These two tricks will easily subdue them. I'll teach you the rest if I'm in a good mood."

After Fang Yun finished speaking, he left the deck and went to the cabin.
