The Unorthodox Tomb Raider

The fat man said quickly.

Wu Xie took out the military knife tucked at his waist, gently scraped off a layer, and smelled it.

Although Wu Xie didn't learn many skills from his third uncle.

But at least I did visit the tomb of King Lu Shang once.

Wu Xie could still smell things like that.

"The owner of these footprints either enjoys stepping on corpse wax or is himself a corpse wax."

Wu Xie frowned as he spoke.

"According to our tomb raiding rules, whatever is in this ancient tomb, whether it's a zombie or something else, if you want to continue in the tomb, these things are the biggest hidden dangers. If you can eliminate them first, it's best to strike first."

The fat man picked up the air rifle in his hand as he spoke.

The fat man pursed his lips at Wu Xie, gesturing for Wu Xie to follow.

"You fatso, nothing I do with you ever goes smoothly or normally. Don't even think about messing with me again, I'm not going to do it."

Wu Xie muttered to himself.

Wu Xie shook his head, and the fat man sighed.

At this moment, Zhang Qi walked over, ignoring the fat man and heading straight for the porcelain jar.

The fat man quickly followed behind, and Wu Xie felt that he couldn't appear too weak in front of a woman.

So he quickly followed behind the fat man.

The fat man carefully touched the large porcelain jar with the air gun, a gesture that almost made Wu Xie burst out laughing.

After poking at it a few times and finding no reaction from the large porcelain jar, the fat man mustered up his courage and took a few steps forward to take a look.

"Damn it, this is just a broken box, yet it's making me all nervous. 々."

The fat man said with dissatisfaction.

"You still call yourself Fatty and claim to have robbed countless tombs, and you still call this a box? Can't you even tell? This is clearly a coffin, a coffin called the Double Phoenix Carved Infant Coffin, about the size of a violin case."

Wu Xie said disdainfully.

"Holy crap, you're saying this box is a little zongzi's coffin? That's absolutely outrageous."

"I can't believe it," the fat man said in surprise.

Wu Xie nodded and examined the small coffin more closely.

A hole was found in the coffin, and traces of some unknown black liquid were discovered.

"I think I've seen this situation in Grandpa's notes before, but I can't quite remember it right now."

Wu Xie muttered to himself.

"Judging from the size of this coffin, the child buried here was no ordinary person. It's just a pity that we don't know where the body went, otherwise we could have gotten some good stuff."

The fat man shone his flashlight on himself and said helplessly.

"That fatso is absolutely right. The coffins of children who die young or are buried alive with their parents will naturally contain a lot of things. The most precious thing is the preservative pill inside the child's stomach, which is a priceless item."

Wu Xie muttered to himself.

The fat man, unwilling to give up, started searching around again.

Unfortunately, there wasn't even a trace of anything around, let alone a corpse. The fat man wore a look of resentment.

The fat man, still stubborn as ever, tried to rummage through the coffin again, but Wu Xie saw this and quickly stopped him.

"This coffin is different from ordinary coffins. It doesn't just hold corpses. I advise you not to touch it to avoid any accidents."

Wu Xie said.

"I'm telling you, you're such a boring person. The corpse in the coffin is gone. Do you think the coffin will jump up and bite me if I'm turning it over? You're just meddling in other people's business. Get out of the way."

The fat man said with dissatisfaction.

Wu Xie had been very dissatisfied with Fatty before and wanted to kick him a couple of times. Now he wanted to slap Fatty a couple of times, but fortunately A Ning stopped him in time.

"I'll say it again: whatever grudges we have, we can settle them once we get out. And don't forget, our purpose this time isn't just to loot the funerary objects. Don't forget our real purpose. Right now, finding the main burial chamber is the most important thing."

Ah Ning quickly said.

Only after hearing what Ah Ning said did the fat man put away his arrogant attitude.

Wu Xie kept a watchful eye on his surroundings.

While the underwater tomb's structure is indeed quite ingenious, it is far inferior to a genuine imperial mausoleum.

In other words, this ancient tomb is probably not as large as an imperial mausoleum.

The side chamber is rectangular in shape, and the walls are covered with murals that have been corroded.

Above the side chamber was an arched dome, and in every corner of the room were bronze lamps that burned eternally.

On the left is a low door, which should lead to the passageway.

Porcelain funerary objects were placed elsewhere.

There are also some relief designs near the spring, but they are not as good as the top-quality ones I saw before.

While Wu Xie was still observing, the others had already tidied up their equipment.

"I suddenly have a question for you all. Do you think the little rice dumpling in the coffin was taken out by tomb raiders, or did it crawl out of the coffin on its own?"

The fat man's sudden question left everyone somewhat bewildered.

The fat man seemed to be deliberately keeping everyone hanging; he opened his mouth, but remained silent.

Wang Dehao's hesitant expression made Wu Xie very unhappy.

"Hey, just say what you mean, stop dawdling and annoying people."

Wu Xie said.

"Here's what I'm thinking: if I were one of those people who came to raid the tomb, where would I put the body after taking anything of value from it? Do you think it would be better to put the body in that big porcelain jar over there?"

The fat man glanced at the large porcelain jar.

"If Third Uncle was among the first to come and raid tombs, it's possible he would do something like that, given his style. But after all, it was the body of a child. Even Third Uncle wouldn't do something so heinous! It's just too disgusting. I wonder what this fat woman's heart is made of, that she can come out of such a disgusting mouth."

Wu Xie muttered to himself.

Apart from Wu Xie, everyone else looked at the fat man with great disdain.

"Don't look at me like that. Why are you looking at me like that? I just heard a sound coming from that big porcelain jar, and that's when I thought of it. You're looking at me like I'm a pervert."

The fat man said, feeling wronged.

"Don't we know you, Fatty? You're probably still after the treasure on the corpse, right..."

Before Wu Xie could finish speaking, the large porcelain jar suddenly shook.

With a thud, it fell to the ground.

"That fatso wouldn't be such a jinx, would he? Did he actually say all of this correctly?"

Wu Xie nervously swallowed.

No one dared to speak; they all stood there dumbfounded.

The large porcelain jar spun twice in place before suddenly rolling towards the crowd.

The crowd was so frightened that they took dozens of steps back.

Suddenly, the large porcelain jar changed direction and rolled away to another location.

Wu Xie was startled as he watched the large porcelain jar roll in the direction it was moving.

The large porcelain jar rolled directly toward the entrance of the terracotta warrior passage.

With a loud crash, the large porcelain jar knocked over the entrance to the terracotta warrior path.

It wobbled and bumped twice, then stopped there and remained motionless.

"I, Fatty, am the most knowledgeable one. See, I was right! The child's body must be in that big porcelain jar 613. Judging from the situation, that zombie doesn't want us to enter this terracotta warrior passage. It's deliberately blocking us there. I, Fatty, can't stand for that. If I don't smash it to pieces, I, Fatty Wang, will change my name."

The fat man spoke in a low voice, his tone as if he wanted to boast to the heavens.

"I don't care whether you smash it to pieces or not, but I have to tell you beforehand that the style of that large porcelain jar is probably blue and white porcelain from the Yuan or Ming dynasty. Judging from the rim and the patterns on it, this thing would be worth at least tens of millions at an overseas auction."

Wu Xie said.

"How much, how much! Starting at tens of millions? If that thing were auctioned off, I, Fatty, would be set for life."

The fat man said, his eyes wide.

Wu Xie nodded; Fatty's reaction was exactly what he wanted.

Having learned his lesson from the previous experience in the tomb of King Lu Shang, Wu Xie was well aware of the situation.

No matter what's in the tomb, we absolutely mustn't let that fatso touch it. If he does, nothing good will come of it.

Wu Xie himself hadn't seen the pattern on the jar clearly; he was just mentioning it casually.

After all, someone as mercenary as Fatty would definitely not touch it if he heard that the thing was extremely valuable.
