Tomb raiding: Carrying a coffin during a funeral procession, rewarded with the Dragon Elephant Prajn
Chapter 7 Bloodstained Cellphone
the next day.
Before dawn, Wu Xie and the others got up.
However, Li Changsheng was earlier than them, drinking porridge in the hall. He slurped it down and finished a large bowl of white porridge in no time.
Seeing this, Wu Xie quickly asked the female waitress at the guesthouse for a bowl of white porridge and a side dish.
The side dish was pickled radish made by the waitress herself; it was sour, spicy, crunchy, and sweet, and tasted very refreshing.
After he finished his bowl of porridge, Wu Sansheng, Pan Zi, and the others gradually arrived at the hall.
After much persuasion, Pan Zi found the waitress's younger brother, a boy of seven or eight years old, and asked him to take him to the grove where the treasure had once been found.
On the other side, after finishing his porridge and paying for his room and meal, Li Changsheng picked up the black coffin again and left the guesthouse on his own.
"Brother Li..."
Wu Xie realized what was happening and wanted to chase after them.
When they walked out of the guesthouse, they could no longer even see Li Changsheng's back.
"Alright, mistress, we can't fathom the thoughts of such a master. Let's mind our own business."
Pan Zi nodded vigorously upon hearing this, "Third Master, our strength is not bad either."
Wu Xie remained silent, took out his phone, looked at a number in the phonebook on the screen, and felt a little relieved.
Although I didn't manage to get close to them, at least I got their contact information, which might come in handy someday.
Moreover, Li Changsheng also said yesterday that he would send the female puppet in the black coffin to a tomb, and there might be a chance to meet her again.
……
Li Changsheng left the village, carrying the black coffin on his back, and headed straight north.
He is different from Wu Xie and others. He has a map provided by the system in his mind, which can take him directly to the target location, so he does not need a guide or map.
Li Changsheng walked along the mountain path for about two hours before a forest finally appeared before him.
This is the forest where the female staff member at the guesthouse mentioned last night, the one where 100 human heads were unearthed.
The grove of trees was dense with foliage, and sunlight filtered through the gaps, dappling the ground in sparse patches.
Li Changsheng's footsteps crunched on the ground covered with fallen leaves.
After walking for a short while, he suddenly noticed something flashing on the ground out of the corner of his eye.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a cell phone.
This is a silver flip phone that Motorola released a couple of years ago. Flip phones like this have long since disappeared in later generations, but in 2003, it was one of the most advanced phones, and its price was often several thousand yuan.
The silver flip phone was stained with blood.
Upon closer inspection, Li Changsheng discovered that the fallen leaves nearby were covered in bloodstains, which snaked all the way into the depths of the forest.
Li Changsheng frowned slightly.
"I remember that before Wu Xie, Fatty Wang and a group of foreigners arrived at the Lu Palace ahead of time, but they took a different route, so Wu Xie and his group did not run into Fatty Wang's group."
"However, although Fatty Wang inherited the skills of a tomb raider, he only had a superficial understanding, a mere dabbler. His team encountered a corpse beetle attack as soon as they entered the tomb, and everyone was trapped inside, some dead, some maimed. Only Fatty Wang managed to escape and survive!"
Thinking of this, Li Changsheng's lips curled up slightly, and he walked straight into the depths of the woods.
He hadn't gone far when he saw a dozen tents and the campsite of Fatty Wang's team.
The campsite is now deserted, and the tops of the tents are piled with dead branches and leaves!
Clearly, the people at the camp had been gone for several days, otherwise this wouldn't be the case.
Li Changsheng was not in a hurry. He patiently followed the map in his mind and walked to a position a few hundred meters outside the camp. Under a thick, towering tree, he discovered the tomb raider's hole left by Fatty Wang's team!
However, the tunnel wasn't very big; it could only accommodate one person at a time.
He was carrying a black coffin, but he really couldn't get in.
Seeing this, Li Changsheng glanced at the sun overhead and decided to wait until nightfall to enter the tomb.
……
Time flies.
After an unknown amount of time, just as Li Changsheng was sitting beside the tomb raider's tunnel with his eyes closed, he faintly heard footsteps.
He slowly opened his eyes and saw that Wu Xie and the others had finally arrived.
Wu Xie also spotted Li Changsheng under the big tree at a glance and rushed over.
"Brother Li, what a coincidence, we meet again!"
As they were talking, Wu Xie also saw the tunnel next to Li Changsheng.
He was taken aback and asked in surprise, "What's this?"
"The tunnel dug by the previous group of tomb raiders."
Upon hearing this answer, Wu Xie's eyes lit up, and he exclaimed with delight, "So, we don't need to bother digging another tunnel! Hehe, I have to tell Uncle Three right away."
As he spoke, Wu Xie hurriedly ran back and told Wu Sansheng and the others about the tomb raider's tunnel there.
Wu Sansheng and his group quickly came over. Wu Sansheng glanced at Li Changsheng, then looked around the tunnel and said quietly, "This tunnel is located above the dragon's head, which is exactly what Feng Shui says, the image of a dragon flying and a phoenix dancing. It seems that whoever dug this tunnel was also an expert in Feng Shui."
"Third Uncle, do you mean this tomb-raiding tunnel is better?"
"That's not how it works. The location I chose leads to the sacrificial pit, while this tomb robber's hole leads to the burial pit in the tomb chamber. They are not the same place."
At this point, Wu Sansheng thought for a moment and said, "Since there are already ready-made tunnels, it's obviously easier to just take what's readily available."
Actually, besides this reason, there is another reason.
That's because Wu Sansheng just had Pan Zi try digging with a shovel, but all he dug out was bloody mud.
In the world of tomb raiding, this omen is considered extremely unlucky.
Even Wu Sansheng had his doubts; if there were other paths to take, it would be better to take other paths.
After all, he was just setting up a scheme to gradually involve Wu Xie in the struggle between the Nine Gates and the Wang family; he didn't intend for his nephew to be sent to his death.
Upon hearing Wu Sansheng's words, the shop assistant Da Kui was already getting restless.
He came here to make money, but he dawdled all the way and didn't even see a single copper coin.
With the tunnel in sight, Da Kui hurriedly asked, "Third Master, what are we waiting for? Shall we just go down?"
Wu Sansheng shook his head and looked at Li Changsheng.
The latter shrugged and casually said, "Go ahead and die if you want, I won't stop you."
"ah?!"
Upon hearing this, Wu Sansheng was slightly taken aback and subconsciously looked at Zhang Qiling, who had been silent and taciturn, not far away.
Zhang Qiling spoke very few times on the journey, but every time he did, it was to discuss important matters with Wu Sansheng.
Zhang Qiling nodded slightly. "He's right, there's danger. We need to wait!"
Upon hearing this, Wu Sansheng had no doubts.
If even Zhang Qiling felt it was dangerous, it meant there must be something wrong with the tunnel. In that case, let's wait and see; there's no rush.
