In Panjiayuan, the first thing they did was trick Lao Hu into going tomb raiding.

"Sigh, to die here so inexplicably, at least let me express my feelings of 'the rabbit mourns the fox's death'!"

"..."

Lao Yang finally understood. The old man was afraid that he would die in this tomb too. He immediately laughed and said, "Sadness? What's there to be sad about? If he doesn't die, we'll fight him to the death. Are you going to shoot him then?"

The old man with glasses was speechless.

Thinking about it carefully, Lao Yang's words do make some sense.

They all came to this tomb for the treasure; if they were to meet, it would surely be a fight to the death.

Thinking about this, the old man suddenly felt that this was actually quite good; better to die than to die himself!

Holding the torch, Wu Xie looked at the grasshopper's corpse and pondered, "If it had any companions, they should have climbed up the tree by now!"

After saying that, Wu Xie looked up at the towering bronze tree.

The old man with glasses asked, puzzled, "Climbing a tree? Why do you want to climb a tree?"

Wu Xie said, "I just thought about it carefully. We've traveled for so long, this should be deep inside the tomb, but we haven't seen anything except the bronze tree..."

"To the ancient Ku people, the bronze tree was a divine miracle, so they would carve their totems onto it..."

"Then think about it again, would their leader place his tomb in the place they consider closest to the gods?"

Wu Xie smiled and explained to the two people sitting on the ground, feeling quite certain about his analysis and guesses.

"Why!"

Upon hearing Wu Xie's words, the bespectacled old man suddenly stood up. "That's right, the tomb owner may have placed his coffin in a tree!"

"climb!"

With that, Wu Xie straightened his clothes and prepared to climb.

"Hey, wait, wait!"

Lao Yang shouted to stop the two, then quickly took out two pairs of gloves from his backpack and handed them to Wu Xie and the old man.

"Come on, come on, put this on!"

Wu Xie looked at the gloves in his hand, his suspicions rising again. "What does this mean?"

Lao Yang pointed at the bronze tree and explained, "Just think of it as a metal block carrying high voltage electricity. Wear it and you'll be safe!"

Wu Xie clearly didn't believe him. "Tell the truth!"

Wu Xie had sensed something was wrong along the way.

He always felt that Lao Yang had been here before, and more than once, and that he was very familiar with the place.

However, Wu Xie didn't understand why Lao Yang would lie to him.

At the same time, he didn't understand where Lao Yang was trying to lead him!

Chapter 279: The Ultimate Skill of the Mountain Guardian

Lao Yang is Wu Xie's brother who grew up with him!

Wu Xie couldn't understand why Lao Yang would lie to him, given their relationship.

This is the same reason why he couldn't understand why his third uncle lied to him.

Because of his third uncle, Wu Xie now hates deception the most!

Faced with Wu Xie's questioning, Lao Yang clearly didn't want to explain, saying, "I'll explain it to you slowly later!"

"..."

Wu Tianzhen was speechless. He was so tired of hearing the words "later, later" that he was practically numb to them.

Seeing that Wu Xie remained silent, Lao Yang quickly changed the subject, saying, "Master Liang, let's go..."

Master Liang, he's the old man with glasses, he's the feng shui master in Uncle Tai's gang.

He also has a good understanding of history, culture, and the layout of government offices, and is proficient in the mute writing recorded in He Mu Ji.

His name truly reflects his character!

Inside the tomb, the old man turned out to be the strategist who advised Uncle Tai's gang.

Master Liang nodded, put on gloves, and began climbing the bronze tree with Lao Yang.

Wu Xie looked down at the gloves, then looked up at the bronze tree, his mind filled with various guesses and analyses.

Only after Lao Yang and the other man had gone far away did Wu Xie grit his teeth and chase after them again.

……

the other side.

The group followed Zhang Qiling to an ancient bronze gate.

The bronze gate is about six or seven meters high and has huge reliefs on it, which are very exquisite.

Zhang Qiling, who had arrived at the bronze gate a step ahead of everyone else, stood motionless in front of it, quietly watching.

Wang Yueban approached Zhang Qiling: "Dumb Zhang?"

Zhang Qiling looked at the bronze door and slowly said, "The tombs of the Ku people are different from those of the Central Plains people. This place has been modified. Such an ingenious mechanism may be the work of Bu Yanqi!"

Su Mo nodded, agreeing with Zhang Qiling's point of view, "It's definitely the work of the Silent Cavalry. The Silent Cavalry has been here twice; this place is definitely not simple..."

Ah Ning asked, "Do you know how to open this bronze door?"

Zhang Qiling nodded slightly.

Fatty Wang stretched out his hand and said, "Come on, please begin your performance!"

Zhang Qiling took two steps up the steps, used the momentum to jump, leaping six or seven meters high. Then he drew the black gold ancient sword from behind him and inserted it into a mechanism on the bronze door.

"Clap clap clap clap clap!"

"Click click click click click click click click click click!"

The mechanism of the bronze doors was activated, and the two bronze doors slowly opened inwards.

The fat man and the four Chaos Fiends raised their guns in alert.

"Boom!"

The bronze door opened a crack just wide enough for one person to pass through, and then stopped.

Zhang Qiling went in first, followed by Su Mo.

【Ding! 】

[Congratulations on completing the selected task! Reward: "Guan Shan Zhi Mi Fu" (A Guide to Observing Mountains and Finding the Way)!]

The system's voice sounded the instant Su Mo entered the bronze door.

A Guide to Viewing Mountains!

Guanshan Taibao's ultimate skill!

【bite…】

[Congratulations, host! By combining the strengths of several schools, your Intelligence and Agility attributes have been permanently increased to 200, and your system space has been permanently increased to 1200!]

A look of joy appeared in Su Mo's eyes. His strength and agility had both reached an astonishing 200. With these attributes, he could conquer any ancient tomb in the world!

Aside from the "ultimate" bronze gate hidden in Changbai Mountain and a few other eerie and dangerous places, Su Mo really couldn't think of any ancient tomb that could trap him.

Seeing Su Mo stop in place, Hun Dun thought there was some danger and cautiously asked, "Master Su?"

"what?"

Su Mo then realized his lapse in composure, laughed heartily, and quickly caught up with Zhang Qiling.

There is a brief tomb passage inside the ancient bronze gate.

The lights in the tomb passage were still burning.

Those present were all worldly-wise and didn't make a fuss about it.

After passing through a short passage, the group entered a vast space once again.

It was extremely dark inside.

As seen through the flashlights of the crowd, there were countless stone figurines and statues in this space.

Above the space, some iron chains and vines were also hanging.

Suddenly, Su Mo heard other noises in the tomb. He activated his Golden Eyes and scanned his surroundings, only to see a monster that had appeared behind Fatty Wang at some point.

"call out!"

Su Mo closed in quickly, kicking the monster and sending it flying backward.

puff!

The astonishing power caused the monster to fall to the ground and die instantly!

Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, they saw more than a dozen of the same monsters appear around them.

Everyone raised their guns in alert.

"call out!"

"Shh!"

Su Mo's speed was astonishing; afterimages flashed by, and the whistling of his fists and the sound of air being torn apart followed one after another.

"So fast!"

The fat man's pupils contracted. "I've heard that a top-notch imperial guard from the late Qing Dynasty was named Gong Baotian. I've heard that his speed was extraordinary; he once dodged General Zhang's spear technique within twenty paces, missing three shots in a row. Master Su is probably even faster than..."

Before the fat man could finish speaking, Zhang Qiling shook his head. "Gong Baotian, I've seen him make a move. He's far inferior to Su Mo!"

The fat man clicked his tongue in amazement, "Mute Zhang, can you even see what Master Su is doing?"

"cannot!"

Zhang Qiling stated frankly, "His strength has increased again. Before, I could still clearly see his movements, but now..."

Zhang Qiling shook his head, the meaning of which was self-evident.
