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

"what!"

Just as everyone was quietly enjoying the brief and leisurely time, Ye Yixin from the archaeological team suddenly let out a scream.

Everyone tensed up immediately and looked at Ye Yixin.

"bone…"

Ye Yixin curled up in the corner, her face pale and weak.

The fat man curled his lip, "You're an archaeologist, why are you afraid of bones?"

Ye Yixin shook her head and said again, "So many bones!"

Everyone was stunned, and looked down at the ground again, discovering that there were indeed many skeletons there.

"Huh? What's this?"

The fat man, with his sharp eyes, noticed something that the others had missed. He stepped forward and quickly cleared away the surrounding bones.

Before long, a black stone was exposed.

"It looks like a head!"

"No, it's the kind of statues of gods that are enshrined in temples!"

Anliman was inexplicably terrified. "Stop digging! Stop digging!"

"If you dig any further, God will punish you..."

As he spoke, Anliman knelt down on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly to the statue, admitting his mistakes.

"Oh…"

The fat man had long disliked this eccentric old man and immediately retorted, "This place isn't under God's jurisdiction. If he dares to come, I, Fatty, will make him march in formation before he leaves!"

"Don't listen to him, that old geezer is wicked!"

"Come on, guys, let's dig this big head out!"

Susu!

At this moment, the sand began to shake at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye, and several black ants were dug out by the fat man.

Just then, Su Mo's right eye twitched. A bad premonition arose in his heart.

"That ant is huge!"

"What kind of ants are these?!"

The members of the archaeological team were discussing it animatedly.

Su Mo was amused by these young people and roared, "Fatty, stop!"

But by then it was too late; more and more ants had come up from underground to the surface.

"Go, go, go!"

Su Mo drew the Crimson Sky Sword with a "whoosh".

"Desert army ants!"

Old Hu's expression changed drastically. "Fatty, let's go!"

The crowd retreated and gathered around Su Mo. Looking at the dark mass of desert army ants around them, Su Mo took a deep breath, and the aura of his Azure Dragon bloodline burst forth.

Instantly, the desert army ants stopped and dared not approach the group again.

Seeing this, Su Mo urged everyone to leave quickly, "Let's go, let's go, hurry up!"

The crowd panicked and hurriedly fled the cave.

Once everyone had left, Su Mo sheathed his sword and quickly slipped away.

Why were there such skeletal remains in the cave? At this moment, everyone had the answer.

But no one spoke; they were only concerned with saving their lives.

"go!"

Su Mo mounted his camel and embarked on another escape journey.

Chapter Twenty-Five: Tomb Raiding? We're Professionals, Okay?

"Boom!"

The desert army ants behind them charged toward the group.

Upon entering the desert, everyone witnessed firsthand the power of this vast expanse of yellow sand.

The members of the archaeological team dared not relax and urged the camels on to hurry on their way.

They rode their horses at full gallop for a full half hour before finally stopping.

Seeing that the terrifying desert army ants were no longer in sight, the young members of the archaeological team jumped off the camels and sat down on the ground.

"not good!"

Xiao Sa, a member of the archaeological team, shouted, "We ran in such a hurry that we forgot the water we specially prepared in the cave!"

Fatty and Old Hu looked to Su Mo for help, but Su Mo just shrugged and said helplessly, "Don't look at me, I can't help it either!"

Cutting off water in the desert is an extremely dangerous situation, so Su Mo had to take it seriously.

"Old Master Anliman..."

Su Mo looked at the old man on the ground, "Do you know where there is a water source around here?"

As a living map of the desert, Su Mo felt that this old man Anliman should be able to give him some unexpected surprises.

"I know!"

Anliman thought for a moment, then nodded. "Yes, yes, I do know a place nearby. Come with me!"

The group stood up, changed their route on the spot, and officially began their search for water with Anliman.

.........

Three hours later, it was completely dark. Everyone was exhausted, but fortunately they had arrived at a green space.

The green space was overgrown with weeds, with a well sitting in the center, and several gazelles grazing nearby.

Got it!

Now we have food and drink!

Su Mo drew his Crimson Sky Sword and casually killed one of the yellow sheep, while the remaining yellow sheep scattered in all directions.

"Old Hu..."

Su Mo dragged the yellow sheep to Fatty and Old Hu's side, "Take care of it, we'll have a big meal tonight!"

The fat man gave a thumbs up and praised, "It has to be Brother Su!"

Professor Chen also instructed the members of the archaeological team to start filling water containers.

As night fell, with food and drinks readily available, everyone was able to sit down and enjoy such a delicious meal.

"Comrade Xiao Su..."

During the meal, Professor Chen looked at the sword behind Su Mo and asked, "Can I see your sword?"

Su Mo chewed on a lamb leg and casually handed over the Crimson Sky Sword.

"This is??"

Upon seeing the words "Chixiao" engraved on the longsword, Professor Chen exclaimed in surprise, "Is this the sword used by Emperor Gaozu of Han, Liu Bang, to slay the emperor?"

Su Mo chuckled, "A high-quality replica? Professor Chen likes it? If you like it, I can have someone make one for you another day. How about the Xuanyuan Sword? It's quite expensive though, I don't know if you can accept the price?"

Is it fake?

Professor Chen chuckled sheepishly and handed the longsword back to him. "Let's talk about it another day..."

Even if it were a high-quality replica, Professor Chen knew the price was far beyond his reach, so he stopped worrying about it. "That's enough for today. Xiao Sa, Xiao Chu, bring out the tents and set them up!"

"Yes!"

The young people nodded in agreement.

"Miss Yang..."

Su Mo stood up and said to the archaeological team, "You guys keep eating, we're going out for a smoke!"

The fat man ate with gusto, his mouth greasy, "Why are you smoking? My lamb leg isn't ready yet..."

"Fatty..."

Old Hu wasn't a scoundrel like Fatty; he knew that Su Mo must have something to say to the two brothers because he said those things.

"Let's go out for a smoke!"

Old Hu forcefully pulled and dragged the fat man out.

The three met outside the green space. Su Mo looked up and gazed at the changing stars around him.

"Brother Su..."

Old Hu said, "Have you noticed it too? The arrangement of the stars in the sky is very similar to a layout described in my Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Feng Shui Secret Technique. This green space under our feet is a rare treasure in the world!"

Su Mo nodded, "A compass!"

"it is good!"

Old Hu took out the compass that the tomb raiders never parted with, but instead of handing it over to Su Mo, he started operating it himself.

"........."

Su Mo was stunned. Having been to tombs many times, he had forgotten about Lao Hu's identity.

This guy is a genuine tomb raider, and he's very skilled.

Old Hu glanced around and, seeing that no one was there, said with relief, "There really is a large tomb below!"

The fat man spat out a thick wad of phlegm, looking like a completely different person. "Then what are we waiting for? Let's get started!"

"Damn it, this is all ice and sand. Gentlemen, we're tomb raiders, not bodyguards!"
