Su Mo laughed heartily, feeling extremely relaxed. "Let's go back and eat first, get a good night's sleep tonight, and be well-rested for tomorrow's tomb raiding!"

"no problem!"

"I'll listen to Brother Su!"

After quickly packing up their gear, the group turned around and went back to eat.

......

The next day, at the break of dawn, after having breakfast, the group officially entered the tomb.

"I can't believe there's a place like this underground!"

Looking at the exquisitely carved tomb passageway around him, the fat man looked like a country bumpkin visiting a grand garden.

Not only the fat man, but also Su Mo and the other two were looking around.

It would be a lie to say that the four of them were not nervous when they went down into a tomb for the first time.

"Old Hu, you can wear the Japanese helmet for now!"

"Young lady, these are black donkey hooves I specially brought from the village, please take them..."

"Master Su, here's an entrenching tool for you!"

The fat man distributed equipment to the three men, then picked up a few stones from the ground and threw them forward.

"Hey Fatty, what are you doing? Why are you acting so suspiciously!"

Yingzi didn't understand the fat man's behavior.

"I call this testing the waters!"

The fat man looked serious. "I once heard that some tomb owners deliberately set up traps in their tomb passages to prevent tomb robbers!"

"Ha ha…"

Su Mo laughed and said, "The tomb raiders and Japanese devils outside have entered this place many times. They have already scouted the way for us, and the mechanisms have already been activated!"

"Follow me..."

With that, Su Mo took the lead and walked to the front.

"Uh…"

The fat man scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, "It's a little different from what I imagined..."

"fine…"

Su Mo still praised, "Being careful is never a bad thing. Caution is the right thing to do. Only by being careful can you ensure a safe journey!"

Chapter Nine: When the rooster crows and the lamp goes out, don't touch the gold.

In the deep tomb passage, Su Mo walked in front, leading the way for the three of them.

Su Mo was a general in charge of tomb raiding, and with his superb skills, Hu Bayi and the others walked with their chests held high and their heads held high.

"The tomb raiders really did ransack this place!"

Su Mo and the others entered the main tomb chamber without encountering any obstacles.

The main burial chamber is very large, with a black stone platform placed in the middle.

Hu Bayi pondered, "This place shouldn't have been visited by tomb raiders..."

Su Mo laughed, "That's because they didn't discover the layout here..."

"The coffin of the tomb's occupant should be located beneath the central stone platform, requiring a mechanism to be triggered. Those tomb raiders clearly failed to find it!"

"Don't touch anything around you..."

Su Mo gave everyone serious instructions, then looked around to see if there were any mechanisms to activate the stone platform.

As Su Mo walked, he looked around at the murals. "These murals should be from the Song, Jin, and Yuan dynasties..."

"Brother Su..."

Yingzi clung to Su Mo's arm, following closely behind him. "Let's hurry up and get out of here. It's so eerie; I have a feeling someone's watching us..."

Su Mo comforted her, "Don't be afraid with Brother Su here!"

At this moment, Hu Bayi seemed to have discovered a new continent, "There's another burial chamber here..."

Su Mo also discovered the burial chamber not far away. He slowly walked into it and found that, apart from armor and weapons, the ground was covered with bottles and jars, most of which had been turned into rubble.

"These tomb raiders..."

Wang the Fat Man behind him cursed angrily, "How could he have ruined this place like this!"

"That's it, not a single one is valuable!"

After finishing his rant, Fatty Wang stopped paying attention to the rubble on the ground and looked elsewhere to see if there were any other treasures.

Hey!

No wonder you tomb raiders are so poor; not all the porcelain on the ground is rubble, there are a few pieces that are well preserved.

While Hu Bayi and the others were not paying attention, Su Mo placed all the well-preserved porcelain pieces on the ground into the system space.

"Old Hu..."

Fatty Wang pointed to the spiked club in front of him, "This weapon is in pretty good condition..."

"Bah!"

Fatty Wang spat, rolled up his sleeves, and tried to move the spiked club, but no matter how hard he tried, the club wouldn't budge.

"Damn it..."

Wang Pangzi collapsed to the ground, cursing loudly, "No wonder the tomb raiders didn't take it with them, they couldn't move it!"

"Old Hu, you give it a try..."

Hu Bayi also tried, but the result was the same; the spiked club was simply unmoved.

"I see!"

Hu Bayi slapped his forehead, suddenly realizing, "The tomb owner must have been a great general, and this spiked club is his weapon!"

Fatty Wang looked dejected. "This weapon must weigh at least 200 pounds. This general is indeed no ordinary person."

Su Mo stepped forward and pulled hard with both hands, and the spiked club that hadn't moved an inch suddenly burst out of the ground. "Let's go, there's nothing valuable here, the treasure is still in the tomb owner's coffin!"

"My God!"

The fat man exclaimed, "Brother Su, you're not a monster, are you...?"

Hu Bayi and Yingzi both stared wide-eyed, looking utterly speechless.

Stop being so cheeky!

Su Mo walked out of the burial chamber without looking back. "Come on, I'll take you to find the treasure!"

Upon hearing that there was treasure, Fatty Wang quickly followed behind Su Mo.

Before long, Su Mo also found the mechanism on the stone platform. "You all hide first, I need to open the coffin of the tomb's occupant..."

After what had just happened, Fatty Wang treated Su Mo with the utmost reverence, and stopped spouting his usual nonsense. He obediently pulled Yingzi and Hu Bayi aside and hid a dozen feet away.

"Crack!"

Su Mo stretched out his right hand and pressed it firmly into a square stone on a mural.

"Boom!"

A dull hum echoed, and numerous arrow holes were exposed on the surrounding walls.

shhhhhh!

Hundreds of arrows shot towards Su Mo like bees swarming together.

"Brother Su!"

"Brother Su!"

Yingzi and the other two gasped in surprise.

"It's alright..."

Su Mo threw the spiked club aside and then used his light-footed skill, "Treading Snow Without a Trace," to dodge and weave through the confined space.

In just over ten seconds, more than a thousand arrows were fired, but they didn't even touch Su Mo's robes.

"God!"

The fat man clenched his fist, extremely excited, "Pah, pah, pah! What bullshit God! From now on, Brother Su, I believe you, I believe you..."

"Leaving no trace in the snow..."

Seeing that no more arrows were fired, Su Mo landed gracefully and laughed, "This lightness skill is indeed amazing!"

Seeing that Su Mo was safe and sound, Wang Pangzi and the other two all breathed a sigh of relief.

Hu Bayi gave a thumbs-up and praised, "Brother Su, you're the first person I've ever admired..."

"Brother Su, you're amazing! You're a legendary martial arts master!"

Yingzi smiled radiantly, "It was like watching a movie just now..."

"boom!"

Just as Hu Bayi and his two companions reached Su Mo's side, the stone platform roared again.

This time it was even more somber than before.

It cracked!

The fat man loudly alerted everyone, "The stone platform has cracked!"

Su Mo and the others each took out their flashlights and shone them forward.

After the stone platform cracked open, a dark brown coffin slowly rose up.

"This should be the main coffin!"

The group stepped forward to examine the tomb owner's personal coffin up close.
