Chapter 149: Grave Robbers' Chronicles Qi Yu 31
Wu Xie, Fatty Wang and Zhang Qiling stepped into the tomb cautiously, and a stale and decayed smell hit them in the face.
Suddenly, an extremely huge coral appeared in front of us. It looked like a gorgeous castle, emitting a strange light.
Fatty Wang opened his eyes wide and his mouth opened wide, he could hardly believe his eyes.
He stared straight at the coral, greed flashing in his eyes, and said repeatedly.
"Oh my God! We are going to get rich this time! Such a big coral must be worth a lot of money!"
He was so excited that he danced with joy, as if he saw countless gold, silver and treasures waving at him.
Wu Xie, on the other hand, seemed calmer. He observed the coral carefully and pondered in his heart.
"This coral is so large, it's really rare. Is there any other secret here?"
Zhang Qiling remained silent, but his eyes became exceptionally sharp, as if he was alert to possible dangers around him.
Wu Xie stood aside expressionlessly, and said coldly to Fatty Wang: "Don't dream, these corals are worthless!"
Fatty Wang showed disappointment on his face, but soon shifted his attention to the bells tied to the corals.
He thought to himself, these bells must have some value, right?
However, Wu Xie once again ruthlessly shattered his fantasy, shaking his head to indicate that these bells were equally worthless.
Looking at the bell in front of him, a past event gradually emerged in Wu Xie's mind.
He suddenly remembered that he had seen the same bell with his own eyes when he was exploring the Qixing Lu Palace before.
This discovery made him fall into deep thought.
When Fatty Wang heard this, he immediately made a bold guess.
"Could it be that Wang Zanghai is actually a tomb robber?"
"When he was doing feng shui for others, he stole these bells naturally! Or when he was doing construction work for others, he took the opportunity to secretly dig these bells out and placed them here as decorations!"
After hearing this, Wu Xie kept shaking his head and refuted Fatty Wang's various inferences one by one.
Then he turned and asked Zhang Qiling.
"Where are all those teammates who participated in the archaeological excavation with you now?"
Zhang Qiling’s thoughts were instantly pulled back to the past.
Those long-forgotten memories flooded into his mind like a tide, making him a little dazed for a moment.
After a while, the three people felt that there was nothing new in front of them, so they planned to find a passage out.
When they walked into the hall, Wu Xie acted like he knew what was going on and analyzed things seriously.
"According to common sense, if this tomb was built on the seabed, its top should be arched."
After saying this, he raised his head and shone the flashlight on top of his head. To his surprise, the top was flat.
This really confused Wu Xie, but he reacted quickly. He immediately changed his words and said a lot of gibberish to try to justify himself.
However, his forced explanation failed to convince others, but instead attracted some contemptuous looks.
After searching for a long time, the three people couldn't find any other way out.
At this time, Fatty Wang stood up and said.
"Okay, since we can't get through on the ground, let's go to the sky!"
Then, without saying a word, he climbed to the top of the tomb, ready to find a way to escape.
Fortunately, Fatty Wang lived up to everyone's expectations and successfully reached the summit.
Wu Xie and Zhang Qiling followed suit and climbed up. The three of them worked together and began to dig desperately on the top of the tomb.
To everyone's great disappointment, the stone wall turned out to be extremely solid.
No matter how hard the three men hammered and chiseled, it was of no avail.
Time passed minute by minute, and they had been busy for a while, but the stone wall in front of them was still as solid as a rock, with no signs of loosening.
To make matters worse, there were only thirty minutes left until high tide.
If they cannot find a way to escape from the predicament before then, the only option waiting for them is to be submerged by the tide.
It will take a long week to wait until the next low tide.
Thinking of this, the three of them became more and more anxious.
Wu Xie's face was full of guilt at this time, and he spoke to Zhang Qiling sincerely.
"Brother, I'm so sorry! The reason why I denied your memory before was not because I really didn't believe you, but I wanted to take this opportunity to cover up some things and protect my uncle."
At this moment, Zhang Qiling's thoughts fell into memories again, and then he began to have a splitting headache.
Wu Xie secretly groaned inwardly when he saw this, fearing that his previous words had irritated him again, and he quickly apologized and made amends.
However, Zhang Qiling did not care about Wu Xie's apology. At this moment, several strange scenes kept flashing through his mind like a movie.
Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of a solution. Without saying a word, he jumped off the mummy and began to search its body.
When Wu Xie saw this, he suddenly realized that Zhang Qiling had already noticed that there was explosives hidden in the dried corpse.
So, he, Zhang Qiling and Fatty Wang worked together to use ropes to tie the mummy and explosives tightly to the stone wall nearby.
After everything was ready, Wu Xie turned to Fatty Wang and said,
"Fatty, stand further away and then use the flying knife with the burning charm to shoot the explosives. This will cause an explosion and blow up the stone wall. Then we can escape smoothly."
After hearing this, Fatty Wang nodded to show that he understood.
But Fatty Wang was worried that doing so might bring danger, so the three of them discussed it again, and then a black figure suddenly appeared.
After the black shadow passed by quietly, they found that the mummy was gone. They looked again and found that the black shadow was the sea monkey.
Zhang Qiling decided to chase the sea monkey immediately, but he accidentally triggered a mechanism during the chase. A loud noise was heard, and big holes appeared on the stone wall on the top of the tomb.
The sea water continued to pour in, and the three of them fled hurriedly.
At this time, Wu Xie was entangled by the Jin Po who suddenly appeared. Just when he was in danger, Zhang Qiling came over. He came to the Jin Po and tapped her head. The Jin Po turned into countless jellyfish and swam away.
The three of them tried hard to swim upstream.
After finally escaping to the shore, Wu Xie discovered that Zhang Qiling was missing, so he decided to return to the water to save him.
Qi Yu, who was watching all this secretly, had to take action and move away dangerous creatures such as the swarm of corpse beetles hidden in the sea.
At the same time, a small protective barrier was added to Wu Xie and Wang Pangzi respectively.
