"Plop!"
Blackie jumped into the black stone slab.
The surroundings were dark and devoid of light. The stench of decay and the air that had been stagnant for too long assaulted his senses.
Blackie wasn't a rookie. In fact, he had already put on a professional gas mask.
He turned on a light stick, and in an instant, a red light illuminated the surroundings.
"Goldie, you guard outside. Ah Li, come down with me!”
Old Hei didn't rush to explore the tomb, but shouted at the top.
The blonde was a little angry. Ever since he followed Old Hei, he had always been a lookout. Every time they split the loot, he didn't know how much treasure Old Hei and Ah Li had taken.
This time, the blonde felt that he had done everything he could to repay Old Hei's kindness. No matter what, it was his turn!
So, the blonde squeezed forward. He wasn't stupid enough to say what he was thinking. He shouted at Blackie,""Brother Hei, let me go in and learn from you this time. Didn't you always say that you wanted to bring me into the industry?”
Ah Li, who had always been quiet, did not express any opinions as usual.
Old Hei, who had already entered the tomb, knew what Goldie was thinking. However, he decided to give Goldie a chance. He was greedy and careless, but he was still obedient.
"Alright, Goldie, come down. Ah Li, go around and take a look!”Old Hei said.
The yellow-haired guy was delighted and quickly followed the rope into the ancient tomb.
"Wow! Brother Hei, this place is surrounded by stone walls. Where can there be any treasures?”The blonde said in disappointment.
"Idiot!"
Old Hei couldn't help but curse. Even a fool would know who would put their treasure in a place where they could see it the moment they opened the door!
"This is only a side room. The real main room is still inside. Why did you leave your treasure at the door?”
"Hehe, Brother Hei is right."
Goldie scratched his head and followed behind Blackie. The passage in the ancient tomb was very narrow, only enough for one person to pass through. The height was only about 1.6 meters. The two of them could only bend over and slowly move forward.
"What a pity." Old Hei suddenly said.
At the end of the passage was a wide stone room. An ancient bronze coffin was placed in the middle of the room. The surrounding stone walls were carved with some ferocious ghost embossed, which looked very scary.
"What's wrong, Brother Hei? Is there no treasure?”The yellow-haired guy was extremely worried and quickly asked.
"That's not it."
Blackie's first words made the blonde heave a sigh of relief.
Old Black continued with a hint of disappointment,"I thought it would be at least a medium-sized ancient tomb. I didn't expect that other than the side chamber, there would be the main chamber. It can't even be considered a small ancient tomb. The owner of the tomb should be a small official with some status. There are usually not many funerary objects in this kind of tomb. It all depends on luck!”
After listening to Old Hei's explanation, the blonde was still optimistic.
"Who cares if it's a big tomb or a small tomb? As long as there are treasures, it's fine as long as we don't lose out on this trip!”
As the blonde spoke, he walked to the bronze coffin in the middle of the room and placed his hand on it without any hesitation.
Blackie frowned but didn't say anything. It was just a small tomb, after all, and nothing unexpected would happen. However, the embossed on the walls were interesting.
Old Hei, who didn't have much hope for this small tomb, shone the light on the relief sculpture on the stone wall. He looked at it and wondered.
Suddenly!
Blackie's face changed when he saw the images on the embossed.
"This is not a f * cking tomb of the dead!”Old Hei cursed.
He quickly turned his head and looked at Goldie, who was pushing open the coffin lid. He shouted,"Hurry up and leave! This is a tomb of the living!"
The so-called tomb of the living referred to being sealed in a coffin while alive and then buried. Usually, this would happen next to a real large ancient tomb, a trap specially set up for grave robbers!
According to ancient records, after some ancient nobles died, they would ask craftsmen to build large tombs. However, after the construction was completed, these craftsmen would either be buried with them or used as living tombs to kill potential grave robbers in the future.
Without a doubt, this ancient tomb was like that.
Old Hei knew this, but that didn't mean that Blondie knew.
At this moment, the blonde was thinking about the treasures in the coffin, such as the fist-sized luminous pearl, the jade pendant in the corpse's mouth, and so on. Even though he heard Blackie's shout, his hand instinctively pushed open the coffin lid.
In the next moment, the small stone room suddenly shook!
"Damn it!"
Old Hei cursed, but he reacted quickly. He grabbed Goldie's arm and was about to run out.
The moment he grabbed the blonde's arm, he pulled hard. He thought that he would need some strength to pull it, but he did not expect that he would be able to pull it over without using much strength.
"No!"
Old Hei's heart skipped a beat as he felt the force in his hand. He immediately reacted and looked at the blonde.
There was no sign of Goldie in the pitch-black stone room. What he was holding was only Goldie's bloody broken hand!
"Howl!"
At this moment, a beast-like roar sounded in the stone room.
In the next moment, Blackie saw a bloody mouth swallow a figure alive. Its two red eyes shone brightly in the dark!
"Plop!"
Blackie's light stick fell to the ground, and his scarlet eyes turned to look at him.
"F * ck!"
At this moment, Blackie hated that reckless Goldie, but Goldie was dead, so he had to face this monster.
But he had been through a lot. The closer he was to death, the calmer he was.
He had an idea and threw all the tools in his hand at the monster. Then, he retreated into the narrow passage without thinking. He rolled and crawled all the way back to the side room.
"Ah Li, quickly pull me up!"
Blackie stared at the narrow and dark passage, afraid that a pair of red eyes would appear, but there was no movement above his head.
"Ah Li?"
Old Hei felt that something was wrong and called out again.
But soon, he was met with a strong light from a torchlight that pierced him so hard that he could not open his eyes.
At the same time, a faint voice was heard.""Brother Hei, you're under arrest."
Even though the tone was different, Old Hei could still recognize the voice. It was the one who had been loyal to him for years and rarely spoke!
At this moment, he suddenly recalled why every time he went to sell the stolen goods, those black-market merchants would disappear one after another after a period of time. It turned out that Ah Li, this spy, had been casting a long line to catch a big fish!
However…
Blackie heard the beast roars coming from the dark tunnel again."Hurry up and pull me up. I'm willing to confess!”
