Chapter 426: Dilemma

The middle-aged man smiled and walked straight towards Mu Chen, and the traitor just now seemed to be very jealous of this middle-aged man, so he replied and took out the guard behind Yuhe.

The middle-aged man looked at Mu Chen very proudly, and led several accomplices into the secret room.

He patted Mu Chen on the shoulder and said, "You were working part-time just now, so where are the three old things?"

Mu Chen knew that the other party would ask this, and he immediately replied: "The three old experts were so frightened when they heard the robbery just now, they ran away a long time ago!"

"Then why didn't you run?"

Mu Chen hurriedly replied: "I wanted to run, but as soon as I ran out of the ancient tomb, I saw a large group of you walking towards you, if I ran out at that time, wouldn't you be regarded as a live target?"

"Do you know in what direction those three old things are running away?" The middle-aged man asked Mu Chen seriously, as if he didn't expect that the three old experts were hiding in the ear chamber in the ancient tomb at the moment, and it seemed that they really answered that sentence - the most dangerous place is the safest place, and this group of tomb robbers who have killed red-eyed people don't seem to be aware of this problem at all.

Mu Chen replied very sincerely: "I was still collecting in this secret room just now, I only heard the three of them don't know who shouted that something was going on outside, and when I put away the things in my hand and went out, the three old men had already come and disappeared, so I don't know what direction they ran in, big brother, don't worry, every word of mine is the truth, since I am already in your hands now, I will do what you want me to do!"

"You are quite knowledgeable about current affairs," the middle-aged man laughed meaningfully, "What I want you to do is not complicated, just help us open these coffins, and the rest, you have nothing to do!"

"Huh?!" Mu Chen was stunned for a while, he pointed to the sarcophagus beside him and said, "My coffin is made of stone, how can I open it alone?"

"Of course I didn't let you open it alone," the middle-aged man laughed, "When we came, we just didn't figure out how to open these coffins, otherwise you would think I would have kept the contents of the coffins for you to archaeology!"

The middle-aged man turned his head to the soil behind him: "You go outside and bring the tools, and then take some more bags to load all the gold, silver and jewelry in this secret room, but you so-called experts are capable, we stayed here for two or two nights, and we didn't even find that there was a secret room here, ashamed, ashamed, after so many years of debut, this is the first time I missed!"

After listening to the middle-aged man's words, Mu Chen instantly understood-this middle-aged man should be the tomb robber gang that was hit this time, but he should be a fish that slipped through the net, and he was also a leader, and then he got information from the traitor, knowing that Mu Chen and his group of five people entered the ancient tomb, and knew that they found a secret room in the ancient tomb, so after his accomplices were arrested, this leader found all the people again and made a comeback, and his goal was only one- It's the gold and silver jewels in this room, and the treasures in the coffin!

Although Mu Chen didn't know too much, he also knew that the gold, silver and jewelry in this secret room alone were enough for them to make a lot of money, and if they took out the priceless cultural relics in the coffin, this group of tomb robbers estimated that their net worth would be hundreds of millions in an instant.

Mu Chen was thinking about it, when the middle-aged man suddenly pushed him roughly: "Let me ask you, can you open this coffin?"

Mu Chen instantly understood, it seemed that there was some mechanism on this sarcophagus, but this group of tomb robbers didn't figure it out, so there was no way to open the sarcophagus and take out the treasures inside, and they obviously pinned their hopes on Mu Chen, thinking that Mu Chen, as an "archaeological expert", must know how to open this sarcophagus, but what they didn't know was that Mu Chen was not a so-called archaeological expert at all, and even if he really knew how to open this sarcophagus, how could he follow what they did?

Mu Chen hurriedly replied: "Big brother, I explained to you just now, I'm just a part-time worker, or a temporary worker, so I don't know a lot, my job is to give three old experts a hand, these three old men know things, I estimate that I have only learned less than one percent, so you see that now the three old men have run away, and I can't open this sarcophagus!"

"Yours is true?" The middle-aged man finished this sentence in a weird manner, and suddenly took out a knife from his body and put it against Mu Chen's neck, "You look into my eyes, repeat what you just said!"

Mu Chen's heart rose instantly, he didn't know if this middle-aged man would really hurt him with this knife, he had to be fully prepared, always pay attention to the middle-aged man, whether he could react or not, he would do his best - as long as the middle-aged man intended to hurt him, he could only fight back!

Mu Chen's heart was in his throat, he fixed his mind, and then replied: " Big brother, my words are true, you see I'm only this age, how can I know how much knowledge, and those three old men don't teach me much, so I know even less, I think otherwise, I'll go out with you and find these three old men, it's the desert outside, and it's night again, they will definitely not leave the desert on foot, so I guess they must still be in the woods, I know that you have a lot of people, as long as everyone looks together, you can definitely find these three old men!"

"You don't want to divert my attention!" The middle-aged man suddenly shouted, flew up and kicked Mu Chen's stomach, this time Mu Chen was completely defenseless, and was kicked out in an instant.

This kick was really hard enough, and he kicked Mu Chen without taking a breath for half a while, and the middle-aged man paced again to Mu Chen, and he kicked Mu Chen hard before saying: "Don't play any tricks on me, you want to lure me out and kill your people again?" I don't have the leisure to do it, hurry up, you just don't know and you have to know, I'll give you two minutes to think about it, if you really can't figure out how to open this sarcophagus, I'll kill you!"

Two minutes was completely enough, Mu Chen was secretly happy, he quietly cast a condensing qi for himself, eliminating the injuries caused by these two feet just now, but he didn't stand up directly, because he could just use this opportunity to analyze the middle-aged man's words just now.

Obviously, the people brought by the middle-aged man only formed a confrontation situation with the people in the camp, and they may have opened a gap in the woods because of this traitor, so that they were able to drive straight to the ancient tomb, and not the entire camp was wiped out by this tomb robbery gang, which was completely exciting news for Mu Chenlai, because since the people in the camp were not eliminated, then they could organize a counterattack again, so the middle-aged man actually didn't have much time for them, as long as the confrontation situation outside was broken, they were likely to not even be able to get out of this ancient tomb。
