Chapter 138: Millennium Tomb

"Hmph, do you think you're still qualified to negotiate terms with me?" Zhou Jinping narrowed his eyes and raised the gun in his hand to Ye Yu with some amusement. "Lao Tzu has the means to let you recruit!"

"I don't doubt that, but do you still have time for that?" Ye Yu calmly looked at the man opposite. "Don't forget, you've hurt someone in the hospital, and these acts will soon be exposed, maybe there's a large police officer looking for you outside, maybe you'll find this place soon......"

β€œβ€¦β€¦οΌβ€ A moment of hesitation flashed on Zhou Jinping's face, and Ye Yu, who had captured this, immediately began to chase after the victory.

"You've already been wounded, and you're no match for the hordes of cops, and once you're a prisoner, what chance do you have of recovering those Blood Keystones that you've been thinking about?" Ye Yu looked at Zhou Jinping's expression, and his words pierced the other party's weakness.

"You're ......!"

Ye Yu's words obviously made Zhou Shenping have some scruples, and after being silent for a long time, Zhou Shiping chuckled lightly and finally put down the pistol.

"Boy, why do you want to know this?" Zhou Jinping asked at Ye Yu.

"For the sake of ...... Looking for some answers. Ye Yu thought for a while, and only replied vaguely. I'm curious, how did you find those seven Blood Keystones in that ancient tomb back then, and what was the situation inside that thousand-year-old tomb, none of these information has been recorded in writing......"

"Hmph, even if there is a record, you will never have a chance to see it." Zhou Jinping raised the corners of his mouth, seemingly quite proud. "In fact, this country is very taboo about the situation of this Loulan tomb, and only some inconsequential information is disclosed to the outside world, and the people who know its real core secrets are probably not counted in this world, and I ...... It's one of them. ”

"Real ...... The core secret? ”

"Hmph, do you know why the Loulan Tomb is so huge, but there are very few antiques excavated?" Zhou Jinping looked at Ye Yu and threw out a question.

"That's for the sake of tomb preservation, of course. Isn't it? Ye Yu replied without thinking.

"Oh, naΓ―ve." Zhou Jinping had a disdainful expression on his face. "You know, with today's state-level technology, it is not difficult to dig up that place without damaging the ancient tomb, and besides, such a magical treasure as the Blood Keystone has been discovered, do you think those people in the government will not think of taking out some other treasures from the tomb?"

"This ......," Ye Yu said.

"It's not that they can't, it's that they don't dare." Zhou Jinping's eyes focused on the void, and an imperceptible fear flashed on his face, as if he remembered something not very good.

"Because that thousand-year-old tomb is very evil...... It's not an exaggeration to call it a "ghost tomb"! ”

"Ghost ...... Ghost Tomb?! Ye Yu was dumbfounded. What does that mean? ”

"It means that a few people will die, and that ancient tomb will ...... Cursed! Zhou Shiping came back to his senses. He stared at Ye Yu again with bloodshot eyes. "Let me tell you the truth, the few unearthed antiques that are circulating on the market now are still brought out by Lao Tzu back then, and whether it is the people from the government or the underworld, they all died in the tomb, and none of them have come out!"

"What?! This...... This is simply unheard of! Ye Yu was shocked.

"The government at that time folded a large number of archaeologists in that tomb, and this kind of major scandal has long been blocked by information, how can it be known to the outside world?" Zhou Jinping seemed to scoff at Ye Yu's amazement.

"That tomb is a bottomless labyrinth. Not only do you encounter mechanisms at every turn, but the structure of the entire tomb is completely irregular, and people can be trapped in it just by exploring the path! Lao Tzu brought more than a dozen good men to the tomb back then, and the result? Almost all dead! There's no going in or out! ”

"Wait. You say, 'In and out'? But didn't you come out in a good way......? Ye Yuqiang calmed down and opened his mouth to question.

"Hehehe, am I ......" Zhou Shiping snorted coldly, and his voice suddenly lowered. In the dim and unknown light, Ye Yu only saw his mouth gradually opening and smiling gloomily at himself.

"You think. Am I 'good'? β€œ

"You...... What do you mean......" Ye Yu stared at the man standing in front of him, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

Maybe it was the dim light around him, or maybe it was the rendering of this terrifying environment full of faint rancid smell and formalin, Zhou Jinping in Ye Yu's eyes seemed to be smiling extremely unnaturally, and the whole person revealed an indescribable weirdness.

The sallow and thin face makes Zhou Jinping show a color of aging that is seriously inconsistent with his actual age, and what is even more creepy is the lifeless yin qi exuded from his body, feeling that his divine sense seems to be barely supported by a ruthless force, just like a soulless dry corpse, a walking corpse driven by greed and persistence.

And this walking corpse, at this time, was looking at himself fixedly with a strange look, and his hoarse and cold voice with a terrifying word came faintly.

"Actually, back then...... I'm dead. ”――

β€œβ€¦β€¦ yes, I see, thank you. ”

The man looked at the female assistant in front of him and smiled gently.

"Should...... You're welcome! It's an honor to work for you. The female assistant's face turned red all of a sudden, she didn't dare to meet the man's gaze, she was a little happy, and she said a little crampedly. Because the situation is more important, I was afraid that I couldn't tell you clearly on the phone, so I reported it to you in person...... I...... I didn't bother you, did I? ”

"Where, it's serious." The man reached out and pushed his delicate rimless glasses, his voice as gentle as water. "Very important news, thank you for coming and telling me."

The female assistant raised her head hesitantly, and was meeting the man's smile like a spring breeze. The tall posture and handsome face made the man's whole person reveal a unique elegance and mature temperament, and the female assistant seemed to be completely drunk with the man's extremely attractive temperament, and she was stunned for a while, unable to speak.

"If there's nothing else to do, go ahead and don't delay your work." The man's gentle words finally pulled the female assistant out of her fantasy, and the latter hurriedly apologized again and again, then turned her head and quickly "fled" the office.

"Oh, ah~ It's really worthy of our 'Zhu' adult, just laugh casually and you can easily make the girl fall under your trousers, tsk, it's too enviable~ How many are these?"

A mocking male voice rang out from the office couch next to him, and a young man in a punk costume was leaning on the expensive sofa with his legs crossed, immersed in the world of the game console in his hand without squinting.

"Looks like I'm going to have to change another assistant." The smile as warm as the spring breeze disappeared in an instant, and the face of the man known as "Zhen" was full of indifference. "I want elites who can work, people who don't even have basic concentration, and they are not qualified to work beside me."

"It's really ruthless, you~ People are loyal to you, so they just drove people away so casually." The "punk youth" on the couch still hasn't taken his eyes off the console.

"When it comes to ruthlessness, I'm no match for you, and I can be indifferent when I hear that kind of news." The man took off his glasses and wiped them calmly. "That woman has been your partner no matter what she says, hasn't she...... Our Pleiades? ”

"Tsk...... Damn it! It's almost ......!! The punk youth looked annoyed and reached out to toss aside the console that said "GameOver" on the screen, only then did he raise his head and look at the man in glasses with some impatience. "What the hell are you trying to say?"

"Hehe, I thought you'd find a way to help her." The man in glasses had that kind smile on his face again, but the punk youth seemed to be completely dismissive of it.

"Everyone has a life, and no one can take responsibility for her own actions." The punk youth lay on his back on the couch and said as he played with the skull ring on his finger. "Besides, the matter has come to this point, and no one can help her anymore, our organization is not a fuel-efficient lamp, you should know this best."

"That being said, there is still some necessary work to be done." The man put his glasses back on and carefully removed something from his bosom.

I saw a blood-red ruby ring appear on the right hand of the man with glasses, and the surface of the gem was overflowing with a wonderful colorful light, even if it was just a glance, it was difficult to take people off their eyes.

"I'll borrow something for two days, you're okay, right?" The man in glasses puts on his ring and looks at the punk youth on the couch.

"The top has agreed, what can I say?" The punk youth said indifferently, lying on the couch and closing his eyes.

The man in glasses shook his head with a smile, then put on his coat and prepared to go out, when suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he stopped and looked at the punk youth again.

"Oh yes, I heard about the 'Destroyer'...... It was the man named Ye Yu who seemed to be involved in this matter. ”

"Oh, yes." The punk youth continued to close his eyes and replied coldly.

"You...... It seems that you still get along with him in the Zheng family's villa, right? I heard you admired his ......," the man in glasses narrowed his eyes and said to the punk youth. "Would you like to go over and have a look?"

"No, no."

The punk youth spat out two words dryly, then turned over, ignoring the man in glasses.

The man in glasses looked at the punk youth and smiled softly, the meaning in his eyes was unclear.

However, he didn't pause too much, and after finishing his dress, the man in glasses left the punk youth on the couch and left the office alone. (To be continued.) )
