Taking a deep breath, my bones crackled all over my body, and I felt my pupils shift, my vision turned blue, and I could catch some light even in the darkness - or more appropriately, radiation, my senses were sensitive enough to sense heat, like a snake.

The skin of my whole body began to change, it was cold and hard like a layer of frost, and there were more black spots on the blue skin.

At the same time, sharp claws popped out between the joints of my hands, which were ten centimeters long.

I was sure that Zongzi sensed me at the same time as I transformed, but as I expected, it didn't attack me. It has judged me to be non-human.

I walked as carefully as I could to the sarcophagus, and quickly glanced inside, and oh, I'm rich!

The inner walls of the sarcophagus were inlaid with dense shells, and the bottom of the sarcophagus was also scattered with a few shells, but they were all golden, and I quickly grabbed a handful and stuffed them into my pocket. That's a lot of money. Golden shells, shells made of gold, Baidu Encyclopedia can not be found (laughs), a currency circulated by the upper-class nobles of Chu during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, with the late Han Dynasty gold gradually withdrawing from the field of currency circulation and only being used as decorations, not to mention taking it to sell, collecting it yourself and waiting for the price of gold to rise in the future, and you can make a lot of money by taking it to recast.

In addition to the golden shells, there are a large number of jade walls at the bottom of the sarcophagus, rusty bronze ritual vessels, the most surprising thing to me is that there is a bronze sacred tree, only more than 20 centimeters long, the workmanship, the shape and the bronze tree unearthed in Sanxingdui are very similar, it is simply a mini version of it.

Of course, I stuffed it into the diving bag as usual, and I still kept the jade wall or something.

At this moment, my eyes were fixed on one of the items in the jade—a bamboo slip, very well preserved, and almost undamaged. I gently opened the bamboo slips, quickly browsed the past, and said in my heart that it was really amazing, this can be said to be a brief biography, the owner of this sarcophagus is named Guangchuan Wang Liu Qu, is the great-grandson of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, and often robs tombs in the fief. However, on the bamboo slips, it is only briefly written that there is a tomb where King Guangchuan went—perhaps not a tomb, because it is at my feet—the tomb of Kaichao Guhuang (1).

This is the name of this dungeon.

I was taken aback when I saw this, I know a little about this king of Guangchuan, he was assigned to Jing Barbarian for many bad acts such as stealing ancient tombs and indiscriminately killing his followers, and committed suicide on the way to the distribution.

It seems that he is quite cunning, and the tomb robbers are also afraid that their tombs will be stolen, so they simply repair their tombs in the places they have already visited.

However, the content of the bamboo slip only records that the king of Guangchuan stole and excavated the tomb of Kaichao Guhuang, but did not write who it was, and it seems that even the king of Guangchuan himself did not know, and the bamboo slip said that he did not even find the coffin of the tomb owner. The tomb was already located on the beach when it was excavated, and probably a long time ago it was only on the edge of the beach, and it was given the name "tide" because the tide could be clearly seen.

Gently put the bamboo slip back, and in my perception the zongzi was motionless, like a telephone pole.

I was suddenly stunned, and a phrase quickly popped up in my mind - "People light lamps, ghosts blow out lamps." "This is the rule of Captain Jin, that is, before opening the coffin and taking things, a candle should be lit in the southeast corner of the tomb, if the candle is extinguished, it means that something is not good, and you can run as fast as you can.

I don't remember which friend said this sentence, but it is certainly not a trick to become a rule that has been passed down for hundreds of years by the Gold Touching School.

I didn't have a candle at hand, so I took out a lighter and lit it, and then walked to the southeast corner - in fact, I just had the mentality of giving it a try, Chen Lei and Bei Xixi were still nowhere to be found, and they didn't know where the hidden secret passage was, and there was no trace of Chen Lei's uncle's tomb.

I am a person who values friendship very much, and I will do my best to do my friend's business, otherwise Chen Lei will not go even if he parks a Bugatti Veyron in Wanda. But from another point of view, my friend's help must be helped, and it won't be my fault if I succeed or not, I just do what I can, and I will never do my best. I don't believe that anyone who can't save their own lives will be able to help others. I'm also the one who wants to die.

Suddenly, a creepy wind blew, and the flame of the lighter went out.

As soon as the flames were extinguished, the masonry above my head suddenly shook violently, followed by a loud bang, countless stones fell, and a huge black shadow fell heavily to the ground.

This guy is more than two meters tall, and when he moves, his whole body makes a sound of metal colliding, as if he is wearing some kind of armor. And the rice dumplings in armor? I laughed in my heart, but cold sweat was already breaking out on my forehead, and my tight calves trembled a little.

The air flow around me suddenly accelerated, and I didn't have to look at me to know that the other party had attacked, and my bent legs quickly exploded with great force, and I jumped onto the wall next to me, running at a gravitational blister, and then suddenly leaped, my claws gripped the edge of the hole. As soon as I pressed my waist, my body jumped up.

It's my rule to try to avoid fighting all unknown creatures, and that's what I learned in Mexico. Hunters never spend time on useless targets, they always only carry enough ammunition to kill them.

The moment I jumped up, I quickly twisted my body with extraordinary reaction speed, the bowstring trembled, and an arrow hit the zongzi that crawled out of the sarcophagus. The arrow is equipped with a micro-generator.

In an instant, the lightning was shining, the fire arc jumped, and Zongzi's body trembled violently.

My goal was certainly not to kill it, otherwise I would have been able to shoot this arrow when it crawled out of the sarcophagus. The instantaneous heat brought by the discharge attracted the attention of the armored zongzi, and it quickly pounced on the sarcophagus zongzi, and I felt that it stiffened the moment it touched the sarcophagus zongzi.

This was a good opportunity, and I shot three more normal arrows at the armored rice dumplings, and the arrows seemed to rub against some metal.

The dumplings below won't come up for a while, and probably won't come up either, and the top of the burial chamber is at least five or six meters above the ground. My body returned to its normal state, and my observation of my surroundings turned dark again - it was troublesome, and I couldn't explore my surroundings without sound in a normal state. However, this also proves that there is really no danger in the upper layer, at least there are no zongzi.

But I soon realized that I was wrong in my thinking - no sound doesn't mean no rice dumplings.

The flashlight turned on, the lights swept around, and I suddenly gasped.
