Chapter 147: Grave Robbers' Chronicles Qi Yu 29
In the cramped space at the top, the light was dim and dust was flying. Wu Xie, Zhang Qiling and Fatty Wang stared with wide eyes, nervously searching every corner.
Suddenly, their eyes were attracted by a stone wall.
There were a few lines of handwriting engraved on it: "Wu Sanxing harmed me", and the signature was actually "Jie Lianhuan".
Zhang Qiling's eyes lit up and he asked in a puzzled voice.
"Evidence of Wu Sanxing's murder?"
Before he could finish his words, he noticed that Wu Xie beside him had turned pale as paper, his lips were tightly closed, and he couldn't utter a word.
Because they all knew that Jie Lianhuan was the person who died on the beach.
Some fragments flashed through Zhang Qiling's mind quickly. He recalled that Jie Lianhuan was not a formal member of the archaeological team back then, but joined temporarily at the request of a foreigner named Jude Kao.
This discovery made the already confusing situation even more complicated.
The three of them looked at each other silently, and a strong sense of uneasiness surged in their hearts.
However, they now have no choice but to move on and explore this unknown territory.
The space at the top is extremely narrow, with rocks piled up everywhere, making it very difficult to walk.
They stepped over the stones carefully, sometimes bending over and leaning sideways, sometimes using their hands and feet, and were exhausted and panting and sweating.
Fatty Wang asked, frowning.
"Are we going the wrong way?"
Wu Xie was also puzzled and speculated secretly.
"Could it be that the path I chose just now really wasn't the path to life? Could it be that the path to life indicated on the stone tablet has been tampered with by someone?"
At this moment, Zhang Qiling, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke.
I saw that his eyes were deep and he was analyzing thoughtfully.
"It is very likely that Xie Lianhuan and Wu Sanxing worked together and sneaked into this underwater tomb in advance without telling other archaeological team members. After Wu Sanxing surveyed the terrain, he imprisoned Xie Lianhuan alone in this tomb chamber for unknown reasons."
"In desperation, Xie Lianhuan had to carve a blood letter on the stone wall to ask for help, but he unexpectedly discovered that the wall was actually hollow. So he took this opportunity to dig a tunnel and successfully escaped."
"Unfortunately, fate has been cruel to them, and they still cannot escape death in the end - either they die tragically on the beach as we have seen before, or they die from the exhaustion of oxygen in their oxygen tanks."
"No! I absolutely don't believe that my Third Uncle would harm anyone! There must be some misunderstanding here. I must investigate this matter thoroughly!"
Wu Xie clenched his fists tightly, trying to calm himself down from the shock and confusion.
All the evidence before him seemed to point the finger at his third uncle mercilessly, but he believed that his third uncle would never harm his companions.
At this moment, Xie Yuchen, who was following them silently, stared at the clues that were clearly in front of everyone, but he still firmly believed in his own judgment in his heart - his uncle Xie Lianhuan was definitely not dead.
"Don't be too sad, Xiaohua brother."
Qi Yu said softly, trying to comfort Xie Yuchen who had a sad face.
"Actually, he is not dead, but there are some things I cannot tell you right now. But what is certain is that this matter is indeed related to my godfather."
Hearing this, Xie Yuchen suddenly raised his head, his eyes full of confusion and surprise.
He always wanted to know more about Jie Lianhuan, but the meaning of Qi Yu's words was very clear. She knew the inside story, which made him curious.
"How do you know so much?"
Xie Yuchen couldn't help but blurt out, with a hint of urgency in his voice.
This question has been buried in his heart for a long time, and now he finally found an opportunity to get an answer.
Qi Yu blinked mischievously, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"Hehe, don't you know? I, your sister, can tell everything in the world just by counting with my fingers!"
Seeing Qi Yu treating him so perfunctorily, Xie Yuchen was speechless, but he believed what Qi Yu said, that she was indeed good at calculating.
Suddenly he thought of something and continued.
"Xiao Yu'er, I think I need to target Wu Xie for a while."
"It is necessary, but you have to strike a balance. He tends to get stuck in a rut."
Qi Yu and Jie Yuchen were chatting casually.
Wu Xie and others in front were still moving forward.
"As for the past, only the parties involved know what happened. Instead of guessing, we should think about how to rescue Mr. Wu San."
Fatty Wang's words brought back the rationality of Wu Xie and Zhang Qiling. They stopped dwelling on the past and started looking for a way out.
Suddenly, Fatty Wang felt an unbearable itch.
Upon seeing this, Wu Xie hurriedly lifted up his clothes, and the scene before him was shocking - Fatty Wang's back was red, as if it had been burned by fire.
"Could it be that when we were hit by the arrow just now, Fatty had already been hit?" Wu Xie thought to himself.
Seeing Fatty Wang in so much pain, Wu Xie tried to comfort him, but Fatty Wang had been tortured to the point of being unable to speak.
However, Wu Xie did not panic, but instead started to joke.
"Hey, Fatty, do you want me to apply some toner on you? Maybe it can relieve the itching!"
After saying that, he really took out a small bottle from his bag and gently smeared the liquid inside on Fatty Wang's back.
Something unexpected happened. The bottle of mysterious liquid seemed to have magical effects. As soon as it touched Fatty Wang's skin, the itching stopped immediately.
Fatty Wang breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Wu Xie with gratitude.
"God damn it, this thing of yours really saved my life!"
Wu Xie chuckled, patted Fatty Wang on the shoulder and said.
"I told you, this bottle of my precious toner always comes in handy at critical moments!"
The three continued to grope their way forward in the tunnel, but soon they stopped again.
Wu Xie suddenly felt a wetness on the back of his neck, which seemed to be accompanied by a faint fragrance.
He subconsciously reached out to touch it and actually grabbed a handful of black stuff.
In panic, he threw the strange object against the wall.
However, something unexpected happened. After hitting the wall, the black thing suddenly expanded as if it had life.
In the blink of an eye, a strange-looking woman suddenly appeared in front of Wu Xie, Zhang Qiling and Fatty Wang.
This woman exuded a mysterious and strange aura, and her body tightly wrapped around Wu Xie like a soft and boneless water snake.
What's even more creepy is that she actually tried to stick out her tongue to have intimate contact with Wu Xie.
At the critical moment, Zhang Qiling quickly picked up the flashlight and shone it at the woman. A dazzling light flashed, and Wu Xie immediately regained consciousness.
He couldn't help but wonder if everything he had just seen was just an illusion?
But deep down in his heart he told him that this was no illusion.
As soon as Fatty Wang turned around, Wu Xie was horrified to find that the woman was clinging to Fatty's back like a ghost.
The three men had no time to think and immediately started a fierce fight with the mysterious woman.
After a hard fight, they finally succeeded in driving them back with fire.
Zhang Qiling seemed to have thought of something and said in a deep voice.
"That thing just now is most likely a Jinpo, a jellyfish that looks like hair. Once hit by it, people will fall into hallucinations."
At this moment, the three of them just noticed that the talisman paper they were wearing had quietly turned into ashes without knowing when.
"This place is too weird. Everyone, hurry up and put up the talisman paper to save your life first."
As Fatty Wang spoke, he took out some talisman papers and put them in his coat pocket.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Qiling and Wu Xie hurriedly armed themselves with talisman paper.
