Tomb Raiding: My Family's Last Clan Chief is Little Brother

Chapter 121 Signal Link
Wu Xiaoxie suddenly shouted, startling everyone and making them tense.

"What's wrong with Third Master?" Pan Zi asked anxiously, pulling Wu Xiaoxie up and down to look him over but not seeing anything amiss, which made him even more anxious.

"Wait, wait." Wu Xiaoxie clutched his chest and gestured for everyone to form a circle around him to shield him from the wind. "I feel something moving in my chest."

The fat man moved closer, letting out a strange cry, "Oh no, could it be that the cold weather has frozen your little heart out?"

These words immediately eased the tense atmosphere considerably.

Wu Xiaoxie glanced at the fat man speechlessly, "Let me take it out first."

As he spoke, he unbuttoned his shirt, pulled down the zipper, reached inside quickly, and rummaged around in, not bothering to look closely before straightening his clothes.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Wu Xiaoxie opened his palm, revealing a black, unidentified object the size of an egg lying in his hand, which was vibrating slightly and emitting a "tick-tock" alarm sound.

While everyone was still in a daze, Shunzi had already reacted, snatched the thing from Wu Xiaoxie's hand, and ran a few steps in one direction. The others quickly followed.

"There's hope! There's hope!" Shunzi muttered, his hands trembling with excitement.

The little black thing made two "tick-tock" sounds, and a mechanical female voice came out.

"Tick-tock... Terminal signal detected... Signal connection in progress... Connection complete!"

"Your current location is 2.74 km from the terminal signal. Voice navigation will now begin. Proceed northwest from your current location..."

"Holy crap, Tianzhen, when did you get this thing?" the fat man exclaimed, snatching it and examining it closely. "What did it just say? Northwest direction. Is this really what the wooden fish left for you? Is it accurate?"

Wu Xiaoxie was also confused. Mu Yu hadn't explained this in detail in the letter, only briefly mentioning that he had left something for him, without specifying how to use it.

Shunzi spoke up at this moment, "When that boss surnamed Yu gave me this thing, he said he would wait for us at the hot spring. He was able to stay in the snow mountain for more than half a month, so he must have found the hot spring. As long as we follow the signal device's instructions, we will definitely find the hot spring." Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions were different.

Chen Pi Asi's sharp eyes swept over Wu Xiaoxie and Shunzi, his expression somewhat meaningful.

The fat man squeezed his way in, blocking Chen Pi Asi's view, and called to Wu Xiaoxie and the others, "What are we waiting for? Hurry up, let's go find the hot spring. When Fatty sees that brat Muyu, he's going to give him a good kick in the butt!"

The group regained their fighting spirit and headed in the direction indicated by the signal device. If they deviated from the route, the signal device would emit a warning sound.

The northwest wind blows all year round on Changbai Mountain. Braving the raging wind and snow, the goggles are covered with a thick layer of frost, making the vision blurry. You can't see anyone in front or behind you. You can only rely on the climbing rope tied around your waist to determine the direction of progress.

As Wu Xiaoxie walked, a dark shadow suddenly appeared in front of him. His heart skipped a beat, and before his brain could react, his body had already lunged forward. His forehead bumped into something with a "bang," and the dark shadow in front of him was sent flying half a meter away. Wu Xiaoxie himself managed to stop himself.

I pulled my leg out of the deep snow and kicked it twice gently. Hmm? It seems to be a person?
"broken!"

Wu Xiaoxie thought to himself, "Could it be that someone in front of me couldn't hold on and got frozen solid?"
He bent down with difficulty, groped for the head of the fallen man, peeked through a crack in his goggles, and exclaimed, "Shunzi!"

Holy crap! Isn't this guy a seasoned mountain guide? Old man Chen Pi Asi hasn't even fainted yet, but he's the one who's fainted first.

Saving lives was the priority, so Wu Xiaoxie didn't have time to complain and hurriedly tried to help the person up first.

The guy following behind him caught up and helped Shunzi up, carrying him on his back.

The people who were lagging behind caught up one after another. The fat man who was leading the way with the signal device noticed something was wrong behind him and turned back. He saw Shunzi, who had fainted on the young man's back, with a constipated expression on his face. It was obvious that he wanted to curse, but he had to hold it in for fear of the wind blowing his throat. His face was almost contorted.

Everyone looked terrible. Chen Pi Asi's wrinkled face was deathly pale, and his expression was dazed. He was being supported by Hua Heshang and had fallen into a semi-comatose state. In such extreme conditions, it was a miracle that a man in his nineties could hold on for so long.
