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

Chapter 433 Catching the Fat Man
After traveling at a brisk pace, it was almost evening when it was finally time to rest. Black Bear closed his eyes and leaned against a tree, one leg dangling down and swinging leisurely.

Wang Baichuan directed his men to set up tents and cook, while Chen Jinshui led a few men ahead to scout the way.

It was already the fourth day since they entered the mountains. Based on the hidden marks left by Wu Xie, Hei Xiazi subtly led Wang Baichuan and the others to that place, keeping track of the time.

After all, they were involved in shady dealings, and making too much of a fuss would attract attention. So they didn't bring many people this time, just their usual skilled fighters.

It was obvious to anyone with eyes that although Chen Jinshui was the leader of this group, the one who actually devised the plan was the unassuming Chen Yaxiang.

Chen Jinshui was arrogant and conceited, believing that everything was under his control. Wang Baichuan was even more brainless. This team of a dozen people had almost been completely controlled by the Chen family.

When it was time to sleep that night, after exchanging glances with Mediterranean, Black Bear built a small nest in a tree by himself and crawled into his sleeping bag early.

According to the marks left by Wu Xie, he is destined to be sleepless tonight, so he needs to hurry up and get some sleep.

Mediterranean also subtly signaled to his two subordinates, planning to lead his men away as soon as it got dark to avoid getting hurt in the fighting.

Chen Jinshui and the others were completely unaware of this. After excitedly discussing the matter, they left some people to keep watch while the rest went into their tents early.

Sure enough, under the cover of darkness, the mandrill led its monkey troop to first quietly smash the camp's lights, reducing visibility, before launching an attack on the camp.

The monkeys did not kill them, but instead deliberately drove the panicked Chen Jinshui and his companions into the dense fog of the jungle under the cover of night.

In the midst of chaos and panic, the monkeys' attacks appeared and disappeared unpredictably, and the dark thicket was filled with the sounds of monkeys moving about.

Even if they had a few hunting rifles, after firing them haphazardly, they would be knocked over by rotten wooden sticks thrown from who-knows-where. By the time they got up and started to search, the guns had already been snatched away by monkeys that had jumped down in the dark.

After only a few rounds, the group completely broke up. The young men were chased away by the monkeys. Chen Jinshui and Crazy Lao Liu, along with a few other men, fell into a pit, killed several wild snakes inside, and held out until dawn.

As the thick fog gradually dissipated, the group, covered in dust and dirt, crawled out. Upon checking each other, they discovered that almost all of their equipment was gone, and most importantly, Chen Yaxiang and Wang Baichuan had also lost their maps.

Chen Jinshui fired a signal flare into the sky to signal the troops to assemble, then began to fly into a rage, spewing profanities, "Damn it, damn it, to hell with it!"

Suddenly, a noise came from the bushes nearby. Chen Jinshui and the others immediately became alert, fearing that the monkeys had returned. Unexpectedly, the person who came out was Hei Xiazi.

Black Bear looked them over and pushed up his sunglasses. "They're all here."

Chen Jinshui hurriedly grabbed him and asked, "Where's A Xiang? Where are Wu De and Da Biao? Where the hell did they all go?"

“Everyone else has scattered. I haven’t seen them along the way I came after seeing the signal.” Hei Xiazi feigned surprise. “Oh right, I did see Chen Yaxiang and the other one. She told me that you sent them ahead to find the Longevity Kingdom.”

"What?" Chen Jinshui was furious and immediately realized what was going on. "Those two bitches, I knew they were up to no good a long time ago. They actually dared to team up and pull a fast one on me. That bitch Chen Yaxiang, I trusted her so much before. She's definitely planning to take all the treasure with her man!"

Although he was cursing, Hei Xiazi could tell that he wasn't actually in a hurry, and knew that this guy must have a backup plan.

Chen Jinshui had his own plan. Even if Chen Yaxiang and the others found the Longevity Kingdom first, so what? No matter how much she had in her pockets, she couldn't take much. He could just block the exit and rob them. After a while, Mediterranean arrived with seven or eight men and some equipment, along with an unexpected person who had been kidnapped.

"Fatty Wang?!" Chen Jinshui looked at the fat man in front of him, overjoyed. "Hahaha, well done! Where did you catch this bastard?"

Mediterranean chuckled and said, "We caught him on the way here. He probably encountered some disaster and lost contact with Wu Xie's team. He was also seriously injured. When we found him, he had already passed out from blood loss. He just woke up, and I haven't even had a chance to ask him anything."

Seeing that the fat man was covered in blood and looked like he was about to faint again, Chen Jinshui immediately had someone bandage his wounds and feed him something to keep him alive.

The fat man was woken up by the water. He was stunned to see so many people gathered around him. Then he turned his head and saw the blind man. He immediately said anxiously, "Blind man, what are you doing here? Never mind that, it's great that you're here. We're in danger in the tomb. Tianzhen is still inside. Quick, let's go and save him. It's not too late."

Hei Xiazi patted his shoulder reassuringly, "Don't rush, don't rush, calm down, tell me in detail what happened."

Just as the fat man was about to speak, he suddenly noticed Chen Jinshui standing next to him and immediately became alert, asking, "What are you doing here?"

The fat man didn't know much about the people Wu Xie was dealing with, so he didn't pay much attention to the bald man standing on the side, peeking out.

However, he had dealt with Chen Jinshui several times. Both of them had rather fiery tempers, and when they encountered things they couldn't agree on, it was inevitable that they would have disagreements.

Chen Jinshui smiled calmly and said, "What do you think? When you stumble upon an ancient tomb, it's first come, first served. Whoever gets it wins."

The fat man roared, "You son of a bitch, did you plant a spy around Tianzhen? And you bunch of guys, Crazy Six, Baldy Li, you two actually got involved with this Chen bastard too, ugh, a bunch of traitorous dogs, shameless bastards."

Then, realizing something, he exclaimed, "Are you trying to rebel while Young Master is away? You're all utterly lawless!"

Chen Jinshui chuckled coldly, "It's all Wu Xie's fault for being too stupid and too trusting. He can't blame anyone else."

The fat man angrily cursed him, saying he was a son of a bitch who took advantage of someone in distress and deserved to die a horrible death. Chen Jinshui impatiently waved his hand, and a waiter next to him understood and immediately stepped forward, raising his hand as if to slap the fat man across the face.

"What are you doing?" The fat man glared at him, his eyes wide with anger, showing no fear whatsoever. "You little brat, if you dare lay a finger on me today, you'll be burning paper money for my head tomorrow. You'll see if you don't believe me."

Hei Xiazi quickly tried to smooth things over, saying, "Alright, alright, stop arguing. Fatty, what happened to Wu Xie? Why did you come out alone? Where are the others?"

The fat man glanced at Chen Jinshui, and seeing that Hei Xiazi nodded, he reluctantly began to briefly recount the whole story.

After overcoming numerous difficulties and dangers, they finally entered the ancient tomb. Their first priority was to find the main burial chamber. The bronze coffin was right in front of them, but just as they were about to get close, they accidentally triggered a mechanism, and a bronze mirror on the side of the coffin fell down.

Before they could react, the lid of the bronze coffin suddenly popped open, revealing a pool of foul-smelling blood and a pungent odor of poison.

As soon as they put on their gas masks, they saw a green-haired creature with two heads and four arms suddenly sit up in the water, dressed in fine clothes, making it impossible to tell whether it was male or female.

What terrified them most was that the rice dumpling actually had a snake's tail.
