Tomb Raider: Evolution of the Red Dragon, Starting from the Ancient City of Jingjue

With the lights from the two rooms, the shape of the coffin became clearly visible.

The coffin was not made of wooden planks, but had some simple patterns on it.

However, these patterns are by no means plain; they look very expensive, and it is clear at a glance that this person is of high status.

"This pattern is at least a little less prestigious than the emperor's."

Jiang Hua touched his chin and couldn't help but speculate.

Upon hearing Jiang Hua's words, Qin Feng and Yun, who were standing nearby, immediately had their eyes light up as if they had seen a gold mine, staring intently at the coffin in front of them.

"Isn't this like finding a treasure? If there really is a treasure, I'll definitely use this money to treat myself to a nice meal. You won't stop me, will you?"

Qin Feng then turned to Jiang Hua beside him and said.

Seeing that Qin Feng was already thinking about what kind of life he should live after getting the money, Jiang Hua couldn't help but roll her eyes, expressing her disdain for Qin Feng.

Seeing that Jiang Hua disliked him, Qin Feng didn't mind at all. He just chuckled and waited for the fire to die down.

The fire has finally subsided considerably.

Without supplies, these agencies could no longer act arrogantly.

At this moment, Jiang Hua also had the idea of ​​going into the room, but she still didn't dare to step in.

Feeling that there was more to this room than met the eye, Jiang Hua once again pulled a tinderbox from his pocket.

"Let me check if there's enough oxygen inside."

As he spoke, Jiang Hua directly inserted the tinder into the flame, but the flame gradually dimmed after a short while.

It was obvious that the yang energy inside was insufficient, and this phenomenon made Qin Feng and Yun frown.

They certainly have plenty of oxygen here, but why is there less oxygen in this room?

Moreover, they are well aware that there is a huge opening here, allowing air to flow back in.

Logically, this room should be filled with enough oxygen.

At this moment, Jiang Hua couldn't help but frown and began to observe the room.

Jiang Hua lit the tinder again and inserted it into the fire once more, this time starting to calculate in his mind.

"Based on the fire extinguishing power of this tinderbox, we can only stay inside for ten seconds. If we don't come out within ten seconds, we are very likely to die inside due to excessive carbon dioxide inhalation."

Jiang Hua's guess made Qin Feng and Yun feel a little scared.

"It seems the wisdom of the ancients is truly frightening. There's so much carbon dioxide inside! Even modern people wouldn't have thought of filling a room with so much carbon dioxide. And how exactly did they manage to do that?"

Qin Feng scratched his head, looking at Jiang Hua with a bewildered expression.

Jiang Hua is also unable to answer this question, because based on the layout of the room, he cannot deduce anything.

Because this room really looked just like the rooms they usually stayed in.

In terms of structure, there's nothing particularly special about it. The only slightly odd thing is the mechanisms on the side.

"Could it be because of these agencies?"

Jiang Hua stroked his chin and said with some doubt.

However, Jiang Hua observed for a long time but couldn't figure it out, so he chose to give up, since their goal was the treasure inside the coffin.

Based on the mechanism next to it, Jiang Hua could guess that there must be many good things inside the coffin.

Otherwise, there would be no need to set up so many mechanisms, especially since these mechanisms are made of the finest wood. Wouldn't it be a waste to use such good wood if it were just an ordinary official?

"The only difficulty now is that we can only go in for ten seconds, but ten seconds is too short for us, so we have to open up the room and make the oxygen flow back in the room so that we can stay in the room longer."

After glancing around the room, Jiang Hua clenched his fist again. Qin Feng and Yun, who were standing next to him, immediately understood what Jiang Hua meant.

Jiang Hua was determined to break through the wall, so they cheered him on from the sidelines.

Hearing Qin Feng and the others cheering for them, Jiang Hua couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth to express her disdain for them.

With a slight sway, the wall swayed and the wall collapsed to the ground. Qin Feng and Yun, who were standing nearby, immediately clapped for Jiang Hua like two little fans.

Jiang Hua returned to the room where the mechanism was located.

This time, Jiang Hua knocked on the wall again and found that the thickness of the walls was indeed completely different from that of the outer walls. The thickness of the inner walls was at least half a meter.

Moreover, the materials used to build this structure are completely different from those used outside, which makes Jiang Hua wonder if this was a deliberate attempt to lure them here.

Otherwise, how could the outer wall be so thin while the inner wall is so thick? So Jiang Hua couldn't help but stand there and start thinking.

After seeing Jiang Hua standing there in a daze, Qin Feng and Yun couldn't help but wonder and quickly went to Jiang Hua's side.

"What's wrong?"

Qin Feng knocked on the wall.

"This wall is so thick! How come it's completely different from the walls outside?"

Qin Feng turned his head to look at Jiang Hua beside him.

"I think what we just saw was just a trick to lure us in. It might be a smokescreen. The real thing might not be this. There might indeed be a corpse and treasures inside the coffin, but the true owner might not be the one we just saw."

After thinking for a while, Jiang Hua could only come up with this explanation; otherwise, how could the outer wall be so thin?
Qin Feng and Yun exchanged a glance after hearing what Jiang Hua said.

"If what you're saying is true, Jiang Hua, then where should the real one be?"

"Where there's a ventilation opening, there's bound to be one. You see, we haven't seen any ventilation openings yet, which means the location of the ventilation opening is very well hidden, and that means it's the room where the real coffin is placed."

As Jiang Hua spoke, he returned to the room where the coffin was placed, and at this moment, Jiang Hua took out the tinderbox again.

This time, the tinderbox didn't dim as quickly as it had at the beginning.

Does this mean there's plenty of oxygen inside?

Qin Feng was still a little unsure, so he asked Jiang Hua.

After glancing at the tinderbox in his hand, Jiang Hua finally nodded.

If it really was just a lure to trick tomb raiders, then there shouldn't be any other traps placed here.

The main purpose of this decoy is to prevent tomb raiders from discovering the real coffin, thus avoiding the discovery of the owner by others.

"It should be about time. If I'm not mistaken, there should still be treasure inside this coffin."

Jiang Hua walked straight in as he spoke, while Qin Feng and Yun, who were standing next to him, were on tenterhooks as they watched him go in. But when they saw that Jiang Hua was safe and sound, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"There shouldn't be any problems, but you can come in later."

If Jiang Hua were alone, she could protect herself.

If Qin Feng and Yun were added, Jiang Hua wouldn't be able to spare the energy to protect them.

After all, there were still too many unknowns here. Jiang Hua approached the coffin, carefully examining the surroundings and not daring to touch anything else. (End of Chapter)
