System: Infinite Evolution into Qilin Bloodline

Panzi used an entrenching tool to push the body aside and found an old-fashioned cell phone underneath.

He picked it up and examined it, finding only a mysterious, encrypted phone number inside, with no other clues.

"Bang!"

Just then, a sound suddenly came from the left lateral ventricle.

"who is it!"

Uncle Wu turned his gun around and aimed it at the source of the sound from the side chamber.

After making a sound, there was complete silence from the other side.

Uncle Wu exchanged glances with Pan Zi and Da Kui, and then the three of them slowly approached the side chamber from three different directions.

When they got closer, they found that there was nothing there except a pile of bottles and jars.

"Third Master, look! There's a tomb robber's hole over there!"

Panzi walked around a pottery jar that was about half a person's height and found a circular hole behind it, with a lot of soil scattered on one side.

Uncle Wu picked up some dirt from the ground and rubbed it in his hands: "The dirt is still damp. The tunnel must have been just dug. It seems that not only did someone come in before us, but someone else followed right after us."

"Rumble..."

Just then, the sound of machinery turning suddenly came from the tomb.

Immediately afterwards, the jade door at the entrance closed automatically with a "bang," and a heavy stone slab fell down above it.

"Oh no, the Dragon-Slaying Stone has fallen, and we're all trapped in the tomb."

Da Kui exclaimed in surprise.

Uncle Wu slapped Da Kui on the back of the head: "What's the point of having such a brain? What's inside it? So what if the entrance is sealed? Is this tunnel just for show?"

Since the tomb raiders were able to reach this tomb chamber, it must be connected to other places.

Therefore, no one panicked when they saw the Dragon-Slaying Stone fall.

"Xiao Hao, Tianzhen, come here."

Uncle Wu beckoned Zhang Hao and Wu Tianzhen over and instructed them, "Panzi and I are going into the tomb to check the situation. You two wait here. I'll have Panzi come back and let you know if there's no danger."

After giving his instructions, he took Panzi and crawled into the tomb, gradually disappearing from sight.

About ten minutes later, Panzi's voice came from the tunnel.

"Xiao Hao, Third Master, there's no danger inside, you can come in too."

Upon hearing Pan Zi's call, Zhang Hao, Wu Tianzhen, Da Kui, and Zhang Qilin, who remained in the tomb chamber, entered the tomb robber's tunnel one after another.

Twenty minutes later, the group was still inside the tunnel when Zhang Hao noticed something was wrong.

"Panzi, did you and Third Brother go to the other end of the tunnel just now?"

"Yes, the other end of the tomb robber's tunnel leads to another tomb chamber."

"That's strange. It only took us about ten minutes to go back and forth, but it's been more than twenty minutes since we entered the tunnel and we still haven't come out."

After Zhang Hao reminded them, the others also realized that the journey, which should only take a few minutes one way, had taken them more than twenty minutes and they still hadn't finished.

"Have we encountered the Suspended Staircase again?"

Pan Zi asked uncertainly.

Zhang Hao shook his head: "Impossible. They came here to rob tombs. Why would they set up traps in the tomb to protect themselves?"

"Why is this happening? Is it like being trapped in a maze?"

Zhang Hao casually picked up a handful of soil and rubbed it in his hand. It was dry and hard, not at all like a recently dug tomb tunnel. Instead, it looked like a tomb tunnel that had existed for hundreds or even thousands of years.

"Something must have happened along the way, and the path we're on now is not the same one we took before."

"Why is this happening?"

Panzi didn't understand what had happened. It was clearly the same entrance, and there had never been any forks in the road. So why did they take the wrong path? It all made no sense.

Zhang Hao shook his head; he didn't understand what had happened either.

"What should we do then? Should we go back now?"

Although he didn't understand why, Pan Zi knew that Zhang Hao was right. The current tomb raiding tunnel was definitely not the same one that he and Uncle Wu had climbed together at the beginning.

They're stuck in the middle of the tunnel, unable to move forward or backward, and can't make up their minds.
