Tomb raiding: following the plot while tearing up the script

Black Bear clutched a small handkerchief in his hand and stamped his foot dramatically. "Oh dear, Brother Ali is so biased! He only gives the pretty little sister the good things. Poor me, all my sincere feelings… have been misplaced!"

The way that voice twisted and turned was incredibly dramatic, brimming with sorrow.

Su Li: ...yue...what kind of filth is this that's so offensive to the eyes? Can you please get rid of it? Please.

Before Su Li could respond, Xie Yuchen, unable to bear it any longer, threw a cup of tea at her. The way he did it was more like throwing black dog blood to exorcise evil spirits than water.

I don't even want to talk about him, he's embarrassing...

Black Bear nimbly dodged the tea that was splashed at him, then kicked at Su Li, scaring the child into running all over the yard...

In the end, it turned into Su Li running ahead while Hei Xiazi chased after her.

Hei Xiazi would occasionally utter a few nasty, clip-like sounds to annoy the people present.

Then Xie Yuchen would occasionally trip up Hei Xiazi.

Zhang Qiling sat not far away, watching them make a fuss with a gentle expression.

Huo Xiuxiu covered her mouth and couldn't stop laughing.

Finally, Uncle Wen came in to report that the meal was ready and asked if they wanted to come in and set the table. Only then did Zhang Qiling take one in each hand and carry them to the dining room.

After all that commotion, everyone ate their dinner with exceptional relish, and the atmosphere was incredibly harmonious.

……

The next morning, after contacting Qin Ye, Hei Xiazi and Su Li set off with a few men towards the military base near Banna. After a three-day and two-night journey, the trail of followers along the way was wiped out after passing through numerous checkpoints.

The person in charge of the base had been notified long ago and was waiting at the base entrance early.

The officers who are in charge of managing a base are all high-ranking reserve officers and have a clear understanding of the importance of Zurich.

They don't ask many questions or say much; they are polite and considerate while always being responsive to requests.

Supplies and weapons have been thoughtfully prepared. You say private ownership of firepower is not allowed? How is it private? These are national treasure-level 'experts,' isn't it normal for them to have their firepower protected?

The men who came along were also dealing with so many officials for the first time. In their profession, they had never seen such a scene when they were arrested.

One by one, they forced themselves to remain calm despite their trembling.

My family members, who would understand? I never thought I'd be receiving weapons from the authorities. This is truly an unprecedented event.

The men carrying supplies followed Hei Xiazi and Su Li from the base, crossed two mountains, and entered the territory of Banna Yangjiao Mountain.

We don't know exactly how wide Zhang Tata's range of activity is, so it won't be easy to lead them on the road ahead.

Several men set up camp on the spot and waited for reinforcements.

Hei Xiazi and Su Li then made their way towards the entrance of the ancient building, based on the approximate location given by Zhang Qiling.

Zurich's wood spirit root works in the mountains and forests, avoiding most animals based on the feedback from the plants and trees, and also clearing away traces of its movement in the mountains and forests.

Zhang Tata can tame lynxes, but that doesn't mean he can only tame lynxes. Although he's not afraid of him, now is not the time to alarm him.

With the general location and hidden landmarks provided by Zhang Qiling, the entrance is easy to find.

Holding a powerful flashlight, we entered the mountain. As we walked, we could feel a significant change in the mountain's material composition, and the temperature dropped considerably.

At this temperature, the human body's temperature acts like an indicator light, guiding Miluotu as it traverses the mountainside.

“Blind man, give me your hand,” Su Li suddenly said.

Black Bear didn't understand, but he obediently did as he was told, while making some flirtatious remarks. "Little Ali, are you scared? It's okay, the blind man will lead you. If you're scared, just hide behind the blind man."

Su Li patted his hand, then reached out and grabbed his wrist, gently tapping the jade pendant on his bracelet a few times as if knocking on a door.

"Miss Baoyun, could you please do me a favor and lend me some yin energy?"

Although Baoyun is still recuperating, her mind has recovered a lot and she can communicate normally without any problems. With the blessing of the jade pendant, releasing some yin energy has no effect on her.

Not long after Su Li finished asking the question, wisps of yin energy drifted out. As he made hand seals and waved them, a transparent membrane formed on the surface of the two people's bodies, preventing their body heat and yang energy from showing outward.

If someone were to come over with a temperature scanner and scan the two of them right now, they would be so scared they would faint. Their body temperatures are more terrifying than those of two agile corpses, even more so than rice dumplings.

Without Miluotuo's interference, the two followed the markings and soon arrived at the first coded door.

The normal procedure should be to send another team to Mount Siguniang to retrieve the password.

However, Zuli said that it was not a big problem.

The principle behind so-called combination locks and various trigger mechanisms is that the mechanism drives the corresponding component to trigger the corresponding reaction source, achieving different effects.

The best way to deal with these kinds of objects is to scan them with your divine sense; no trap, mechanism, or code can escape them.

The problem is that Su Li's soul is barely held together right now, and she can't use any of her divine sense...

and so……

After calculating the location corresponding to the Gate of Life, he slowly channeled spiritual energy into his hand, deducing the password from its source.

Fifteen minutes later, a pale green halo appeared on the password square corresponding to the life gate.

"Blind man, enter the password."

Hei Xiazi quickly avoided the floor tiles that might trigger the mechanism, leaped close to the password wall, and pressed the corresponding keys one by one.

The sound of the mechanism turning rang out, and the stone door slowly opened.

It became.

Having confirmed the feasibility of the plan, they proceeded almost unimpeded, entering the first floor of the ancient building without any obstacles.

Inside the main hall of worship.

The first floor of the Zhang Family Ancient Building is just a gloomy hall, which is where the Zhang family worships their ancestors. It is also the safest and most ordinary place.

The two carefully stepped inside, wary of any potential dangers around them.

"Cough cough cough, brat, can you hear me?" A clear, ethereal voice, carrying a familiar and refreshing quality, rang in my ears.

"Who?" Black Bear cautiously pulled Su Li to stand in front of him, relying on the special ability of his eyes to decisively abandon the flashlight, and in a flash, equipped his left and right hands with a dagger and a firearm respectively.

"It's Master's voice!" Su Li exclaimed in surprise.

"Little Ali, be careful, what if it's just an illusion?" Hei Xiazi remained vigilant.

Su Yunqing was very pleased with Hei Xiazi's subconscious protective attitude; it was good that the little guy was loved wherever he went.

These children are good too, so you can take the opportunity, but don't suffer. Let whoever wants to suffer suffer, the children under my protection can't bear any of it.

"This brat is special; illusions won't work on him. The power of this ancient building that Master borrowed is limited. To make a long story short, that little thing on the seventh floor shows signs of waking up. You need to finish this quickly."

The item is in Zhang Ruitong's coffin on the fifth floor. Your master will take you there to retrieve it and leave immediately. You can deal with it later when the story begins and you can exchange it for points.

As soon as they finished speaking, a flash of light appeared, and the two of them found themselves on a floor filled with coffins.

This should be the burial place of the patriarchs of the Zhang family throughout the ages.

The coffin of the previous clan chief, Zhang Ruitong, which they were looking for, was the first one on the outermost edge, since he was considered the youngest in terms of seniority here.

The two had a clear objective: they immediately lifted the coffin lid, touched the ancient sword, confirmed it was the one they wanted, and without hesitation, turned and left...
