Tomb raiding: following the plot while tearing up the script

"If I had the chance, I'd like to befriend the blind man..."

"No, you don't!"

The unanimous statement immediately suppressed Hei Xiazi's little scheme to befriend that man.

The outsiders, who couldn't hear the conversation, saw the group of people who had been whispering about something say something to the man in black in unison, and then they visibly wilted.

Holy crap, what kind of words are so powerful? Are they poisonous? I want to learn them!!!

Haha, the power of those words depends on who says them. If it were someone else, do you believe I could smash your head into a dog's head?

After hearing a lot about a certain unreliable big shot in the cultivation world, my friends and I were a bit stuffed while eating. Hehehe, it was delicious, we can have more next time...

After enjoying a good meal with the rest of the team, Tuoba and Er Gouzi were teary-eyed and didn't dare to say a word, fearing that this meal might become their last.

After a hearty meal and plenty of rest, we packed up our gear without any hesitation. Everyone was given a headlamp. Victory was in sight! Brothers, charge!

GoGoGo！！！！

"Wow! Everyone's here!" Fatty Wang slid down the rope and looked up to see rows of neatly arranged terracotta figures. He couldn't help but exclaim.

Wu Xie followed closely behind, and looked up...

Wow, it looks like a small school auditorium, although it's a bit rough and looks like an unfinished house.

But looking at these neat little ones, they are much more well-behaved than when they were in school.

Once everyone had come down, Su Li, finding the headlamp too shaky to see, simply carried out two more lamps.

The sudden light startled Mop and Er Gouzi. They had been through several small pits and were used to dark, cramped spaces, so this spacious and bright environment made them a little timid.

Especially under the lights, in the clearly man-made space, the tiered stone platforms, and the rows and circles of countless statues, all facing their direction, seemed to be watching the people who had entered...

Waaaaah... It makes my legs weak and I want to kneel down...

"Hey, Mop Bro, what kind of customs are these in this weird place? Why are there so many statues here for a big meeting?"

Er Gouzi trembled as he grabbed the mop bag, wishing he could hang himself on the mop.

Even the mop was scared, but he couldn't lose face as the boss. Even though he only had this one henchman left, the boss couldn't back down!

"What are you afraid of? They're just a bunch of broken statues. They can't come back to life and tear us apart, can they?"

"It's not a statue~~"

A faint voice came from behind him, and Mop perked up, his legs starting to tremble.

"Hehehe... All of these... are stuffed! They're alive!"

"Ow!!!!"

"Mommy!!!!! Waaaaaah!!!!"

The sudden commotion startled everyone. Turning around, they saw two people kneeling on the ground, huddled together and wailing, with Black Bear grinning slyly behind them...

This thing is really something...

Black Bear's smug face.

Rather than letting them lose control and touch things later, it's better to just keep them here and cry at the grave for a while. We can just listen to their noise from one ear. That would be so much easier.

"Beep beep, a strange creature has been detected—an ancient corpse of the Yin Soldier. It can be redeemed for 1500 points. Do you want to redeem it?"

"Beep beep, a strange item has been detected - Jade Burial Suit, which can be redeemed for 2000 points. Do you want to redeem it?"

"Beep beep, a strange item has been detected - Corpse Beetle Pill, which can be exchanged for 1500 points. Do you want to exchange it?"

"Beep beep, a strange item has been detected - the Queen Mother of the West's Alchemy Furnace, which can be redeemed for 5000 points. Do you want to redeem it?"

The continuous system notifications made Su Li a little dizzy, and she couldn't help but pick at her ears. Goodness, the place wasn't big, but there was a lot of stuff!

Looking up at the bronze alchemy furnace hanging above, seemingly having violated a heavenly law and bound by a dozen chains, it was a legendary treasure that gathered the essence of the entire dragon vein to achieve immortality...

"My God, this is the suspended furnace! The legendary pinnacle of alchemy..."

"call out……"

An arrow gleaming with black light shot out, directly interrupting Chen Wenjin's eulogistic praise of the broken alchemy furnace...

The arrow landed precisely, severing one of the bronze chains connecting the 'suspended furnace' in a single shot, causing the massive furnace to sway slightly.

Chen Wenjin watched in horror, glaring at Hei Xiazi who was nocking an arrow again. "What are you doing???"

"What kind of bullshit dares to claim it's the highest level of alchemy? Did they even ask for my opinion? Did I agree to it?"

Chen Wenjin: ? ? ? ? ? ?

Did a single sentence bring this undeserved disaster upon the suspended furnace?

"That's right! Blackie is the smartest. Let's see what that old woman, the Queen Mother of the West, has made with this damn 'dragon vein essence'."

Fatty Wang, always eager for excitement, joined in the fun.

Looking at the longbow in Hei Xiazi's hand, which was icy blue with a hint of black light, Fatty had been eyeing it for a long time, to be honest!

That looks so cool! Fatty, being a fan of all kinds of firearms, is incredibly skilled with all sorts of guns. I'd love to try shooting games, which are categorized alongside firearms…

As he spoke, Hei Xiazi fired several more arrows, each capable of severing a bronze chain as thick as a wrist.

"You can't do this! These are cultural relics!!"

Chen Wenjin hurriedly tried to stop him, but Wu Xie stopped her.

"Aunt Wenjin, don't worry about it. The blind man and the fat man are just joking around. They know what they're doing."

Another bronze chain snapped. Hei Xiazi's arrow had been shot a bit too high, breaking almost at the top. The suspended furnace shook violently, and the long chain on it drooped down right in front of the two men. It felt like if it were any longer, it could have smeared their heads.

Chen Wenjin looked at Wuxie with a complicated expression.

There are... numbers?

Wuxie: ...

"It hasn't fallen yet, don't believe the blind man..."

"Crack...crack...crack..."

With a few sharp cracks, the remaining chains, which were barely holding the weight together, broke one after another, and the massive suspended furnace plummeted vertically...

"Wu Xie, watch out!!!" Xie Lianhuan's eyes widened in horror as he watched helplessly as the enormous alchemy furnace hurtled straight towards Wu Xie and Chen Wenjin's location...

If this were to actually hit them, we probably wouldn't even be able to properly collect their bodies.

Wu Xie blinked as he looked at the alchemy furnace, which was less than a meter away from his head but was now blocked by an invisible barrier...

He didn't remember speaking while standing under this broken alchemy furnace, did he? How did the furnace end up on his head?
