Tomb raiding: following the plot while tearing up the script

The frogman leader carefully checked everyone's equipment to make sure it was undamaged and that everyone had brought what they needed. Then, the group went into the water one by one.

According to the information brought back by the scouts, the location of the tomb raider's hole they discovered was not far from their ship.

Fatty Wang swam to the depression outside the cave entrance and made an explosion gesture with his hand.

This space was artificially blasted open; below it should be the tunnel dug by Wu Sansheng.

Aning checked with the lead frogman to confirm that the surrounding area was stable and there was no risk of collapse.

Wu Xie also found several stone anchors nearby, which were similar to those Wu Sansheng had mentioned to him.

The waterproof bag that Su Li found on the ghost ship yesterday was opened by Wu Xie on the way to pick up Fatty and the others. Inside was actually the work diary of Uncle Three's archaeological team from back then.

The document states that the entire archaeological team entered the underwater tomb to escape a storm, and was led in by Wu Sansheng. Before that, Wu Sansheng had entered alone.

This gave Wu Xie a lot of confidence. He could tell from the traces on the tunnel that it was Wu Sansheng's workmanship, which was also the correct entrance.

Wu Xie confirmed that the location was correct. Fatty Wang looked at A Ning, his meaning clear: whether or not to proceed required her approval as the person in charge.

Ah Ning glanced at the diving watch on her wrist, confirmed the data, and nodded.

Having received the signal, Fatty Wang took a deep breath and prepared to venture inside to scout the way.

Seeing that there was nothing more for him to do, Wu Xie realized that he hadn't had much time to keep track of Su Li's situation since he came down.

It was the child's first time diving, and A-Ning arranged for a frogman to guide him. When Wu-Xie found him...

He's slacking off...

Truly slacking off...

Not far from where they were exploring the work site.

A great white shark, nearly three meters long, was circling around Zurich with a group of colorful sea fish.

A group of colorful little fish and a great white shark swam around in a flamboyant manner, much like concubines in a harem vying for favor.

It is quite obvious that Beauty Shark is more skilled and has won the favor of Emperor Li, with a group of Beauty Fish following its lead.

The frogmen assigned to lead the team to Zurich were sidelined and dared not make any moves.

The lead great white shark frolicked affectionately around Su Li, occasionally nuzzling its large head against Su Li's hand, looking like it was begging to be petted.

Is this harmonious picture of humanity and nature a unique affinity buff possessed by cultivators?

If Su Li knew what Wu Xie was thinking, she would definitely reply to him... No, you haven't seen how much hatred my third senior brother has for all animals.

No wonder his second senior sister wanted to beat him up every now and then. The two fathers would fight at the drop of a hat, and nine times out of ten, they would blow up his mountain.

Su Li was happily petting a shark when she saw Wu Xie and her diving instructor sitting together, watching her.

???

Does the puppy also want to pet the little cutie?

Thinking this, Su Li, who considered herself to be considerate, skillfully swam to Wu Xie's side, grabbed his hand, and placed it on the pointed forehead of the white shark that had followed her along.

Wuxie: ...

White Shark who just wants to be close to Zuli: ...

Kid, are you being polite?

That's so rude!!!

Before the white shark, who had been forcibly teased, could react, Wu Xie, who had been forcibly teased, was so frightened that he spat out a string of bubbles and instantly darted far away.

Su Li tilted her head and reached out to rub the white shark's forehead.

What's wrong? Is your touch not feeling good?

Isn't this great?

Slippery!

After calming his frightened young mind, Wu Xie gestured to Su Li and held out the writing board in his hand for Su Li to see.

'Entrance found, prepare to go down.'

After reading it, Su Li nodded obediently, waved goodbye to her friends, and after receiving stickers from each of them, she obediently followed Wu Xie and swam towards the tomb.

In the tunnel ahead, Fatty Wang led the way, followed by Aning and Baldy Zhang. Two members of the frogman team also followed, and Wu Xie, along with Su Li, followed the last frogman into the tunnel.

Once inside the tomb, things were fine at first. Wu Xie was certain that this was the work of his bastard third uncle, and that they had come to the right place.

However, he hadn't gone far when he realized that something seemed wrong with the tunnel. From this point onward, the passage became very irregular, sometimes wide and sometimes narrow, with no discernible pattern.

This is definitely not what a tomb raider's tunnel dug by Wu Sansheng should look like.

That old fox, putting aside everything else, was rather arrogant about his tomb-robbing skills.

Whether it was Wu Sansheng, who wanted to show off his skills to his sweetheart in the archaeological team twenty years ago, or the old fox who has mastered his skills so much that he has no room to slack off twenty years later.

Regardless of when the tomb was dug, the tunnel should have been perfectly neat, orderly, and extremely sturdy.

It's nothing like it is now, a perfectly good cave has been dug up into a mess, looking like it was dug out by some animal that's good at burrowing.

Surely the old fox didn't suddenly mutate into a real fox and start digging holes in the sea.

Wu Xie was stunned by his own wild imagination when he thought about this.

But on second thought, it's not entirely impossible.

While I may be daydreaming, this isn't the time to let my wild ideas hold me back.

Wu Xie led Su Li past two frogmen on a relatively wide section of road and arrived at Aning and the others.

The writing board was used to indicate that the traces of the tomb raider's hole were incorrect and might pose a danger.

Ah Ning also showed a serious attitude towards Wu Xie's warning, and then notified Wang Pangzi, who was scouting ahead, to be wary of possible hidden dangers.

Wu Xie knew that he couldn't stop the action with just one sentence; his intention was to warn everyone to be careful.

The group continued their arduous journey. By this time, the light from the cave entrance had completely disappeared. After passing through an area that was almost vertically downward, the traces of a tomb finally came into view.

This appears to be a tomb passage, constructed of brick and stone, but it is now somewhat dilapidated, as if it had been forcibly broken open by some powerful creature.

It wasn't until they saw it with their own eyes that everyone gained a clear understanding of Wu Xie's warning. Moreover, judging from the extent of the damage to the tomb passage, there might be more than just one or two dangers lurking in this underwater tomb.

Fatty Wang gestured, took off the underwater air gun from his back, and, along with the two frogmen, assumed a defensive posture before slowly moving forward.

Wu Xie had matured considerably since his first tomb raiding experience, pulling Su Li along as they followed closely behind.

After passing through the area that was initially severely damaged, the group officially entered the tomb passage.

The tomb passage was much larger than Wu Xie had imagined, and everyone turned up their waterproof lamps, which shone far into the distance.

The human face reliefs on the wall confirmed Wu Xie's suspicion that they were probably not far from the real entrance to the tomb.
