Tomb raiding: following the plot while tearing up the script

"Goodness gracious, this is too extravagant! Golden nanmu wood pillars, what kind of family is this?!" Fatty Wang's voice suddenly came.

While Su Li was squatting in front of the golden statue, pondering how to get the system to pay attention to its follow-up, Wu Xie was taking pictures everywhere with his camera.

As an outstanding graduate in architecture, he marveled at the exquisite craftsmanship of ancient artisans, even the models were made so meticulously, while frantically snapping photos at them.

Fatty Wang also looked around expectantly, wondering if he could find some portable treasures in some corner to use as trinkets.

To his utter surprise, instead of finding the prized item, he noticed a wooden pillar that he hadn't seen before.

Take a closer look...

Wow, it's made of Phoebe zhennan wood!!!

The huge golden nanmu coffin he saw in the tomb where the drought demon was found was already quite astonishing to Fatty, but compared to this main tomb chamber, that golden nanmu coffin was nothing.

The scream caught Wu Xie's attention, and he went to check on a nearby pillar.

That's incredibly extravagant—using Phoebe zhennan wood for pillars!

These three pieces of Phoebe zhennan wood, each the size of three people's embrace, are only fit to be used as pillars in this tomb? It's truly shocking how pathetic Young Master San's spending habits are.

woo woo woo...

I have an irreconcilable hatred for all rich people...

Su Zhen Youqian Li: Should I leave?

Jie·God of Wealth·Rain·Little Flower·Chen: Shall I go too? ??

"Little Innocent, do you think if we saw this thing off, could Xiao Lizi take it out with her?"

The fat man thought Xiao Lizi seemed quite interested in the wood. "How about we sell it after we get out, take ten percent each, and give the rest to Xiao Lizi as a reward for his hard work?"

Wang Pangzi thought of the golden nanmu coffin that Su Li had put away and felt that Su Li would probably be interested in this activity.

Wu Xie looked at Fatty Wang. "Fatty, you're a real genius! So, how are you planning to saw this thing off?"

The soul-searching question hits the nail on the head.

Wang Pangzi, who was originally eager to try, suddenly got stuck. Oh no, he forgot the most important step.

Thinking of all sorts of supplies that Su Li could readily produce that had nothing to do with tomb raiding, Fatty Wang climbed up the model of the Heavenly Palace and approached Su Li, who was confronting the seated golden statue.

Sitting in a golden body:? ? ? ? ?

Who's confronting this weird vendor?! Do you think I'd dare make a move?!

"Little Li, did you... bring a saw?"

Su Li looked at Fatty Wang blankly.

"Would an axe work?"

There was no saw, but there was an axe. Back then, when he saw his senior brother forge an axe, he was still a bit confused and almost got angry. His first reaction was to put it in his spatial storage and hide it. He never took it out again after that.

Why not just focus on forging swords? Why bother with this hellish contraption?!

Fatty Wang pointed to the nearest pillar. "This thing is so big, Little Li, can you carry it?"

Su Li looked at the pillar, as if to say, "Who do you think you are? You can take the entire tomb with you."

Black Bear: Who envies the blind man, I won't say...

"Great! Fatty, what if I cut this pillar down and give it to you, and you get 10% of the profit from selling it? How about that?"

"It's feasible... right?"

"The oxygen supply isn't enough." Zhang Qiling's timely remark was a timely dose of reality.

Fatty Wang looked completely bewildered. What do you mean, "Don't support me?"

Wu Xie was also jolted awake from Wang Pangzi's pie-in-the-sky promise by this reminder. Right, they were still worried about the oxygen problem. Not to mention whether they had the right tools, cutting down such a thick golden nanmu pillar would be a huge undertaking.

They're not even sure how long the oxygen in this tomb will last them, so how can they possibly carry out such a large-scale activity?

"Don't even think about it, Fatty. What if you run out of oxygen before you've even finished cutting down the pillars? We'll all die here and be buried with Wang Zanghai." Wu Xie patted Fatty Wang on the shoulder.

"Let's think about how to get out of here first."

"How do we get out? We've lost our equipment, and the way back is blocked... Naive, your third uncle isn't really going to screw you over, is he?"

Wu Xie: Please don't bring up things that are hard to talk about, thank you.

"Actually, I've already thought of a way out." Wu Xie confidently stated the plan he hadn't had time to mention on the way, receiving support from Fatty Wang, who seemed impressed but didn't quite understand it...

Fatty Wang: Hmm, I didn't understand the principle or anything, but I'll still give it a thumbs up...

Zhang Qiling and Su Li, who had already seen the success of this plan in the original work, said: "The plan was very successful, but it was a bit wasteful of resources."

Well, the tomb that Little Third Master usually uses for daily expenses is either blown up or collapsed.

The plan is good for the subsequent development of Lao Qin, but it can be improved.

"How can we improve it?" Wu Xie asked Su Li with bright eyes. If he could, he wouldn't want to destroy the place directly.

Such an exquisite design, a mechanism that still functions smoothly after hundreds of years, a priceless burial item...

These are architectural gems!

If his university advisor found out that he had blown up such a tomb, he felt that his advisor would want to blow him up.

Under the watchful eyes of the others, Su Li took out a few small beads.

Wu Xie looked at it and found it familiar, so he took out an identical small bead from his neck.

The bead, about the size of a little finger, is crystal clear and glows with a blue light. It looks like there's a little fish swimming inside.

It was the very same one that Su Li had given him when he first entered the underwater tomb. He had thought it was some little trinket that a kid had found somewhere and was giving it to him, so he happily put it around his neck.

"Huh? Little Innocent already has one?" Fatty Wang picked one up curiously, and also noticed the one that Wu Xie had been wearing around his neck for a long time.

"Ah Li gave it to me a long time ago. Ah Li, what is this thing? Can it take us out of here?"

Su Li handed one of the remaining two beads to Zhang Qiling and hung the other on herself.

"Water-repelling pearl, with it you can live in the sea without any problem."

Produced by my second senior sister, the quality is top-notch.

"In a moment, I will set up an isolation array on the tomb wall that allows exit but not entry. We can just go out from there and avoid letting the seawater in."

Zuli pointed to the wall not far away.

Without further ado, the stockpiled disposable battle flags came in handy again. The Zurich battle flags were swung around, and a small formation was set up in no more than five minutes.

With defense secured, it's time to bring in the heavy-duty units.

Zhang Qiling sheathed his black gold ancient sword and took out another long sword with a concealed gleam from his spatial storage. Without using much force, he sliced ​​it into pieces as easily as if it were tofu...

It was so magnificent on the stone tomb wall.

Slice! Create! One! Door!

Wu Xie & Wang Pangzi, who had only ever seen Zhang Qiling wielding the Black Gold Ancient Sword to slay monsters: So you used that sword before because its damage was relatively low?

The tomb wall was perfectly carved out with a small doorway that could allow one person to pass through. The seawater outside was surging, but it was blocked by an invisible barrier and showed no sign of rushing in.

Wu Xie even saw a passing sea fish discover the place and curiously approach it, trying to go inside, but it couldn't manage to squeeze in.

Ah Li's formation is so illogical!!!

Wu Sansheng: Wasn't the previous sealing of the Lu King's Palace contrary to common sense?
