Tomb raiding: It all started with shocking the archaeological team.
Chapter 154 Gu Tomb
Chapter 154 The Tomb of Gu "Captain Chen? Is that the streamer who provided us with important clues about the Heavenly Path Society?"
Liu Shi frowned in surprise and looked at Wang Haichuan, asking a question.
Wang Haichuan nodded: "That's right, it's him! Right now, he's probably the only one with the ability to get in!"
Wang Haichuan's tone was firm and resolute.
After all, Wang Haichuan had witnessed Chen Yibai's strength firsthand.
If even Chen Yibai can't get in, it will be difficult to find a second person.
Liu Shi pondered carefully for a moment, then nodded solemnly and said, "Professor Wang, I seem to have heard that this Captain Chen was also involved in the archaeological work on King Kang of Qishan that you led last time. You must be quite familiar with each other, right? Then, could you please help me find this Captain Chen again..."
"Ah I?"
Wang Haichuan was startled when he heard this.
Last time, he confidently promised to be number one on the leaderboard for a month, but he couldn't even stick to it until the second day. If he goes to Chen Yibai again, wouldn't that be a slap in the face to himself?
"Professor Wang, is there a problem?"
Seeing Wang Haichuan's overreaction, Liu Shi asked in bewilderment.
"that……"
Wang Haichuan was momentarily speechless; he couldn't very well blurt it out.
"Well... now Captain Chen is a top streamer with over 100 million followers. If we want him to help, the fee might be..."
Wang Haichuan rubbed his hands together; the rest of his words were self-explanatory.
Liu Shi immediately frowned and said seriously, "When the country is in trouble, he should rush to its aid. Doesn't he even have this most basic awareness? Professor Chen, please go and talk to him and see what conditions he wants. If they're not too unreasonable, I will try my best to apply to higher authorities..."
Wang Haichuan was extremely frustrated. Did this person really have to be him?
Seeing Liu Shi's serious expression and hearing his earlier words, "When the country is in trouble, I will go to its aid," Wang Haichuan had no choice but to reluctantly agree.
That evening, Wang Haichuan flew back to Lingang City with the important task of bringing reinforcements.
Lingang City Public Security Bureau.
Chen Yibai was sitting in a private office, smoking and drinking tea.
This is a proper office, not an interrogation room.
Half an hour ago, Chen Yibai received a summons from the Municipal Bureau, saying that they were there to inquire about some matters concerning the Tianxing Society.
As a result, when Chen Yibai arrived, he was left waiting in the office.
Just as Chen Yibai was sipping his tea, wondering what was going on, a familiar figure walked into the office.
Chen Yibai turned his head and glanced at it, his expression surprised.
Hey, who's this? Isn't this Professor 'King of the Sea'?
"Professor Chuan?"
"Oh no! Professor Wang, you look radiant after just a month or two! Did you get promoted or made a fortune?!"
Chen Yibai chuckled immediately, the sarcasm in his words making Wang Haichuan blush with embarrassment, wishing he could disappear into a hole in the ground.
Fortunately, Wang Haichuan had already prepared himself mentally for this before he arrived.
They also prepared their responses in advance.
After entering the room, Wang Haichuan first gave Chen Yibai an awkward smile, and then immediately began to play the victim: "Captain Chen, I'm really sorry, as you know, I'm just a university professor. On the surface, I have a high title, but in reality, I only receive a fixed income of a little over ten thousand yuan a month..."
Chen Yibai smoked a cigarette, his eyes half-closed, listening to Wang Haichuan's smug chuckle.
You're an archaeology expert, a university professor, with a fixed income of over ten thousand yuan a month, and you're here fooling idiots?
However, Chen Yibai was too lazy to listen to his sob story.
What intrigued him even more was why Wang Haichuan had come to see him.
I'm definitely not here specifically to explain this.
"Professor Wang, you didn't come to see me just for this, did you?"
Chen Yibai interrupted Wang Haichuan's attempt to gain sympathy, and asked with a curious raised eyebrow.
Wang Haichuan stopped himself from speaking, and with a smile, took out a stack of neatly organized documents from his briefcase and handed them to Chen Yibai: "Captain Chen, there are indeed other things I'd like to ask you for help with."
You still need my help?
Good heavens! You old codger, you've got quite the thick skin!
Chen Yibai raised his eyebrows even higher. Although he cursed inwardly, he still curiously took the stack of documents handed to him by Wang Haichuan and flipped through them.
Wang Haichuan chimed in, "The police have already investigated the Tianxing Society you provided, but all of the nearly two hundred core members of the Tianxing Society have entered the primeval tropical rainforest of southern Yunnan, heading towards a large tomb!"
I feel that the large tomb that the Tianxing Society is looking for, hidden in the primeval tropical rainforest of southern Yunnan, is very likely related to the three major evil arts of southern Yunnan.
With the police's current resources, it's difficult to follow up...
I think that in the entire country, only you, Captain Chen, have the ability to get in, so on behalf of the police, I would like to ask you for this favor…
The three great evil arts of southern Yunnan: Gu poison, Gu magic, and black magic!
"No way! I can't handle it!"
After quickly glancing at the documents in his hand, Chen Yibai handed them back without hesitation and decisively refused.
Wang Haichuan is right. Judging from the photos of the poisonous insects, they are indeed Gu insects, one of the three major evil arts of southern Yunnan!
The presence of these Gu worms near the ancient tomb confirms with absolute certainty that this is a 'Gu tomb'!
Moreover, it is an extraordinary 'Gu Tomb'!
According to the rules of the tomb raiders, there are two types of tombs they will not rob.
First, one should not rob the tombs of loyal and virtuous generals and ministers, as robbing such tombs will surely bring divine retribution. If one does not know this before entering the tomb, one should still respectfully retreat and not touch anything inside.
Another rule is that the tombs of Taoist practitioners cannot be disturbed. Although tomb raiders are skilled in feng shui, geomancy, yin and yang, and the eight trigrams, they are basically useless against Taoist mysticism, so the risk is extremely high.
Besides these two types of tombs that should not be robbed, there is another type of tomb that should not be touched lightly unless absolutely necessary: the Gu tombs of southern Yunnan!
The so-called "Gu Tomb" is a tomb in which a Gu poison was placed in the tomb after the owner's death using Yunnan sorcery. Such tombs are not only dangerous but also extremely sinister, almost as powerful as the mystical arts of thieves.
According to the records in "The Tomb Raider's Notes", during the Three Kingdoms period, ten groups of tomb raiders secretly infiltrated the Sichuan region, but eight of them perished there, which shows how risky it was.
Therefore, if the risk and reward are not proportional, it is certainly not something to take lightly.
What's more, even the police didn't dare to come in, so they came to me for help.
Isn't this just using yourself as a pawn or cannon fodder in a siege?
However, on the other hand, the Heavenly Path Society is quite valiant. Two hundred core members have been mobilized. Are they planning to go all in and make a big bet?
