Tomb raiding: It all started with shocking the archaeological team.
Chapter 96 Arriving at Qinling Mountains
The more Chen Yibai thought about it, the more he felt that things were not simple.
Chicken Brother and all his men have died in the tomb of King Kang.
Although Chicken Brother's men never found the body.
However, Chen Yibai was 100% certain that even if they didn't die, they absolutely couldn't get out alive.
If that's the case, how did the Southern School's Heavenly Path Society manage to reach the Qinling Mountains in such a short time and find an ancient tomb with a mysterious connection to the Kang King's tomb?
Yan Tianjiu looked at Chen Yibai's strange expression, pondered for a moment, and then nodded and said, "Captain Chen, since we've come this far, I'll be frank with you. Actually, I had dealings with this Wu Daoshan thirty years ago, also asking him to help find this Western Han Dynasty tomb... but we didn't find it that time. Not only did we not find it, but we also lost many people on both sides..."
Therefore, Wu Daoshan also had a photocopy of this Western Han Dynasty cloth!
Thirty years had passed, and the sudden appearance of the Heavenly Path Society members in the Qinling Mountains meant that Wu Daoshan had rekindled his interest in the Western Han Dynasty tomb there!
Huh, there's such a thing?
Judging from Yan Tianjiu's expression and tone, it doesn't seem like he's lying.
So, this so-called successor of the Tomb Raiders, this so-called Iron-Armed White Ape, is only so-so in ability.
But then again, if what Yan Tianjiu said is true, then Tian Xing's appearance in the Qinling Mountains should have been aimed at the Western Han Dynasty tomb on the cloth, so how did it end up being associated with the Kangwang Tomb?
Is this really just a pure coincidence?
But isn't this coincidence a bit too outrageous?
Chen Yibai's head throbbed with worry. It seemed that the only way to solve this mystery was to go to the Qinling Mountains and find the Western Han Dynasty tomb depicted on the cloth.
"Captain Chen, the Heavenly Path Society has reappeared in the Qinling Mountains after thirty years. If their target is indeed this Western Han Dynasty tomb, they must be confident in their ability to go there. Therefore, we must hurry up. If we can find this Western Han Dynasty tomb before the Heavenly Path Society, I will add another 100 million to your reward, making it a total of 200 million. I will pay 50 million upfront, and the remaining 150 million will be paid after the matter is completed. How about that?"
Yan Tianjiu stretched out his hand in front of Chen Yibai and made a "V" sign.
It is evident that Tianxing's appearance in the Qinling Mountains is a competitive threat to Yan Tianjiu, so he generously doubled the hiring fee.
As mentioned before, Chen Yibai doesn't like taking other people's money and risking his life.
But the situation is different now.
Even if he didn't have a single penny, Chen Yibai would still make this trip.
So this became a side effect, meaning that after the matter was settled, the two hundred million was given away for free.
Yan Tianjiu seemed to notice Chen Yibai's hesitation, so he directly took out a bank card from his pocket and handed it over: "Captain Chen, this black card doesn't have a PIN. I'll call right now and have someone transfer fifty million into the card..."
"Okay then..."
Chen Yibai twitched the corner of his mouth, reached out and took the black card, and said, "I'll drive to the Qinling Mountains now. There's nothing else to prepare. Wait for my news!"
After speaking, Chen Yibai casually stuffed the black card into his pocket and turned to leave.
"Captain Chen, wait a minute, are you going alone?"
Yan Tianjiu saw that Chen Yibai had accepted the black card, which meant the deal was done. However, before he could even feel happy, he saw Chen Yibai turn to leave after saying a few words, so he quickly called him back, saying, "Captain Chen, it might not be safe for you to go alone and run into the Heavenly Path Society. I've already chosen a team..."
Before Yan Tianjiu could even finish speaking, Chen Yibai already knew what he meant.
It was obvious that Yan Tianjiu wanted to bring some of his own people along, ostensibly for safety reasons, but actually to prevent himself from being taken advantage of by both sides after finding the tomb.
Having paid a 200 million yuan hiring fee, what if Chen Yibai finds the tomb, hollows it out, and only leaves the shell to report back? Wouldn't Yan Tianjiu then become a great victim of injustice?
Although Chen Yibai knew what Yan Tianjiu was thinking, he still firmly shook his head and said, "Mr. Yan, we tomb raiders have always preferred to work alone and don't need to bring anyone with us. When I find this Western Han Dynasty tomb, I will naturally notify you to bring people over!"
"If you don't believe me, then you should find someone else!"
As he spoke, Chen Yibai took the black card he had just put in his pocket out again.
The experience at the Kangwang Tomb last time taught Chen Yibai a lesson he would never forget.
You absolutely cannot bring any more burdens into the tomb, otherwise it will seriously affect your speed in drawing your sword.
"This……"
Seeing Chen Yibai's resolute attitude, Yan Tianjiu frowned and became extremely tense.
Judging from Chen Yibai's attitude, if someone is forcibly assigned to follow him, this matter will definitely fall through.
However, Yan Tianjiu had also heard that the tomb raiders always preferred to work alone.
In addition, Yan Tianjiu also knew that the Tomb Raiders had the best reputation in the tomb raiding world, so there shouldn't be any major problems.
Therefore, after considering everything, Yan Tianjiu could only force a smile and nod: "Captain Chen, we've been friends for centuries. I simply want to find a few people to assist you, it's definitely not that I don't trust you. If you really don't need them, that's fine...that's fine too..."
"Okay! Then wait for my news!"
Chen Yibai smiled, put the black card back into his pocket, and turned to leave.
After leaving the club, Chen Yibai took out his phone and used it to navigate to the Qinling Mountains.
The entire journey is over 700 kilometers; we should be able to arrive before dark.
But before going, I'll go home and get my equipment.
This time, Chen Yibai is all alone, and with his complete transformation, he will definitely not be as timid and hesitant as he was at the Kangwang Tomb!
Meanwhile, inside the clubhouse.
Shortly after Chen Yibai left, a pretty figure pushed open the door and entered.
"Dad, you know, this Captain Chen used to be a special consultant for the archaeological team. I watched his live stream yesterday, and he seemed quite familiar with that SWAT captain. What if he took money and then sold us out?"
Yan Xuefei looked at Yan Tianjiu and asked with a serious expression.
Yan Tianjiu must have considered this concern as well.
"No way! This industry has its own rules, and besides, he's a descendant of the tomb raiders!"
Yan Tianjiu brewed another cup of tea, his tone resolute, and then looked up at Yan Xuefei and said, "Xiaofei, arrange for people to go to the Qinling Mountains ahead of time to provide support. We absolutely cannot let the Tianxing Society get their hands on this Western Han Dynasty tomb first!"
"Yeah! I'll go now!"
Yan Xuefei responded and turned to leave...
A few hours later.
At 6:30 pm, the sun set behind the western mountains, and the afterglow was like blood.
Chen Yibai drove all the way and finally arrived at the Qinling Mountains before dark.
