Chapter 464: 463. Jade raw stone
That’s right, it was flying!
"..."
"!!!"
The two men who witnessed this scene instantly widened their eyes in shock, wanting to express their astonishment, but their throats were as if stuck, unable to utter a single word.
"Holy shit!"
Su Xiaochi was much more direct than the others, exclaiming in surprise, and after the rain of arrows stopped, she quickly ran toward Tang Shu.
"Sis, what’s going on with you, that smooth movement just now, was it because you ate some Dove chocolate?!"
She hurriedly looked toward the wall, didn’t find anything like thin steel wires to borrow force from, and finally accepted this fact.
Tang Shu gave her a puzzled look, tilting her head, "What?"
"..."
Su Xiaochi took a deep breath, her expression quite bizarre, "The technique you just used was..."
"Qinggong."
"..."
Great, she was completely dumbstruck.
Unbeknownst to Tang Shu that her sister was questioning life, she once again pressed the object in her hand against the wall.
"Click——"
The western wall slowly rose, revealing a passage in front of them.
"Let’s go, don’t waste time."
Su Xiaochi, despite having a thousand words, had to suppress her questions, and looking toward her right hand, she noticed the crescent-shaped jade pendant.
"Is that the real one?"
"Mm."
The one taken by the tomb robber was naturally a fake, but Wen Nuan had aged the jade pendant, anyway, opening the entrance to the main tomb chamber only required a match between the two, real or not didn’t matter.
The passage was opened accompanied by countless bloodstains left behind by tomb robbers.
After treating the superficial wounds of the two injured team members, they had already avoided three waves of triggered hidden weapons, losing a significant amount of strength.
And the deeper they went, the more complex the environment became, the stone-built walls gradually morphed into irregular shapes, resembling more and more like a cave.
"It’s so cold, our current location must be dozens of meters below ground."
"This place is so eerie, how can there be living vines so deep underground?"
After mumbling a few words among themselves, Tang Shu reached out to touch the moisture seeping from the stone wall, her eyes shining several degrees brighter than before.
"If I’m not mistaken, there should be a river ahead."
"A river? How could there be a river inside an ancient tomb?!"
"Perhaps it’s a cavern."
Thousands of years have passed, and if there has always been a river flowing from the ancient times until now, perhaps it really is a cavern.
"Ah——"
Screams once again echoed from ahead, Su Xiaochi and the others hid behind a protruding rock, and saw a black-clothed person being hit by hidden weapons, a sharp wooden stick piercing through their entire body.
Inside was an irregular room filled with stone blocks all around, some even showing hints of green; the cold wind brought a chill, significantly lowering the air temperature.
"It’s jade raw stone."
Tang Shu surveyed the surrounding stones and confirmed their purpose.
"Why would there be jade raw stones in a tomb chamber?"
"The tribal chief thought the green stones were very beautiful, considering them gifts from the heavens to the tribe, and thus wished to be buried with them. It was briefly mentioned in the stone tablet text on the wall."
She was initially surprised that they chose to inscribe this information on the wall; it turned out to be a subtle hint, the raw stones meant for burial weren’t on top but rather inside the main tomb chamber below.
Then...
Tang Shu paused, "That also means we’re not far from the real burial site of the tribal chief."
