Book 1: Chapter 53

At first glance, the big hole had been made by directional blasting with six detonators. In those days, it must have taken a mining expert to adjust the number of explosives to such an accurate degree. Fatty told us that he missed seeing the amazing skills of craftsmen from that time. Even though they were all thieves, compared with the idiots who used excavators now, they always seemed to be like the old legends.

I disagreed. Special historical periods gave rise to special legends, but the old grave robbing legends had already come to an end. History had chosen to abandon them, so after liberation, these kinds of things could only be read in books for fun.

If this really was the main tomb chamber, then it must've been the gate with the fingernails where we were at before. I thought about it and couldnt help but feel that it was extremely dangerous. Fatty said that they were all leather figurines and probably blind if the legend was to be believed, so there was nothing to be afraid of. We just needed to be careful.

At that time, the Mute Emperor was defeated by the Han emperor and fled to the sea. He had thousands of troops, but there are only three of us here now, I thought to myself

Poker-Face turned on his phone camera and held it in his mouth while the two of us lifted him up to the hole. He reached up to grab a rock protruding from the side and clung to it with one hand. He then used both hands to climb up to the edge of the hole, which was the bottom of the tomb chamber. Since we werent sure if there were a lot of those figurines inside, he took a photo with his phone and sent it to me via Bluetooth.

I glanced at it. The phones camera flash was limited to a certain range, so only the tomb chambers floor was photographed. I could see square stone bricks that had a fish-shaped pattern on them, which replicated some of the characteristics of ancient ships from that time period. The cultural characteristics of the South Sea countrys Xu people were also very obvious.This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com

I didn't see anything strange, but the phones flash could only illuminate so far. Poker-Face didn't bother waiting for us and crawled out of the hole.

We couldn't climb up like him, so we had to wait until he came back and stretched out his hand to pull us naked guys up.

These leather figurines nails were very long, and as we looked around under the candlelight, we noticed that there were several other stone boats in the tomb chamber.

"Toy boat models." Fatty mouthed.

I looked at the situation and was certain that the leather figurine woman from below had really come from this main tomb chamber. The gold silk lining on her outfit wasnt easy to pull off, so someone on the team mustve taken her in order to pull the gold silk off later. I didnt know what went wrong, but she was eventually abandoned in the drainage channel. That meant her movements werent the result of a mechanism, which was a bit scary once I thought about it.

I looked back at the place we had climbed out of and then down at my phone again. There still wasnt any news from Liu Sang.

At this distance, we couldnt see what was going on by the tomb gate. I glanced around and found that many places in the tomb had never been disturbed, which was very abnormal considering Uncle Three's bad character. They either didnt dare to move anything or didnt have the time to.

I was confident in my reasoning that there had to be something important in this tomb chamber that made Yang Daguang and Uncle Three obsessed with thunder.

I need to look for it.

Just as I was thinking this, Fatty patted me and pointed above my head. I looked up and saw a boat hanging overhead that looked as if it was covered in human skin.
