After time travel, I was caught and became a fake princess

Chapter 86 Breaking into the Ancient Tomb at Night

The four of them traveled through the alleyways at night. Although the city of mist looked small, the roads were complicated. It took them more than an hour to reach the foot of the mountain where the mausoleum was located. Gu Chaoxuan pointed to the mountain road in front of him: "On the mountainside is the city lord's mausoleum where the past dynasties of the city lords are placed. There are experts guarding the tomb outside. We must be careful and don't alert the snake."

When Ye and Qin Yan were about to take Su Qiuyue away, Su Qiuyue suggested taking Gu Chaoxuan with them. After all, Gu Chaoxuan was from the Mist City and was familiar with things in the city. Qin Yan and Ye were originally opposed, but they couldn't resist Su Qiuyue's insistence and had to bring Gu Chaoxuan out. Fortunately, Gu Chaoxuan cooperated and led the three of them to the mausoleum.

Ye Leng said coldly: "Qin Yan and I will take care of the masters guarding the tomb. You guys are coming up." Gu Chaoxuan said: "Don't hurt their lives." "Don't worry, we won't kill innocent people indiscriminately. Let them sleep for a night."

Ye and Qin Yan used Qing Kung Fu to fly towards the mountainside, disappearing into the vast night like ghosts. Half a quarter of an hour later, Gu Chaoxuan said: "Let's go up too." He was about to start Qinggong and fly up, but he was grabbed by Su Qiuyue: "Hey, I don't know Qinggong, just wait for me."

Gu Chaoxuan frowned and said: "Auntie, you are holding us back. I really don't understand why Brother Ye brought you out." Su Qiuyue stuck out her tongue at him and said: "You think I want to come out with you in the middle of the night? Ah, it’s best if you dump me then I’ll be happy.”

Complaints are complaints, Gu Chaoxuan followed Su Qiuyue step by step. Su Qiuyue was panting from climbing, and from a distance he saw Qin Yan walking around impatiently. Seeing the two people finally coming up, Qin Yan couldn't wait to push the heavy stone door.

Qin Yan tried his best but did not push the stone door open. He called to those around him and Gu Chaoxuan: "Come up and push together." He took the initiative to ignore Su Qiuyue who was breathing heavily at the side.

Everyone worked together and finally pushed the stone door open enough for one person to pass through. Qin Yan was the first to go in, and Su Qiuyue followed closely behind.

Inside the stone gate are two rows of long-lit lights, which illuminate the hall behind the stone gate even more spaciously. Qin Yan walked to an oil lamp and said thoughtfully: "No one comes in here, why does this lamp burn forever?"

Ye Ye picked up a lamp and looked at it carefully, "Could this be lamp oil made from mermaid ointment?"

"Mermaid ointment? The legendary mermaid ointment that lasts for thousands of years?" Su Qiuyue asked excitedly. If she could sneak some out, she doesn't know how many people would be out there trying to steal it.

Gu Chaoxuan said with a strange look on his face: "What's so strange about this? I heard from my aunt that the ancestors of the City of Mist went to the East China Sea and brought back a lot of mermaid paste."

"Since there is so much mermaid paste here, you definitely won't mind if I take some away." Su Qiuyue said flatteringly.

"Take it, take it, I agree." Gu Chaoxuan said with his nostrils pointing to the sky.

Su Qiuyue happily picked up a lamp and was about to blow it out and take it away. Suddenly, a cold wind blew by, and a blurry shadow suddenly flashed across her face. Su Qiuyue suddenly got goosebumps, and she was so frightened that she hurriedly Put the lamp in your hand back into place.

Ye shouted: "Who is it?" The tomb was empty, with only the sound of Ye echoing. Su Qiuyue hurriedly hid behind Ye and said tremblingly: "Xiaoye, there can't be ghosts here." Gu Chaoxuan also stammered: "Dear city lords and ancestors, I'm sorry, you must not Come out and scare me, and when I go back, I will burn more paper money for you."

Qin Yan also looked solemn. He picked up a mermaid lamp and walked slowly towards the depths of the tomb. Ye followed Qin Yan, while Su Qiuyue followed Ye closely, not daring to leave even half a step. Gu Chaoxuan Then he went to the rear holding an oil lamp.

Passing through the tomb, what appeared in front of everyone was a wooden door made of a whole golden nanmu tree. The oil lamp shone through the wooden door, and a trace of golden thread flowed in the wooden door. Qin Yan couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "You, the Mist City, are really generous. Such a big golden nanmu is used as the tomb door. What a waste of natural resources."

Pushing open the heavy wooden door, a sense of antiquity hit him inside. Behind the golden nanmu door there were still two rows of bright lanterns. Seeing so many bright lanterns, Gu Chaoxuan couldn't help but sigh that his ancestors were really prodigal.

There was no coffin in the second tomb, but more than a dozen red-painted camphor wood boxes were neatly placed on the ground. Qin Yan opened one of the boxes, which turned out to be full of gold. Qin Yan opened the camphor wood box next to it. The reflection of various jewelry in the box almost blinded Su Qiuyue.

Su Qiuyue stared blankly at the box full of jewelry and swallowed hard. Qin Yan opened the dozens of boxes in turn, all filled with gold and silver jewelry. Su Qiuyue even saw dozens of shining night pearls. She suddenly lost her composure and was about to reach out to take it, but was stopped by Gu Chaoxuan.

"Aunt Su, this is something from our Mist City. As the saying goes, taking it without asking is stealing. You can't steal anything."

"How can this be called stealing? This is stealing. You have so many things in your house, and I just take them away. It's just a drop in the bucket. Why are you so stingy?" Su Qiuyue argued.

Gu Chaoxuan said: "This is the escape route left by the ancestors for the Mist City. If the Mist City is invaded one day, the tribe can use these gold and silver jewelry to make a comeback. Therefore, you cannot touch these things."

Su Qiuyue said: "If you don't move, you won't move. Who cares about it? I'm surprised. This is already the second tomb. Why are there still no coffins of the previous city lords?"

Qin Yan said: "There seems to be another tomb inside. Let's go in and have a look." As he said that, he first walked inside holding the mermaid lantern. After passing through a dark and deep corridor, the four of them came to an abyss. The abyss was more than three feet wide, and the third tomb was at the other end of the abyss.

Su Qiuyue looked towards the abyss. The huge abyss was like a devil's scar, lying in front of everyone.

Ye Dan said calmly: "Look, is that an iron chain?" Ye pointed to the right. When everyone looked around, they saw three huge iron chains connecting the two ends of the abyss. The iron chains were about the diameter of a bowl and glowed with a cold aura.

Qin Yan walked over and pulled the iron chain and said: "The iron chain is very safe, let's walk over." After saying that, he picked up the light work, stood on the iron chain, and flew to the other side of the abyss. Ye hugged Su Qiuyue and jumped to the other side of the abyss. Gu Chaoxuan followed suit and flew over.

The four of them continued forward and finally saw a dozen sarcophagi. When Gu Chaoxuan saw the sarcophagus, he kowtowed to it three times and muttered something he didn't know what he was talking about. The general meaning was to ask the old city lords to forgive him because he was forced to come here by these tomb robbers.
