Traveling Through the Grave Robbers' Chronicles: Starting from Meeting You

"Hey, is the pool of water down there deep?" The fat man stood at the entrance of the cave and shouted down.

They waited for a long time but did not hear any response from Zhang Qiling. Instead, they heard the sound of splashing water below.

Zhang Hanyan walked quickly to the cave entrance and looked down. In the pitch-black cave, he could only see the unsheathed black gold ancient sword in the light of the flashlight.

"Wu Xie, Fatty, you wait here. I'll go down and take a look. If there are any problems, I'll call you loudly."

After she finished speaking, she grabbed the rope beside her and jumped down, landing next to Zhang Qiling.

"Brother, is there anything in the water?"

"Well, it's a very big fish, and very aggressive."

As soon as Zhang Qiling finished speaking, he saw a huge fish fin appear on the water in the distance, rushing towards them at the fastest speed.

"What did you eat to grow so big?"

Now there were only Zhang Hanyan and Zhang Qiling together, so she didn't have to worry about anything when she took action. She directly threw out a restraining talisman to immobilize the big fish.

"Okay, it can't move now, bro, do you want to kill it?"

Zhang Qiling originally wanted to say no, but then he changed his mind and thought that if Wu Xie and the others came down and saw the trapped fish, there might be some trouble.

He didn't want others to find out that she was different, he was afraid that they would use this to hurt her.

"Well, wait for me here."

He was very confident in Zhang Hanyan's confinement talisman, so he strode over, raised the black gold ancient knife and took the big fish's life.

The bright red blood dyed the pool of water red, and a fishy smell filled the air.

Zhang Hanyan took back the confinement talisman only after the big fish was completely dead. The lifeless big fish gradually floated to the surface of the water.

"Wu Xie, Fatty, come down, everything is fine."

"Okay, you and little brother, move aside, or I, the fat man, will come down and hit you, hahahaha..."

Zhang Hanyan smiled as she heard the fat man's laughter, then pulled Zhang Qiling and walked toward the water's edge, away from where they landed.

Wu Xie and Lao Yang jumped down one after another, and the last one to come down was Fatty. When he jumped down, the water splashed very high, and the water went straight to the people standing on the bank.

Zhang Qiling turned around and held Zhang Hanyan tightly in his arms. His back was wet by the water, but her body was not stained at all.

"Fatty, can't you lose some weight?"

Wu Xie wiped the water stains off his face and yelled angrily.

The fat man stood in the middle of the pool and scratched the back of his head awkwardly, "Hey hey... didn't I, the fat man, tell you guys in advance?"

"Who knew it was so powerful?"

Lao Yang watched Wu Xie and Fatty bickering with each other, a hint of obscurity flashing across his eyes.

"Alright Wu Xie, we've already wasted quite a bit of time, let's keep going forward."

Zhang Hanyan glanced at Lao Yang calmly. According to the description in the original novel, he was also a pitiful man.

He just wanted to use the bronze tree to materialize his dead mother, and now he was just a materialized product.

[Host, what are you thinking about? 】

No.

"Okay, Lao Yang, do you remember the way? If you do, you can lead the way and we will just follow behind you."

"I just remember the approximate route, just follow me."

Lao Yang turned around and walked in front of the crowd. Wu Xie and Fatty looked at each other, then looked at Zhang Hanyan and Zhang Qiling behind them, then walked forward boldly.

Everyone followed Lao Yang through twists and turns in the cave and had long lost the way they came.

"Lao Yang, do you remember the way? Why does it feel colder and colder the further you go inside?"

Wu Xie used his flashlight to continuously shine the surrounding cave walls. The rocks were slippery and he had no idea what it was, but it felt quite disgusting.

"Remember, just walk out from here and you'll arrive. Don't be in a hurry."

Lao Yang smiled ingratiatingly, but when he saw impatience beginning to appear on Wu Xie's face, he immediately turned around and strode forward.

The fat man's eyes were fixed on Lao Yang's back. He patted Wu Xie's shoulder lightly and spoke in a low voice.

"Naive, I think there's something wrong with this old friend of yours, you should be careful of him."

"Ok, I know."

Lao Yang, who was walking in front, seemed to have discovered something. His face showed an extremely excited expression. He stopped and shouted.

"Wu Xie, did you hear anything? It's the sound of water, it's a waterfall. I saw this waterfall when I was here before!"

He quickened his pace and walked forward, leaving Wu Xie behind him far behind.

They followed Lao Yang out of the cave, and a huge waterfall appeared before their eyes. The sound of rushing water filled the entire cave.

"Wu Xie, look, I really didn't lie to you. As long as we follow the direction of the water flow, we will definitely find the bronze sacred tree."

Lao Yang was about to jump down as he spoke, but Zhang Hanyan grabbed the collar of his clothes and forcibly pulled him back.

"Look across here."

The light from her flashlight shone on the opposite cliff, and a group of people appeared at the opposite cave entrance, also looking at them.

Wu Xie recognized them at a glance as the group of people he met at the noodle stall before.

"It turns out that their destination is also here. Lao Yang and I followed them into the mountain."

Lao Yang broke free from Zhang Hanyan's grip, staring straight at the surging water below, and looked like a madman.

"Wu Xie, I'll go down and wait for you."

He jumped straight down without giving Wu Xie a chance to answer.

"Oh my god, is your friend so crazy? He is so obsessed with this, what on earth is he looking for?"

Wu Xie shook his head in confusion, "I don't know either. Let's go down too. Lao Yang is alone down there."

"Okay, Fatty, I'll dance with you."

Just as Wu Xie was about to say no, Fatty pulled him by the arm and he jumped down.

"Fuck you fat guy, don't you even say hello first?"

Following Wu Xie's exclamation, he and Fatty fell into the water together and sank for a long time before floating to the surface.

Zhang Hanyan looked at the people on the opposite side. When they saw them jumping into the water, they also jumped down.

"Brother, let's go down too. I don't think those people on the other side have any good intentions. We have to be on our guard against them. It would be best if we can get rid of them."

Zhang Qiling hummed softly, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

They jumped down hand in hand, and just as they met up with Wu Xie and the others, the people on the opposite side swam directly towards them.

"Are you here to rob tombs too? There is strength in numbers, why don't we join together? We can make money together."

Zhang Qiling thought of Zhang Hanyan's instructions, glanced coldly at the man who spoke, and ignored him.

The people on the other side saw that they ignored them, but there was no anger on their faces. The man who was talking wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and always had a smiling face.

"I......"

Before he could finish his words, the people in his team started shouting.

"Do you feel that the water is getting hotter? Really! White steam is already coming out of the water! Run!"

The heat quickly spread to Zhang Hanyan and the others. Zhang Qiling looked up at the water surface above and saw hot steam bubbling behind several springs.

His face changed and he said in a deep voice, "Hurry up and swim underwater. The deeper you dive, the lower the temperature."

When everyone heard this, they dived into the water without hesitation and swam forward in the direction of the current.
