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

The fat man noticed her gaze and just smiled at her without saying much.

"Okay, now that the door is open, let's keep going."

Huo Xiangu urged impatiently. She stared at Zhang Qiling who was standing at the door, and her meaning was very clear, asking him to go ahead.

Zhang Qiling ignored her, turned his head to look at Zhang Hanyan behind him, stretched out his hand, and squeezed his fingers into hers.

"let's go."

"it is good."

Zhang Hanyan let herself be led forward by him. She turned her head to look at him. His profile was sharp and distinct, his long black eyelashes drooped slightly, his nose was straight and his lips were thin. He was incredibly handsome.

Ever since he recovered his memory, he has been behaving in a domineering and clingy manner, wanting to stay by Zhang Hanyan's side almost all the time.

Even when he went to bed at night, he would wait until she fell asleep before going back to his room.

After Zhang Qiling led them into the first stone gate, there was a straight passage without any forks in the road.

The team moved forward and when they were about four or five hundred meters away, a second tightly closed stone door appeared.

"Another stone door. Brother, Hanyan, Fatty, I think you Zhang family members are really capable. You installed two anti-theft doors in such a short distance."

The fat man leaned forward and looked, "Could it be that all along this road, there are security doors of your house?"

"I don't know. This is our first time here too."

Zhang Qiling looked at him silently. He knew that the fat man was in a bad mood these days and it was rare for him to answer his questions immediately.

The fat man obviously didn't expect Zhang Qiling to answer. After being surprised for a moment, he walked up to him with a smile and looked him up and down.

"What's going on, little brother? It's rare to see you and me having such a long conversation at once? Did you see a ghost?"

Zhang Qiling secretly clenched his fists, looked at him calmly, and said no more words.

Zhang Hanyan looked at the two of them and chuckled. She knew that Zhang Qiling was almost unable to control his disgust for him.

"Take a picture of the stone gate and send it to Wu Xie and the others as soon as possible."

"Yes."

At Fairy Huo's command, the people of the Huo family immediately raised their cameras, took pictures and sent them to Wu Xie and Jie Yuchen.

Perhaps it was because it was Wu Xie and his team’s second time to unlock the Thousand Mile Lock, and they were already quite skilled at the operation. This time, they acted quickly, and they got the password the next day.

Zhang Qiling compared the pattern on the photo and pressed the fragments, and the second stone door opened smoothly.

Behind the stone gate, the passage is dark and long. At the end of the passage is a huge tomb chamber. The tomb chamber is like a natural cold storage, constantly emitting cold air and is extremely cold.

Suddenly entering such a cold environment, everyone couldn't help but shiver, hugging their arms tightly and huddling together.

"Brother, clothes."

Taking advantage of the backpack, Zhang Hanyan took out several pieces of thick warm clothes from the space and handed one to Zhang Qiling first.

"You put it on first."

Zhang Qiling took the clothes and put them on Zhang Hanyan first. He touched her cheeks and hands worriedly, with concern in his eyes.

Her hands were icy cold. As far as he could remember, they had never warmed up since the time at the Lama Temple in Medog, Tibet.

It was no longer like before. Whenever their skin touched, her hands were always so warm that they seemed to be able to burn his heart.

Zhang Qiling looked at her with a frown on his face. Her cold hands were like countless thin needles, piercing his heart deeply, causing him to feel a tingling pain.

Zhang Hanyan smiled and pulled her hand away, picked up a piece of clothing and put it on him, then handed the remaining piece to the fat man.

"Thank you, Hanyan. This tomb is really cold, just like a big refrigerator. But then again, why did you, the Zhang family, build such a big refrigerator in your ancestral tomb?"

The fat man put on his clothes and looked around. The stone walls of the tomb were covered with a thick layer of ice.

"It's a grave, so this big refrigerator is naturally used to freeze the corpses to prevent them from decaying."

Zhang Hanyan said nonchalantly while tidying up Zhang Qiling's clothes, completely unaware of the fat man's colourful expression.

After hearing this, the fat man couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Zhang Hanyan and Zhang Qiling, his voice sonorous and powerful.

"You Zhang family are capable of this. You built such a large cold storage to freeze the bodies of your family members. I don't know what your ancestors were thinking."

Huo Xiangu and the others were shivering with cold and had no intention of talking.

The third stone door is on the right side of this tomb chamber, and they have to wait for Wu Xie's password here.

The tomb chamber was too cold and Zhang Qiling didn't want Zhang Hanyan to stay in this cold place.

A few minutes after entering the tomb, he took her to the passage outside the tomb to rest.

When the others saw them leaving, they had no choice but to follow them. Everyone gathered together and didn't dare to move around.

From the beginning until now, apart from encountering some Miluotu along the way, I have not encountered any other deadly mechanisms.

But this does not mean that there are no mechanisms here that can take their lives.

Although it was their first time here, they were well aware of the dangers of the Zhang family's ancient building.

After all, for a family that is cautious enough to leave the keys to their house so far away, their final resting place will definitely not be simple.

Huo Xiangu originally thought that this time, Wu Xie and Jie Yuchen would be able to send the photos over quickly, but they waited for a day and a night and still did not receive any of their photos.

Three days later, the anxious Huo Xiangu finally got the photo. After comparing the photo, Zhang Qiling opened the third stone door.

There was no forward passage behind the stone door, so they walked directly into another tomb chamber. On the right side of the tomb chamber was the first ordinary stone door, which had no relief patterns or pressable fragments.

"It seems that if we want to open this stone door, we have to rely on ourselves. Let's split up and look for any mechanism or something."

After the fat man shouted loudly, everyone scattered like birds and beasts and checked every corner around the tomb.

Zhang Hanyan and Zhang Qiling stood quietly where they were and watched them work. The end of this tomb could be seen at a glance, and there was no need to go through so much trouble.

The tomb chamber was empty. At first glance, one could only see a stone platform about one person tall sunken into the stone wall.

In the center of the tomb, the pattern of a Qilin stepping on a ghost is lifelike.

Zhang Qiling walked over, squatted and stared at the pattern. The flaming unicorn was majestically stepping on the little ghost under its feet. There were two round holes where the little ghost's eyes should be.

He looked down at his fingers, then looked up at the concave stone platform, frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly inserted his finger into the round hole and turned the mechanism below.

After turning the mechanism, the concave stone platform did not change at all. Everyone felt that the pattern on the ground had nothing to do with that stone platform.

"It hasn't changed. Could it be that it is just for decoration?"

The fat man muttered softly, and Zhang Qiling remembered the records about the Zhang family's ancient building that he had seen in the library in the clan leader's courtyard.
