Tomb robber: Tuantuan, I am a national treasure!

Zhang Qishan stopped beside an iron gate. With the light of the flashlight, he saw a somewhat scary statue inside, wearing a red coat.

"Stopped?"

Qiqi Tiezui peeked out from behind him and saw the statue: "Tianzun Laomu?"

"What is the Heavenly Mother?"

Jinnian tugged at the hem of Qi Tiezui's clothes, very curious.

"It's Xuan Guan Dao. She is a very important deity in Xuan Guan Dao. Someone placed her here, which means there should be a treasure underneath."

After Qi Tiezui said this, the remaining people's attention shifted to the old man.

The old man looked left and right, then pointed at himself in confusion: "Me?"

"No! It's not me! It must have been done by the workers from before. It really has nothing to do with me!"

Qi Tiezui waved his hand: "It shouldn't be him. This guy probably doesn't even know what this is."

"You can't go in, you can't go in......."

Zhang Rishan smiled slightly: "Will you tell me?"

The old man only felt a hard object pressing against his waist. He dared not move at all. He stammered and began to tell the story again.

"My ancestors were miners here, so I have never left............"

"This mine has always been developed by the Japanese. By my father's generation, we had become workers for the Japanese."

"My father could speak Japanese and had some status, so whenever the Japanese came, he would accompany them in."

"Until one day, they dug a hole in the mine..."

"That mine is from the Qing Dynasty!"

Qi Tiezui was curious. How could this old man know so much?

"How do you know it's a Qing Dynasty cave?"

The old man suddenly sighed: "Oh, my family is in the business of making this. Let alone something from the Qing Dynasty, even if it's from the Qin Dynasty, my father can tell at a glance that it's definitely correct!"

"and then?"

"The Japanese found my father and insisted on going down to the mine to see for themselves. No matter how much we tried to persuade them, they would not listen."

"They went all the way down. My dad said he didn't remember how deep they went. But what impressed my dad the most was the Japanese boss. The road in the mine was not easy to walk, and the distance was so long that even the brothers who went down to the mine had to take a breath. But he didn't feel tired at all. It was obvious that he was well-trained and had real skills!"

Qi Tiezui laughed: "Is it so magical?"

"Forget it, forget it, go on!"

"My father and they walked to the innermost part and saw a door with a sentence engraved on it. The Japanese boss could read and read it out immediately: 'Anyone who enters this door must give up all hope.'"

"Those who enter this door must give up all hope."

"Eh?"

"My father didn't understand it at the time, and I didn't understand it either, and I still don't understand it now."

Qi Tiezui laughed abruptly: "It's strange that you can understand this. This sentence was said by a Western writer, Dante Alighieri. He wrote a book called Divine Comedy, which tells the story of a man's journey through hell. And the sentence I just said is engraved on the gate of hell in the book."

As if inspired by something, the old man continued telling the story without being urged.

"The Japanese wouldn't let my father and his friends in, so they waited at the door, thinking that if they really dug out something good, they would fight for it at all costs. After all, they had been oppressed for so long and had no money. If they didn't make a living, they would starve to death in this mine!"

Zhang Rishan, who was standing nearby, summed it up: "Master Buddha, I always feel that it is not that simple."

Zhang Qishan nodded: "It is indeed not simple. What they are looking for should be something that can help the Japanese do experiments."

He patted the old man on the shoulder and asked with a smile: "And then?"

The old man reluctantly continued, "My father and his friends waited outside for a long time, but they didn't see the Japanese come out."

"They were chatting there, waiting for the Japanese to come out, and then they saw the Japanese leader running out with a few Japanese kids, in a panic, as if they were running for their lives."

"My father stopped them and asked them what was inside, whether it was a treasure or something else. The Japanese man panicked and saw the black fog coming out of the door. He pushed my father aside and threw him to the ground, then ran for his life."

"It is said that they were knocked unconscious by the black fog when they escaped. Since then, the gate has been closed and no one has entered. My father... kept this secret for decades."

"If he hadn't been drunk that day and told me this, I wouldn't have known it."

After hearing what he said, Zhang Qishan shone the flashlight into the cave. He didn't know if it was his illusion, but the eyes of the statue were facing them, as if it was staring at them.

"This black smoke can scare away the Japanese, but I wonder if it can scare us away."

Zhang Qishan shook the door and found that it was rusty. It must have been built for quite a long time.

"Who repaired this door?"

No one answered for a long time. Zhang Rishan finally reacted and patted the old man.

The old man said bitterly: "It's none of my business. It was those Japanese who came back and built it themselves!"

"They're probably trying to protect themselves from what's inside. Everyone, be careful."

Jinnian and the others agreed.

Qi Tiezui saw that Master Buddha wanted to forcefully open the door, and hurriedly stopped him: "Hey, Master Buddha, don't be so impatient! It may take a long time to forcefully open the door, so let me do it!"

Zhang Qishan took a step back, raised his eyebrows, and looked at him quietly, wanting to know what tricks this old man was going to play.

Qi Tiezui said mysteriously, took out a bottle, and showed it around his palm: "The hardest thing must be overcome by the softest thing."

Qi Tiezui poured the liquid in the bottle onto the door lock. After a while, a crackling sound was heard and smoke was coming out of the door. Zhang Qishan pushed the door lightly and it opened.

"Eighth Master is so awesome!" Jinnian's admiring voice rang out, and Qi Tiezui enjoyed it very much, like a little peacock spreading its tail.

Zhang Rishan looked at the arrogant Mr. Ba and exposed him: "Hydrochloric acid."

Qi Tiezui gave him an angry look: "You are the only one who talks too much!"

As soon as a few people entered, the old man was frightened and screamed.

"There are monsters!"

Qi Tiezui followed his gaze and shone the flashlight over there. Jinnian peeked out from behind him and saw a dark mass.

"hair?"

Qi Tiezui was speechless to the old man: "You are worse than a child! You are frightened like this by a ball of hair."

Zhang Qishan and Zhang Rishan asked the other two to keep an eye on the old man while they looked around the mine.

Zhang Rishan walked to the edge of the mine and saw an old generator. He tried it out and pressed the switch inside. Unexpectedly, the generator started to creak and turn. Soon, mining lamps were lit in the dim mine, one by one embedded in the wall.

"Adjutant, that's awesome!"

Qi Tiezui praised it and went to have a look nearby. He finally found a mine, but it was blocked by rocks.

He shouted to Zhang Qishan: "Master Buddha, there is a mine here, but it is blocked."

On the other side, Zhang Rishan also saw one, which was also blocked.

Zhang Qishan looked around and didn't give up.

"There must be a more hidden path. Look carefully."

"Yes!"

The three of them continued to search for the mine. Jinnian sat beside them and looked at the old man.

Seeing that Jinnian was just a child, the old man thought that Jinnian was definitely not as strong as himself who went up the mountain to chop wood every day. He originally wanted to run away directly, but he felt a little uneasy, so he thought about taking the child with him.

In this way, even if the other three people found him, they would not dare to do anything to him.

The old man pointed at an ordinary stone on the ground and said, "Look, young man, what is that?"

Jinnian really listened to his words and turned around to look. The next second, the old man rushed over and strangled him by the neck.

The old man was afraid that he would accidentally break Jinnian's slender neck, so he remembered to relax a little. After all, he was confident that such a child would definitely not be able to beat him.

It was the first time that Jinnian was threatened by someone by the neck like this, and he didn’t quite understand what he wanted to do. The three men last time simply tied him up and gagged him by brute force.

The little old man kept muttering to himself while holding him.

"You are blessed with a good life. Please protect me and we will be fine......"

As luck would have it, Zhang Qishan, who had been exploring in the front, seemed to sense something. He suddenly turned around and shone his flashlight, just in time to see two people entangled together.

He didn't expect that with four of him around, this little old man still wanted to make trouble. He was really a bit bold.

Someone was calling "Master Buddha", but Zhang Qishan didn't respond, so the other two came over to see what was going on, and they saw Xiao Jinnian being held hostage.

Qi Tiezui immediately shouted, "How dare you!"

"Do you think you can touch my young master?"

"Do you know that the last group of people who kidnapped the young master are already dead?"

As soon as these words came out, the old man tightened his grip around Jinnian's neck. He was terrified. He had already tied her up, and if he didn't do anything else and let go of her just because she was scared, wouldn't he seem stupid?

After all, due to some concerns, the three people did not take action directly.

Jinnian understood what he had heard. It turned out that this was also a bad guy who wanted to kidnap her again.

"Bite him."

Jinnian's voice was so low, like a mumbling, that the old man couldn't understand what he was saying.

"What... did you say?"

"Bite him."

The old man heard it clearly this time. Jinnian enunciated the words clearly and pronounced them clearly. He pronounced the two words "dignified" and "integrity" clearly and bit him.

The old man was confused when he heard this voice. Who are you biting? Biting him? What does it mean?

The old man was blocked by Jinnian in front, so he couldn't see clearly. He didn't have the mind to care about the situation around him. He focused all his attention on the three people opposite him, fearing that the three people opposite him would make any move and suddenly kill him.

The other three people could see it clearly.

Jinnian's sleeves suddenly moved, and a hint of emerald green emerged from under his sleeves, crawling down Jinnian's arms little by little and onto his neck.

"Bite him."

The little thing hadn't found a good position the first two times, but this time it had found a good position. It even waited for the old man to turn his head and look at him with a mischievous look before biting him.

The emerald green snake bit the back of the old man's hand. The old man felt a sharp pain in his hand. He let go of his hand in pain. His eyes went black and he fainted on the ground instantly, foaming at the mouth.

The emerald green little snake happily crawled towards Jinnian again, coiled around his legs and moved upwards, and finally crawled into Jinnian's sleeves.

"Wait a minute!"

Qi Tiezui suddenly shouted: "Master Buddha! Didn't you say it's not poisonous?!"

"You lied to me!!!"

Zhang Qishan stepped forward, hooked up the docile little thing wrapped around Jinnian's wrist with his fingers, and observed it carefully.

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. This little thing is indeed a non-toxic species. How could it make the old man fall down with just one bite? It's really strange.

The little snake was hooked up, and it impatiently shook him with its tail, stretched its head, and wanted to return to Jinnian's arms.

Qi Tiezui was on the other side, his face turned green, and he didn't dare to come over for a long time.

"I didn't say he was harmless."

Qi Tiezui was about to refute when he suddenly remembered that everything before was just his guess. Suddenly, his face couldn't be darker.

Zhang Qishan patted Jinnian's head. Originally, they should have been worried about this poisonous creature staying with their young master, but seeing that the little snake took the initiative to bite the old man just now, it seemed that the little snake listened to Jinnian very much.

Jinnian smiled and happily showed them her new snake bracelet. It seemed that she was getting along well with the little green thing.

Zhang Rishan trusted the decision of Master Buddha very much, and he also saw that the little snake really liked Jinnian.

There was just one thing he didn't quite understand. This little snake was clearly a non-toxic species, so how could it make the old man fall down with just one bite? It was very strange. Could it be a hybrid?

Zhang Rishan felt that he needed to go back and study hard, after all, Xiao Jinnian seemed to like it very much.

The only one who was unhappy was probably Qi Tiezui. The young master was really his benefactor. He was very blessed. If Xiao Jinnian wasn't here, would the snake bite him? He didn't have the confidence that the snake would like him.

Another person who was not very happy was probably the unconscious old man. He was foaming at the mouth and his face was pale, even paler than that of Xiao Jinnian.

However, after Qi Tiezui took a look at him, he felt relieved. He had seen a black spot on his forehead before, and he was worried that something bad would happen in the mine ahead. Now it was really his retribution.
