Chapter 74: Wengcheng

 In front of the tomb gate of the Yuan Tomb in Pingshan, a group of people lined up in front of the gate. Wang Ye, who was carrying a peerless sword box, Chen Yulou, who was wearing royal inner armor, and Luo Laowai, who was holding a revolver, stood at the front, with Xie Ling behind him.

The thieves all held straw shields and carried centipedes on their backs on the mountain ladder. Luo Laowai's troops had also smoked enough, and the bullets in their guns were loaded. It can be said that everything is ready now, except for the bad luck in the tomb passage to be dissipated.

.

It wasn't until the sun was high in the sky that all the bad luck in the tomb passage dissipated. This made the Xieling bandits and the engineer excavation battalion who were already ready to go excited. They all looked at the two bosses in front of them with burning eyes, just waiting for an order.

Then set off.

"Let's go!"

Seeing everyone looking impatient, Chen Yulou didn't waste any time. With a wave of his right hand, he entered the tomb passage first, followed closely by Wang. Luo Laowai held a gun and exited the tomb passage as he walked:

"Everyone who moves forward will be rewarded, and whoever retreats will be rewarded with a peanut."

Luo Laowai's men responded loudly, and then everyone entered the tomb passage one after another. They saw that the tomb passage was wide and flat, and could be used for carriages. However, no one knew if there was any mechanism, so Chen Yulou had people release several numbers.

The ten pigeons exploring the path suddenly heard the clicking sound of the mechanism. The next moment, countless arrows were shot from the walls on both sides of the tomb passage, and finally only one pigeon flew back.

"Thank you, grandma. The owner of this tomb is so damn vicious. He almost turned us into hedgehogs. But no matter how cunning you are, you still have to drink the water of our boss, Mr. Chen."

Luo Laowai first scolded the owner of the tomb, and then smiled and flattered Chen Yulou.

‘What a fucking foot-washing water!’

Chen Yulou glanced at Luo Laowai angrily, was too lazy to answer, and led everyone to move on.

Several Xiling bandits holding straw shields opened the way in front, followed by the Xiling bandits holding torches and lanterns for lighting. After walking forward for three to four hundred steps, the tomb passage became wider and could accommodate many people at the same time.

But the road ahead is blocked by a new tomb gate. No, perhaps it is more accurately described as a city gate.

I saw two arched city gates with copper rings, huddled in the city gate opening, with vermilion brick walls on both sides, just like city walls.

Chen Yulou waved his hand, and on both sides behind him were several Xiling bandits wearing mining lamps and holding straw shields. They quickly stepped forward, forming a square formation and advancing little by little, gradually advancing to the city gate.

"Be careful!"

Wang, who had been paying full attention, heard the slight sound of the machine running, and quickly spoke to remind him.

The thieves were not slow to react, and quickly used grass shields in front of them to cover their bodies tightly. The next moment, dozens of black water arrows were seen coming from the tiger's mouth on the wall of the city gate.

It shot out and landed on the grass shield. Suddenly, white smoke came out of the grass shield.

"Sulfuric acid?"

Wang Ye looked at the liquid falling on the grass shield and guessed what it was.

It is said that sulfuric acid was produced by an ancient alchemist from distilled stone gallbladders, and this Pingshan Mountain has been a royal alchemy place since ancient times, so it is not uncommon to find sulfuric acid.

The black water arrows fired one after another, but they were still unable to break through the grass shields in the hands of the Xiling bandits until they finally stopped.

The grass shields in the hands of the bandits in Xieling are filled with several layers of leather, and each layer is sandwiched with soil, so it will not burn when exposed to fire and difficult to penetrate when exposed to saltpeter.

When everyone arrived in front of the city gate, the mute Kunlun broke the iron chain on the city gate with an axe, and several Xiling bandits stepped forward to push the door open.

Fortunately, the city gate inside is different from the one outside, otherwise it would not be that easy to open it.

As the city gate was opened, before they had a chance to take a look at what was inside, everyone heard a sound of howling ghosts and wolves coming from inside.

After hearing this sound, everyone present was frightened, and some even started talking, wondering if there might be any monsters or monsters inside.

"Don't worry, this is not a ghost cry, but the sound caused by the air being squeezed after the city gate is opened."

Wang Ye opened his mouth to explain, then looked at Chen Yulou and said:

"Brother Chen, the situation in this city is unclear. We can't be careless. I think it's better to send someone in to explore the situation first."

Chen Yulou nodded when he heard this:

"Brother Wang is right."

Then he looked at the group of bandits in Xiling.

"Which brother is willing to go and have a look?"

As soon as he finished speaking, several Xieling bandits stood up. Chen Yulou picked five capable ones and asked them to explore the road first.

The five Xieling bandits bowed their hands towards Chen Yulou, turned around and walked into the tomb door.

The crowd watched the five people in an air of fear, for fear of making any noise and scaring the five people into triggering the trap.

After a while, the five Xiling bandits returned safely, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"How was it?"

Chen Yulou asked.

"Going back to the boss, there is a circular city inside with a wind vent and nine coffins. There is also a large coffin hanging with an iron chain in the middle."

One of the five Xiling bandits replied.

"A hanging sarcophagus?"

Chen Yulou murmured after hearing this.

"This boy is very handsome. I only have seven concubines. I have to go in and take a look."

When Luo Laowai heard that there were so many coffins and how many gold and silver treasures there must be, he immediately became excited and couldn't wait to go in to find out. However, he still asked Chen Yulou for his opinion.

"Mr. Chen takes the lead, the time has come to make a fortune, shall we enter or not?"

"Of course I'm going in. I, Chen Yulou, will not let the brothers go back empty-handed."

Recalling the vicious curse on the stone gate just now, Chen Yulou felt a little uneasy in his heart, but the arrow was already on the string and had to be fired. If he ordered to go back at this time, what would be the prestige of the leader of Xiling, but he also kept a cautious eye on it.

, let Huama lead most of the people to wait outside.

Luo Laowai followed suit and asked his adjutant Xiao Yangzi to stay outside to take care of him.

"Brother Wang, do you dare to follow me to explore this ancient city?"

Chen Yulou turned to look at Wang Ye and asked.

"What you wish for."

Wang Ye smiled and nodded.

If he doesn't go, what if Chen Yulou reveals that he is in Wengcheng?
