I am a super cop

Chapter 2686 Under the Altar

After the cables at both ends were fixed, Gu Chen began to ask everyone to cross the slippery and narrow section of the rift valley.

Thanks to Gu Chen's assistance with the cables, everyone's safety was fully guaranteed.

Everyone used the buckle, fastening one end to their belt and the other end to the cable.

In this way, everyone passed this dangerous section in an orderly manner.

"Oh my god, that was so dangerous just now. My feet even slipped."

"Me too, the ground is too slippery."

"Fortunately, we have the ropes fixed by Director Gu."

"You can imagine how much courage Director Gu and his team had to pass this road when they first started. And they knew nothing about the situation inside at that time."

“This requires extraordinary courage.”

……

After passing this dangerous section, many team members who entered the cave for the first time began to whisper to each other.

They also want to divert each other's tension through this way of communication.

Seeing this, Lu Weiwei also said jokingly, "Okay, okay, it's such a small place, you guys are so nervous, you will get used to it after walking a few times."

Turning her head to look at the strong rope, Lu Weiwei said again: "Let's fix the rope here, everyone follow."

As soon as the words fell, everyone immediately began to organize the team. After making sure that everyone had passed this section, everyone began to follow Gu Chen and continued to walk deeper into the cave.

Along the way, Gu Chen asked Xu Yaxuan to follow him and kept an eye on Xu Yaxuan's situation.

Seeing Xu Yaxuan's gloomy face, Gu Chen also asked jokingly:

"Xu Yaxuan."

"Ah?" Xu Yaxuan's expression froze and he turned to look in the direction of Gu Chen.

"What's wrong? Are you a little unhappy about digging out those burial objects?" Gu Chen asked in a relaxed tone.

  "No, no." Upon hearing this, Xu Yaxuan immediately waved his hand to deny it:

"That's not the case. These things were not originally mine. Now that I have found them, they can be considered as returning them to their original owners."

"Besides, I only heard about these things from my dad. I haven't seen them myself."

With a faint sigh, Xu Yaxuan said, "Actually, I also want to dig these things out and take a look. After all, they were buried by my father himself."

While looking at Gu Chen, Xu Yaxuan also forced a smile and said, "That's all. After all, compared to these burial objects, I value my life more. These things are unlucky."

"If I take these ill-gotten gains, I'm afraid I won't have an easy life, so it's better to hand them over."

"It's good that you have this awareness. It means that you are not blinded by these things." Seeing that Xu Yaxuan was very good at speaking, Officer Wang couldn't help but praise him.

But Xu Yaxuan was still quite modest. He scratched the back of his head and said with a wry smile:

"It was only after I was kidnapped that I realized that these things seemed to have some kind of magical power."

"Magic?" After hearing Xu Yaxuan's words, Yuan Shasha, who was walking, was also very curious and asked hurriedly:

"What kind of magic power are you talking about?"

"That's right, the kind that can make people obsessed." After a pause, Xu Yaxuan continued:

"For example, my dad's master had a very good relationship with my dad before, and even asked my dad to recognize him as his godfather. From then on, we were like father and son, sharing happiness and hardships."

“But after these accompanying items were unearthed, the master’s mind seemed to be possessed by a demon. He instantly became a completely different person.”

"They were father and son before, but later he wanted to kill my dad. Fortunately, my dad was tough and didn't succeed. In the end, he fell into the rift valley by himself. It can be regarded as retribution."

  At this point, Xu Yaxuan shook his head and said as he walked:

"And this time, I clearly promised that if we find these buried funerary objects, I can share them equally with the two guides."

"But when they heard that the burial objects were worth a fortune, the kidnapper began to have his own ideas."

"He started to be unwilling to share the wealth with us, and began to distance himself from his teammates. In the end, there was even an argument between the two of them."

With a sigh, Xu Yaxuan said helplessly: "The last person just killed his own teammates."

"To be honest, when I saw the bloody scene, I was completely stunned and speechless."

After he finished speaking, Xu Yaxuan also stopped, turned his head to look at everyone, and continued:

"Can you understand what happened? Someone was killing someone right in front of you. I was so scared that I wanted to run away, but my legs and feet were not under my control."

"It was as if these legs were not my own. I struggled desperately, but they were so frightened that they wouldn't move at all."

"It wasn't until that person came up to me and asked me to continue leading the way that I could barely walk a few steps."

Having said this, Xu Yaxuan also covered his face with his hands, took a deep breath, and tried to adjust his breathing rhythm, and then he said:

"The scene at that time was so horrifying, and it just confirmed what my father had told me before."

"He said that anyone facing these treasures would lose their minds, become extremely greedy, and eventually kill each other."

"What he said is absolutely right. The situation he encountered at that time happened to me again."

"Fortunately, my father had given me some guidance before, telling me not to panic and to stay calm when encountering such a situation."

"You need to calm down before you can make a long-term plan. This means showing weakness to the other party and indicating that you are not a threat."

"Wait for the right moment, when the other party lets down their guard, then fight back and give yourself a chance to survive."

At this point, Xu Yaxuan began to become a little depressed, and choked up as he said:

"You know what? When I was facing this situation alone, I was so scared that I almost forgot what my dad said."

"Fortunately, I finally remembered my father's hand. At this time, no matter what, I must not reveal the burial location of the burial objects."

"Because once I tell them the location, I will be of no use to them. They will definitely try to get rid of me, and my life will be in danger."

"In the end, this thing really came true. I deliberately didn't tell him the location, so he didn't dare to do anything to me."

"After all, for the sake of the wealth I mentioned, he has killed his companions."

"If he can't find those burial objects from me, then he won't let me go."

"But you are safe in the end, aren't you?" Lu Weiwei said comfortingly as she listened to Xu Yaxuan's accusations.

Xu Yaxuan nodded silently: "Yes, if I were given another chance, I would definitely not come here again. It would be nice to let those collections stay here forever."

"At least this way I'm safe, and so are the people I meet."

"In a relationship without any interests tied to it, there wouldn't be so much killing. All of this was caused by the accompanying collections."

"Those collection items have already taken the life of my father's master, and also the life of the guide who accompanied me to the cave." "I really don't know whose life these things will take next? I am even a little afraid of this kind of things now, and even feel that these things are not clean at all."

"If anyone gets infected, they will probably turn into another dark version of themselves."

"My dark self? Haha, Xu Yaxuan, you don't have to be too nervous. Really, it's not that serious."

"If you are a righteous person, then this evil thing will not be able to get close to you. You just need to take us to the specific location."

Seeing that Xu Yaxuan was acting weird, Lu Weiwei also hurried to comfort him.

After all, although Xu Yaxuan is young, he speaks very well.

Moreover, after previous analysis, we found that the deaths of the two guides were most likely caused by the same murderer.

After all, what happened at that time? No one knows, because everyone who experienced it is dead.

Therefore, everyone was reserved about the situation Xu Yaxuan described and did not dare to take it too seriously.

And they have to be on guard against Xu Yaxuan at all times. After all, in everyone's eyes, Xu Yaxuan is the most dangerous person.

Especially Gu Chen, who had already seen all of this.

In Gu Chen's opinion, Xu Yaxuan is a person who is very good at taking advantage of human weaknesses.

She must have some extraordinary means to be able to survive until now.

And in Gu Chen's opinion, her seemingly weak appearance was definitely fake.

After all, Xu Yaxuan's father had taught her how to pretend to be weak.

So Gu Chen had reason to suspect Xu Yaxuan.

After walking through the cave, a light appeared in front of Gu Chen's eyes.

At this time, Gu Chen discovered that it was the light from outside the cave in the distance that was shining in.

Observing the surrounding cave structure, Gu Chen also knew that everyone had arrived at the cave entrance.

"Pay attention." Gu Chen immediately stopped and turned to face everyone.

The people who arrived at the cave entrance one after another began to line up and wait for further instructions from Gu Chen.

"Is everyone here?" Gu Chen looked at the number of people and asked for confirmation.

  Officer Wang quickly counted the number of people, and after confirming it, he reported to Gu Chen:

"Everyone has arrived. All those who entered the cave are already here."

  "Very good." Seeing that everyone had safely reached the river outside the cave, Gu Chen breathed a sigh of relief. Then he came to Xu Yaxuan and asked:

"Xu Yaxuan, how do we leave now?"

"Oh, follow this river and go to that village." Xu Yaxuan said.

"In the village? Isn't there nothing in the village?" After all, she had searched that ancient village, so Lu Weiwei knew very well that there was nothing on the other side of the village.

But Xu Yaxuan shook his head: "Don't worry about this. The map my father drew for me is hidden in my mind."

"I remember that according to the map my father gave me, after he and his master dug out the treasures, they thought about how to transport the treasures out."

“But as soon as he dug it, he immediately felt that it would not be easy to transport the things out.”

"So after discussing it with his master, we decided to bury the things on the spot in a more secret location."

"That way, when I come back next time, I can take these things away for my father."

"Okay." Seeing Xu Yaxuan say this, Gu Chen could only agree:

"Put down the equipment."

"Yes."

Following Gu Chen's order, several police officers began to open the large backpack and took out some inflatable toys from it.

Xu Yaxuan was stunned by this and asked hurriedly, "What is this?"

"A one-person inflatable boat, let's call it that for now." Gu Chen said casually.

Subsequently, several inflatable boats were thrown into the water at the scene.

Several young police officers also boarded the inflatable boat, which had a sufficient carrying capacity in the water.

In this way, everyone started paddling towards the ancient village together.

Soon, everyone arrived at the ancient ferry in front of the ancient village.

After Gu Chen got off the boat, he also began to fix the tools.

After all, these ships may affect whether everyone can get out of the mountains.

"This is the place we have been to before. There is no one living here anymore." Gu Chen introduced the current situation to Xu Yaxuan like a tour guide.

"Yeah." Xu Yaxuan nodded silently, then stood at the ancient pier and began to look for possible clues based on his memory.

Afterwards, everyone followed Xu Yaxuan wherever she went.

When he came to a plaque at the entrance of the ancient village, Xu Yaxuan bowed to the plaque, feeling like he was chanting a sutra.

"Where exactly is it?" Officer Wang looked around and asked curiously.

Xu Yaxuan did not answer Officer Wang's question immediately. Instead, he began to find the locations of some buildings at the entrance of the village based on his memory, which were like coordinates.

Afterwards, Xu Yaxuan successfully remembered the burial location of the accompanying collection based on his ability of rote memorization.

"Follow me." Gu Chen was very excited after receiving this information, and immediately led everyone to an altar in the village.

When Xu Yaxuan led everyone to an ancient shrine overgrown with weeds, his heart skipped a beat and he suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Officer Wang asked curiously when he saw Xu Yaxuan stop.

"No, no. I just remember that my dad told me to follow the route map he drew and search along the way."

"Because when he came here, he felt there was no suitable burial site."

"But then he looked around and felt that burying the things under the altar would be the safest location."

"So, don't tell me that the thing is hidden under the altar?" When Lu Weiwei heard this location, her whole heart skipped a beat.

I thought to myself that your father was really good at hiding things. I originally thought it was a cave or a hill or something, but you ended up burying it under the altar. This is somewhat laughable.

  Xu Yaxuan also noticed everyone's embarrassment, so he quickly explained:

"My dad said that the most dangerous place is the safest place, and those things originally belonged here. They can't be taken away for the time being, so it's good to hide them down there."
