Tomb Raider: Evolution of the Red Dragon, Starting from the Ancient City of Jingjue

After a while, Jiang Hua finished checking and confirmed that there was nothing around that could endanger their lives. He then turned around and waved to Qin Feng and Yun.

"You can come in."

Qin Feng and Yun immediately came in after hearing what Jiang Hua said.

At that moment, Jiang Hua heard their footsteps.

The muffledness of Qin Feng and Yun's footsteps was different.

Logically speaking, Qin Feng is quite heavy, so his voice should be deeper. But why is it that Yun's deep voice is louder?

Yun walked up as if she were a burly man weighing over 200 pounds, but Qin Feng walked up as if she were a light and graceful girl, or even as if she were a toddler.

These things made Jiang Hua frown. Qin Feng and Yun looked at Jiang Hua with a frown and were also puzzled.

"What's going on here?"

"Go back and listen to your footsteps, and you'll know."

Hearing Jiang Hua's words, Qin Feng and Yun, though full of doubts, still followed Jiang Hua's advice and retraced the route they had just taken.

And this time they discovered the problem.

"I didn't notice this when I walked over just now. The sound in the middle of the road should be normal."

As Jiang Hua spoke, she walked the same path she had just taken, and this time the sounds she made were perfectly normal.

These three different scenarios left all three of them completely bewildered.

Jiang Hua continued into the room and discovered that it had simply been divided into three parts: the left, the middle, and the right.

"It seems there must be some mystery down there as well."

Jiang Hua squinted at it and glanced at it, just as she had been unable to help but guess.

But now Jiang Hua is too lazy to care what's down there.

Jiang Hua needed to check if the coffin really contained a corpse and treasures, just as he had guessed.

"Qin Feng, come help me."

Although the coffin is not heavy, it takes two people working together to open it.

Moreover, the two of them had to turn to the right on one side and to the left on the other to open the coffin lid. Although they were puzzled by the coffin's structure, they still managed to open it together.

The corpse inside was nothing special; it was just a skeleton.

Beside the corpse lay treasures, which shone brightly in the firelight.

Qin Feng and Yun couldn't help but have their eyes light up when they saw this.

"It seems it really was just a smokescreen..."

Although Jiang Hua was happy to see these treasures, she was also even more certain of her earlier guess.

"Let's pack these things up first. These treasures can fetch a good price if we sell them."

As Jiang Hua spoke, he also took out a bag from his pocket and began to pack the treasures. The three of them packed three bags full.

"I don't think I need to watch any further. With all this stuff, I think I've already broken even this time."

Qin Feng looked at Jiang Hua cautiously and said.

It seemed they wanted Jiang Hua to end the exploration, since these treasures were indeed a great deal. "Although I think so too, there are still many secrets waiting for me to explore, and these have successfully piqued my curiosity. Don't you feel uncomfortable keeping these questions to yourselves?"

Jiang Hua raised an eyebrow and looked at Qin Feng and Yun, saying...

Qin Feng and Yun were both taken aback when they heard Jiang Hua say that.

They certainly thought Jiang Hua's words made sense, but as they went through this process step by step, they also felt the pressure of life.

Although they say they love money, this sense of danger to their lives makes them unable to help but feel afraid.

"Isn't Jiang Hua here? With Jiang Hua here, any problem can be easily solved, and who knows what treasures are waiting for us down there!"

Yun patted Qin Feng on the shoulder and said.

After being encouraged, Qin Feng and Yun hesitated. Seeing their hesitation, he thought for a while and then spoke to them.

"You can leave if you don't want to. After all, I can manage on my own. If you think it's okay..."

Jiang Hua knew what they were worried about, so after thinking for a while, she continued to speak to them.

But now that Qin Feng and Yun heard this, they made up their minds to pack their gear back on their backs and look at Jiang Hua.

"With you leading the team, what do we have to worry about? With you here, it would be foolish of us to leave like this."

Qin Feng quickly followed behind Jiang Hua as he spoke.

Seeing Qin Feng and Yun continue to follow behind her, Jiang Hua nodded, indicating that she understood.

Immediately afterwards, Qin Feng and Yun followed Jiang Hua like two little shadows, going wherever Jiang Hua went.

"Can you two stop clinging to me like this?"

Seeing the two of them like this, Jiang Hua couldn't help but sigh and remind them, but they immediately shook their heads in refusal.

"No, no, what if you accidentally disappear from our sight? Without you, we're basically doomed."

Hearing what they said, Jiang Hua stopped trying to stop them and let them stick to her no matter how much they wanted to.

But now Jiang Hua is looking around, searching for a suitable exit.

The most important thing now is to find a ventilation opening. Once we find that, there's basically nothing else to worry about.

“Since you’re going to follow me, you need to make a difference. Find the ventilation opening. It might be a bit hidden, so be very careful.”

After Jiang Hua finished speaking, Qin Feng and Yun quickly agreed that they understood.

They then left Jiang Hua's presence and began searching for the air vent Jiang Hua had mentioned.

“I can’t find it.”

After searching for a while, Qin Feng and Yun still couldn't find a suitable spot.

So they said to Jiang Hua, somewhat dejected. Actually, Jiang Hua was also a little disgusted and began to doubt the smell she had smelled before.

But after having doubts, the arrival of the event only fueled further doubts, making me wonder if my previous doubts were wrong.

So where does this flavor come from? And how did it come to be?
Jiang Hua returned to the same spot he had been standing in earlier and tapped on the wall next to him.

The thickness of the wall can be discerned from the sound; it cannot be broken by brute force.

Without the right tools, the success rate of breaking through this wall is practically zero. (End of Chapter)
