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

Just when Jiang Hua was at a loss, Qin Feng and Yun were discussing the coffin above.

"If only this place were like that coffin above, with the exit right underneath."

Qin Feng's words also awakened Jiang Hua.

Jiang Hua immediately went to the coffin where his father had been, and carefully pushed it.

Unlike the coffins mentioned above, this one is not made of stone; wood is much lighter than stone.

The sound of sand and gravel scraping against each other rang out as Jiang Hua pushed the gravel.

Seeing Jiang Hua's condition, Qin Feng and Yun quickly came over to help Jiang Hua push the coffin.

"Something is blocking the coffin."

Jiang Hua pushed again, but found that he could not push it any further. He glanced down and found that there was something blocking the way.

It seemed to be deliberately placed there to prevent anyone from touching it, so Jiang Hua continued to squat down to examine what exactly was blocking the coffin.

"This looks like wood."

Qin Feng squatted down and took a look, then looked at Jiang Hua with some confusion.

After all, if it were made of wood, it would likely corrode to some extent if used as a barrier.

But looking at the crisp appearance of this piece of wood, it doesn't look like it's been exposed to dampness at all.

"It seems there must be an air vent here, but we don't know where it is yet."

Jiang Hua's expression changed as she spoke.

"But if they think they can stop me from finding the air vent, they're dreaming. Although the wisdom of the ancients is different from that of modern people, it's still impossible for them to stump me, Jiang Hua."

Jiang Hua hummed softly, feeling frustrated because she couldn't find the airway.

After the wooden blockage was removed, the coffin could be moved.

Just as Qin Feng had said, there was another opening below and a pipe next to it, which seemed to be used for ventilation.

"What a huge project this must be! They actually dug a pipe down there. That's incredible. It must have taken a lot of manpower to do this."

Qin Feng glanced down and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

Jiang Hua glanced down at the commemorative album and noticed that the flavor at the bottom was indeed different from that at the top; the flavor at the bottom had become much fresher.

"I'll go down and take a look. You guys wait upstairs."

Jiang Hua then walked downstairs.

Once we got down there, the walls were indeed a bit thicker than those up there.

Moreover, the materials here are worlds apart from those above.

"You all come down too."

Qin Feng and Yun, upon hearing what Jiang Hua said, also quickly came downstairs.

"Are there no more traps here?"

Qin Feng and Yun were also frightened by the traps above, and said to Jiang Hua with some concern.

Jiang Hua shook his head when he heard Qin Feng's question.

"There shouldn't be any left here. You can tell the walls here are very smooth; if there were, they wouldn't be placed here."

Hearing what Jiang Hua said, Qin Feng and Yun nodded in relief and silently followed behind him. They took out their tinderboxes to light them, but Jiang Hua stopped them.

"Get a flashlight."

Jiang Hua always felt that the smell here was a bit like gas.

For safety's sake, Jiang Hua also took out a flashlight to illuminate the road ahead.

The walls and roads were very smooth, looking just like an old palace, and there were even decorative patterns on the side.

"Could this be the residence of an emperor from some dynasty?"

After glancing at the patterns on the wall beside him, Qin Feng couldn't help but click his tongue in admiration. The exquisite craftsmanship made one wonder if it belonged to an emperor from some dynasty.

"Don't even think about it. How could we possibly have such a good opportunity?"

Yun rolled her eyes at Qin Feng, expressing her disdain for his daydreaming, but Jiang Hua, who was standing next to her, shook her head after hearing this.

"That's not impossible, because these layers are like checkpoints. If it weren't to protect the emperor behind them, there would be no need to make it like this."

Jiang Hua couldn't help but become curious as well.

“If it weren’t for the Emperor, then we would have no reason to continue.”

Jiang Hua's words successfully piqued Qin Feng and Yun's curiosity, making them even more excited.

"If it really is the emperor, then he must have had a lot of things buried with him!"

Qin Feng clenched his fist and said excitedly.

"But don't get too excited yet."

Jiang Hua continued to remind Qin Feng and Yun, fearing that they might accidentally delay things in their excitement.

Qin Feng and Yun nodded after hearing Jiang Hua's reminder, indicating that they understood.

"The patterns here seem to be telling people that if they continue forward, they will die here."

Feeling a bit bored walking along the road, Qin Feng couldn't help but glance at the carvings on the wall next to him.

Hearing Qin Feng say this, Jiang Hua also started to pay attention to the carvings around her.

Indeed, this content seemed to be telling the visitor.

If we continue forward, we will most likely die here.

This made Jiang Hua frown and cautiously continue walking forward.

"Jiang Hua, why don't we go back? I have a feeling that if we keep going, we'll lose our lives here."

This made Qin Feng want to back out again.

"Not in a hurry."

Jiang Hua glanced at Qin Feng and continued walking forward.

Although that's what he said, Jiang Hua was also a little flustered. He couldn't quite grasp the situation and felt anxious.

Jiang Hua had a feeling that something was about to happen, but she didn't know what would happen next.

Click!

Suddenly a voice rang out, causing Jiang Hua and Qin Feng to immediately stop in their tracks.

Did something break just now?

Qin Feng's voice trembled as he asked Jiang Hua in front of him.

Hearing Qin Feng say this, Jiang Hua shook his head, but also looked around very cautiously, because none of the three of them knew where the voice was coming from.

"The walls are starting to move!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Hua immediately turned her head to look at the wall next to her.

Just as Qin Feng had predicted, the walls on both sides slowly moved closer to Jiang Hua and Qin Feng.

This sudden change left Qin Feng and the others at a loss for what to do.

"Run quickly!"

They've already gone quite a distance; it's impossible for them to go any further.

If we continue walking further, we'll likely get crushed into a meat patty by this wall.

So all they can do now is move forward, but they have no idea what lies ahead. However, the current situation only allows them to move forward.

Qin Feng and Yun gritted their teeth, following behind Jiang Hua, and immediately resolved to increase their speed and run forward. (End of Chapter)
