Tomb raiding: It all started with the kidnapping of Yin Xinyue

"You're a scoundrel, a bastard, and a pervert."

"How old is she? How could you possibly lay a hand on her?"

Li Xiaohu's lips twitched involuntarily, and he suddenly asked, "Are you jealous?"

Yin Xinyue was taken aback upon hearing this, and her voice rose several decibels as she denied it, saying, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"You think too highly of yourself, don't you?"

Li Xiaohu chuckled again and said, "I didn't say you were jealous of me, why are you so nervous?"

He tossed a sachet into Yin Xinyue's arms and instructed her, "Keep this with you; it will keep poisonous insects away."

Then he took a few more steps forward and gave one to the girl in red.

Yin Xinyue stared blankly at Li Xiaohu's figure, holding the sachet, feeling a surge of emotion.

He muttered to himself.

"Damn it, it seems I've been tricked by this scoundrel again."

The bandit gang from the Unloading Ridge gradually penetrated deeper into Old Bear Ridge.

Having learned from yesterday's experience.

We moved much faster today.

In just over an hour, the main force arrived at the opposite bank at the foot of Ping Mountain again.

A mighty river blocked their way.

Ping Mountain has an extremely steep and dangerous terrain.

If the main force wants to reach the foot of the mountain, the only option is to cross the great river in front of them.

However, the river is swift and the banks are full of isolated mountains and ruins. The river channel is winding and meandering for hundreds of meters.

The bandits of the Unloading Ridge did not prepare any boats or rafts.

How to get through this safely seems to have become another problem.

"Damn it!" Old Luo cursed, hands on his hips. "This damn place is so unlucky! Even walking down the street is so difficult!"

Chen Yulou, however, calmly said, "General Luo, don't be anxious."

"There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain."

As she spoke, she raised her hand, and the girl in red understood. She turned around and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Get the grass shield, and the centipede ladder!"

"Build the raft and launch it!"

"Swing it!"

The bandits of the Unloading Ridge responded immediately, taking off their straw shields and centipede-shaped mountain ladders.

Then the centipede-shaped mountain ladder was opened, the grass shield was placed on top, and then they were pieced together.

Not long after.

A "long raft" was completed, looking quite impressive.

The group of thieves slowly lowered it into the water, and it actually floated on the water. Even with several people standing on it, it remained very stable!

Yin Xinyue, not understanding the mystery, exclaimed in amazement, "These things have such wonderful uses?"

Hearing this from the side, Hong Guniang proudly said, "The most practical thing we use in the Unloading Ridge is this centipede-shaped mountain-hanging ladder."

"We can build ladders over mountains and bridges over rivers."

"No matter how complex the terrain, we, the Unloading Ridge team, can traverse it as if it were flat ground!"

Yin Xinyue pouted. Although she didn't want to hear Hong Guniang boast, she didn't refute it.

After all, she saw it yesterday and today.

The Unloading Ridge faction does indeed possess this ability.

The bandits of the Unloading Ridge worked together and quickly built dozens of rafts.

Chen Yulou stepped onto the raft first and said to Luo Laowai, "Commander Luo, please wait here for a moment."

"Chen will first take some brothers to scout ahead. If there is nothing unusual, we will use a signal arrow as a signal."

"Alright!" Old Luo waved his hand.

With someone else taking the lead, he could save himself a lot of trouble, so he readily agreed.

It's not too late to put in the effort once we've actually discovered the treasure.

“Brother Partridge Whistle, Brother Little Tiger.” Chen Yulou looked at the two and gestured for them to follow. “Please.”

Li Xiaohu glanced at the broken walls and ruins on both banks deep in the river, and suddenly reminded him, "Chief Chen."

"This place is perpetually shrouded in darkness, damp and gloomy, and I even smelled a faint demonic aura."

"Brothers, please take your weapons with you, just in case."

If I remember correctly.

There are still many troublesome things ahead.

Chen Yulou turned around and glanced ahead.

Then he nodded and instructed the brothers of the Unloading Ridge to prepare their weapons and light torches.

Having learned from the lessons of the previous encounters on the mountaintop and in the ravine.

He now fully believes what Li Xiaohu said.

Even if we don't encounter any danger, it's always good to be well-prepared now.

The three brothers, Partridge Whistle and his companions, all boarded the raft.

As Chen Yulou's assistant, Hong Guniang naturally had to follow along.

Li Xiaohu originally wanted to leave Yin Xinyue here, but that would leave her alone to face these "fierce and evil" Xieling bandits and Luo Laowai's rogue soldiers.

I thought about it.

They helped her onto the raft and whispered, "If anything happens later, make sure you stay on the raft."

"Mmm." Yin Xinyue nodded obediently and replied, "I know."

"Meow~"

Li Xiaohu's cat jumped onto the raft, and Jin Yunu and the Arhat on the scene felt the water seeping from the gaps in the raft and cried out uncomfortably.

Erhu and Yaohu didn't dislike water at all; on the contrary, they were quite interested in playing in the water by the edge.

Chen Yulou looked around.

Once the advance troops had all caught up, he shouted, "Let's go!"

The brothers of the Unloading Ridge raised long poles.

The raft drifted slowly down the river toward Bottle Mountain.

soon.

The bandits from the Unloading Ridge Group sailed into the river basin, where both banks were filled with broken walls and ruins.

The view suddenly turned dark.

Li Xiaohu and the others looked up.

They discovered that the massive, tilted mountain of Bottle Mountain was looming overhead, blocking most of the sunlight.

The surrounding humidity suddenly increased, and even the temperature dropped significantly.

The group of thieves suddenly felt somewhat oppressed and uneasy.

Chen Yulou frowned and ordered his men to speed up their work.

Ping Mountain is just a few hundred meters ahead; we'll be there soon.

"Meow!"

Jin Yunu, the round-tailed tiger standing at Li Xiaohu's feet, suddenly let out several sharp howls! Its fur stood on end!

The loud sound immediately echoed between the broken walls on both sides.

"Shh~" Li Xiaohu comforted the cats and looked up at the broken walls on both sides of the river.

Chen Yulou turned around and looked at Li Xiaohu with an inquiring gaze.

After these few days of getting along.

He also realized that the cats' meows meant that something was approaching that made them uncomfortable.

Li Xiaohu nodded affirmatively and gestured.
