Tomb Raider: I, at the beginning, took Fatty Lao Hu as my younger brother

"It's such a sin that such an ancient tomb with great research value has been ruined!" Professor Chen said sadly as he looked at the empty and damaged tomb.

"Teacher, let's carry out rescue excavation immediately!" Professor Hao hurriedly comforted.

"Hey, what kind of tomb is this? There's nothing in it!"

The fat man looked around, but found nothing there. He felt unhappy.

"If you were a tomb robber, would you leave anything for the next person to come?" Professor Hao said.

When Zhou Xun saw the fat man, he wanted to refute him. But what was the difference between refutating him and self-destructing?

He immediately shouted, "Fatty, stop talking and don't disturb the professors from working!"

The fat man was shocked, and when he thought about what he was about to say just now, he broke out in a cold sweat.

He quickly shrank to the side and didn't dare to speak easily.

"Professor Chen, what kind of tomb is this?" asked Lao Hu.

Chapter 34 Foreign Tomb Robbers

"From the structure of the tomb chamber, the materials and craftsmanship of the coffin, it can be seen that this is a typical stone tomb from the Wei and Jin Dynasties, and it is also a family tomb."

"This should have been buried deep in the desert. Maybe because of the big sandstorm a few days ago, part of the stone tomb was exposed. It seems that these tomb robbers came prepared, otherwise they wouldn't have arrived at such a coincidence. We are a step late!"

Professor Chen looked around and analyzed every detail left in the tomb.

"So these tombs were robbed not long ago?" Shirley Yang asked.

"Yes, definitely!" Professor Chen nodded affirmatively.

"Professor, there is a mummy here!"

Chu Jian shouted, pointing at an opened coffin.

When everyone walked in to take a look, they saw that there was indeed one body left. They were probably worried that they had taken too many things and couldn't take them out.

"This is the body of a young woman," said Professor Chen.

"What can they do with these mummies?"

The fat man was extremely confused. For a novice tomb raider, taking gold, silver and treasures was understandable, but taking corpses was beyond his comprehension.

"It's about making money. Now many overseas collectors like to collect mummies. It can be said that they think some mummies that have been well preserved for a long time are more valuable than many antiques!"

"In the special environment of the desert, apart from antiques, gold, silver and treasures, the most valuable things are these mummies," Zhou Xun explained.

"Comrade Xiao Zhou is right. This kind of mummy has been particularly popular overseas in recent years!" said Professor Chen.

The fat man was confused after hearing this.

Are mummies so valuable these days?

Are we in the same industry?

I'm afraid I've chosen the wrong career?

"This kind of mummy? Are there different types of mummies?" Lao Hu asked puzzledly.

"Globally, there are several types of mummies. Some are made by placing desiccants such as lime and charcoal in coffins, while others are made by using special embalming techniques like those used in ancient Egypt."

"And our XJ mummies were formed completely in a high-temperature, dry, and sterile environment. Just like Comrade Xiao Zhou said, the ones that are a little older are quite valuable!"

"Those overseas museums, exhibition halls and collectors all buy them at high prices!" Professor Chen said angrily.

"It seems that the notes of countryman Y are really reliable!" said the fat man in surprise. Shirley Yang had told everyone about the contents of the notebook, and the information about the stone tomb was recorded on it. The careful fat man always remembered it.

"Following the current route, after passing this joint tomb, we will be not far from the ancient city of Jingjue." Shirley Yang said happily.

The archaeologists who were working became excited when they heard this.

"This should just be an ancient tomb they happened to come across. Their real purpose is probably the same as ours, which is the ancient city of Jingjue!" Zhou Xun said.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone who was originally surprised suddenly calmed down.

Next, everyone took notes, completed their research, and returned to the ground.

In the evening, Zhou Xun and Fatty Lao Hu were smoking and chatting aside.

While Fatty and Lao Hu were chatting, he opened the attribute panel.

【Ding! The host properties panel has been opened successfully.】

64 cubic spaces: Fa Qiu Tian Yin, some supplies and cash, some antique gold, silver and jade articles from the Nine-story Demon Tower, and some antique gold, silver and jade articles from Prince Gumo's tomb.

Seeing that the space was still 64 cubic meters, Zhou Xun was confused.

"System, didn't I just enter an ancient tomb? Why didn't the system space change?"

[Ding! You must take away the burial objects in the ancient tomb. Even one item will increase the system space.]

Zhou Xun immediately understood that he had entered an empty tomb, so there was no reward...

But it’s okay, there is no gain or loss, so it’s no big deal.

At this time, Professor Chen came over with Professor Hao and Shirley Yang and said to Zhou Xun: "Comrade Xiao Zhou, judging from the traces of the method used in the stone tomb this afternoon, this ancient tomb was probably stolen no more than 10 days ago."

"Ah?" Old Hu was suddenly shocked.

"So what do you mean?" Zhou Xun asked.

"What the teacher meant was that he thought what you said this afternoon was right. The real purpose of this gang of tomb robbers is also to find the ancient city of Jingjue, and they are already ahead of us," Professor Hao explained.

Professor Chen nodded and continued, "So we have to hurry forward. If they catch up with us and reach Jingjue Ancient City first, who knows what bad things they will do!"

"I agree with Professor Chen that we must speed up the process," said Shirley Yang.

"Those foreigners have explosives and maybe guns. It'll be a bloody fight if we meet them!" The fat man looked at Zhou Xun and said.

"We must dare to fight against all evil forces that destroy our cultural heritage!" Professor Hao vowed.

"Okay, then let's rest early and set off tomorrow morning." Zhou Xun said.

Hearing Zhou Xun's agreement, Professor Chen, Professor Hao, and Shirley Yang happily went back to invite everyone to rest.

.......

Chapter 35 Continue to search for the Magnetic Mountain

Early the next morning.

After finishing breakfast early, everyone set out to continue their search for the Jingjue Ancient City.

There was no special scenery along the way, nothing but yellow sand.

Everyone was visually fatigued and walked forward in a daze.

Below, everyone has been traveling for several days.

The water resources, which were already scarce, are now even less.

Under the scorching sun, the group continued on their journey through the desert.

Now everyone is hot, tired and thirsty!

"Xiaoye, Xiaoye."

Xiao Sa looked at Xiao Ye who was drowsy on the camel and shouted hurriedly.

"Ah? What's wrong?"

After being called by Xiao Sa, Xiao Ye became more energetic.

"Are you okay?"

Looking at Xiaoye's listless appearance, it seemed like he was not thirsty but sick, Xiaosa asked with concern.

"It's okay, I just feel weak!" Xiao Ye said weakly.

"Are you sick? If you feel uncomfortable, you must tell me." Xiao Sa said.

"It's really okay! I guess I just didn't get enough rest. I'll be fine in a while." Xiao Ye forced himself to cheer up and said with a smile.

"If you feel uncomfortable, don't force yourself. If you want to drink water, come to me. I have some here. Okay!" Xiao Sa had no choice but to say helplessly.

"understood."

After saying that, he suddenly remembered something and said quickly, "Don't tell anyone else. I don't want anyone to worry about me."

Xiao Sa was a little embarrassed, but still said: "Okay, I can keep it secret now, but if your condition gets more serious, I can't hide it anymore."

"Do not worry."

Unlike the two people here, the fat man talked to Lao Hu about the treasures of the Jingjue Ancient City.

After they walked for a while, Anliman suddenly stopped and looked at the desert ahead.

"Xiao Zhou, why did you stop?" Professor Chen said weakly.

"I'll go and take a look." Zhou Xun stopped the camel and walked towards Anliman.

"What's wrong, uncle?" Shirley Yang walked up to Anliman and asked.

"I can't see the traces of the Zidu Dark River clearly anymore. If you go further, you will definitely not be able to see the traces. By that time, I really can't help you!" Anliman said with difficulty.

"We are not far from the Jingjue Ancient City. Even if there are no traces, we still have the compass in our hands and the route map in our notebook. We should be able to find it. No matter what, I have to move forward."

"For such a large ruins of the Jingjue Kingdom, there must have been underground rivers or water in the past. Even if the ground has dried up, the underground water veins may not have dried up. There must be clues." Shirley Yang became a little anxious.

"Girl, don't be anxious. I mean, we have been walking for most of the day and we should be able to see the sacred mountain Zagrama..." Anliman looked at the anxious Shirley Yang and comforted her.

"Uncle!" Shirley Yang interrupted.

"Okay, let's walk forward, maybe we can see the sacred mountain." Anliman said.

"Okay, thank you uncle." Shirley Yang thanked.

"We've walked a lot today, let's take a break."

After Zhou Xun finished speaking, he began to ask everyone to get off their camels, set up camp, and have a good rest.

Then he pretended to take out two bottles of water and a bottle of wine from his backpack and said, "Everyone come here. Here are two bottles of water and a bottle of wine. Share them. Drink the water first. If you feel tired, drink some wine."

When everyone heard that there was water and wine, they hurried over.

"Old Hu, give some to everyone, and drink it all!" Zhou Xun said.

"Okay!" Old Hu said with a smile.

"Hahaha, Uncle Zhou, you are really capable. I was wondering why you were carrying a bag all the way. Turns out it was full of water and wine." The fat man laughed.

"How much water do you have?" Shirley Yang smiled as she looked at Zhou Xun's bulging backpack.

"I won't tell you." Zhou Xun joked.

When Shirley Yang heard this, she rolled her eyes and turned away to get some water.

Zhou Xun walked up to Ye Yixin, who looked unhappy, and asked, "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, Captain Zhou!"
