Tomb Raider: Call Me Dragon Vein Cleaner

Chapter 280 The Golden Tent for Immortality

One of the wall surfaces here has a completely different texture from the surrounding area.

Although everything is black, this particular spot is shiny and stands out especially under the light.

"There really is a problem, let's go take a look!"

After Huo Ling finished speaking, she pulled Cheng Feng to the front of this special wall.

Because the wall was covered with a thin layer of frost, cold air was constantly sinking down.

Yang Xueli shone her flashlight along the edge of the area and quickly discovered a tiny gap between it and the surrounding walls.

"It's a stone slab, but there might be something blocking it inside!"

After tentatively kicking the ground with the sole of her shoe, Yang Xueli turned around and said to Cheng Feng and the others.

Cheng Feng gestured for Yang Xueli to step back a little.

Then he kicked the special wall with great force.

In an instant, the entire special area suddenly sank into the wall, and after a loud bang, the stone slab in front of it shattered.

The broken support column inside was exposed.

"This stone slab isn't very thick; it's just that the stone pillar behind it is blocking it."

Old Cheng's kick landed squarely on the stone pillar; otherwise, opening this place would have been much easier.

Seeing the situation inside, Chen Wenjin quickly analyzed the general situation.

Cheng Feng casually waved his hand, sending a gust of wind into the passage, and then said:

"There's no difference; it's all just a matter of one kick for me!"

Then Cheng Feng looked up and walked into the dark passage hidden below the Corpse Bone Gully.

The passage was very narrow and the surrounding craftsmanship was very rudimentary, with nothing but some stone pillars for support.

The ground and walls are all original soil layers, but because they are dry enough, they are relatively well preserved.

"Old Cheng, this is very likely the secret passage through which the person who supervised the construction of the imperial tomb escaped."

If we go this way, won't we be leaving the tomb directly?

In the tomb passage, Yang Xueli walked beside Cheng Feng and spoke.

The other three women also had the same doubts. This passage was obviously an escape route built by the craftsmen when the tomb was built.

They haven't even found the main burial chamber yet, so leaving like this is a bit hasty.

"Didn't you notice? This passage leads to the inner side of the large circle. Although I don't understand why the escape route is built in this direction,..."

But we can save some effort; once we reach a suitable location, we should be able to confirm the main tomb's location by using excavators and shovels around the perimeter.

After hearing Cheng Feng's explanation, they realized what had happened. They had been wandering around the tomb for too long and hadn't realized it at first.

Now, upon careful recollection, I realize that, just as Cheng Feng said, this passage leads directly into the interior of the great circle.

As the five people entered the depths of the secret passage, the altitude began to drop sharply ahead.

For the first ten meters or so, I could walk by bending over and stooping, but for the next ten meters or so, I had to crouch and inch my way over.

Near the exit, the width was so narrow that only one person of average build could crawl across it.

Standing still, Cheng Feng turned to look at the four women and said:

"If you want to relax, go to Evil Luo Sea City; if you want to experience crawling in the shadows, stay here."

Cheng Feng's choice was very humane, taking into full account the wishes of the girls.

However, Chen Wenjin and the others weren't so pretentious as to stay and climb over with Cheng Feng.

Seeing this, Cheng Feng expressed his respect and then continued walking forward.

The group seemed to have undergone a process of human regression, quickly going from walking upright to bowing and bending over.

Then, squat down with your hands on the ground and walk forward.

Finally, Cheng Feng led the way, climbing step by step to the finish line.

The exit here was blocked by a square blue brick. Cheng Feng first pushed it.

Finding that there was still something blocking the way outside, he had no choice but to lie down and throw a punch.

With a muffled thud, something outside crashed to the ground.

The blue bricks in front of us have also cracked into fragments of various sizes.

Cheng Feng then saw clearly what was blocking the way; it turned out to be a wolf-shaped tomb guardian beast.

The last person who used this escape route was incredibly rude and blocked the entrance.

After climbing out of the passage, Cheng Feng immediately turned around to lend a hand to the four women behind him.

After everyone successfully climbed out, they began to look around at their surroundings.

"Looks like we've found the real deal!"

"This should be the main tomb of Genghis Khan."

Just as the two women said, this tomb chamber looked extraordinary. The first thing that caught the eye was the tennis ball-sized luminous pearl on the ceiling.

The emitted light illuminated the entire tomb chamber as if it were daytime.

In addition, the paint used on the ceiling is real sky blue, and there are some white clouds scattered around.

The luminous pearl is positioned slightly to the east, symbolizing the radiant sun in the sky.

Beneath this sky was a luxurious golden-roofed tent, with a wolf-shaped tomb guardian beast on each side guarding the entrance.

But at this time, only one of the tomb guardian beasts remained, and the other one was right at Cheng Feng and the others' feet.

The entrance to the large tent was open, and in the very center was a golden coffin, which, judging from its dazzling color, was undoubtedly made of real gold.

It is about three meters long, nearly two meters wide, and one and a half meters high. It must have taken a lot of effort just to put this golden coffin here.

In addition, low tables were placed on both sides of the golden tent, on which were displayed various ingredients carved from beautiful jade.

Its carving is lifelike, and all the jade materials used are precious.

Behind these low tables sat twenty lifelike beauties, pale-faced, dressed in gorgeous clothes, and adorned with exquisite and precious jewelry.

The sulda, representing Genghis Khan, stood outside the golden tent, supported by a pure gold tortoise statue.

"Old Cheng, look! There's a corpse over there!"

As Cheng Feng was examining the beautiful women buried with him, Chen Wenjin, who was walking beside him, suddenly spoke up.

Cheng Feng then subtly withdrew his gaze and looked towards the corner of the tomb chamber.

There was a skeleton dressed in armor, its skull crooked and huddled in the corner. Most importantly, its armor was tattered and the breastplate on its chest was deeply dented.

Yang Xueli walked over to the corpse and took out a knife to pick out a piece of armor from the skeleton.

It is engraved with a simple bull-shaped pattern.

"It's certain that this person is the owner of the previous tomb, but it seems that he might prefer the one where Genghis Khan lived."

"Return this piece of armor to the skull," Yang Xueli said, standing up.

Chen Wenjin then walked to the corpse and carefully examined the damaged parts of the armor.

Her expression grew increasingly solemn.

"Almost all the bones in his body were broken, especially in his chest, which were shattered beyond recognition."

Something terrifying in this tomb killed him. Everyone be careful, don't stray too far from Lao Cheng.

After saying this, Chen Wenjin got up and returned to Cheng Feng's side with Yang Xueli, looking around warily.
