I'm full of rebellion against fate

Chapter 432: Stealing Hole



Chapter 432: Stealing Hole

Since Dongfang He can choose the cemetery, he might as well choose a cemetery that can connect with the tomb robbers. This way he can be more involved, and they can't see him, so he just needs to follow behind them.

Chang Ningchen was dragged by Dongfang He to a deserted place in the suburbs. Although they were not on the same timeline, he was still a little worried because the surroundings were so dark and desolate.

Just then two cars drove over from a distance, and the men who got out of the cars went up the mountain with tools.

Dongfang He and Chang Ningchen followed these sixteen people openly, since none of them could see them anyway.

After following them for a while, Chang Ningchen saw a hidden hole on the ground. The leading man looked very excited and said that today was an auspicious day according to him and they would definitely return with a full load today!

Everyone was very happy. They planned to use explosives to blow up the tomb wall first, and then go down to the tomb to get the treasure.

"boom!"

After the explosion, two people went down first, and the others supported them from above. However, after waiting for a long time, there was no movement from below. The man in the lead was obviously unable to wait any longer. He felt that those people must be working hard down there. He was worried that something might happen if he went too late, so he hurried down with another companion.

Chang Ningchen was also very curious about what those people saw below, so he pulled Dongfang He down the tunnel. The tunnel was dug more than ten meters down from the top of the mountain, and then dug more than ten meters vertically. It took several minutes just to walk to the digging site.

After finding the people, Chang Ningchen didn't expect that they were lying next to the bombed pile of earth.

"You didn't even go into the cemetery?"

As soon as Chang Ningchen finished speaking, the four people suddenly turned their heads and looked at him!

"?!"

Chang Ningchen and Dongfang He were both startled, and then they heard someone shouting from above: "Mr. Zhao?! Mr. Zhao!"

Looking back, Chang Ningchen found that the four people had fallen to the ground and seemed to have fainted. The scene of them looking at him just now might have been his illusion!

Dongfang He checked the situation and said, "This tunnel is not ventilated. The explosion just now consumed the oxygen here and produced a large amount of carbon monoxide. When the people came down, they inhaled carbon monoxide. In the absence of ventilation, they will fall into a coma in 5-10 minutes."

Chang Ningchen shook his head and said, "It seems that this group of people is very unprofessional!"

Dongfang He smelled the scent of alcohol on several people and speculated, "These people have been drinking, and they were very excited when they went up the mountain. This shows that this is the tomb they have been looking forward to for a long time. The anesthetic effect of alcohol has amplified their greed, causing them to lose their minds and jump into this tomb that leads to death."

Chang Ningchen nodded and said, "So people shouldn't be too greedy. If you want to touch someone else's tomb, you might end up touching your own tombstone instead."

The people above who didn't hear the noise panicked and quickly pulled several people up. The two people who went in first were already dead, but the leader and the man who went in later were still breathing.

The group of people who were originally just tomb robbers were now in a panic when they found out that someone had died. After all, they were not extremely vicious people. They wanted to make money but not kill people.

The remaining twelve people were divided into two groups. One group buried the dead, and the other group took the still-breathing ones to the hospital for emergency treatment.

"Alas... the tomb-robbing drama has turned into a murder drama."

Chang Ningchen watched a group of people digging a hole to bury the bodies, and couldn't help but look at Dongfang He.

Dongfang He touched his chin and said, "Not bad. Isn't it more exciting to combine detective work with archaeology?"

Since it takes a month for Dongfang He to switch to the cemetery world, they don't want to waste this opportunity so they can only wait.

Fortunately, the public security organs and archaeologists entered the mountains together soon after, and the archaeological work officially began.

But this tomb is very hidden and archaeological experts have to survey it before excavating it. Seeing more and more staff members joining in, Dongfang He knows that the first step of survey may not be completed in just one month.

Chang Ningchen sat by the pond on the top of the mountain and said to it boredly, "Pond! Pond! Do you know who is buried beneath you?"

Then a voice answered: "The one buried beneath me is the King of Jiangdu."

"What the hell?! A pond can actually talk?!" Chang Ningchen looked at the pond with only slight ripples in his eyes with a confused look on his face.

The voice said angrily, "I'm not a pond, I'm a thief's hole!"

"puff!"

Chang Ningchen looked at the large square pond in front of him. Although he knew it was dug by humans, it looked very much like a pond used for raising fish and shrimps. It was not big, but it was not small either!

This group of tomb robbers is really amazing! They were able to dig such a big pond hole!

The voice replied proudly, "The people who dug me out weren't like those thieves a few days ago. They brought an army with them!"

Chang Ningchen touched his chin and thought. If it was the army, he heard that Yuan Guangtou had done the same thing. After all, during the warlord period, there was a shortage of money and the country's economic development was lagging behind, so tomb robbing became the choice of some warlords.

He speculated, "Maybe it was dug out during the war between warlords? The kind where soldiers with guns wear peaked caps."

The voice replied, "When I showed up, there was still a mausoleum here. The one who brought me here was called a tomb raider...something like a lieutenant."

"What the hell?! The period of Cao Cao?! The tomb owner must have been robbed!" Chang Ningchen estimated that the tomb under his feet was a mess. After all, it was a military tomb robbed a thousand years ago!

The voice replied, "Don't worry! The King of Jiangdu is very capable. They didn't take much with them."

Chang Ningchen asked curiously, "How did you know?"

The voice replied, "The burial objects below told me they are still lying there peacefully, and super crowded!"

Chang Ningchen heaved a sigh of relief after hearing Daodong's words. He then asked, "Who is the King of Jiangdu? You hear him called the King of Jiangdu a lot in this place!"

The robber asked, "Does King Liu Bi of Wu know about this?"

Chang Ningchen thought for a moment and said, "Is it the son who was killed by the chess master because he made a big mistake while playing chess and reminded the chess master that the chess pieces were not placed on the lid of the chess box?"

The robber was filled with questions and asked the burial object that knew about this. The burial object replied, "That's not true. How could that bastard be worthy of playing chess with the Han chess master! If he dared to do that in front of the late king, I would have demolished the entire place! It was because Prince Liu behaved improperly and was too arrogant that the late king couldn't stand it and smashed him to death!"

Feeling that what they said was more or less the same, since they were all killed anyway, the tomb robber replied: "It is indeed that person, but the owner of the tomb below is the King of Jiangdu who quelled the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms instigated by the King of Wu and obtained this fiefdom."

After listening to this, Chang Ningchen nodded. The original owner, Shen Chen, had accumulated a lot of archaeological knowledge. After hearing what Daodong said, he knew who was buried underneath.

To be honest, the feeling of seeing the characters in history books from books and digging into the characters in history books with your own hands is very different. It is as if the words in the history books collide with reality, and the people in the distant stories come to you.
