Chapter 925 The Grave Robbers' Chronicles 13
"Blackie? You're blind, and you call yourself a boss?"
"You little girl, who do you think you are?"
Too lazy to argue about that topic, Gu Wusi brought up the previous one.
"Heh, I was also thinking, were you following me? You followed me all the way from Beijing to Hainan, sneaking around in a small boat not far from the yacht."
She's always been very good at turning the tables on others.
"You think I was following you, so you capsized my boat? Bullying a disabled person deserves compensation for emotional distress."
Hei Xiazi was a little puzzled. He hadn't sensed anyone coming while he was on the boat.
How exactly did she manage to capsize her own boat all by herself?
"Tell me first, why are you following me?"
Gu Wusi knew he wasn't with her, but that didn't stop her from accusing someone.
Upon hearing this, Black Bear laughed: "Who said I came with you? I just came to enjoy the sea breeze."
"You've been blown all the way to the ocean by the wind? Aren't you afraid of drowning here and never being able to get back?" Gu Wusi said sarcastically.
"Tsk, this young lady has a sharp tongue; she speaks so rudely."
Gu Wusi appeared to be talking to him, but he was actually paying attention to the other people.
She could sense where everyone was.
Without saying much, she put on the hood and dived back into the water.
"Hey, you can't go that way." Black Bear saw her and tried to pull her back, but he couldn't.
I saw the direction she was swimming, going in that direction...
He dropped his playful expression: "Is he going to his death?"
Who is this person? She looks like a spoiled rich girl, but how come I keep running into her?
Hei Xiazi thought for a moment, rubbed his hair, put on his gear, and went into the water.
Gu Wusi timed it perfectly; just as the mechanism to enter the underwater tomb was activated, she was swept in along with the others.
It looked like an accident, but it was actually timed perfectly.
After emerging from the water, she was the first to climb ashore.
While the others were still in the water, using flashlights to observe their surroundings.
Gu Wusi removed the hood and other equipment: "What kind of place is this?"
"How come there's another person who's sneaked in?"
The fat man was originally going to complain about Zhang the Bald man pressing the mechanism, but his attention was diverted because there was another person there.
"Miss Gu, how did you get in?" Wu Xie was surprised to see her.
"I was diving just now when I was suddenly sucked up by a suction force, and then I ended up like you guys."
Then, before they could ask anything, Gu Wusi promptly changed the subject.
"How come there's a place like this in the water? What are you doing here?"
Wu Xie hesitated for a moment, thinking that since the person had already come down, there was no way to hide it anymore.
He told the truth: "We are here to find someone, my third uncle. He lost contact with the outside world at sea. This place is an underwater tomb."
"You came to the tomb to look for someone? Is your third uncle a tomb raider? Or are you all tomb raiders?"
After Gu Wusi finished speaking, he stood on the shore and looked down at them with a suspicious gaze.
Upon hearing this, Wu Xie quickly explained, though his tone was somewhat awkward: "We're not tomb raiders, we're here to find someone and...do some archaeology on the side."
“Yes, we’re not tomb raiders, we’re here to protect cultural relics,” the fat man immediately chimed in.
"You two come up here first," Zhang the Bald said, changing the subject as they talked while still in the water.
Upon hearing this, Wu Xie and Fatty disregarded everything else and climbed ashore.
Aning had already gone ashore and was looking at the tomb chamber with a flashlight while they were talking.
Gu Wusi took off his diving suit and put it aside with the oxygen tank.
She said she came to dive, so naturally she didn't bring a bag, unlike the others who had prepared in advance.
"Are you going in? If you go down into the water cave that you came in through, can you come out the same way you came in?"
Now that he's already here, it won't be easy for Gu Wu to leave.
Sure enough, even Wu Xie tentatively spoke up, showing both concern and doubt.
"Getting out probably won't be easy either. There were traps when we came in, and it's dangerous for you to be alone."
He couldn't help but wonder if the person had come in on purpose or if it was a genuine accident.
"So, does that mean I'll be safer with you?" Gu Wusi went along with his words.
“Young lady, it’s dangerous to go in. You’d better go back,” said Baldy Zhang.
After he finished speaking, he didn't care whether Gu Wusi answered or not, and looked around with his flashlight.
"It's dangerous to go in, and it's dangerous to come out. I happen to love adventure, so I'll go in and take a look."
When she said she wanted to go in, Wu Xie hesitated again: "We don't know what kind of mechanisms or anything like that are inside. Do you want to reconsider?"
"Stop talking so much nonsense, you've already said everything, good and bad."
Upon hearing this, the fat man immediately said, "Alright, young comrade, if this young lady wants to go in, let her go in. Why do you care so much? You're not her relative."
Wu Xie didn't speak, but A Ning said, "Once you go in, no one will care whether you live or die. Take care of yourself."
Gu Wusi nodded, crossed his arms, and looked like he wouldn't say anything more.
"Come quick, look! There are footprints here!" Zhang the Bald called to them as he squatted on the ground.
Upon hearing this, everyone stopped discussing the previous topic and went to take a look.
The others all had flashlights, except for Gu Wusi.
She pretended to take her phone out of her pocket and turn on the flashlight.
“This is adipocere.” Wu Xie picked up a bit of the white residue from the footprint, smelled it, and concluded.
Zhang the Bald said, "Have you noticed that these footprints only go out and never come back?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a long earthenware jar by the wall started to shake on its own.
Everyone immediately stood up and pointed their flashlights and guns at that spot.
They all walked forward quietly and slowly.
Gu Wusi maintained her bold persona and strode over to look into the earthenware jar.
There's nothing inside.
The fat man took a deep breath: "Are you just ignorant and fearless, or have you eaten the heart of a bear and the gall of a leopard? Aren't you afraid there might be little zombies inside?"
Gu Wusi raised an eyebrow, looking completely unconcerned.
"I'm naturally brave and fearless. What is a zongzi? It can't be something to eat, can it?"
Judging from her appearance, she's a straightforward young lady, bold, playful, and adventurous.
Wu Xie explained with a smile, "Zongzi are corpses that have turned into zombies, or you could say they are zombies."
"Zombies? Did you bring glutinous rice and black dog blood?"
Upon hearing this, the fat man chuckled mischievously, "We don't have those, but we can have black donkey hooves."
As they were talking, the earthenware jar suddenly fell to the ground and rolled toward a door.
The fat man looked at it and wanted to shoot: "This is too weird, should I give it a dart first?"
Wu Xie stopped him: "Hey, this earthenware jar is from the Yuan and Ming dynasties. If it's damaged, it's a cultural relic that's lost."
