After leaving the city, the two headed in the opposite direction from the temple fair.
After walking for twenty miles, they arrived at a desolate wilderness, without a single person in sight.
Xiao Cha pulled the cart deeper into the area, saying as she went:
"When the Wang Family signed the Treaty of Treaty of Shimonoseki, they betrayed their country for personal gain, and many heroes wanted to desecrate their ancestral graves."
A group of people had already dug a tunnel for tomb raiders, but the Wang Family had painstakingly added a three-foot-thick stone slab to their ancestral grave. They were caught by the police when they went to town to buy explosives.
As we walked and talked, we came to a pine-covered hillside.
Xiao Cha took a deep breath and said crisply, "These guys knew their lives were in danger, so they told my dad the location of the tomb raider's tunnel. It's right here."
As the girl spoke, she arrived in front of a crooked, leaning tree.
This is a locust tree, and its unique shape makes it stand out in the pine forest.
Xiao Cha said, "Idiot, use your [Heavenly Eye] to look around this tree."
"OK."
Lu Li activated his Heavenly Eye and quickly pointed to a spot on the ground in front of the tree, saying, "It's hollow underneath."
Xiao Cha went over to check it out, then quickly stuck her hand into the ground and exerted force!
"Rise!"
She lifted a large wooden plank, and as the soil and rocks rolled down, a "robber's hole" was revealed.
The hole is beautifully dug; at first glance, it looks like a well, and it's over 30 meters deep.
At the end of the path were thick stone slabs with obvious chisel marks. It seems that the ancients had tried it and decided that explosives were still necessary.
Now it's time for the "heavy rocket launcher" to make its appearance.
Lu Li took it out and inserted an enormous rocket into his rear end.
Xiao Cha clicked her tongue in amazement. "This head... its power is definitely much greater than yours before!"
"My thing has unparalleled firepower."
Lu Li's gaze sharpened, and he used his mind to fly the rocket launcher to the top of the cave entrance and pulled the trigger.
A 6.2-kilogram armor-piercing rocket roared out!
With a deep, muffled thud, the ground shook three times, and a violent shockwave and flames erupted from the cave entrance.
Xiao Cha exclaimed excitedly, "A big firecracker! Quick, let's see if it exploded!"
"It should be fine." Lu Li peeked out and sure enough, he saw a large hole.
The PF98's 120mm rockets have an armor-piercing capability of 800mm of homogeneous steel and can even destroy defensive fortifications; how could mere stone slabs possibly stop them?
"Let's go down."
Lu Li opened the suitcase, activated his mental power, and sent the metal ball flying down, smashing through the remaining rocks and soil.
After clearing the entrance completely, he made the metal ball float up, rising and falling like an elevator several times to transport the two men and their weapons and equipment down.
~~~~~~~~~~~
After passing through the cave entrance, the two finally entered the mausoleum.
This was a massive underground structure; Lu Li couldn't see the end of it at a glance. But considering this was a supernatural world, it was to be expected.
The ground and walls are paved with neat blue bricks, and there are traces of incense and offerings everywhere, indicating that people often come down to worship.
Xiao Cha spat into her palm and said, "Let's begin!"
The mausoleum is divided into individual burial chambers, where the ancestors of the Wang Family are buried.
We arrived at the closest one first, and as soon as we got there, we smelled the fragrance of nanmu wood. The tomb door was indeed made of nanmu wood.
The two pushed open the door and entered, their expressions changing simultaneously.
In the very center was a coffin, with a child of about six or seven years old sitting around it.
Dressed in colorful robes, lifelike, it was indeed the [Spirit Child] filled with mercury.
Xiao Cha calmly stepped forward, gently picked up the child and moved him to one side, then...
Fuck your mother!
She kicked the coffin so hard it flew out and broke apart, scattering the corpse and burial goods all over the ground.
The corpse wore a crystal hat and a blue official robe. Its withered nostrils twitched, and it suddenly stood up!
With its protruding fangs and claws, and its purplish-black skin, it was indeed a zombie!
The zombies were about to pounce, Lu Li frowned as he said:
"I still can't accept this kind of funeral custom. If it's for guarding the tomb, couldn't they at least add some traps or mechanisms?"
"Mechanical systems will eventually fail, but zombies won't. I'll try out the gun!"
Xiao Cha pulled an M500 revolver from her waist, aimed it at the zombie, and pulled the trigger.
Amidst a deafening roar, the first shot struck the zombie in the chest, blasting a hole large enough to fit an egg inside. The zombie screamed and staggered back a large step.
The second shot hit the forehead, ripping the zombie's skull off, and the monster fell to the ground, motionless.
"What immense power!" Xiao Cha exclaimed repeatedly, looking at the gun in her hand.
Lu Li shone a flashlight forward to search for the treasure, only to find that the item was completely unnecessary.
Xiao Cha can see in the night like a feline, and he also has Heavenly Eye, although it shows images in black and white, is very clear.
So he put the flashlight away and started searching for the books buried with him.
"The book is the same as last time, it's useless."
Lu Li quickly stood up in disappointment, while Xiao Cha excitedly shoveled a pile of jade and silver ingots into a sack, saying:
"Treasure is good too, but we can't exchange everything for Calming Incense. Buying something feels like stealing, and we can't even afford to buy anything big!"
Upon seeing the jade, Lu Li suddenly remembered that it would be useful in the final step of refining the [puppet], which would save him some trouble.
~~~~~~~~~~~
The two went to the second tomb chamber, which had a similar layout.
Xiao Cha still put the child aside and kicked the coffin away.
This zombie was clearly very powerful, freezing in mid-air and landing smoothly like a big cat.
Wearing a suit of armor, he was presumably a martial arts practitioner, and lunged directly at Xiao Cha.
Xiao Cha pulled out a W95 heavy machine gun from behind her back and pulled back the bolt with a "click".
This heavy machine gun was never designed for human use; even without the tripod, it weighs 50 kilograms.
Xiao Cha easily held the weapon in both hands, released the safety, aimed at the zombie that had pounced in front of her, and pulled the trigger.
Amidst the intense noise of the electric jackhammer, flames spewed from the machine gun muzzle, and the air momentarily blurred.
In just one second, 10 12.7mm bullets whistled out of the barrel, easily crushing the zombie and its armor.
The monster exploded into pieces in mid-air, scattering across the ground.
The bullets continued flying, drilling countless large holes in the brick wall behind them.
Xiao Cha stared in disbelief, her voice trembling, "This... such power? Are zombies made of paper?"
She kicked a piece of wreckage hard, the shockwave making her foot go numb!
If you were to use the old shotgun or Children's Rifle to fight this monster, the two of you would have to jump around and struggle for ages.
A heavy machine gun could be used; it would be as simple as moving a finger!
Lu Li was not surprised at all; this was the power that an anti-vehicle automatic weapon should have.
He went forward to search for the treasure, only to discover with dismay that there were no books buried with him!
On the contrary, there was quite a lot of treasure, which Xiao Cha happily stuffed into a sack.
At that moment, terrifying screams echoed throughout the entire Underground Mausoleum!
One zombie after another burst open their coffins and sat up; there were at least 30 of them!
It seems that the two men's previous unrestrained behavior had awakened the ancestors of the Wang Family.
Countless glowing green eyes flickered in the darkness, and the suppressed howls sent chills down one's spine.
Holding a heavy machine gun, Xiao Cha excitedly laughed, "Don't worry about it for a bit, let me handle it myself!"
Lu Li shrugged and said, "Let's hurry up, I'm quite disappointed with this place."
"Don't be discouraged! At worst, we'll raid the Wang Family home!"
Xiao Cha was clearly bursting with confidence.
What the two were unaware of was that not far above them was the Wang Family hall.
This usually deserted place was now filled with prominent members of the Wang Family, discussing the matter of ensuring the eldest son of the third branch of the family would have an heir.
The atmosphere was tense; everyone knew that the battle was over the distribution rights for Ice Soul Powder.
