That afternoon, Wang Kai, Haibin and I drove a police car towards the cave where the accident happened. We drove directly onto the highway, drove on the highway for a while and then turned into a road section marked as under construction. There were three police cars blocking the entrance to this road. Haibin stuck his head out and said a few words to the police, and they gave way. Then the car continued to drive inside. This section of the road had been repaired, and we encountered five or six checkpoints set up by the police. I also felt the importance the police station attached to this place. We drove inside for about 40 minutes before we finally arrived at the scene of the accident.

We got off the bus a thousand meters away from the accident site. There were more than a dozen police cars and many tents. It seemed that these police officers were guarding here for a long time. Visit to download txt novels..

Haibin seemed to be quite familiar with the police here. He went up to a policeman in his forties, put his arm around his shoulder, and walked over to me and introduced me, saying, "Wu Jiu, Wang Kai, this is Li Zizheng, Captain Li, the person in charge here now."

"Hello, Captain Li." Wang Kai and I also reached out to shake hands with Li Zizheng. Li Zizheng had a square face and wore a police uniform. He had a stern expression and looked serious. He glanced at me, nodded, and said, "Where is He Long? Why did you replace him with a little guy?"

Haibin sighed and said, "He Long died while on duty this time."

Li Zizheng must have had a good relationship with He Long. When he heard that He Long was dead, he hurriedly asked, "How did he die?"

Haibin briefly explained the matter to Li Zizheng. After hearing that the police station gave him two million yuan in compensation, Li Zizheng nodded and said, "We always laugh at them for having too high a welfare, but in today's society, they are probably the only police officers who deal with danger all day long."

"What's the situation here now? Nothing has changed since we left for a few days." Wang Kai asked expressionlessly.

Li Zizheng's relationship with Wang Kai was probably just average. When he heard what Wang Kai said, his face turned serious again and he said to Wang Kai, "Well, it's nothing serious."

I took this opportunity to observe the cave. This cave is very big. Everyone knows the caves like those on highways. This mountain is not high, only about one hundred meters. The road in front of the cave has also been repaired. It was pitch black in the cave at this time and I couldn't see anything.

"It's 4:30 in the afternoon now. Let's take a break and then secretly enter the cave around 9pm." Haibin looked down at his watch and pointed to a tent and said, "You two can go in and get some sleep now. Li Zizheng and I have some things to do. I'll call you around 8:30pm."

"Okay." I nodded and walked towards the tent. The tent was quite big, not like the tents that hikers bring when they go out to play. This tent was very big, probably about 7 or 8 square meters. There were two bunks on the floor. There was no one else inside at the moment, so I fell on one of the bunks and began to sleep. After a while, Wang Kai also came in to sleep.

"Be careful when you go in. Pay attention. This time your mission is to take out the valuables from the coffin. Don't worry about anything else." At around nine o'clock, Brother Haibin stood in front of Wang Kai and me and gave us instructions.

Wang Kai and I slept for a while and are in good spirits now. We are both wearing two yellow Taoist robes, which were brought by Wang Kai. I am carrying my backpack and listening to Brother Haibin's instructions while using cow's tears to open the path to the underworld. Wang Kai is doing something similar.

This cave, no, it’s not appropriate to describe it as a cave, it should be called a tunnel. This tunnel is quite large. Everyone who has taken a long-distance bus knows the size of highway tunnels.

After waiting for Haibin to talk for a while, Wang Kai and I were ready. Haibin saw that we were ready, so he stopped talking and finally said, "Just be careful."

"Don't worry." I nodded, took out a high-intensity flashlight from my backpack, then took out the Emperor's Sword, and walked in carefully. Wang Kai followed me in.

The cave was very quiet and humid. There was cement floor in the first ten meters, but as we walked further in, the ground was covered with yellow mud and there were many puddles on the ground. Wang Kai and I had no choice but to walk around them one by one.

I found it boring to walk in this tunnel with Wang Kai, so I asked, "Wang Kai, it's been so long since you and He Long came here last time, didn't you find anything?"

Wang Kai paused and asked, "Why do you ask that?"

"I'm just asking."

Wang Kai thought for a moment and said, "I didn't find anything, except that the mercury was a little strange, but I have no idea."

After hearing Wang Kai say this, I stopped asking him and we continued walking inside for about five minutes. My shoes were all wet and covered in mud, and Wang Kai's was almost the same. But we finally reached the end of the tunnel.

At the end of the tunnel was a mud wall, but in the middle of the mud wall there was a large hole two meters wide and three meters high. It was pitch black inside. Wang Kai pointed a strong flashlight at the hole and said, "This is the tomb. Be careful. Although He Long and I didn't encounter any danger the last few times we came here, we can't let our guard down in an ancient tomb like this."

"Okay, I understand." I nodded.

After Wang Kai finished speaking, he stepped into the cave in front of me, and I followed him in. The cave was extremely humid and full of mud. There was a lot of mud falling down from above our heads. Looking at this situation, I was really afraid that the cave would suddenly collapse and bury me alive, but Wang Kai seemed quite calm.

After walking for about twenty seconds, I reached the end and walked out of the cave. I looked towards the ancient tomb and was immediately surprised.

This tomb is very big, it is a round tomb, with a diameter of about four or five hundred meters. There is also a round lake in the middle with a diameter of about one hundred meters. The lake emits silver light, illuminating the entire cave. The ground here is paved with bluestone slabs. There are many strange beasts carved on the edge of the tomb, all of which I have never seen before. Each one looks vivid as if it is about to jump out. The most surprising thing is the top, which is actually a large painting. I looked up and saw that it was a painting with a very ethereal palace on it. This palace is very large and magnificent. There are some faint clouds below the palace. It looks like a heavenly palace floating on the top of the clouds. It looks a bit similar to the palace in Guiguzi’s tomb.
