She said softly, "Xiao Fei, go with your mother."
Qin Fei was startled, and her mother pulled her over.
Hailan smiled, ignoring the shock and whispers around her, and suddenly reached out to unzip her work clothes.
Text 005 Lin Yu and Hai Lan
There are inner pockets in the work clothes, so that the staff can keep their valuables close to their bodies. She took out a handkerchief from the inner pocket and pressed it hard on the palm of her hand to stop the bleeding. The shovel improved by the doctor is stronger and sharper. If she presses harder, the whole palm will be pierced.
The handkerchief was soaked, so she crumpled it and threw it on the ground. She picked up the shovel on the ground with her injured hand, and reached in front of Xiao Xia with her other hand and said calmly, "Driver Xia, the tool kit, thank you."
The members of the archaeological team were stunned. A few of them were still whispering, but suddenly they fell silent.
Lin Yuncong sneered, showing his anger. He was about to speak, but saw Qin Baichuan frowning and looking at Lin and Qin. Lin Siwei was staring at Qin Ge in despair, while Qin Ge was staring at the handkerchief on the ground.
Lin Siwei knew that the handkerchief meant something to Qin Ge. It belonged to Qin Ge's first love. The girl was going to Nepal for five years. She and her brother were also at the airport. The girl stared at Qin Ge with tears on her face and said, "Wait for me to come back."
She didn't know why the girl went to Nepal for five years, but she knew that although Qin Ge didn't say anything at the time, he loved the woman deeply. Her brother once told her that Qin Ge had a tattoo on his chest with the word "Yu".
The girl had the same surname as her, Lin and given name, Yu.
She thought that after the girl left, Qin Ge would never love anyone again. But Qin Ge later had many women. She thought it was transference, but none of those women were like the girl, including Hai Lan.
She had never understood Qin Ge, and she had never thought that the handkerchief would be in Hai Lan's hands. Did Qin Ge give it to Hai Lan? But how could that be possible! Then, did Hai Lan steal it herself? But it didn't seem possible, as Qin Ge didn't show any shock on his face. She only knew that Qin Ge was angry at the moment.
Qin Ge was a very secretive person. He had been very close to several prostitutes with the same background, but he pulled them down one by one before the promotion. Afterwards, she heard the conversation between her father and Qin Ge.
Lin Yuncong laughed and said, Qin Ge, you are such a sinister boy.
Qin Ge was silent for a while before saying, there are quite a few people, but there is only one chair.
When he spoke, there was a hint of indifference in the corners of his eyes.
This man never showed his emotions, so if people could sense his anger, it only meant that he was extremely angry.
Her heart tightened and she suddenly panicked. She didn't know who Qin Ge was angry at, Lin Yu or Hai Lan
"Right here."
Following a loud shout, dozens of people rushed in from the passage behind. It was a long and narrow passage connecting the eighteenth and nineteenth tomb chambers.
Everyone was shocked to see that the people coming were all tall and strong men with fierce looks. The most frightening thing was that they all had guns in their hands. They were two men, one old and one young, with ordinary looks but extremely sharp eyes, staring at the people in front of Tomb No. 19.
Hai Lan felt a pang of fear in her heart. She knew clearly that this group of people were tomb robbers, and they were no ordinary people.
Text 006 Tomb Chamber 19 (1)
To enter the 19th tomb chamber, one must pass through the 18th tomb chamber. Although the migrant workers were temporarily evacuated today because Lin Yuncong and others came secretly, the deputy captain of the archaeological team and several elderly experts stayed in the 18th tomb chamber to do further excavation work. Lin Yuncong also managed to transfer the local government's excavation supervisors through his connections, but no matter how secret it was, Lin Yuncong and Qin Baichuan still had one or two personal guards with them, who stayed in the 18th tomb chamber to take care of it.
In this way, the total number of people in the 18th tomb chamber must be no less than ten. Although there is a passageway separating them, if there is a little noise over there, this side will definitely hear it. In other words, this group of people dealt with the people outside in an instant without making any noise. How could such skills be ordinary thieves
Stealing national cultural relics is not a small crime, but these people have no decoration on their faces. The more she thought about it, the more shocked she became. She was afraid that these people would kill people to silence them.
Whatever she could think of, Qin Ge must have thought of as well.
Looking in the direction of Qin Ge, I saw that he had pushed Lin Siwei to Qin Fei's side, asked Xiao Xia to protect them and Qin Baichuan and his wife, and then he quickly walked to stand in front of Lin Yuncong.
The old man saw the clue and glanced at Qin Ge, "Young man, if you don't want to become a beehive, don't play any tricks!"
Qin Ge frowned slightly and said nothing, but Lin Yuncong couldn't help but speak out, "Do you know who we are? If you abandon your weapons and leave immediately, I won't pursue the matter."
Qin Ge's face changed, and there was a deafening sound in the air. Lin Yuncong roared in shock. There was a cloud of light smoke on the ground and metal bursting out violently. It turned out that the young man next to the old man fired two shots at him. If Qin Ge had not seen the opportunity quickly and pulled him away with one hand, Lin Yuncong would have been covered in blood.
Lin's wife was horrified. Lin Siwei was startled and rushed over, "Dad."
The old man was originally looking at Dr. Ai Wei, but now he glanced at Qin Ge again, "What a great skill."
He looked at Lin Yuncong coldly, "Of course I know who you are. Mr. Lin, do you know who we are? We are not afraid of death!"
Lin Yuncong was shocked and his expression changed immediately.
"Oh, are you really not afraid of death?"
Qin Ge suddenly laughed, the old man's eyes turned fierce and he pointed the gun at him.
Lin Si leaned against Qin Ge's side, trembling. Hai's heart suddenly became anxious and dark, but he heard Qin Ge say, "Are you afraid of death? I might as well guess what you are thinking. This royal tomb is very deep and has not been excavated yet. There are certainly priceless treasures inside, but who knows what else is hidden? It's not a bad thing to have someone walking ahead to explore the way. This is probably why you didn't order us to be killed immediately. One more person to explore the way will make it safer."
The old man chuckled, his eyes were fierce, but also somewhat admiring.
Everyone was still immersed in the aftermath of the gunshots. After hearing what Qin Ge said and seeing the old man's expression, they all understood that Qin Ge had guessed the bandit's idea. They couldn't help but feel happy and horrified. They were happy that their lives were not in danger for the time being, but they were shocked that after entering the tomb of King Dongling, they still couldn't escape death.
Text 007 Tomb Chamber 19 (2)
Hai Lan stared at Qin Ge closely, she understood what he meant by what he just said!
In addition to relying on the profound historical knowledge of the doctor to break into the tomb, the old bandit had the intention to kill everyone else present, but he was worried that there might be a vicious and powerful trap in the tomb, and was hesitating whether to let them survive to be the leader to resist the trap. As Qin Ge said, apart from the treasure, no one knows what other terrible things are in the tomb! Qin Ge is best at mind games, and this remark made the old bandit temporarily give up his murderous intention.
I have always heard that Qin Ge is very skilled in fighting and his marksmanship is amazing. I wonder if he has a gun with him. If it were just him and Xiao Xia, they could retreat into the long and dark passage and back to the 18th tomb chamber. With the help of the terrain there, they might be able to fight these people. Unfortunately, there are too many people on their side who have no ability to resist. Once they get into a fight with the bandits, they will all die under the random gunfire of the bandits!
She knew that Qin Ge must be thinking of a way for everyone to escape. How could she help him? At this critical moment of life and death, what did the grudge between her and him matter? If she could save them, she hoped to save everyone. If not, she hoped that he, the doctor and Qin Fei could survive.
Several students supported the doctor and stood near the tomb door. The old bandit walked in front of the doctor and forced him to open the tomb door, but the doctor refused and muttered, "This is the country's property. You can't do this."
The young man sneered, pointed his gun upwards and fired a blank shot. Everyone was scared and scattered, and the doctor fell to the ground. He grabbed a student and forced him to open the door. The boy trembled like a sieve and said that there was a mechanism on the door and only the doctor could open it.
The old man stared at the doctor fiercely and said, "If you keep talking back, I'll put the next bullet in your mouth."
Hai Lan didn't think much about it, ran over to help the doctor up, and stood sideways in front of him.
The doctor held her hand tightly and looked at the tomb door tremblingly. The bandits were startled and looked at the tomb door. They saw that the tomb door was made of a huge jade stone, and it was engraved with sacrificial texts similar to seal script. In the center of the sacrificial text was a huge copper compass engraved with the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches.
Unlike ordinary compasses, the compass has three pointers instead of one. In addition, the marks of the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches are all in the shape of grooves, which means that when the pointers rotate, they will be embedded in the grooves. At this time, all the pointers overlap and are stationary at the six o'clock position.
Seeing that they were so close to the emperor's treasure house, the bandits were ecstatic. Some of them even fired a few blank shots. Then a scream was heard. It turned out that a girl in the archaeological team was hit in the shoulder by a stray bullet.
Everyone was shocked, but the old bandit paid no attention. He stroked the compass and said sternly, "I have robbed countless tombs in my life, so I must be right. This compass is the lock, and this pointer is the key. The ancients used the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches to record time. The three needles indicate the year, month, and day respectively. The pointer must fall into the correct groove and indicate the exact time for the door to open."

Dear friends, thank you for reading and supporting us.
The calendar system of using the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches: The Heavenly Stems are Jia, Yi, Bing, Ding, Wu, Ji, Geng, Xin, Ren, and Gui; The Earthly Branches are Zi, Chou, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu, and Hai. Combinations of them in order, such as "jia zi", can form sixty time units.
Text 008: Infatuation for Love (1)
"Uncle Zhu, what should we do?" Veins popped out on the young man's forehead. "Ten Heavenly Stems and twelve Earthly Branches can be combined into sixty time units. With one pointer, there is only a one-sixtieth chance of being correct. Now there are three pointers. How small is the chance of all three being correct? How long will it take us to try each groove one by one?"
The old bandit rebuked in a deep voice: "How can you try this! There must be a mechanism inside the stone door, filled with mercury or some other corrosive liquid. Once the pointer falls into the wrong groove, everything in the tomb will be dissolved and destroyed."
The young man was startled, and the bandits were stunned for a moment, then immediately quieted down.
The old bandit pointed his gun at Hai Lan, looked at the doctor, and sneered: "Old man, you must have figured out how to unlock this mechanism! Go, go and open the tomb door, otherwise I will kill your students immediately, one by one!"
The doctor burst into tears, looked at Hai Lan, and said in a trembling voice: "Okay, I'll open it. Don't kill her, she is a good child."
Hai Lan was slightly shocked. Yes, the doctor had guessed the arrangement of the compass needle. The time of King Dongling's death was mentioned in the memorial, and this was most likely the time the compass needle needed to indicate. The doctor loved her the most and only told her this guess.
A bold idea suddenly flashed through her mind. She looked at Qin Ge again, but saw that he lowered his head slightly, as if thinking about something. He held Lin Siwei in one hand and tightly grasped a blood-red handkerchief in the other.
She found this handkerchief when she was doing his laundry. When she asked him about it, he said it was his first woman's. She was shocked and didn't ask again, and he didn't say anything. Later, she found that he kept it close to his body. She wanted to ask him about it, but she never did.
On the day of the breakup, she said a nice word and went back to their room to pack up her things. She quietly took the handkerchief out of his coat pocket and secretly took off her card and put it in.
How silly, wasn't it? She didn't know what that woman meant to him. She just stubbornly wanted to leave something in his memory.
However, she only realized now that she did not have this ability.
He stood with Lin Siwei and their family. That was his responsibility. He held the handkerchief tightly in his hand. That was his heart.
Neither responsibility nor heart is there for her.
Neither the white moonlight in my hand nor the red rose in my heart is her.
Finally, she made up her mind and said to the old bandit calmly, "The doctor told me how to open this lock. Let me open it. There may be some trap inside the door. Since I am his student, I should be the first to deal with it if there is any trap."
For a moment, everyone looked at her.
Qin Ge glanced at her lightly, but she avoided his gaze. She saw the shocked and jealous looks on the faces of the people in the archaeological team. They were wondering if the Doctor was partial to her and told her how to unlock the door
The old bandit agreed immediately. After entering the cemetery, he would still have to rely on the doctor, so this suggestion was of course a good one!
The young man and a bandit grabbed the old doctor like a chicken. The doctor choked up and looked at his student.
