Chapter 1326: Just Arrived

Chapter 1325 – Just Arrived

These few days were also the gathering dates for the tomb raiding group. There was no need to rush too much.

“It’s fine- let’s go over directly. We’re all practitioners. We don’t need to rest, really,” Lin Yi said flatly.

Lingshan nodded- she forgot that they were all practitioners, and was still using the wrong mindset. It was natural that she’d suggest for normal people to rest.

“We’ll keep going then. Almost there!” Lingshan said.

The roads became harder and harder to drive on, and the signs of life were all but gone. Nobody from the village would come here, too, since they were all mountain veins with mostly stone and rock walls. No wild fruits, no animals- no one would come.

“The view here is pretty good though- good picture-taking spot,” Lin Yi said with a thought.

“It’s a good environment, but with topography here, it’s hard to make it a tourist spot. The village here is too poor, too, with lacking fundamental facilities. Making a tourist spot here would require too much money, and no investor would make that big a risk,” Yutian said.

Lin Yi didn’t know about business stuff like that, so he had no comment.

The car went on, and the roads got harder still, with even fewer trees. Other than just rock and mountains, there was nothing else! The view was fresh and pretty to the eyes when they first got here, but after a while, it became common.

Yutian was right- this wasn’t a good place for tourism. It was too uniform- people who came here once wouldn’t come again.

“Almost there… We need to put our masks on now! The tent in front is probably the graverobber group. We need to be careful and alert. Don’t let them spot anything wrong,” Lingshan reminded them.

“No need to be alert. If you’re too alert, they’ll suspect something. Just act normal,” Lin Yi said, “The couple is usually very tyrannical and cocky, that’s mentioned in the files. Everyone in the industry knows that. They wouldn’t be alert.”

“You’re right- I thought too much into it!” Lingshan said, taking the lesson.

With that, Lin Yi and Lingshan and Yutian put on their masks- these were masks they took from the graverobber couple. They didn’t even need to make their own.

The car got close, and there were many rows of cars parked not far from the tent. They were all range rovers, with bigger truck types for carrying loads.

There were a lot of men these graverobbers used, unlike the couple who went alone!

After Yutian’s car got closer, a few big men with guns came out of the tent. A smaller and skinnier man waved a dismissive hand behind them and gestured for Yutian to stop.

“What are you doing here? This is military operation grounds. You can’t pass!” The skinny man said flatly.

A normal tourist would believe those words, especially with the pressure of those guns- they would leave right away. But Yutian came with a specific purpose.

“Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth. There’s Wood their upfront, right?” Yutian said flatly.

This was the newest code for the industry- they got this info from Bojia.

“Oh?” The skinny man’s face didn’t change, “The Sky King covers the Earth Tiger!”

The sentence earlier was a code as well, and it was a confirmation code. If Yutian were to fail to reply to this code, then he’d wave his hand- and the men would shoot right away!

After all, if one gave the first code and couldn’t respond to the confirmation code, it meant that they weren’t actually part of this team, trying to muddle in and get some benefits. He wouldn’t let people like that off easy.

“Glory to Great King Li!” Yutian said without pause. This code was found in the work journal of the couple- even Bojia didn’t know about this! The couple perhaps were worried that they’d forget this confirmation code when the time came.

Yutian and Lingshan felt a bit amused when they first saw the code. This was a popular catchphrase in China- people would respond to Sky King covers the Earth Tiger with the usual response of Treasure Tower trumps the River Monster, but if they really were to say that out of habit, then it’d be a big screw up.

“So, friend, which group are you from?” The skinny man’s face was a lot more friendly now, confirming that these were on the same side.

“Old Hei, you can’t even recognize my damn face now? Can you cut your crap? You want me to get this car on your face?” Lin Yi opened the door, pissed off before Yutian could even speak!

According to Yutian’s information, this Old Hei was the boss of the Red Treasure Tower Tomb Robbers, the one who discovered the tomb this time.

The couple’s temperament was a bit weird- their skills were high, and they usually looked down on their peers. People usually didn’t like them, but with a high-level tomb like this, they had to invite them.

And so Lin Yi used that personality- he got out the car and started scolding.

“You still have that temper, huh? I just want to be safe. The fewer people here, the bigger our benefits! Who knows if other people caught the news and came here to take their share?” The man called Old Hei shook his head helplessly, pissed- though he couldn’t do a thing.

“Hmph!” Lin Yi hmphed coldly. “Where are the others? Are they all here? My time is limited!”

“Keng Bro and Hao Ye, and Zhan Musi are all here. They’re resting over there!” The skinny man said.

“All here? When are we starting?” Lin Yi asked. There were five groups in the details- one of those was his group, the graverobber couple. The other four were all there.

“Waiting on a guest. Without Liu Bojia, we had to hire a backup- the tomb here is too dangerous; even your help isn’t a guaranteed success. I had to be careful,” The man said.
