Chapter 289: Entering the Tomb

Afterward, Lin Feng walked forward and used one foot to crush the Desert Eagle in Li Daqing's corpse's hand, along with the hand itself, into a mangled mess.

Although there were no bullets left in this gun, the thing was a dangerous item after all; if it fell into someone else's hands, it might trigger another bloody incident, so it was better to destroy it.

"Lin Feng, you are so amazing!"

"Mr. Lin, you are too strong; even bullets can't kill you..."

Hu Lili and Cheng Jiajia ran over together, throwing themselves heavily into Lin Feng's arms like two swallows.

However, Lin Feng immediately pushed them both away.

"Put your clothes on first," Lin Feng reminded them.

Hu Lili and Cheng Jiajia looked down and only then realized they were still naked, so they both let out shy screams.

Afterward, they hurriedly returned to their original spot, picked up the clothes they had just taken off, and scrambled to put them on.

After dressing properly, the two women finally calmed down a little.

"Lin Feng, what should we do about Lv Peng, Yang Fan, and this corpse of Li Daqing?" Hu Lili asked.

"Don't worry about it for now; we still have important business to attend to. After we go down the mountain, I'll just notify the Police Department," Lin Feng said.

"Won't we be suspects?" Hu Lili asked with some worry.

"With me here, what are you afraid of?" Lin Feng said dismissively.

Without lingering here any longer, Lin Feng led the two women to continue up the mountain.

Because two people had died, there was no need for so much luggage, so Lin Feng simply didn't take Lv Peng and Yang Fan's backpacks, only carrying Hu Lili and Cheng Jiajia's backpacks on his back.

The rest of the journey did not encounter any unexpected events, and at noon, Lin Feng stopped in front of a large rock.

This was not yet the mountaintop, but Hu Lili said this was the entrance to that ancient tomb.

"Are you sure it's here?" Lin Feng asked.

"I'm certain. My family's bodyguard said it very clearly: as long as you push this large rock away, you can see the entrance," Hu Lili said very firmly.

Lin Feng then put down the backpacks, pressed both hands onto the rock that was taller than a person, and used a little force to push it away slowly.

This large rock weighed at least several tons; in the process of being pushed, it scraped a deep groove into the ground, and the surrounding soil was all pushed aside.

"What great strength..." Cheng Jiajia couldn't help but exclaim.

"This is the strength of a Martial Artist," Hu Lili said.

"It is the strength of a high-level Martial Artist; ordinary Martial Artists don't have such great strength," Lin Feng corrected.

Hu Lili then took the opportunity to ask: "Then, Mr. Lin, what level of Martial Artist are you? A Martial Venerable? Or..."

"That is not important."

Lin Feng said, and patted the dirt off his hands.

The rock had been pushed completely aside, and a half-meter-high cave entrance appeared before them.

Moreover, this cave was bottomless and pitch-black inside; Hu Lili took out her phone and turned on the flashlight to shine it inside a few times, but she didn't see anything.

The light from the phone's flashlight seemed to be completely swallowed by the thick darkness, and a sense of ominousness emanated from the depths of the cave.

"Do... do we really have to go in?" Cheng Jiajia asked, very afraid.

"You can wait outside for me and Lili," Lin Feng said.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Jiajia immediately panicked.

She hurriedly grabbed Lin Feng's arm and said: "I'll go in with you; don't leave me behind..."

Having experienced what just happened, Cheng Jiajia already knew that only by staying by Lin Feng's side was it safest; since that was the case, she certainly wouldn't be willing to separate from Lin Feng.

Hu Lili laughed: "Lin Feng is teasing you; don't be so easily frightened."

"You shouldn't make jokes like that," Cheng Jiajia said aggrievedly, her eyes even turning slightly red.

"Don't waste any more time. We'll go in and take a look now. You two follow behind me; without my permission, don't run around, and don't shout or scream," Lin Feng said.

"Definitely," Hu Lili nodded vigorously.

Although Cheng Jiajia didn't say much, she nodded heavily, the expression on her face just as determined.

Lin Feng then carried the two heavy backpacks and led the two women into the cave.

To their surprise, just as they entered the cave, the large rock at the entrance actually rumbled back into its original position!

At the same time, Lin Feng also felt a surge of Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth.

"How did that rock move by itself?" Cheng Jiajia asked in terror.

"Could there be some mechanism inside?" Hu Lili also said.

Lin Feng said: "This ancient tomb is indeed not simple. The entire tomb is located within an array, and this array is still continuously gathering Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth to maintain its own operation... It seems the owner of this tomb was indeed a Martial Artist, a predecessor from ancient times."

Hearing Lin Feng's words, a look of yearning appeared in Hu Lili's eyes.

Cheng Jiajia, however, was even more afraid.

"Doesn't that mean this ancient tomb will be very dangerous?" Cheng Jiajia said with a trembling voice.

"With me protecting you, you don't need to be afraid," Lin Feng said.

Lin Feng looked at Hu Lili again and said: "It's too dark here; the light from the phone's flashlight alone isn't enough. Didn't you bring very professional lighting equipment? Take it out and use it."

Hu Lili then used the light from her phone to unzip her backpack and took out two very exquisite and compact, yet heavy, wolf-eye flashlights.

"I bought these through a special channel; they were very expensive, and they're even waterproof..."

Lin Feng interrupted Hu Lili: "Stop chattering, give one to Cheng Jiajia."

"Don't you want one?" Hu Lili asked.

"I don't need one," Lin Feng said.

Lin Feng's Dragon Pupil could even capture True Qi and Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth; mere darkness was nothing to him at all.

There were three wolf-eye flashlights in total; Hu Lili and Cheng Jiajia each took one, leaving one as a spare.

Moreover, there were several spare batteries in the backpack, so there was no need to worry about the flashlights' battery life at all; lasting for a dozen hours or so would be no problem.

At this very moment, with the illumination from the wolf-eye flashlight, the darkness before them was finally dispelled.

Hu Lili and Cheng Jiajia no longer stumbled as they walked, following Lin Feng step by step.

Suddenly, Hu Lili let out a cry of alarm.

"What is it?" Lin Feng asked.

"There are human bones over there..." Hu Lili said, pointing diagonally ahead.

Lin Feng glanced at the bones there and said indifferently, "What is there to fear about the dead? You should be worried about the living."

"The living? There are no other living people here besides us," Hu Lili asked in confusion.

"That is not necessarily true."

As he spoke, Lin Feng pointed to a scratch on the cave wall nearby.

It could be seen that the surrounding cave walls had grown a layer of green moss in the damp environment, which felt slimy to the touch.

However, there was a scratch there, and the scratch had scraped the moss away, so it looked somewhat jarring.
