Chapter 195: Sweeping the Emperor's Tomb

~9 min read 1,631 words

Thump! Thump!

In the gloomy tomb chamber, Xu Que's dull footsteps echoed.

More than a dozen souls floated in front, leading the way for Xu Que together.

They floated carefully in front, keeping their speed cautious at all times, for fear of accidentally offending this unreasonable Senior and getting beaten again!

Xu Que was definitely more reasonable than that old beggar; he wouldn't torment these souls if there was nothing to do, his gaze constantly examining the tomb chambers he passed.

Many tomb chambers were empty, without even the simplest murals.

Xu Que also muttered a complaint about this point.

As a result, Golden Fat said: "Many years ago, there were actually murals on these tomb walls, but later, in the long years, they all ran out."

"What? Ran out?" Xu Que was instantly stunned. Murals can grow legs and run? Are you kidding me?

"Really, it seems that on the day the tomb door was opened for the last time, I saw them turn into a wisp of rosy light and disappear into the air!"

"Damn idiot, have you ever studied chemistry! That's called oxidation; the pigments were volatilized!" Xu Que said with disdain.

Golden Fat was stunned for a long time. Although he didn't understand what oxidation was at all, he still hurriedly nodded and said: "Senior is truly learned and talented!"

The other souls also hurriedly agreed: "Senior is talented!"

"Low profile, pay attention to low profile. I am not the kind of person who likes to listen to slander. Hurry up and lead the way!"

Xu Que said with a straight face, but he was happy in his heart. This group of souls was really easy to fool, and they were obedient. If they could be brought out, they would be quite suitable to be cultivated as little brothers!

Thinking while walking, not long after, Xu Que finally walked out of the tomb chambers and entered a gloomy tomb passage.

On both sides of the entrance to the tomb passage, there was a statue, two ferocious-looking demon beasts, but they looked lifelike, their eyes flashing with fierce light, as if they could eat people.

And in this tomb passage, it was surprisingly spacious, with a long ditch left on the stone walls on the left and right, just reaching the waist position.

But the ditch was already dried up, with nothing in it.

"Seeking dragons and dividing gold, look at the winding mountains; one winding is one pass. If the pass has eight dangers, it doesn't form the Yin-Yang Eight Trigrams shape!"

Xu Que saw that something was wrong, recited the formula silently, and stepped forward.

"Senior, be careful!"

At this moment, Golden Fat hurriedly stopped him and advised: "You can't go over here. Many of our companions wanted to pass through here before, but they all ended up with their souls scattered. There is a restriction in this passage that seems to be able to obliterate all Divine Souls."

"Nonsense, this is a restriction set up with a Feng Shui formation. You definitely can't pass through directly, but for me, it's easy!" Xu Que said faintly.

The many souls were instantly shocked, all looking at Xu Que, incredibly curious. Could Senior really break this formation?

Xu Que didn't talk nonsense either, summoned the system, and spent only one Acting Cool Point to exchange for two kinds of water!

Zhang Qiling's professional skills, besides killing zombies, also included a set of methods for breaking mechanisms. For example, the restriction set up by this Feng Shui formation was really simple.

So after Xu Que saw through it at a glance, he exchanged for some ordinary river water and some ordinary well water from the system, and poured them into the dry ditches on the walls of the tomb passage respectively!

Until both ditches were filled, the tomb passage suddenly shook.

"Boom!"

A slight muffled sound, as if a stream of light flashed past everyone's eyes, and then disappeared without a trace.

"Alright, let's go!"

Xu Que smiled faintly and stepped into the tomb passage.

The souls were instantly terrified and opened their mouths to stop him.

However, Xu Que was safe and sound, walked straight to the middle of the tomb passage, and then turned around and said: "What are you stunned for? Hurry up and come over!"

The dozen souls hesitated, clearly still worried.

"Let's go in. Being killed by the restriction is definitely more painless than being beaten to death!" Golden Fat was quite clear-headed at this time, so he took a bold step forward, successfully entered the tomb passage, and the result was indeed safe and sound.

The rest of the souls were instantly shocked, and Golden Fat was also dumbfounded. It was actually fine!

"Senior, you are too amazing. How did you do this?" The souls all looked at Xu Que.

Xu Que smiled unfathomably: "It's very simple. Put well water on one side and river water on the other. That is, well water does not offend river water!"

"Hiss!"

The souls instantly gasped, not surprised by Xu Que's wisdom, but surprised by how low their own IQ was!

Having stayed in the ancient tomb for so many years, they didn't even think of this point.

But even if they thought of it, they wouldn't ask. There was underground river water in the ancient tomb, but there was no well water, unless they dug a well hard!

Xu Que also successfully obtained Acting Cool Points. Although it wasn't much, it was better than nothing.

The group set off again.

But in the area after the tomb passage, these souls didn't know the way. They had never been to this place before, and it was really very strange.

Xu Que spread out the map and found that the area after the tomb passage was the true main tomb.

Moreover, it seemed that there were many funerary objects, all in this area.

Xu Que's eyes instantly lit up: "Golden Big Fat, Golden Second Fat, and Golden Fat Fat Fat, hurry up, lead the way and follow me!"

Waving his hand, it became Xu Que leading the souls, marching toward the first tomb chamber.

Bypassing the corridor and just stepping into the entrance, the spacious tomb chamber was instantly bright.

On the ground lay countless Dharma artifacts, piled up like a mountain, like mountains of gold and silver, flashing with light, brilliant and lingering!

And most of these Dharma artifacts were of the two-star and three-star level, and there was even a four-star flying sword, golden light shining, and from time to time, wisps of flame flowed across the blade!

"I'm rich!"

Xu Que was overjoyed, opened the system storage space, and moved everything in.

In the past, he had also wiped out people's entire families, but he didn't look down on those things at all; only what the system exchanged was awesome.

But now these were funerary objects from the Imperial Mausoleum. Things buried with the emperor were definitely not ordinary items, so Xu Que naturally wouldn't miss them, and collected them all!

Anyway, keep the good ones to use, and sell the rest, or let the system recycle them and exchange them for essence. No matter how you calculate it, it's not a loss!

The souls were not interested in these things, following blankly behind, watching Xu Que empty the place!

And then, under Xu Que's leadership, they marched toward the second tomb chamber.

And this time, the tomb chamber was filled with treasure chests. The chests were not closed tightly, and inside were all gold, silver, and jewels, overflowing from the chests.

And in the corner, there were all wooden shelves, on which were placed countless bottles of pills!

One-star, two-star, three-star, all were there, but there were only a few bottles of four-star level, and the handwriting on them was already blurred, making it impossible to distinguish what medicine it was.

Xu Que didn't care either, collecting them all into the system storage space without checking at all!

After all, things like sweeping and raiding a house must focus on three words—"fast, accurate, ruthless"!

Only then will you feel cool, feel fierce, and feel that you are cute!

Not to mention that now he was raiding the tomb of the Fire Royal Family!

So after emptying the second tomb chamber, Xu Que went to the third tomb chamber.

This time it was all bookshelves, but most of what was placed on them were relatively ordinary ancient books, with very few techniques.

Xu Que also knew that the real good things should all be in the Imperial Palace, but there were also some rare treasures that were buried with the emperor's coffin and would not be placed in these tomb chambers, so he didn't find it strange!

He waved his hand, collected those techniques, and went to the next tomb chamber again.

But when he arrived outside this tomb chamber, Xu Que clearly found that the space here had become more spacious.

And in the tomb chamber, it was piled with dense coffins!

The souls were instantly terrified when they saw this.

"My God, this... this place, how many people were buried here?"

"We should have also been buried here in our past lives; it's too pitiful!"

"Maybe our physical bodies don't even have coffins!"

Xu Que also stopped at the entrance, somewhat stunned, looked at the dozen souls behind him faintly, and shook his head: "What you said is not the point."

"Ah?" The dozen souls were all stunned.

Xu Que ignored them, his heart moved, and he summoned the system and asked: "System, do you recycle coffins?"
