Chapter 390: A Secret Chamber Above Another Secret Chamber
"Yao Yao, I'm giving you trouble again."
In the little woods, Lin Feng embraced Qi Yao and whispered.
"Don't hold me! I haven't even changed my clothes! They're all dirty."
Qi Yao raised both hands.
She had just examined the corpse that had been dug out of the grave.
She still wore the plastic gloves that had just touched the bones.
With her hands raised, she couldn't resist and could only let Lin Feng hold her.
There were many people around; it was so embarrassing.
Lin Feng didn't care.
"Professor Qi, let's go back!"
Someone shouted from outside.
The voice carried a teasing tone.
Only then did Lin Feng release Qi Yao.
"Go back early; it's getting dark soon..."
Qi Yao, her face flushed with shame, glanced at the sky and reminded Lin Feng.
She knew Lin Feng was timid.
Lin Feng nodded, "We'll go to your place for steak tonight."
Qi Yao shook her head, "I have to work overtime until late tonight, I'm not going back, I'm leaving!"
After speaking, she waved at Lin Feng and left together with her colleagues.
The suspect's and victim's statements matched, so the case was essentially solved perfectly.
Team Captain didn't leave anyone at the scene to guard.
Soon, everyone was withdrawn, leaving only Lin Feng and Liu Cangyun.
"Instructor, aren't we leaving yet?"
Liu Cangyun noticed that Lin Feng's expression was a bit off.
Lin Feng smiled, "There's something off about this tomb; we'll stay here tonight."
As he spoke, he picked up his phone and called Zhao Xiaoyang.
After Zhao Xiaoyang answered, he immediately summoned Liu Erwa, Duan Fei, and Cai Hao.
Then they began preparing equipment, aiming to arrive before nightfall.
Lin Feng suddenly felt this area was somewhat inauspicious.
It used to be a grave, then an execution ground, and now another major case with dead bodies.
Staying here, the surrounding air felt chilly.
He quickly pulled Liu Cangyun into the car.
He drove the car to a small grove not far from the training camp.
"Cangyun, we aren't going back tonight, let's make dinner first. What do you want to eat?"
Lin Feng opened the car's built-in cooler, took out packaged lamb skewers, and asked.
Do we even need to ask?
Of course it's grilled skewers!
"I want grilled skewers!"
Liu Cangyun replied.
Lin Feng smiled faintly, opened the trunk again, and took out a grill, charcoal, a plastic mat, and other items.
He usually keeps these things in the trunk.
Just like an angler's car, whose trunk is always stocked with fishing gear.
A skewer was quickly grilled.
Liu Cangyun was already drooling with craving.
Even though they've been together every day lately.
They hadn't had Lin Feng's grilled skewers in a long time.
Directly shoved it into the mouth.
Sss~
Liu Cangyun took a deep breath.
So hot!
"Take it slowly!"
Lin Feng reminded.
Liu Cangyun, while eating the skewer, said, "Instructor, didn't I tell you last time that I've been practicing?"
"Hmm!"
Lin Feng nodded.
"Today I'll let you, Instructor, see for yourself!"
When night was about to fall.
Lights appeared on the mountain road leading outside.
Then the sound of an engine followed.
Then a white Land Rover appeared before Liu Cangyun's eyes.
After eating and drinking his fill, Lin Feng rested in the car.
Because there were still things to do in the evening, he needed to stay alert.
Zhao Xiaoyang, driving the car, saw Liu Cangyun waving and stopped the car.
Liu Cangyun turned around, went into the small grove, knocked on the car window, and woke Lin Feng.
Then he opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat.
Lin Feng rubbed his face and became awake.
Then he drove the car out of the grove, led the way ahead, and drove straight into the tomb chamber that had previously been used as a warehouse.
After getting out of the car, Lin Feng led Zhao Xiaoyang and the others through the secret passage into the place where the three tomb robbers had imprisoned women.
The diesel generator was still there.
"How can there still be such a place?"
Zhao Xiaoyang looked astonished.
Lin Feng recounted to Zhao Xiaoyang and the others everything that had happened that afternoon.
"These three guys are really..."
Zhao Xiaoyang didn't even know how to describe those three tomb robbers.
"Brother Feng, is there any treasure here?"
Cai Hao spoke up.
Lin Feng laughed and said, "I don't know either; let's try to look for it first!"
When Lin Feng was resting in the car, he wasn't sleeping.
Rather, he was constructing a design diagram of a large tomb in his mind.
Overall, the structure of this tomb seems somewhat off.
At least this secret chamber where the three tomb robbers imprisoned women is somewhat strange.
He picked up the iron hammer that Zhao Xiaoyang had brought, turned on the flashlight, and kept striking the stone walls of the secret chamber.
After striking all around, he found nothing.
Finally, he had Zhao Xiaoyang and Liu Erwa and the others use a tool similar to a Luoyang shovel to dig underground, boring several meters, but they also found nothing abnormal in the soil.
After all that effort, it was already late at night.
"Wrong! There must be something off……"
Lin Feng muttered to himself.
Then he again simulated the tomb's shape in his mind.
Suddenly a flash of inspiration struck him; he raised his head and looked toward the ceiling.
He shone the flashlight upward; the ceiling showed nothing unusual, just ordinary rock.
Lin Feng, however, laughed and said, "So that's how it is!"
"Brother, what did you find?"
Zhao Xiaoyang asked curiously.
Lin Feng laughed and said, "Have you noticed that this secret chamber is more than a meter lower than the outside terrain, and its height is also about a meter lower than outside.
Moreover, the outside rock is several meters thick, so there is at least a space of about two meters above."
"What are we waiting for? Let's dig!"
Zhao Xiaoyang said excitedly.
Lin Feng shook his head, "We can't dig yet; what if there's a layer of alum on the ceiling?"
Zhao Xiaoyang shivered.
If that were the case, when they dug below and broke through, a large amount of alum that could corrode flesh and blood would pour down.
Even if they didn't die, they'd be disfigured!
Lin Feng said calmly, "Let's wait a bit; we'll talk after the archaeological team comes by."
Liu Erwa looked worried and said, "If they come, won't they discover the chamber above?"
Lin Feng curled the corner of his mouth, "I believe they won't find it! Actually, even if they did, it wouldn't matter; I'm just curious what's there.
Actually, the space above isn't large; if it were filled with gold, that weight would have already caused this place to collapse.
With that batch of gold from the Amazon Rainforest, the treasure here, frankly speaking, Lin Feng really doesn't have much expectation in terms of value.
The reason he's excited is because he gets a feeling of matching wits with the ancients."
July 5, morning nine o'clock.
Zhao Xiaoyang took Liu Erwa and the others, drove the car, and hid in the small grove.
Not long after, two sedans and a small truck arrived.
They were members of the archaeological team, about twenty or more people.
Leading them was a middle-aged man, accompanied by four police officers.
Upon seeing Lin Feng, Liu Cangyun beside him, a knight, and a tent, the middle-aged man shook his head.
Young people these days really know how to have fun.
Instead of staying in a perfectly good house, they insist on running out to the wilderness.
Really, morals are deteriorating!
Ignoring Lin Feng, the middle-aged man gathered the team members and gave them instructions.
Then the archaeological team members dispersed and conducted a second survey of this ancient tomb.
