He wasn't very sure if there were any emperors nearby. After all, it was not convenient to transmit information in ancient times. Maybe there was a small emperor in the local area that was not recorded in history books and was waiting underground for them to dig out.

After all, this place was once considered a land of southern barbarians. Being transferred here to serve as an official can basically be regarded as being demoted.

After looking at the funerary objects in the burial pit, the wood products and a large amount of silk inside were of certain research value. There were also black ashes on the ground, which were probably the previous grains that had been completely weathered.

For tomb robbers, gold, silver and jewelry are the most convenient to cash in, so they will naturally give priority to taking away all valuable things.

It can only be said that people's hearts are not strong enough. They have found the burial pit and have to continue moving forward, which will lead to the end of the group's destruction.

It's a pity that the scarred man has gone crazy, otherwise he really should have kept the scarred man and asked him for specific information about this ancient tomb. They definitely know more than the archaeological team.

Wang Jinpeng looked at the things in the burial pit and whispered to Lin Ran beside him: "Brother Lin, do we want to take these things back?"

"Don't worry about them yet." Lin Ran and the others didn't even bring the jewelry packed by the tomb robbers with them, so naturally they wouldn't take away these burial objects.

The most important thing now is to save one's life.

Judging from the movements along the way, Lin Ran's guess was correct. If he continued walking in this direction, there should be a place connected to the outside world at the end of the underground river.

Lin Ran said to them: "Okay, I think we should be at the exit soon, everyone, stay alert."

In a sense, the tomb robbers entered through the front door.

First enter the burial pit, then the palace.

As for the other parts, they are completely ornaments from the underground world, purely for decoration.

The underground river here must be connected to the outside world.

Knowing that they would soon reach the exit, everyone cheered up.

They only stayed in the ancient tomb for six or seven hours, but they felt like several days, and time passed very slowly.

Especially Wang Jinpeng, who said excitedly: "Great, I already knew that Brother Lin must have a way, let's go quickly!"

After saying that, he picked up the short knife that he snatched from the scarred man and walked in front of the team.

Lin Ran and Liu Jingfeng followed Wang Jinpeng, and Xu Ning walked at the end of the team holding a short knife.

I never thought that the underground world was so large. It was probably an extremely vast natural cave.

It was later excavated and an underground city was built here.

The burial pit only occupies a very small part. An underground river runs through the entire underground world, dividing the two roads going north and south.

In the middle of the underground river, there is a huge palace. The palace has completely blocked the roads in both directions, leaving only narrow and dense jungles on both sides. There may be some monsters inside. Unless absolutely necessary, we will never force it through.

Lin Ran and the others moved forward quietly, because they didn't know where another monster would appear.

Now, they were in the distance of a wooden tower.

This wooden tower is about three meters high. You can feel a warmth coming from the place close to the wooden tower, and it is also accompanied by light.

Wang Jinpeng and the others immediately turned off the lights and told everyone that it was best to stay away from the wooden tower. The wooden tower had its own light, and the temperature could be felt from a distance. There might be strange creatures in the tower.

Sure enough, looking from a distance, you can see some flames flying in the air.

Lin Ran frowned. This underground world is really confusing, and there are many things that cannot be explained by scientific common sense.

His eyesight is very good. Although he is far away, he can still see clearly. What is flying in the air is not a substance like will-o'-the-wisp, but a kind of red-light insect. The light on its body is flashing, so It will feel like a flame is burning.

But the heat on their bodies is obviously not covered.

Lin Ran also noticed that there were several corpses that had turned to ashes under the tower.

I couldn't tell whether they were monsters or tomb robbers. I only knew that they were burned directly after they approached the wooden tower. They were obviously irrational when they approached the tower.

"Tsk, these flaming bugs are scarier than monsters." Wang Jinpeng swallowed. Everyone in his team was so out of breath that they felt as if their hearts would jump out of their throats at any time.

Death is not terrible, but burns are the most painful level.

About a hundred meters away from the tower, they moved forward with the help of weak firelight.

But every step they took, they had to stop and wait.

As long as we can go around 100 meters behind the bureau tower, it will be fine.

This short distance of a few hundred meters seemed so far away to Lin Ran and others.

However, they finally had a close call and bypassed the tower without being discovered by the flying insects.

Lin Ran even opened his collar, and cold sweat was pouring out from inside.

After leaving the strange tower, they continued to move forward. After only a few steps, Wang Jinpeng, who was walking at the front of the team, suddenly felt his feet go weak and almost fell down.

But he, who has always been loud-mouthed, did not complain at this time. Instead, he immediately picked up the flashlight and shined it down.

Because he clearly felt that he had stepped on something.

When he shined a flashlight on it, he was immediately startled.

Because right where the flashlight's light source was, there was a giant reptile.

It looks a bit like a lizard. After being stepped on, it sticks out its long tongue and looks at them.

"Holy shit!" Wang Jinpeng couldn't help but cursed and took two steps back.

Only then did the team members see clearly what Wang Jinpeng had stepped on.

In appearance, some look like giant lizards, but their skin is very smooth and not as rough as a lizard.

And its skin color is exactly the same as the soil on the ground.

The most terrifying thing is that his tongue is as thin and long as a snake, and it even forks at the front end.

Upon seeing the strange creature, they immediately realized the danger.

Wang Jinpeng stood in front of everyone with a knife, ready to attack at any time.

"Be careful!" Lin Ran saw that the monster did not seem to attack them, but took two steps back.

"It's afraid of us." Wang Jinpeng breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he no longer had to fight the monster head-on.

This was good, the monster turned around and crawled away quickly.

"It won't be like the strange frog, running back to find the rescuers." Wang Jinpeng remembered the scene when they first met the strange frog by the river. The strange frog also ran away quickly when it saw them for the first time. He brought his accomplices to surround them.
